What went wrong?

Not having any sort of name recognition and trying to compete in a saturated market.

Overwatch happened some time ago, getting almost all the market, the remaining russian kids that can't afford OW play paladins

>let's make an FPS built around underwater level physics, because everyone fucking loves underwater levels

It tried to be the "Dark Souls of shooting games."

>all-time peak ~5k less than Battleborn

Oy vey

>>387035671
In every interview Blezinski brought up some sjw tier subject no matter how unrelated the question from the reporter was. He sold his game socially speaking based on muh based sjw. Glad to see it buried in shit. Just listen closely to any of them and you will see it for yourself.

>>387036539
and it's not even from launch, but from beta

Its worse and not nearly as balanced as OW

>>387035163
>What went wrong?
No marketing.

It is literally who the game, most people don't even know it exists.

It was less badass than Battleborn.

I would be surprised if anyone at all was like "oh this game looks sweet but transgender bathrooms hurt my feelings so I won't buy it".

Average SJW:
>I am a niggeeloving faggot cuck
Cliff Zimbabwe:
>FUCK YOU I am a niggeeloving faggot cuck YOU ASSHOLE

Wow Cliff is so snarky and unconventional a real rebel in the Twittersphere!
He should kill himself.

>advertise game
>let autistic and obnoxious manchildren with zero social skills do the marketing because devs interacting with the fanbase is such a good idea
>sales are shit
I can do some sick surfing moves on those brainwaves bro.

>What went wrong?

Same thing as Dawn of War 3, game doesn't appeal to anyone in particular and ends up just pissing off every single sub-group

>people who like shit like Overwatch will just keep playing Overwatch
>trying to steal that audience is as retarded as studios that try and make a new MOBA
>actual arena shooter players put off by garbage like 'ults' that you put in to try and appeal to the Overwatch players

These people don't buy or play arena shooters. See Quake Champions, UT4, Toxikk, Nexuiz etc.
Catering to them in any way is the dumbest thing a dev can do

>>387040561
it has some messy effects but looks fine

mission accomplished you totally btfo that dumb game

The UI is atrocious though
>Spell use doesn't give you a number for remaining duration
>Health is tucked away in the middle at the bottom
>Ammo count is on your gun which is FLAILING AROUND WILDLY, OFTEN OFF-SCREEN
>Gun takes a whole quarter of the screen
>All elements are transparent with no borders for some reason
>objective markers flying around with more visual contrast than anything else, even though you should easily be able to track them through level design
>Unknown bar
>Visual effects take up more screenspace than the HUD, so information can't be displayed there in favour of shiny helmet

>>387040741
>it has some messy effects but looks fine
are you fucking high, there is so much fucking unnecessary crap all over the screen already, then they layer more from hit effects
just fucking neck yourself kid, so you never end up on a design team that greenlights this shit

>>387041137
The point is that you should be able to keep track of them without their clear mark above their head.
Thanks for proving his point.

Everytime he came out to talk about the game he talked about how diverse were the characters and the people involved with the development of the game. Not a single fucking time he showed what cool shit we could do with a specific character, it was always some generic bulshit about anti gravity.

Was that HUD designed for a low-rez CRT, or did devs forget we game at 1920x1200?

when is an actually good arena shooter coming out?

>>387045059
nuquake, still no release date though

>>387041586
that gameplay looks pretty fun, shame it's filled with so much visual clutter, isn't there at least an option to turn all/some of that shit off?

>>387040001
Is this the biggest JUST in multiplayer gaming?
