    1. Level a guardian fighter
    2. Patch update breaks your most valuable ability (Guard).
    3. Try to research some information about when the ability will be working as it should.
    4. Find out that the developers wont be fixing it cause its supposedly working has intended. WHAAA... My character display his shield up, i can use aggravating strike(a guard only ability) , my guard meter is full but im still taking damage from the front ...
    5. Post this and rage quit.

    Not even sure why I'm bothering to comment but here goes......

    I mean really the game is not popular anymore because MMORPG.com has it ranked 3rd :rolleyes:

    The game will need around 3 months minimum, probably nearer 6 to properly judge the popularity. The standard pattern is highest numbers at launch then dropping off as game hoppers flit to something else. After this period it settles down to a core number which may fluctuate slightly as new classes/updates are introduced, or other games are launched.
    ...............vote for your favourite expansion..........
    "Mod 6. Oh my f****** god. It gutted the game pure and simple. And what wasn't gutted was messed up by the poorly thought out new level cap and equip. The game never recovered from that atrocity".
    ..............not this one then.............

    Well for one thing it had an upsurge in popularity when it "released", as a lot of people, including myself, didn't even know much about this game. Guild Wars 2 on the other hand had some of the craziest hype leading up to its release and the fact the F2P (although B2P to get the game but after that you can get by easily with not spending a dime) system is pretty fair helps keep a large number of people casually playing.

    Considering that there are thousands of MMO in this world... Top 5 or top 10 is still kinda good...

    "Ranked 3rd out of hundreds is unpopular" an idea from the same brilliant minds that brought us "If a game gets less than 8/10 in reviews it's horrible!"

    Considering that rank 1 is Wildstar and that game doesn't even have an Open Beta... I mean, how can you say it's the best game around if hardly there is anyone trying it?
    Characters:
    - Titania Silverblade, the Iron Rose of Myth Drannor (Lvl 60 GWF, Destroyer)
    - Gwyneth, the Cowardly Cat Burglar Drowling (Lvl 60 TR, Saboteur)
    - Lady Rowanne Firehair, Heartwarder of Sune (Lvl 33 DC)
    - Satella, Sensate (LvL 44 CW, Renegade, Non-Active)

    So guildwars 2 is in front of WoW? Oh yea WoW uses MMO champion etc, how one site can tell you anything. But guess it can be seen as small trend indicator so im not totally out playing its value.

    Well that's irrefutable proof!

    I mean games live or die by the MMORPG.com ranking system, the dev should just all go home now!!

    /endsarcasm

    The saddest most loathsome creature on the planet is the pond scum that hang around forums hoping and praying a game or development house they have an issue with fails or closes.

    So for today and today only, Neverwinter is 3rd viewed page on one website and you've determined it isn't popular anymore?

    Really?

    More popular than I thought it would be honestly.

    Looking at that list the first thing that comes to my mind has nothing to do with this game. I'm wondering if ESO will take the hint and be F2P.

    It's a testament to how fun this game is that it's popular at all given the problems. And once they are ironed out, the server populations will explode.

    At least one would hope.

    Ranking in a top 10 listing isn't everything, but I will say that if they don't up their game in regards to customer service then none of the other changes they need to make (speedier bug/exploit fixes, class balance, etc) will matter.

    The survival of an F2P game is not based on a cash shop alone, it's also based on a company's reputation. P2P games give good service because they have to (you're paying for that right), F2P games should because not doing so negatively affects the developers reputation.

    Cryptic have been giving very subpar service thus far, particularly in how bug reports and false bans have been sorted. It's not so much the response time as it is a lack of communication at all. If they want a successful game this can't keep going on. You can look to their other games as "proof" of success (despite lack of service) but that would be a very naive thing to do: Adding one thing to a list of things players hate doesn't help you regardless of previous success.

    You compared a Week to a daily score and cried wolf???
    Don't do numbers much?
    1,466 votes separate #2 from #3 if totaled. show us the results of week 1 and week 2, then you will be comparing apples only.

    Nevermind the fact that the game needs a steady income to survive, but does it really need a huge population? I mean, everything is pretty small and instanced anyway. The only thing that really bugs me are the queue times, and that's more my fault for choosing to be an awesome, awesome rogue.

    Even if those lists didn't actually "prove" Neverwinter's popularity, those "hits" numbers are really low in the larger picture.

    In addition, they are based on only the people who visit that site, not any objectively chosen group of MMO players. Take me, for example. I've been playing graphical MMOs since the early to mid 1990s, I play or try pretty much every new MMO that comes around and I spend money on subs and virtual items, which makes me a worthwhile customer. However, I have never used that site for anything and it's not a place where I hear, learn or talk about MMOs.

    At most, those lists, even if they could not be manipulated, only really say which games are seen as popular by the people who visit that site. And considering they include games that are not even released yet, how meaningful are they really? As a marketing tool, they are useful. As a source for finding worthwhile games that you can play now, not so much.

    Upcoming games that people fantasize about are always getting more attention than games that are playable right now. Every new MMO that is not a complete failure will at some point make top-3 on such lists.

    Please.

    Wait till ESO has a release date.
    THEN check the popularity of this game.

    No one can take any list seriously that has both The Secret World and Star Wars the Old Republic on it.

    In all seriousness though, those lists are just what is trending on that particular site. A lot of factors affect that.
