Assuming you are one of the many who crashes during gameplay..the crash reports tell you how many players at the time you crashed are online in the server.

Ive crashed loads during the afternoon and I see around 4000 players on the EU server. Thats at least some numbers for the people.

    Yes but it's not able to tell you everywhere as a whole. It probably is counting your "instance". How many people you could run around to and see personally without changing instances.

    It's a megaserver. We do not know if it is a cluster of 100 servers with 4000 people per server or 10 servers with 4000 people per server. Or 99 servers with 20000 people that have filled up and 1 server with 4000 people that is just getting ramped up with a population.

    Those numbers do not really tell us much. Too many unknowns.

    Im being realistic here ok, when i play the zones dont feel like 4000 are in that specific zone only..lol i wouldnt be suprised if it was the server overall.

    Instance, not zone. Zone would be chaotic. And by instance I don't mean some phased instance of a quest, I mean the instance of the server you are on. They probably have 100's or 1,000's of instances depending on their cap per instance.

    Dunno , 4k seem a very low number for everything , even if ESO have a major sub problem.

    Currently around 1.4k player online on steam , ofc that is just a fraction of the overall population ,but it is a number lols.

    I bet it's 4K for your alliance :). ESO EU PVE ~=12k players? plus around 2k players per PVP campaign so let's say 20k players max?

    Seems legit. Game doesn't feel like it has hundreds of thousands of players.

    ESO has around 800k subs, it's not disastrously low, so not to worry all :)

    Is that when crashing in Cyrodiil?

    Yes, saw that report myself, 800k is decent.
    the 4000 might be instance, it might also be players on the physical server in the rack who might run multiple instances, many quest instances have only one player.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    800k subs is an unfounded estimation.

    ZOS hasn't released numbers.

    I was in a PvE zone, think it was Glenumbra.

    Indeed, from an analytics company who refuses to name their sources .. so totally believable.
