idk what they fuck they were thinking
but the Whales in this game with all these bugs have proven to be stupid
I’ve never seen gamers give so much money to a broken product
But I doubt even THEY will stick around to do Brel for 8 months
Competition too fierce
Diablo 4 2023
Thorn Liberty NCsoft prob be more P2W 2023
This out in 2023
Soulframe aka Warframe 2.0 spiritual successor 2023
2023
Some of above MMOs in development hell, but who knows.
Whales are not loyal they are fickle hop to one game to the next.
8 months of killing same boss, Brel, too long
8k for concurrent active players. 12-17k just being generous.
All the bots thats trying to level to south vern are mostly either hiding in chaos dungeons or going all out with punika twisted dimension farming is where the rest of the numbers are at or getting weekly bus carries in party finder.
Honing to getting to level requirement is extra gatekeeping for new / returning players to reach to brel legion raid. Then an extra gatekeeping from players in party finder to meet their requirements to play together with from card collection awakening levels to getting the right stat/engravings combo.
what do you expect of illiakan raid ? it wasn’t released atm also in russia , it will be released there in march + and ags version gap between ru is 1 / almost year old ago content .
Im making 2 more alts using vern knowledge transfer to finish my roster of 6 and ive been shocked at the insta ques for urnill and above. Does seem like alot of newer players which is a goos thing to see. They had real names and everything. I dont want to see this game die. Even with D4 coming my LA will come to a halt but id still like to do raids whenever I get bored. Imo lost ark is still a good game but with the economy the way it is and the honing etc… I wonder how many of these new players will stay. I was in a streamers guild and its dead. Im
the guildmaster of every single one of my alt guilds now due to people leaving. I mean these are guilds with 1460’s and up all gone. T3 is left with high amounts of toxicity or average joes like myself gambling pugs hopefully to one pull and not get jailed. Game still feels active to me but our publisher definitely needs to show more interest in there player base.
If they would just implement better drop rates or monthly ways to obtain 1-2 legendary engravings of choice (untradable)I think that would help out the game tremendously. I mean I have maybe 15-20 legendary books in my stash but its all trash engravings. Since launch ive found like 3-4 engravings that sold for good amounts. Rng is rng but allot of stuff is strange at times. for instance it seems like every player has certain amount of items they get like 90% of the time. for me its Luterra. I already 15 of them and almost every time i get a legendary its him. When I do get legendary engraving its almost always crisis evation or the lightning one. Ive gotten 2 gold maps outside of auction im chaos gates in 1600 hours. Tldr you either get lucky or shafted with drops same with honing and everything in game. Ive pitied like 20 times already on destro (main swapping) and hes only 1447. Not to mention already cutting over 50 stones for not even a 7/6 but once.
thats right but thing is that that 50k is taken from charts after major patch where bots have to adjust (although some log in and just stand there) and usually mmo ppls just go off shedule for that ocasions
i would be verry cautious with estimations for this particular game
yea im waiting for that one
if monetisation will be in line with warframe while theme will be a bit less jumpy/futuristic it will make a lot of fuss on the market
Its probably around 100k like River’s had predicted. Knowing we will never get new content on release means we will probably never have a huge influx of players or excitement like wow or ff14 does for an expansion. Unless Tier 4 gets announced and releases globally.
The only reason the population might go back up is if the bots find a way to multiply again.
Only thing that I can think about reducing bot method is probably adding a phone verification even if those bots will try to find an altrnative way or get a phone number in shady way.
