Steam breaks concurrent users record yet again

Steam had a good weekend. The concurrent user record that was set only in January, which saw 8.4 million using the platform at the same time, has already been smashed. On Sunday afternoon, Steam peaked at a massive 9.06 million concurrent users.

The ten most popular games at the time is a list mostly filled with stalwarts like Dota 2 and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, but Colossal Order’s new city-builder, Cities: Skylines, also made it onto the list.

Here’s what most people have been playing:

Dota 2
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
Team Fortress 2
Civilization V
Payday 2
Cities: Skylines
Garry’s Mod
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Football Manager 2015
Arma 3

Hollywood_Undead PC still master race.
Two games I have on that list are CSGO and Arma 3.

I just recently bought DayZ Standalone. Great game. Other than the bugs.


I've been thinking about getting DayZ, but I've been hearing its still poorly optimized.

DLT Shame they can't increase the bandwidth on their servers so I can get more than 7Mb/s downloads.


That's limited by their speeds and yours. That can't control both.

Have you seen the average hours FM players spend on the game in comparison to other games? FM engulfs them.
