Me thinks that somewhere between 60 k and 100 k we get EVE 2.0 - new game engine. Space and physics upgrade. |

Probably talking about the (3) Jove regions up in the north part of the map. (Also known as the CCP/Dev regions.)
Personally, I think it would be interesting to add a few more regions around the edges (blow the edges of the map out another 20-30 LY), then sprinkle in another few regions closer in, and add another 1500 w-space systems. We're a bit overdue for another expansion of space (drone regions back around 2007, w-space back around 2009, nothing since then). |

I'm not sure I agree. I think the amount of space out there will be somewhat proportional to the number of people on the server. Since our numbers still haven't recovered from monoclegate, I don't forsee new systems in our near future. Moreover, CCP still needs to get around to fixing existing space and making resource distribution less conformal and slowing teleportfleets/logistics, and... you get the idea.
There aren't hundreds of systems in the jove regions though, are there?

Actually they already have, and conformal resource distribution was on the tip of their tounges as I recall. The old forums has a bunch of threads on the topic in ideas and features, all started by CCP. I actually strongly suspect they plan to get to all of that for the next expansion. I know it might sound crazy given their track record, but they do know what the problems are (pretty much) and have already admitted they need work. I'm for one giving them the benefit of the doubt, because I think they want the game to rock too. I'd have thought Crucible would at least get you to give them a chance!

There's plenty of room for growth, dozens of barely inhabited nullsec systems that could be filled if people were forced out of empire, WH space, Jove space. It's just High-Sec that'd get even more overcrowded. Damn nature, you scary! |

'Forced'. 'Forcing' EVE players is generally 'forcing' a subscription drop to CCP. But we got an apology, a good patch and hopefully, a sustained, good, change of direction that gives us reason to spend time in EVE, in an 'unforced' way. |

It means that CCP has most likely achieved their business goals with Crucibles "half" expansion: to stop hemorrhaging customers. Their next goal is likely to heal the wounds completely by delivering a "full" expansion. I.e. by returning to the slow and steady growth that has driven EVE's success since before :18 months: |

Looks like we only reached about 47.5k today. But SWtOR is also now active and that may be drawing people away. |

Nullsec holds no interest for me at all... WH's are the best thing CCP has done since I joined the game (feb/2008). No way i can be *forced* into nullsec.
And forcing people out of "Jove" space is a laugh...

until eve undergoes significant rebalancing, and a complete revamp of FW (where most of the casual pvpers are) and nullsec (bittervet endgame), dont expect to see any trends in subs.
i know i may still be supporting the game, but i will continue to play via PLEX bought by isk. im not giving CCP a cent (directly) until they deliver on at least half on that original list. |

The 25th wasn't worth counting, but on Jan 1st it looks like we topped out at around 42,500 (and a bit over 40k on Friday).
The upcoming weekends will probably be a truer measure.

Probably right... but more players could mean more in a system at one time. So more chance of lag, node hangs and crashes? . |

I'll speculate that the server was coming up from a crash or a reboot at the time. |

What changes? Vastly improved CCP team communication with the playerbase on the forums, for one thing? |

We've been there and seen it before. Lines for gates that point at full systems... systems that crawl when you finally get in them.... when Jita first throttled up to allow up to 900 players in it I remember it took FOREVER to load anything! To me, EvE growing pains and bugs are part of the game's charm. It's funny... and despite what the naysayers say the problems do get addressed eventually. Hay... when's the last time YOU got stuck in a gate and needed a GM to help you? Used to happen all the time... when we hit 100K people (and I think we will) there will be hiccups but it will get sorted. In the meantime, try to find a way to turn it into a scam

Did that happen? 80k pcu I mean. I thought the record was somewhere right around 65k during the alliance tournament 2 years ago?? |

TBH, many of the vets that have left, that I know, aren't even bothered enough to see what is happening to/in EVE...they are too busy kerploding tanks. "In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move." - Douglas Adams |
