How many subs does it take?

Quote:I think when it went down in the EU it had more than 100 subs left really. There was no promotion at all and in only a free countries the EU version was playable with an IP-block in place. The lack of promo and split launch killed the game from the start.


When the Acclaim servers went down there were probably around 25 players (give or take) in the EU peek hours on the PvP server (I did not playing during American times nor did I play on the PvE server to see what the status there was). Only so few players you say? Yep, the game got bugged in the end and people had a hard time installing it in the first place. Acclaim did nothing to fix this so alot of people couldn't play.


If you'd put up a f2p server based on a donation system nowadays and have roughly 200 active players, then I'd say a donation mark between 5-15 euro on a monthly basis by 10% of the playerbase would do to keep it and the login server online and safe for the future.


Don't shoot me on the numbers, I can be wrong.


that's not to bad i mean 10% of 200 is 20ppl that's not to bad it sounds reasonable and if whoever republishes it actually gets some word out about it, makes a facebook page and put some advertisements, and maybe a review or two on well known sites and im sure they could get at least 500+ people and 10% of that is 50 people which is better and if that's enough to support a single server im sure the game with the right publishing could really go somewhere.
