Complete disaster?

If this trend continues it wouldn’t be shocking if we had close to 0 active players very soon.

  • Last 30 days minus 50% active player base.
  • Last 60 days minus 90% active player base.

If this isn’t the evidence companies need to actually release finished products and end capital greed then I do not know what is.

Utterly embarrassing and unacceptable. All the data is here if you’d like a laugh - Warhammer 40,000: Darktide - Steam Charts

It’s the same info.

Steamcharts has more of a “live” count, if you check yesterday stats it peaks at 12600 something.

Today we are at 10k something, but it’ll probably be a bit higher towards the evening/night.

Have not seen this site before, thanks!

Has more information in Steamdb, with Twitch and follower

Some amount of falloff is expected a month after launch, but yea, a lot of this is self inflicted because they launched without a meaningful progression system. The journey from 1-30 just takes you through some shallow talent trees and unlocks the weapons, and once you’re done you realize that not only do you have no clear path toward getting the items you want, the itemization system is also shallow at best and doesn’t allow really deep customization of your play style.

Ah yes, for twitch viewers that’s true.

Game’s dead on twitch anyway though.

Agreed.

Oh man, I don’t need the charts to notice the Twitch count. Darktide is in the suggested categories on my Twitch front page and it’s viewcount went from being in the the tens of thousands to now sometimes having less viewers than people painting Warhammer in the Warhammer category!

I believe the highest ever viewers for a channel playing Darktide on twitch was around 400.

It got some big peaks around release date, but it died almost instantly.

It went to almost 100k viewers on release date (I don’t know among how many channels though), but it went down to below 20k in a week and below 5k the next week.

Ah, I must have been late to the party! A party did not last long in my defence :sweat_smile:

43% on Steam. This will hurt future sales. Something needs to be done.

They will port their disaster to the Xbox series…

We know that Aqshy went to Sweden this week, so we might get some acceleration from FS

Aqshy has no power in the decisions. The problem is in the devs who are so full of their “vision”.
