Official or community servers? #What the difference is, and where the players are

Official servers are run by the game: it opens more as more people play, so they are nearly always close to full. Community servers are started by players and clans, with their own names, rules and Discord groups. Anyone can start one, so many sit empty while the popular ones fill up.

How official servers open #The game switches official servers on as players arrive, and off as they leave

The game switches on about one official server for every 91 to 101 players who arrive, switches them off again as players leave, and keeps them about 87% to 91% full, in every zone. It keeps up within the 5 minutes between two of our looks at the server list.

North America (Central), last 24 hours: the seats line stays just above the players line, because the game opens servers as players arrive and closes them as they leave. In 93 of 93 hours that players arrived over the last 7 days, the game had switched on more official servers by the next hour, about one for every 92 new players. As players leave it switches them off again, one for every 91. Its biggest hour in the last day: 33 servers switched on, from 19:00 Chicago time. (Hours when the game listed only 250 of its servers here are left out.)

We only see players once they are on a server, so players waiting for one can't be counted, and a server switched on and off between two looks isn't either. Zones where the game listed only 250 of its servers for much of the week are left out, since the players on the rest are an estimate there.

When to play #Average players at each hour of the day, last 30 days, in each region's own time

Restarts and map changes #For server owners: when community servers restart, what it costs them, and how long a match lasts

Most community servers restart once a day: about 1,826 restarts on a typical day, and 822 of 1,704 servers that restarted at least 4 times in the last 14 days did it at the same hour most days. 93% of restarts happen on an empty or nearly empty server, with fewer than 20 players on it.

When a busy server restarts matters. A server with 20 or more players on it, restarted in the afternoon, is back to 90% of them in about 25 minutes. Restarted at night, 229 of 273 still hadn't filled up 3 hours later. If yours is never empty, restart it in the afternoon, not at night.

Community matches last about 70 minutes (most between 30 and 114), from one map change to the next. Maps change most in the evening, because that is when servers have players to play them.

Questions about WARDOGS player numbers #

How many people play WARDOGS right now?

102,794 players are on WARDOGS servers right now (17:42 UTC). Today's peak so far (UTC) is 102,794. Players in the menus or the login queue are not on a server yet, so the game's own count on Steam is usually a little higher.

What time is WARDOGS busiest?

Every region is busiest between 21:00 and 22:00 local time, and quietest between 05:00 and 07:00. The busiest hour has 7 to 2932 times as many players as the quietest. Worldwide the most players are on when it is evening in Europe.

Which region has the most WARDOGS players?

Over the last 7 days: Europe 43%, North America 36%, Asia 13%, Oceania 4%, South America 4%, Africa 1%. Right now Europe has the most, 53,607 players.

Are community servers busier than official servers?

No: most players are on official servers, which the game opens and closes to match demand. About 1 in 5 players is on a community server. Community servers are either busy or empty: 303 of 1,404 have players right now, and 175 of those are nearly full.

Why does this count differ from Steam?

This page counts players on servers, from the game's own server list. Steam counts everyone with the game open, including people in the menus and the login queue. Is the game having problems? See the live server status.
