Saw someone say that our latest update was a failure because we "only had 760,000 players online" when last weekend we had 1.6 Million. Incredible how quickly people adapt to new realities - 760k is higher than the CCU has ever been except for last Saturday's amazing record break
We celebrate numbers, but numbers aren't everything. The problem with caring too much about ever-increasing numbers is the same problem as capitalism - eventually the numbers go down, and that's somehow seen as failure, instead of a continuation of success
I am under no illusions: the numbers will go down eventually. This is okay - numbers usually go up during summer, down when school starts, then back up during winter holidays. So this whole sad situation purely in terms of numbers is like Summer arrived a few months early
Also most industry people know this, but CCU is typically a bad measure of success. People use it as an indicator because it's often the only publicly available information, but Daily Active Users (DAU), Monthly Active Users (MAU) and retention data are more consistent indicators
If your CCU (Players Online) is 100, that doesn't mean much on its own. Your total daily users could be 1000 people, could be 10,000 but only 100 are online. And peaks are just peaks - snapshots of a moment in time - averages over time are better measures less prone to anomalies
Whoever said that, needs to bare in mind that the live count down made a huge difference. Not all players are on twitter or have social media where they know what to expect in advance. The countdown gave people of all ages a heads up warning that something big is about to drop.
Also the live update was at a time where it was evening in the UK and not and update that happens at 2am.Which would make and impact on players on during the update.
The problem with those people who call it a failure is that they are traders who work so hard just to flex and trade and maybe scam. They sant the best of the best items and now because you made the update, they're mad that you guys made them need more hard work to reach the top
But why I'm now glad and love the update (and also regret hating on it) is because of that. Because the traders made me very angry in the Halloween update (by making you guys delete the shadow dragon gamepass), this update just fixes it for me to get them back
Hey josh can u consider extending 2X I felt sick and I had no time R.I.P lol
They were probably those types which want everything in Adopt Me,but this game is about collecting pets and adopting babies not forced to have neon or meganeons,these people need to understand that not all updates are suitable for everyone!
