I was gong to setup a Q4 server, but I found that most of the servers out there are empty. Same for UT. Is there anyone that isn't playing counter-shite these days?

CSports, which tracks individual players stats for a variety of games always displays how many people have played some game in some time period like, say, the past week. CS in always at the top by a large margin, followed by others. Q3 is always in or close to the top 10.

Q3 is always in or close to the top 10. http://www.csports.net/(uknotly3isrbw055uunsz1m0)/TopGames.aspx #11 at the moment.... which is pretty strong for a 6 year old game.

QII is number 22, after all these years. I wonder how accurate their stats are? UT2004 is dead. Very dead. Are there really that many people playing? I'd also like to see the ratio of players to servers, and empty servers to non-empy servers.

They may not poll every server in existence, but I think they get the vast majority of them.

And that's worldwide.
