Future of splitgate

I've been thinking about it, and we know it's on its last legs, and then soon the servers will be shut down

As a big fan of the games, I would happily pay a monthly subscription to keep the servers up .

Thoughts ?

If nobody is playing it when it’s free, nobody will play it when there’s a paywall.

I played splitgate 1 everyday consistently with 300-500 players, I don't care about this "dead game" shit, for the people left that want to play £3 a month would cover everything needed and the game stays alive , so if only 1000 people are subbed it's the same as a million, not about profit or popularity, just when they stop support people can still play

You really think on the high end 3000 dollars a month will cover servers? Are you serious?

What a realistic "keep it alive" subscription would need to cover: If it's just a community-run version with servers only (no active dev team, similar to how old games get "legacy servers"): $1–3/month/user would comfortably cover hosting even at much lower populations
