The Battle Royale That Came Too Late? - What Happened To Hyper Scape
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 ноя 2020
- After coming out with an ambitious marketing campaign, Hyper Scape, Ubisoft's entry into the battle genre, appeared to have the potential for greatness.
However, fast forward a few months and you'll find that the game has lost many of its players and only pulls in a couple hundred viewers on Twitch.
Did the game come out too late into a saturated market or perhaps it was the developers who dropped the ball? In today's video, we will dive into Hyper Scape and take a look at some of the reasons behind the fall of Ubisoft's attempt at a battle royale.

Do you play BR games? If so which ones?
minecraft hunger games
Apex
Theres one called Spellbreak which I absolutely adore, but it just didnt take off for some reason.
not really only apex and fortnite if my cousin asks me to play. i dont like fortnite though not as good as it used to be now it is extremely rng.
Minecraft Hunger Games and Apex
It’s a fun game but the timing was shit. Couldn’t convince most my friends to even try it.
You have shit friends like i do. My friend talk shit about the game even tho they never even tried it
@@strangecousinwst my friend keeps sayi g it's weird but he cant explain it, I think it's cause it's so different to the slow play styles that people have developed over the past few years
@@ther3dwizard fr I really enjoyed hyperscape it was so fast paced but my friends were struggling
Same
Also sad stuff happened on twitch at the same time which was another example of bad timing
The game didnt release on consoles till a while after the streamers were playing it. So why would people watch a game they cannot play. By the time it came to console the hype was gone.
most people are on pc
@@TheSlayerAmazing most gamers are on console
@@kiefydoinks no, more people are on pc due to consoles usually being too expensive in many regions
@@TheSlayerAmazing consoles being too expensive? There are pcs that cost thousands
@@egg6838 yeah there are, and there are also pcs far cheaper then consoles.
When the health regen is so long that you thought they removed it
Health regen?
I guess i didn't notice that
Thats because everybody likes to run and hide as soon as they get shot lol
Honestly when i played it the movement was fun but the fights felt super draged out i couldn't finish anyone of i would rather a br like apex if i wanted face pace movement.
Bruh the biggest problem was the ttk u had to hit a million shots just to kill 1 person so killing a team solo was impossible
I always thought Hyperscape would have served better as an arcade style arena shooter. It’s fast paced action and weapon variety could have made for some great simple tdm gameplay.
Honestly yeah. I would come back if they added a tdm I love the movement in the game. Nice mix of Blops 3 and Titanfall
@@jerardocontreras1572 there’s a tdm out today
@@Rapidcanvas YOOOOO
@@Rapidcanvas fr?
Arena shooters aren't succesful anymore
I played Hyper Scape first day. It was fun for a few hours but you could not grind the game. It was good for awhile but gets stale VERY quickly.
@D.K factual
Not to me. It was actually the first br that made me want to grind it solo all day.
Thats most battle royals. Only reason why Apex is still doing so well, the legends really add a lot of diversity to each match so the game is always different.
@D.K most of the big ones that's come out. Tried pubg, hated it. Played fortnite till season 4. Apex until season 2 though I've recently gotten back into it. Realm royale, modern warfare, cuisine royale, Darwin project, hunt showdown (if you want to consider that a br), elysium, the cycle. That's all I can remember off the top of my head but playing solo generally gives me a bit too much anxiety to play for long but hyperscape just gave me the tdm feeling like I can just jump in and have mindless nonstop action/fun
same
I thought I was on the pulse with modern games but this is literally the first time I have ever heard of this game
Don't blame ya it wasn't that good
This game died soon after release
@@ReaperKing10100 it ain't dead to me
@@TylerAllanPoe fanboy spotted
@@ReaperKing10100 he literally said FOR me he said IT aint dead for me how is that being a fan boy smh
If this game was released 2 years ago, this would have honestly killed all other BRs except fortnite.
Because they learned from previous br games...
Same logic, If I go back 2 years ago I will be rich as fuck
No it wouldn't have. This Quake type mid air shooting combat is very niche. Maybe it wouldve survived a bit longer but in the end it would suffer from the same fate. The game is just too hard for casual players
The gunplay is abysmal imo, wouldn’t have played it 1 month after
@@MAlru005 it feels so bad.
the movement is fast but it takes ages to kill

the game's map looks exactly the same everywhere and there are no items, only abilities. it came out late but perhaps it was too early for succession as well
Do you not see how big the map is? That isn't enough for you?
@@comedial6829 map size is irrelevant when the map is the same everywhere
@@comedial6829 If a map is big but non of the areas have any distinct feature it's just a big boring city scape. It's the reason why most open world games are bad.

@@naoko3749 laughs in death stranding
In my opinion, Hyperscape missed a huge mark by not implementing wall-running in the first place. You're telling me that you have a fast-paced urban BR with a big emphasis on movement and verticality, and you're not gonna give your players any other movement options other than running on the ground and jumping? Yeah sure, alright, cya later I'm going back to Apex
apex comes from the titanfall series and in my opinion the movement in titanfall along with the gunplay is much better then apex also respawn in apex when every character has a jump kit removed wall running and double jumping when canonically all of the apex legends should be able to do it.
@@nadataprosper2692 eh, not to be a dick or anything but I'd like to see Gibraltar try to wallrun! Honestly though, yes I agree with you that overall, Titanfall 2 is a much more fun experience than Apex. However, Apex can feel much more rewarding at times and in my sense, isn't something you should just brush off as a Sub-Par Titanfall entry (as I've seen many people in the Titanfall community do). I just think Apex is the superior game in the current BR we have available (although I've yet to try Warzone)
@@gobul-glargz8953 wardrobe, while really fun and has loads of content, always has a bloody annoying meta or is glitched

@@waynicliz it's 69 gb on xbox one, uninstalling a single CoD should be enough and it's worth it, don't know on pc and ps, but regardless, it's a fun game
In my opinion, the MAIN issue i found was the TTK, the game feels like a pillows fight, add the high mobility, guns feel SO bad
To be fair, the game is alot closer to an arena shooter than a FPS
@@robertobarela293 arena shooter weapons tend to feel powerful as f*ck though.
Have you actually tried to go into the training mode and shoot the bots to see how fast they die? The TTK isn't slow at all, just accept the fact that you're missing your shots
@@SnappySanad it is much slower, it might not feel like that against still targets but when everyone is flying and moving so fast, slow TTK feels painful
@@SnappySanad Dude it's a game where people fucking fly across the map, of course he isn't going to be hitting the majority of shots.
I actually really liked hyperscape because of the movement.
Edit:Thx for likes and I do play titan fall and Apex
Yeah it was like Titanfall 2
@@stazmo957 yea Titanfall 2 was one of my favorite games
It really wasn’t it lacked in anything advanced or smooth feeling it just felt like awful apex if you ask me
@@leakyyo0554 Same
yeah my main problem with the game was that it was a battle royal game. I think i would have a lot more fun if it was more of a team deathmatch style game where you get to respawn quickly and keep playing
I agree that it came too late, it was cool when it first came out but there were so many other battle royales that were out at the time it just couldn’t compete this was a new kind of battle Royale though I don’t understand why it didn’t blow up more
Battle Royale arent that fun and popular anymore. Idk why developers still create battle royale.
@@yuno6097 you gotta play with friends in battle royales nowadays to have fun otherwise you’re just playing competitive
@@guardian4703 so true
@@yuno6097 not true BR is still by far the most popular genre of gaming.
@@jimsedanski8899 Well yeah its popular but theres just so many that it gets degrading.
In addition to there being an already oversaturated market, they've made bad decisions in the case of weapon balancing by making easy to use weapons overly strong, and they've been slow on bug fixes that the game in its infancy needed to be fixed. Many early players like myself found ourselves having to restart the game over and over after we ran into various bugs hindering us from playing the game. As the population dwindled and Ubisoft made one bad decision after another, even its biggest supporters and diehard fanbase began to leave. Nowadays it's a good day if you get 20+ people in a lobby.
It's a shame what this game really could've been.
That's literally ubisoft being ubisoft. Good ideas horrible application
im one of the players that got the crash on launch bug when hyperscape came out, and It just didnt get fixed fast enough to warrant staying in my library when other games were coming out that i wanted to play

Just drop the BR genre and add arcade game modes like tdm, capture the flag and so on. There are not enough titles like that in the market apart from cod and stuff :(
exactly. especially the free ones
That rouge company game still exist lol
I never enjoyed hyperscape because the guns felt extremely unsatisfying.
exactly, you have to shoot someone in the head with a sniper 3 times
It had very "forced" feeling recoil. Unlike fortnite or apex. The guns kinda felt like cod but the recoil doesn't work too well with the hyper-mobility aspect of the game.
Guns did like 3 damage per second lmao. Gunplay was awful. Time to kill was so high it took forever to kill an enemy.
U missed a very important part
It's neither on steam or epic games store on PC,I really can't understand their approach on this decision
That's a shame. I was getting a laptop soon and planning to give it another shot. On console, the controls don't feel comfortable
@@loppyhero7196 its on epic games now
@@rahulnamboodiri6660 Thanks, I'll check it out
I started playing right when the beta was released, and honestly it was practically love at first sight. I love fast paced games with tons of mobility, this game was basically perfect for me. A lot of people complained about the TTK (which was completely understandable, I could consistently get 10+ kills in all the BRs I've played before but I was struggling to get more than 1 kill on the first day), but for me it's honestly what kept the game fun. Sure it wasn't as rewarding to get tons of kills, but it really makes you feel like you are working hard for every kill. The learning curve is much much higher than any game I've ever played, so you really have to put time into this game before you feel that the TTK is fine and actually healthy for the game, but they don't really do anything to really encourage you to spend that time grinding and improve. The movement abilities and movement mechanics in the game itself felt fluid as well. But honestly, even though playing the game was so fun, the low lobby counts and just overall the game being hard to play for more than an hour or 2, is why I ended up playing less than less. And ever since patch 2.1, I've just stopped completely. The game doesn't feel as good as it did in the beta anymore, which is really unfortunate since I really felt that I found the game for me. I still have some hope so I'll definitely be keeping notifications on for this game, hopefully something changes that'll reignite my love for the game.
I totally feel exactly what u describe dude
Well said man, I thought that people should recognize the game for what it is, otherwise it wouldn't work, which makes the game's uniqueness.
I disagree on the TTK. This is the only BR I have dropped 30 in on Kbd+m. The issue is they tried to patch too often and never rushed things that they never tested.
Try out titanfall 2 if you like fast pase and cool mobility
The movement in this game is what I expected from Apex Legends (since it’s a sequel to Titanfall)
I actually tried apex after playing this because i had no friends to play this game with. And apex felt like i was with fucking crutches, so slow and tedious
Apex is far ahead of this game
@@Lefty1x i also like to sit around inside houses looting crates. makes me feel like a badass
Ya and that comment makes you look like a smart ass not a bad ass
@@vegantoad4889 it's the truth, sometimes i play apex with my friends. I sit around looting houses and then just camp so that i can get top placement.
Its a really funny game
That crown mechanic is actually pretty cool. It's sad that not everyone heard of this game...
installed. played some matches. won a game. never played it again...its was so bad on ps4 cuz the terrible controller settings and no FOV slider, then the whole meta was using that annoying ball and the op ass minigun and the Time to kill (TTK) was so high that you could spends hours just to kill someone.
"What happend to ubisofts hypserscape?"
Ubisoft.
Yes sir
Not really Ubisoft did everything to save it.
Western just like Activision garbage games more maybe it's bias
I loved hyperscape. To this day it’s the only BR where I was able to beat someone with a gun with nothing but a stick
That happens in Apex as well. I have 15-20 melee kills in the game.
*Warzone kali sticks intensifies*
@@memelordozai8553 Yeah but in apex that only happens when they're shit
@D.K exactly
@@DsgSleazy nah ive beat someone with a heirloom its more likely because your faster when holstering and no one expects a melee fight out of the blue

This one is really good.. You're explaining the situation very well :)
Thx for that =)
Glad you like them!
I love hyperscape but I absolutely hate the meta right now.
Exactly why I stopped playing
Dragonfly woo
This game has potential. With that city scape. They can make the buildings move like the movie Inception. That might be cooler than Apex Legend.
before they do that they need to switch up the buildings. they look nice but god damn they all look the same
This game could never be cooler than Apex, just saying
@@KC_50 yeah apex is imo one of the best if not the best battle royale.
actually playing it rn
Your reaching with your comment has no way will be better then apex
It's already 10 times cooler then apex
Imagine overwatch as a battle royale
one sided or shitty
@Miles Hegarty manka ham 😂
That's basically apex with stronger abilities.
Imagine Apex as a team based shooter
I can, it's called Middle Eastern servers on PS4
hey, akshon could you do a video on population: one its an interesting take on the BR genre as it's in VR and only has 15 players + its paced and has climbing and flying, this makes it fun to enjoy because all you need to do to get the high ground is swim up and t pose to fly.
I still play this. I'm honestly just hanging on hoping its going to be the same situation as siege or for honor.
same, plus i really enjoy it so much
Not even close lol
havent heard of this game before now but as a fan of movement shooters, this looks dope. i hope it stays alive
It is fun but lobbies are only about 1/4 full
@@plank2855 cross play is out bro and u can have way more people in your loby
Wow the production quality of this video is so high! well done
Faster and faster pace is also a trait of arena FPS (AFPS), which is considered to be dead after BR games began to gain popularity. Now BR is converging into having AFPS traits. Both HS and Apex are rumored (datamine) to get deathmatch modes. It's also easier to create bots for HS (potentially onboard new players and reduce matchmaking time) than Apex due to lower demands for teamwork and gamesense compared to aim and movement in HS.
HyperScape health regen change sounds like Apex's change to nerf all shields, it was hated and was reversed mid-season.
After learning about it, SBMM is needed, and one problem in SBMM in Apex is that top-tier players (Master/Pred) are matched to average players because there can't be 60 top-tier players in the queue at same time due to their rarity.
At least people are complaining about aim assist rather than anti-cheat.
Demi-regret, opt-ing for Premium BP S1, when I lost my drive after Tier 34/100.
Had a lot of fun, tried getting friends into it, yet no budge. Hope it resurges some day. I'll have plenty of premium currency to put into it.
But, I gotta remember what I loved about it
Streamlined weapons and Ammo, swift movement, the urban evironment, and the upgrade of weapon system. It made me break into FPS BRs.
I always wondered what happened to Hyperscape. It was so fun, even though I was bad at it, I loved it
I tried playing it and got curb stomped
Nearly everyone I fought against had perfect aim and seemingly killed me in a few shots despite the TTK being supposedly "High"
idk why people say the TTK is high every gun is op and some require no aim to hit every shot
@@joltaikv2340 the gins wheel like pea shooters when you use them and most players can’t land every shot so while technically the TTK is low for most players it’s high
@@joltaikv2340 it requires aim. There's just no randoms spread like every other games has which is good.
The ripper and the hex are just the best cause the can constantly fire and keep you from getting health back
It’s sad that Nothing came out of hyper scape in the end
Yea it was so much hyped
I played it one time and that was that it takes way to long to kill,everyone rocked the minigun it was to boring (for me at least)
I love the use of Dream (NERO/ZHU) throughout! Keep up the quality. I love learning about eSports from this channel!
I played hyperscape and let me say something.
If you add high mobility with really long kill times and evasive powerups, It becomes an extremely frustrating and endless parkour to kill anyone.
As someone who doesn't play battle royale games, this game looks like I'd actually really enjoy it. Fluid movement is one of my favorite things in games, and all of it looks like a lot of fun. Might try it out if the player base starts to grow again
The player base is enough for you to play. This is the mentality that I hate. The player base is low because people don’t play the game because of other people are not playing the game. One of the dumbest reasons for not trying out a FREE game.
Play Apex instead.
@@Beetlemeyer no thanks, I m not playing that shell of a game full of shitty mtx, barely has any gameplay anyways. This game deserves apex’s numbers.
@@Krishantion apex is a great game. But I guess it isn’t for everyone.
@@drphil4207 I am a titanfall 2 veteran and I m lvl 97 in apex. It is not that it is not for everybody, it is that there are seriously better things to play, and hyperscape is one of them. I hate what apex has become.
Problems: poor marketing (I've only seen the game once through my feed),
somewhat ok optimizations,
No servers beyond US an NA at launch (I live in South America),
Launched shortly after Valorant (high skill ceiling, so game fatigue takes way longer to happen)
Gunplay felt stiff.
Yup this. You have to nail one or two things right or do one thing really good to be able to compete with the other BRs. Apex got fun movement and gunplay. Fortnite's building mechanic has insane skill ceiling. PUBG is a bit dated but it has a dedicated playerbase because it's one of the first BR's to blow up. You would think a futuristic shooter would be really cool but Hyperscape just feels bland in general.
Hyper Scape was fun, and I enjoyed it. Played during the open beta and throughout season 1. But lately I can’t even find a match (in OCE). I haven’t been able to try out the recent patches so I don’t even know if it’ll still be something I want to play.
I actually loved Hyperscape whenever i played it. The only issue for me was getting my friends to play it. I was a top 5000 player on console and my friends stuck to there games which i inevitably fell back to.
Hyperscape needs a more interesting scenery. Give it a little more colour, shapes and terrain texture.
It's basically just blue and black with a little red here and there
Seriously
Warzone and PUBG looks like they are made in 1990
It was fun but sometimes it felt like fights lasted an eternity
As a person in the console community of the game we still get alot of people in our lobbys there's cross-platform with ps4/xbox but the pc lobbys are dead like 3 people squad dead but I don't know how much pc lobbys get in solos but in squads they average like 3/5 :(
The December patch as of the time of writing has worked really well to increase lobby size. Playing after midnight would see lobby size drop drastically, but it seems like a major surge has happened thanks to the new update. Hopefully 2021 will be even better.
I played hyperscape for about a month after the closed beta came out in summer and i have to say it was one of the best br experiences ive had in basically any br game. sad to see it go. Maybe they could bring it back because they've done things like this with games like r6 but idk my hopes arent high
I still LOVE Hyper Scape I just wish it got the recognition it had at the beginning of its release because the devs genuinely care about the health of the game, unlike SOME game devs *AHEM* Apex *AHEM*. I seriously think Hyper Scape still has SOOOOO much potential and wish the devs tapped into that earlier so players didn't fall away so quickly. Such a shame. Still fun though, and that's all that matters at the end of the day.
Kind weird that hyperscape had some really controversial updates that made alot of people leave tho
The apex devs really care about the game, they're really active in the apex subreddit and talk with the people to try to fix problems, they biggest problem IMO is that they weren't ready to work from home, actually the game health get a hard punch in the start of pandemic, probably never thought in something like that, but fortnite actually did it pretty well.
Apex dev's probably care more about the community than most game devs. Their one of the few ones constantly active in discord/sub reddit. Granted their updates are insanely slow doesn't mean they don't listen and they can only do what daddy EA allows them to do and WHEN EA says so.
Dude the apex devs are far better than the hyperscape devs. They actually have Q and A’s almost every week and they recently apologized about all of the mistakes they’ve done in the past few months. They’re actually trying to make the game better. The hyperscape devs are good too, but some updates that they’ve put out are concerning.
I knew that I recognized the background music in the intro but was unsure whether it was gesaffelstein or zhu. It's dreams by ZHU if anyone is looking for it
i remember i played that day 1 on console but the skill gap is so big that i just gave up
I played it. Gameplay felt very plasticy, ttk was weird, and the art direction was quite generic and exhausting to look at. Not everything is to do with timing
Me and my friends played like 2 games and promptly forgot about it
I like the direction of your videos and appreciate you trying to tell the stories so thank you for that. Really think you are off-base on the very start of this video with the 'ever since Fortnite' statement though. That game was in development for YEARS and was setup to be a coop survival game. The Battle Royale concept wasn't even a thought for Epic until one of their Unreal engine licensees started making headway with a BR title which was PUBG. Just think it's in poor taste not to give that game credit for creating the genre. It was hitting 3,000,000 concurrent players on Steam before Fortnite exploded. GL with future vids, I really do like the direction of your channel like I said!
I play a lot of BR games with my friends who play games casually, what killed this one for me was no crossplay
They could’ve been making Splinter Cell but they made this instead
Exactly wtf, splinter cell is theeeee game bro
Since it’s release I have thought Hyperscape is the best br I’ve ever played by far, I hope it sticks around
Play apex legends. It's the hardest battle royale by far but is the best for gunfights and has the best movement in any BR without being op or some stupid double jump/wall running game
@@dirtmucher fps games with double jump and wall running are amazing it's what made Apex's grandpa; Titanfall so good
I really loved hyperscape , but my biggest issue is br. They really should have tried a new modus, or stay with basic arena shooter modus.
Keep up your great work
July 2nd is the unfortunate news to the death of Reckful too. Literally watching Just9n play a few game but when the news is out, he stop streaming😔
When I played it like a couple months ago on Xbox, it was just horribly balanced and not fun at all. Sure the gameplay was interesting but you rarely could do anything before three teams all with Ball descend on you
Uhh ball was never good. Only on console because people couldn’t aim
@@jglarpo i play on console and i have never been killed by someone who ran ball
Lmao the ball was always the worst hack
I feel like the controls on console such as high sensitivity threw off alot of players expecting something more like pubg than quake
Yeah it feels ubisoft just directly ported from pc they updated the sensitivity now and it feels better but probably not good enough to save the game
They really should've just made it a arena shooter like quake with br on the side but I'm a quake fan so I'll admit my bias
Too many games now are making the mistake of overhyping a non complete game and then it doesn’t meet expectations immediately, like fall guys.
What killed fall guys was the fact it wasn’t on Xbox. I think it was on pc I may be wrong
I played this game for so long. Grinded it and got good. The main problem with it was a huge skill gap and hackers. Along with this with a low player base caused the developers to put consoles players against pc players which significantly widened the skill gap further
"this feature was almost identical to the darwin project"
pain
I loved HyperScape!
"loved" ...say's it all.
Another banger video from Akshon
As someone who has always loved super fast paced shooters with high mobility (Doom, Quake, Titanfall) this game has always looked super fun, but I never played it much solely because of crossplay not being a thing. I play on PC and all my friends play on different consoles.
I honestly didn't even know Hyper Scale was out
I feel like I’m the only one playing it all the time recently
I remember I was playing this almost daily. I had bought a pack and the battlepass. One day I got on and couldn't even get a match lol it was so sad
The first few days this game released on console there were huge amount of log in errors, "Orchid" and other error names. I'm certain a large amount of people downloaded the game, couldn't get in, and simply forgot about it. No video ever mentions this.
A Tree has approved of this video.

Why am I getting french advertisement on this, lol?
RUclips algorithm magic
Yeah, I get German as well...
I'd advise adblock, but this is Akshon Esports. These guys deserve the support.
You shouldn't be unless you're using a VPN
@@zilliq Nah, I just live in germany right now, no reason to give me german ads though.
this game was so fun on launch and they made changes on what mate hyperscape different. Long kill times. I fucking loved the fast paste and long kill times. Not getting sniped in 1 shot, not getting flanked and dying in 3 seconds. With more health you can change these situations with skill. Then they took it away and everyone left. it makes sense
Honestly I really loved the game, and was spending more time there then Apex. Then they decided to get rid of Solos and they lost me.
Sometimes I don't want to play with a teammate who quits when they're downed.
I really do hope they can fix all the issues.
"Hyper Late"
😂
I Forgot HyperScape Still Existed.
I love this game, and I still play it especially after they added the TDM game mode idk what is it but i do have fun when playing.
I remember playing it when it first came out then playing it again about 6 or 7 months ago and there were only 22 people in the game I joined.
Hyper scape did the battle royale genre perfectly, and fixed so many problems other battle royales couldn't solve. I wish it did better for how much of a good game it is.
The stats disagree.
That game died quick AF
I can see how the health regen can be annoying since 5 and 15 is a lot of time, but at the same time it was annoying (for me and friends) because we would try to kill people and we couldn't finish off people because of two things the guns wouldn't do enough damage to kill them and the regen kept saving them even tho I 1v3 i couldn't fully kill them cause of that stuff.
Gameplaywise Hyper Scape is the game I was always looking for.
Fast pace. low luck factor. map and lobby size are perfect. Screw realism. TTK allows some interaction while fight, chances for comebacks.
Unfortunately, at least here in europe, the damn lobbies don't fill. Also the the huge skill differences givin new players a horrible start in the game.
SBMM could fix that, but would make the low player count situation even worse. So we need that crossplay. but the balancing...
I love the gameplay, but I can't enjoy the game anymore.
Not sure if Ubisoft gon be able to fix, but I hope so alot
Great video, TY
Hmmm I'm starting to see a pattern...
Valorant uses Twitch for Advertisment, and then after launch its playerbase decreases.
Hyperscape uses Twitch for Advertisment, and then after launch its playerbase decreases.
Not gonna lie I'm starting to think Twitch is not a good way to advertise your game. At least for the Key drop thingy's.
Has nothing to do with Twitch. The problem stems from people in general. The numbers are high early on because everyone is watching their favorite streamer hype up the game and make it seem better than it is. Once the game is officially released everyone notices the flaws and not everything said was true so majority of the people leave. Valorant doesn't fit in this though because Valorant still has insane player numbers, just not viewership numbers because it's simply not a fun game to watch at all but it's extremely fun/satisfying to play and master.
@@CrustedPork this comment is a certified hood classic
This game is what apax legends should have been...
what do you mean?
@@HobbsterTheLobster23 the way I think of apax legends as titanfall without the things that made titanfall fun. Hyper scape has those things. Obviously it doesn’t have titans, but the movement is so fluid and fast paced. It reminds me of titanfall.
That's a lie lol
I remember getting it when it came out, haven't touched it since... the game was some what fun but it gets too crazy, the game could be better tbh, it has potential. I wonder if anything has changed since then, I might try it out again and see
This channel definitely deserves a ton more subscribers
Agreed. I have no fucking clue why some videos struggle on this channel,I see it as theScore Esports but without annoying people talking
I loved this game movement and kills were so satisfying. Too bad they blew it.
i think that hyperscape could be a great cod style game
They should have waited until the console version was complete and then released it alongside the pc one. The only game my friends and I played over the summer was warzone, so not only was the release timing of hyperscape bad, but even if I wanted to play, I would have to do it alone since all my friends are on console.
The solution is way easier: people tried it because it has lot of arena shooter mechanics, and every old school UT/Quake knows that’s there an unfilled void in the genre that can really bring big numbers, but publishers as usual want to follow the trends thinking it means easy money and big playerbase. In conclusion: Hyperscape as an elaborated, community supported and twitch powered arena shooter would’ve been top notch.
too bad not everyone can play hard games. high movement mechanics FPS game is destinied to die in 2020.
Games that require skill are destined to die..
People like cod and apex because you spend more time looting and riding around in cars then shooting, also 2020 is the year of low effort gamers, people just wanna play among us or fall guys
@@strangecousinwst Plus developers care about controller player and cross-platform...... Disaster in game design
The problem is that people are just too bad and have huge egos.
So they uninstall the game after learning that you can't spend 90% of the match looting and after realizing they cant aim for shit and they just get booped everygame.
The sensitivity was way to high on release mate thankfully they released an update fixing the issue from there people can adjust to their preferences i had a lobby with 40 people compared to 13 before the game has a long way to go
@@KoKo-ry1xs yeah I can't disagree with you there I'm leaving it too unfortunately
For me, with Windows 8.1: The game keep crashing until september; by then, the player counts drop lower than the amount I would get in Apex, so I uninstalled it last month.
If the game didn't crash just from picking up a weapon, I may have keep playing it. Who knows how many other people have the same issue?
if someone was able to find the music in the intro i think it s called Prólogo gods and monsters
I'll never understand the people that still play PubG. It feels like a student project, super janky, stiff, bland, ugly as shit, clunky. I get it was one of the original ones the made the genre blow up, but rust came before hand, along with others, so it's not the original. It just feels sooooooo....boooooorrrriinnnggg. It still feels like a beta and I have to imagine the only people that still play just have too much invested in it.
Nice analysis, but I think it focuses too much on one thing that is in my opinion way overblown out of proportion.
The official release of the game was on August 11, a month after its beta. While in July, it had some good numbers, the end of July saw an unlikely competitor that would become a phenomenon: Fall Guys. That game absolutely destroyed the charts in August when it was released - its concept was way different that traditional BRs and all streamers went on board for this funny and colorful beanfest. And the PlayStation Plus free offer gave Fall Guys a huge surge in players and popularity. Note that Fall Guys doesn't have cross-play yet. Meanwhile Hyper Scape was just "another BR game". I think its concept and gameplay was too close to Apex, and it was hard to get a huge market share when there's 4 BRs already in place (Fortnite, Warzone, Apex, PUBG).
Hyper Scape never gave birth to a figure that would unite a community around the game and around him, most big streamers got their check, and never went back on the game again. Same thing for RUclipsrs - as they saw the low numbers on the content they produced on Hyper Scape, they moved on to something more valuable. It's really hard to stop a downward spiral. Hyper Scape had numbers similar to big single-player games: a huge surge at launch, then streamers move on to other stuff when they're done with it. Meanwhile, games like Among Us, with near infinite replayability due to the social gameplay, have completely blown and are going to be here for quite a long time.
Note that most games that work on Twitch are games that don't tell the whole story through one POV, give the sensation of high stakes, and bring laughs, tension and drama. Now doing Top 1s in BR is no longer enough - it has to involve more things.
Also actually, the fast-paced nature of the game was detrimental to a large part of the early playerbase - when it's too hard to kill a target, many players simply drop out and never return, because the game is too difficult for them. Early feedback also talked about "fights going on forever" as the TTK was very high and you had to land a lot of shots on your target to kill it - add that the fast health regen and fast movement, and you leave most of the players with a steep skill curve that they won't be able to overcome. As a result, they go back on what they liked, eg. other BR games.
We can't deny that Hyper Scape came too late, with a dull package, and to be honest I don't think they'll be able to turn things around like they did with Rainbow Six or For Honor in a smaller extent. Implementing TDM in that game is also facing a truth - the game fails to keep a big enough playerbase to make BR interesting. Some server regions are empty during low hours. However some people that could seek a free, fast-paced FPS with a simple TDM mode can be satisfied. But they'll have to bring new and attractive stuff to the table to keep a healthy playerbase, otherwise the game won't even go to Year 2.
However I rediscovered this game after getting weary of other games and I really enjoyed it so far. Balancing decisions are of course always questionable but I'm part of a wave of players that seek something refreshing and that didn't play the game in its early days.
i had an idea for improving aim asists in these games. You can just make it do less damage if aim asist is on
Hyper Scape sounds like my dream Battle Royale. I hope it comes out on Steam and fixes the Health Regen.
