As the Lead Level Designer on XDefiant for the past 2.5 years (I was also a Senior Level Designer on the project from the beginning), I want to thank BlameTruth and the community for all the support/love you have shown the game but more importantly the maps team. Our group was spread out across the world (Osaka Japan, Saguenay Canada, Annecy France, and of course the SFStudio), but we all came together as a cohesive unit to create, in my opinion, some very fun and diverse maps. I want you all to know, we did listen to your feedback (critical and praise) and took that to heart with each map we made. Again, thank you all.
Thanks for an enjoyable arena shooter that's genre has been drowned by COD. This game is on par with the best COD games and better than every post 19 crap they've released. I hope it doesn't go. Thank you
@@TBrettzky13 I hate to say it but I do agree with you. CoD used to be 1 of my favorite 1st person shooters just disappointing CoD went down hill. Xdefiant is lot better but it needs a little work on though but idk if they fixed those issues or not. I’ve heard they are great listening to the community though
I always loved cod zombies now I feel like it be better just to make my own. I really hope xdef comes back better then ever, I hope when i release my game it takes off better then cod did with zombies. Good games has gotten hard to come by.
@phillwop lol! Are you stupid? They did have a choice. The devs worked for UbiShit. They could just like Activision devs and shit on the customers cause ir’s UbiShit after all but devs loved what they did. You deserve to be shit on.lol!
dude, I usually turn off the main menu music and when I booted up the game it reset my audio settings and I was in the middle of turning off the main menu music when I stopped and just had to listen to it, it sounds so good
All I’ve done is listen to that song at the beginning and it legit gave me goosebumps… I haven’t had a single video game song do that since hearing the Halo 2 menu load up at 12:30am release night… Incredible work
You can really tell the devs had alot of heart/passion for this game, vs the Ai slop we've been getting from CoD lately. I hope Xdefiant continues. If not hopefully the next Battlefield will be a return to form next year.
What I got out of this is how much season passes fuck with players. Look at how much content they had ready, but were forced to hold back because of this "seasons" garbage
This should be talked about more. It's like people forgot about the complaints about paid DLC back on the day, now it's in the form of season passes but it's way worse.
I do think larger content drops have more value. But I also know people would complain if they released content less often but more at a time. Sad reality of the live service market.
So stupid that they're shutting it down. It makes no sense that new people can't start playing the game now. This content is fantastic. I really hope they bring it back.
When you were walking through the map with that middle section that's in the sky through a portal or something, you can just see the awe you're experiencing with your character movement. COD can never.
when you are relaxed, you actually sound like a chill dude straight up. I do have the game luckily, just haven't gotten around to playing a lot of it since im quite busy. But I will start playing again.
3:40 Now THAT RIGHT THERE does NOT sound like a script made by ChatGPT! It sounds like it was actually written by an actual human soul and with genuine love for their supporters. God bless the XDefiant team for their hard work.
This is an early Christmas gift! Also, the last time you can get max character skin is vanguard. I maxed out everything that was free. I'm blown away, with the level of detail and brilliance the Xdefiant team had. With this drop, wish it could've lasted longer.
I dont care how much shit I get or how hopeless it seems, im not gonna stop using my voice about wanting this game back. Until Ubisoft blocks me im gonna keep tagging them in every tweet. #savexdefiant
@adad87821 The petition went up almost 1k sigs since yesterday. As gamers, we've proven we can be a vocal force to be reckoned with. CoD players should have XDs back cause it'll really pressure Activison to give the players a better experience...like upgraded servers finally. They deserve it for how loyal they have been.
It's truly sad to see a competent dev team put so much passion and effort into a project, only for the top dogs to let them down. If only Activision allowed their dev teams to actually put out the CoD game they had the vision for.
LOL, competent? Really? The whole reason why this game failed to begin with was that the game was broken at launch and it never got fixed. They use a business model based on microtransactions and don't put any in the game and those that are there, are so ugly no one even bought them. Competent my ass. It's too bad too, I liked the idea behind this game and all but let's be real man. I wanted it to be good and to succeed but putting our heads in the sand won't change the facts.
@@MrJasonGallant You are absolutely correct. Reading the comment section here is like going to a funeral service for a person noone liked. Everyone talks about how good a guy he was, and noone brings up the fact he was really a D-bag 95% of the time.
@@noahblevins9569 hahaha, I love that analogy. I mean I get it though man, this game still had a fanbase nonetheless, but to pretend like this wasn't at the very least partially the developers' fault (if not almost totally) is being delusional.
@@MrJasonGallant Yeah. If they were able to stockpile 5 seasons worth of content, they could have threw in a few bones along the way to retain players. They screwed up time and time again, and people are pretending none of that happened. The game was poorly managed, and the netcode issues went on for far too long. It doesnt even matter who is at fault there. A FPS that doesnt count your shots is a bad game.
@@noahblevins9569 That's for sure, I had deleted that part of my comment because I wasn't sure how it sounded. I guess I shouldn't have. But yeah, I have no idea what they were thinking. Oh and let's not forget how expensive the microtransactions were! I understand the game is free, but if you're going to make them that expensive, they better be good.
Such a shame, this is gaming 9/11. Will not be playing any arcade 6v6 shooters unless this comes back. Playing games like cod with its terrible matchmaking will only make u go crazy, save yourself.
Thats sad bro after they have done all of this? I mean come on they should atleast respect what the devs put into the game and cut the support without the server shutdown so we can admire this game even after the support cut off
They're only doing this "update" because the game is finished. They should've added some of these things a lot sooner. Half a year later and they added 2 factions. I do think it's stupid they are preventing new people from downloading it.
I remember being the only person out of my friend group to play this.. then I had one friend join me and we had fun playing it, he stopped playing then eventually I stopped playing as well BUT during that time it was the best time I’ve had playing an fps since BO4.. competition in gaming is good, losing this sucks
I’m going to be honest, the only reason I haven’t played Xdefiant is because I moved to college and couldn’t bring my console. I’m glad to play it at least a little bit more before it shuts down, all though hopefully not for good. Thank you Mark Ruben and the rest of the team that worked on this game it was honestly the best experience I have had with a fps since my first time playing call of duty, with cod ghosts.
If they would of dropped after cod, they'd be alive rn. If siege shuts down then you know ubisoft is hurting. My theory, the cod higher ups already don't fw aches, and mark was apart of them at one point? Don't you think activision pulled strings behind the scenes to get this game shut down? Just a thought.
Activision didnt need to try to pull any strings. XD had a barebones launch plagued by some very serious issues that went unresolved for far too long. They killed themselves.
I just pray that XDefiant does comeback online and very soon after the Ubiwoke sale is finalised as the dev team did an amazing job with this game and imo deserves to be kept alive, more so than CoD
This is how live service games should be! Listening to the community will always pay off. It really sucks that Ubisoft decided to cut the line on XDefient. There's so much stuff that was planned to be added later along the line that will never see the light of day. Too bad we won't see it...
I got a mind blowing idea for game companies. Release the game with fun content like this from the start of the game… wow who would’ve thought we just want something fun to play & come back to
Yesterday after the update my lobby was full of players above level 100 when usually there are maybe 4-6. Love it how people are still supporting xdefiant. ❤
Feels like the devs are trying to show off the game to possibly have the ip sold off to another company. The game only got pulled because Ubisoft stock is in the toilet rn
BT i am an OG like yourself started with halo 2 got to enjoy the golden years of gaming (COD 4, Halo3, Gears of war.) stopped playing multiplayer games after 2019 COD. i had over 3 W/L and stayed around a 2 K/D. Your vids got me on xdefiant! i got 2 of my buddys to play with me. We all were over level 150 in xdefiant we all loved this game. when they had 3v3"s i went on a 37 game winstreak it was so much fun i am so bummed xdefiant is shutting down honestly is a tragedy for multiplayer games.
Long term "The Division" player here. Red Storm dealt with the PvP in that game. Really good team. What made these developers different, is that once a week they would appear on a live stream and answer FAQs, take feedback and give regular updates on any fixes/balance updates and "the state of the game" (they called the show that). The community engagement was always a strong point of theirs. Cleary a team that genuinely cares about their game, and their community. These devs deserved better than this it has to he said....
Don't know how to take Ubisoft...I think they are just incompetent honestly...I mean seriously if they would have just dropped xdefiant 1 month or 2 earlier we would be having a different conversation...cod was dead and they waited until the release of bo6 which let's be real cod games always feel good in the betas and zombies saved bo6...then ubisoft decides to abandoned xdefiant but not until bo6 gets caught red handed fucking everybody...it's almost like Activision caught on and bribed ubisoft into shutting this game down...I have nothing to back that theory up but it's pretty weird how this has all played out...
Love how you mentioned Halo 3 and in regards to that I haven't liked another shooter as much since like I do with XD. I went so far as to modify my controller for XD (hair triggers), something I haven't done since Halo 3.
i saw a lot of people in this comment section talk about "xdefiant being shut down coz its bad", the game isnt shutting down because its bad, its shutting down because ubisoft has no more money since every game they released recently has been a huge failure, ubisoft is predicted to go banckrupt by end of 2025 by market expert... thats why they are shutting games down
This drop hit hard. The maps, vision and direction are so impressive and amazing. Very player-centric. I hope that somewhere down the line it sees a resurrection.
It actually makes no sense why they've kept all this content back then when Ubisoft drops the game it's all released? Where was even a fraction of this content when the game was dying?
XDefiant dropped season 3 and also gave us random bits and pieces of finished content all the way through season 8... And there's actually more!? Be sure to watch til the end for the cliffhanger. 👀

Well u guys did the most amazing job ever .

Long term "The Division" player here. Red Storm dealt with the PvP in that game. Really good team.
What made these developers different, is that once a week they would appear on a live stream and answer FAQs, take feedback and give regular updates on any fixes/balance updates and "the state of the game" (they called the show that). The community engagement was always a strong point of theirs.
Cleary a team that genuinely cares about their game, and their community. These devs deserved better than this it has to he said....
The maps man... the freaking maps. Its absolutely incredible. COD should take notes
Don't know how to take Ubisoft...I think they are just incompetent honestly...I mean seriously if they would have just dropped xdefiant 1 month or 2 earlier we would be having a different conversation...cod was dead and they waited until the release of bo6 which let's be real cod games always feel good in the betas and zombies saved bo6...then ubisoft decides to abandoned xdefiant but not until bo6 gets caught red handed fucking everybody...it's almost like Activision caught on and bribed ubisoft into shutting this game down...I have nothing to back that theory up but it's pretty weird how this has all played out...
Love how you mentioned Halo 3 and in regards to that I haven't liked another shooter as much since like I do with XD. I went so far as to modify my controller for XD (hair triggers), something I haven't done since Halo 3.
Ezio's Family (the AC theme song) is so timeless, love that lil tune lol
I think the game won't shut down. If a new investor takes over Ubisoft I believe the game will simply continue in this state under new management...
That song is what’s known as a swan song
Look up, kublai khan tx - swan song. It's fire. Then listen to everything else they have because swan song is like mid compared to the other stuff.
Those outfits are timeless and iconic. We can't let ubisoft get to tencent
i saw a lot of people in this comment section talk about "xdefiant being shut down coz its bad", the game isnt shutting down because its bad, its shutting down because ubisoft has no more money since every game they released recently has been a huge failure, ubisoft is predicted to go banckrupt by end of 2025 by market expert... thats why they are shutting games down
A single game caused this. Skull and Bones cost the equivalent of 5-8 AC Valhalla's and it flopped.
This drop hit hard. The maps, vision and direction are so impressive and amazing. Very player-centric. I hope that somewhere down the line it sees a resurrection.
It actually makes no sense why they've kept all this content back then when Ubisoft drops the game it's all released? Where was even a fraction of this content when the game was dying?
