Wildstar no longer even shows up on the Raptr.com top 100 games being played list for either weekly or monthly total playtime, and hasn't been since the last week of October. I don't look for it daily, so perhaps it might have sneaked on and off in …
Originally posted by cura Are people using Raptr of some other kind that we cant suspect similiar drop across all playerbaase?
I'm not really sure what you're asking, but if it's whether all games have been dropping, the answer is no. WoW, FF XIV…
Originally posted by NobleNerd And we all know that so many people actually use Raptr. I installed it way back in the day for Rift goodies, but haven't used it nor had it installed in years now.
Admittedly, it's a sample, and an "unscientific" sa…
I've been following the gameplay stats over at Raptr.com, and tracking a few manually, including Archeage.
Since hitting a high of almost 940k hours played/week at the end of Sept, it has been falling steadily. Today, that number stood at 282k hrs/…
Originally posted by rodingo I know you mean well, but the only numbers ESO fans accept are SuperData's *holds back laughter*. They are quick to dismiss (usually the same four or five guys) Steam's or Raptr's though, so....yeh.
If I recall, Supe…
The only other place to find "hard-ish" numbers is Raptr, where it isn't doing all that great. Its weekly playtime is sitting around 26k hrs, placing it at position 68 of the most played games being tracked by that platform. This is less than half o…
I played it for a few weeks near the start using free trials, and by the time I got to Egypt, I had had enough.
The worst thing to me was that storywise it plays like a shooter, not an RPG--your character doesn't get to say anything, and except for…
Personally, I had a disk-based preorder for a PS3 version through Amazon, but a few days before release, they put out a promotion that all digital PS3 and XB360 (I think) preorders would get a free license for the next-gen console. So I cancelled my…
Originally posted by Phry All very interesting, while it would also be interesting to see how those games fared on other platforms like Xfire too, i would hate to use them as the basis of an argument without a certain amount of corroboration from so…
I've been tracking some numbers on Raptr for a while now. WS at the end of July was in the top 20 over the month, but if you look at the trends (which I've been manually saving since Raptr does not display this), their position was more due to their…

I'm fine with a non-inverted mouse.... but when it comes to joysticks, it HAS to have an inverted Y-axis but normal X....
As for why people would get used to an inverted mouse, I could see someone who used a click and drag paradigm, e.g. Google Map…
Believe it or not, companies do trade confidential #s like this at times. The idea is that knowning your competitors numbers is worth more than keeping yours secret. I know my company did this with customer and customer service experiences in the pa…
Originally posted by Quesa I will say that the collection of ratings is quite archaic as they generally select small groups of people from the cable/black-boxes when the ability to pull viewing activity on a massive scale that companies such as Comc…
Originally posted by Robokapp long story short... what you call "july 5th" is actually "The 5th of July" in older english. short for "The fifth day of July". meanwhile "July 5th" is not short for anything...it's in common usage but it is not traceab…

It's not just about the carrot on a stick, the whole perspective is wrong.

One of the problems with MMOs and grouping, is that it often just sucks the fun out ot it. What I mean is that when I'm solo'ing, I'm playing a rather casual game in my head--how do I choose to level with what content, how can I approach a hard scen…
An interesting side-question is what exactly are/will be the plans for TES 6. Right now, the rumors seem to be that Bethesda is next going to do a Fallout sequel, and that gives them some breathing room, like maybe a year before they have to do any …
I am not a fan of F2P because I do not believe it incentivizes the game in the right direction. If you focus on getting your revenue from cosmetics and removing various painful restrictions, then where do you think a lot of that money is invested?
