Civ 7 Concurrent Players Are Rising And Will Continue To Rise, Still They Might Not Pass Civ 6

[taomastercu]

People really need to wait till next Monday before making pronouncements about concurrent player numbers. The launch was split by Advanced Access and it is launching on several platforms at once. It is the middle of a weekday as well.

The first weekend period, Friday evening though Monday morning, is probably going to see a big spike in players.

Civ 6 released on a Friday and it spiked to 162,314. Currently we are at ~75,000 even though ~65,000 players already had a launch period almost a week ago.

Going off on a rant early and then seeing player counts spike would be pretty embarrassing, everyone take a breath.

The launch is likely to be much worse than 2K/Firaxis wanted so you can still be happy about that even if you wait till the weekend to make drama posts.

I predicted ~214,000 would be the highest concurrent player count, on the weekend, in another threads. I think that number would probably be a failure for Firaxis, especially if player count feel off really fast after that.

As I see they might fall little short, maybe at 95k.

Honestly I think gamers are getting tired of buying games that feel unpolished and being told bugs and fixes will come in future patches.
I think there are a lot of gamers who on a wait and see with this game. They are still happy to play Civ 5 or 6 until the fixes and bugs are worked out.

Yeah, many still say that Civ series was at its peak with Civ 5.

Nah, Civ 6 had a much better launch, less negative reviews and more people playing too

The only comparable launch to Civ 7 would be Beyond Earth

They won't accept the truth. You're wasting your time. Every bootlicker poster here has seen multiple posts, or even videos by people like Marbozir but they don't care. They repeat lies like a chant, like a mantra. "All Civs have bad launches" they say. There's even some deep fried memes about it they keep posting.

The peak is usually at 20 UTC, so i thik they will pass their peak

Dont think they will reach 100k, at least not today

I mean today was their only shot to hit 100k. It is all downhill from here.

To be fair there's definitely some level of audience split from launching on so many platforms but they should still be well above 100k on Steam even with the advanced access split.

Yeah, there is no way 50% of PC civ players decided to play it on a console.

So, 84k from today will be the top player count, calling it now.

You can't "call it" after it's already peaked and began to fall. 😂

I'm calling it won't go any further up, like another day.

Definitely. Today was there best chance for big numbers. Until a major patch/DLC, at least.

Up until now, Beyond Earth was universally acknowledged as the worst game carrying the name of "Sid Meier's Civilization".

That has an all time peak player count of 86.892, and a review score of 59.53% from 22k reviews.
Civ 7 has now reached its likely peak of 84,558, and a review score of 51.74% from 24k reviews.

Congratulations to Beyond Earth for no longer objectively being the worst Civ game in history.

Yeah we can pretty conclusively write off Civ 7 now.

Goodbye friends, its been fun, but at this point criticizing Civ 7 is cruel.

"Stop, stop, he's already dead!"

Both Civilization games that tried to break the classic Civilization game flow ended up as the worst in the Series

Maybe there is a reason to it....
