Toxic players in retail are going to get a life lesson in classic

By whom? The toxic players in classic? Or perhaps you mean the segment of condescending private server folks who have come around acting like they are somehow more worthy? Face it, there are tools in every shed and the best thing to do is /ignore them and move on.

And yet devs who have access to the numbers indicate the sky is far from falling.

Well then we don’t have to worry about anything then since you can’t ban from RcR, only a GM can do that.

that’s because they’re inflating their profits with cheap short term solutions like store mounts. Classic has more hype than the actual game.

LOL of course they do. It’s called lying to save face and keep people playing. If they told us the real numbers people would jump ship fairly quickly I’d bet

When the topic is subscriber count they’re not talking about microtransaction monetization. You retail haters are funny lol.

Just global raid counts alone show you that the subs are more than 2 million. Thats not counting LFR and players who dont raid at all. Someone did the math earlier and said its likely globally 5 million players.

I didn’t see it as toxic. He’s right.

Ooooh 2 million…They had literally 7 or 8 times that by the time Wrath launched. Even at 5 million that’s still a paltry amount than before Ion and company took over the design team. So not impressed. Classic will likely have 3 to 4 million at launch and has the capacity to grow even higher

Was anyone around in 2010? Panda/Farmville released, top player logged on before buying it, game was clearly nerfed, 20% of the player base quit within a week.

That was only the count of the normal to mythic raiders. Reading comprehension brosef.

Yet 75% of the way through MoP it reached 10 million subs again after a small drop off the quarter before it.

Do you even research before you spout off?

Well no point in being the best if you can’t wave your giant e-peen in everyone else’s face.

Ok and your response to the rest of my post was?? Oh that’s right you just cherry picked

Well yeah, when you cherry pick from mine and completely get it wrong lol. Classic will 2-3 million at launch just from retailers alone. Theres no prediction how many thousands or millions will come back for this. Its not how many play at launch its how many stay playing after the initial month that matters.

I thought people didn’t talk in retail because they are scared of RCR?

Just because you agree with something that is incorrect, doesn’t mean it isn’t toxic.

He’s literally attacking retail and those that play it. Like many of you in this thread are doing.

The very definition of toxic behavior.

Oh you are right about the rebound! Just proved that a Dumbed Down version of the game was needed. Everyone gets a participation trophy.

I think you have a completely different definition of “toxic” than the rest of us.

Correct.

Herod is flooded now, which is a good indicator of popularity but many people wait in the shadows to see if something works before actually joining.

Anthem was a great example of this.
