This genre of game will never compare to Valorant or CSGO. Those games have numbers that are astronomical in comparison to these games lmao. Even COD only has 80k on Steam. That's nothing. This type of FPS game (Very arcady/casual) isn't that popular in comparison to BR or tactical 5v5. So it'll never have Valorant numbers or even remotely close. It'll never be a massive esport, and I can bet my left nut it'll be pulled within 1-2 years. It's a great game, but they'd have to pull ALL of COD's player base to even have a chance. CODs playerbase IS NOT even that high...So if they want a actual successful game they'd need to pull more players then that at bare minimum. And not just at launch, they need that many players 1-2 years AFTER LAUNCH. And even in terms of how they play, they aren't even remotely the same. Except that you have abilities. Other than that they don't really have ANY cross-over with each other. Very different games.

its nice to see new blood yes. but this new blood does not seem great enough to pull a large enough playerbase to keep the game running. maybe im wrong but hero shooters like this tend to become super unbalanced in the long run. just look at overwatch, they had to recreate the entire game because the devs literally could not make a balanced game anymore because they had to keep releasing heroes to keep the game fresh.

I've been playing FPS games for awhile and I did notice that the lack of any SBMM meant that most matches were often very one sided. If I went super sweaty and used the best character and loadout then I could very easily win pretty much every match. Many casual players just felt like bots to farm and the only opposition was the one or two good players randomly on the other team. Top players would end the game with 30+ kills while everyone else just got farmed like bots. I fear like many people who are used to SBMM are going to get farmed for 10 games in a row and stop playing.

@shadowtitan8545 Год назад

Yeah even as a viewer I just can't help but smile when watching this game it reminds me of what fun arcade shooters were and also reminds me how far we drifted away from what made the formula great. Looking forward for an actual fast paced fun shooter for once.

I love how every criticism of a SBMM also exists when you don’t have SBMM, it just switches who has to deal with the problem. I say stick the sweats with the sweats. People who suck wanna have fun in casual too, and that’s hard to do when when there’s two guys on the other team going 40-0 because there’s no reason whatsoever for you be matched against them other than the fact that they like dropping in to ruin your games.

@MisterK-YT Год назад

That makes sense to me. I don’t play any multiplayer shooters, but I always hear people complain about SBMM n I’m like “wouldn’t u WANT to be matched up against players of similar skill? And if not, is that just cuz ur really good n wanna feel cool by destroying noobs?” Cuz I’m out of this sphere, I’ve never known people’s reasons for hating on SBMM, just knew that they hate it.

@xIQ188x Год назад

@@MisterK-YT the ONLY people who complain are people who are really good and now have to play with people at their level instead of rolling most of their games. They don’t want “casual” games, they want to specifically be matched up with players more casual than them so they run up the board.

@martin866814 Год назад

@@xIQ188x This pretty much. These people are tools, and they wonder why this results in toxic communities and dying playerbases. Casuals aren't gonna stick around if they get destroyed 8 matches out of 10, whatever the gamemode. Destiny is especially known for this issue. PvP players there are some mad apes.

@Stevo0929 Год назад

I really think if they can hold off on anti consumer decisions for at least half a year, this game can be big and steal the audience from cod. Activision seems to be actively trying to make their game worse recently.

@majormom357 Год назад

They gotta hold off for the entire life cycle of the game.

@@majormom357 yeah but that literally will not happen. Half a year is prob still pushing it for these greedy rats.

@shauncore808 Год назад

True, but more than likely it'll be ruined by microtransactions on launch day, never recover, and die a premature death. Which is a shame cause it looks great and I'd be more than willing to pay full price for it as long as it doesn't have ANY microtransactions.

@RexTiredAF Год назад

I'm hyped for this. Wasn't at first, as you said, the initial branding was a slap in the face. But seeing these betas impresses me. It looks like a pvp shooter I can finally dig into, having not been able to stay in once since CoD Ghosts a decade ago.

@coolbrotherf127 Год назад

I really like this game. I was a big CoD fan for the games before CoD Ghost, and quickly stopped playing by the time BO3 was out. I've been playing various FPS games since then, but never had a good CoD replacement. This game does a great job at copying good ideas from other games, while innovating and introducing fresh gameplay in more subtle ways. The movement feels really fun and fluid and the abilities give the game some variety and possible skill gap that's more than just aim. I also really appreciate them not making this a battle royale, that's a really hard space to break into and succeed while objective based fast paced shooters don't really have any big competition right now beyond CoD and Overwatch 2. The game ran really well and I didn't have any noticeable bugs except a bit of weird netcode stuff for high ping players. Ubisoft devs know how to program a working sound engine *cough* Apex Legends *cough* and the visuals aren't completely cluttered with dust and UI. Definitely try the game if you like games like Overwatch, Apex, or CoD and want something fresh and well made.

@thomashewitt8104 Год назад

Honestly the game looks really fun, I just think it desperately needs a better name

@Mikemonster311 Год назад

Solid experience thus far. I agree that the Net code definitely needs work. I get shot around corners and feel like enemy in game models are slightly behind where they actually are in space. Leading to a lot of deaths around corners as my opponent sees me before they appear on my screen.

Im really hyped to play this on release, ready to go back to fast paced action, im glad kill streaks aren’t in it, defeats camping purpose and not having to be stopped in your tracks cause a damn chopper gunner or something is out , can always be in the fight, and also the sbmm not being in casual mode, as someone who mains pistols as a primary, it’ll be nice to not constantly be meta’d from everyone using assault rifles and sweating cause everyone assumes every match is a damn cdl tournament can actually go against regular people as well
