PUERTO RICO PAUL, VIRGIN ISLAND VINCE, LOUIS LAGGIN, when will ppl get that NOBODY has the same experience ESPECIALLY if you don't live close regionally on a game in terms of server locations and the ppl that CONNECT TO YOUR LOCAL SERVERS will vary, I live next to the ocean, so I play guys across the ocean who should have a server on their island or somewhere closer... sounds like the servers need to git gud
Lmao no hate on any regions I honestly am against the billion dollar companies acting like these populations don't matter to these corporations, if you do some research there's a ton of SUPER dedicated players from some of these places who deserve a better connection without having to move to Los Angeles or NYC or something... If anything the best online gaming connections seem to be for players in Dallas tx or in Chicago or somewhere closer to the middle of all the servers... You would think that it's bad but they are the furthest from the fringe type of players who have abnormal ping...XD having no sbmm or EOMM would give even European players better ping likely bc they won't play ppl off mainland
I live in PR and let me say, that the difference between when I lived in the states (several of them) vs the Caribbean is very noticeable. Its literally playing with a handicap. Ping is usually between 60-70 which isnt bad. But most states I kived in, ping was 32 at highest. Average was 12-20. That is a rather big difference when it comes to very frame specific games like shooters or certain fighting games.
All they had to do was make a CoD4 clone with the movement and graphics of xDefiant. People want a back to basics call of duty game without SBMM. It’s why those call of duty mods are so popular before they get shut down because people want the old school back. They could’ve capitalized on that easy.
Ain't that EXACTLY what they did? People wanted an old school shooter with simple movement, yet they whinned bhopping was broken so it got nerfed to the ground. People wanted a shooter with no sbmm but once they realised there trully is no sbmm in the game, they started complaining that the matchmaking sucks. People wanted maps designed in such way where camping isn't a viable option and lo and behold, that's exactly what they did. And now that the only way to win the game is by pushing, it's apparently too hard for them? What the hell do you people want? Do you want an arcade shooter or not?
Reason why COD is so addicting and players cant stop is because of kill streaks. It gives them a hit of dopamine wanting more. Xdefiant needs something like this not necessarily kill streaks but something similar to keep them on
XDefiant has ultimates, which give a similar feeling. Especially the Libertad ult which effectively makes you and your teammates immortal for some time. I'm having lots of fun with that in the Occupy mode.
I will continue to play this game. I haven’t had any issues with it. I love it. It’s extremely fun. I’m not going back to COD and skill based match making. It’s a great game and doesn’t deserve to die. #KeepPlayingXDefiant
I will too, I will just leave matches where there's multiple ppl with insane ping causing me to have input delay due to lag compensation...it feels like I am doing network troubleshooting more than playing the game when im playing vs pr paul and virgin island vince
If they just took a hard stance on the bunny hopping BS id still be playing it today. I do not feel like learning a new stick layout just to compete with the average sweat.
Ubisoft is to blame. Not the devs, not Mark, but the executives. When they saw how many players came to the game ALARM BELLS should've gone off. The decision to put more resources in was so painfully obvious, how much more proof did these clowns need? Free to play crowds aside, a good PR campaign and a shift to growing the development of the game would've done wonders. Letting it all fizzle out was a real BONEHEAD move. Sure they weren't going to retain the 10M players or whatever it was, but there is no reason why they couldn't have kept 15 to 22% of those players. Explain to the public that incremental changes would come abruptly, and deliver without fail. Negotiate better SLA's with your vendors, bring in more artists, make a store that isn't complete ASS, this downtrend was EASY to avoid and cushion. There are executives that should be relieved from duty, not actioning the initial play-base was a massive fail, and embarrassment! A damn clown show! They failed the investors, Mark and his devs, and the players.
Yeah they should have adjusted properly, the leadership (execs) should have pivoted and gave more support the moment they saw a decline after the huge boom... Instead, they started throwing metrics and stuff out that possibly hurt the game because it made the decline seem bigger (11 million unique players etc were stats that are like a double edged sword)
same, easily my BIGGEST problem, the netcode affects everything from hitreg, to dying around corners, to having no enemy footsteps at times...dropping without those fundamentals is like trying to go to the nba without being able to do a left hand layup
Skull and bones dropped in February and alrady has less than 2k players on steam For honor gets less than 2k on steam The division 2 gets less than 5,000 players on steam Star wars outlaws is basically DOA getting cooked by the gaming media left and right and now analysts are saying it's underperforming in sales Assassin's Creed shadows is getting the most hate at assassin's Creed game has gotten since unity But ubisoft thinks x defiant is the game they need to shut down 🤦🏽🤦🏽
yeah ubisoft has been honestly destroying their reputation lately and it doesn't give players confidence... from statements like "players need to get comfortable not owning their games" to some of their C suite execs stepping down in recent years including the brother of one of the founders, I don't think the company has the best leadership
same, I really want to see it get the time and updates it deserves, I think ubisoft needs to be more aware of the market and saying things like they have until s3 is a bit out of touch with whatever exec picked that specific timeline (I want to see where the game is come jan or feb when cod is winding down a bit) giving an ultimatum around the launch of the game's biggest competitor isn't very smart by the company leadership
I agree with you completely. 100%. Hold a playlist of maps and double XP, most of us casual players are not even close to the max out level of weapons! the collateral casualty due to Assassins it will be flop as well as Outlovs will be Xdefiant
the company will try to blame a free to play game possibly and may be in a spot where they're preemptively trying to cut costs in order to try to get in a better spot financially, the stock for the company is the lowest it has been in a while or ever at this current moment, so they are trying to move parts around even shown when they did the 45 layoffs a week or 2 ago
I totally agree and ppl argued saying "those ppl r broke and shouldn't play games" which is baffling imagine feeling superior to somebody over something so dumb, only thing I think it would lack is 120hz so last gen would have disadvantages, but I don't think it would be game-ruining for them, most issues with this game aside from content depth seem to be network related and not hardware related in terms of processing or graphical power
I knew the input based matchmaking was on and I felt like I didn't have trouble getting a match Granted there had been times when it took a while but I also had some reading material so those times didn't feel to long
I don't take too long to matchmake, it just feels like my region has a lot of really high ping players connecting and it kinda kills the gunplay for me when somebody has my input delay boosted bc ubisoft won't give them a closer server
Honestly what really fucked xdefiant was the season 1 patch, the game seemed to have regressed on the first week of the season, more bugs, the game became unplayable on the playstation.... This really killed the momentum
I think not having score streaks was the biggest mistake of this game. So many people want something to work for mid-game. And guaranteed specialist abilities are not appealing enough for most people on their own 🤷♀
I think they may have been able to even hit a middle ground with earning abilities for each faction via streaks like "firebomb after x streak, fire drone after x more, ult after x amount" rather than just being free abilities
The feeling of not getting that W sucks for sure. Part of why I won't play ranked, my ping ranges from 45 to 100, I miss tons of those kills, I soaked 3 12 gauge shots into a player yesterday... silver lining is my assist count is super high tho lol I still think it's a good game. Will be dope once they iron out more wrinkles. I speculate season 2 will provide a lot more than originally intended
That would be really great, I don't think they can stick to the initial plan, they need to call some audibles and are hopefully on the same page between the devs and execs
@dartlinfps I don't see them sitting on the years developed content anymore. Too many sick shooters coming out within a year, it's shit or get off the pot and they're gonna start shittin that content all over the place. I'm actually pretty optimistic about gaming right now. We've got Delta Force, Marathon, Frag Punk, Exoborne, Split gate 2 and more all on the horizon! XD will be right there in the rotation!
I think so too, xd hhas way too much of a cult following for these tasteless suits to just drop it (sorry if you read this, doubt it tho) xdefiant is one of those things ppl clearly feel strongly about and the fans will not let it die quietly the way concord did (I think that game was insane to drop a hero shooter with no ultimate abilities)
Game’s biggest mistake is scraping PS4 and Xbox one x, a large percentage of people still play the older consoles whether people like it or not, STATS DONT LIE. Why do you think COD hasn’t made that move? Because they’ll lose a large player base. I’m calling it now Xdefiant won’t get past season 3, so spend wisely. UBISOFT stock just fell hard today to so that not good for Xdefiant studios.
I agree, the game doesn't seem so complex that it couldn't play on those systems, even if it was limited at 60hz... ppl overlook that the world is not in the best spot financially these past few years and tons of ppl are still on last gen consoles, playerbase would def be a lot larger if they had that
I own a Xbox One X it’s still a great console I don’t see any reason of buying a new console, especially if I’m a casual Xbox player, Xbox games don’t have any major exclusives🤷🏽 and I’m not a fan of PS, just don’t like the controls and the PS UI. Only game I’ll buy a new console for is GTA6, but that will happen when GTA 6 comes out
yeah, I play on pc got one in 2019 or so, I haven't seen a single next gen game on ps5 or xbox that made me say "I need one of those" I think flagship games are way less common now esp with crossplay and online games making more money for companies (starting to see a big trend in single player and indie games lately though bc ppl are sick of the greedy company practices)
lol wasn't nervous, that's just the voice of somebody who had an ego death maybe nervous about the future of the game, that's just my voice, you can go listen to any video on the channel or any of the 1000+ i posted on the dartlin gaming channel... it's just my voice lol some ppl have said rami malek other ppl said I sound like the guy from a clear eyes commercial it could also be the noise cancellation I am using which chops some parts of words off if they dip below a certain threshold
same, I think the game is just in a growth phase as much as ppl would say it's "dying" itll never be as big as launch nor will any game, but it can be in a way better spot than currently
When they add private match so comp players can play without the bullshit like spider bots and bouncing betty i'll come back. Its a good game for casuals but if you want to play competitive you're shit out of luck.
I've heard some other creators say this, it's fun when you don't take it too serious which is true, I think the players that are more sensitive to things like delays, ttk being inconsistent, etc are more likely to get impatient with the game, there's nothing like feeling like you are working towards improving your skills but you're fighting against an invisible force that you have no control over (network issues)
The spider bot, which you can shoot before it jumps, shoot after it jumps, or have a teammate shoot it off you, bothers you, but the "YOU ARE FUCKING DEAD, GET FUCKING FUCKED" landmine doesn't?
CD project red must've been happy the day concord was shut down. They're no longer the biggest failure in gaming history. To be fair they made sort of a comeback it's not duoer mainstream but a fair amount of people play it. Maybe concord can too!
It happens to me too. I find players who don't get all the bullets and it's super frustrating. I don't know if they're cheating or something. I say that those situations kill the game.
I never heard of it but screenshots look nice on google, looks like a better version of saints row or maybe an alternative to gta online, sometimes these kinda business models work though esp if the fanbase is passionate
@@dartlinfps Yeah, kinda. It feels like SR2, predates GTA online and it's PvP only. Plays similarly to Rogue Company but in an open world environment. Console version got taken down for now but it's still available on PC. Kinda crazy to think that they wanna pull the plug so soon on XD for "only" having 15k or 20k players when I been playin games that only have hundreds or dozens of players for years lol. They wanna talk about low revenue but they put out a free game n got 3 things in the damn store. Tf am I gonna buy? I can't even get a XDef hoodie or hat irl either? CoD got a store full of merch tho lol
"dead game" merch just like the Diablo 4 team made damage on Tuesdays shirts lmao 🤣😂 I don't think it was an official release but I think either content creators or people within the dev teams were making custom shirts for each other
Everyone wants to "defeat" CoD but no one really copy what is making CoD different from every other game: THE STREAKS. Why no one is copying that thing? Is addicting af, dopamine rush streaks UAV into everything else.
Multiple ppl have said this I think abilities should have been behind streaks instead of just free cheesy kills lol maybe even each faction being able to access all their abilities at various points like the ult is a decent streak like 8 or so (ppl would have said it's too hard to use abilities though)
The problem is, a game like this needs fresh new content WEEKLY. I enjoyed the game till the last few weeks of season 1 then I fell off the game. Once S2 dropped I played for a week and it was back to stale real quick. Too much time not enough content. This game needed another few years of development before it dropped
I agree with the needing content weekly look at the way that Call of Duty is doing it even warzone has nearly weekly stuff even if sometimes it's pointless attachments... This whole game as a service thing and battle passes and seasons works better with arpg games or battle royale games where you're less likely to have the same situation twice
Making a brand new engine for a barebones fps game is so stupid. Making new content takes an insane amount of time and the game was bleeding players before the first season because of it.
yeah, I don't know what they're expecting out of a small team, especially while laying ppl off and causing teams to have to restructure etc, essentially making the process harder...it seems counterproductive to the goals of the game especially when they've presented it as a long term project
Been around the block a few times shooters wise and in my honest opinion this game isn’t going to make it. Never seen a shooter fall off player wise so fast before. Nothing pushed by a big publisher that is. Besides concord now…
you're right, I think I have seen some close ones like shatterline which is now even said to be going an nft route, but things are not looking the best judging off what we have to go off of
they probably spent a good amount of money making it, I think they like to hide their numbers on the ubisoft launcher so that investors don't get scared off
Well said man. But as for as the netcode goes, I'm on a $3000 rig and wired internet and still getting screwed against console players with super bullets...
true, and trying to compete with something that is massively established while being a more niche thing like a hero shooter etc there was a bunch of mistakes to learn from def, I personally enjoy the game and hope it gets to the place where I think it can but that's not up to me...
About the chair thing I'm pretty sure it's happened 2 other times too. But their all in China cause they don't have as many regulations on checking stuff.
I'm ALWAYS going to make sure chairs have a metal plate between the hydraulic assembly and the seat from now on when I'm assembling...I think my current one does, but it's insane that even happened to anybody, I bet the family got little or nothing from the company the chair came from either
Just played defiant and it felt like I was stuck in mud. Love the no sbmm and feeling like I can outgun people, or that I’m not being manipulated. But they called it a movement shooter and b hops feel like shit
I was getting weird dead slides while just running around the map and stuff today, maybe bc I had an lmg, but my inputs even felt delayed, maybe bc every lobby had huge ping differences between players...b hops aren't really viable anymore that's for sure, you can maybe do 2 with the height reduction now kicking in how it does
It has movement but the gun skill matters more especially with this ttk. You can jump around all you want if you can't shoot you're not getting the kill
I like to spam crouch while holding breath hold and make ppl think my aim is swayed only to beam them from a headglitch, snaking is really bad right now imo you can breath hold and infinite crouch spam without penalty as long as you hold l3 or shift
if they removed the air directional movement and had it closer to cod2/4 and made the recoil harder and didnt have stupid abilities ... this game would have smashed! .. but we have laser beam guns and abilities that are way too overpowered .. it gets boring
What about private lobbies versus friends and bots to hone our skills so we could be better players I think this is one of the biggest things everybody’s missing sometimes people want to play the game just to have fun. There is no campaign mode for you to be a casual shooter guy so in order for you to not have to play sweats all the time private lobbies against friends would be fun and against bots is also the awesome remedy for casual shooter base and for tryhard who just wish to try to skills against other sweats it would just make the game more fun in general, which would sustain way more players because practicing would make their actual gameplay more meaningful and they will see better results
great call, this could be good for content creators and communities in general, I honestly think a campaign or something for 30$ or so could be really helpful to the game potentially, maybe a campaign or pve mode that comes with some bonus skins, I think people might love that esp if it's something you can do co op with friends locally on the couch or via party... I would consider myself a "sweat" but I can't play the game seriously with headphones on and not get mad so I just play out of my pc speakers and listen to youtube vids anytime I am playing, I still get snuck up on from behind, but at least I don't feel like I wasted money on my 500$ headphones and preamp (I use those for music too so no waste) but I feel like I can only take the game so seriously I think the game is too inconsistent to be a true "esport" in the current state, this is why many of the best players who had any following in other games moved back to cod or valorant etc... I love the game and I truly think ideas like these that give something to take action on are SO MUCH more beneficial than "stop complaining" or "games dead" I think esp at this moment nuance is KEY
@@dartlinfps Hey man add me on obisoft so we can squad up some times playa 😵😵💫💥💥🔫 Gang Gang 💪🏾🫡👀 my gamer tag is Ark_injeel I sent you a friend request
Cod was playable over and over again with not much new content because people wanted to get nukes etc. This game should have had killstreaks instead of abilities IMO.
a nuke would be awesome in this game tbh, even if the abilities were earned as streaks they could be way less annoying to some ppl id imagine too...nothing like getting hit with a free kill from 1 button press ability from somebody who didn't happen to have footsteps lol
I love this game in terms of gunplay and I like most of the maps but I been around 2 months without playing it because the lack of content. I came back to XDefiant yesterday after try the horrible Black Ops 6 and it feels orgasmic in comparison but again except 2 new maps there was nothing new, in fact I felt the lack of players because it was taking me long to find a lobby in Occupy. I think this game will die cause the lack of content mainly, and the lack of a battleroyale mode "unfortunally looks like this primordial nowdays". Also I think that the "woke inclusive and anti-white man" lack of seriousness aesthetics from the characters doesn't help either, just look what happen to Star Wars Outlaws, o Concord, people are tired of this political agenda idieology forced inside the games.
this game could be really cool with a br as much as it sounds ironic and dumb lol it would help the playerbase, I think a pve mode or a paid story mode for 20 bucks or something could also potentially help things out
I agree I think many ppl r sick of hero shooter and just want boots on the ground modern setting fps + netcode is just such a fundamental and necessary part in an fps game
2:07 you got a double kill by pressing one button while looking at the floor and that wasn’t even an ultimate. This is the real reason xdefiant is dying. This is the honest truth. Too many casual mechanics. This game is anti competitive. The real competitive gamers have left the building and the only ones left are the casuals that only log in for 20 minutes once a week without making any purchases. Sorry for the brutal truth.
TRUTH, I started using that because it's so dumb it's free multi kills ppl said that I was wrong when I said this type of thing should be this games version of streaks you have to earn by getting multiple kills without dying rather than it just being given to ppl, its TOTAL CHEESE mechanics and it's honestly annoying to go against... this, spiderbot, the wallhacks ability at the start of the game even being a uav for the whole team and highlighting ppl like wallhacks, etc... it was all participation trophies that make it hard to take the game too seriously I totally agree with you, I think aside from the broken netcode and stuff, a lot of ppl just wanted a shooter first game and some of these mechanics take away from the shooter game part
I play Xdefiant everyday with M&K. Yesterday I did 4 mvp in a row and more than 30kills/game against pad players. I don't care what they use, I focus on myself. It's not pad or m/k. Every FPS game is about skills. If someone wants to improve he/she should analyse the performace and have a roadmap to fix the errors. FPS are E-sports. In sport if you want to be better you have to workout. It's the same, is muscle memory. Blaming others because of their input it's not the way to develop skills and it's not the way to improve. this concept apply to all the competitive fps games. From the first to the last.
I never mentioned input aside from controller having lower ping enemies with ibmm on...I said IM TIRED OF PLAYING PUERTO RICO PAUL and VIRGIN ISLANDS VINCENT with 150+ ping every lobby because I live on the coast...I have a problem playing against players that should not be in my lobby if ping is king... I am usually at the top of my leaderboard, but when I log into a match and see 4 ppl on the enemy team with 120+ ping i am OUT...I refuse to have coin flip gunfights because ubisoft is too cheap to buy servers for south and central americans yeah maybe they don't bring enough profit for the company but it's been a problem since 2019 mw because of lack of servers closer to these folks
Not a sport 😂😂 get a life what made FPS games like Halo & Cod popular was because they were fun. MLG, streamers and RUclipsrs have completely ruined the fps experience. Back in the day you could jump on Cod 4, Halo 3 etc and just have fun with friends. Now you got to sweat away against players that spend 7 hours a day playing because apparently it’s a sport.
With your logic, a Toyota Yaris can beat a formula 1 if the driver is dedicated and becomes better 😂. Delusional. I understand what you are saying but youre analogy is terrible. Platform and input make huge differences. Also, your analogy is also weird. How do you know people were playing on pads? And pads response time is as fast as MnK so, if they are good with it, its just a form of playing. And also, pads arent supported so them using third party software to link it up or third party hardware is literally against ToS in 99% of multiplayer games. Particularly cause of the gateways for script uses. Now going back to your logic, you really believe a console player, possibly on a 60hz tv, is going to compete against a 300hz monitor + mid-high performance pc? 😂
Most of the time people complain for the sake of complaining, a lot of people say about netcode but, they dont show clip or anything. Feels like if wasnt for rhe netcode they would get 100-0 lol, probably they have been dropping nukes all bo6 lobbies ( or no cuz "theres sbmm" 😂😂😂)
ppl will always complain, if there wasn't something legit to have problems with people would still find something small to nitpick though, netcode is a legit issue though, there's countless video examples and people even argue against it or blame the person experiencing it like they can afford to move to a diff location and get a new internet service provider or like they should over a video game in the first place lol I think netcode has improved but regardless of netcode playing vs a 140+ ping player is going to be bad and that's more due to the current player pool im matching with in my region and ubisoft's unwillingness to get more south and central american servers (activision does it too)
@@dartlinfps yeah, I'm from SA , sometimes I match with US players yet the netcode doesn't seem so bad, but id they get a vector/mp7 things start getting silly
lol as somebody who considers myself a decent player I honestly don't care about losing, I care about feeling like I am getting inconsistency in hitreg and player position on the server...warzone feels more sweaty bc of the ping discrepancy, mp cod is usually really easy and predictable, I have more fun sadly on warzone than mp because I think my more casual friends appreciate the higher stakes of warzone more usually rebirth
Xd came with a "C" plan. Instead.of a "A" plan. They were riding on the title "XD the COD killer". They should have known better. They are competing with COD. They should have started with a good amount of content. This game last hope is season 2. I see this game gone after season 2.
I think they should possibly do a big update giving more content than planned because the current roadmap is probably too little too late...also the whole cod audience they catered to in the first place are very fickle, my only reason for wanting to appeal to that crowd is possibly bc cod players buy a bunch of skins, but I think the game needed to be more fully fleshed out in order to make the money they wanted...even the cod audience plays the mp for like 3 months and is otherwise playing warzone or at least that's how it seems, the last couple titles cared more about warzone than mp
Only people calling it a cod killer was cod haters. They just said they wouldn't have sbmm but never tried to actually take out cod. That would be Ludacris
@PrinceDyspo cod hater or not they were competing with COD. That's their downfall. BF, medal of.honor and titan fall all fail due to lack of content. BF had bugs up A**.
This game is just bad, accept it. It is very bad, in terms of everything, graphics, audio, net code, maps...etc. It is a bad game, and was always destined to fail.
@ChevyRedneckGFX I haven't played Cod since 2019, I tried MW3 when it came to gamepass, but I unistalled because I didn't like it. Also, if someone doesn't like Xdefiant, it does not mean he is a cod fanboy. I think this is one of the reasons that makes me want this game to fail, because the xdefiant community is a bunch of fanatics who think that Ubisoft is the prophet who is going to save them from Cod and activision, and will insult you and accuse you of being a cod fanboy if you criticize anything about the game on reddit or twitter. They just can't accept that the game they believed in is just a bad game in literally every aspect.

I just want them to fix the netcode. No pvp multiplayer game should release if the hit reg isnt on point.
same, easily my BIGGEST problem, the netcode affects everything from hitreg, to dying around corners, to having no enemy footsteps at times...dropping without those fundamentals is like trying to go to the nba without being able to do a left hand layup
Skull and bones dropped in February and alrady has less than 2k players on steam

Star wars outlaws is basically DOA getting cooked by the gaming media left and right and now analysts are saying it's underperforming in sales
Assassin's Creed shadows is getting the most hate at assassin's Creed game has gotten since unity
But ubisoft thinks x defiant is the game they need to shut down 🤦🏽🤦🏽
yeah ubisoft has been honestly destroying their reputation lately and it doesn't give players confidence... from statements like "players need to get comfortable not owning their games" to some of their C suite execs stepping down in recent years including the brother of one of the founders, I don't think the company has the best leadership
I love xd I hope it makes it
same, I really want to see it get the time and updates it deserves, I think ubisoft needs to be more aware of the market and saying things like they have until s3 is a bit out of touch with whatever exec picked that specific timeline (I want to see where the game is come jan or feb when cod is winding down a bit) giving an ultimatum around the launch of the game's biggest competitor isn't very smart by the company leadership
I agree with you completely. 100%.
Hold a playlist of maps and double XP, most of us casual players are not even close to the max out level of weapons! the collateral casualty due to Assassins it will be flop as well as Outlovs will be Xdefiant
the company will try to blame a free to play game possibly and may be in a spot where they're preemptively trying to cut costs in order to try to get in a better spot financially, the stock for the company is the lowest it has been in a while or ever at this current moment, so they are trying to move parts around even shown when they did the 45 layoffs a week or 2 ago
Stopped playing a month ago …. Reason…. I got bored with the same maps over and over.
that's the lack of content portion that I think is equally burning ppl out as fast maybe faster than the netcode issues
A new map literally dropped this month and we get a new one every month. The first season ain't even over yet
BO6 has fewer maps and guns. They just have 50,000 sidequests like Fortnite, so you never feel accomplished.
issues with this game... netcode, grinding, hit registration and ubisoft
So basically everything expect SBMM
@@acev3521 specially ubisoft
ubisoft is prob the worst part...look the company and its execs up as well as who has stepped down/been let off...nepotism is afoot
So, the same thing as bo6?
@@MotionBankzzz bo6 is beta and cod has its fair share of bullshit but not at that extent
that game probably would have more players if it was playable on ps4 and xbox one
I totally agree and ppl argued saying "those ppl r broke and shouldn't play games" which is baffling imagine feeling superior to somebody over something so dumb, only thing I think it would lack is 120hz so last gen would have disadvantages, but I don't think it would be game-ruining for them, most issues with this game aside from content depth seem to be network related and not hardware related in terms of processing or graphical power
The gameplay is fine to me, but ever since I got my Deadlock invite I've just been addicted to that game instead.
I still gotta try that out
I would've lived without ever worrying about the chair thing and from now on it will be in the back of my mind 😂
fortunately the chances are much lower than winning the lottery lol
I knew the input based matchmaking was on and I felt like I didn't have trouble getting a match
Granted there had been times when it took a while but I also had some reading material so those times didn't feel to long
I don't take too long to matchmake, it just feels like my region has a lot of really high ping players connecting and it kinda kills the gunplay for me when somebody has my input delay boosted bc ubisoft won't give them a closer server
Honestly what really fucked xdefiant was the season 1 patch, the game seemed to have regressed on the first week of the season, more bugs, the game became unplayable on the playstation.... This really killed the momentum
that's true, also even day 1 of the season seemed lackluster and there were so many bugs it almost feel super anticlimactic
I think not having score streaks was the biggest mistake of this game. So many people want something to work for mid-game. And guaranteed specialist abilities are not appealing enough for most people on their own 🤷♀
I think they may have been able to even hit a middle ground with earning abilities for each faction via streaks like "firebomb after x streak, fire drone after x more, ult after x amount" rather than just being free abilities
@@dartlinfps agreed!
The feeling of not getting that W sucks for sure. Part of why I won't play ranked, my ping ranges from 45 to 100, I miss tons of those kills, I soaked 3 12 gauge shots into a player yesterday... silver lining is my assist count is super high tho lol
I still think it's a good game. Will be dope once they iron out more wrinkles. I speculate season 2 will provide a lot more than originally intended
That would be really great, I don't think they can stick to the initial plan, they need to call some audibles and are hopefully on the same page between the devs and execs
@dartlinfps I don't see them sitting on the years developed content anymore. Too many sick shooters coming out within a year, it's shit or get off the pot and they're gonna start shittin that content all over the place.
I'm actually pretty optimistic about gaming right now. We've got Delta Force, Marathon, Frag Punk, Exoborne, Split gate 2 and more all on the horizon! XD will be right there in the rotation!
I think so too, xd hhas way too much of a cult following for these tasteless suits to just drop it (sorry if you read this, doubt it tho) xdefiant is one of those things ppl clearly feel strongly about and the fans will not let it die quietly the way concord did (I think that game was insane to drop a hero shooter with no ultimate abilities)

Game’s biggest mistake is scraping PS4 and Xbox one x, a large percentage of people still play the older consoles whether people like it or not, STATS DONT LIE.
Why do you think COD hasn’t made that move? Because they’ll lose a large player base.
I’m calling it now Xdefiant won’t get past season 3, so spend wisely. UBISOFT stock just fell hard today to so that not good for Xdefiant studios.
I agree, the game doesn't seem so complex that it couldn't play on those systems, even if it was limited at 60hz... ppl overlook that the world is not in the best spot financially these past few years and tons of ppl are still on last gen consoles, playerbase would def be a lot larger if they had that
I own a Xbox One X it’s still a great console I don’t see any reason of buying a new console, especially if I’m a casual Xbox player, Xbox games don’t have any major exclusives🤷🏽 and I’m not a fan of PS, just don’t like the controls and the PS UI.
Only game I’ll buy a new console for is GTA6, but that will happen when GTA 6 comes out
@@dartlinfpstrust me if I can play this game I’ll be playing right now. I’m just hoping I’m wrong and they turn it around
yeah, I play on pc got one in 2019 or so, I haven't seen a single next gen game on ps5 or xbox that made me say "I need one of those" I think flagship games are way less common now esp with crossplay and online games making more money for companies (starting to see a big trend in single player and indie games lately though bc ppl are sick of the greedy company practices)
Out of everything i heard the nervousness in your voice but somehow you pushed through the whole video thats a W for me my bro!
lol wasn't nervous, that's just the voice of somebody who had an ego death
maybe nervous about the future of the game, that's just my voice, you can go listen to any video on the channel or any of the 1000+ i posted on the dartlin gaming channel...
it's just my voice lol some ppl have said rami malek other ppl said I sound like the guy from a clear eyes commercial
it could also be the noise cancellation I am using which chops some parts of words off if they dip below a certain threshold
@@dartlinfps you sound high af my dude lmaoooo
I still play Xdefiant
same, I think the game is just in a growth phase as much as ppl would say it's "dying" itll never be as big as launch nor will any game, but it can be in a way better spot than currently
2:53 But it's true, peaople like fair fights, they like to fight players that are on their skill level, not everyone's a challenger...
When they add private match so comp players can play without the bullshit like spider bots and bouncing betty i'll come back. Its a good game for casuals but if you want to play competitive you're shit out of luck.
I've heard some other creators say this, it's fun when you don't take it too serious which is true, I think the players that are more sensitive to things like delays, ttk being inconsistent, etc are more likely to get impatient with the game, there's nothing like feeling like you are working towards improving your skills but you're fighting against an invisible force that you have no control over (network issues)
The spider bot, which you can shoot before it jumps, shoot after it jumps, or have a teammate shoot it off you, bothers you, but the "YOU ARE FUCKING DEAD, GET FUCKING FUCKED" landmine doesn't?
CD project red must've been happy the day concord was shut down. They're no longer the biggest failure in gaming history. To be fair they made sort of a comeback it's not duoer mainstream but a fair amount of people play it. Maybe concord can too!
It happens to me too. I find players who don't get all the bullets and it's super frustrating. I don't know if they're cheating or something. I say that those situations kill the game.
I always look and it's almost always somebody with insanely high ping, I wonder if they feel like they're lagging or if they feel like superman
APB has a similar story to Concord. Maybe they'll return as Concord Reloaded and maintain a small player base lol
I never heard of it but screenshots look nice on google, looks like a better version of saints row or maybe an alternative to gta online, sometimes these kinda business models work though esp if the fanbase is passionate
@@dartlinfps Yeah, kinda. It feels like SR2, predates GTA online and it's PvP only. Plays similarly to Rogue Company but in an open world environment. Console version got taken down for now but it's still available on PC. Kinda crazy to think that they wanna pull the plug so soon on XD for "only" having 15k or 20k players when I been playin games that only have hundreds or dozens of players for years lol. They wanna talk about low revenue but they put out a free game n got 3 things in the damn store. Tf am I gonna buy? I can't even get a XDef hoodie or hat irl either? CoD got a store full of merch tho lol
thats a great point I never considered, where TF is the xdefiant merch I would buy some
@@dartlinfps They could even make "XDefiant Sucks" merch on the low and make a fortune 🤣
"dead game" merch just like the Diablo 4 team made damage on Tuesdays shirts lmao 🤣😂 I don't think it was an official release but I think either content creators or people within the dev teams were making custom shirts for each other
Everyone wants to "defeat" CoD but no one really copy what is making CoD different from every other game: THE STREAKS. Why no one is copying that thing? Is addicting af, dopamine rush streaks UAV into everything else.
Multiple ppl have said this I think abilities should have been behind streaks instead of just free cheesy kills lol maybe even each faction being able to access all their abilities at various points like the ult is a decent streak like 8 or so (ppl would have said it's too hard to use abilities though)
The problem is, a game like this needs fresh new content WEEKLY. I enjoyed the game till the last few weeks of season 1 then I fell off the game. Once S2 dropped I played for a week and it was back to stale real quick. Too much time not enough content. This game needed another few years of development before it dropped
I agree with the needing content weekly look at the way that Call of Duty is doing it even warzone has nearly weekly stuff even if sometimes it's pointless attachments...
This whole game as a service thing and battle passes and seasons works better with arpg games or battle royale games where you're less likely to have the same situation twice
Making a brand new engine for a barebones fps game is so stupid. Making new content takes an insane amount of time and the game was bleeding players before the first season because of it.
Nothing can kill cod
except cod itself lol
It's still a good game, ubisoft needs to let the devs work and stop being greedy
yeah, I don't know what they're expecting out of a small team, especially while laying ppl off and causing teams to have to restructure etc, essentially making the process harder...it seems counterproductive to the goals of the game especially when they've presented it as a long term project
@dartlinfps ubisoft only wants money, Mark Rubin wants xdefiant to live but he needs to talk to us the fans
@@dartlinfpsthere isn’t an immediate ROI. That’s why this games in trouble.
@@rezcellent doubt skull and bones had one either
@@PrinceDyspo they were forced to make S&B because of a government contract.. or that POS wouldn’t exist either.
ironically id take concord over Xdefunctive anyday..even the day before was more fun for what it was
I never tried it but I heard it was good, I think the price tag may be why it flopped, but they had to sell the game with the cost of development
Been around the block a few times shooters wise and in my honest opinion this game isn’t going to make it. Never seen a shooter fall off player wise so fast before. Nothing pushed by a big publisher that is. Besides concord now…
you're right, I think I have seen some close ones like shatterline which is now even said to be going an nft route, but things are not looking the best judging off what we have to go off of
Ubis gotta salvage some money from Starwars outlaws haha.
they probably spent a good amount of money making it, I think they like to hide their numbers on the ubisoft launcher so that investors don't get scared off
Well said man. But as for as the netcode goes, I'm on a $3000 rig and wired internet and still getting screwed against console players with super bullets...
same, it's really rough esp on kbam
This is what happens when all your game is good for is capitalizing on the mistakes of other games.
true, and trying to compete with something that is massively established while being a more niche thing like a hero shooter etc there was a bunch of mistakes to learn from def, I personally enjoy the game and hope it gets to the place where I think it can but that's not up to me...
About the chair thing I'm pretty sure it's happened 2 other times too. But their all in China cause they don't have as many regulations on checking stuff.
I'm ALWAYS going to make sure chairs have a metal plate between the hydraulic assembly and the seat from now on when I'm assembling...I think my current one does, but it's insane that even happened to anybody, I bet the family got little or nothing from the company the chair came from either
Just played defiant and it felt like I was stuck in mud. Love the no sbmm and feeling like I can outgun people, or that I’m not being manipulated. But they called it a movement shooter and b hops feel like shit
I was getting weird dead slides while just running around the map and stuff today, maybe bc I had an lmg, but my inputs even felt delayed, maybe bc every lobby had huge ping differences between players...b hops aren't really viable anymore that's for sure, you can maybe do 2 with the height reduction now kicking in how it does
It has movement but the gun skill matters more especially with this ttk. You can jump around all you want if you can't shoot you're not getting the kill
I think the moment in this game is second to none 😮
@PrinceDyspo it's super satisfying winning the gunfight when thyre try harding and jumping all over the place
I like to spam crouch while holding breath hold and make ppl think my aim is swayed only to beam them from a headglitch, snaking is really bad right now imo you can breath hold and infinite crouch spam without penalty as long as you hold l3 or shift
if they removed the air directional movement and had it closer to cod2/4 and made the recoil harder and didnt have stupid abilities ... this game would have smashed! ..
but we have laser beam guns and abilities that are way too overpowered .. it gets boring
What about private lobbies versus friends and bots to hone our skills so we could be better players I think this is one of the biggest things everybody’s missing sometimes people want to play the game just to have fun. There is no campaign mode for you to be a casual shooter guy so in order for you to not have to play sweats all the time private lobbies against friends would be fun and against bots is also the awesome remedy for casual shooter base and for tryhard who just wish to try to skills against other sweats it would just make the game more fun in general, which would sustain way more players because practicing would make their actual gameplay more meaningful and they will see better results
great call, this could be good for content creators and communities in general, I honestly think a campaign or something for 30$ or so could be really helpful to the game potentially, maybe a campaign or pve mode that comes with some bonus skins, I think people might love that esp if it's something you can do co op with friends locally on the couch or via party... I would consider myself a "sweat" but I can't play the game seriously with headphones on and not get mad so I just play out of my pc speakers and listen to youtube vids anytime I am playing, I still get snuck up on from behind, but at least I don't feel like I wasted money on my 500$ headphones and preamp (I use those for music too so no waste) but I feel like I can only take the game so seriously
I think the game is too inconsistent to be a true "esport" in the current state, this is why many of the best players who had any following in other games moved back to cod or valorant etc...
I love the game and I truly think ideas like these that give something to take action on are SO MUCH more beneficial than "stop complaining" or "games dead" I think esp at this moment nuance is KEY
@@dartlinfps Hey man add me on obisoft so we can squad up some times playa 😵😵💫💥💥🔫 Gang Gang 💪🏾🫡👀 my gamer tag is Ark_injeel I sent you a friend request
Cod was playable over and over again with not much new content because people wanted to get nukes etc. This game should have had killstreaks instead of abilities IMO.
a nuke would be awesome in this game tbh, even if the abilities were earned as streaks they could be way less annoying to some ppl id imagine too...nothing like getting hit with a free kill from 1 button press ability from somebody who didn't happen to have footsteps lol
I love this game in terms of gunplay and I like most of the maps but I been around 2 months without playing it because the lack of content. I came back to XDefiant yesterday after try the horrible Black Ops 6 and it feels orgasmic in comparison but again except 2 new maps there was nothing new, in fact I felt the lack of players because it was taking me long to find a lobby in Occupy. I think this game will die cause the lack of content mainly, and the lack of a battleroyale mode "unfortunally looks like this primordial nowdays". Also I think that the "woke inclusive and anti-white man" lack of seriousness aesthetics from the characters doesn't help either, just look what happen to Star Wars Outlaws, o Concord, people are tired of this political agenda idieology forced inside the games.
this game could be really cool with a br as much as it sounds ironic and dumb lol it would help the playerbase, I think a pve mode or a paid story mode for 20 bucks or something could also potentially help things out
For me in all honesty, I stopped playing the game because the netcode is so bad and I’m also pretty sick of the hero shooter genre
I agree I think many ppl r sick of hero shooter and just want boots on the ground modern setting fps + netcode is just such a fundamental and necessary part in an fps game
2:07 you got a double kill by pressing one button while looking at the floor and that wasn’t even an ultimate. This is the real reason xdefiant is dying. This is the honest truth. Too many casual mechanics. This game is anti competitive. The real competitive gamers have left the building and the only ones left are the casuals that only log in for 20 minutes once a week without making any purchases. Sorry for the brutal truth.
TRUTH, I started using that because it's so dumb it's free multi kills ppl said that I was wrong when I said this type of thing should be this games version of streaks you have to earn by getting multiple kills without dying rather than it just being given to ppl, its TOTAL CHEESE mechanics and it's honestly annoying to go against... this, spiderbot, the wallhacks ability at the start of the game even being a uav for the whole team and highlighting ppl like wallhacks, etc... it was all participation trophies that make it hard to take the game too seriously
I totally agree with you, I think aside from the broken netcode and stuff, a lot of ppl just wanted a shooter first game and some of these mechanics take away from the shooter game part
@@dartlinfps i feel you man and i agree.
X D better than black ops 6
I feel like it, I wish I could get more stable connections lately
I play Xdefiant everyday with M&K. Yesterday I did 4 mvp in a row and more than 30kills/game against pad players. I don't care what they use, I focus on myself. It's not pad or m/k. Every FPS game is about skills. If someone wants to improve he/she should analyse the performace and have a roadmap to fix the errors. FPS are E-sports. In sport if you want to be better you have to workout. It's the same, is muscle memory. Blaming others because of their input it's not the way to develop skills and it's not the way to improve. this concept apply to all the competitive fps games. From the first to the last.
I never mentioned input aside from controller having lower ping enemies with ibmm on...I said IM TIRED OF PLAYING PUERTO RICO PAUL and VIRGIN ISLANDS VINCENT with 150+ ping every lobby because I live on the coast...I have a problem playing against players that should not be in my lobby if ping is king... I am usually at the top of my leaderboard, but when I log into a match and see 4 ppl on the enemy team with 120+ ping i am OUT...I refuse to have coin flip gunfights because ubisoft is too cheap to buy servers for south and central americans
yeah maybe they don't bring enough profit for the company but it's been a problem since 2019 mw because of lack of servers closer to these folks
Not a sport 😂😂 get a life what made FPS games like Halo & Cod popular was because they were fun. MLG, streamers and RUclipsrs have completely ruined the fps experience. Back in the day you could jump on Cod 4, Halo 3 etc and just have fun with friends. Now you got to sweat away against players that spend 7 hours a day playing because apparently it’s a sport.
With your logic, a Toyota Yaris can beat a formula 1 if the driver is dedicated and becomes better 😂. Delusional.
I understand what you are saying but youre analogy is terrible. Platform and input make huge differences.
Also, your analogy is also weird. How do you know people were playing on pads? And pads response time is as fast as MnK so, if they are good with it, its just a form of playing.
And also, pads arent supported so them using third party software to link it up or third party hardware is literally against ToS in 99% of multiplayer games. Particularly cause of the gateways for script uses.
Now going back to your logic, you really believe a console player, possibly on a 60hz tv, is going to compete against a 300hz monitor + mid-high performance pc? 😂
#savexdefiant
Most of the time people complain for the sake of complaining, a lot of people say about netcode but, they dont show clip or anything. Feels like if wasnt for rhe netcode they would get 100-0 lol, probably they have been dropping nukes all bo6 lobbies ( or no cuz "theres sbmm" 😂😂😂)
ppl will always complain, if there wasn't something legit to have problems with people would still find something small to nitpick though, netcode is a legit issue though, there's countless video examples and people even argue against it or blame the person experiencing it like they can afford to move to a diff location and get a new internet service provider or like they should over a video game in the first place lol
I think netcode has improved but regardless of netcode playing vs a 140+ ping player is going to be bad and that's more due to the current player pool im matching with in my region and ubisoft's unwillingness to get more south and central american servers (activision does it too)
@@dartlinfps yeah, I'm from SA , sometimes I match with US players yet the netcode doesn't seem so bad, but id they get a vector/mp7 things start getting silly
@@RamsLiff they could possibly benefit by increasing ttk bc god knows these corporate suits aren't allocating more servers sadly
I think there is more SBMM in Xdefiant than CoD. Warzone not so much but MP CoD is a cake walk
lol as somebody who considers myself a decent player I honestly don't care about losing, I care about feeling like I am getting inconsistency in hitreg and player position on the server...warzone feels more sweaty bc of the ping discrepancy, mp cod is usually really easy and predictable, I have more fun sadly on warzone than mp because I think my more casual friends appreciate the higher stakes of warzone more usually rebirth
Xd came with a "C" plan. Instead.of a "A" plan. They were riding on the title "XD the COD killer". They should have known better. They are competing with COD. They should have started with a good amount of content. This game last hope is season 2. I see this game gone after season 2.
I think they should possibly do a big update giving more content than planned because the current roadmap is probably too little too late...also the whole cod audience they catered to in the first place are very fickle, my only reason for wanting to appeal to that crowd is possibly bc cod players buy a bunch of skins, but I think the game needed to be more fully fleshed out in order to make the money they wanted...even the cod audience plays the mp for like 3 months and is otherwise playing warzone or at least that's how it seems, the last couple titles cared more about warzone than mp
Only people calling it a cod killer was cod haters. They just said they wouldn't have sbmm but never tried to actually take out cod. That would be Ludacris
@@dartlinfps I agree. That's sad for XD.
@PrinceDyspo cod hater or not they were competing with COD. That's their downfall. BF, medal of.honor and titan fall all fail due to lack of content. BF had bugs up A**.
Battlefield is honestly the most in shambles franchise right now considering the long established foothold, talk about dropping the ball
XDefiant just is flat out boring.
This game is just bad, accept it. It is very bad, in terms of everything, graphics, audio, net code, maps...etc. It is a bad game, and was always destined to fail.
lol thats a bit harsh, I don't think it's bad it just has a lot of untapped potential
You play cod????
@ChevyRedneckGFX I haven't played Cod since 2019, I tried MW3 when it came to gamepass, but I unistalled because I didn't like it. Also, if someone doesn't like Xdefiant, it does not mean he is a cod fanboy. I think this is one of the reasons that makes me want this game to fail, because the xdefiant community is a bunch of fanatics who think that Ubisoft is the prophet who is going to save them from Cod and activision, and will insult you and accuse you of being a cod fanboy if you criticize anything about the game on reddit or twitter. They just can't accept that the game they believed in is just a bad game in literally every aspect.
