Fun little chart

Post by **Rollie** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 10:32 am

So I'm still stuck at home, iced in. Car is coated with about 1 inch of ice. No way for me to get to my pre-order BC =(

So anyway, enough crying from me...

Here's an interesting little report I generated this morning:

Realize that this is a rough estimate, but pretty good indicator none the less. Numbers come from the activity times, for all servers, averaged together on a monthly basis, broken down by US and EU.

This is concurrent players. People logged online, in the game.

Interesting, and on par with the growth we've seen in number of servers, will be even more interesting to see how much of a peak we'll see the next month or so...

I actually just got back from braving it out to the new Best Buy in Bee Caves. I'll just have to cancel my pre-order one from EB =)

Yeah... never again at Best Buy. I called in on monday to inquire if they were going to have an early or midnight release and as I asked I was interrupted 2 times with a stern 'No' (from a female nonetheless). After I was done asking I got a re-iteration of the No (which in Spanish is 'No', maybe she was trying to translate it for me). Logically I was hoping for a positive response, and naturally my response would be to follow up and ask at what time they closed... the phone call was disconnected before I could ask.

I called back (missing the last 30 min of 24

) and bitched and got a supervisor on the line. Apparently people dont like to take credit for being rude and lacking courtesy while being in Customer Support for Best Buy. I sent a letter to corporate. Apparently they are unaware that I've bought 2 computers from them (about $4k a piece) and is my nearest geek hub for CD, CDR, DVD... basically 95% of my usual purchases.

Nice chart, can be even better, if you add amount of servers each month. Or maybe even better, same chart, but showing characters online per one server.

That's, if you have some spare time

Characters online per server can be seen just by looking at the activity charts =)

I think he just wants the number of servers that are open at that date next to or under the month.

;P
