Lastly a post from Frank O’Connor aka Stinkles confirming Halo 5 sold 5 million in 3 months making it the best selling exclusive this generation
(PS Halo 5 has been out for about 8 months) Frank O’Connor stating Halo 5 sold 5M in 3 Months
LOL! You wish it was that high. You probably forgot the Rocket League is now cross platform. That’s the population of PC, Xbox One, and PS4 players combined, not just Xbox One.

Real live tracked from the Game its self…not some third party site

Its only Cross play with PC and doesn’t count PS4 players but here’s the population for PC Steam most played Rocket league at 13 place with 21K PS4 and Xbox haven’t gone cross play and have never shared population

Yeah, but remember Halo 3’s game counter? It showed a population, but that was, I believe, a daily count. Or maybe an hourly one, but not live.

That’s a very good point, since Rocket League is cross-platform after all. How many can we say are on Xbox though? A third of that? I guess that would make roughly 50 000.

I’m telling you that you’re thinking too hard on this. Halo 5 does/will not have a population over 140k. There was an earlier thread from a former 343i employee, and he said the population is about 10-15k average, and 20-25k when there’s new dlc.

Looool the thread from a so called former 343 employee that decided to take the stage of -Yoink!- “4 BLOODY CHAN”…Who was quickly debucked by non other than Frank O’Connor himself on Neogaf Debunked Dude you can’t be for real

That thread is more realistic than Halo 5 having over 100k population. You’re in a dream zone. Just stop.
> 2533274920661939;10:
> Yeahhh… no. Repeat matchups are way too common for a population like that.
That has more to do with the matching system than anything else. Even in unranked matches it still goes by K/D I think. Which means you’re always placed with people who have similar K/D to you.
So if you keep getting repeat matches you have no one to blame but yourself so to speak. Probably depends on the gametype too.
Sorry, but no. Can’t trust a thing 343 says, remember when they claimed that Pro players voted for Breakout as the competitive mode, only to be proven false when the same Pro players conducted their own poll showing otherwise? And Rocket League is Cross-Platform.
Just because you want this game to be successful, doesn’t mean it is.
> 2533274809541057;12:
> Who the hell cares? Play or don’t. Play until you can’t find a match or stop playing before that… What does this change?
Given the thread’s title, why did you open it if that’s your viewpoint?
@OP, thanks for the info. Nice to see the game’s still got a very healthy population. That number is probably the number of different users in 24 hours meaning it’s most likely a few 10s of thousands peak population which is why I can always quickly find a game even with focused search parameters.

It shows how ignorant you are since you didn’t even read the posts…just because you want halo 5 to be unsuccessful doesn’t mean it is

I wish it would also show global distribution. I wonder how the population breaks down by country/region.

That’s a brilliant website and should put the saltiness to bed I hope.
