Forums - PC Discussion - Can WOTLK take on Halo 3 1st day sales?

No I don't usually make any such forms of predictions, but after learnign how much BC sold on day one (2.4 million, 3.5 mil for the firs month) I just got around to wondering. The 2.4mil for BC was when the subscriber figure was at around 7-8 million. Of course there were a lot of returning players too since that number is only active members. Right now it's 2 years later, there are 11 million active subscriptions and I'm estimating several million people who have the game but just aren't playing, possibily planning on returning with WOTLK. Given the far more massive player count now compared to 2 years ago I'm thinking that WOTLK will give Halo 3 a run for its money. Anyone one else wanna chime in with opinoins, burns, support, w/e?

Less than one day, many copies have already been leaked before this launch, but I'm pretty sure my college will be as if a bomb fell on it...

Is it getting a worldwide launch?  I want to say China didn't get the Burning Crusade for quite some time, and that constitutes a lot of their userbase.



This may me silly of me...but whats WOTLK?

Wrath of the Lich King.  The new World of Warcraft expansion.

Blasphemy !!! It's the newest Add-On to World Of Warcraft.

 

Not that I'm interested in the game. (I think it's silly, totally overrated and makes many player addicted/dumb)



Wrath of the Lich King. The 2nd expansion to WoW. Also yeah, China didn't get BC for a while and it sold that many, I'm not so sure it's launching in china this time around either. If it's a global launch then I'd be willing to bet my left and right nuts, and all my limbs that it would completely demolish Halo 3 sales. However since I'm not sure I can't make that claim.

 

@Barozi, the game is actually a very good RPG in its won right. Good progression and fun to use skills. Kinda don't like the auto attribute point distribution, but meh.

Don't worry I didn't know what it was either.  Nor do I know what this BC is.

Ah yes...I was thinknig its WoW but wasnt sure. Or it could have been Starcraft 2 considering those are the only 2 games that could match Halo 3 sales... thanks to Koreans :)
