Diablo 3 - Activision Blizzard Q4 Conference Call - Diablo III Planned for Q2 2012

WoW stabilizes over 10M subscribers, down 100k in Q4 2011
Activision Blizzard latest earning call revealed that World of Warcraft lost 100,000 subscribers last quarter, following the loss of 800k subscribers announced last quarter and 300k loss from the quarter before that. The game lost 1.8M Subscribers over the year but the number seems to stabilize over 10M and it wouldn't be surprising to see it go back up with the release of Mists of Pandaria this year.

World of Warcraft now has 10.2M active subscribers.


  • World of Warcraft lost 100,000 subscribers, down to 10.2 million. This was a total lost of 1.8 million for the year.
  • Diablo III should launch in Q2
  • More than one million Annual Passes have been sold in the West.
  • Blizzard is happy with how the subscription numbers held up during the most competitive quarter ever.
  • When asked about churn since the competitor's launch, "December was a good month for us."
  • There are ~50 million active Battle.net, Call of Duty multiplayer, Call of Duty Elite, and Skylanders WebWorld users.

Big numbers.

World of Warcraft lost 100,000 subscribers, down to 10.2 million. This was a total lost of 1.8 million for the year.

Lost a lot of PvP friends last year ALMOST all of them.

Like the way you can lose 10% of you player base,more then 75% likely to be pvp players over MMR and other things.Then say nothing is wrong with MMR in arena seasion 9/10 then 1 million PvP players down lets reset MMR in seasion 11....You started a bushfire and attempted to put it out with a bucket of water-resetting it then just told those players that quit over it.blizzard had been wrong and hiding it.

"wouldn't be surprising to see it go back up with the release of Mists of Pandaria this year"

Good luck with that.Some if not most went out with sour grapes.One might not want to taste those grapes again.
 
idgaf about wow subs. WHY AM I WAITING UNTIL JUNE FOR D3 GIVE ME MY GAME BLIZZARD I WANT IT NOW GIVE IT TO ME I WANT IT
 
Diablo III should launch in Q2

Lol "Should" being the key word.And What's 4 months on over 4 years?
 
When it was years away, and they delayed it another year, I was like "meh, whatever". But getting to 2ish months away and having it delayed for that time agani (if not twice over) is gutting. It's the difference between a boss evade bugging at 80% health and a boss evade bugging at 10% health. It's frustrating as hell, and you really wanna punch a baby.
