COO REPORT #31

FROM: COO/VA Hawkins DATE SUBMITTED: 24th April 2016

NEWS

LOC screenshots waiting to be processed: 0 LOS screenshots waiting to be processed: 5 [SALUTE] Welcome to the COO Report! STILL LOW BATTLEFRONT PARTICIPATION Battlefront players are missing, presumed... missing... We continue to have a single Battlefront player. Hopefully some of you guys will get it up and running again, else CPT Aalith will walk unopposed into 1st place! However, without at least a few other players Aalith won't qualify for a DFC, and will have to settle for a lower award. Battlefront is now knocking on the doors of £20 here in the UK. Perhaps once that drops to sub-£20 a few folk may pick it up. If we don't get more players, we'll rethink the Battefront Combat Events, and perhaps just run them as competitions. STAR CONFLICT NEWS Pilots have reported some odd situations in SC of late. Players have found themeselves in T4 ships placed in T1 PvE matches when waiting for PvP matches. This may be an indication of a declining playerbase for SC, and pilots being placed into matches even if there are no other players at their levels available. We will watch for this, and see how it goes!
