Ackter Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Well, it doesn't actually tell you how many people play FM at all? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aim_Less Posted May 17, 2009 Author Share Posted May 17, 2009 personally never tough that these game had these many people playing it at the same time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLmichiej Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 personally never tough that these game had these many people playing it at the same time Lol, this prolly aint even half the real numbers... This is just Steam, not taking into account the non-Steam users and illegal copies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCIAG Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 what do you mean by oh wait? He was joking that his post was equally aimless, and in doing so poked fun at people that call threads "stupid" and flame their creators. Perhaps a bit subtle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aim_Less Posted May 17, 2009 Author Share Posted May 17, 2009 we cant count illegal copies :/ its impossible , non steam we can only estimate them based on steam users number :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLmichiej Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 we cant count illegal copies :/ its impossible , non steam we can only estimate them based on steam users number :/ You can't count non-Steam users at all either as you don't know how many copies have been sold... SI staff themselves can probably make a rough estimate, but still you don't know all details. I suppose there'll be at least 5 times as many players as you see on Steam there (mainly illegal copies though ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stantoner Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 im never gonna buy off steam, i like the manual too much, even tho i have played it for the last 10 years i still love reading bits of it when i buy the latest version Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pablo1986 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I'd imagine Sega have a rough idea! I can't believe how the popularity has exploded over the last few years - especially considering how naff CM4 was! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aim_Less Posted May 17, 2009 Author Share Posted May 17, 2009 Is that just in the UK or globally? globally from all steam users The grammar in the title is by far the best part of this thread. nice post count +1 just to complain about grammar Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryknow Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Sif people use steam to open the game, as soon as I found the way to open FM without steam, it was goodbye to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
baker.simon Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 This only shows the amount of people playing FM at one time, not the entire total of registered steam users! What about the people who may be at work/school/holiday and unable to play FM? These would need counting too! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mphillimore Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I think if you ask people - especially young men - if they have played football manager, then you will get a number which is at least 7 figures long - and Id wager a decent %age of those have tried FM09.
