Guess the game doesn't have much of a presence in the far East or ANZAC any more. Not that those places ever had a huge one.

A considerable number (maybe even majority?) of the off hours / 'US late night' population had been actually Americans and Europeans (like myself, I used to start my AH day at late morning / early noon, 11AM here is 4AM in Dallas).

Sure hope AH3 goes live soon.

LOL

OK so there wasn't anyone to shoot at...there was just swarms of rooks and nits attacking us at A11 for the entire time I was on...I was there I saw it...I saw rudeboi there too...and there was a fairly good size ground battle going on

The numbers were mid to upper 40s for each side the entire time I was on...

Just because you can't find the fight you want doesn't mean there was no one on playing...

Hell I had 5 squaddies on...the 162 PHs had more than that...the 56th had 4 or 5 guys on....i look at the roster and see who is on quite often....don't think that you can convolute the numbers of people that were actually playing during that timeframe with your bias

Also don't think that all those playing are on the boards defending themselves from people that say the game isn't fun anymore with low numbers

The game is still fun, but apparently not fun enough for enough people to keep it from being a charity case at this point.

I am very skeptical that graphics are the reason so many have left.

Everyone burns out eventually with a game.......you are addicted to start.......after a while it becomes just more of the same all the time......then you spend less and less time in the game.....and then you are gone onto something different.....
The younger generations are not interested in this type of game anymore.......they would rather chase pokemon around outside on their smart phones......so once the old timers eventually burn out....there is no one left.......:old:
