pretty damn popular... i mean it can't hold a candle to the base of regular bf2 (regular bf2 has like over 1500 servers O.O) but it gets alot of play.... there's almost always atleast one server near full (oh 54 players plus) and plenty with 30+.. at peak time, there's alot more almost full ones tho... right now there's about 300 (including empty ones) servers dedicated to DCON...

the only bad time for it is in the mornings (like 6 am or so, but even then there's matches going on with atleast 30 players o.0) personally i like DCON better...
