NC 4th Quarter 2006 earning report

Not sure if this (http://www.ncsoft.com/fileupdown/upload/EN_NCIREarningRelease/062Qearnigs(ENG).zip) is of interest to anyone.

What exactly is monthly access? Actually active and logging-on accounts?

If yes, does that not make us almost half the size of Korea? O_o

Your looking at the wrong line for korea ..Move one up from the bottom.

Well, I only remember noting concurrent users. If you look at that then we are about 1/3 of Korea in size. Not sure what Monthly access means.

I found it funny (interesting?) the amount of Lineage (not Lineage II) users in the US as compared to korea. The Korean users seem about the same as L2 (over 100,000) but the US users were only about 2,000 plus!

Anyone happen to save the other reports? So we as a player base can watch our numbers, as thats the only way for us to know how we are doing.

Well, they actually lost a nice chunk of Internet Cafe' users this quarter in Korea.

On the Operations Metrics sheet though, thats a good sign. L2 NA had a good summer apperently. Up 17k Monthly access compared to June of last year.

All you need to know is on the report. L2 is doing very well in NA imo, NCNA is not but thats due to unwise investments such as auto assault.

Yea....that bombed obviously lol

Sadly we're still only 83K active accounts in NA. Should have alot more.

7k less acconts like 10% drop or so since the first 3 months, duno if i wuld call that good.

Should have alot more, but surprisingly it's more than at Launch. I'm sure less people play L2 now because more people 2 box = count as 2 accounts. But even maintaining the amount of subscribers as when a game first started out is an amazing feat. But it just shows how much L2 has improved as a game over the years. It's a far more enjoyable game than Chronicle 1, although Castle Sieges seemed to lose priority recently, castles aren't what people seem to want these days and castle sieges seem to be fought outside the siege grounds even.

I noticed the big influx of Taiwan gamers.......hmmm.

Quite frankly, I could swear there are less people in game than when we started. Granted there is more land mass for people to spread out but I remember when I couldn't recognize anyone in a city. Now I always see the same "faces".

Heck, I'm starting to recognize the farmers now!

Yeah, this is a **** shame since I love the sieges.

I'm hoping you mean the same names....Cause we all have the same faces :p

It's a good thing you recognize the same faces or there would be tons of rerolls. Not everyone sits down in town and sells stuff. The people who do you see very often. As well you see the same people if u hunt in the same area repeatedly. A nuker soloing might never see a swordsinger who exp's in parties all the time.

Thats one thing I like about L2 over other titles, there is a recognition factor and people know who you are. In WoW your just another stranger and everyone hangs around their friends in TS.
