Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney thinks the Tesla protests are being covertly funded by George Soros, Reid Hoffman, and Tesla competitors using shady proxy orgs they can't fathom that the backlash to this burning clownshow could be at all genuinebsky.app
As if I needed another reason to dislike Timmy.
Epic Games bought out another company called Loci:
Got money to buy AI shite but not enough to keep staff on payroll.
I know it's not an apples:apples comparison as the CS numbers are people who are in client and Fortnite are people who are actually on a game server, but Fortnite's numbers are extremely swingy. Also FN peaks around 2.5 million on weekends, but still.
A lot of CS's player numbers are likely bots farming the new cases, but still.
Also Roblox dwarfs both games and peaked at like 8 million CCU today and >13 million on weekends.
No but you see they're going to help with the Metaverse (that has less players than games like Schedule I).
The fact CSGO can get similar numbers to Fortnite despite CS being PC only and Fortnite being on almost everything is very impressive.
Tim Sweeney chimes in with another banger of a political analogy.
I was being a bit disingenuous as spring is usually Fortnite's low point for player numbers and it still does >2-2.5 million on the weekend. Also the CS numbers are inflated as there are a lot of bots farming cases, but Valve might be in the middle of a ban wave so numbers could drop a bit. I don't deny there's some degree of botting in CS, but I don't think it's as egregious as say Banana or Team Fortress 2.
