I don't know if it's the times I'm playing or the fact I go only for dedicated, but half the time even if it's a full server they all rage quit within 10 minutes. This leaves very little reason to play unless it's with the 3 people I know who own the game.

sadly it's quite dead. I'm sure if you ask on the forums that people log in at this and that time, you can get a big short game, but just checking if there's an active game won't work well :(

yeah well I wish Beatnik Games all the best with future projects but the player count is very sparse here, and there's nothing but deathmatch which gets tedious very fast. (and then you got the frequent CTD's and ingame bugs, at least I do).

This game is kickass, just needs another Steam sale to boost numbers a bit and get the momentum going.

I will check out the forum once in a while and see if it ever does, in which case I'll reinstall. I dont doubt the potential in this game but besides more players it also needs..something to promote the other gamemodes. More (low pinged) servers running them would be a good start perhaps..

I have seen like one person on the Gamearena (Australian) servers... so i've only ever gotten to play about 5 full games since the game came out. (no including with bots)
So where are all the aussies? the ones that dont leave after two seconds of someone else joining.

Yeah, it's kind of weird. I think it's a really good game, I'm surprised there aren't more people playing. I think it might be the learning curve. Once you understand the game, it's simple to play, but hard to master. But while you're learning it, it can be rather discouraging to get killed over and over without ever getting any points.

I agree, but I think that matchmaking might help also. Losing isn't as bad if you're learning with friends. It's just somewhat of a race to get in a feature like that before more people move onto other games. I've been recommending the game to people, but it's hard to recommend when I can only find games with ~4 people.

Yeah this game is so awesome... makes me sad and confused that there aren't a ton more people playing it.
