Looks like the order might be 1 week and done, not much to extend the legs of the game.

Poor Order. Dropped was going to happen but still. Here's hoping the sequel does better if they do have one. 

 

I'm not sure why people seem to have already made up their mind on the sales of this title when we haven't even got the first weeks numbers in yet. I think quite a few might be quite surprised. It should do over 500k first week.

Is that a rhetorical question?  there aren't too many reasons why a person would make up their mind on first week order sales before we even get numbers!  

 

I agree with you.  It could be over 500k week one.

Why poor? Very few games drop less than 50% between first and second week unless they have a very low start (under 10K for the UK). The Order is possibly the highest launching individual format game for 2015 so far as well as possibly experiencing the smallest 2nd week drop. There's nothing poor about it. It's a fairly good result. The game should easily get past 100K in the UK over time, which is qute acceptable all things considered.
