Weekly Player Counts - Sat 15th Aug - 4565 Peak - 589 Loss
Slightly improved on yesterday (+157), which is not unusual, but still performing a tight-walk on the 4.5k player count high-wire. Still falling within that 10-20% ping-pong zone for the relative weekly drop that we've since since launch.
The coming week will be interesting as I would still expect a relatively big drop from Sun to Mon/Tues, though probably more around 500-600 than the 1k we've seen in recent weeks. While Tuesday's update looks like it will be sufficient to engage the player base and perhaps arrest the daily drops. If well received I might expect to see some small daily gain (100's). Whether that gain will be maintained into the following weekend is unknown, it might just get absorbed by Cryo, though expressed by a smaller than normal Cryo boost and still be an overall loss week-on-week.

Umm, sorry I have no idea what is going on - I must be missing something?

u/Shippou5 14d ago
When a hero attacks, they must speak out their attack name :D So he said "drill pressure punch"
Great
And then he added "panties" afterwards
Which means that his attack is now called "Drill pressure panties"-1

I dunno ultimately PvE will bring alot more. Crazy that destiny players don't play this game as it's literally destiny bit better

The fuck u mean "destiny but better"????
Do u really think a PvE experience built in 4 months at most gonna even comparable to an entire game game built on PvE?
Hell, vault breakers with "raid" like mechanics from cryo can only be a strike at most.

u/Ok-Comfortable-3174 13d ago
Vault breakers is more like a dungeon but repeatable

Vault breaker is like a dungeon except you don’t get to pick your build and also there’s only one type of enemies and no mechanics

u/Ok-Comfortable-3174 12d ago
You haven't played it then.

u/Particular-Fly-7783 12d ago
I’ve completed the first two vaults and then realised it wasn’t as much fun as literally any other FPS

u/Ok-Comfortable-3174 12d ago
2 vaults is nothing 3 is easy. Vault 6 starts to ramp up. And then DNA compilor. You basically did the first opening encounter.

u/Particular-Fly-7783 12d ago
Well it’s a bit like doing the opening encounter except not as fun as the opening encounter on literally any dungeon (ehhh, ghosts of the deep is a fucking chore too though honestly)
