Been a few weeks since I've done one of these.

Here's one to mark the Dota 2 beta hitting over 200,000 Concurrent Platers

 

[Mileena]

I imagine if Valve made CS F2P it would be above TF2 at all times. Make it happen Valve.

 

[Derrick01]

Still 5,000 people playing Absolution.

[Orayn]

Dota 2 is still on schedule to go open beta by the end of the year, right? I mean, the huge wave of invites recently has to be indicative of something...

Imagine if Valve added hats to CS. I'd finally have a reason to play it!

 

[Pooya]

that's pretty high for Empire Total War, I guess DMUC8 mod helped quite a bit.

 

[1-D_FTW]

You mean if they dropped hats I could sell on the marketplace.

 

[Yobalt]

It's also the best selling Total War game.

 

[Mileena]

They already ruined the game enough, why not?

I think it's now "scheduled" for early 2013? How many heroes are left?

 

[Xdrive05]

Hah! I'm in the 0.09%!

===

1680 x 945 0.09% 0.00%

 

[Holden]

I think it's now "scheduled" for early 2013? How many heroes are left?

15

 

[JCV]

I'm happy to see that CS:GO didn't drop after a month or so as some predicted it would.
It would be great if people were playing something else in Classic Competitive than Dust II all the time though.

 

[Kade]

I think it's now "scheduled" for early 2013? How many heroes are left?

15 more to go from DoTA.

 

[Zia]

15

Ugh. I recently removed my Windows partition, so it looks like I'll be able to play Dota 2 again sometime in mid-2013.

A test version in Mac Steam library a few weeks ago, did nothing tho.

 

[Shepard]

Dota never ceases to amaze me. Well deserved.

I know! Lately that's been happening, where a dummy ver will appear in my library the week of or before a Mac release, but no such luck.

 

[MurkyZebra2417]

Steam will just explode when DOTA2 releases. I am excpecting 700.000 concurrent users at least.

 

[Stahsky]

Valve is definitely ramping up for open beta. Tutorial files have been streaming in. They have quite a bit of cosmetics to grab in the store, and down to 15 heroes. Things are closing in!

 

[Gowans]

I think that's half the reason they are taking their time. LoL has millions and the infrastructure needs to be ready.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Fuck yeargh Dota2

 

[Holden]

china only takes 0.5% of players atm and i'm pretty sure china took a big portion of the 567K viewers at the international 2

 

[CountAntonius]

Dota 2 is a beast. Blew away concurent users for anything. TF2 going free to play was extremely successful and CS GO is slowly gaining traction. Well done Vale now give me a new DoD.

 

[HoosTrax]

People still play Skyrim? I mean it's a big game and all, but don't you run out of things to do after 1+ year?

Edit: OMG, my ISP keeps injecting popup messages into my HTML stream about their ISP e-mail being down...I don't care! Stop already!

 

[staticneuron]

I just started. Its fun so far.

Could be new people. I have a large backlog so I have yet to play some games that have already been released.

 

[Orayn]

They said quite a while back that the beta would go open before all the heroes were implemented.

The general populace of China won't be getting Dota 2 through Steam.

 

[DTKT]

CS:GO isn't gaining anything. It's holding at 20k players because it was 50% off during the autumn sale and during the Big Picture Mode week.

Not everyone buys games at release. I'd imagine a lot of people got Skyrim during the recent sales, it was a top seller.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Aren't they releasing DLC still?

 

[HoosTrax]

Btw, I'm pleased to see people playing the Humble THQ games in decent numbers -- hopefully that results in more pre-orders for Metro: Last Light and Company of Heroes 2.

Hmm, I suppose. Although it's still funny seeing it surpass more recently released single-player games.

 

[KKRT00]

I'm playing it again and have game since launch, its not really the same game with mods, especially ones like Requiem, ACE or SkyRe

 

[Anno]

1600 people are playing Farming Simulator 2013?

 

[Freeza Under The Shower]

interesting to see metro 2033 high in there.

people play free games? woooaaah

 

[Freakinchair]

1600 people are playing Farming Simulator 2013?

LOL

 

[dimb]

Wow. That is a lot of people playing Dota 2.

 

[Randdalf]

Somebody on my Steam friends list has played it a few times recently... twist is that he's a farmer in real life.

 

[la flama blanca]

Game of GAMES

 

[Makoto]

My estimation of CS:GO dropping to around 14k was wrong. I admit it.

CS:GO isn't gaining anything. It's holding at 20k players because it was 50% off during the autumn sale and during the Big Picture Mode week.

But you also have a point. I have to wonder how many times Valve has to put it on sale to keep it alive.

 

[Gowans]

From the Dota 2 thread it looks like they are only setup for 200,000 concurrent players.

What. The. Fuck.

 

[Gowans]

interesting to see metro 2033 high in there.

people play free games? woooaaah

Yup

[Berto]

Dat Football Manager 2013 AND 2012! Damn

 

[out0v0rder]

so sick and tired of counterstrike, people still playing dust 2 gungame after all these years.

Well leagues have picked it up and the pro community likes it better than source and knows there is no future in 1.6 competitively so I think it will at least pass up source eventually.

 

[snack]

Wow. That is a lot of people playing Dota 2.

It's the new crack.

 

[Biggzy]

Dat Football Manager 2013 AND 2012! Damn

The thing is like crack in the UK. I spent so many hours of my teenage life playing Championship and then Football manger it is not even funny.

 

[Artanisix]

Wow. That is a lot of people playing Dota 2.

And it's only going to get higher and higher and higher.

 

[Biggzy]

And it's only going to get higher and higher and higher.

Gabe Newell likes this.

 

[Makoto]

So I've noticed Garry's Mod has increased in numbers, peaking at over 19k today. Is it because of the sale or was there a huge update?
