trouble on my mind
Refuse to lose.

500.000 people bought the game, maybe this is true.

This is my estimate as to how Funcom will make a profit  on AOC

And mind you this a pessimistic view and not optmistic.

I am assuming that it will always manage atleast to have a base of 150K users I feel it will be 200K +

 

  Regular Edition Collector Edition
Cut that Funcom Gets $30 $50
200,000 units sold            10,000,000
800,000 units sold            24,000,000  
     
aditional 100,000 will be sold              3,000,000  
     
     
Total Sales             37,000,000  
     
     
Suscription- Average $15    
1st month 250K users              3,750,000  
2nd Month 225K users              3,375,000  
3rd Month 200K users              3,000,000  
4th Month 175K users              2,625,000  
6th Month 150K users              2,250,000  
7th Month 150K users              2,250,000  
8th Month 150K users              2,250,000  
9th Month 150K users              2,250,000  
10th Month 150K users              2,250,000  
11th Month 150K users              2,250,000  
12th Month 150K users              2,250,000  
Total PC sales            65,500,000
   
Total XBOX 360 Sales  ???
   
Development cost             70,000,000

Now add to this missing element that Xbox360 will bring in with its own subscriptions

Also there will be expansions and more releases.

 

This will become a cash cow for Funcom doesnt matter what come may.
