Games that bombed hard

OP all 3 of these games sold extremely well and yes the 1st 2 lost playerbases but who gives a fuck you got the monet. The 3rd one is a single player game thats also apparently the best seller of 2017

To this day I wonder how they managed to ruin such a great concept so fucking hard.
I'm legitimately disappointed. First they ruined Future Soldier, and now this.
Why isn't Ubisoft dead yet?

>>386654224
I enjoyed playing MGS V.

>>386654346
I'm talking about For Honor.
MGSV was alright.

>>386654224
You mean MGSV?

>PVP multiplayer game in [current year]
>no dedicated servers

>>386653891
Dedicated servers might save it, which they've announced, but it's their last and longest shot. I love the style and the core gameplay design is pretty neat but they need to pull their heads out of their asses when it comes to connectivity and balance.

>>386654070
Gaming is so corrupt, that I don't even trust the surveyors that collect this supposed information. That's like Blizzard reporting to investors that they still have millions of WoW players, when North American servers are ghost towns.

>>386653891

I still play it occasionally. But yeah it's barely alive on the Bone and dead on PC. It's a shame because I really enjoy it.

no pls

>>386654661
But these don't arrive till at the earliest 4 months from now, maybe the 2 new characters will breathe some life into the game but if it turns out like the last 2 they'll be horribly OP and end up losing players instead of gaining them.

What do you mean For Honor has some good waifus already

>>386654224

>Make a fighting game
>Promise local/offline MP
>Remove it right before release

>Wonder why your game bombed

That's how. If it had local MP it would have at least been fun to bring to parties and whatnot. Online-only games are cancer.

People shilled For Honor based around ONE fucking gamemode but then found out the game mode is shallow as fuck.

and I like For honor but the 1v1 playerbase were cancer

>>386653891
>>>/pol/

fuck off and die please, thanks

>>386655160

hopefully dedicated servers will show people 4v4 is the true way to play for honor

>>386655310
4v4 is pretty good but CC effects become stupidly good. That's why everyone complains about Cent so much. In 1v1 he's relatively balanced but in 4v4 you're fucked if he has a teammate nearby and you don't.

the beta was so good
this game had so much potential
I wish it didn't end like this, it was my first preorder since 2012, I vowed to never preorder shit after the catastrophe that year was but FH made me believe again

>>386656692
why is it bad tell me

>>386654672
NPD number don't lie. I do not trust game criticism as far as I could throw one of their fat asses but publicly shared companies like EA and Ubi are mandated by international trade laws to disclose sales.

>>386656830
shit servers
shit balance
no players
fucking regionlock which makes the number of players you can connect with even smaller- EVERYONE in the match has to speak the same language as you, even your enemies, and you CAN'T change the language to anything other than the one your IP dictates

>>386657467

there are players still though

>>386653891
one of the best selling games of the year 2017 has "bombed hard"?

the best selling game of 2017 across the entire industry has "bombed hard"?

>>386657542
I'm Polish, the game doesn't let me connect with civilised parts of the world and fucking nobody plays the game here

>>386657542
not many

>>386657640

I know they got rid of the player counter and steam stats but the ingame events were listing players at around over 15k on PC

>>386657750
the game has 1.3 million unique players per month across all platforms

>>386657813
I still play the game and this sounds like bullshit. Provide a source or go shill somewhere else.

>>386657926


Devs themselves apparently they even called the low player numbers fake news said that gaming journalists sites didnt know shit

>>386656646

Siege is an exception though.

>>386658048
nah thats trash too shitty netcode and female operators

>>386657926
devs said so on their own stream *shrug*

>>386658032
>trusting the devs completely
Maybe the low player count is exaggerated a little bit but the devs are biased. If player numbers are so high why did they remove the ability to see how many are currently playing in-game?

>>386658204

Kill yourself.

>they ruined Future Soldier
I severely hope you mean Future Soldier ruined Ghost Recon, and not that Future Soldier was a good game and that it's actually Wildlands that killed the series

Dedicated servers or not, For Honor's gameplay is shallow as fuck compared to other melee combat games.

>>386654807
I play like nothing but siege, Ubisoft dedicated servers are likely the worst in the business

>>386654853
Gameplay hasn't been enough to keep a game alive for 10 years. As sad as it sounds but a skinner box(loot, talents, ranks etc.) is what keeps people coming back. Todays online gaming market is so saturated that people get bored of games very quickly. Good gameplay is only the base minimum requirement for a game to become successful.

t. someone who played every single closed and open test/alpha/beta of For Honor and quit the game 5 days after release.

>>386653932
The Division got fixed, right?

>>386658538
>>386658462
if anything Wildlands brought the series back

>>386656646
When they stop releasing unfinished video games.

>>386658687
lol no, Future Soldier was bad but anything is better than Ubitowers Game #51973

Unfortunately all those games sold well thanks to casuals and normies.

>>386658048
no, siege is their worst game. it has the worst network code in any fps game ever made, period. the game literally stops working if ping is too low, that's why the last pro league finals were hosted on european online servers rather than a lan build, they couldnt get projectiles to work with sub 20 ping.
hit reg is terrible, balance is pretty hit or miss (who the fuck thought blackbeard was a good idea? and glaz's thermal scope seeing through smoke, are you fucking kidding me?), and they're not improving anything. operation health was supposed to fix these issues, instead theyre raising the tickrate from 50 to 60 which won't do a single thing (not to mention they said they already raised it to 60 back in february. turns out they lied, and their rented servers weren't able to handle 60), and spend their resources churning out more $15 cosmetic skins and loot crates. the game is a disaster, which is a shame considering the amount of potential it had.

>>386658610
ubi doesn't even use their own servers, Siege is hosted on rented business servers from Microsoft, which as you can see are absolute garbage

>>386658687
This, although it still wasn't that great.

>>386658538
I think what he means that it was a good concept that Ubisoft screwed up with health regen and a sync-shot system that made stealth essentially a game of "tag to kill". It lacked the suspense that the original had, and realism went out the window.

>>386653891
Never played it. Everyone hyped it hard at launch and then I didn't hear anyone talk about it after that

>>386653932
Mediocre for the first playthrough. Almost was complete shit with friends. Only time it isn't is when you're all the same level, otherwise someone will be OP and someone else will constantly get railed. No fun being the low level of the group in this at all, and the PVP zone was a complete missed opportunity to make a fun area.

>>386653967
I had a lot of fun with this one actually. The problem is that once you beat all the levels there isn't much left to do besides collect all the weapon parts and shit you missed. If you got bored of MGS5 once it was over this one won't last past that either.

>>386658873
okay but who on the spectrum enjoys videogames the most

>>386658965

Siege still has a playerbase so not an argument

>>386659069

but it doesnt mean its good

>>386659069
is this bait? yes and i bet there are thousands of people that eat literal feces, you gonna try to tell me feces are delicious? i'm sure you will because you still eat shit like siege. call of duty is still one of the best selling franchises every single year, is call of duty a good game? don't even reply to me, mouth breather

>>386659180

Siege didnt flop and that is what this thread is about so people dont give a fuck

>>386659234
so why does /v/ use the playerbase argument 24/7

Titanfall 2 is a good game but it doesnt have players

It's pretty sad how his 30 year old project is bombing, even though the game itself looks pretty lame.
