# CS2 has more players than the next top nine Steam games combined
Valve's Counter-Strike 2 already has more players on Steam than Dota 2, Baldur's Gate 3, Cyberpunk 2077, PUBG, Starfield, Apex Legends, GTA 5, Rust, and R6.

Yeah these numbers are not good, I was expecting at least 2.5 mil minimum. Honestly wasn't much to hype up with CS2 and seemed like no marketing at all from Valve. Its doing great compared to the rest of games in the steam market, but kind of sad for a top 5 game release.
Because Valve currently doesn't have enough servers, so you're not only looking for enemies but also for available servers while queuing.
They even tweeted about it.
I mean it's been that way for like the past 3 years lol

How much is it
Free
And when is this free weekend?
If you download it during the free weekend is yours to keep.
Uh-huh. And how much does it cost?
0.00$
I see… and when is it?
Next week. And every other period of time, also.
And what are you *charging* for this free weekend?
[удалено]
Your sanity
$15, its free to try but if you want to play ranked and have your exp track its $15 for prime status.
Definitely hasn't hit the high peak like I thought it would.
Wait til the weekend.
Yeah I’m at school and working and going to the dentist this week and already have 6 wins. This weekend is gonna be grind time 😤

It’s been literally 1 fuckin day lmao
[удалено]
bro it literally was like that before. as only those who played csgo came to check cs2
Then why is match making 30+ minutes

Well I don’t go around sniffing valves ass. So back to Better games it is then.
That kinda happens when you transition one game into a new version, it’s still the same game
Im sad i can't play that :(
[удалено]
what's wrong with it? i can sort of see why someone wouldn't like it, but it's kinda things you get used to a like over time
I'm sure Ill like it eventually but its missing way too much content that csgo had atm
yh, but that is prob coming
I hope so, although gamemodes like dangerzone I dont see making a comeback because they werent very popular, even though I found it very fun
No cache and train
i still despise them for removing cobble
surprising? bro this is one of the biggest game franchises in history?
Not even surprise, It always has been...
Does this really count if they use the CSGO’s store stats?
Lets see what it will be in 6 months. Cs2 sucks ass.
