Activision Blizzard Fourth Quarter Calendar 2013 Results Conference Call today...

[warningsigns]

So did WoW gain or lose subscribers during the 4th quarter of FY2013?

My prediction is lose of about 200,000 or 300,000 subscribers.

[Ryme]

What were the subs at last? I'd wager a 6-10% loss to that number.

EDIT: This is why I don't gamble! Glad to hear the beginnings of stabilisation.

[snackfeat]

Last quarter it was at 7.4 million i think?

[Deleted]

lost subs, probably 1million lost. no patch in a while, people will unsub until WoD release.

[Drayarr]

Im thinking along the same lines as Ryme, 750k-1mil sub loss.
Hoping for beta announcement this week(end)

[warningsigns]

As of September 30, 2013, Blizzard Entertainment’s World of Warcraft remains the #1 subscription - based MMORPG, with approximately 7.6 million subscribers.

I'm getting pretty close to unsubbing until WoD too. I'm sure there are many others who feel the same.

[lolcats121]

i hope they lose alot, idk why but i do.

[Deleted]

i unsubbed until WoD, SoO clear so nothing to do. (and waiting for ros )

i think a 300k-600k drop is possible

[-Superman-]

6.5M active and profits are up.

Never understood people who deliberately wished ill-will on anyone. It's bad Karma.

Wishing that a fire gets lit under their ass isnt ill will. Blizz is essentially treading water. They wont have a nother TBC/WOTLK surge until that happens.

Smarten up man.

[warningsigns]

The investor call is at 1:30 PM PST...So about 6 hours and 45 minutes away...

[Joathen]

Guessing a loss in the realm of 300-650k Subs, but with higher profits cause of the BlizzShop offerings.

[Deleted]

100k-200k drop in subs, increased profits. Patch 5.4 hit two weeks before the start of Q4, with SoO being gated until mid-end October. I see them keeping subs stable till Christmas, then a not too small drop following the festive period.

[Kurgulok]

I predict a small drop (~200k) due to the lack of content and no recent news about WoD. Free 90 boost prediction for pre-purchasers in 5.4.7. will definitely bring the numbers up a bit if it happens, though.

[Common Sense]

God help my sanity on this day if I decide to stay on the forums. God help us, everyone of us, who aren't rabid or obsessed with a company's demise. On topic, I predict 200-400 thousand fewer subs as SoO is still only 4 1/2 months old. Plenty of people still progressing.

[Lightwysh]

I sense a slight increase... From my perception I've seen quite a few people resub lately, Friends list, Guildies, even the local /2 troll. Most all are prepping for WoD.

[IllidariCouncil]

Id say its around 6.5, Once ESO releases it will drop and steady out at around 5.5-5.7mil

[Thralls Balls]

I hope the numbers are WAY down, just because of how they handled this expansion towards the end leaving us with nothing. ( for those of us that don't PVP )
