None of that means anything....Just doing everything but proper numbers to objectively measure the games success.

It means that's it's extremely likely that the game was a success and that you are in some serious denial. I don't think that I've seen as much cope on the Steam forums as I'm witnessing now.

It's funny when you control a platform that does not release public numbers you can tell anything is a suceess, look at snow white "number one in the world " they said. So if you want to talk about cope , it's on your side because clearly in a few week when they will announce the layoffs and the plans to merge with tencent, you will still scream about the success ? Please do continue.

Why is it so important that we accept 2 million "players" is a resounding success? What's your stake in all this?

You are missing the point…

You shouldn’t be flat out claiming its a failure because in your personal opinion 2 million players before peak time isn’t good enough.

Peak time was last weekend. 2 million players =/= copies sold.

Yes, peak time was last weekend, AFTER they announced the 2 million players.

And i am aware players and copies sold are two different things. Notice how i specifically said “2 million players” in my initial post?

Read more comprehensively next time before coming in with “corrections” that aren’t applicable.

Claim it's a success
Pretend players equal sales
Blame the chuds
Downplay the failure (you are here)
Forget about the game

Ubisoft's most wish-listed game and best launch on Playstation store. But somehow it's not a success.

xD where you read that on internet? they ar all sold to make money never listen to reviews its a personal opinions shared dosen't mean it is good because someone said so....buy it play around 40 hour then make a statement or be a goat.

True Dragon Age Veilguard did better

Took 2 months for Veilguard to hit 1.5 million players.

Took Shadows 1 week to hit 3 million players.

The argument is that Veilguard sold more copies and made more gross revenue.

Players is a vague and pointless metric on its on... what does it mean? Unique interactions? Do 4 profiles on the same PS count as 4 players? Obviously free/promotional and rentals count.. etc etc

You're confusing what all those terms mean. Total players is very different from concurrent players. Both are very different from sales.

Listen, they're using bots to pump the numbers. They saw what happened to soyny with concord so now the playbook is fake subscribers and hope gamers are dumb.

Yes. And they're controlled by alien lizard people who eat babies and poison us with chemtrails.

[RedCrownedCrane]

The assumption that the PC playerbase must reflect the console playerbase is a strange one. Some game series do better on console than on PC, and vice versa. Plus with the game being available through Ubisoft's sub service, it's natural a lot of PC players wouldn't even play it on Steam.

Before responding, please understand I do not care about Ubisoft's finances. I am not interested in defending some corporation's honor. I care about the game itself as a creation of the artists behind it, and the game itself is wildly successful and has found fandom. It's not a case like some other Ubi games that just completely missed the mark. Like, tbh, now that they finally got a ninja AC game out, and it's good... I don't care what happens to Ubisoft anymore! I just like this game in particular, lol.

Eh, let's not go down this path in a topic where we're bringing up other games that are just as likely to have botting to boost player numbers as a counterpoint to AC's steam concurrent player numbers.

Do your numbers account for Ubisoft connect user's and console editions ?

[I'm Not Buying A Game Ever Again]

It'll easily double those numbers once they drop the DLC, I jut feel it...

[melta]

ubisoft loves to play the numbers games with player counts and active players and all that nonsense to obfuscate the fact there are far less people playing their games than actually are. It's very similar to what social media companies like twitter and facebook do to garner bigger bids from advertisers. In reality, the state of their game suck, and they will not even ban people unless it makes waves publicly.

[melta]

It's obvious most people on these forums aren't savvy investors or possess worldly knowledge, but you can easily search "ubisoft stock" right now, and see for yourself that they are down 80% over a 5yr period. They're running on fumes.
