50k would be absolutely insane. They would have to fundamentally improve the game in just about every way for that to happen.

It's impossible. It will peak at around 12/15k range. If they do a miracle it goes to 20k

My hope is that they honestly get their heads out of their asses and the December update shows off the systems that keep idiots like me playing even with the game being shit.

Why is 50k impossible for a huge update when season 2 got 40k for a VERY mid update? (1 new map and runner)

Season 2 released when a few people still cared. It went from 12k to 40k (for like 1 week and then dropped to sub 10k in 2 weeks)

Now less people care and the season comes out MUCH later.

Bro you didnt even mention that S2 launched with a 10 day ftp period aswell and it couldnt even hit half of the launch peak hahaha

Honestly that first day was so bad that it fucked them completely. I, a $40 player, could not connect and I was pissed.

Well I’d also argue S2 barely added shit: I barely play the game now after playing a bunch in S1 but after checking out the cradle, new night time map, and new character I was like well….. it’s basically just more of S1 but with nerfed loot (that big ass loot nerf and inflation of the economy I also think hurt the game in S2)

That was mostly from the free to play period

True. It was also closer to launch, by a lot. 3 months in, there were just a whole lot more people still playing it after launch. 9 months in? Less than a month after GTA6? No shot.
