Payday 2 currently has 2x Payday 3's player count.

[pibble]

Obviously this should be a sign to the developers to remove online only, and rapidly fix all the bugs plaguing this game. Have never seen a launch worse than this.

I'm watching from the sideline, to see if they someday screw up or if they manage to turn things around. Either of those ways is entertaining

Steam charts don't include ps5, xbox and gamepass.

Payday 2 is also $10, frequently goes on sale, has more content, and a much larger amount of people that already own it. Your concerns are legitimate but comparing player numbers like that is silly.

gamepass

[Solejukowa 1.9 TDI]

game that on sale costs $1 and was available for free has more players on steam than game that costs $40? surprising

here we go again

Although wasnt there server maintenance the time you wrote this?

Did you ever consider there are probably quite a few people on Game Pass?

I've seen completely opposite situation just two days ago.

[naii.neocities.org]

literally who cares?

Wow. The 10 year old game that goes on sale for a dollar has more players at a random point in the day than a $40 fresh release. Who would have thought?

This thread gonna be full of massive butthurt and cope.

If you say gamepass, I object with Epic store. And if your argument is there are players hidden somewhere you can't quantify, MM can't find them either and at the same time they refuse to pay for the game, you already lost.


The numbers speak for themselves, 90% players leave the game after the first month and this game will have under 10k peak on steam. Realistically around 5k perhaps.

And no amount of trolling here will change it, in fact, the fanboyism here alienates those few people who honestly care about this game. Nothing constructive was ever told, always the massive cope and excuses how payday 2 that and this.

The fact one always has to default to Payday 2 proves the point it is a superior game.

I don't see people returning en masse to previous BFs, CoDs, Counter-Strikes etc.

actually this is a good question because it looks like the servers were never taken offline

[Alcohol Bear]

At this rate Payday 3 will probably become more like a niche..

you lost pretty much everyone when you tried to compare gamepass to epic store
