    Can Turbine make that claim if it wasnt true? Seriously, can they? I would think their competitors would be all over them if it wernt. I think the proof is that there isnt another company saying.." umm, we're #2, not lotro". Until I see that, there is no reason not to believe that claim for me personally.
    This sentence says it all

     

    *Comparison data includes subscription-based MMORPG titles developed in North America based on reported data."

    http://www.turbine.com/index.php?page_id=20&pagebuilder[module]=sitearticle&pagebuilder[display_item]=53

    Those are the keywords...so, as long as companies do not "report" (SOE for example), then Turbine has that lead...so, they can only base their data on what is reported...

    MMOG's charts for example show more subs (based on some criteria that we still are not aware of)...so, according to THAT chart...LOTRO is number 2 of North American developed MMO's

    NA developed big name games include...DAoC , CoH/CoV and WoW (at least based on data available...can anyone find any other NA developed games...)

    So...your right...they are not lying, and no one is going to call them on it...

    Cheers!

    no matter what you say eq2 can't  compete with lotro on subscriptions , LOTRO has more then 300 or 400k subscriptions for sure and still growing while eq2 is declining.

     

    Ok...oh...as long as you show me where you received your numbers of course...because you give some sub numbers...all I need is your proof.

    Also, how did you get into EQ2...as I do not mention EQ2 at ALL...so why bring it up?

    Speculation is all you have here...but, thanks for sharing YOUR opinion

    Cheers!

    because you are a eq2 fanboi that spent more time on lotro forums everyone knows that.

     

    and i don't need any proof, just log in on any eq2 server and do the same for lotro you will see the diference, while in eq2 you find like 100 people online, in lotro you would find over 2k people on any server at pick times, last night on windfola were 1890 people online not counting with anonymous and monster play chars and other people on session play, that ones we can't count. note that windfola is one of the less populated servers. Now give us your eq2 numbers.
