I just know that this game sold no where near 300k units that weekend.

And if ur lvl 1 acc was at 300k before the weekend.
What sales did u estimate from that figure? More? the same, or less?
And if ur lvl 1 acc is now at 600k. Does the same apply? Because in that case, the game must have sold 500k or even more.
Or maybe 100k units were sold (would be a high number)and now everyone of them made 3 accs to be in the online ranking.


As u see. Nothing make sense




What doesn't make sense is your downplay of anything Sony.

You just know because you have tracked its sales, including digital? This is the same "know" you used in your logical discussion over the Sony shipments, that states your wishes as reality based on evidence and other people evidence as conjectures? I have seen it before and wasn't impressed over your conclusions.

VGC had the game at about 670k for the week before BF when the ranking was around 300k. I would think it was a little overtracked, but maybe half the players only entered the game...

Now we have at least another 300k new accounts on the DC... so a double in the fanbase is unlikely (and I didn't claimed that, I claimed 35% increase in the total, and the only report we have is a 999% on UK, so I don't know what is your source), but even more unlikely is everybody before this weekend had 1 acc but suddenly all the new "100k" buyers decided to make 3 accounts just after buying the game and you call that logic...

Why this desperate need to downplay anything Sony do?

I don't downplay Sony
I just tell u when u'r being wrong with ur praising Sony, or theire first party games in this case ;)

We know Driveclub sold more than 50k and way below 70k last week in UK
Not more not less. No reports of great Driveclub bunde sales outside of UK. But no problem. We just can wait for the other countries to report in the Pal charts, if Driveclub will raise there too, or not. I doubt that, because there were no other no brainer deals and that caused the bump in UK.

And now u want to claim a 35% increased userbase over the weekend based on oline rankings.
We dont even know the acutal userbase. Or do u use VGC numbers for that? Because they are wrong: Driveclub fist month sales in the US according to VGV: 209k. The actual NPD number is 48k

There were only 2 counties, where Driveclub sold decent.
UK and Germany.




No worshiping Sony (and this game aint first party altough it is exclusive)... funny you say you aren't downplaying when almost all your posts end up in something negative for Sony.

You don't have the digital numbers even when they release chartz for PAL regions, and VGC won't be a good tracker as everybody knows.

I'm not betting on VGC numbers to claim a possible increase of 35% on the weekend, I'm looking at the raise in the ranking numbers... but you know you could try to give a better alternative instead of "100k users all made 3 accounts".

And you know it sold decent based on what?

You always claim to know things and all but never showed even a shread of evidence.
