I voted 100k+ because there is so much faith in Ubi

Is it up yet?
Voted 5000 or less. It's Ubicrap, the game itself has pretty poor word of mouth, meh reviews and Disney has been working hard on killing interest in the Star Wars Ip.

Post election and the very obvious culture shift we’re seeing, these companies need to go back to the drawing board and start making games targeted to their actual audience

They shouldn't have done it in the first place. I genuinely can't think of a game, film or tv franchise in the last decade that is seen as better now, than before this switch of overly pandering to people who didn't care for it originally.

If someone could give me a list showing otherwise I'll happily read it.

I must say that measuring CCUs in Concords is an amazing approach and has a kind of understated elegance!

We should make it mandatory when discussing game launch success or failures.

Edit: Just think you could say that a game launched to an overwhelming success, exceeding the blinding luminescence of over 1,000 Concords! Now that’s instantly understandable visualization!

You all do realise the game has been out for months? Right? If anything, all this shows is that Steam’s pulling power is wildly overstated - looks like most people who wanted to play it didn’t wait for Steam…
Monster Hunter World, Rise, GTA V, and etc say hi.

Concord's failure cannot be quantified or comprehended by the human mind.

It's like comparing numbers to infinity.

Not sure how you even came up with that conclusion about steams pulling power using Outlaws as a barometer.

Looks like it peaked at 1645, probably get a little higher and cross the 2000 with tomorrow being a Saturday but that's still less than the average attendance at an Accrington Stanley match.

Looks like this game has tapped out unless the big Steam sale perks up sales.

Weekdays have a CCU of a low of 750 and a high of 1,750. It's only broke 2,000+ on the first weekend.

Meanwhile, Star Wars Outlaws was a hugely disappointing launch from a commercial point-of-view. A seemingly decent game, from one of Ubisoft's most acclaimed studios, based on a major IP and after a successful reveal at Summer Game Fest 2023… it felt like a bankable hit. Yet it missed spectacularly. Across Europe, the game was the 47th best-selling game of the year, and sold less than Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, which was released the year before.

The game had bottomed to 300 Steam users during off peak hours before the holidays. I think it hit 290-ish. But during the Xmas bump as people were at home and a price discount down to $50, the Steam CCU perked up past 2,000.

But now in the new year with things bac to normal, the daily gamers are almost back to pre-Xmas. Slightly higher but not much. It'll be back to 300-ish low in the next week. It already hit a low of 397 recently.
