In a big win for democracy, Helldivers 2 sales keep rising 3 weeks from launch: "An honest-to-goodness inverse decay curve so far"
Arrowhead's co-op shooter is de🔯fyin𝓰g all expectations

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Helldivers 2 sales keep ♐on ticking up more than three weeks a♔fter launch, and even some industry analysts are dumbfounded.
As noted by analyst , Helldivers 2 sales are defying the conventional wisdom that a new game will typically see i☂ts highest sales in its first week after launch and then gradually dwindle until something like a major update or disco🌞unt inspires a sales bump. Instead, Helldivers 2 sales continue to increase despite no big sale or content drop since its release on February 8. Piscatella refers to this as an "honest-to-goodness inverse decay curve," which is a rare enough thing that he calls it "amazing."
"With an 'inve♔rse decay curve' the trend reverses," he explains. "It's rare, particularly for bigger games. Just saying 'growth' doesn't explain the nature - as 'growth' could be temporary, ie from discounting.
"Using the term 'inverse decay curve' denotes that baseline sales are improving, unrelated to short-term things that can impact incremental demand. I mean, or just keep saying it's p🐼retentious or obnoxious that's cool too. Live your dream."
Other folks🦋 in the industry♌ are equally astonished by Helldivers 2's enduring sales success.

Arrowhead itself didn't expect the co-op shooter to be as explosively popular as it has been, as evidenced by the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Helldivers 2 servers 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:struggling severely at launch and for some time beyond as 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:server capacity was raised 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:again and again. As we're still only three weeks from launch, it's anyone's guess what Arrowhead has in store for the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Helldivers 2 roadmap, but we know 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:its first balance patch is on th💖e way presumably 🎐with buffs for the game's most underperforming guns and stratagems.
