Your post made me want a cookie. So I walked over to the break area and grabbed a free cookie from there.

You can probably run a ballpark figure for TQ, based on the PCU avg of TQ vs Serenity (since those 500K reflects the numbers that are currently subscribed).
It should correlate closely to the actual per server split which CCP isn't disclosing atm.

Your figure assumes that everyone spends all day every day logged in on one account.
If the average eve player spends 25 hours per week logged in, then 500,000*(25/168) = 74404 online. If Serenity as half the number of players that TQ does, then that comes to a 50,000/25,000 split.

You know how innumerate and illogical EVE players are; you can just tell us how many are on TQ and the rest will still be shrouded in secrecy.
PS Are there legal constraints on telling us the Serenity numbers or is it just ~Policy~

I wont waste my time explaining why that's an illogical argument.
Let's just wait for CCP to release the figures...which they won't do.
I'd also like to know the percentage of those accounts that are alts. Should be easy as I recall they do ask for our address when we sign up.

Not so fast. Is that second account my alt? Or is it my daughter's account?

CCP Fozzie can't run 500,000 concurrent connections, even with multi-casting software. Most of his alts are going to be offline.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |

500k subscribers sounds certainly better than 500k accounts but its probably accounts.

You have 3 subscriptions. The record is the total number of subscriptions.

Subscribers are paid (PLEX or otherwise) accounts; there are about 5 million EVE accounts. Most of them, obviously, are inactive.
That's a lot of snowflakes...

What we are after is the historical record of TQ subscribers. In other words, are TQ subscriptions growing, or not? Also is the player base for TQ growing, or not?
As CCP is not releasing these numbers it seems that they would cast the current game activity in a poor light if they did. They published the one number that made it look like the game was doing well, and hid all the ones that would make it look bad.

Think you are massively :tinfoil: here.
CCP have always used the same metric for subscribers, which is to say it excludes trial accounts.
The reason PCU is the same now as at 400k is because 500k includes paying customers (only) on Serenity. |
