Hydrate

Hydrate is busy for most of the day rather than one evening: it stays above its 52-player daily average for 11 straight hours, 05:00–16:00 UTC, averaging 87 across that stretch and peaking at 11:00 UTC with 126. Outside it the city empties: across 16:00–04:00 UTC it averages just 19 players, bottoming out at 22:00 UTC on 6, so an off-peak login means an all-but-empty server.

Its 1,000 slots are far more than it uses: when anyone is on it, it averages 53 players, and the busiest single moment of the week reached only 162 — 16% of capacity. Day to day it barely moves: across those 7 days its daily averages stay within 28% of each other, so this is a settled population rather than a spike.

That puts Hydrate ahead of 99% of the 42,399 FiveM servers ViceHub tracked consistently this week, ranked on peak concurrent players — and the 6th busiest of the 33 established Australia servers we track.

Under the hood Hydrate runs ESX with 433 resources loaded — a heavy build, using pma-voice for voice and ox_inventory for inventory.
