Trials of Osiris - Population tracking

Here are the population numbers from Destiny Trials Report: Week 1 - 380k players. Week 2 - 340k players (-10% from launch). Week 3 - 300k players (-20% from launch). Week 4 - 278k players (-27% from launch). Week 5 - 235k players (-38% from launch). Week 6 - 245k players (-37% from launch). Week 7 - 205k players (-47% from launch). Week 8 - 189k players ( -50% from launch). Week 9 - 171K players ( -55% from launch) Week 10 - 146k players (- 62% from launch) Week 11 - 164k players (-57% from launch) I’ll drop this here for historical and tracking value. Logically I’m not expecting to see a big change either direction until Bungie implements some changes for improvement. I would love to see them turn it around. I’m still interested in hearing what changes will bring people back, and it’s clear now what keeps players away. It’s impossible to know really how much the account recovery and streamed carries are keeping the population afloat as well as causing damage that makes players not want to participate, but I would assume it’s a factor.

  • The biggest issue is that Bungie clearly didn't do what they said they did, which was to completely rework it and bring it back once it was ready. It's simply Elimination on a smaller selection of maps, with card matching and a terrible reward system. The rewards system for the game mode was broken from the outset (this was obvious from week 1), which destroys the card based matching system immediately. All we have is a more toxic version of Elimination that punishes all but the elite players who are busy farming. Anyone else who wants a reasonable shot at a visit to The Lighthouse needs to rush to get it done on a Friday once it's live, otherwise most needn't bother. They apparently told their select Streamers and Content Creators about its return months and months ago. Why didn't they get them involved and gather feedback before deeming it worthy for release...?
