It would seem the latest event in Armored Warfare, the Storyline Campaign, has revealed some sobering numbers. Just over 500 players completed all three main objectives of the main event, 151 completed the Desert Rush bonus objective. Read more about that and the thoughts/opinions from the NA/EU playerbase here.
Far from being a definitive "State of the Game" sign, it does show a grim sample size from the current situation surrounding the health and well being of Armored Warfare. Although the 151 player count for Desert Rush won't change, the 500+ player count for the main event could go up, slightly, before it's all said and done.
Why such the low numbers? This could very well be a gauge of the amount of new/retaining interest the game has, fallout from the controversial changes to the design team and the content found in the last batch of updates. Also, due to the restrictions, namely the specific vehicles to be used, in conjunction with the with the limited gamemodes where those activities would be considered valid, many just didn't even bother.
Now, there is another bonus objective and it makes playing a lot more worthwhile, in my opinion. The restrictions have been relaxed greatly and appears to be fairly easy to manage, if one has the time to do them. Read more, including how to access the counter on the profile here.
And good things (depending on your perspective) keep on rolling in.
For a limited time, the tier VII premium Object 187 Soviet/Russian Main Battle Tank is part of an offer, check that out here.
As tempting as it looks on paper from me, I think I will hold out for a sale, or all the currently unavailable tier VII premiums to make an appearance )hopefully, both). In the meantime, let's roll out the Challenger 1 Wolf and see how it fares since the latest hotfix patches....
