I dont see the appeal, after 5 hours im bored to death, what im missing?
The jeets astroturfing how great this is with daily threads.
>>726040308post your stash and i'll tell you
>>726040695What are you going to tell me
>>726040810what youre missing
>>726040308What other extraction looter shooters have you played, just for comparison?
>>726041475Tarkoov (didn't like).Does Warzone count? Also didn't like that.
>>726041602then this isn't your genre
>>726041475Op here, its my first
>>726040308Maybe the game doesn't appeal to you, ever thought of that?
>>726040308The appeal is being a dick. That is unironically the purpose of this genre.
>>726040308This >>726044503Mid asf game with the only payout is making redditors mad
>>726040308>bad gameplay>bad looting>boring pve>piss stain level design>third person and there's no fog of war mechanic to prevent shoulder cam abuse
>>726044810I will never pay even a cent for this game, but if a copy magically arrived into my hands for free, I would make my own squad of milsim tryhards with the sole objective of harassing and sniping faggot streamers into quitting or saying the forbidden word out loud
But what's the endgame?This isn't an MMO, it's not even like Destiny, there are no raids, no clan activities, no "missions", strikes or dungeons.It's just looting randomly generated crap on the same maps over and over? I don't get i.
>>726045065>fog of war mechanicwhat the fuck are you talking about? this is a shooter not hearts of iron.
>>726046941Exactly what he said dumb fuck. It’s a mechanic in many 3rd person shooters, doesn’t render other players unless your character would be able to see them in fpp
>>726047308name 5
>all these salty fucks killed by freekiterslmao
It’s star wars movie-game tier gameplay. After the novelty wears off in a month it will die and never have any chance of revival. Every aspect of the game is too shallow to have longevity for anyone but low iq console stoners sitting on their couch wowed by the pretty graphics.
>>726048247Tarkov flopped.
>>726040308You're not really missing anything. It's a pretty basic game, you go out as John Helldiver, loot 5 scraps of copper, 2 blue-tier hobnobs, a yellow tier gooblyshooter and 20 cotton cloth bolts then come back home. You may get shot at by other players. Making the fun is up to you, the player, if you feel constant anxiety it helps raise the mental 'stakes' at hand and make the gameplay more exciting by creating an atmosphere of tension. I personally don't find joy in playing these games after playing so many of them, I ended up practically nodding off the handful of times I had tried to play so I ended up getting a refund for my purchase even though I was a couple of hours and change over (bless Steam customer support.)To be fair I'm not really a big fan of 'friendslop' games that require a party of others to create the fun. There's not really a narrative to keep things interesting or any meaningful missions. I do applaud them for making their game so accommodating to solo players though, most other extraction shooters I have played like Hunt/GoT/Marauders are pretty hostile to solo and will have you get wafflestomped by premade trios. It being on UE5 also helps it look nice, if not a little generic.
>>726048574Tarkov has been able to have on and off success for nearly 10 years because there is depth that gets people to return every now and then when there’s a fresh wipe. Just like poe vs Diablo, poe2 can be shit but still have enough to get people to return later while the other looks like a success at launch but will never have a chance of sustaining any of it because it’s too shallow. Games made for brain dead retards sell well and then die forever.
>>726048247 LLoL L
>>726040308This game is retard filter because it doesn't actually spoon feed the FUN. Having fun is entirely depends on your own creativity and approach to game environment and mechanics.
>>726048247Lmao even
>>726048574tarkov somehow sucks even more than arc raiders despite being in development for way longer. there are no good first person extraction shooters. play quasimorph or duckov until someone actually makes something good. dark and darker got close but fumbled.
>>726040308I still like Hunt Showdown in spite of the retarded collabs. The core of the game is still good.
>>726049646I don’t like Tarkov, I’ve never even played it. Fanboys are so fucking brain dead it’s insane. Just like d4 release lmao
>>726049646Add in the Duckov numbers.
>>726049474PoE2(2024) is at 17.3K peak in the last 24 hours, Diablo 3(2012)'s estimated count between 3 separate sources for the past month-week is 35K.Neither # accounts for console players.
>>726049474lmao
>>726049487>>726049646>>726050187any numbers from the official launcher most people are still playing on?
>>726050121And which do you think is making more money in the next 5 years? You are proving my point, poe will have 200k+ again when a big patch and new season comes because it has the depth to get people to return every so often. You are so fucking retarded it’s insane lmao
>>726050275>ONE MILLION GORILLION CONCURRENT PLAYERS ON OUR LAUNCHER>NO YOU CANNOT LOOK AT THE NUMBERSOverwatch 2 has more players than Tarkov on steam and like Tarkov, 99% of the players are on blizzards own launcher. Tarkov flopped bro. Sorry.
>>726050348https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_PC_games probably D3 since it's still in the best-selling PC games of all time list for over a decade at this point and generating streaming revenue and had more than a million players return for the last season?
>>726050518*the last season which, for over a few years at this point, has been 100%-admitted-by-devs recycled content with not a single new weapon, NPC, trait, or otherwise added in that time
Nothing. It's just a generic corporate product retards are consooming only because it's new. Mixed with some normalfags addicted to tribalism who need to be on a "winning team", as seen ITT.
>>726050348>And which do you think is making more money in the next 5 years?Definitely Arc Raiders. You think more casual friendly games don't make money? You retard, Fortnite is the most successful game ever. CoD even on down years still sells like hotcakes. Embark is going to milk the shit out of cosmetics and continue supporting the hell out of this game for a decade at this point.
>>726049646Tarkovsissies... theyre laughing at us again...
>>726050518You’re retarded
>>726050763Pretty sad a retard proved you wrong then, lmao, but it must not be a new feeling for you I would imagine.
I hookshot onto the matriach and planted a deadline on it. Was pretty cool but not particularly effective. My squad got wiped by other players during though.
>>726050681>conversation about poe2 vs d4Retarded ESL. I’m aware arc raiders will make more than Tarkov you imbecile
>>726051025Well if YOU followed the original convo, he brought up poe and diablo because he was making that comparison to Tarkov(poe) and Arc Raiders(Diablo) and saying Tarkov will have more success.
>>726040308I think it's capitalist slop for zoomies but from what I understand, extraction shooters appeal to people who prefer single player games, but these have an air of "danger" to them and are attached to a live service so it makes their games feel more social somehow.It would actually be kind of neat if these games had RMAH like Diablo 3 did. I don't see the appeal of shooting NPCs, looting boxes, managing an inventory and then bringing the items back to a bigger inventory in a "not" single player game.
>>726040308Friends
>>726050820D3 won’t make more than poe2 in the next 5 years. You lost, retard.
>>726040308I don't care for extraction shooters but it mogged both BF6 and BO7 by itself so it gets a win in my book. Plus The Finals was awesome so I'm glad they're getting success here.
>>726040308unironically social skills
>>726040308this game fucking sucks without friends, since i have none I didn't even think about buying it
>>726051420SameAlso by watching streams, the time it takes for loot to appear when looting is pissing me offWhy does it take half an eternity for each item to appear. It should be like 0.2 secs each item, not 1+ sec each
>>726050763>>726050348>>726051182>83m NZD after rounding out 2023>that's 43,000,000 in real people moneyhttps://app.companiesoffice.govt.nz/companies/app/service/services/documents/BAE56442232531168F58EF3EC52C1B8Ahey retardkun bad news I don't think they're going to be catching up to 1,300,000,000 USD any time soon (that's 1.3 billion with a B, ESL friend)
>>726040550They can't run the game
How long until this descends into people playing the advertised loop of, shoot robots, loot and go home vs griefers camping the elevators?
