Capcom Arcade Stadium has achieved remarkable popularity on Steam; In fact, things got to the point where he managed to get into games like CS: GO, Dota 2, PUBG, Apex Legends.
According to both SteamDB data and SteamCharts data, Capcom Arcade Stadium ranks just behind CS:GO and Dota 2 in rankings based on current player counts. The game has reached almost 500,000 simultaneous players during the day and appears to have around 420,000 players as of the moment I prepared the news.
With only 1943: The Battle of Midway in its free version, you might wonder what happened when the average number of players per day was in the range of 15 to 30 in the month it debuted. The answer to that is quite simple. Steam cards were added to the game, and immediately after that, the bots used to obtain the card attacked the game 🙂 Thus, statistics such as total playing time, number of active players, etc. showed that the game started to play at its peak.
Similar situations have been applied to different games before. Therefore, there is no organic increase; It’s all about the boats. Valve may also consider something in the coming period to prevent such statistical manipulations.
