  • XDefiant is now out of the last play test and back into the waiting game for the game's full release. When that will be, we don't quite know, but it's sometime upcoming and if reports are to believed, it's eyeing another summer release window here, hopefully for real this time around. But déjà vu and the potential memes of "I'll see you in another year" for the launch, I think there's an important discussion to be had about the hurdles still facing the game. Yes, it's awesome that we're getting a free to play, arcade shooter, no cost to us that we can grind out. Yes, it's awesome that in an industry that prioritizes SBMM and player retention as much as it does lately, it's awesome to not have that be an integral part of the game. Yes, it's awesome to have any sort of competition in an industry that can push all parties involved to hopefully be better and create a better product for players but beyond that? Like actually beyond the surface, what keeps you around? Today I wanted to discuss a few things that I'm hoping to see in the future for XDefiant as a bigger picture thing, so drop your thoughts, drop a like and subscribe for more XDefiant and other FPS coverage. For now, let's get into it... This is: There's Still a Few Challenges for XDefiant Upcoming...

    The only issue I had in the last play test was the fact the ttk was kinda all over the place. As in I got a few fast kills 25% of the time, while the rest I was dying too fast as if it were one shot kills with an SMG. I have good faith they will address this with a few other stuff, and I hope we get a release date soon.

    @Caspeaon Před měsícem +1

    Game has potential but it needs to come out bro, they already missed such a huge hype window and every week they drag this out, the more and more people I see lose intrest. The net code is still a problem, but they delayed it for over 6 months and it’s still the same if not worse for some people. I really want this game to do well but I really hope their handling of launch doesn’t set a precedent for post launch, because this game is going to die within months if they don’t change something.

    I don't see the PC Gaming community being open to playing this game as its exclusive to Uplay and will not be coming to Steam anytime soon where as COD will always be available on steam so they would be more likely to play that over a free to play game that is exclusive to a launcher that isn't steam.

    man an easy anti cheat is just having mods like a twitch chat and having an anti cheat running with them. also IP banning people, not just account banning. making them have to buy vpns to hack, adding more cost, which will only make more people stop or go somewhere else and do it.

    The easiest and most effective way to combat cheating, at least for console players, is to simply enable "Console-Only Cross-Play" and give the "PC Master@Cheating Race" their own dedicated Player-Pool... >99% of the cheating problem solved right there!
