>bangs the table WHO’S CONCORD 2, MOTHERFUCKER??!!!
A 90% drop in players less than 24h after hitting a 100k has NEVER been seen before. This game is somehow worse than concord, because people played it and THEN called it dogshit.
Thank you Dorito Pope for bringing this game to the gamer's attention.
>>732167641Yep kino is officially back
24v24 when?
>>732167641>6k and slowly going down
Now the hard part: cheaters.
>>732167908Someone should try making a new Planetside but good
Why you people care so much about dogshit games that are going to bomb or die anyways? Its a boring game and that's it, move on.
>>732167641>who's concord 2you arethis game sucks ass no matter how many players you toss into the grinder, it will always be shit
>>732167641These devs are retarded. They first said it was limited time only as if they were doing the players a favor by adding 5v5 to the game. Why the fuck can't you just host a server and pick how many players you want to play with? Why have a retarded cap at all?
>>732167641still highguard no sexy skins your game is doomed in this genre
im sure all those 5 (five) "people" who asked for this are happy
>>732168165cope u lost
>>732167641TERRIFIC NEWS! I bet me and the other 2k sisters playing this will have a blast with this! :D
>>732167641Marathon. You're Concord 3.
Performative outrage
>>732168185comp players are more valuable than casuals
>>732167908Lost tech, impossible for modern devs
>>732168185Haven't played the game, but from what others said: The maps are too big for just 3vs3 battles. It would make sense with more players, so I assume this is the reason why 5vs5 is permanent.
>>732168108This but unironically
so if it was so easy they could put it out after 4 days, why was it not there from the start?It really seems like they chose to kneecap themselves to make it look like they were listening.
>>732168332yes those protests are very performative, they should play videogames instead of seething out in the streets
>>732167641This game would be awesome....if was released 11 years ago. You'll never be better, no even in the same range of Overwatch or Marvel Rivals. The moment this people release a woke character, it'll be another nail in the coffin.
>>732167641This reads like they didn't playtest their shit at all.
>>732168601Are you Indian? Bizarre reply
>>732168643Geoff did and had a blast
>>732167641never played it, never will but looking at OPs pic, I wonder, do they only have the 3 models for mounts? Arent there like at least 6 or 8 playable characters? Shouldn´t at least every hero have a mount? Pathethic
>>732168643Why would they do that? That would have compromised their VISION

>>732167641how long until they break the Battle Royale emergency glass?
>>732168165investors are faggots so it's funny to laugh at their loss
>>732167641But wasn't the problem with the game the # of phases?Phase 1 (1min) - Reinforce your basePhase 2 (2mins) - Uncontested looting and mining (not allowed to cross map to see other team) - No randomness to locationsPhase 3 - Collect the shield breaker in the middle (control point/CTF) and take it to the enemy base to break their shieldOR, 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 attackPhase 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
>>732169153highly doubt it.absent from any xbox or ps rankings
>>732167641this game and everything around it reeks of desperation and it's very off-putting
>>732167641This is a very good chart, as long as your only reference for graphs is ubisoft stock prices.Two monumental successes, the wins keep coming.
>>732168165let people enjoy things
>>7321676415v5 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. There is a sword but you can't use it. Maps and hero skills are bland. There is no saving Highguard.
>>732167641>splitting the low playerbase permanently
>>732168362Especially when every modern dev seems to think that ASSFAGGOTS are the be all end all form of multiplayer game that they need to copy from.
>>732170294>People who made concord made thisIt's over
What was his name again?
>>732167641Uhh do you really wanna split your 4k playerbase like that...?
>>732171143John Highguard
>>732171143Brock Lee.
>>732171143That's Lightning McQueen
>>732169476Phase 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.
>>732172978Kek
>>732167641>launch game with only the most retarded mode imaginable>90% of the plays leave after 1 hour so they add a slightly less retarded mode>...and then make it limited for a weekend>a few people come back and then fuck off again immediately after it's over>FINE THEN GEEZ THAT MODE IS NO LONGER LIMITED >shills consider this an act of kindness>90% of the day 1 players are still gone btw
>>732171143Bangalore
I think the quick decision to keep 5v5 around for good reeks of desperation. I mean, good on them for listening, but the damage has been done and everyone's suspicions were more or less confirmed at the mediocrity of the game.
>>732168331Too bad the hype for Marathon is growing every day faggot, I hope it kills GPT Raiders
>HEY HEY WE LISTENED*peak player count keeps going down*>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>732174041For a bunch of 'renowned industry veteran' this shit is inexcusable...Perhaps the ex-Concord devs diluted the quality with their toxic-positivity carry overs
>>732171143Bazz
Who the fuck was playtesting this where they thought 3v3 with a huge map was a good idea? It's like the #1 complaint
WIldlight should thank the chuds to be honest if it weren't for them literally know one would give a shit about this game
>dev moves quickly responding to playerbase feedback in an effort to create a positive outcome>"reeks of desperation"There really is no pleasing some people.
>Welcome... to Highguard.
>>732167641TRANS*bangs the tableRIGHTS*ACK*
hell yeah it's GUARDIN' time!
>>7321744935v5 is also fake because you're still just resource collecting anyways (if you care about being useful later) and now the raid portion is a big clusterfuck. Truly killing their game faster.

>>732175243>Highguard Was Planned As A Shadow-Drop, But Geoff Keighley Had Another Idea>Studio cofounder and game director Dusty Welch said the plan was always for Highguard to be a "quiet shadow-drop.">That was the plan, at least until Keighley told Wildlight he loved the game and had an idea. He wanted to highlight the free-to-play shooter from an independent studio>"He came into the studio and played the game I think twice and he said, 'Guys, can I propose to you, I want to do something that's unique...I want to put it in this spot and kind of do something different and bring this to the world,'" Welch said. "And that wasn't our plan, but like, are we going to turn down the exposure...Who would turn that down?"Geoff literally fucked them
>>732175413based dorito pope killing slop
>>732175413>Geoff literally swindled them into paying for top spot at TGAs after Intergalactic The Space Heretic disappointed millions the previous year
its not even a good lolcow anymore, at least for me
>>732171143I honestly have no idea
>>732167641I'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. >>732167908Fucking this, it needs larger scale modes so bad.
>>732167908Battlefield is that way
>>732171143Is this aspirational for zoomers?
>>732175243Ego, he tried to trademark "Game awards" he probably think things are popular because his gameshow advertised them.>>732175413Untrue. 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>would have had a few hundred playersI actually agree with you and think the game awards had a positive impact on the player numbers even post crashI 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.
>>732167908What a stupid requestThing is people throw these ideas seriously
YEEEEESSSSS!!!!! I AM NOW DOWNLOADING THE HIGHGAARD 2 TO MY CUMPUTER SAAR!!!!!!! IVERY FREE TO PLAY SO I DOWNLOAD NOW SAAR VERY MUCH TO PLAY HIGHGAARD RIGHT NOW INSTALL?! DONE! NOW I PLAY THE 5V5 RAID MODE WITH MY FRIEND SAAR I WILL REDEEM IT

>>732171143JaunDice Guard
>>732174493It'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
can you make a private lobby in this game and set up your own teams?
>>732181629The "Kill your darlings" writing advice comes to mind hereWhere you need to be ready to abandon something you love because it's just not working
>>732181738If all these idiots did was make Apex: Siege they'd be swimming in cash. Maybe they had made such little progress in the years since starting that the private investor threatened to pull the plug if they couldn't turn a profit. The game is unfinished and lacking content
>here to stayYeah I guess when your playerbase is decimated in three days you have the server space to have almost the correct amount of players in each instance.
>>732167641>New game mode instead of replacing 3v3 with 5v5Queue were already a pain in the ass and now they'll be split between these 2 modes, are they actually legit retarded?
>>732174470Unironically if they put bazz in highguard limited time people would reinstall just for the meme.

Retard.
>>732183305>"We appreciate everyone hopping in over the weekend to give the mode a try. We saw a fairly even split between 3v3 and 5v5, which helped inform our decision."It's not like no one is playing 3v3 now, there's a lot of people that still prefer 3v3

>>732167908It still wouldn't fix the game.For some retarded reason the devs wanted people to play on huge as fuck empty map in the first half of the game and a small confined base in the 2nd half of the game.Would 24v24 work in the first half? Yeah. But it would be a clusterfuck of people in the 2nd half Does 5v5 work in the 2nd half of the game? Yeah. But you still have a huge, boring, empty map in the first half
>>732167641they rolled out everything that was planned for the next two years on month one because they know it's a sinking ship.

>>732190650>>732191285It's the worst
Daily reminder that 5v5 is great and Highguard is good and fun and you should play it
>>732191651yeah I'm gonna do the opposite of what you say, thank you very much
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.
So why did they need the mining minigame in a competitive shooter?
>>732191969the AI believed because Minecraft was one of the best selling games of all time, that any game that breaks the #1 spot has to have hitting rocks as an objective
>>732167724Brother, highguard is atrocious enough that you dont need to make schizo claims like it being a worse turnout than concord.
>>732167908Not enough players for that.
>>732187406Huh, what (You) mean?
>>732168643They claimed to have started with high player counts per match and had to pare it down to 3v3 because the matches took hours.
>>732172983>You can go directly into enemy territory to lootWasn't there a barrier preventing crossing into enemy territory until the shieldbreaker is prepped?
>>732168108That would require actual effort.
>>732191651I tried it today. It's definitely not the worst thing ever. Gun battles on horseback are kinda fun at least. I just don't think this game really has enough to keep it alive longer than a year or two though
>>732167806I made that edit so many years ago now, its weird seeing it still get posted.

>>732167908>24v24 when?We lost that technology, it's simply no longer achievable in terms of modern game engines
They're still on open beta, right?
why 5v5? make it 6v6 or 10v10, is it because some market research?
>>732197738most likely performance
>>732197738It'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.

>>732198081>thread still upshame
>>732167641>checks steam player countYou are.
>>73219931411,000 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.
>>732199982Well I sure hope they stick around long enough to return that investment for you big boy. Doesn’t seem likely!

The game is actually fun as fuck for meI actually want it to succeed just because i finally got a team game that isn't a stupid spawnfest
>>732204958>online game>steamosLulz.
>>732206039this is what i've been saying. People just need to play it for at least over 12 hours before making judgement
>>732206310There'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.
>>732206310The 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
>>732198307Name bigger flop then.And dont say ET, Concord lost more than entire industry was worth back then.
>>732168008Are 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.
>>732207221Saints 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
>>732207829controllers have auto-aim, it's too strong. should be reduced or removed entirelythat'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 notthe scope in which concord has failed is simply unprecedentan entire ecosystem went under with it. animated shows, tie ins, merchandise, projected seasons, a fucking multiverse. everything dropped in 15 daysnothing in this industry has ever failed as hard. never
>>732207829They 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 feedbackUh yeah, I'm thinking... No Man's Sky 2?!
>>732191878That'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.
>>732207862SR devs closing shop was fucking hilarious. They learned nothing from Forespoken.
>>732174493Apparently, Highguard originally had 8v8 battles, but the playtesters discovered that each match lasted over two hours, so it was cut down to 3v3.Source: random YouTube comment.
>>732168165Because leftists must be shamed anywhere they infest and their failures ridiculed so they never attempt their subversion again.
>>732171143John Highguard.
>>732167641Deadlock won
>>732209853That 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.
>>732209853That'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.
>>732210247Or because it played like shit. Raids are ass 5v5.If you want more players, then it'd have to be a different game mode.
>>732199982>11,000 on Steam aloneIt's currently sitting at under half of that and it's 24 hour peak is about 8.5 thousand.
>>732208810In what world did they think people would like those feminist looking design?
>>732211021The majority of competitive FPS gamers play on consoles and not PC
>>732211421there is nothing competitive about a controller lol
>>732211021It's Tuesday.Barring the likely high amount of players who went back to the game they were playing before, they should be playing in higher numbers over the weekend.
5v58 characters amazing
...yea they're fucking cooked
>>732167641I totally forgot this game exists. Thanks for the ad, anon.Now redpill me on the game.
>>732211575Shroud said several times on stream that using a controller rather than keyboard and mouse, gave him an advantage.
>>732208256I 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.
>>732211916who the fuck is shroud???
>>732167641>WHO’S CONCORD 2, MOTHERFUCKER??!!!Highguard is. 5v5 is still too few, and it doesn't change the fact that the gameplay loop is incredibly boring.
>>732212025Best counter-strike player in the world -- now streamer.
>>732167641>fairly even split right after it releasedpic
>>732212254>counter strike>controller>streamerI've read enough. you're clearly mentally impaired.
>>732212114Have you guys actually played the game or got your opinion from someone else?How the hell is 10 people contesting a base too few? Most of the rooms are pretty small.
>>732212315It'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.
>>732167641You aren't funny.
