    the small community that still plays

    70k+ people playing daily

    You and I have very different concepts of small.

      Surely that 70k would include the bots though? Like of it’s 69,500 bots and 500 people then it seems fair to call it a small community

        Na there is a lot of real players still playing.

        Aus for example community servers get full quick, there is a pro league going with multiple divisions, and then those who try brave casual servers as well.

        Aus alone would have over 500+ players regularly playing daily.

        How is Valve pumping up the concurrent player count not a bigger news story? That is like the metric for calculating popularity of a game and Valve is openly fudging the numbers without anyone caring. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
