EVE isn't dying, she's just been neglecting me for a few years and has been seeing two other men in the mean time. It's always been a roller coaster relation but I've been able to deal with that, right now I'm not entirely sure we're still a couple and I get the feeling that she doesn't have a clue on it either so she can continue to let it fester some more resulting in a lot of door slamming, heated arguments and probably ending in some retraining orders, OR she can choose for me without holding back or the need for "ifs and buts", no secrets. If she decides to choose me then it's going to take a long time for her to win back my trust for us to move on but whatever her choice may be she better do it fast cause I won't wait forever.

either way, she better make me some damn sammiches right now.

Excuses are the refuge of the weak.

OMG -- EVE is dying every day from 12:00 to 13:00... and then it comes to life again at 14:00.

2012 will be an interesting year for the game. I predict that Bioware's new game wil pull a bunch of folks out of EvE for a while till they get bored of the themepark. I expect EvE to survive this period, but its gonna be hard on CCP's pocketbooks unless folks stay subbed while they play with laser swords. I expect many folks would unsub their alt accounts and maybe keep a main account running during this time.

It makes me wonder if CCP smells this in the wind, and that's the reason for them focussing so hard on their other MMO title (WoD) right now.

Because the people that posted the threads walked away for a couple months and now that a new expansion is coming those same players are logging back in with the same old rhetoric.

I was playing the weekend before last and noticed the PCU was up.

I was playing this past weekend and noticed the PCU was up.

I've been coming to the forums since '09 and there has beenan eve is dying thread every day.

I looked at the chart you posted and noticed there were about a dozen drops in PCU since the begining.

I looked on eve search and there have been "eve is dying" threads since the begining.

The only logical conclusion is that eve is dying.

Next poster can have my stuff.

are serious business sir.

Still steadily dropping since Incarna.

I'll wager that while they're maintaining their new player turnover / retention there's a lot of disgruntled older players getting fed up with the broken promises and "soon".

At least the "but it's summer, that's why its dropping, everyone's on holidays" argument has fallen by the wayside.

String of underwhelming expansions, endless delays of cool stuff, replacing functional borderline decent stuff with wannabe cool semi-functional (or non-functional) junk, long-standing gameplay balance issues, focus on frivolous matters, MISGUIDED AND/OR DISCONNECTED-FROM-REALITY CCP LEADERSHIP RANKS...

...ok, EVE is not about to become dead too soon, but it's certainly in a noticeable decline, and that decline might be accelerating in spite of half-assed appeasement "damage control" attempts.
More and more people stop believing the hype and adopt a "I'll believe it when I SEE it" attitude, with optional "and maybe I'll be back then" cancellations.

I, for one, kinda' stopped caring TOO much. I still care a little, but less and less every day.
I'll stick around until they close the doors though, because sadly everything else sucks even more.

The only thing I see is a decline in players because of the summer and some people might have unsubbed some alts because of the eurocrisis.

Cause it is the same graph as the year before.
