Players dropping

[キヨ]

My friend said the game went from 12k players to 7k and only 2k online for steam, now I know the game is cross play and people keep saying that it will be around for awhile but my brain keeps panicking thinking not enough people will stay around and they’ll shut the servers down.

If this happens I really hope they’ll at least do something like make it offline to play with bots fully so you can still grind for levels and cosmetics and drops from the raid bosses and the co op missions. I know it’s only been out for a week but hearing it’s slowly dying already is killing me inside.

Bamco doesnt shut down their servers. I replayed Accel world vs SAO abot a monthe ago. That game That game dropped in 2017, and you can still do the coop dungeon. Same with fatal bullet.

both games are peer to peer they have no servers

Even better. The point is that Banco makes sure isf you buy the came you can play it regardless of how old it is. Personally I dont care if I play with bots. Half decent AI is going to be more useful than humans anyway. If I go down they will always pick me up regardless of the danger.

It's a dps loss to ressurect it's better to die and respawn.

DBZ Sparking Zero just released, which I've seen some people mention that they've been waiting for as well. ...No, I'm not one of them, I don't fightan games. [sic]

online player curve

I was expecting a significant dip according to what's been doomposted.
...it's not; that's as gradual a dip as it normally is.

Nevertheless, yes, we still want the choice for offline-able most of things, if not everything.

Its unplayable with teams full of bots, you don't want that.

This is also unplayable by itself w/o the choice of bots in times of low player count.
Do you want to play the co-op at all with minimum 5 people in the session, or not at all when players are lacking for the particular stage you're matching in atm.

As it usually is. However unlike other games that just has a revive count lost, you don't want that here when there's a loss everytime you die get incapacitated and respawn.
That says alot about the behavior to leave someone else out, unless the choice to not revive is pre-communicated.
But eh, priorities.

Sorry, I like getting the extra character rank points from reviving people, and i'm always in the top 3, if not #1 in damage.

Letting people die and respawn also tanks the quest rank by a massive chunk, too, sometimes by so much that the run gets an A rank lol.

Actually I was thinking of the mugen dungeons from Accel World vs SAO, and Fatal Bullet. Respawning means a loss of floors, and loot.

Bro, its around 5am in europe and around 9pm in the Us in the middle of the week, ofcurse nobodys is playing.
And if you now come with "But but Asia" they mostly use consoles.

i wouldn't call it just region, it is game design
20 people... with Various gamemodes and bosses and regions...
This spreads out the playerbase so much that since launch, i never found a full session after day 1 anymore.... and i'm tired of playing with bots only.. its boring

many are leaving because of the speedrunners. speedrunners get to the boss fast and eat up the last missions exp alone, leaving others underlevel for boss and a oneshot for every single boss skill. And you barely can catch up to a speedrunner with a group of 3 bots, and that's not even roaming for the side chests

you want atleast lv 20 awakening if ur at the rank of the content ur running, the people already at tower when you zone in are higher rank in lower tier content often with no NPCs (most of the time).

tagging mobs other groups are fighting gives you awakening crystals for those mobs even if u dont get the kill. So on towers run around and hit all the mobs you can preferably mobs ur party isnt already fighting.

Lets not forget we also had DBZ and Metaphor drop recently, people are going to game hop its only natural.

posting this here too since yet another players dropping thread:
noone seems to think people are taking breaks from the game, or the fact they have school or work, nope, totally must be they quit the game and left entirely...
in my case, I took a break for a few days, then I wanted to play last night but had work today, now will be playing a little tonight to unlock the second boss raid, then will be farming it like crazy starting monday. since I want my characters level 30 for those passives.
