ED Steamcharts "4,000" active players. Pathetic

I can counter this easy. First of all, check the steamcharts. I didn't pull the info out of no where.
Second, the other half of the audience where folks who had hoped there was hope coming!
I know I stopped playing ED but I always check the forums to stay updated and watch whatever streams they have just to see what's going on, but as far as investing time into this game (already invested 1000+) that's a no go.

Let's talk about Steam!
I 'member beta testing Steam, then waiting foolishly for a few months for my id/key to roll into the production version.
It never did, which resulted my getting a higher Steam ID than it should have been.
I never thought in a million years that it would become so popular, and entrenched into gaming.

I suspect the majority of players don't use steam.
Even if you do purchase/download via steam, you get the normal launcher that doesn't open steam before launching the game in the same way most games do.
Steam simply has no idea what you're playing, which is no bad thing in my opinion.

What a mean spirited post. I bet you're fun to be with at parties.
it would have been 4001 the last couple of days, but i was getting laid.
Has someone linked to the latest FDev quarterly statement yet? The company is doing just fine.
Also, it's been awhile since 2.2 dropped and the height of the alien ship madness. A modest reduction in traffic between feature releases isn't surprising.

Just checked. Those pitiful 4000 active players is 400% as much as the latest call of duty.
Woe is us.

Statistics. The art of either looking at numbers correctly to get worthwhile data, or the art of manipulating numbers so they say what you want to say.
Streaming probably isn't at its peak unless there's new features. And not all streamers might have beta access, so we might see a spike in a little bit there when 2.3 hits.
Anyway, quoting numbers that are questionable in of themselves instead of discussing the real issues doesn't make good points. There's plenty to critique or compliment without having to grab at straws for a topic.

That's not fair, maybe not all CoD players use Stea....oh, right.
Fake news.
Steam numbers always drop in front of an update. Some are beta testing, some people just lay it aside till after the release comes out. Wait till patch day.

News flash: The gaming world doesn't revolve around steam.
I get so tired of seeing people make these threads as time goes by, it really doesn't mean anything.
Especially for games like Elite where release on steam came after the full game release.
Steam stats are only relevant for games that are *only* available and have only ever been available through Steam and Steam alone.
I myself am not a steam user.
If there's something you're not happy about, express it in a direct and construtive manner. Quit making these passive-aggressive doomsayer threads with no basis in reality.

And wait for the first week to pass...
Exactly.
Yes; what a truly pathetic and trolling thing to say. But, unfortunately that's about all these forums are good for now.... troll threads.
Word.
Passive-aggressive whining. These trolling threads are a pathetic and worthless attempt at "gas-lighting" but OP'ing this rubbish doesn't make it true.
