The Day Before REVIEW (so far..) 

The fact that the devs came out and point blank said “please don’t call our game a scam” right before they released it into “early access” is all the proof you need that this game is in fact a scam.

"online chess has better servers then this" is crazy lmao

Who didn't expect this to happen? It was obvious from the beginning that this was fishy, and wouldn't be anything like the trailers at all.

Should have "cross" examined it first

There are people standing up to defend this game, saying "it's not that bad" and "they'll fix it with patches," all the usual crap.

I wish I could go back to the day before the idea for this game came into being

It's been entertaining seeing all the red flags this game was throwing up, and yet people are still doing their best surprised Pikachu face.

the fact that they deleted the trailers from long ago should already be enough for us to know about how bad this game is. I can smell the crowbcat video coming soon.

The writing wasn’t just on the walls for this one, it was a giant fucking neon sign colored red. I genuinely feel for all the people that ended up buying this because I guarantee that support for this game will die out in less than a year. The assholes that made this crap got what they wanted in the end: a shit ton of publicity and money. Money that will line their pockets now and publicity they can use to secure even more money in the future from an equally shitty product that they decide to later regurgitate.

bro they did not only get inspiration from other games, that city was a unreal asset that was free a few months back lmfao

Yoooooo i cant believe you added a clip of my town in the opening !!!! Wooooo ❤

Thank you for spending the money! Saved me

Theres been so many bad games this year that I think someone needs to rank all the worst games

You know, this Year was so abundant with games, im suprised we haven't had a Worst Game Of The Year Awards

Bro this on you man, this shit was outed as a fucking asset flip scam a long time ago

*The Day I Got Scammed*

It was beyond obvious that it was going to be shit. The good thing is that actual good devs see where the demand is now, so expect a version of what this game was supposed to be to come out in 2 years that actually may be good.

For a second I was like, The Division beta was like 8-9 years ago...

That ALARM going reeee reeeee reeeee made me turn off Doc’s stream. Tinnitus pain. Side note, a zombie game with no melee?????? Not thought out very well

Usually, I'll not swear, but this game necessitates it ....... *IT'S SHIITTEEE!!*

idk who didn't see this coming from that whole fiasco a few months back

This makes me sad cuz that initial gameplay trailer or whatever it was and the gameplay loop looked so good and fun. Hopefully someone takes this idea and actually makes a banger out of it

Pre alpha division has landed

This game was bound to be awful. I mean there was genuinely no way that this game was gonna be even decent after all of the bs surrounding the marketing. Hell if I gotta question if the game is even real, then there’s an issue.

Whatever happens with destiny, you should definitely transition to gaming news and reviews, watching you cover different games is incredibly valuable and entertaining.

I haven’t tried any extraction shooters on pc. But as far as consoles I believe Division Survival did this best! Involving other groups and hunters made the experience so great. I miss the old Division.

I saw this coming. I also knew that I would just sit and wait to see reviews. Money saved!!! Learn folks

I mean shit even TheRadBrad refunded it. If that isn’t the end all be all review idk what is.

great video production. this game is definitely a meme

Thank you for your sacrifice Cross. It will be interesting to see if larger/more competent company's take the idea of this game and make something good out of it.

Game made me think of Open World Social Extraction Shooter because of that camp thing. The idea of utilizing vehicles to extract items fro the game world sounds pretty cool. Pull up to an abandoned furniture store with the buds in a truck and loot the pieces to extract back to your bachelor pad. Maybe sell the coffee rabe to someone if you dine need it and buy an AK. Team up with randoms and squad up to get some jewelry from a bank vault infested with zombies. Bring them back to sell and buy the truck you needed for the furniture.

I am loving the non-destiny content just as much as your destiny stuff. 🎉

crazy how the division 1 is a better extraction shooter than the day before

There has to be legal action against this company. It’s becoming an alarming trend where companies just create hype, ship a game out that is not even close to being completed, and then spend 3 years fixing it

Everyone who seriously didn't see this scam a mile away are the ones who keep timeshares alive

Worst is a bit of a stretch but it is still a crime against gaming

Content creators will make more on The Day Before than Fntastic with all the refunds lol

Something similar to what this game was meant to be is Blight: Survival, It is not released yet but looks cool, hopefully it will not be the same as this game though when it comes out.

Damn, Axtecross is roasting this game too!

My interest in this game only existed when I assumed it was a Division clone. For all their faults, I love both Division games, and I was hoping there’d be some fresh eyes on the genre and some interesting new ideas. When they announced it’d be zombies again, my interest died completely, and I only paid attention because I was curious how this would end up going. Delay after delay basically confirmed that this wouldn’t be anything other than bad. Glad this shitshow is finally out for everyone else to see, just wish more people would have waited and watched videos of content creators who bought it first.

The thing I find funny is the first gameplay video's they posted looked so much better and had so many more features than the version they have released after switching to UE5 the game they have released is completely differently to what they showed..

The problem with their inspirations is the fact that outside of that, they haven't the slightest original thought whatsoever. And the only assets in the game that are good are the parts they just bought from a store. Anything they had to make themselves is shoddy at best.

You know this is a scam game that they put together to avoid a lawsuit

I had to take a double-take on the channel name. You sound so much like MxR 😂😂😂

Me over here "enjoying" rust 🤣

Love the variety and game reviews!

When the game was first announced, I thought that it could work as a solo/squad game with a story. Kinda like a new version of Dying Light meets Division. A little more grounded, but with the whole, here’s quests, here’s some exploration, hell, here’s some settlement building. The MMO part never clicked in my head. The extraction stuff didn’t click. Nothing they ever showed sounded like a game built for any of that or even PVP. Like they said stuff and to me, it didn’t look like what they were showing. When it came out that they were pimping an entirely different IP, I thought, ok, game probably was a tech demo for whatever BS they wanted to actually sell. This game has no value and I can’t imagine the servers will be up for very long. This game doesn’t do anything well. It’s sorta pretty, but it’s also store assets, they tend to be pretty. Even if the game played well, like operationally, why would I play this? Let’s say you can crank up the zombies, the server population isn’t all inside the safe house, they add vaulting and ladder climbing and blah blah blah. Why would I play this? This doesn’t look like it’s got a plan. The loop is uninteresting and the end goal isn’t there. Oh, I can buy a car? Great…why? Do you want to know what needs to get made? One of these games where you change the world around you. Yes, it will have an “end”, but you can move onto different cities and towns and locales to have new challenges thrown at you. Let’s use what is here as a start. Ok, go in, clean out an apartment building and store, put up some barriers, get solar panels, some batteries, clean out the apartments and make them livable. Build some gardens, figure out water solutions. Slowly expand outwards and retake things from zombies and assholes. I want to feel like I’m making a difference and that the world I’m in changes with it, becomes cleaner, nicer, organized.

Im more interested that I saw HADES II in that wishlist! Are they making a sequel game?!

I wouldn't make my worst enemy play this game.

literally never heard of this

The Division 1 Survival mode was way ahead of its time.

3:04 ive heard that before 🗿

Most wishlisted game and this shits how of a launch is the first I've personally heard of it. Sucks all these people got burned but I mean this feels unsurprising at all as an outsider looking in essentially

Love to see cross making vids on other stuff Still hoping for warframe

Could you imagine losing all of your vault 😂

Fntastic, the developer behind controversial Steam Early Access launch The Day Before, has shut down with immediate effect.

And nobody is surprised. When a game has to resort to stealing clips of other games and constantly covering up what it really is there’s no other way it could be

I’m glad that I’m not like none of the losers that when they see the first trailer, think this was actually going to be good. I didn’t even get hype once looking at the showcase. I’m glad that I wasn’t wrong

Studio closed, took the money, closed their site down, and was like "SO LONG SUCKERS!"

Am I the only one who heard him say abby's racks were one of the slightly redeeming features?😂

Yeah, this is gonna be a game that I wait a couple of years to get. I honestly don't even think that it'll be running by then though, knowing the developers track record.

Nobody will ever convince me that this entire game wasn't hastily thrown together as a panicked response to their fake non existent game trailer going hyper-ultra-mega-super duper viral. There's absolutely positively zero muthafkn chance that this game was being developed for years like Mytona and FNtastic claimed.

The fact they went on release day to their channel to delete old trailers has to be one of the BIGGEST red flags 🚩 I’ve ever seen

The amount of refunds is gonna bankrupt them. And in no way does this look like UE5.

It's not a game. It's just a massive collection of store bought assets. They tracked them down, and listed them on Reddit ! There are several hundred of them. Not just the buildings, the cars, the weapons, and the player avatars, but also all the clutter on the streets, the roads, the trees, the interiors, the inventory system, the survival mechanics, the weather, the skybox, the day/night cycle - literally EVERYTHING is a store bought pre-made, uncredited asset !!

So, what will happen afterwards? Will there be legal action against the makers of The Day Before? I did not know about this game until this news started popping up everywhere... but am interested in hearing of any post-company-closure events.

If you watch the trailer most of the things showcased in it doesn't actually exist in game.

Sounds like they need to roll it back and turn it into a Division 2 esc game

This developer ( if u can call it that) has never had a full game, a game that works 100%, and many many sketchy stuff so I don’t know why people got hyped for this company and “ It’s game”! A game that is a mixture/ convoy and paste of many other game. This is a Frankenstein!

This was such a shame. Because i thought this was gonna be a polished DayZ. If it was just DayZ fused with The Division this game would be amazing

I loved the flame games for this year... Gollum, Kong,...and now The Day Before. All the content from these games going up in flames...made this year truly a banger.

Fake ambient gun shot sounds in the background to sim a real open MMO is wild lmfao

Your honesty is much appreciated good sir. Keep it rollin'.

Hey mom can you get me the Division or Last of Us please? Mom: of course sweetie i already got you something super spesh for Christmas

the whole city is literally a $300 asset pack on the UE store. Game's been in development for 5 years btw. Also each server's capacity is 30 players. if they're sitting in the hub or in the housing system they're taking spots for players that could be in the city. Also there is nothing to do with the housing system you just buy useless furniture to decorate and that's it

I went over 3 hours and steam still allowed me the refund. Happy, because that playtime was in no way indicative of my actual experience lol. 2 hours of server hunting throughout the day, and an hour of actual gameplay lol. I can’t believe they got away with just purchasing a template city bundle from the epic store, with some underbaked gameplay mechanics crammed in with 2% effort. Sad I actually was excited for this and sad for the “volunteers” who helped to work on the game, what a waste of time - while those two weirdo’s horde all the millions they’ve just made.

The finals content please and please play with other streamers i want this game to gain so much popularity

I would personally like to thank these labrats for buying the game day one and let us know how the game actually is... Really useful info for us consumers as it would greatly influence our decision to get the game or not.

What about the sports car in that trailer? Is it there? 😂😂😂

The day before was better than the day after watching this game

Bro i think nobody said it yet but i'm gonna give the proper credits to the thumbnail because i laughed so hard at that without even seeing the video yet omg 😂

Man... Midfield, The Day Wasted.. TOP TIER BRO

You should review more games, cross.

Damn, what happened to Marathon?

Damn, I really wanted to play this. Maybe if it improves I will drop in. Thanks for saving me 40 bucks lol.

The things is it depends on future updates if this game will be sucessful or not

10:30 I hope some developers do exactly what they tried to do with this game but make it good and an actual banger.

Imagine the division (Ubisoft) makes a zombie DLC like red dead undead nightmare...Now that will be interesting

I might sound crazy but I'm 1000% they are trying to get people to play the game and between the server issues, slow gameplay and very slow tutorial force you to play the game for over 2 hrs. Voiding your ability to refund

I played the original (Krusty's Super Fun House) on the Super NES. I can guarantee you that this is not the worst game ever made. I'll admit that it is really bad but it is not the worst.

Annnddd the studio just shut down, lol

I was more than disappointed. I thought this game was gonna be cool since it's initial reveal trailer I thought wow that's cool, I saw the overwhelming negative. But do do me bought it anyway, and well. To say I couldn't even play the damn game. Not on low servers, not on medium, and the game gas lights you and says it's your internet connection. I have fibre keep in mind. I returned it and got my 40 back. I disappointed myself the most and not listening to the community. And im just glad I didn't go over the two hours.

The Day wasted is crazy😂😂

Surprised it was not given a game of the year at Game Awards .

I don't understand why this indie game gathered so much hype. It looked bad from the beginning, but somehow people got excited.

I knew that this game would be even after it released would be as bad as everyone before thought and at that price also, nope i stayed so far away from this game.

My question is can you drive the fancy yellow car they showed?

never heard of it

Steam is currently giving out refunds for this game even past the 2 hour window. Cross I would encourage you and anyone else to refund this game regardless of how many hours you've put in it. Don't give these devs money.. this is a straight up asset flip scam

I know MUD servers that have been around for 30+ years. That have more players logged on, that are stable, and have more monsters to fight. The best part is almost all of them are free to play.
