Hello everyone,

Regarding the connection issues when trying to host co-op:
The number of players exceeded 700,000 concurrent players, and a problem occurred in the Epic Games backend.
We had an emergency meeting with the Epic Games team and had them add an update to the Epic…
As of the moment this tweet was made, they were at 554k CCU on Steam, so that'd be 146k CCU on Xbox/Windows Store but obviously this tweet wasn't made the exact moment they hit 700,000 as it first hit 700k then they had to go to Epic to fix the issue with the servers and then they made this tweet so the Xbox/Windows Store CCU could be even higher.
Anyway, it has crossed 600k on Steam's CCU, LOL.
