I only joined post Open Beta release,I have been told there was a Player Counter back during closed Beta.

I was wondering why was it removed and is there anyway we can get it put back in the Game?

Active players? Somewhere between 10K to 20K, my best guess.

before they took out the thing that showed how many people were currently playing during closed beta, I remember seeing anything between 2000 to almost 5000 at any given time. I also remember reading somewhere or hearing someone say MWO had over 400k accounts, but that seems a bit high to me...

I believe it was said that over 100,000 players were playing MWO during the first weekend challenge. Someone can probably confirm or deny this.

Accounts means someone made an account, what matters is have they played that account in the last month.

around 2.5k that was the last number to be seen before the removal of the little window showing us the # of online player

but that online player so go figure

I also heard that the counter was broken anyway, which also lead to its removal (on top of the other reasons).


But what reason would we have to know how many people are playing? either you're going to play or not, would you not play if a certain amount of people were on or something?

The highest closed beta number of active online players at one time was about 3500. That was during the impromptu server stress test.

Bryan Ekman made a post about the first tournament which said over 100k people played in matches with tournament players.

So...at least that many in total.
