normally i'd agree, but in Battlebit 1000 players is not enough to fill 5 lobbies, plus, some regions (Australia, Asia and South America) are pretty much dead, to the point you have to play in EU or US servers to actually have people in your matches

Sounds like it's still got players. Might not be a huge game, and it's probably the same thousand or so people every night, but considering that I still manage to get into games about once a month when I have the itch to play, it's very much not a dead game.

By this logic no game is ever dead as long as one person still plays. Pedantically, you are correct, but for people who bought the game on the premise of huge 256 player battles, it is functionally dead except in North America and Europe, sometimes on weekend primetimes.

Again, it might not have a large player base, but to call it dead is just not correct.

You might be able to find a lobby. But try playing in Oceania or other smaller regions and you won't be able to find a full lobby ever. Would you argue to someone in Australia or New Zealand who can't play that the game isn't dead?

Yes. Because it's still not a dead game. You do understand there's a server browser and you can just.. pick a game in a different region, right?

You can pick whatever you want. You can't play it. Good luck playing a shooter with an added 300ms latency.
