If 6 million subs are in China, and they are still on Lich King, (and presumably not "burning through 'expansion' content at a rapid rate"...)
Then the loss is in Europe, The Americas, Australia, and Southeast Asia.
600,000 of those 6 million is 10% of Cataclysm players.
And that is from December to the end of March, which still leaves April and 10 days in May to be accounted for.
Wow. Really good point.

Not enough new content in Cataclysm to justify the price of the expansion IMO. The game is still fun and I'm enjoying leveling up alts and experiencing content that I never did before. That said, Cataclysm was a huge disappointment, especially considering the massive amounts of additional content added with the BC and Wrath expansions.

I am guessing there will not be an appearance by certain people on this thread now that the subscription decline has been acknowledged by none other than the CEO.
Can't really deny the obvious any more, eh?

Rift got up to a million subs did it not? Not unreasonable to think a good chunk of the 600k came from competition being released.

I have no doubt that subscriptions have dropped. They always do a few months after a expansion releases after people go through the content. It does mean that it is likely under 12 million though now, which up until this announcement was no certainty. Whether that is because a new MMO released or that Cataclysm failed who knows. I do know certain people here will spin as Blizzard failure, but that should not surprise.

You know... I just have to wonder with all the trauma of natural and man made disasters going on, that those would be a result of some loss of players as well..

I'm curious to see if the moron fanbois will come here and admit their own stupidity now, or will they still try to spin it.
