Sorry mate I do not agree with you. number of new accounts is not the same as number of accounts which reach rank7 and keep playing. I also understand that average joes like you do not see all the troubles the game has, you are fascinated by the game and maybe do not even have time and capacity to notice all the bugs, mistakes and other bad things in the game.
if average online is 150k , that can be arround 1 200 000 players per day. And the game has 10M accounts, that means 12% of all accounts created are active. If you call this success.
But most important is how the players feel, yes if the goal of Gajin is to provide frustration among players, it is successfull. But why they do not make research among active players, how happy are they with the current state of the game, MM, BR, maps. Why we do not see statistics gajin is using for the BR changes? Why they never ask, or test on which BR new vehicle belong?
So yes from your point of view which is very modest, everything may look ok. But from mine as 12+ years old account, I have different views, diferent question, diferent expectations and I have spent a lot of time with gajin to know, if they are doing well or bad.
This is a bizarrely top-tier-focused mindset; you’re assuming that every single person who starts playing wants to play top-tier, and using that assumption as the basis for a very flawed measure of success.
Nope but every person who plays even rank3 will grind it, no matter if he play Top tier or not. This is just fact and not mindset. The only reason why he would not is only, he doesn not play so often, but in this case he also can not know the problems , because his time spend in the game is to low to notice anything. Not even mention, that most of the problems this game has are on the top tier and are also most visible. Player who plays only WW2, will never find out, what I am talking about.
But anyway, still the daily online is not even close to 10M accounts created, but maybe arround 1,5 - 1,8M, that is 80% drop.
But maybe my goals are biger then yours or Gajin.
And I do not know how much money is needed to play rank3, but I would say it is free to play, so how many players get to top tier and play top tier, says also how much money is in the game, because it is top tier which demands to sepnd money and not tiger 1 or tiger 2.
When you google xenophobia, it actually prompts the synonyms of xenophobe, which include racist.
When I was playing ARK I’d play with a name that was just boxes in ARK, and I’d constantly get assumed I was Chinese, and I’d commonly end up with people attacking me because they thought I was, or they’d all log off the server as soon as I came on to avoid me finding them
The company was founded in Moscow, which is in Russia. That makes it a Russian company no matter where the HQ is now located.
Xenophobes can be racist but it is not needed (take a look around the Orient and how much some people hate others even though they’re the same race). But not wanting to play with people in other regions doesn’t need to be either as I stated (latency is a legitimate concern).
I also didn’t say it was a fact that “chinese characters indicate cheating” I just said that was likely what he was basing that decision off of (I also said I didn’t agree).
It doesn’t matter that Gaijin is a Russian company other than that would explain any perceived bias in the design and performance (and I don’t believe there is actual purposeful bias but there could more attention by devs and management to get the vehicles they know love verses others. I Believe GJ tries their best to get the things working as closely as possible to reality).
And for your information, Yamanda, I’m married to a Vietnamese woman and her non-english speaking parents live with me in my house and have a mixed-race child. If I’m racist I’m not very good at it.
Thing is you’re writting it off as ping… The person who posted it is about the generalisation of them having a chinese name, and they actually said it was chinese, not asian.
yeah who would have thought that intentionally adding features that make the game worse and more annoying to the very players that keep the lights on will drive them away?
ironic thats the definition of a bad game, just tedious, long, annoying, bug infested
these devs would be out of a job anywhere else but in gaijin hq lmao
backwards company producing a backwards culture
War Thunder doesn’t.
As I said, per two days.
26 battles today, 5 minute average. ~130 minutes, just over 2 hours for the star, or 1 hour per day.
Worst case at 7 minutes per match that’d be 182 minutes, or 91 minutes per day.
It’s 35000 / 1.33 = 26316.
Ans / 26 = 1012 score per match average.
Granted it was closer to 30,000 needed today since I did daily tasks yesterday in ~30 minutes.
So 868ish score per match today.
An average score of a 1000 and games on average last 12 minutes, for 35k that’s 7h or 3.5h per day without multipliers which obviously depends on what you play.
I still don’t know what other game are more demanding than WT events.
26 battles for one star would be 35000/26=1346 average score post modifiers per game. pre modifiers at top tier would then be about 700. extremely reasonable score.
BUT there is no way the average is 5 minutes per match.
i would venture a guesstimate of 10 minutes per match average for an average player. making it 260minutes per two days or about 2 hours a day (with that score).
with average score 1450 and average time 10 minutes (which going by numbers Here seems to be the actual average) that comes to 35000/2900=about 12 games per star, or 6 games per day. 10min a game gives one hour a day or 2 hours per star. very reasonable.
if you also want the upgraded coupon that 600.000/7=about 85700 for the same timeframe or about 42750 per day.
let say you have an average score of 1450 per game (2900 post modifiers for top GRB) of 10 minutes that means 42750/2900= about 15 games per day at 10 minutes a game making it 150 min or two and a half hours per day for the average player. every day, for 14 days straight with no misses. that is not a reasonable number for the average player to play every day.
