Another game proudly shoving our colors has been cancelled by the concordfags
>>738123762I never even heard of this game lol
ok but hows the ost
it's going to return to formthe form being dormant code
Oh no. Not slopgame #562784...If you don't want to watch your game die immediately how about you make a single player game?
>>738123874OH THE MISERY
>dude imagine if there was dragons
This is the game Zesty shilled kek
>>738123762So those were lbqarbaaarp++ flag colors then? I always suspected as much but the only one I knew is the rainbow one.
>>738123762>put Bazz clone in game>it dies instantly lol
somehow she always finds a wayshe's the hero shooter assassin we don't deserve, but need
>>738123987>>738124007you do game on her OS, right anon?
>>738123762Another 120 mil down the drain, but don't worry they'll pump trillions more into woke trash, and spend millions buying up IPs to make them lame, and gay.>>738123832It got more funding than Doom, Halo, Hotline Miami, God Fist, Deus Ex, System Shock, Arcanum, Age of Decadence, Fallout, System Shock 2, Fallout New Vegas, and Kenshi combined, then multiplied by 2. >>738123874Worse than Imagine Dragons music.
Never even heard of this game. Can someone give me the short version?
Stop killing games selfish little fucks.
>>738123762>Make dogshit garbage hero shooter that already has 100 different identical alternatives on the market>No one buys it>Why does this keep happening!
>OW and Marvel Rivals have hot women>succeeds>all other hero shooters don't have hot women>fails
>>738123762It's kinda funny to think that more people worked on this game for years than there are people willing to play it.In other words, not even the guys who made this shit want to play it.
>>738123762While I could not possibly care about YET ANOTHER Pixarslop Style diversity game even if I was paid substantial amounts of money, I have to imagine part of the reason these games keep dying a death is because the first anyone hears of them is the news of them dying a death. You have budget, market better.
>DUDE, what if we made a shooter and did nothing different from the rest?>BRILLIANT MAN, let's do it!
>>738124193Do you really think anyone played it?
This shooter isn't f2p
>>738123762I don't know why they keep following the same failure formula, it's like they do it on purpose.
>millionaire guy from millenial band "imagine dragons" decides he wants to larp as a gamedev now.>ropes his millionaire brother in it as well because >spend years making all kinds of woke virtue signal interviews about lbgtbaarp++, mudslimes and gay mens rights.>vanity studio in middle of Las Vegas of all places>have everyone (allegedly) work remote anyways>6 years of rent + dev costs + cocaine>game comes out>instantly labeled as a concord>melty time>start banning people at random>game diesYou are here now
>>738124193>map is divided into small squares>your team hides a flag on your half of the map>enemy team does the same on their half of the map>you can capture radar towers, to slowly reveal squares on the enemy side of the map, and find out if there is a flag there or not >you can ignore it completely and just look for the flag>when you find the flag you need run back to your base and keep it there for 5 minutes
>>738123762wait, we are going too fast! this was supposed to be Concord 6, not Concord 3
>>738124086>Worse than Imagine Dragons music.hard to imagine such a thing being possible
>>738123762I know nothing about this game, someone tell me if I guessed right. Left to right>Wacky girl mascot character, probably throws goo bombs or something>Sexy assassin backstab character, devs hoped she'd catch on with SFM porn animators>Big tank guy, Reinhardt clone>Cool gunslinger, McCree clone>Generic COD guy, Solder76 clone>Hanzo but girl>Dork that no one plays, probably a healer
>>738124412I mean they did insert that guys mag the wrong way around, that has to count for something, right?
>>738124482was for>>738124193
>>738123874radioactive
>>738124496Didn't they turn Fairgames into a battleroyale? Does it still count?
>>738123832I would legit not even know about concord, hytale and now this shit if /v/ didn't constantly screech about em
>>738124396Let's not be insincere here. This isn't a marketing failure. It's a product with no market. No one wants these games. If black disabled trannies with skin conditions were a viable market then Concord would be a chart topping game instead of a by word for these exact types of failures
I literally can not tell these games apart anymore. They all have the same artstyle and seem to have the same character archetypes.
>>738123762Oh look it’s Concorde 5 with its Baz. What the fuck?
>>738123762WELCOME TO THE NEW AGE, TO THE NEW AGEWELCOME TO THE NEW AGE, TO THE NEW AGEWOOAH OHH OH OHH, WOOAH OHHH OHHI'M, RADIOFLOPTIVERADIOFLOPTIVE
imagine making a concordlike so painfully derivative and boring nobody even cares enough to label it "concord 5" or whatevergrim
>>738123762looks literally the only character not plastered in tranny colors is this one (1) chick
the only thing i know about this game is a few smaller youtubers i watch (all under 100k subs) were getting paid to shill itfunny to know those guys probably made more money off of it than the devs will
>>738123954Bazz skin on Demoman when?
>>738123762NOTHING CAN STOP HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>738124482>>738124494I see, thanks for the abridged explanations.
>>738123987It's a Dr Slone clone and Dr Slones game was extremely popular
>>738123762Concordchads eatin better and better these days
>>738124007my nigga bazz will always return. I'm not worried
Fortnite ahh looking niggas, but they could easily have put better first impression forward by putting different characters front and center
Why did the lead singer of imagine dragons invest in a games studio? The music industry lucrative enough? Other investments not safer or easier to focus on? I doubt that making this game was some life long dream of his.
>>738125417Alleged by me, the whole thing was a ploy to get to live alone in a empty luxory studio (that was not used as studio since everyone other than him and his brother allegedly worked remote only) with his brother in Las Vegas and do all kinds of butt stuff without his wife finding out.
>>738124794He’s right to an extent. I’ve heard of this game exactly twice. The first was a month ago on /v/ because some anon made a thread calling it another conchord, and now in this thread proving him right. Then again highguard had the game awards shilling and that flopped so idk…
>>738123938How would you make money from a singleplayer tho?You can't harvest everyone's data if players can just play offline.
>>738124695kek
What exactly were they expecting?
So what’s next for online gaming? I don’t know about you guys but all the shit that is being played these days is getting stale.
>>738123762Honestly, this game didn't look as bad as the other Concordlikes. It genuinely tried to do something different and the characters aren't aggressively ugly.
>>738123762imagine profits
>>738126020The well is just too poisoned at this point, nobody will give them a try for fear it's just gonna die, which makes it die
>>738125950Hopefully return to 7th gen where you just make a singleplayer game and shit out painfully generic multiplayer mode made as cheaply as possible
you guys really ran the blast meme into the ground in record time
>>738126152and yet journos still say that exact thing. Makes it funnier
>>738125948All the gay mormon middle schoolers to play it.no. really.
>>738125870You can't harvest everyone's data if you have no players either.
>>738126020Having Bazz in your game is an automatic death markSomething about this character just screams bad omen
>>738123945>>738124891>only two imagine dragons postersdo zoomers not listen to classic rock anymore?
>>738126356At least you have a chance. With SP you are dead in water no matter what.
>>738126437I find it perfectly reasonable and obvious that imagine dragons fell out of fashion, but anything to be outraged about zoomers I guess
very subtle
>>738126437Imagine dragons is not classic rock lmao
>>738126504it's classic and it's rock, ergo it's classic rock
>>738123762>>738124007This design is 100% the work of some consulting firm, no way it shows up in 2 games like this.
>>738123762All these games look the same. Were they made in the same factory?
>>738126529So what, Rolling Stones/Beatles suck. Imagine Dragons are worset. nearly 50
>>738124496the CEU lore is really shaping up
Why does it keep happening
>>738124482Why does he have multiple interviews about Mormons?
>>738123762more like last fag lol
>>738123762wtf bwos it had loli baz how could chuds have done this
>>738123762Can somene remind me why people like imagine dragons?Their music is a poop
>>738123762So this is the actual Concord 3 not Marathon?
>>738127006)))Investors((((
>>738125014are we just calling any colors tranny colors now?
>>738124193>Never even heard of this game.Neither did anyone else. That's why it died.
>>738124695heh
>>738126437>ID>classic rock
BLASTHAVERS WILL NEVER LOSE. BELIEVE IN MARATHON.
>>738123762Why is everyone making the same fucking game???????????????
>>738127341industry plant. their music is basically the same as asking AI to make gay Arena Rock for normies
>>738124494>5 minuteswtf that is foreverhow is anyone meant to win any game like this
>>738123762>man who makes generic music funds a studio that makes generic games>it was so generic people didn't even noticelmao
>>738126056
>>738127752>formed 2008basically retro at this point
>>738126437Imagine dragon is pure diarrhea that was birthed when the pop music was at its worst, what did you expect.Do you see them as Pink Floyd or something?
>Sir, it would appear another multiplayer competitive game has flopped not even a month since release.>That it did Timmy. And what did we learn from this?>People are tired of being force fed multiplayer titles riddled with forced DEI?>Wrong fucko. Now go crunch the team, we're releasing Fairgames in 6 months.
>>738125828This was also in the Dorito awards
Why the fuck do they keep making these?And don't tell me about the "power law" which is just bullshit used to explain shitty investments away.
>>738127413Don't investors typically wish to profit off their investments?
>>738127910It's almost poetic when you think about it
>>738126437stomp clap hey fell out of fashionTo be honest, the only two times I remember ID being relevant in public conciousness and not just something that plays in the mall as background music was Warrios and Enemy, both League songs. Maybe instead of pulling quadrillion dollars into whatever OP is named they should've made a song for that shitty fighter Riot has and just rebranded as League of Legends music
>>738128229This is a drop in the bucket for them. All they need is one of them to become the new Fortnite and it'll make up for all the losses and then some
>>738123832>>738123762Those wimyn look good
>>738128229That's the old capitalism model.In the new Socialism model the only important metric is cultural influence trough saturation, money be damned.
>>738128229They do but you see, investors aren't particularly smart people. They just have a lot of money. When someone comes and promises them a game that will surpass all games and make gorrillions from the vast fanbase that can't wait to play their game, they instantly pony up the money.
>>738128272I only know them from the superbowl commercial for the Switch.
>>738128228This one was specifically made by a smaller team because the Imagine Dragon brothers wanted a capture the flag game, and no modern games have a good CTF mode.
>>738126020>doesn't look as badI see this every time a Concord-like flops. You can't just be mediocre. Why is anyone going to play your Fortnite looking slop and invest time into it? The gameplay is inferior, the premise is middling.Why even fucking bother?It's the core issue with live service. 120 million dollars squeezed into a mediocre game that you can only say "well it looked ok"
>>738124086>Game made by musical artist>Is shitThat alone probably killed the game. If the OST was a banger it would have gotten SOME attention All the heroes should have been based on a genre of music
>>738128229wishing and profiting are different thingsinvesting is a coinflip 99% of the timethe only difference between a ludomaniac cretin off tiktok who shortsells and "investors" is the pool of starting funds they have
>>738126437>all these people not getting the jokeWAKING UPTO ASH AND DUST
>>738125014>skindentation>big booba>hair clippingOverall not too terrible.
>>738124494>make an entire game out of a simple game modeModern game devs are braindead
>>738128228They saw Overwatch doing Iron Man Numbers back in 2016 and spent 7~10 years making the hottest new release of 2017
>>738125682>it's so hot in Las Vegas the buildings are meltingwho knew?
>>738128365It's private company tho.
>>738123762why do people think they can create a new IP that competes with overwatch?marvel rivals is the only one to succeed, and it's because it was an existing IP and timed well on the market, and not afraid to goon.
>>738125417>The music industry not lucrative enough?Video Games have been the most successful and dominant medium for about a decade now if not longer. This isn't the first celeb that tried pivoting into being a video game studio CEO and it won't be the last.As for why, likely some combination of it being the biggest medium, playing games themselves and ego. You used to see this with movies too, but that's a dead medium now
>>738124201this one really wasn't us this timewe're still focused on Marathon's deterioration
These people could just make a GAME instead of live service slop, then it wouldn't have to flop in three weeks and "shut down", it could just exist and people could buy it if they want to or not. Do people not make GAMES anymore?
>>738123762I don't mind Bazz Jr, she's cute.Stll don't care enough to play this game though.
I feel like reality is collapsing in on itself.These shitty hero shooters are dying faster than they are even made at this point. I swear this one didn't even exist before this thread manifested it.
>>738125417The music industry is getting wrecked by AI. The average person can be fooled by AI music much easier than AI text and images. I predict that supermarkets will stop playing the same 15 songs they’ve had on rotation since 2005 and switch to royalty free AI music. And once supermarkets get away with it, everyone else will follow.
>>738126056Kek
Another chapter in the Concordian Saga.
he should stick to making his dogshit music for braindead NPCs
>>738129027I'm one of the very few people who knew about this game's existence prior to launch, since a gaming news youtuber I watch mentioned it a few months ago.My response to finding out about it then was roughly "Oh that's kinda neat", and promptly forgetting about it until now.
>>738123762>let's name our game so that people get autobanned if they misspell it
>>738129305What's neat about it? It looks like an AI generated parody.
>>738129338Mostly just the concept of being a CTF-focused game where you hide the flag yourself. It seems "kinda neat".
>>738126625Based
The heavy cosplaying as a lumbersexual and the random weenie with the falcon make this look fake. Mini Bazz doesn't help.
The bitch with the hood and the bitch with the bow literally look like different gens made from the same prompt.
>>738129405it's not a bad idea, but 20 years ago this would have just been one of several modes in a game. And you could play with botsNew games are fucken retarded
>>738128909Investors are too smart and experienced to bother with games when they can invest in LIVE SERVICES! Customers are retards that aren't worth listening to, customer opinions on fun is no better than maniacal babbling, customers need to be fleeced of every dime. Clearly, instead of jumping on new, promising genres before there's a trillion clones, the answer is to wait around 20 years for the genre to prove itself, and then make the trillion and oneth game which will be so good that all the other trillions will die. The investors did nothing wrong except picking the wrong live service to back, they'll win next time by making an open world survival crafting PvPvM, sometime around the year 2033.
>>738129676I'd be shocked if this wasn't a custom game mode already cooked up for TFC or something.
>>738123762I think one of the main problems is they made you drop 15 bones on this shit.... its 2026 i feel like if youre making a multiplayer only game in this day n age it HAS to be free. No one is gonna pay 15 bones to play something when literally everyone else in the multiplayer sphere is f2p barring maybe someshit like Arc raiders.
>>738129591Holy shit you're right, it looks like they swapped the ponytail for a hood + mask, did some recoloring, and called it a day
>>738129931$15 isn't even that much but if it's multiplayer only then the numerous F2P game closures means nobody is going to want to end up losing that money. If it had single player content then maybe
Bazz!
>>738128405>The gameplay is inferiorHow the fuck would people who've never played the game know that? I'm tired of this retarded reasoning.>the premise is middling.Tons of people love capture the flag match modes, and yet there hasn't been a game that made that the sole focus.Last Flag genuinely did innovate on capture the flag and tried to fix a few core issues.
>>738130389>Tons of people love capture the flag match modesClearly not or it wouldn't have flopped
>>738130389>Tons of people love capture the flag match modes, and yet there hasn't been a game that made that the sole focus.Remind me again, how many times has Tribes been revived for it to die?
>>738124007>>738126534both companies probably used the same AI for generating concept art for characters and ended with very similar characters
>>738126020It's yet another team-based shooter that has completely failed the readability test because the retards and army of indian 3D modelers designing these characters completely disregard TF2's philosophy. If you can't tell what a character does or is what about with just a quick glance, then it's not a very good character design.
>>738130621Sadly it's done by completely overpaid "experts". The kind of people who run around with No AI stickers.
>>738123762>another soulless fortnite pixar blizzshit cartoon slop shooter>dies immediatelywow, who would've guessed
>>738124201Your game killed itself just like you will by age 40Stop making slop
>>738130389>How the fuck would people who've never played the game know that? I'm tired of this retarded reasoning.>It looks like shit>It smells like shitBetter eat the shit, just to prove the chud wrong!Oh, wait. You didn't even try it.
>Last Flag>Blast HaveIt was right there bros...
>>738129331worked for black flag
>>738126152The phrase has been circulated amongst marketers for over a decade, long before Marathon even got announced. Pic related, from CoD WWII's sub. If you see somebody "having a blast" with an online game, that's a signal that it's not actually doing well and the poor marketers don't know how else to drum up social media buzz for it.
>>738124201"No."
>>738124201>I do nothing.>"Heeey, stop killing games!"
>>738128549I WIPE MY ASS AND I SLAP MY NUTS
>>738128549I quite like this meme
>>738123762where does all this shit come from? is it really all just trails of covid bubble?
>>738123762Oh look, another>looks the same as every other gamegame, with "that" style
>>738125081>saw datto shill concord>saw aztecross shill thisthose 2 alone probably made more from the sponsorships than the games ever did, not that they don't need it given the state of destiny 2
"...Who?" meme is very appropriate here.
>>738129775>Investorsit's private company tho.
>>738127146Ex-mormons are obsessed with mormonism for some reason.
>>738131338Investors who go "make us one of those 'heroic gun games' like TF2 and Overwatch. Saturated market? no no we can TOTALLY compete with those guys!" (they could not)
>>738127402Marathon's that slow burn, bespoke Concord experience we get to savor its death much longer
>>738128549It's perfect except for >*police siren*Radio stations aren't allowed to play siren sounds
>>738131946You think the company exists on hopes and dreams, bucko? The investors in this case would be some mumble pop "musician" and a bunch of random $100m-$1b investment companies that you can easily look up by googling. Virtually every private company is driven by investors, or will reach a brief period of independence from investors through sheer success followed by a public offering that puts it right back into the jaws of investor-based mediocrity, usually followed by an investor-based dictatorship/cannibalism ritual.
>>738132468Precisely. Private doesn't mean there aren't shareholders or contracts or loans.
>>738130621You're retarded and are just trying to get some easy "muh AI" ass pats. AI could generate you whatever type of character design you want.
>>738129931People wouldn't be playing that for free either.
>>738128549Nice*changes station to 102.3>static soundssadface.jpeg>>738132459Maybe in America they don't
I swear, if billionaire investors just made a thread on here about games they've had pitched to them then acted on the posts in that thread they'd have success after success.
>>738124007BAZ MY QUEEN
>>738131000different time, although i guess today the authorities would make an exception for "black fag".nice trips btw!
>>738132459interesting, 4chan keeps teaching me about things i never think about
>>738133842I work in games and had plenty of contact with investors on both sides. They're kind of morons. Most of the pitches are two minute snippets from a game and they never ask detailed questions. Even for games where they don't expect the next Fortnite!
>HIT THE CHARGE 'OCTOR
The game would have had a chance if it wasn't made for californian sensibilitiesThe artstyle is worse than ugly, it's forgettable
>>738123874Stomp clap hey
>>738134517>The artstyle is worse than ugly, it's forgettableIt's "corporate safe mass appeal" that ends up appealing to no one.
>all these terrible online multiplayer games>keep getting mogged by stuff that came out one or more decades agoLook, it's not hard. The core audience for these games is young men. If you don't appeal to young men, you won't have a thriving online multiplayer shooter / hero game whatever. It's extremely basic and simple to understand. If your characters aren't either cool or funny by the standards of young men, your game will die. There's literally no other metrics that matter than this. Your characters have to be appealing to young men or the game dies. Full stop.
>>738130621>trying to blame AI for thisYwnbaw
>>738134517>The game would have had a chanceNO
>>738134898But 50% of gamers are women!*(*Study included mobile games)
>>738135370Even if you admit that mobile games are, in fact, games, it totally ignores the fact that genres exist and have totally different demographics. Like, yeah, 50% of gamers are women. But "gamers" in general don't play competitive online shooters. Only young men do. Not even all young men, just a subset of them. These particular young men have very particular attitudes and tastes that, if you don't cater to them, they lose interest in your game or won't even give it a chance in the first place. You CANNOT make an online shooter without appealing to this demographic and expect it to succeed.
