Last night 1.1 million were online at 120am gmt.

Infinity slayer had 575,000 alone.

No way dude. Where did you get those numbers from? Because the max I have seen is almost 400k and I've been on in the majority of the peak time since it's release.

Addict.

Lol yes it is rather fun :P

I really can't stress how amazing I find this game to be.

 

Also I found out today that my KD spread is 2.4 which kind of surprised me but once they add the Snipers playlist and I start playing that it will drop like a rock lol.

Haha, just checked mine out a few minutes ago, currently at 3.04 after 3 games, (1 loss, 2 wins, lost the 1 game where I got put into a team mid-game), so not doing to bad so far, but not sure if I can keep it above 3 forever though.

Kinda dissapointed that Waypoint refuses to update my Campaign (Which I did offline), so Waypoint tells people I haven't played the SP, but my achievs disagree.

Too be honest, 1.1M concurrent users globally at peak times in it's first week wouldn't suprise me, I have literally not seen anyone else playing anything but Halo 4 on my friends list or my friends friends list, never seen such a thing before, not even with MW3.

Up for a few games tonight? Don't have a mic, but we can make do. ^^

I could see the 1.1M for all modes but not just the Wargames.

3.04 is indeed beast. I believe after my first 3 games I had a 1.3 or something like that (partly getting used to the game and mostly due to playing against a lot of the most hardcore Halo MP players in the game right after the midnight launch.

Unfortunately I can't cause I gotta do some homework and go to bed. I can definitely play tomorrow (in 12-20 hours) though.

Yeah all modes is what I meant, just War Games would mean that people outright quit their job and dedicated their life to Halo, possible, thought not likely. :P

Heh, fortunately I haven't really encountered any hardcore Halo MP players yet (Unfortunately, also not in Spartan Ops, I want to fecking complete the missions on Legendary but everyone is doing heroic :/)

I'll try to be on when you get online again, otherwise we'll nab a few next weekend.

Sounds good. I can also do some Spartan Ops with you too. I played 3 of the missions with 3 people on legendary and it was a cakewalk so I don't expect 2 people playing (provided we don't find any more people) will be too horribly difficult.

added up all the multiplayer numbers. 

Very easy. 

Went on yesterday. 

Top game mode Infinity Slayer ad 301,000

lowest was King Of the Hill on 8,000

about 545,000 if I remember rightly.

I almost always see 400,000 plus.

Same here, but the most I've ever come up with is slightly under 400k. The top mode has never had more than 132k people in it. And I've always been able to check it during the peak hours (when the US/Canada/Mexico are playing) During night (3ish AM US Central Time) it drops to less than 200k.



I've seen 170k in infinity slayer alone

Online says 350,000. However, that doesn't count Sp Ops and Campaign. I would say around 900k - 1.3 million.


Online multiplayer is what he is looking for. 

I'm betting OP wants to compare it to maybe Modern Warfare 3 or the upcoming Black Ops 2.

I can say that Modern Warfare 3 posted much higher numbers on launch week.(on PS3).Can't remember the exact number but it was definitely upwards of 600k. I would imagine it approach the million mark on 360.

Maybe the OP wanted  to compare Halo 4 numbers to Halo Reach.

It's hard to compare,Reach inculded campaign

Really? Well that would make a lot more sense considering everything. I always wondered why Halo: Reach had so many people on MP during it's first few weeks.

Does anyone know if Waypoint tracks all those numbers? Cause I haven't seen anything it yet.

Reach and Call of Duties include everything from Campaign to Co-op modes it just says how many milions are online or thousands... it includes every game mode, Halo 4 you only see in War Games wich by the way its already way over what Reach had in the launch days online!

Campaign is king at the beginning, hell even Gears of War 3 still has more people playing the Arcade campaign than online game modes, just go check it out.

Pretty sure that's not true. You see in Modern Warfare 3, Campaign, Spec Ops and Multiplayer are essentialy their own game. If you go to multiplayer it shows you how many people are in each playlist. So no, it doesn't include any from Spec Ops or Campaign.

The "Total Players Online" does though. For example as I'm writing this, there are 277,087 people in MW3 playlists, while there are 329,692 in total. 

on Xbox Live ?? i though there would be 500k

PS3. You know I play on PS3.



Was online for quite a while today, seemed to swing between 400K-500K for the MP modes, so will have been higher for the entire game.

So around 12 noon here. Admittedly I have not really checked the numbers around that time especially since I assumed peak time would be kids getting off of school. I'll try to check it tomorrow.

It was Saturday, so I'm assuming all American kids were off school. I doubt figures will be anywhere near that tomorrow

@Mill, hmm...I should've played some today.
