KK.

Well I'm gonna tell you right now, advanced system care, and driver booster 2, are doing you no favours my friend.

IF I were you, I would get rid of em.. just allow your system to take care of itself (Windows is surprisingly good at this)

They removed the DC bit. I assume the leaderboards were adjusted accordingly.

Oh, never run things like this.

At absolute best they are snake oil, and often can do quite significant harm.

Windows can take care of itself.

I get this info from AMD's gaming evolved (I don’t know how they get this info)

Today



Up from august 23 2015

[Mazzyplz]

the numbers are consistent. 116 thousand players is not too little. lets hope we double that with steam

Amd software probably sniffs out what people are playing/installed...

So that looks healthy given that amd has piss poor market share...

[Mechwarrior Buddah]

I cant wait till Steam cause they actually track stuff like this lol

[Madcap72]

I played Day one and my first few scores were pretty good, so I can tell you at least Thur at around 5, there were at least 114 other people including myself playing.

So far, with the way the servers allocate map drops, I haven't been able to max out 4 of them, so I'm sitting around 400 something.

Dont forget people that just cant play this weekend also.

[Detriitus]

The friday night crowd added another ~2500 additional players (see first post for the numbers).

Just keep in mind that's 13k players since the event started yesterday and not counting all the players that can have an even lower amtch score.

Of course, but to keep that lower match score you'd need to get a lower score and never play again for the event, so it works for a approximate count of active players during the event, no more no less.

You'll probably get a fairly accurate idea, but there will be a few others like me who skip this weekend because the event isn't at all tempting.

Aye, won't play much myself, but at least I'm accounted for.

Way higher than 13,000 in 24 hours? What sort of numbers were you expecting?

Take a look at Steam top 100 and most of those games only have a few thousand players on at peak time.

Thanks for the perspective. My expectation might have been naive regarding that 24 hour frame but I would still have thought the accumulative count over the weekend to be higher (we will see, though).

you can add +1 because I play batman and the talos principle this weekend. No interest in this event...

[Alex Morgaine]

with a match score 24, [color=#EEEEEE]16,298[/color]

[Detriitus]

As the new login numbers start to drop I think its save to say that we have reached the approximate total of this tourneys population! (See first post)

[Felbombling]

You are forgetting all the people who took one look at the event rules, said to themselves, "This is going to be a disaster trying to finish... I know something about math and probability." and then went and did something else this weekend. I would be among those individuals... active player base 24000 + 1.

[Detriitus]

And thats great - I just don't have numbers for you and all. There will be those who didn't play, those who couldn't play, those who hate every tourney and not just this one ... perfect. The more the better.
