Really quick question. Since when does prime time have 25k people logged in? I just re-activated my account for the upcoming winter expansion and last time I checked, it was usually around 50k-60k. Has it just been an off-week or is this pretty common? |

Peak is still around 45000, which is about what it typically was a year ago. The highest PCU was around 60k. The difference now it seems is not the max logged in over the course of a day, it's the minimum. Used to be you'd only see it at 20k in India prime time, now it's there most of the day. I suppose it could reflect progress in the war on bots, but I somehow doubt it. |

I think the slew of AAA titles released in the last few months has taken its toll. So has the plex prices. I've unsubbed most of my accounts personally. Time out has made me wonder if Eve is value for money. Real money that is. I can't say I'm rushing to open my wallet.
Maybe a lot of people are wondering if they can't hit that sweet spot of time in vs plex out, eve just isn't worth their $15.
Maybe I am just talking ****. We'll see.

Not just a Sunday, it was a Sunday leading up to an expansion, and the 8th Alliance Tournament. But yes, I realized that shortly after I posted my antagonizing remark, however, PCU over the recent months hasn't dropped too much. |

Thanksgiving holiday is next week (runs Thursday-Sunday, and the Friday is a "big" shopping day called "Black Friday").
A lot of folks that I know (and I'm personally one of them) are taking the next two weeks to play other games until the expansion hits. Only reason I'm logging on this week and next is to tend to my PI and production lines and make sure that I have everything stockpiled for what I want to get done after the expansion hits. |

Uhm...since it's a Wednesday and most of us have work and/or school to attend?

Without being silly and declaring EVE dead, it is quite obvious that CCP are in some degree of trouble caused by strong competition in gaming generally and complete mismanagement over the last two years.
Crucible may not cut out all the rot, but it will put the brakes on the decline.
Time will tell once all the low hanging fruit is picked if CCP have the ability to deliver in large scale again. The problem for CCP is they used to build in response to increased players and subsequent emergent gaming. What will they build to now? |

When plex price is 500m people are cutting down amount of alts and also client requires more from computer so you can not run as many clients than before.
So accounts online has reduced but actual amount of players may be almost same. |

I feel no pity for people who complain about PLEX prices, because it's more people who buy plexes for $ that EVE needs, not the people who consume them. |

Better take some time to get your PI *OUT* of customs. It won't be there waiting on you very long after release. Incarna - Newest business example of mismanaged capital.

While of course I do think Eve must have lost some customers through high PLEX and some bad decisions over the last couple of years: why is no one mentioning the recessions* over a lot of the western world at least? many people are reducing their spending, and let's face it a subscription to an MMO is a luxury, and with the high PLEX prices pricing a lot of people out of the ISK subscription market - even if CCP was doing a impeccable job I am sure numbers would be down a bit.

And to make that smile on your face even more noticable - check the plex prices out! Are we in the 600-s yet? "Have you had your morning coffee?" -> the Coffee Lovers Brewing Club is recruiting! |
