catastrophic.
Don't agree? ...
look at: http://www.xfire.com/games/who/Warhammer_Online_Age_of_Reckoning/
In January the game already lost 25% as from the December stats (supposed 300K then coming from 800K).
And now February shows another 20% loss compared to 3 weeks ago.
Of course the roughly 3000 Xfire players is way offf the high number of 15.000 Xfire players in October 2008. But it just shows the game keeps on losing subs.
Anyone surprised really?
Now I think the free trial will not do it any good either. Because 10 days is way too long for a trial period for WAR.
Perhaps the Slayar patch could help a bit to lure in some.
But I see this baby at the same scale as AoC by summer 2009 (100-120K subs max).
Meaning BOTH "Wow killers" will have to settle for a 0.5 to 1% market share.
Grtz.
Waiting for KOTOR I suppose.....
