Sogoesit posted a chart earlier that shows the underlying uptrend in tact.
Today shows a potential turn on my chart. So guess we are now seeing lows.

I agree nimbo. Just a quick look at the chart at the top of the page tells you the trend.

[endion] 05/7/2018 12:24

Fair points nimbo!

Nice to see all 3 of frontiers games make the 2018 bestsellers so far. With JWE looking good. JWE is platinum and PC and ED are Bronze.

Endion I am honestly not surprised now I've had a chance to reflect - its up a lot over the course of 24 months, needs time to consolidate and at the moment we don't know for certain what fdev's future plans are. Concrete future plans are needed for the market to get excited...after all revenue which isn't repeatable deserves a PE of 1 so we all need to see the plans.

I see this as a consolidation period and a very nice opportunity for new buyers as I still believe we'll see £25 + over the next 6-12 months.

I'm very suprised we are still lounging around the 1380s after two rns's announcing that frontier are ahead of market expectations. Maybe until they have announced hard, exact sales figures the market won't believe them.

Thank you endion

[endion] 05/7/2018 11:39

Sure. I do update the chart positions every few days and post them. But its a goood idea to post the links to the charts. I'll do that later today.

[shanklin] 05/7/2018 10:48

endion

If they are not there already, please would you add all these links to your website.

Thank you, Martin

Is the best place to track steam sales chart position. And steam spy the only option for some kind of indication on sales figures.
Obviously the ongoing steam summer sale had effectively pushed Jurassic world down the charts. But the sale ends today so it should be back into the to sellers soon.

Valve are planning on launching something that effectively replaces steam spy. So I'd expect that to provide accurate sales figures. But no timeline on when it'll be available.


Anyway the current revised broker targets remain conservative after the upgrade IMO. So I'm expecting further upgrades over the year and looking forward to the next franchise being announced

Also you can check out amazon and the online playstation and xbox stores.

Its in the right places in all the lists and has been for a while.

Also, the top sellers list on Steam can give a rough idea of how popular a game currently is (for PC only) - just like the other methods it is an impression rather than any hard numbers. We could see that there were probably a lot of pre-orders for JWE as it was on the front page of the Global top sellers for about a month before launch.

Steamspy gives you approximations based on an algorithm it uses, explained on the site. You have to become a backer to get the more accurate results. That is for pc only. For consoles there are no figures, only best seller charts.

[shanklin] 04/7/2018 18:41

What are the best links please for checking how sales are progressing?

[endion] 04/7/2018 15:24

Saw another slew of sells go through at the bid price today when it was stacked against the ask at 15.04. Seems like our end of day seller is still active.

Money on Star Trek

[hastings] 04/7/2018 15:03

Nimbo1 regarding the next franchise when I spoke with them in January they did say the next franchise will be a well known name that will strike a chord with people!They also added that not all future franchises will be in that mould.

[endion] 04/7/2018 14:13

I think maybe you mean it will tie in with the next game announcement.

Star Trek, Stargate, Star Wars, James Bond, Fast and Furious, Indianna Jones have all been put forward. Fantastic beats would tie in to their animal creation background and is a univeral IP, so its a strong contender.

Tying in with the James Bond theme, there is also Mission Impossible.

[mark4231] 04/7/2018 13:40

The next franchise isn't expected to be launched until next year.

[nimbo1] 04/7/2018 13:39

I think Panic investor's star trek bet is a good one, but that could be title 5 not 4.

There won't be another game release this year as far as we know - all the investor communication has always said 2019 for the next title.

Im not convinced the next title will necessarily be tied to a film - it could be a game remake like Elite Dangerous was.

[cfro] 04/7/2018 13:25

Anybody care to speculate on the next (fourth) franchise?

I'll have a very wild stab at guessing Fantastic Beasts (theres a pun in there somewhere!). Film due to be released in Nov as i understand so would fit in with next scheduled game release later this year.

[discodave4] 04/7/2018 13:13

endionThanks. Hopefully additional upgrades will be forthcoming, that said will be holding these for a good while.Good luckDD

[endion] 04/7/2018 10:25

Testing an embded.

Showing the difference between a charting of the days close compared to the days highs from the previous few days at the end of the chart. The bit before is a typical 3 wave retrace.

FDEV will have some happy employees. :-)
