Either DOTA or that expansion blizzard is planning for WoW. I guess this means we wont see LotV until... 2016?17? | ||

(1.5M elite subscribers) As a shareholder, at first I was glad to see the number was still at 10.2, but then i noticed the older report date and was a little suspicious. The number does seem to have stopped falling though since last quarter though. SWTOR came out 12/20... so if you played WoW up until then, you didn't cancel until after 12/31. WoW is the gaming industry crown jewel, without it ATVI has a hard time commanding its current market cap. 10 million monthly re-occurring revenue customers is a phenomena not yet repeated in gaming. Take this FWIW, but my brother (who's way into the MMO scene) always says the number of paying subscribers is closer to half that number. He says they inflate it with free offers, counting accounts which aren't currently paying, and a bunch of other tricks. However, I'd love to hear more informed people talk on the subject. | ||

I click on media player and a white window just pops up and nothing happens... has anything else been said other than hots being pushed to 2k13? who cares, if they're right we are more than a year away from it, so we all better don't give a fuck about it. better things to do than wait 2 and a half year for some 30, oh no sry, 20 missions with bad storyline... | ||

Well, ya a lot of them are in china and pay for time not monthly.... whatever the number though, its the biggest revenue engine in gaming and ATVI needs it to keep going strong. | ||
