Lost Ark had the lowest 24h players peak since release

[Burrito132]

Hey guys, just wanted to give an (in my opinion anyways) interesting statistic.
Lost Arks 24h player Peak on Steam was “only” 510k players. This is obviously still A LOT of players but it is on the same time the lowest 24h players peak since release.

Usually Lost Ark peaks at about 600k-700k players in 24h according to Steamcharts, now if this has anything to do with the underlying issues of Lost Ark, the lack of communication, the honing, something else or everything at once I can not say, I just wanted to share some Info.

Because they just had a massive ban wave on bots and on people use anti-afk macros and people who RMT’d? That’s an obvious correlation that you’re intentionally overlooking to try and make a point…

im actually having launching issues, i tried everything the game says running in steam library but wont display…super annoying

you only lie to yourself, you don’t have to try to convince others of such nonsense. It just seems silly

He’s not lying though. Half of my guild got banned for unknown reasons. We’ve been trying to figure out the correlation between the accounts suspended but haven’t found anything concrete yet.

I’m tempted to go back to Blade & Souls…but my pc can’t handle it anymore…

Oh here we go yet again… this is the 6th thread on this topic within the past 48 hours so im just going to quote myself… again

@Bluecogs

I actually find it funny that people actually think that a game like this would ever be able to maintain its launch numbers in a western market. Thats just amazingly unrealistic. Obviously people are quitting. Alot of them will probably come back when they fix honing and start releasing new classes. This is how MMORPGs work. Launch hype>People play for 48 hour stretches and burn out and go play other games>Updates happen that bring them back for a while>They leave again after completing content

You cant even really see this trend yet on lost ark because its literally only been on the market for a month yet everyone wants to come on the forums the second they see a downward trend

Granted people quit after Argos for very very VERY obvious reasons. It was a god awful update. No new classes no honing changes no bot solutions ect ect

People want everything NOW they dont want to wait. In reality though updates take time to write. Granted there are serious lapses in communication between the devs and the player base. they really should have released a roadmap by now even if its not set in stone. GIVE US SOMETHING. Tell us a general idea of what we can expect to see in April at the very least.

But constantly fear mongering creating these threads with pictures of charts that have barely any data isnt helping at all. You want to help the game succeed? Give constructive feedback in a rational manner.

No they legit banned a very large number of players without cause. They are currently looking into what caused it. Read the thread in the support forum.

Respond here if you got 3 day suspension for "Cheating"

thats what i thought before today, prob something people wont tell like rmt/3rd party but i got hit myself today and i can guarantee that i didnt do anything against tos/coc now ags just needs out how they could have banned so many innocent accounts

Roxx, please save us from this unfair auto-suspension

Good morning Roxx, As you can read in multiple other posts, today’s maintenance enforced an unfair 3-day suspension wave on hundreds (maybe thousands) of honest players. I am retired, play this game every hour of my day and reached 650 hours over the last 36 days (18 hours/day). Please have in mind that a great percentage of that play time corresponds to endless queues and leaving the game on until being kicked and Steam still counting the time as play time. Never received any item in mail, I…

@Roxx

Appreciate all of the reports – we are looking into this with the Customer Support team to see what is going on and if there are any updates I can provide.

In the meantime, for those who haven’t, please submit a ban appeal with a ticket through our Customer Support site: Appeal a ban - Support | Amazon Games I know this process is often frustrating, but it is important to file a ticket to have on record, and please keep in mind that because I am not a member of the CS team and do not have support tools at my disposal, I cannot individually look into player accounts, information, or change the status of any bans directly.
