FO76 , Just pointing out. Its not as popular as we would like it to be.

[saraba]

JUST ON STEAM. NOT OTHER platforms. JUST ON STEAM.
Player count for FO76.
8,181 playing 35 min ago
10,150 24-hour peak
32,858 all-time peak

I find this pathetic. JUST ON STEAM. only 8k players are playing 76. and people still pay for 1st Membership. At least those 8 thousand people keep the game running and does not care about the dictatorship & constant nerfs over the game.

Imagine how many players would play and have fun with this game if BGS would allow players to have CLIENT side Servers. Like ARK, Conan, Valheim, Mind Craft, 7 Days to die, ffs even in RUST you can host your OWN server.

Give the option to have Official & NON - Official Servers?
OPTION to play with REAL Item Mods on NON - OFFICIAL servers that players can HOST themselves.

WOW Maybe we would start seeing STEAM player stats go crazy.
76 could be one of the BEST top rated games on Steam.

Only if BGS would allow the players to have fun with the game..
To bad BGS has their head so far up their ass, they are so Atom Shop Hungry.

ROFL.. and here is Fallout 4 player stats.
14,824 playing 3 min ago
16,600 24-hour peak
471,955 all-time peak
Want to know why? BECAUSE WE HAVE FREEDOM TO PLAY THE WAY WE WANT TO.

Im just asking,,
WHY the ♥♥♥♥ cant we just have our OWN REAL Dedicated UN-OFFICIAL private servers for FO76?

Other games companies do it.. BGS can still sell Items in their Cash Cow Shop. .. Then just start selling the Score Board as DLC.

1. Turn the game into CO-OP. let the players have the option to own their own servers.
2 . OFFER OFFICIAL . KEEP the strict rules and dictatorship on those servers.
UN-Official Servers . Allow players to host and mod their own servers.
3. Offer Score board as DLC content.
4. Still offer Atom-Shop items.

TO bad we will never see this happen. I can't wait to see the player count in 6 months to a year from now. . Maybe when the player count reaches less than 1 thousand players..
BGS will pull their head out of their ass and smell the fresh air of player freedom.

No one likes to be oppressed, None of us like to have our Items be in constant state of Nerf. None of us loves the idea of paying for camp NTFs and then have restrictions on the things we pay for.

Think about it. really. Are you happy to pay all this money to be treated like this?
Im not.
I love the game. but I got sick of all of the restrictions.
I will be willing to support a game company that makes fun content & Lets me ENJOY the game the way I like to play.

The only way I see this game surviving in the long run is to finally just release Un-Official servers to the players.
Let us play on our OWN servers , Let us MOD our own servers.

WoW. BMan is playing it both ways. I always figured you were Bizarre for a reason. Thanks to people who are paying for somethings the others still get to play this game. Kinda sounds like all the online multiplayer games I've ever played.

[Fluffy Chops]

1. lol you find 8,000+ to be pathetic for a MP that is what like 5 year old. Wait till you see what a true dead/dying mp game looks like bellow around 600 players mark as you clearly haven't lived/play one in your time.


2. Not sure if you noticed peer to peer servers are a thing in the past now many games have the company set up their own servers or at least buy a provider to host aka that ♥♥♥♥ cost money and they rather gain money then lose it.

Still can't understand would you rather be making like £100 or £1,000 per week, thats what Bethesda is doing by skipping out on server cost making sure they profit from this game is high high baby and so even if the game was dying at least they still making some what big profit.


3. I think you have miss understood this community yes there might be few who clearly really enjoy the MP part and pairing up with others, but not sure if you noticed but lot more of the community / player base just wants to solo this game i hardly even see groups of friends in a pack coming out of the vault. Soooo yeah i bet Bethesda would see that as a such a waste of cash to do what i talked about above.


4. idk why people still support 7 days sure good game but its not something you can go "ah yes the dev working on this game are putting such care into this" they don't even know how they want the game to look like its had like 16 changers from ui to textures + its been years not to mention all updates have crawled to a near hault.

7 days is technically what the first dayz was, just a game that was hyped and supported but in the end will never be done and will never be out of beta. I know off topic in a way but for real 7 days isn't a great game to say this is how it should be done when their are just as lazy to well do things in their own game.

[Wack-A-Mole MLRS]

Lots of them games in my library now. checked for something to play off and on. Most on sale 2 year old games say the same thing in Disscussions-Dead, Dying, No more DLC, no support, dead servers. This is not bad for 59$ i paid almost 5 yrs ago.

I still use my tent, Atoms, and Scrap/Ammo boxes to their full capacity so it's not like I'm giving money for nothing.

I just like playing this game with other people. Some are my friends I've played with for years, others are players I've just met. I don't get that on a Private or Custom world.

Sad thing is.. StarField will be the SAME buggy piece of ♥♥♥♥ mess as 76 . lol Same 2 decade old engine that just cant keep up with Unity or Unreal.

At least we'll be able to mod Starfield though. Just finished a Hogwarts Legacy run and while fun for a single playthrough, without mods games just don't hold any interest for me.

Only reason I still play 76 is because I'm using it as a multiplayer game (which for me basically means just having other people around, not necessarily actually playing with them). And even then I only use the pubs when events are happening like Fasnacht and people are everywhere and easy to find.

If Bethesda tried to release a singleplayer game that couldn't be modded it would die within the week same as Hogwarts etc.

I'm expecting Starfield to be as moddable as Fallout 4/Skyrim.

, you know that you should write this to bethesda and not on steam community right? They dont look here at all.

ROFLMAO.. I did.. and they booted me from their discord .. hahahaha

wait.. you cant mod Hogwartz?

Not really, only textures and minor details. Adding in a few item entitlements at the very most. It's UE4 or UE5 engine so basically unmoddable.

No great gameplay changes.

you need to understand that steam user numbers are a big lie, its just steam selling products to people trying to get them to buy them with fake numbers, its called marketing.

nobody is playing fallout 4 literally the games 8 years old i don't care who you are, your not playing fallout in generally specially if your online , you are on fallout 76.

its sorta like do you really think 1 million people are playing CSGO? don't kid yourself CSGO is a garbage fest game full of hackers and skin scammers, only people playing CSGO are the Degenerate cheaters that invest Steam.

do yourself a favor , the next time you see a new game. example Hogwarts legacy, consider the marketing scam behind it. steam gets paid to advertise a game they advertise it by lying to users telling them this game has players, in the hope you get sucked into buying it as well.

I imagine that fallout 76 most likely doesnt even have the 10k real players steam says it does, steam forum for fallout 76 consists of about 100 people who all tell us how bad the game is but never play it.

[EJR]

8k players is actually really impressive for a live-service game in 2023, especially one that released almost five years ago (And had an awful launch, which I may add). If you want to talk about a "pathetic" game, then watch the video I am linking down below.

You compare 76's player's with 4's but let me ask you something. How many of the players on Fallout 4 are playing with and without mods? Fallout 76 has no mods and still maintains 8k players (On PC/Steam) and, again, that is still impressive for a live-service game in 2023. The people playing 4 are only able to do so because of mods but nothing else, if it had no mods then i guarantee that 4 would have even less players, or perhaps equal to 76 in the best-case scenario.

From what I read on your post, and everyone commenting, you are the only one who finds Fallout 76's numbers pathetic.

ARK has more players. ARK for ♥♥♥♥ sake.
Fallout 4 HAS MORE Players..
LOL if 8k players impresses you..
YOU GO YOU!! lol
and . BTW..
haha.. IM NOT the only one who thinks the numbers are pathetic.

GO look at Atomic Heart.
AND then in a few days after Sons of the Forest is released TOMORROW.
GO look at their numbers.. Bet you 10 to 1.. Even Sons Of The Forest will triple the head count.

I for one do not count as a number on the steam charts as i have my profile simi private aka they dont know if i am playing a game as i will only stand as being online, right now i am in fallout76 but you cant see that, it says that i am online thats it.

I know alot of people have the same privacy settings as i do, so steam charts will tell lower numbers than what is the truth really.

Umm... hate to tell you but I can mouse over your logo with a green border and it tells me you are "In-game Fallout 76". May want to check your settings.

And also that he has over 3,000 hours playing FO76 and over 1000 hours in counter strike.

I'd like to understand this poo-brained logic that states a game is bad because it has fewer players than other games. It must be sad that you can only enjoy things when a lot of other people enjoy it also.

Again, ask this. How many players of Fallout 4 play with and without mods? Same goes for Ark. Those two games, especially Fallout 4, only achieve those numbers because of mods. This is especially true for Fallout 4 and other SP Fallout games. I dare you to play 3/NV/4 without mods for at least 2-3 hours, you won't be spouting those numbers when you realize people are playing those games still because of mods and nothing more. Also BTW Atomic Heart just released, come back to me mentioning that game after 1-2 months.

Did you even watch the video? There are other live-service games that are actually dull and dying off, the fact that 76 is still going means it has a dedicated playerbase. Does it need to be big? No, just dedicated, and that is what keeps any game going.

But hey, complain that a game doesn't match your preferences and hate the people that play it.

haha.. IM NOT the only one who thinks the numbers are pathetic.

Okay cool, how many of those people have played the game? Haha, keep trying, kid.

Considering he is determining how a game is good by numbers, I'm willing to bet $50 that he thinks CoD is a good game because of how popular/well-known it is among the mainstream audience and casual gaming community.
