RO has gone from the #27 most played online game to #6 in the last week :eek: because of the KillingFloor mod/game.

left4dead - 746 servers, 121 players
cs:source - 1278 servers, 1562 players
killingfloor - 1923 servers, 2514 players

Hopfully this isn't just a rush of new players who recently purchased the game and will soon be bored of it. :cool:

Those stats fail so hard...sorry, but they do. :p

http://store.steampowered.com/stats/

These have the correct ones.

KF is in 9th place, I believe. RO is 18th. Not bad actually. We'll see once this month ends...you know, when the initial hype is gone. I'm sure RO gained a few players due to KF though, and KF obviously gained players due to RO. So they benefit each other. Good job, you're following Valves model of turning Mods into Retail, and making them support each other.

kf - 1878 servers, 3175 players

^ it's gone up about 600 players in the last hour. I thought gamespy updated every week ... how often are the ranks updated?

1,087 players is the peak for RO today .... on a Tuesday? at this stage in the game's life cycle that is hard to believe. I don't even see that many players on the weekends anymore


Well buddy, that's what Steam reports. It's never been that wrong for me, usually very accurate.

According to Steam, more people play RO than UT3(This is including Official numbers from UT3, usually 600-700 at peak, RO tops that, ahah). I find that hilarious on so many levels...I dunno, I just do.

I think stats for RO are not showing correctly. No way peak numbers are that high. Must be because of the broken server browser.

Also I like how on gamespy KF is a red orchestra mod :p

Hopefully then numbers will rise untill the end of the month and stay there. But I fear lots of people will get bored playing the same maps over and over again. There are difficulties and ranks but they're not for everyone.

Killing Floor is more popular than both CoD's? Wow. Now let's hope it stays that way. I think KF has a good chance of keep a high rank if it gets updated regularly.

And KF isnt available in the shops yet, according to the devs ro picked up alot of players with the retail release so if the same thing happened with KF well it defiantly bodes well for the long term health of the KF community:).

Keep in mind, this is only counting people who play it through Steam. Steam only games though, are accurate.
