I actually think I've been fairly charitable to the position that this is a catastrophe, that >>395563402 "Its down more than 50% on PC players."

No reason to be rude. Also keep in mind that they changed their reporting to be more granular starting August, maybe that's why we have these artifacts: >>395564240 >>395564240
I think they are now reporting more than 24 times per day, instead of once per day. Hence they can report lower lows, but not much higher highs, because previously they reported data during already kinda high late EU to early NA hours, which is 4-2 hours before peak time. A problem in this logic would be that we'd need to see higher peaks as well, but then again there's also the people protesting, which could make up the difference.

Look at the past three saturday nights (NA):
Saturday 6th, midnight EST till 03:00 into Sunday: 31k players
Same time on the 30th: 30k
Same time on the 23rd: 35k

Now, remember that EAC was introduced on the 25th, so let's compare last Saturday to the Saturday right before the 25th: 35k versus 31k. Not a big difference, at the very least no "50%" difference.

It'll be interesting to see what the number for that time will be this week.
