Report on Network Test Results for January 2023
We are pleased to announce the results of the January 2023 network test and the results of a questionnaire survey.
*The play data and survey data collected is a global total.
■ The number of players
*insert image here
We are very happy that so many of our pilots around the world have played the game.
We are very happy that so many of our pilots around the world have played the game. We expect that more people will play the game when it is finally released, and these numbers will encourage us to continue to improve our operations.
■GBO2 playing status of its consumer version
*insert image here
Roughly half of the respondents were new players who had never played the consumer version.
As for the results by country, many respondents in Japan had played the consumer version of GBO2 before, while many respondents in other countries were playing the game for the first time.
We are glad that the Steam version of the game has been a good opportunity for players to get to know "Mobile Suit Gundam Battle Operation 2".
■Kind of devices used to play
*insert image here
More than half (55.8%) played with a mouse and keyboard.
For those who have already played the consumer version, this seems to have been a new "Mobile Suit Gundam Battle Operation 2" experience.
Some of the pilots who responded "other" used foot pedals to control units, and we believe that the Steam version is unique in that it allows each pilot to play on the device that he or she is most comfortable using.
*Please note that control with foot pedals, etc. has not been officially confirmed.
Popular cost range and popular MS
*Insert images here
These are the top cost ranges and MS played during the network test period. The results show that many players played on the ground maps and with high-cost MS.
In the statistics for each unit, the usage rate of high-cost units was high, and the most popular was "ΖΖ Gundam". We believe that many people used the "ΖΖ Gundam" because it is the MS piloted by Judau Ashta, the main character of "Mobile Suit Gundam ΖΖ" and the Supply Drop probability was increased in the limited Supply Drop.
