You already know the agenda is out with some people when Palworld of all games is being brought up. That shit is barely even a game.

Peopel are going to look back at that game and laugh about how blatantly unoriginal and low effort it all was

I don't even understand how that shit got so popular.

There is no agenda. Palworld is simply used an example because they are small devs too who were able to scale with the demand. Nobody in here is praising Palworld as a game.

It's not hard to admit they botched the netcode. They are tip toeing around hoping the dust settles

Hmm this implies the game is actually bigger on PC since steam peaked at 330k?

Also, there are 320k people in game atm lol.

Not bigger on PC, seems like they are prioritizing it. Lots of people on console couldnt get in

Unfortunately we don’t have cross platform concurrent available outside of what devs have ever put out official statements for whenever they hit such a milestone.

This may actually be doing better on steam than PlayStation. It’s anecdotal sure but the way it peaks early mornings makes me think it’s popping off big in international territories where consoles aren’t as common as primary game platforms vs pc.

I was able to get in on PS5 with the Quick play Activity card trick. It's a joy to play today, no glitches at all.

I was finally able to unlock the Guard Dog and Autocannon stratagem

Both are amazing and super OP.

338k CCU already, higher than yesterday

PS - it just broke concurrent again. I thought yesterday would be 400k but today is the day.

600k + is possible.

Monster Hunter World is down

Funny image from @Angie LMAO



The next big one is Hitman 2 at 361k and GTA at 364k

I low key feel this is the case to continually boost the Steam peaks but I don't wanna become a crazy theorist.

Damn, the server situations is much worse than I imagined. I just can't get in at all.

In case there were any doubts, Arrowhead's CEO says Jimbo's server firefighters team is also supporting them:

we're officially past GTAV

It feels great to have a 1st party live service be #1 on PSN, this game just made history. I doubt Sony uses Azure servers for any other games though. Microsoft servers are trash, they should just be able to flip a switch to get higher capacity.

Scalability is the entire purpose of a service like Azure, MS never disappoints in being complete shit.

Palword -> AWS
Helldivers -> MS Azure

Now passed GTA V

Road to 400k ?
