Trying to determine the number of global players

RT participation based on Zero Flags used, First Day, Zero score, and preferably close to RT kick off time.

UPDATED 28-11-2022

7-11-2022 5* Buff, No P = 890,763 (Mine)

21-11-2022 5* Bloody, All = 871,810 (from OGdirty1Kanobi)

28-11-2022 3* Rush, No B = 868,861 (@Ruskin505)

Oh Fun! a guessing game!

I guess that there are at least 3.5 million players worldwide meaning at least this many have an account created.
I guess that approx. 30% opt into tournaments each week. 890k or so
I guess that at least 50%, but not more than 65% are active at least 1 time each month.

I guess that approx. 45% are inactive or not logging in at least once a month.

Finally, I guess that we will continue to see OP heroes in an increasing amount of portals for the whales to support, and more inventive ways to retain current players for the whales to play against.

How exact do you want to be?

I took my SS when RT launched. That was 868,859.

Right before I used my flags, it became 868,860.

It’s now 868,861.

As players start using their flags, that number will only increase, eventually increasing to the final placement, with max 1000 points.

It’s intended as a guide to determine the “safe zone” for top %, and also give an indication on participation.

I will update my post to use yours as it’s an update. Heh heh. Thank you

Downloads are currently about 500k monthly. It’s on the low side for this game.

Given that this game is about 5 years 8 months old, downloads should be at least 34m, should be much much more.

Out of that active players are about 1M, give or take @Ruskin505 tracks numbers for MT, Tower, AQ, challenge events, and W3K.

Whether that works backwards to 3.5M active accounts, no one knows.

Your guesses are what this thread is about. We track statistics that indicate active participation. There’s no point in conjecture about the number of inactive players.

If we see roughly similar numbers different game modes, such as RT, Mythic Titans, and challenge events - that is 800,000 to 1,000,000 players - then we can draw some rough conclusions about the trend line of people actively playing the game. That trendline is down, overall.

5-12-2022 4* Bloody, No B = 872,060 (mine)

Safe zone for 1% is still around 8500.

Good luck to all who joined in.

At first I saw the number and was surprised, but then I checked the October 2022 total. It was 744,988. So essentially unchanged. MT is one of the least popular recurring events.

Mythic Titan sees small shrinkage. No surprise.

It didn’t change much after a few hours. Let’s see what the number is close to end of D1.

Update: 13 December 2022, 15 minutes before RT D1 closes

1st day was the worst by far on Friday, terrible aches and pain fever that kept spiking to almost 103 was so weak felt like my legs were gonna give out, but got some Tylenol Gatorade and soup in me fever finally started to die down, now its gone without Tylenol… ive had 4 shots including the virulent strain Pfizer my dr who i spoke to Friday said sounds like a pretty aggressive imune response from the vaccines so guess theyre doing thier job, just now am drained… very tired, bot of a stuffy nose and cough but thats about it. The lack of energy is the worst part now

Only had 3 shots. Was due for 4th. Received a visit from C. High fever, sore throat was the worst of it. Was on soup n soft bread for 1 week. Fatigue set in after fever broke. Took me about 1 month to bounce back to normal energy levels.

It will get better. :bouquet:

Yea there are those extreme cases for sure. Hope you guys get back on track soon.

My wife brought it home 3 times from work (she’s an NP) but I’ve managed not to pick it up from her even once. If it’s anything like the vaccine side effects, I’m happy I didn’t. :joy:

Hope yours won’t be a month. I forced myself into my normal routine. Slowly but surely inched my way back into normal life. Body will resist. Mind must prevail.

A boring clean diet, sans alcohol and all things sugary :cry::sob:, helped put me back on my feet. Faster than I thought. I had glandular fever before and suffered from fatigue for > 1 year. Learnt from that experience.
