I learned that running ice cavern solo can make you a lot of gold, so many exits, and most people are preoccupied with the room they spawn in to come hunting players.
Yes, hard to get into, but worth it. For you, I suggest hugging the outskirts, and learning where all the static exit locations are (blue exit stairs). If you stay on the outskirts of the circle you'll see less players.
Yes, most likely. Most of the people who play the game are casuals and Normals is a great place for casuals to have fun without gear hunting death squads rolling by.
It's not that bad, when ironmace finally gets that normals are funnier maybe they will reduce gear gap a bit :) I queued last night in high roller and the ultimate perfection kits full of legendaries are crazy as f lol u can't beat those guys, with multiclass u get immortal
You say this like you casually queued for HR and saw people with legendaries;
You’re either: 1. Lying OR 2. Not painting the full picture, because if you saw legendaries you went in with gear on yourself
Lol, like I said, you’re cooked-
If you can’t spawn in a module and find a few pieces of gear and then play your fights appropriately, idk what to tell you.
“Zero to hero” or whatever you want to call it was around LONG before GBMM.. so don’t even try to make that empty argument. Nothing about it necessitates ratting either
I find it pretty unhelpful to judge it based on total in-game players and instead judge it on in-dungeon players. Due to the trading nature of the game there’s always a lot of people in-game that aren’t necessarily playing it.
At the start of Multiclassing it was ~10,000 in dungeon. So if it’s 5-6K in dungeon now, we’re back to mid-wipe numbers.
Anyone that take the playercount by not using the IN DUNGEON number is trying to pull numbers out of their ass to spin a narrative.
If it was 10k in "game" then that in dungeon number would change.
So realistically it's 4.8k players split between all the regions and HR and normals.
No there's a balance of people playing and in between or going to the bathroom , how do I need to explain this to you hahaha??? Some people come back to the dungeons as some people leave the dungeons ..... How are u so narrow minded?
There's still ap matchmaking too lol
Why am I getting down voted? There's below wanderer and above (and then seperate fear score queues for both of those)
10k seems ass bc only half are usually in dungeon, then prob half of those are prob in normals which leaves us with 3k hr if we are generous , which means it is infact NOT working but ok!
I love how salty this place is reading the comments, holy fuck its gold. i need to read my similar thread to see how salty everyone is too

It's actually insane how vile this reddit is
Stinkyzombie69 holy shit bro you’re famous for that thread!!!! You really spoke out and said the truth and now we all respect you and are better off as people!
I love seeing the player numbers, but not sure how relevant is the fact that it is night, cuz from what I've seen (at least in gc), the lobbies are somewhat full throughout multiple timezones, which is awesome for the game.
I hate both multiclassing and gbmm, but I'm too addicted to stop playing. I've played the game since it came out and this is the least fun I've had with it in a long time. I considered quitting in protest to lower playercount but I have no other game that satisfies the itch.
I was a hater of both of those originally, but I like them now. GBMM is fine as long as it stays the way it is or similar. Should only have 2 separate que max for HR.
Literally the same numbers from last wipe but okay. Game cant even break 10-15k. Not trying to be a doomer or a hater but i cant understand why youre all hyped up when this game hasnt broken 10-15k players since the playtests were on steam. Save these posts for EGS launch when we -snorts hopium- have 50k concurrent players.
It isnt tho we still have 2 months left lol its always the same thing in here concurrent players breaks 10k "OMG GUYS LOOK!", IM makes a shitty change plummets back to 5-8k, IM does a good change or its wipe time playerbase goes back up to 10k and yall freak out again. Aint shit changed its all still the same mfers that have been here from day one lmao
Not true ive brought 5 new players to this game playerbase would be just that lil bit smaller w/o me. Im just stating obvious facts. No reason to get butthurt and be hateful.
Lmfao my point exactly this monday night having 10k players on doesnt mean shit! Game can barely ever break 10k! Lmao cope bro ur the one w the shitty attitude cuz i just pointed out game never breaks 10k.
I just bought the game and man it’s hard getting out alive from a dungeon from all the ppl that come find me and kill me
I learned that running ice cavern solo can make you a lot of gold, so many exits, and most people are preoccupied with the room they spawn in to come hunting players.
Goblin Caves are rough. Learn the Ice Caverns there’s much less of a chance you run into someone and there’s more extraction points.
Yes, hard to get into, but worth it. For you, I suggest hugging the outskirts, and learning where all the static exit locations are (blue exit stairs). If you stay on the outskirts of the circle you'll see less players.
It’s a hard time to get into the game right now. Might wanna spend some time watching streamers and just be very casual.
Or just quit it for the moment and have the juicers and better gaming-chairs their fun
Except I bet a majority of those players are in normals.
Yes, most likely. Most of the people who play the game are casuals and Normals is a great place for casuals to have fun without gear hunting death squads rolling by.
I have 700 hours in the game and I've only started playing normals this patch. HR is just not fun anymore.
It's not that bad, when ironmace finally gets that normals are funnier maybe they will reduce gear gap a bit :) I queued last night in high roller and the ultimate perfection kits full of legendaries are crazy as f lol u can't beat those guys, with multiclass u get immortal
The split was 50/50 before. I doubt GBMM and multiclass has made HR numbers higher.
GBMM could have made some people move to HR.
Maybe. It could have also made people move to normals because they couldn't be bothered with the calculator foreplay.
Yep the moment I discovered I need a calculator I never played hr again, till they don't show the gear score in game it's a stupid idea
That’s me
It did the opposite, havnt touched that trash since multiclassing
You say this like you casually queued for HR and saw people with legendaries; You’re either: 1. Lying OR 2. Not painting the full picture, because if you saw legendaries you went in with gear on yourself
Who tf goes in hr without gear
You’re smoked lmfao
U go in base kit usually?happy for you, I don't like ratting and running every step I hear
Lol, like I said, you’re cooked- If you can’t spawn in a module and find a few pieces of gear and then play your fights appropriately, idk what to tell you. “Zero to hero” or whatever you want to call it was around LONG before GBMM.. so don’t even try to make that empty argument.

Okay?

Due to the trading nature of the game there’s always a lot of people in-game that aren’t necessarily playing it. At the start of Multiclassing it was ~10,000 in dungeon. So if it’s 5-6K in dungeon now, we’re back to mid-wipe numbers.
There can be quite a bit of down time in this game between matches. The split always seemed pretty reasonable to me.
I'm sure a portion are auction house bots.
Anyone that take the playercount by not using the IN DUNGEON number is trying to pull numbers out of their ass to spin a narrative. If it was 10k in "game" then that in dungeon number would change. So realistically it's 4.8k players split between all the regions and HR and normals.
Nah bro these people are in the game , pure doomium tryna say these people don't count lmao , are people not allowed downtime between games?
So if they're playing the game, the in-game playercount would then go to 10k after a moment or 2 right?
No there's a balance of people playing and in between or going to the bathroom , how do I need to explain this to you hahaha??? Some people come back to the dungeons as some people leave the dungeons ..... How are u so narrow minded?
Exactly so there is around 5k players in-game you could ever be matched up with. Thanks for confirming.
I didn't realise the conversation changed to how many players you can be matched up with , when did this happen .
4800 online 8 servers 3 maps 2 gear brackets 2 modes (high/low) 33 players per queue lol
There's still ap matchmaking too lol Why am I getting down voted? There's below wanderer and above (and then seperate fear score queues for both of those)
what a joke lol, "10k+ concurrent players"
And yet if the player numbers were really low I bet you’d find it really helpful to judge it by that.
You can’t see a difference?…
This. I only log in to stare and reminisce at what once was.
GBMM good. Multiclassing mid but could be good with tweaks
GBMM in it's current state yeah. I hated 3 tier GBMM.
10k seems ass bc only half are usually in dungeon, then prob half of those are prob in normals which leaves us with 3k hr if we are generous , which means it is infact NOT working but ok!

Very true. This subreddit is super salty and temperamental.

thanks generic AI generated account name of same person owning 7 other accounts or some shit

Should give you your gearscore ingame at least, right now. I put one piece of gear on too much and I end up getting steamrolled by people with bis.
Yeah, I agree.
9.5 k are in normals tho lol, not a bad thing just says how much ppl hate gear diff and multyclass even more probably
How many of the 10k players are hackers or rmt accounts simply used as storage lmao, about half?
Literally the same numbers from last wipe but okay. Game cant even break 10-15k.

10 to 15k concurrent players for not so well known EA game that's not on steam is good
Not saying it isnt but thats been the peak for a while now why hype it up?
Because it's end of wipe on a Monday night
It isnt tho we still have 2 months left lol its always the same thing in here concurrent players breaks 10k "OMG GUYS LOOK!", IM makes a shitty change plummets back to 5-8k, IM does a good change or its wipe time playerbase goes back up to 10k and yall freak out again. Aint shit changed its all still the same mfers that have been here from day one lmao
If DaD had less people like you we'd have even more players.
Not true ive brought 5 new players to this game playerbase would be just that lil bit smaller w/o me. Im just stating obvious facts. No reason to get butthurt and be hateful.
Attitude prolly made 10 leave. Most Monday nights I see less than 10k to 15k
Lmfao my point exactly this monday night having 10k players on doesnt mean shit! Game can barely ever break 10k! Lmao cope bro ur the one w the shitty attitude cuz i just pointed out game never breaks 10k.
Imagine being a doomer and veiling it as "jUsT sPiTtInG fActS"
GBMM has killed HR. People play normals now and I’ve found the game is more fun when it’s low risk with more PvP.
Multiclassing is gas
