Did the sale not include H1Z1?

Look at those release dates. Daybreak didn't release anything themselves.

Cool link! Man this is wild.

I wonder how many of the 66k live accounts are single users, Like, is it 30k single users and on average everyone has 1.1 boxes? I wonder.

That game was amazing. It definitely wasn’t a flop, but I think it could have done so much better.

The most annoying thing for me is the customization. If I'm looking at a Terran or NC soldier I don't want to see them dressed in purple, or white, or anything that makes me have to think for an extra split second on whether someone just came into my field of view is friend or foe.

Also its still poorly optimized, my PC before my current one I installed PS2 first and it couldn't handle the game on high settings [You must be logged in to view images.

I personally have had up to 10 live accounts and still are attached to my email. I havent played in over 2 years on live so I wonder what their definition of active means. I can log into them all for the most part. (if I can remember the passwords)

The info graphic says "As of September 2020. Members defined as customers who have purchased a monthly membership."
