I just knew OP should have been more specific in the title.  I loved all those too by the way.. except Pong.  Not quite old enough for that. 

Originally posted by Gravarg Finally actual proof of what I've been saying since Xfire was launched...Thier numbers mean nothing.  More people play WoW than all the other games on that list combined, but not if you go by Xfire numbers hehe.

t League of Legends has been a more popular game then WoW for quite some time.

WoW is not even the biggest MMORPG by active players. Age of Wushu has more then 20 millions players in China alone.

Popular in terms of western players players -

 

1.) World of Warcraft (9+ million active players.)

2.) Guild (2+ million active players.)

3.) Eve (500k+ active players.)

4.) Rift (100k+ active players.)

5.) The Secret World (50k+ players.)

 

I've only bothered to mention games I actually like/play, but that's probably very similar to the actual list anyway.

So you count eastern players for Warcraft in your "terms of western players"?  

If Warcraft has anywhere near 3 million western players, I would be surprised.

 And why do people care so much about popular? Only GW2 would be considered a very good game of those top 5......Also if TSW is so popular why is the company gutting its staff and barely in business??

league of legends for me :3

playerbase is expanding exponentially imho

1) LoL

2) LoL

3) LoL

4) LoL

5) LoL

Not a single western game comes even close to it in popularity.

Actually, no it isn't.

Okay, I failed and gave global numbers when I said western.

Still, the list is exactly the same in western countries, except with lesser numbers, so yeah, both your posts were irrelevent.

only upset about spending my 60$ on game not worth any better most of A+++ FREE games.

I noticed a lot of players from Asia since like last December, even chat time to time turns into hieroglyphs.
So you, guys, are wrong about NA + EU markets only.

I helped a new guy out yesterday who said he is in Taiwan.

because

1) it is the most popular game (look at the topic title)

2) many MMOs have instanced arena combat a little like LOL.

3) It is listed on this website.

Still, the developers don't consider it an MMO, so it shouldn't be considered one.

The topic title doesn't have to be specific if he was on about MMO's or not, because he posted it in the MMO forums, not general gaming, therefore, he meant MMO's, therefore not LoL.

LoL is listed on this site, as is Diablo 3, neither are MMO's.

Like you said .. lots of games listed on this site are NOT MMOs. D3, LOL, WOT, PoE .. the list goes on and on.

Since this is general discussion of this site, i would interpret that as anything being discussed on this forum goes, particular when the OP does not specify he is talking about MMO.

In fact, i would discuss all listed games here. If you have a problem with that, you are welcomed to ignore my posts.

sorry to asking: but how do you know how many players are active at GW2? I think this game is over hype again and show wrong statistic, as to me 2 mil copies sold is not = 2 mil of active users.

Well it's sold 3+ million copies, and growing in sales every month, so I'm assuming it's around the 2million active players mark, maybe 1-2million, but still no less than 1million active players, my guess though is very close to 2million. (by active I mean someone who has played their account in the last month.)

Maybe you should replace the "western" with "global", because otherwise your numbers are complete nonsense in case of WoW and EvE. But then again in a global context TSW or Rift wouldnt even make it into this list. Maybe not even EvE. And add "or so I wildly guess" behind the Rift, GW2 and TSW numbers to prevent someone might misunderstand your charts as credible data.

 

I'll agree with WoW, Eve and Rift. 

...

Define "western". EVE only has two shards, one chinese and one for everyone else. Some guesses estimate the split to be 1(china) : 4 (world), no hard numbers are known though. The majority of players from the "world" server come from NA and EU, but we also have a very sizeable Aussie minority (western?), Brazil minority (western?), Japan minority (western?) etc.

(EDIT: And ofc I forgot our (also extremely sizeable) everred RUSRUS comrades. ;)

How do you leave Pac-Man off the list?  Or, SimCity for the NES?

This topic wasn't in "General Gaming," it was posted in "The Pub" which is solely for MMO's, so if we're not considering LoL, Diablo3, PoE etc as MMO's then they should not be mentioned in "The Pub."

The OP does not need to specifiy if he is talking about MMO's, if he is posting in the MMO section of the forums.

This is why I'm not ignoring your posts, because they're misleading for this topic, giving wrong information and well irrellevant aren't they.
