    It doesnt matter if they push out updates every week if the player base dwindles down to nothing before they fix all the issues.
    Put out a finished game to begin with and they would retain player base.

    yeah JB you lost me here dawg! R6 is way more innovative and there is NOTHING else like it so it makes sense that with Jynxzis help the game was revived. XDEFIANT doesn't have that crazy wow factor to it (besides no skill bases matchmaking) so you cant really compare it to R6. i love playing this game and the no SBMM is super fun but i do think it is gonna die quick and when BO6 comes out all the cod fanboys gonna go crazy so XDEFIANT will just get wrecked i think.

    when ppl are coming out and doing vids to try and say the game isnt dead or dying , we all know that it is as we can see it with our own eyes , the same players in the lobbies , the longer wait times for matches and then getting thrown into matches that are ongoing.
    only a few top ppl at ubi know the player numbers and rubin may not be one of them so ubi could settle this by saying we have x amount of players but they are silent.

    One of the biggest content creators for the game quit yesterday and the reason was because the game is dying and it's hard to find games. 15 to 20k is like a 99% + dropoff from the once 10 million and 800k concurrent who played. This is making my case more valid. Like woah. Blame truth tried to say 100 to 200k legit two weeks ago. So a dropoff that huge and that quick being your flex is wild.

    In all honesty it is super inaccurate way to determine the player count, why? Pretty easy, the problem is "estimated average total score per lobby", this is just wrong because a) distribution of scores between players in a lobby can be just wild, cheaters, great players, the stacks of great players, players who are obj focused (in obj modes) will get exponentially more scores than the rest of the players in a lobby, hence can easily skew the statistics b) the types of players I just mentioned also skew the average score per lobby, if I understanding his method correctly the more good players lobby have the higher this number is.
    I would say it's a nice try, but his solution is waaaay too volatile, I remember when I has been writing a research on player retention during my master degree, my supervisor explicitly told me that I am not allowed to use such methods BECAUSE they are not reliable when it comes to tracking population, I was allowed to use viewership numbers, statements from the company, publicly available player counts, sales statistics etc. literally every single reliable metric shows that the game is dying, arguing against it is like arguing against statistics.

There are channels out there flat out lying and making stuff about to say the game is dead so i would expect other content creators to push back when there are blatent lies being pushed out other(stares at ghost of eight). As some one who love and played the game hard has the game lost a chunk of its luster yes, but dead no. if it really has 150-250k concurrent players that's cool . that's is definitely not a # of a dead live service game.

    Even if this method gives a rough idea I'd say a concurrent player count of up to 20k isn't really that great especially when you consider that is across 3 platforms. Ultimately the player count doesn't matter much to Ubisoft though. It is all about people spending money so as long as they are making decent profits the game will stick around.

Took me a few minutes to find a lobby where it used to take a few seconds...and it hasnt even been out a year yet.

    What I'll never understand is why people are so loose with the phrase "this game is dead". It's dead if/when Ubisoft pulls the plug. Is it dying? Hardly. You tell me the last time a game had retained every single player that logged on to it since the opening weeks of its launch. By that definition, every game is "dying" or "dead". It takes time for someone to determine if they want to continue playing a game and I'm willing to bet a good portion of the population that left were people who play CoD and determined the game isn't for them for one reason or another. The rest simply don't want to continue to play a game with netcode/hit reg/cheating issues.
    This game may have been profusely bleeding recurring players but it's not "dead".
