Back to the topic.
Although we have(had?) a spike of online(as usual when something new coming up and on sale times), the recent Steam reviews are "mostly negative".
Considering the overall "mostly positive", and recent "mostly negative", people mostly dislike the changes, because it's the exact picture when some devs screw up their games with updates.
The mostly positive reviews were "purchased" by a player with in-game money.
Prior to that, the game had mixed reviews.
Newcomers don't review the game based on changes, they review it based on their current impression.

In a nutshell, it's not 2010 anymore, but with a few thousand players, many would be willing to overlook that.
If they drip feed these new bots over the next year and put in a good plan for the year after they might break a thousand again by Christmas 2017

is that before or after the first hunger games?

even if that happened I cant see this game having 1000 people by then
Well, there could be a movie first, then robots. A good movie will attract lots of ppl.
Movie? lol

Every patch brings back 50 - 100 people, they just don't stay. If they know something new is coming the following month and the stuff thats actually interesting is spaced out (instead of putting all the good new bots in the first couple of months) then some of those will stay as some new ones come back.
If it can gain a hundred people the first month and then fifty a month after that for the first six months you might end up with retaining 150 – 200 people. At that kind of population the fights and politics should bring in more veterans. What kills these veteran corps is the inability to keep recruiting to replace the burnt out people and if that steady stream of new folks keeps coming with the new bots I think we could be at 400 by the end of the year. The crucial part then will be what the devs do next year – new bots will still be needed but it can’t be the same kind of thing. Maybe one a quarter and a new weapon system? They were discussing the new randomized mods so perhaps.

Wishfull thinking, even at 500 players at a time caused lot of lag issues last time, and that was with sub and money was pouring in so...
Im guessing the game is back being run on the "Toaster" server again? 
Lags are independant on whatever, they are just exist.
So when the EP Booster will be "fixed" for all activities?
