I always knew Australia + New Zealand had a crazy huge/active NS1 scene. To think that our combined population is 26 million and we represent 9% of the total playerbase is staggering.

When you ordered the game you recieved 2 emails, one for the game and one for the black armor dlc (if you indeed ordered the early alpha special edition)
On a unrelated note, how can we tap into the huge asian market better?

Make a tentacle alien and give the marines giant breasts?
That or turn the game into starcraft or an MMO RPG.

That makes three (Belgians) then! And I know a few more, we are going to be at least SIX!
Nice to see these stats! More corporate stats, I think a lot of us who have been following since the the founding of the company are as interested in the company as they are in the game.
Looking forward to giving my free copy away, boost up the UK player base some more, hold off the Aussies ;).

And my son got my free copy but he's only 9 :p
Another close friend was jealous but I told him to go play some CS cuz he's a mine-placing retard and that's the only thing he does, you don't want that in your team :)
I was actually surprised to see Germany at 5th. Expecting them to be 2nd. Looking at server counts across games Germany has always seemed to have the most FPS (and strategy) gamers in Europe.
Not surprised of the Swedish per-capita position. Norwegian by the way.

My band toured all over Europe this year and on one of our only "off" days we stayed in Nürnberg. We stayed in the old town area. I miss the food there so much!!!
NZ - Uhm, when I tried to gift my free copy, the account it went to swalloed it ... gone forever ... or are we still playing silly buggers with Valve/Steam?
Edit: Oh, we just saw it will 'unlock' in ~9 days. My bad.
I would be interested in the absolute values ... Norway has 5 mil? NZ almost does too, so on a per capita basis, if NZ sold 50 copies and Norway 250, that would be why their bar is 5 times longer than NZ's.
I wonder if I take my clothes off and paint myself all Khaara only to run down the main street of each 'city' (read 'big town' lol) screaming buy NS2 I could win us a top spot in the relative-to-capita stats?
Maybe not happening if sales are in 1000's, I'm not *that* svelt.
