  • Concord gameplay looks worse to me after seeing hands-on previews. A combination of UI and HUD design mixed with an unmistakable tie to Destiny and Destiny 2 that I cannot unsee has raised my concern for if this game lasting the distance.
    Concord is an upcoming first-person hero shooter game developed by Firewalk Studios and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. The game is scheduled to release for PlayStation 5 and Windows on August 23, 2024.

    I’m not a multiplayer gamer so maybe this is a bit ignorant of a comment, but it seems like you’re missing a possibly huge IMPORTANT variable in your analysis. If I remember correctly, Fortnite wasn’t an instant success either. Epic just kept plugging away at it until it was. Didn’t PubG make mockery of Fortnite when it came out? The missing variable I’m talking about are updates and financial investment + dev talent pool. Maybe your presumption is correct that as soon as player base dwindles, Sony and firewall will pull the plug. Your assumption is likely accurate but who’s to say, because it seems even as reasonable and intelligent an argument as it is, that it still is just your assumption that they would pull the plug right away? Maybe they will keep plugging away at it until it becomes financially lucrative? Sony isn’t Square Enix after all. ofc, they don’t have the funds of a Microsoft but they do have a long term strategy and some funds, after all. Bethesda and Xbox have been doing this for ages. FO76 was a disaster until they kept plugging away until it started becoming lucrative. Grounded and sea of thieves same. Starfield was a big disaster in all metrics except financially, and is still being worked on, and even with all the backlash about $7 quests and mod store, for all intents, it’s become a huge financial success if reports are to be believed. It seems likely it depends a lot on how invested for the long run Sony and firewalk are. Not to mention even Destiny basically lost almost all initial players until they finally had some popular updates out? I would think a lot depends on how much they’re willing to lose until successful and how talented the devs are to be able to deliver fast timely updates, etc. as 💩 ish as this practice is, initial reception doesn’t seem to necessarily equate to long term success? Sony may have learned something from Bungie’s recommendations on LOU2 factions and decided just to first put out whatever slop and keep fixing it until successful? Is it even possible? Idk. Just saying. Nobody knows how much they bought firewalk for, but maybe Sony didn’t pay so much and kept a much larger budget number in mind to keep the wheels oiled, to lengthen the time to when they’d have to pull the plug? A lot of this smells like a calculated experiment on Sony’s part perhaps, and it will be interesting to see if firewalk gets shuttered or revamped, or given another chance at another IP, or what.

    I'd love a 5v5 or 6v6 shooter without the problematic tank role. That role sucks causes problems. Not only does this game have tanks, but they're incredibly slow. What were they thinking making the tanks move so slow??
    EDIT: I'm also not a fan of the slow movement in general and the floaty jumps. I crave skill based, fast paced, shooters with powers. I agree with RG on the whole font issue.

    Personally I disagree with everything about the complains here.
    The game seems ok, the variants for the characters seems interesting as for the roles for them as well, and really having destiny fells isn't a issue, specially when is developed by destiny devs. UI also seems fine and likely as I hope be possible to customize.
    Also thank god ttk is slower, otherwise stun or abilities alike would be absolutely annoying to deal with. But characters can manage to solo plays well if using them wise, from fotage there were people getting 2/3 kills, there's skill expression to show.
    Still we will see better when beta comes out.
    (Aside of that, marvel rivals comes next year, so concord really does have good chances for doing well, specially with the amount of content coming)
    Being f2p or paid really doesn't matter, if a game is shit, it wouldn't save it, OW1 was only online paid game and sell millions and there are morons that buy cod every single year, if people are or got interested they will buy it.
    As we get our hand on concord, just then we will see how it goes

    Concord is DOA because it's not free to play and on PC it requires a PSN. But not being free to play like overwatch or even the new marvel game is killing itself. You want players should have been free not 30 to 40 dollars Sony has lost there mind

    I mean without being hyperbolic, this looks like Destiny ordered off of Wish.
    As a pvp main I just don't think this game will move the needle. I have finally after about 6 to 7k hours hung up my boots in destiny, so I crave new pvp.. This looks like some random generic shooter that weve seen so many times plus I'm over hero shooters.
    I crave new pvp but I assure as a pvp mainer, this for me looks about as bland and generic as it gets.
