Sunday @ US/EU prime time... 44 000 players, and this in 2014.

About a year ago it was around 50 000

Two years ago barely 60 000 people.


Killboards all a mess:

Eve-Kill not recording all kills, even if those guys talk all this crap that it is always posted, all bullcrap.
ZKillboard beginning to bug a lot, tons of kills not registered.
Battleclinic dead since years, nobody uses them, I think only some low sec guys lost in the worlds of killboards still use them tho.
Other killboards same thing.

In some killboards I got 2000 kills, in others 900 kills, anotherone 164 kills. All API verified and API registered.

Can CCP make a killboard that works ? I mean this game is 10+ years old and is still a mess with tracking kills, the hell is this?

Also, can CCP stop wasting money and time on Dust and invest time and money into its main game, eve online?

Valkyrie will also be a total fail, let SC do its thing (no, not Shadow Cartel), Star Citizen that is. CCP has 0 chance against Star Citizen in terms of making a sim.

Confirming that EVE's growing subscription base/Concurrent Users means EVE is dying, and that Killmails are ALL that matter in EVE. There's nothing else worth doing in EVE ever.

This game has become the social ground it never claimed to be, the battle is now between the care bears and the griefers. Should either side win the we will all lose.

I was discussing the status quo and recent events with some friends of mine who play other MMOs, and we came around to calling the "carebears" Puritans and the "griefers" Libertarians as we felt it described them more accurately, and differentiated them more fromt he less polarised versions of these factions as theres going to be a more relaxed middle ground on both sides that arent as firey as who were are describing here.

But yes, agreed lol

i dunno about statistics. But how long till we saw last thread "Jita is full"? Actually few last weekends Jita barely gets its maximum. And 1-2 months ago you could see it 'closed' for like half a Sunday.

FW home systems look empty.
Lots of stuff in Jita is cheaper than 1 month ago.
People don't flame about 0.0 wars (what is happening there???).
Warfare & Tactics thread looks almost dead.

So yes, for me Eve Online looks like dying. I hope it is just summer vacations time already started.

Suck more?

First off pictures are worth 1000 words. These look pretty consistent over the last year

Research some?

zkillboard just moved hosts. They are re-importing all killmails.

Eve-kill feeds from zkillboard. Who cares about battleclinic.

I guess it's easier to just B*tch.
