    How can a player possibly average 1 player kill every 30 seconds for a YEAR? Does that not strike anyone else as odd? Or even impossible?

    Because it's spread out evenly and averaged out - again stupid statistics. When you have a some players that have thousands of kills and others that have zero you get stats like this.


    Unless I read it wrong they said some guy got over a million kills in a year.  that means that HE personally had to average a kill every 30 seconds for a year.  Or am I missing something?

    Using a siege weapon in Halcyona, you can literally 1 shot hundreds of players at a time. Given the huge zergs for world events and there being no AoE cap, it's definitely possible.

    The "characters" listed with over 1M kills are boss mobs not player characters.

    "3 houses and farms" built per minute; works out at 1.57M. First stab assumption 1 farm per character; there are large farms, small farms, secret farms etc. so it will be less but I think it helps put the other stats into perspective. And as DMKano says: all averages. ages. Does help to promote the game though!

    Well it is AA after, hacking would be my first thought for all 3 of those ridiculously high numbers.(unless those were NPC's and not player characters)

    They are missing some vital stats I would like to see....

    1. Number of players that left the game after Trion destroyed it
    2. Number of land plots stolen by hackers
    3. Average number of bots operating in the world at any one time
    4. $$$$$$ XL/Trion made off of pay to win cash shop items

    Ruined a game with so much potential, the first MMO to come along in years that I truly was in love with during alpha. Fuck you Trion.

    I wouldn't know tbh but so what; it is a brief link to an infographic released about the game. Hardly constitutes an article nor do I see anything wrong with it. The reason you probably get multiple posts about a single game however will probably reflect a marketing push by said game especially around an anniversary. And links like these can keep people who don't play game X informed - if they choose to open the story; if you have read your AA story for the fortnight just ignore it. Pretty sure that people do not go around checking out every possible game they might have a passing interest in though so I am sure I'm not the only one who finds this stuff of "passing interest". Certainly does no harm either.

    Never been a fan of these "game by numbers" info graphics. Yes metrics are neat for online games - but I've said it before its just like - hey lets throw some ridiculously large numbers around..... this is one trend I'd love to see go away personally.
    You mean like when we all got to see how many people registered for ESO's beta?

    Completely agree. Beta player here and watched it go downhill. Sooooo many greedy players in there accusing people of not being able to pay to play when really it was riddled with terrible deals especially the labor system. Worst game design in a long long time and it wasn't even like the original game they took out several key elements that made it fun for PVEers to enjoy when they "westernized" it but those who continue to attack people like you for pointing out the truth about this title in the hands of Trion will try to make you seem desparate when really you were honest. Sad.

    You can go and play on one of the fresh start servers - everyone starts at level 1 and new anti-land hording rules are in place on those servers.

    The game is as awesome as it was in alpha, just take those trion hate glasses off and have fun :)

    Find a good guild and ignore the cash shop.
    Unless they undid all the crap from the Korean 1.0 patch that ruined the game. Its not awesome.

    I am a WoW player, but IMO, AA is pound for pound the best MMO in the market. I´ve tried all the major mmo´s out there for the past 10 years or so and I haven´t found any one with so much to do and always having a blast playing, in spite of it´s faults and mismanagement issues by XLGAMES/TRION. There, my 2cents...

    Ignoring the cash shop is just closing your eyes and sticking your head in the sand... two quotes from the link concerning just the two fresh start servers, the merged ones will be subject to all the old hacks and cash shop advantages:

    Dress it up all you want, the game isn't as good as it was compared to the alpha version.

    So what was good compared to the alpha version? only part I can think of had no cash shop. But most the problem I see with people on the game just the game it self. Like land for one people I seen complain most about, let says there start of the game there was no teleport hacker taking up all the land, still be limited amount of land and people still complain.

    This game seem will not bring many people happy if make it to easy people complain, make it to hard people complain. Only most problem I have most mmo is there dumb RNG system in all games that have it but people still go after game just pure RNG in how they play there mmo.

    Yay for bogus numbers, clearly impossible.  Typical Trion, can't even get their facts straight.

    Worst implementation of any game by any company.  Worst RNG game also.

    Won't even play a Trion game any more because they are such idiots.

    Oh and anyone posting to ignore the cash shop has the word "CLUELESS" emblazoned on their forehead.

    Huh?  You really need to take those rose colored glasses off and stop defending these klutzes.  The number is obviously statistically impossible
