Ok, so people who actually use Xfire are leaving the game, but what about the people who don't run Xfire? I don't, because it's a buggy program that lags out your connection, even on broadband. I'm sure many others don't simply because they don't know what it is. People need to evaluate where they get their numbers from and realize it's not the big picture. AoC will, in all likelihood, not fail. Vanguard didn't, and it had a worse launch and gameplay than AoC did and now it's done a turnaround. It's normal for this kind of cycle in the current climate. People expect a 'WoW killer', without taking into account that it's more than likely not going to happen.

So you mean to say there are probably a lot of people that have quit that aren't accounted for because they don't use Xfire? By gods your right, its worse than we thought!

 I think he means that only people that use XFire are quitting, people thta do not use Xfire love the game and many are two and even three boxing it to get their Funcom fix. You see rumor has it that when using XFire and playing AoC Xfire flashes a subliminal message onto the screen too fast for your eye to see which repeatedly says "AoC sucks AoC sucks AoC sucks " until you quit.
