Finally we have a glimpse of the player base size thanks to the new N7-HQ statistics. It says on my overview page, that my N7 rating is #6746 globally, and that is top 2%. From this it is easy to estimate, that the total playerbase in the statistics is ~50 x 6746 = 337000.

However, when I look at my challenge ranking it says #3490 and that it is top 9%. From this the calculation of total playerbase would give 38777. So how is that possible ?

Simple, the N7 leaderboard includes everybody who ever promoted from the release of the game, so there were roughly 1/3 of a million total users who player ME3 MP and promoted. On the other hand, the challenge leaderboard only counts those who played since the release of the DLC, so the current active playerbase is ~39K.

So roughly 11% of the total playerbase is still playing actively.

Thanks to CROAT_56 for pointing out that my stats only refer to PS3 and also for adding Xbox stats.
Thanks to Shia Luck for providing PC stats.

So all info combined:

Platform        all-players         active
PS3                  337K                  39K
Xbox               1086K                103K
PC                    386K                   62K
all                   1809K                 204K

So the total is still roughly 11% accross all platforms, but the values are higher.

so?

Sounds about right - that's not 11% of the community, it's not 11% of the people who would've contributed to Operation Goliath back in April. It's 11% of the people who've ever picked up the game ever, once, to have a look. Completely different beast.

The challenge statistics are a better measure of how many players, how many every day MP fans are sticking about. The two promote operations got about 75% retention after six months between them. Which is pretty decent.

40k is pretty decent for a game that's been out for a while.

I don't care if there are only 3 other people playing as long as I can find a match i'm happy. I remember when I searched for a match on crash commando and I was the only player in the world online, that was shortly after it was released free for members of playstation plus. Embarrassing.

[N7Kopper]

I can find a good amount of players on the game. That's good enough.

I would like to have a four-player match on Half-Minute Hero, but nobody (literally nobody) plays that little title anymore.

PC for comparison

N7=  11569  (top 3%)  ~  385 633
CP = 1235   (top 2%)  ~  61 750

...but I know someone who is buying the game today for the MP soooo 61 751 

Have fun

well i dont go on that much no more as they want me to stop camping and playing the game i want to play, and want me to grind lower levels or buy there packs....mwahaha

anyway doesnt seem alot of players to be fair and with Halo 4 and black-ops on the horizen it may go lower.

[Charlie2417]

Since you only need 4 ppl for a game the player base is a good size

so?

Is that why you ran so fast to be the 1st post? To add nothing?

@Topic.... 204k joining all plataforms is still a great number of players active considering the game has been launched 8 months ago.

So far the community hasn't shrunk enough that there's a problem finding players. I think there's enough stuff to keep it going for at least a few months.

[N7 Whiskey]

Now figure out what percentage of the active playerbase posts on this forum.

[King Ptolemy IV]

That is fairly good for a multiplayer that was supposed to last for a month.

[Janus382]

Nice job! I've been curious of the same thing but have been too lazy to rub brain cells together.

I wonder why PC has the highest retention rate. ~16% compared to ~10% of PS3/XBOX.  Mouse/keyboard preference?  No aim-assist?   

EDIT:  That said, across platforms, that seems like a significant amount of active players for a multiplayer mode of a game/series with primary emphasis on single-player.

[DextroDNA]

Well, I'm 52k on the Challenge Leaderboard, and I'm in the top 12%.

Just because my maths is bad... does this mean the PC playerbase is now tiny?

[-JP-]

Maybe it's just cold?

It's beat my expectations that is for sure.

[SOMETHING_FOR_NOTHING]

where are they getting the population count for the all platforms?

remember this is MP where talking about there is probably a hidden amount of players still playing SP

[Eriseley]

Of course the N7 Leaderboard stats would include anybody who fired up MP ever, so you're not getting just avid playerbase from that, and it would be rather inflated I think. Interesting numbers though. 30k is still good!

[kipac]

Are those playerbase including only US?

[DNC Protoman]

This happens naturally over the lifespan of any game. I don't find this strange really.
