This game doesn't have much people active. If you want to have people, you'll probably need to huddle together for warmth on ship 2 or 1.

For reference, a successful MMO such as Final Fantasy XIV has an average of 23,000 players on Steam alone over the last thirty days. PSO2 combined with NGS player count on steam alone averages 3,000 players over the last thirty days.

This game's playerbase is just a few die hards such as yourself clinging to what can barely be called a game.

The cold truth is, this game is never a proper MMORPG designed to keep players for long.

Just a cashgrab.

You can enjoy the game till level 60 then leave for 4 or 6 months for the next major update then come back only to leave after playing for maybe 3 days to never come back for another 4 to 6 months again.

Gameplay is short, gameplay is boring but somehow addicting, story is hardly there, the world is empty, and nothing left to do.

No endgame in sight.

Ship 4 Ansur? Lol i'm there and i started playing on 06/07/2022, i have seen people, i don't think it's that dead yet, i even was invited to one clan but i forgot to accept and the invitation is gone...
When i was questing i found another player in the field telling me to create a character in ship 1 because there's more people, but i already accepted rewards that i won't get if i create another character, and i don't want to delete mine or pay to move, so i'm fine here for now

More than 6 / 7 minutes to find a filled party even on a full block for the new trigger.

But it seems (according to the shills) that the game has a population of 5000 / 10 000 players (including those on xbox) lmao.

Dead game.

Well at the release, it's only a seconds and every room fill people 8/8 to farm together. Every block is nearly full people. Now, I waiting like 2 hours and nobody come. Lv60 and waiting every single sector farming

Ohm....well......thats NGS in a nutshell.

The game's speed is at a nice sweet spot where players can actually do lots of things and usually at their own pace. In a sense this game plays itself and takes the player along for the ride which is why people can play it for so long. It's not like a lot of really dull games out there that may seem intelligently designed but in essence just slows people's brains down to a standstill. In that sense this game is a rare gem in the masses and SEGA would do well to refine this and make sure the other components are up to par too.

And lets be real, this is far better than clicking a target and watch some numbers fly by for the next minute.

NGS isn't a gem, it's unrewarding junk that fails to make you feel like you accomplished something.

It's not going to be helpful now, but when the game comes to Sony systems in a month or two (I forget the exact date) ship four should probably get a bit more active as ships 1 & 2 will already be mostly full, so they'll be mostly forced onto ships 3 and 4.

That's the bandwagon crowd. They don't stick around.

Well, all depends on you region , playstyle and interests. Well Ship 4 have a lot of haters, but Ship 4 the most social and drama ship...so ye if u are introverted person who don't like talk with people and doing stuff solo it really hard to survive here.

I'm sure you people just make things up in your heads. How would it be hard to "survive" on ship 4 if they didn't talk much? You don't need to say a word in this game on any ship and you will get along fine.

This whole "this ship is different because x reason" is just cringe at this point. The ships are all the same, there is no real difference other than the amount of players on the ship. Players just like to pretend in their heads that they are different because they are cringe.

less than 3k players spread among 4 servers. Yeah thats gonna be very dead. PoE dev did an interview where he said for small niche games like PoE you can survive with 10k players. Which is about 7k higher than what SEGA gets for their big mmo that they spent a ton of money on marketing before its launch.

We had more than 10k players but the banwaves and whatnot didn't do well, maybe they thought people would want to play the game if they announced it as a safe space or something idk, had the complete opposite effect with no signs of recovery in the near nor far future.

Thankfully they SEEM to have stopped but can never be sure.

Uh steamcharts indicate you are telling some not true stuff there buddy. https://steamcharts.com/app/1056640 Game was only ever above 10k on the first month it launched. Second it was below 8k. please dont lie when its so easy to look up

This game is more for those interested in a small community; fun with friends, so on. It should be fairly obvious with how base PSO2 was handled in Japan, but it also had the same problem with lack of content, and took 7 or so years to reach where it was before NGS. So for global it was effectively resleased with years worth of content and quick rolls of large content updates every few months.
We now have a game that wasn't rolled out in global with years worth of content. And also, I really don't understand what the fixation on game population is. 3,000 is more than enough at least on ship 1/2. Could be better I suppose (don't forget its on Xbox aswell so maybe add in another thousand or two).

How often u talk to people in person?XD or u that type who think look at me i`m special talk to me?XD Anyway , Dude i waste 4k hours and i know what i`m talking about) + most people who already in Alliance use alliance chat for conversations coz they don't need area one.
My advice try start talk to people and u will be impressed with future results. In my case i already don't give the ♥♥♥♥ about gameplay, i just log in to game coz there a lot of my friends i hang out togather. And ye, imagine that on ship 4)

I talk to people plenty, but you missed the point of my post. My point was that you pretend that you need to be a certain way on ship 4 to "survive" on it, but you don't. You can be exactly the same on every ship and your experience will be exactly the same, because every ship is exactly the same.

I can't agree with u, all 4 ships pretty different, coz all 4 ships atm have different community. But it pointles keep discussing this. here. Coz this not answer the main question of this topick.

Dead ship 4? - nope

Is there any Clans still active or Ship have much people active ? - yes

Did NGS dead game- nope (know why? coz there a lot of people who still invest a lot of money in it. at game will be a live for 1-2 year more for sure)

I have been on all 4 ships at various points in both base and NGS life and I have noticed zero difference other than player population and market prices.

It always makes me laugh when people pretend that being on a different ship is like moving to a different country and culture.
