Is this game really dead?I was excited to pick this as my first fightan but player count are so bad and all the other other alternative like sf6 and tekken looks boring
>>729589487>Is this game really dead?No, you'll probably find matches just fine. Especially since they're gonna have a second season of characters and some new mechanics early next year.
>>729589980S2 is in January I hope they don't waste more resources on celebrity shit
>>729589487It's got cross play so you're fine. Honestly it's about as samey and homogenized as sf6 so pick up either.
>>729589487>Is this game really dead?Is playing with nigs really a deal breaker for you?
>>729589487Steam alone peaks at 350 every day. Far from any metric of success but it's a fighting game, you only need to find one other player
>>729589487not dead but certainly has lower player numbers compared to other fgs. That said you should have no problem finding matches, specially since it has crossplay. Honestly it is a much better game compared to others, but their marketing team needs to get their head out of their ass
>>729592350>but their marketing team needs to get their head out of their assNo amount of marketing can change the fact that the game is just inaccessible to the people who play SF and Tekken. By its very nature COTW is niche.
Yeah I can still find people online on PS5
>>729595294>the game is just inaccessible to the people who play SF and Tekkencan you elaborate on this statement? I'm curious as to why you think that
>>729596848It has a vastly higher skill ceiling; it's basically an "experts-only" game against Street Fighter's "all ages" approach. The people who play Street Fighter and modern Tekken simply don't have the skill and brain capacity to deal with COTW.
>>729589980New mechanics?
>>729595294>street shitter babies cant play real fighting gamesunbelievable
>>729589487Man I know it sounds like a "no Baiken no Buyken" shit but I'm really waiting for a cool character to come out like Blue Mary (expected in the next season). At the same time I also understand that this is the best time to get into CotW because of how cheap it is right now. Maybe I should play Mai or Gato instead... Damn.
