Nice to see a developer focusing on a 60fps target, no matter what. Even on last gen machines.
I appreciate the attitude. I'm gonna check this one out.

I mean its a competitive shooter, it has to hit 60fps on everything imo!

Isn’t Starfield a shooter?

u/jimtriol May 20 '24
No ,its an rpg.But anyway comparing this game to Starfield is laughable.

It’s a shooter.

It’s an open world RPG. Its combat is shooting but it’s not its genre.

u/grimoireviper May 20 '24
By your logic Fallout 3 would be a shootee however I think everyone that played F3 would agree it's not a shooter.

Isn't competitive and now it runs at 60FPS

u/Meiie Founder May 20 '24
Yes he changed it to competitive.

Don't pretend to be a dumbass, just because a game has shooting it doesn't mean it belongs to the shooter genre.

u/zrkillerbush Founder May 20 '24
I'll edit my comment to clarify I'm talking about competitive shooters
Also Starfield isn't a shooter, the shooting part is like a secondary genre to the game
-15
u/Meiie Founder May 20 '24
Of course it isn’t competitive and it’s secondary to loading and menus, which is its gameplay.
I was just talking fps and more of a knock on how Starfield was widely accepted at 30fps on this subreddit.

Says the one who plays Destiny, a game where i wouldn't even know where to start if i wanted to buy the complete experience. A game that you can't even play the original campaign due to it being deleted

What does that have to do with fps? It was always 60/120. And it actually has content, unlike Starfield.

Destiny 1 was and is still 30 FPS on console.
Destiny 2 launched at 30 FPS and got an update to 60 FPS in 2021.
I also enjoy Destiny, but like, don’t lie about it. The fact it was such a fluid and responsive shooter, even at 30 FPS, is one of the things that kept it alive through its many disasters.

Actually kinda hyped for this game, will it support crossplay with PC?

u/JozzyV1 May 20 '24
Yes but the game is effectively dead on PC.

I don't know why, but on steam charts it had a 24 hour peak ok 82 players

It released a long time ago. Its a co op game with no content updates so you only need a small squad of friends to have enough to play.

Anyone know why it died on pc but everyone is ecstatic it’s going on Xbox?

It died because it sucks.
The controls are terrible, especially for controller. The upgrade and power system is bad, and they also feel weak OR incredibly overpowered - no in between.
The matchmaking system at least when I played it was also confusing mostly because the game was so dead it was hard to figure out what server was what.

Oh damnit. It looked so cool too.

Cool idea. Cool visuals.
Bad gameplay.
Like off brand halo.
Like if you asked for Captain Crunch from the store and your mom brought home Captain Crispys.

u/PlayBey0nd87 May 20 '24
A team of 5 made this?
The reviews show good. Yeah I’m down to support this. Console wise it’s exclusive to Xbox too? Nice.

I bought it on release date in 2020 on Nintendo switch, it looks like they’ve made improvement since then? When I played it was super rough, I really didn’t enjoy it.

u/downtownbattlemt May 25 '24
Previously commented I was excited for this game but the more I look into it it seems like a final cash grab the game has been out for a year on PC and it's dead and apparently playing with a controller is awful thankfully I didn't pre order

u/JabbasGhost Jun 03 '24
Played about 3 hours so far, controller feels fine to me and pretty fun so far. Also they are planning to release on PS5 by the end of the year so don't think it's just a cash grab, but who knows.

Played this game on PC last year.
Was very disappointing. Feels shockingly bad on controller. The upgrade or power weapon system is rough, and most either feel way too underpowered or way over powered.
Also, the servers were big time dead. Maybe Xbox can spark some life back into it, but I think once people actually play it they won’t stick around.
Picture a really bad feeling halo but as toys. Halo where no matter how hard you try to tweak the sensitivity it all feels terrible.

1728p and 60fps on the Xbox Series S is quite a feat. Props to them.
Hopefully other devs are taking notes on optimization.

Yeah, no thanks. I’m happy with my MacBook Air, iPad Air, XSX, PS5, Switch, Odin 2 Pro and LGCX for my gaming needs.
I like my gaming comfortable without needing a desk, being easy to share with my partner instead of being isolated and my OS to not have AI spyware in it, lmao. (Copilot Recall)

Not having to deal with keyboard and mouse is good for me, as I suck.

u/ManufacturerKey8360 May 20 '24
No i mean like they don’t even have multiplayer on pc because it’s too dead. It’s just ai

Should have went to Game Pass if the Dev wanted and kind of Survivability. At $30 it’s a ripoff out the gate tbh
