just for the staff some statistics on how fast the game grows about 10days ago there were 40k people online in PoE on the 27th january they reached 69850 PLAYERS ONLINE- SO MUCH MORE THEN d3! Source: https://twitter.com/pathofexile/status/295610485775159296 today there are probably already over 100k playing its really the game we hoped diablo3 would be....AND WE NEED AN AUTOMATIC LEVELING TOOL FOR IT!
WoW has over 4Mil players in active subscription. Diablo 3 sold more than 10Mil copies. PoE: 69,850 players is too low.
its about the players online, they have much much more then 70k accounts its just that there are 70k people online AT THE SAME TIME you wont get this for d3 anymore (if you dont count the bots) im pretty sure about that we really need a product for this game
PoE has not even half the players online like d3 ..idk what ur talking about. game will be another 2 week wonder and well not even this.
well the playerbase is rapidly growing, still after a week of open beta now i am very sure the devs would make their fair share by selling lisences, just through the fact that the game is free to play but i would also like to see how the game is gonna turn out in, ye lets say 2weeks if the growth kept going, i really would like to see a buddy for PoE if interesst falls off, ye then its probably not worth it PS: the SOLD COPIES of d3 and wow dont have ANYTHING to do with the ACTIVE ONLINE PLAYERS! cause both d3 and wow have a pretty dead economy atm (wow is just so damn old that everyone knows everything, and D3 was a big fail which is loosing players every second, if there even are any ones too loose left) we could really use a fresh game for the virtual currency market, and PoE fits perfectly (multiple currencies- just like d2)
SWTOR had its 3.8Mil player population dropped to 900K within 4 months of release and then to 20K for the next 3 months. PoE which is F2P is still far from LoL's player population: 2011 Stats: League of Legends now bigger than World of Warcraft | News | PC Gamer http://media.pcgamer.com/files/2011/11/riot_lol_infographic_full.jpg => 1.3 Mil concurrent players => 4.2 Mil daily players => 11.5 Mil monthly players => 32.5 Mil signups 2012 Stats: Riot Games Releases Awesome League of Legends Infographic - IGN http://oyster.ignimgs.com/wordpress/stg.ign.com/2012/10/lol_infographic-610x3217.png => 3.0 Mil concurrent players => 12.0 Mil daily players => 32.0 Mil monthly players => 70.0 Mil signups
bro stop using meth and do ur math correctly pls you still compare the wrong numbers, AND KNOW you even start adding even wrong types of game ye sure lol is the biggest game of the world right now (at least i think so) but if u gonna look at d3 players which is an actionrpg just like poe, you probably gonna find lower numbers then 70k also the subscribtion to SWTOR HAS ZERO TO DO WITH POE because you PAY MONTHLY TO PLAY the game, and it was STAR WARS....bro the 3.8mil people were startwars fans who got disappointed PoE has risen from nothing and probably grown bigger then d3 at this point, which should be the most sold actionrpg ever and still even tho 6million people HAVE d3 and can play it, they dont blizzard doesnt tell you how many people are online in D3 cause the numbers are embarissing :x if u wouldnt count all the bots, there would be probably like 500people playing right now all those threads about gold selling and the raff economy in d3 AND wow, just support me in my statement there are still people online in blizzard games, but for the most part they are bots there are probably 50bots for each real player on a blizzard game right now and u wanna know something, the botters still own their fair share of money!!!! if u know target a completly new economy like PoE, where u have probably 1bot on 1000or maybe even 10000players (you will find ZERO bots on the internet, you have to make one yourself!) you gonna get at least at the beginning very nice results and i have even said before, that i would even recommend to wait 1or2weeks to see if the hype will persist! but if the game keeps growing, we srsly gonna need a bot
ZilianOP ZilianOP is using an unknown bot for his PoE stream. I'm too lazy to wait for him to slip up and show the bot window. Alot of people didn't catch my hint.
Sorry to disappoint you but even the PoE team has commented that they have issues/problem with keeping the server up with more players and might need to impose a player cap soon: Forum - General Discussion - Beta is now open, beta keys are no longer required - Path of Exile
The POE Currency is CONSUMABLE, which makes a massive "currency sink" right there and from experience the RNG on some of the consumables is quite bad so I have a feeling the currency will drain out of the economy quite fast.... Accounts are free, the team is small so I think they won't have strong anti-cheat. Would have to reply on blackmarket sales, but I think there is money to be made.
It would be a foolish thing to ignore this game. Someone is gonna make a PoE Bot, MMoViper already said they will be working on one soon. It's gonna be disappointing if you just wait until another bot site makes a bot for this game. Most of the customer base would go for the first bot on the market and will probably stay with it until it's first downtime/detection.
finally some more people showing up !!! ye the currency is usable, so it doesnt inflate as bad as d3/wow gold also there are currently about 70k people PLAYING; WITH THEIR HANDS AND BRAINS!; THEY WNAT TO BUY SHIT FROM US!!!!!!!!!!!! ALOT OF SHIT! we need a bot pls!!!!
