The negative reviews have nothing to do with PoE and everything to do with the game being unplayable for like 2 days on launch due to dogshit servers and LE-61
>being unplayable for like 2 days on launch
Try 5 and devs still larping about depliy and shit.
How do you even still botch a launch this bad with all the knowledge of it's consequences in 2024? Were LE devs just expecting that most people would play offline?
I don't think they expected nearly 200k concurrent users every day. PoE's all time peak is 209k on steam and even that was very recently. League starts are normally 100-150k. Other games in the genre struggle to get 100k.
They know how many people bought the game so they can predict easily. They said they have 2M sales so 200k is not that crazy for a launch
This is not a strong argument. Last epoch has been "out" for 5 years, sales figures don't equate to CCU numbers like you think they do. Grim Dawn has sold 7 million copies but peaked at 60k players.
>sales figures don't equate to CCU numbers
Then fricking explain what is happening
>Grim Dawn has sold 7 million copies but peaked at 60k players.
Grim Dawn have LAN and TCP/IP servers not a shitty matchmaking frankenstein servers 24/7 Online.
>Then fricking explain what is happening
Exactly what I said in the first post? They didn't expect this many concurrent players? And there's no way to accurately predict since, as I said, total sales numbers over 5 years isn't a strong variable. They've gone into detail in what's happening in their discord, but I can't be bothered reading it all because I play offline and don't care.
>Except it didn't
Yes it did. Picrel
Oops. Picrel
>dlc
>copies
Hello moron-kun, the image I posted is from 2022 and yours are from 5+ years earlier. Even if you want to split hairs and argue that DLC sales don't count, it has sold well over 1 million copies and peaked at not even 1/4th the CCU of LE, so again -- total sales is not indicative of what CCU will look like.
You are a fricking moron.
it's 2 years after it reached that peak, moron
Grim Dawn reached 60k peak concurrent in May of 2019. It crossed 1 million sales in 2017 and hit nearly 3 million of the game alone, without DLC, a month before in April of 2019. So again, we circle back to: total sales numbers are not directly correlated to daily CCU numbers.
Why are the dumbest motherfrickers here so foolhardy?
And how many of those sales are on steam ?
Completely irrelevant. Even if only half of them were on steam, which is being EXTREMELY generous to your semantic-ridden argument, it would still be at 50% more sales on steam than LE with less than 30% of the players. Again indicating that sales numbers are not directly correlated to CCU numbers.
Learn to do math and use critical thinking you stupid ESL homosexual, god damn it's frustrating having to spoonfeed this to you
>sales are completely irrelevant
>makes some numbers up
You are really dumb. obviously there isn't a formula to convert sales to ccu 1:1, but you can calculate pretty accurately.
>makes some numbers up
Sources are literally right here in the thread. have a nice day
Where is the source of how many Grim Dawn sales are on steam?
Where is the source of how many sales did LE made after launch?
Where is the source of how many sales did LE made in the last X months close to it's launch?
All you're doing is making shit up to defend your moronic argument which is false. Devs have all the data to tell how many players will be at launch.
>Where is the source of how many Grim Dawn sales are on steam?
Already disputed. Even if we assume GOG has 66% of the sales we would still come to the conclusion that, proportionately, GD had fewer players with more sales so sales:CCU is not an accurate metric.
>Where is the source of how many sales did LE made after launch?
Completely irrelevant
>Where is the source of how many sales did LE made in the last X months close to it's launch?
Also completely irrelevant
Shut the frick up you goalpost-moving homosexual. I've blown your butthole out half a dozen times now and you're pathetic for trying this hard to save face
Here's another chart. Hope you're not too moronic to understand what I mean.
>Grim Dawn has sold 7 million copies
Except it didn't and Grim Dawn is not online so people don't feel the need to be there on launch playing with their favourite ecelebs. Also Grim Dawn is on GOG.
That's weak. It's not unreasonable to expect people who bought the game 5 years back to try it out again when it hits its 1.0 or whatever. They just failed to plan and now they're getting fricked for it.
>1 million jacking off congratulation posts in every corner and site
>they can't even offer service to 200k+ players
morons
Should have made a phone call to Assmonbald, to ask him if he was going to play/hype the game on stream.
because more or less every PoE player is playing it but also some moronic casuals that played D3 or D4 as their first ARPG
Bring back Marvel Heroes Omega pre console update.
skibidi dop dop dop yes yes
Why play online?
trans behaviour dictates that leaderboards are more important than having fun
Isnt cycle aka season, ladder, league online only?
>Not having the tech ready to scale your servers in real time in 2024
>Online mode for single player
You get what you deserve.
>Un*ty
It was over for this game before it even started lmao.
You need to be a fricking GOD of programming to make a un*ty game with passable performance. I'd say under 1% of un*ty games with complex 3d visuals have passable performance. It must be legitimately easier to make a game from scratch without using pre-made engine, than to make optimized un*ty game.
As of this particular game, they simply never gave a frick, they just wanted to quickly get some cash from PoE business model. However, PoE has gone a long way to its success, and at least at some point its devs actually cared, so it never stood a chance with this attitude.
LE lost the moment they decided to have MTX in a game you already paid for.
