Title: Trion announces over 1 million accounts registered
Post by: Kirth on February 24, 2011, 10:56:38 AM
"Accounts created" is how they officially worded it, no idea how this translates into actual subs or box sales because I think anyone can create a Trion account.

Cryptic announced 1 million accounts created during the STO launch period as well. Meaningless as a stat unless they also announce sales.

Does the million registered count beta accounts? Because I'm in that pool for RIFT?

I'm not sure what it means either.

It counts everyone who signed up to a RIFT account, which would include beta applications since (iirc) you needed one to apply.

Useless stat, but people actually appear to be playing this game and enjoying it.

Yeah, again, it just seems kinda silly that they pulled the fake-million announcement when they will probably actually have the real-million announcement soon.  Granted, that may be partly brought about by the fake announcement, but... I dunno, I think this game was pretty much guaranteed a strong launch.
