Ooh, mama like.
Nice work!

@Avalanche Get rid of the "30,000+ PLAYERS" statement. It's a blatant misinformation. It will give people vastly different expectations to reality.

Todd wishes Starfield could even come close to Discovery

I agree with this, seeing the 30k players number there and then sub 50 online in the server for most of the day can be a little jarring at best and feel like a lie at worst.

Just adding "registered" to that line about players should be fine, as it's both eye-catching but also is close to truth

Beating the drum now, but I also agree.
People aren't as smart as they like to imagine (as evident by some recent forum stuff by new players).
Avoid setting false expectations like this.

Even that is deceptive. Companies that employ this trick usually still have thousands (perhaps hundreds of thousands in some cases) of players playing across multiple servers. Discovery can't even halfway fill its only server on most days.

Yes, we know, it'll get removed.

Can't do anything now that the feedback period for the build is long gone. I've now left Disco for RL things. Rename it to 30k Installs or remove entirely. You'll have to get Alex to help with whichever. Enjoy the new site
