Over four days, barely anyone logged in to play. When we say barely anyone too, it\u2019s no hyperbole\u2060\u2014at times, the Concord beta had as few as three to four hundred people online, with high watermarks coming closer to 2,000 concurrent gamers. According to SteamDB.info metrics, the five-vs-five hero shooter peaked at 1,117 players in its beta\u2019s closing 24 hours. This doesn\u2019t take the PlayStation 5 playerbase into account, of course, and developers Firewalk Studios did make sure both enjoyed a similar testing period. Sony doesn\u2019t share community counts for its console-released games though, and considering the hero shooter does have crossplay and many servers were already quite barren for PC and PlayStation players alike, things likely weren\u2019t much better there. It\u2019s a very, very worrying blow for the in-house PlayStation game\u2060\u2014the first since Killzone: Shadow Fall in 2013\u2060\u2014with many players already declaring it \u201cdead on arrival\u201d as early as day one of this weekend's testing run. Various barriers scared interested players away early, with some complaining about oversaturation in the hero shooter market alongside Overwatch 2, VALORANT, and fellow newcomer Marvel Rivals. Others thought it lacked any real originality and many were quickly annoyed by the $40 price tag. There were some who instantly loved it; they suggested they\u2019d still preorder a copy despite the abysmal beta numbers. The things that got the most praise from that slice of the fandom included gameplay speed and \u201ccool\u201d characters. Whether you\u2019re excited or want to give Concord another go when it launches, Firewalk\u2019s hero shooter will hit digital shelves on Aug. 23\u2060\u2014if it\u2019s not delayed.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/concords-first-open-beta-went-about-as-badly-as-it-really-could-have-done.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1293968"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2076"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1293968"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1293968\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1293975,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1293968\/revisions\/1293975"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1293972"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1293968"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1293968"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1293968"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1293968"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1293968"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1293968"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1293968"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
