Really? We went from over 25K to over 45K… then today down to less than 600… Why was this, Halo 3 is an awesome game! Why did the population drop so quickly?
it is during the week people have work/school plus the population counter is broken so there might be more then what it shows
The servers went down a few min ago, therefore the low population once they got back up again. But it’s not like it was showing the right numbers to begin with, since it usually updates once a day.
I think it resets every 24hrs. But it changes at random times. I’ve seen it change at 10:00am 2:00pm and so on. But yes those numbers are completely wrong. I am expecting it pick up soon.
Population counter has been broken since Reach’s beta.
I’m still amazed people haven’t realized this yet.

Actually, it was working again the other day when I was online; for the first time in 3 years, mind you. Guess 343i didn’t fix it completely…
The population counter is a bit better. I was away for about an hour and it was at I’d say 31830 people, now I got back, went to the main menu and back, and now it’s 34514.
