Give me a break. You think that the highest levels of players should be reached the first week the game is out? People will be buying it for some time and the player levels will keep increasing. Plus you are assuming people will play it for 1 day and then quit. Many players will stay as new ones join, swelling the ranks for quite a while. I know several people who have been playing the same games online for years, like Aliens Versus Predator. Look at how many people are still playing older versions of Quake. Plus, I'd bet many/most people never hear of it until it hits the stores.
