But wasn't the problem with the game the # of phases?
Phase 1 (1min) - Reinforce your base
Phase 2 (2mins) - Uncontested looting and mining (not allowed to cross map to see other team) - No randomness to locations
Phase 3 - Collect the shield breaker in the middle (control point/CTF) and take it to the enemy base to break their shield
OR, if time runs out whatever base is closer to the SB is broken. So you can move it 1mm toward their base and camp and wait instead of attack
Phase 4 - Siege segment. Now you cap the points in their base - except you plant bombs to deal damage to their base. The base has a HP bar and each bomb planted (at certain spots) does -HP to the base. But if you defend, it hurts their base? So you can actually win a round even if you lost the flag part

Restart with purple loot this time instead of blue loot

5v5 made me stay for a couple of more days but it still got boring quick. Fantasy game but the best weapons they could come up with are generic revolver, shotgun, assault rifle, sniper rifle and smg.

Phase 1 doesn't repeat, you could call it 0.
You can go directly into enemy territory to loot, you'd just rarely do it at the very start of the game.
If you park the flag, it deals zero damage to the base; and if you fail the raid on top of that your base takes damage.

Also, the open arena part is a bit more exciting in 5v5 but it's complete ass for raids. Just pure chaos.
They should've tried 4v4, you could even roam the map in pairs like that.

I'll genuinely play this game if they add a 12v12 or larger mode. I don't care about sweaty gay small scale shit. Other than that the game is genuinely not terrible, it's just that the modes and aesthetic are dogshit. The shooting feels okay, the movement is alright. It's like a mediocre version of destiny 1's crucible mode "skirmish" gameplay wise.

Untrue. Without the exposure it would have had a few hundred players.A literal concord 2.0. Unless this game was meant to be a testbed for ideas they want to implement into apex there's no world where this thing would have ever been successful.
>>
>>732176963

I actually agree with you and think the game awards had a positive impact on the player numbers even post crash
I do believe they expected this to be on the same tier as shadow dropping apex legends to 100k players though
>>
>>732176590
Highguard's barely holding together with 6 players per match and you're asking for 24? Bro the map sizes are like two city blocks and you're gonna have everyone spawn camping within 30 seconds. They'd need to rebuild the whole game around that. Just go back to Titanfall 2 if you're itching for scale, at least that had soul.

It's pretty obvious that they have a vision of the main game mode with the phases and they shoehorned solutions to get to that vision.
Too little resources? Make the map bigger, too comple? Make it 3v3, too slow because the map is stupidly big? Add mounts, and so on

It's getting worse every day, kek. The real test will be if it crosses the two week mark and also where it'll be playerbase wise. I don't see how you sustain a F2P game on a playerbase of 5,000 people, but we're not counting console players, so it might be more like 10,000-15,000. If they're getting 10,000-15,000 on average, then that'll probably be enough. Concord was so bad that less than 100 people were playing it.

It's because raids are absolute ass 5v5 already.
There's a reason for both modes to be evenly split. The people who liked the game at first still go for 3v3 instead, while those just trying it out use the other mode.

11,000 on Steam alone is already strong. When you include consoles, the real playerbase is probably double or even triple that. A lot of companies are working with way smaller player count and still manage to ship meaningful updates and expansions because what matters isn’t high player count, it’s how engaged those players are and how reliably the game converts that attention into revenue (or at least momentum). SMITE is a good example of why raw player count isn’t everything. Even when it’s showing around ~2,000 players, it still gets regular updates; and it hasn’t stopped even after 2 years.

Why bring in the art director?
Why that one specific guy, why the one that failed so badly that his game is now remembered as the biggest failure in video game history, not any grunt that was working on assets or someone that was working on the animations or even the UI, no, the art director, one of the most important roles for a modern video game, why would you bring in that guy

I refuse to believe that this is organic, there's NO WAY this is organic, there's some nepotism and money laundering going on

They seem to go with what the user data says. She's probably the highest pick for solo queue, since she only has one semi support skill in shifting walls but is otherwise a roaming/fighting character.

this is what i've been saying. People just need to play it for at least over 12 hours before making judgement
>>
>>732206310
There's no need for that. This game is to be enjoyed by people who like competitive shooters with a mix of both strategy and action.
It's not for everyone. Hell, it's a pretty small niche.
>>
>>732206310
The actual gameplay is really good I just wish it had more modes than the base capture. A straight PVP mode or something with invincible mounts would be really fun. It's definitely not a bad game though
>>
>>732198307
Name bigger flop then.
And dont say ET, Concord lost more than entire industry was worth back then.
>>
>>732168008
Are there actually cheaters in this game?
I've played some people who absolutely laser me, but the game doesn't give you visibility to K/D or kill cams, so it's hard to compare stats to see if something looks completely off post-game.

Saints Row(2022) killed a developer that had existed for over 30 years. Dunno if was a bad as Concord but it was definitely a huge flop
>>
>>732207829
controllers have auto-aim, it's too strong. should be reduced or removed entirely
that's really the main issue with this game apart from the UE5 slop optimization
>>
>>732167724
>This game is somehow worse than concord, because people played it and THEN called it dogshit.
it's not
the scope in which concord has failed is simply unprecedent
an entire ecosystem went under with it. animated shows, tie ins, merchandise, projected seasons, a fucking multiverse. everything dropped in 15 days
nothing in this industry has ever failed as hard. never
>>
>>732207829
They exist, but you can get lasered by good players too. Especially if more than one player is shooting at you. The time to kill is fairly low.
Like the other anon said, controllers have a very strong aim assist and there's almost no recoil. But that's not all, guns are hitscan and other than shotguns they have too high range before damage falls off. The sniper also has no fall-off physics, so where they aim is where the bullet hits no matter how far.

There absolutely are cheaters, though. But those will also shoot you through terrain, or hit 2 sniper headshots in quick succession.
>>
>Developers are actively listening to and implementing feedback
Uh yeah, I'm thinking... No Man's Sky 2?!
>>
>>732191878
That's not enough, and it doesn't account sunk costs and operational costs, let's say that in total they have a 30k players on average, with 10k on each major platform. This game probably cost 25 to 30 million dollars to make. They'd have to pray that each and every single player is a whale and purchases everything in the store to make that money back, but 10% or 20% of the player base is actually paying for shit so it's going to take them years to recoup the money.

And keep in mind server upkeep, employees and rental space is still sucking in money.

Apparently, Highguard originally had 8v8 battles, but the playtesters discovered that each match lasted over two hours, so it was cut down to 3v3.

That doesn't make any sense, how can battles last 2 hours when 3v3 and 5v5 battles can be over in 3 minutes. They probably planned for more players, but EU5 slop can't handle that much on-screen bullshit going on.

The big ass map kinda makes sense for 8v8, and I wouldn't be surprised if they did plan for the game to be bigger. I find odd that they could support 5v5 so quickly, almost as if the framework for more players was always there, they downscaled it because the game ran like shit.
>>
>>732209853
That's impossible. Even the longest dragged out match will last 35 minutes tops.
The flag will plant itself after like 4 minutes if no team makes it to the enemy base, and though it'll deal no damage to it, it's up to the raid if a generator blows up and it takes 35 damage or it doesn't and the raiding team takes 30.
>>
>>732210247
Or because it played like shit. Raids are ass 5v5.
If you want more players, then it'd have to be a different game mode.

Shroud said several times on stream that using a controller rather than keyboard and mouse, gave him an advantage.

>>732208256
I tried controller in firing range and found I aim long distance much better on regular mouse and keyboard.

Maybe it works a lot better in a real fight against moving targets? Not sure.

It's the same bias that allegedly the Game Awards guy had for the game.
It looks much better under the ideal conditions. The few people who were invited to play it got the same impression, because optimization aside it's pretty well made.

Why is the recoil so fucking strong on mouse in this game? No other game has your gun jumping around that much visually.
