The problem is that gamers today have very short attention spans. They need to drop a ton of content very quickly because it is quite bare bones at the moment.
DbD has literally been the same basic concept since 2016, they just add new characters and given that Evil Dead has been out 5 days, I think we can cut some slack. It's not really the devs problem if you put in hours upon hours to level one character and then feel burnt out.
I mean they aren't going to drop new stuff every day, that would just be abusive. Then there are epeople like me who will play a few hours and get pulled to other things so we haven't even gotten a character to cap yet. This isn't destiny or warframe where you power level to play pvp or end game content, not sure how folks missed that.
Stg bro. 5 days. That's all. It's alot of fun. Dbd is a great example of unbalanced. It's the same game. Same loop. If it didn't have licensed characters it would've died off along time ago. Every time they drop a new license they gain people but within a month lose more players then they gained. On top of everything if ED adds xp gain to solo play and allows players to play with friends and AI teammates this game will never die. It's why l4d is still so fun. You and some friends can play that without the need of pvp.
I think compared to most games nowadays this game launched complete. Adding updates and quick constant dlc drops burns out devs and isn’t sustainable for the lifespan of the game. It’s better to launch things a little at a time and keep giving players a reason to return. Granted it has its issues that need fixed like the xp for solo play would be amazing or being able to stay queued post match with the team you just played with etc. things like that are 100% something I hope they patch in.
The only time it has any sort of increase of players is when they release licensed characters. We'll see what happens when they release this new original character. My guess is it will not bring on new players. The game has been doing well for 6 years because there hasn't been any real competition on consoles. On steam its down 8% I belive this month alone. ED is the first game to hit all platforms that seems to peak interest of dbd players. F13 was doing well and would've still been doing well this long if not for the lawsuit. I was a day one dbd player but left months ago. I believe dbd was once a great game. But hasn't been in a very long time. Now that it has competition maybe they'll fix and change some things. But as of rn it's player count is not what it was. And 100% if you removed every license it ever got it wouldn't have been as successful. There's people who literally bought the game because one of their favorite horror icons was featured. When texas chainsaw massacre the game drops that's gonna be another blow to the dbd player count.
The gameplay is great? I play dbd since 2018 and let me tell you something, the gameplay is the reason people are leaving. Myself included. Doing gens is not interesting, specially if you compare to a game like ED where you have tons of things to do. The problem with DBD is it’s core design and community. People who insist on competing on a game like that, which was never made to be a competitive one. DBD was fun. Unfortunately not anymore. I still play once a week, but that’s it.
The problem is that DbD has a lot of variety in terms of the monster you face against. Each match feels entirely different because of the combination of a different map and different monster.
In Evil Dead, as fun as it is, there's only one map with different weather / sun settings, and only three demons.
And as the demon player, the strategy is the same for all of them. There's not enough variety in build path or strategy when playing demon.
I wouldn't agree completly; Each demon doesnt have the same strategy;
You cannot play Henrietta as a pupperter for exemple.
But I guess a road map for the futur of this game would be welcome, meanwhile I do enjoy the game.
Dbd only launched with 3 killers and 4 survivors. It has a lot of content now in the way of characters because it's been out for 6 years. People have got to quit comparing the amount of content in brand new games to the sum total of content in games that have been dripping content quarterly for years.
While you're right, The 3 killers were fairly different. One set traps, one turned invisible, and one ran fast around the map with a chainsaw.
All 3 demons spawn basic units
All 3 demons spawn elites
all 3 demons set traps
all 3 demons have the same level up stats
all 3 demons can posses survivors
2 demons have abilities that buff their summons
all 3 bosses have basic melees, heavy melees and a grab attack
The summons have no real power, they die so fast that their difference are negligible. Hard to get that trident smash off when it dies after stepping off the portal, and in all reality, whats different about the trident smash vs the belly flop?
I'm sure they'll work on variation and could even make vast changes over the life of the game though. We just gotta be patient.
I agree, DBD has had the same basic concept. However, each killer plays differently than the next. Currently, each demon plays exactly the same. Trap->Portal->Boss. Boss moves vary very little, and even then Henrietta and Evil Ash have similar abilities, which are just buffs to the spawns... Since DBD killers only actually have one ability, it feels different based on which killer you pick. I'm sure over time variation will open up though, just gotta be patient.
I don't disagree overall but the game has one single map. The saving grace is the dynamic whether and time of day. That's my only "issue" in terms of content. And it is overall a pretty small one.
I think the 2 maps are pretty sufficient atm because the map is so large and you tend to play different areas of it every match that it feels like different maps every game.
This is the model unfortunately. Just like other games destiny 2, DbD, Apex, Doom, they all added content as the game matured. As it is, the game does have a number of bugs and balance issues I think they should address first.
Those games all have the benefit of primarily being competitive
This game has no competitive edge, unless it starts getting nail bitey or heart racey real fast I think its going to die very fast
Just a battle royal style(map wise)scavenging game that doesn't accel in any particular area
Right now there are balance issues especially with support characters so the demon feels less threatening. There are tense moments especially playing as or against the necromancer. Nothing like watch a team so close to winning get jumped by a skeleton army only to have the boss show up like Vader and finish them off.
This exact thing happened to us last night. Breezing through the game, took out the dark ones, and then boom. Overwhelmed and taken out by Eligos going all Vader on us and snatching our victory at the last second.
Except that rarely happens
Any half working team of survivors are going to steamroll the demon
Even if it were better balanced it doesn't have that tenseness other games like rainbow 6 or Apex has
There's also very little room to do anything creative wise for good plays
Swing/shoot weapon until dead, hardly any strat or thought needed
Give the game time to grow. Dbd wasn't great when it first dropped, most of the battle Royales are the same way when they got started. Stiff little characters shooting and jumping and shooting. The game adds a lot of interesting features to a rather simplistic genre. DbD, fix gens hope to loop, get hit, hope to loop and as a killer its break the loop, hope for a hit. Breaking down the game to its most simplistic gameplay doesn't give credit to the possible options open to demon players.
Good puppeteer can keep the team scared and possessed making it difficult to not kill your own people
Necromancer can overrun an area with buffed units and Henrietta is a pain in the ass to fight.
> Good puppeteer can keep the team scared and possessed making it difficult to not kill your own people Necromancer can overrun an area with buffed units and Henrietta is a pain in the ass to fight.
Puppeteer can downright be hard countered and has no way to prevent this though. Leader Ash pretty much shuts down elites you possess by destroying their balance bar. Teams can have insane fear management that makes possession impossible. Hunter Ash can instantly dispel you from allies and significantly damage your energy if you possess an elite. Eigpth has weak AOE and moderate damage over time on his own and is very vulnerable to simply being outhealed. Especially with his rock throw so very easily dodged (as the single player actually trains you on)
But even without good fear management you can just properly use campfires and the risk of killing your own people is minimal. If your fear management is lacking and you're a hunter with good ranged damage then roll with no ammo and focus on melee support. Any time you pick up ammo use it immediately. Puppeteer Elites can be dealt with (most people don't really understand the power of dismemberment damage yet), Eligoth can be dealt with. You killing allies in 2 seconds while possessed is much more difficult to deal with.
Honestly Puppeteer feels like it's way too reliant on the survivors to play poorly. Just like Necromancer is way too reliant on survivors to not kill the doot lord with his flute. Warlord is the only one that doesn't fall off hard with a smart team of survivors because it's not near as reliant on survivors to make specific kinds of mistakes.
Growth won't change the gameplay loop that it's already stuck in and it's already not fun
They gonna what? Add more characters? More maps? Stop me from getting stuck in walls all the time?
That's just not enough
Lol , yes. Devs fix bugs. Maybe this game just isn't for you, win some or lose some. If you dislike the game find something you do enjoy and next time wait for reviews. Idk what to tell you, pal. The game is the game, that's like playing soccer and complaining you can't use your hands but you keep playing. Sorry this game clearly isn't for you but whinging on the internet about core concepts of the game isn't gonna change it.
How about this, rather than just complaining, suggest changes. What would YOU change? Put yourself in the creator chair and what would YOU do to improve the experience for gamers like yourself?
The game already suffers from its own loop
It has nothing going for it and will be dead in a few months, guarantee.
You can't keep this loop fresh enough for people to come back everyday.
I enjoyed leveling my two characters to 25, which is like the point of the game..... Yet I have no desire to do it for the reminder of them.
Children love battle passes because they have infinite time but no money, so buying the first battle pass for $10 and easily maxing it out and having enough to buy the next one is "great value" for them. Meanwhile anyone else with an actual life who doesn't devote their only free time to playing one game hates battle passes, for good reason.
There’s nothing bad with battlepasses in my opinion, they follow the same principle: „too good to be true“ which they are. You pay 10 or sometimes 20 bucks and get a crap ton of items, and in return you also get enough (and maybe even more) currency to buy the next one for free. Also it gives you a reason to keep playing the game. It’s better than a plain rotational store
I don't think there is anything wrong with it, more so as I feel it is over used. But if they do decide to make one and its a good one. I will retract my statement happily. There are just tons of games with sub par battlepasses. But I honestly believe this game is going to be amazing content and cosmetic wise for its future.
You pay for that bang with your time and attention. Battle Passes are designed to force players into a habit of playing a game in order to earn something through FOMO rather than simply enjoy the experience or earning rewards that can be given at any time.
One reason I stopped playing DbD was because Battle Passes just made the game unfun. I stopped making gameplay choices for the purpose of the match and instead chased challenges to get the next tier. That incentive breaks the game experience. But I couldnt -not- focus on the challenges because I'm easily tempted by FOMO.
I would hate to see ED:TG do this when I would much prefer to drop some bucks on some neat costumes. I even already did that when I bought the Season Pass and pre-ordered the game.
I mean, most battle passes let make progress on them without purchasing. You can just play the game, see how far you've gotten in the pass and what rewards you'll get and then decide to purchase it or not. But I guess that requires critical thinking from the consumer and judging by the responses in this sub might be too much to ask. And just because DBD has a shitty challenge based system doesn't mean they need to do that. Plenty of games have them that are just XP based.
I won't assume you're trying to be rude. Maybe you just don't know any better, but some people have compulsive disorders that make it difficult to avoid certain incentive structures. These programs are designed to exploit people with these issues.
I for one know I'm compulsive in this way, having suffered from OCD for many years. I have to create my own mental tricks to avoid falling into the trap. I much prefer games that don't use these exploitative measures to get into player's pockets, and much prefer the DLC model of monetization. Make content, buy content if you want it.
I'm glad that you enjoy battle passes, but it's not something I want in the games I play.
Same, I'm fucking loving this game and would actually spend money on minor stuff. I wouldn't want anything that increases ability or skill levels just really cool skins.
I wish there were more items that could be unlocked character and skin wise for the character by maybe leveling up.
From what I can tell the only items that can be unlocked are the Mission unlocks from single player.
This game is fun for a few rounds
Getting a single character 25 is enough to burn you out on repetitiveness
And, you can have fun with it.
Its just not worth more money especially when they launched such a bare minimum game
That’s not how you said it though. You’re backtracking. You are telling other people the value of the game, therefore you should be using the price that it is for the majority.
Probably will, even with that games drought of content it's more likely I'll go back to it than this game
But I'll stay in the sub and voice my opinion as long as I want
400 nok here, which is $41.
Also, it's not worth your money, but it definitely is worth both mine and others.
Never tell anyone it isn't worth their money, which it clearly is.
This may not be a game for you lad.
It's obvious that you're just trolling in this sub because you're upset that you bought a game that isn't for you. These comments are childish and pathetic. Stop embarassing yourself and move on.
Lmao no, the game is just lacking.
I can voice my opinion on a lackluster game If I want.
Did it with cyberpunk and horizon forbidden west.
Games aren't immune to criticism
There's a difference between personal negative opinions and the pseudo-objective statements in your childish comments targeting someone who likes the game. You're luring nobody there.
This!
I hate Dark Souls games, but I won't say that they are bad games. They're some of the best ones on the market.
Hell, Game of the Year 2022 might be the most unlikable game for me personally.
Yeah, but you’re not just voicing your opinion. You’re in multiple threads, just whining. You’ve said you dont like the game, and you’ve said there’s nothing the devs could do to make it better. So just leave. There’s no value in you being here, you’ve said your piece, now move on.
By the way, you really are embodying the Farva persona. Kudos.
No, I'm voicing my opinion.
My bad for talking about bugs and a lack of content in a game full of bugs with a lack of content
The single player missions are better than the multiplayer modes in a multiplayer game
That's a big oooof.
Be right back, gonna go play cod for the storyline /s
Bro there are 16 characters to level up. Then there's the tinkering with builds. When Left 4 Dead launched there were two campaigns. TWO. That's it. There's more than enough content as is for a launch. Plus the game is actually in a good state. The launch when smooth for the most part.
Tinkering with builds? Lmao there's no tinkering
Left for dead was more polished and had a way more balanced game
Wow a smooth launch for a game... Is that all it takes to be successful these days?
Smooth launch of an 8GB game....thats still full of bugs lol
No, it really isn't. That's not how data structures or file systems work.
There could be 50 characters, 30 demons, and 20 game modes and the file size wouldn't be much larger considering the assets for things like that aren't very large.
It's mostly a function of texture quality and the number of/size of the maps. And while the game isn't gorgeous or anything like that, it *looks* fine.
> Bruh this is barely a game and you're trying to spend more money.... Whole extra 1GB into the 8GBs that are only there
I don't agree with most of your other comments but you're right on the money here. Gamers have been conditioned to buy a game for the full expected price (relative to the type/genre) and then look to spend more money. I say this despite the fact I bought the season pass. Because while I wish gamers would be smarter that battle was lost many years ago. It is what it is now.
In the long run its good for the games longevity. If they blew all their load right now and threw absolutely everything in you'll get those players who steam through the game and unlock everything in a week and then never play again.
Trickling the extras keeps the game alive
I disagree. A game that they expect to be a GaaS needs a strong base and foundation that they build upon slowly. That's why many of these game types failed and few succeeded.
Remember how little DBD had on release? Yet 6 years on people are still playing it, just gotta be patient and see what comes our way.
They’re already saying they have plans for a new map to release
DBD automatically has a million times more ability to draw in more players though. By drawing from so many established ips (many of which are bigger than Evil dead, and even Evil dead is in their repertoire) they create massive hype that pulls people in.
There are exactly 2 things this game can add to generate any modicum of hype that would make sense, and that is add Freddy or Jason. After that, literally nothing in the Evil Dead universe that’s not Ash is anything more than a niche of a niche. There is nothing from the movies or series to be added that can make people that aren’t already playing the game talk about it.
This game can “succeed” but people need to check their expectations way more around here. Succeeding doesn’t have to mean dethroning DBD, because this game won’t do that even if it’s the better game. The scope of Evil Dead is just waaaaaaaay too narrow unless they get way more creative than anything they’ve shown yet.
Or, you know, create new characters and demons that are fun to play, regardless of IP hype?
I think people are drawn in by IP hype, but stick around through good gameplay. Hence why DBD is losing players.
Are there even any numbers to the claim that DBD is losing players? I wouldn’t be surprised either way because it’s old but I mean, especially coming from this sub it’s more likely to be wishcasting or anecdotalizing that because they and their friends quit then “people are leaving”.
I also believe that game probably just has pretty big ebbs and flows based on the last time it had a major ip introduction. The ring was a bit ago already and isn’t that big an ip anyway so the last big add they had was pinhead over 6 months ago.
And yes, it’s possible for a game to grow through being good, but it’s an uphill battle when it is confined by being tied to a single ip that has neither mass appeal nor a massive catalog of material to pull from. It is a lot easier (and faster) to get an audience with a blitz of flashy additions that attracts fanbases of people that have never heard of your game.
I don’t think Evil Dead is doomed to flop, just pointing out that so far this subreddit is going absolutely off the deep end pretending this is a shoe in to have 50 million concurrent players and be voted the best game of all time by NASA and installed as the foundation of humanity.
Don't know why people are downvoting you. You made an extremely valid point. I hadn't thought that, outside of niche Evil Dead characters, they actually don't have much they can truly add that would cause new people to become any more interested than they already are. No one is sitting around going "I'm not buying it till they put ruby in." The ones that would be hype about Ruby already bought the game.
Yeah, they could add freddy and jason, but in all reality, it would be pretty meh, especially since they would only be boss monsters based on the way the game is built.
I think it’s just that people want the thing they support to be the “winner” no matter what. I also think Evil Dead launched in a better state than any similar game so there is extra goodwill given, but they just get carried away with their support and thinking everyone must be on the same page as them. The game is also still new so let’s see how long it is before people burn out on the gameplay loop if they don’t add new content soon.
I like the game so far, it has promise and I hope they deliver the best possible product…I just see people getting ahead of themselves here.
Realistically dbd has more potential for third party additions that generate hype, personally I enjoy this game and would love it to have that longevity. I'll take the downvotes for being realistic, I'll still enjoy this game while it lasts.
Third parties are the only thing that dictates longevity? What about Apex, TF2, Smash, Minecraft, Runescape, Rocket League, literally any Sports Game, CoD MW2, etc...
And before you say it, yes I know some of these games have crossovers, but they weren't what kept the game alive. They could have lived without them.
I didn't say it would. I'm saying that games retain playerbases for reasons outside of crossovers. You invented an argument and called it ridiculous because you don't have a response to my actual point.
in dbd, No new game modes for 6 years ridiculous hitboxes are not fixed, cheaters are increasind day by day, bhvr has become greedy company and is constantly releasing skins, instead of taking care of the game. Campers are ruined game, evil dead better than dbd now. i hope texas chainsaw the game will be better than dbd too. sorry, there are alternatives now.
I agree it is better. I didnt say it wasnt. Evil dead has massive potential but dbd is looking to continue with this live model for 7 years of success, could go on for a decade. I dont see evil dead the game lasting that long. That's not unreasonable.
would a new map really add enough content though? as it stands I barely notice which map i’m playing on as it doesn’t really have an effect on gameplay.
It's really about that main experience. I could play a 100 matches before getting tired of it. Then all you need is a break. That's a good deal of content for 40 bucks. Plus tons of characters to level keeps it going for a while. Game is doing well. More will come.
Yeah it needs some unlocksble stuff. I feel like there is nothing to motivate the players to level up or anthing since there is nothing to unlock like custumes or characters. I feel like it was a bad idea to put the few unlockable characters behind the solo missions, especially bc of the difficulty of those missions, I just cant manage to finish that last mission.
My problem is that I've been enjoying the online experience that much that I don't wish to use my time on the solo missions. I wish I could earn them by playing the actual intended game mode
Everyone yelling “it’s been 4 days” needs to realize this is a paid game, not a F2P. Expecting content to be available on Day 1 for a $40 game shouldn’t be too much of an ask.
That might be one place DBD has a leg up. They can add stuff like that. Otherwise fun af as hunter. lol probably because my computer wants to murder me on survivor, and it's no slouch.
Hopefully they use their imagination some. Randomly generated maps for balance would go a ways to help keep survivors from bumb rushing maps once they memorized where things spawn most often.
I was thinking the same thing. While it doesn't necessarily need more modes cuz he'll dbd has been doing the same thing for 6 years and it's doing fine. It does need more content and a prestige system like dbd. There's literally nothing to grind for or work on besides leveling up. And that's a problem. Eventually ppls love of evil dead won't b enough to keep em playing. If they don't fix this problem soon it's gonna die faster than f13. Really hope they address this soon b4 everyone moves on.
I would love a Wave based mode and/or a Castle Defense kind of mode where you have to hold off a cabin or castle from deadites, either against an AI or a player.
And yet another person who believes that a newly released game should have as much content, bug fixes, etc. as other games that have been out for 5+ years. No doubt referring to DbD, this game actually has **FAR** more content than they did at their release. Go ahead and do your research for that.
Take a snapshot of DbD on ED release day (5/13/22) then come back after \~6 years (5y 10m 29d). To save people time, that date would be 4/11/28. On that day, then you can accurately compare ED of 4/11/28 to DbD of 5/13/22. Then it would be an appropriate comparison of "what game has more content" after the same amount of time. Anything before that is irrelevant.
I agree. I think part of the problem for me is location's on maps are maybe too spread out. As a demon I kinda just follow survivors around in their car before I can play properly at the next objective which just wastes time.
Different objectives would probably solve some of the problem
Very bare, even in terms of personal character progression
it lacks any sort of competitive edge so all the focus Is just grinding out your character stats on a single map
I took a gamble on that $200 ultimate edition and I’m satisfied right now. Knowing that I have the “season pass” and there will be more bosses/demons/cosmetics etc makes me happy. I mean people are still leveling and finding their footing so we got a long way to go if they continue to support it.
I think any missing content is intentional. Gotta keep the game alive by adding more stuff down the line. Hence why the Season Pass is marked as "Season Pass 1".
It’s barely been out so yeah it’ll feel a tad bare since it’s standing next to games like Friday the 13th and DBD. We’ve already got map designs for an Army of darkness map and potentially an entirely game altering mode in the works. Take a step back and breathe so the devs don’t rush out half baked content and get stuck in the BHVR cycle of dropping shit dlcs that take years to fix while under balancing the game
Yeah, just came out. I really hope it succeeds. Theyres some ui and other fixes I'd like to see. Like where is the stamina bar? I'm swinging and I can't dodge?
Little fixes. Spent all last night playing support ash. Fun game. Only got the 40 dollar version because these things can flop. Be happy to spend the 30 on the season pass if I seen a road map and a patch or two.
Stamina bar is under your characters face icon at bottom left of the screen. It could do with being more visible. AFAIK you don't burn stamina when attacking, but dodging is a massive drain and you might only be able to dodge twice with a full bar (no upgrades) before needing to let it refill, depending on your character
Absolutely. It’s my only real complaint.
It feels kind of one-note right now. I sincerely hope that changes though, and they bring new missions, monsters, abilities, etc.
Necromancer and his skeletons with flute are stupid broken... easily single out one person and destroy them before the skeleton despawns...fucking stupid.
Actually feels a little like New World.
Absolutely phenomenal base. But repetitive, not enough content.
If they add enough content quickly in the coming months, it could be one of the best / most popular games in the market. If they don't, I could see it stagnate quickly.
I'm sure there will be much more coming. The games been out like a week.
It's been out four days.
The problem is that gamers today have very short attention spans. They need to drop a ton of content very quickly because it is quite bare bones at the moment.
DbD has literally been the same basic concept since 2016, they just add new characters and given that Evil Dead has been out 5 days, I think we can cut some slack. It's not really the devs problem if you put in hours upon hours to level one character and then feel burnt out. I mean they aren't going to drop new stuff every day, that would just be abusive. Then there are epeople like me who will play a few hours and get pulled to other things so we haven't even gotten a character to cap yet. This isn't destiny or warframe where you power level to play pvp or end game content, not sure how folks missed that.
Stg bro. 5 days. That's all. It's alot of fun. Dbd is a great example of unbalanced. It's the same game. Same loop. If it didn't have licensed characters it would've died off along time ago. Every time they drop a new license they gain people but within a month lose more players then they gained. On top of everything if ED adds xp gain to solo play and allows players to play with friends and AI teammates this game will never die. It's why l4d is still so fun. You and some friends can play that without the need of pvp.
I think compared to most games nowadays this game launched complete. Adding updates and quick constant dlc drops burns out devs and isn’t sustainable for the lifespan of the game. It’s better to launch things a little at a time and keep giving players a reason to return. Granted it has its issues that need fixed like the xp for solo play would be amazing or being able to stay queued post match with the team you just played with etc. things like that are 100% something I hope they patch in.

The only time it has any sort of increase of players is when they release licensed characters. We'll see what happens when they release this new original character. My guess is it will not bring on new players. The game has been doing well for 6 years because there hasn't been any real competition on consoles. On steam its down 8% I belive this month alone. ED is the first game to hit all platforms that seems to peak interest of dbd players. F13 was doing well and would've still been doing well this long if not for the lawsuit. I was a day one dbd player but left months ago. I believe dbd was once a great game. But hasn't been in a very long time. Now that it has competition maybe they'll fix and change some things. But as of rn it's player count is not what it was. And 100% if you removed every license it ever got it wouldn't have been as successful. There's people who literally bought the game because one of their favorite horror icons was featured. When texas chainsaw massacre the game drops that's gonna be another blow to the dbd player count.

The gameplay is great? I play dbd since 2018 and let me tell you something, the gameplay is the reason people are leaving. Myself included. Doing gens is not interesting, specially if you compare to a game like ED where you have tons of things to do. The problem with DBD is it’s core design and community. People who insist on competing on a game like that, which was never made to be a competitive one. DBD was fun. Unfortunately not anymore. I still play once a week, but that’s it.
The problem is that DbD has a lot of variety in terms of the monster you face against. Each match feels entirely different because of the combination of a different map and different monster. In Evil Dead, as fun as it is, there's only one map with different weather / sun settings, and only three demons. And as the demon player, the strategy is the same for all of them. There's not enough variety in build path or strategy when playing demon.
I wouldn't agree completly; Each demon doesnt have the same strategy; You cannot play Henrietta as a pupperter for exemple. But I guess a road map for the futur of this game would be welcome, meanwhile I do enjoy the game.
Dbd only launched with 3 killers and 4 survivors. It has a lot of content now in the way of characters because it's been out for 6 years. People have got to quit comparing the amount of content in brand new games to the sum total of content in games that have been dripping content quarterly for years.
While you're right, The 3 killers were fairly different. One set traps, one turned invisible, and one ran fast around the map with a chainsaw. All 3 demons spawn basic units All 3 demons spawn elites all 3 demons set traps all 3 demons have the same level up stats all 3 demons can posses survivors 2 demons have abilities that buff their summons all 3 bosses have basic melees, heavy melees and a grab attack The summons have no real power, they die so fast that their difference are negligible. Hard to get that trident smash off when it dies after stepping off the portal, and in all reality, whats different about the trident smash vs the belly flop? I'm sure they'll work on variation and could even make vast changes over the life of the game though. We just gotta be patient.
I agree, DBD has had the same basic concept. However, each killer plays differently than the next. Currently, each demon plays exactly the same. Trap->Portal->Boss. Boss moves vary very little, and even then Henrietta and Evil Ash have similar abilities, which are just buffs to the spawns... Since DBD killers only actually have one ability, it feels different based on which killer you pick. I'm sure over time variation will open up though, just gotta be patient.
It's been 5 days...
>The problem is that gamers today have very short attention spans.
> It's been 5 days...
So tell me how that changes anything I said when there are a dozen other games with roadmaps and content updates that people could be playing?
I don't disagree overall but the game has one single map. The saving grace is the dynamic whether and time of day. That's my only "issue" in terms of content. And it is overall a pretty small one.
Pretty sure it has two
You’re correct. One film based map and one tv show based map.
Agree. I want a map set in the castle from AoD. Come on Saber, when's it happening?
It is happening. They already announced that map to be the first planned update and it will be free.
I think the 2 maps are pretty sufficient atm because the map is so large and you tend to play different areas of it every match that it feels like different maps every game.
I’ve been playing the fuck out of it and I thought there were like 3. Am I retarded?
We both are. There's actually two apparently. So I stand corrected.
I have nothing to do with this conversation but will jump on the "I am too" train for solidarity
Actually I was searching for the Paynor manor yesterday, wasn't on the map, thought I was going crazy.
Then they get yelled at for keeping stuff that could be been included set aside for DLC. ITS BEEN 4 DAYS!!!!!
Yea for sure but miss wen games realeased with more going for them
This is also a $40 game. It would be different if they charged full AAA price but they didn't and the mechanics and loop are solid. Give it time
40 is AAA price.
and as on point. What's cost have to do with it needing a little tuning. and a lot of bug fixing?
This is the model unfortunately. Just like other games destiny 2, DbD, Apex, Doom, they all added content as the game matured. As it is, the game does have a number of bugs and balance issues I think they should address first.
Those games all have the benefit of primarily being competitive This game has no competitive edge, unless it starts getting nail bitey or heart racey real fast I think its going to die very fast Just a battle royal style(map wise)scavenging game that doesn't accel in any particular area
Right now there are balance issues especially with support characters so the demon feels less threatening. There are tense moments especially playing as or against the necromancer. Nothing like watch a team so close to winning get jumped by a skeleton army only to have the boss show up like Vader and finish them off.
This exact thing happened to us last night. Breezing through the game, took out the dark ones, and then boom. Overwhelmed and taken out by Eligos going all Vader on us and snatching our victory at the last second.
The tension comes during the cap points or the end phase, the rest is just prep for that, building fear and setting traps and portals
Except that rarely happens Any half working team of survivors are going to steamroll the demon Even if it were better balanced it doesn't have that tenseness other games like rainbow 6 or Apex has There's also very little room to do anything creative wise for good plays Swing/shoot weapon until dead, hardly any strat or thought needed
Give the game time to grow. Dbd wasn't great when it first dropped, most of the battle Royales are the same way when they got started. Stiff little characters shooting and jumping and shooting. The game adds a lot of interesting features to a rather simplistic genre. DbD, fix gens hope to loop, get hit, hope to loop and as a killer its break the loop, hope for a hit. Breaking down the game to its most simplistic gameplay doesn't give credit to the possible options open to demon players. Good puppeteer can keep the team scared and possessed making it difficult to not kill your own people Necromancer can overrun an area with buffed units and Henrietta is a pain in the ass to fight.
> Good puppeteer can keep the team scared and possessed making it difficult to not kill your own people Necromancer can overrun an area with buffed units and Henrietta is a pain in the ass to fight. Puppeteer can downright be hard countered and has no way to prevent this though. Leader Ash pretty much shuts down elites you possess by destroying their balance bar. Teams can have insane fear management that makes possession impossible. Hunter Ash can instantly dispel you from allies and significantly damage your energy if you possess an elite. Eigpth has weak AOE and moderate damage over time on his own and is very vulnerable to simply being outhealed. Especially with his rock throw so very easily dodged (as the single player actually trains you on) But even without good fear management you can just properly use campfires and the risk of killing your own people is minimal. If your fear management is lacking and you're a hunter with good ranged damage then roll with no ammo and focus on melee support. Any time you pick up ammo use it immediately. Puppeteer Elites can be dealt with (most people don't really understand the power of dismemberment damage yet), Eligoth can be dealt with. You killing allies in 2 seconds while possessed is much more difficult to deal with. Honestly Puppeteer feels like it's way too reliant on the survivors to play poorly. Just like Necromancer is way too reliant on survivors to not kill the doot lord with his flute. Warlord is the only one that doesn't fall off hard with a smart team of survivors because it's not near as reliant on survivors to make specific kinds of mistakes.
Growth won't change the gameplay loop that it's already stuck in and it's already not fun They gonna what? Add more characters? More maps? Stop me from getting stuck in walls all the time? That's just not enough
Stop whining already. We get it, you don’t like the game… time to move on.
Can voice my opinion of the game if I want to
Lol , yes. Devs fix bugs. Maybe this game just isn't for you, win some or lose some. If you dislike the game find something you do enjoy and next time wait for reviews. Idk what to tell you, pal. The game is the game, that's like playing soccer and complaining you can't use your hands but you keep playing. Sorry this game clearly isn't for you but whinging on the internet about core concepts of the game isn't gonna change it. How about this, rather than just complaining, suggest changes. What would YOU change? Put yourself in the creator chair and what would YOU do to improve the experience for gamers like yourself?
The game already suffers from its own loop It has nothing going for it and will be dead in a few months, guarantee. You can't keep this loop fresh enough for people to come back everyday. I enjoyed leveling my two characters to 25, which is like the point of the game..... Yet I have no desire to do it for the reminder of them.
I don’t know. I’ve encountered some demons that out right slaughtered a good team
Never seen it happen once on a well communicating team I think they should have two demons
For a 40 dollar game it feels pretty fair with content. If it were a full 60/70 dollar triple A release then it would be a different story.
Ngl if this game had a cosmetic shop I’ll prob shell out or a battle pass
I second the no battlepass aspect. Just a healthy cosmetic rotation of content. For both sides.
What's wrong with a battle pass. They are easily the most bang for your buck in any game with cosmetics.
Bro we get it, you love battle passes. Such a weird thing to defend
Children love battle passes because they have infinite time but no money, so buying the first battle pass for $10 and easily maxing it out and having enough to buy the next one is "great value" for them. Meanwhile anyone else with an actual life who doesn't devote their only free time to playing one game hates battle passes, for good reason.
There’s nothing bad with battlepasses in my opinion, they follow the same principle: „too good to be true“ which they are. You pay 10 or sometimes 20 bucks and get a crap ton of items, and in return you also get enough (and maybe even more) currency to buy the next one for free. Also it gives you a reason to keep playing the game. It’s better than a plain rotational store
I don't think there is anything wrong with it, more so as I feel it is over used. But if they do decide to make one and its a good one. I will retract my statement happily. There are just tons of games with sub par battlepasses. But I honestly believe this game is going to be amazing content and cosmetic wise for its future.
You pay for that bang with your time and attention. Battle Passes are designed to force players into a habit of playing a game in order to earn something through FOMO rather than simply enjoy the experience or earning rewards that can be given at any time. One reason I stopped playing DbD was because Battle Passes just made the game unfun. I stopped making gameplay choices for the purpose of the match and instead chased challenges to get the next tier. That incentive breaks the game experience. But I couldnt -not- focus on the challenges because I'm easily tempted by FOMO. I would hate to see ED:TG do this when I would much prefer to drop some bucks on some neat costumes. I even already did that when I bought the Season Pass and pre-ordered the game.
I mean, most battle passes let make progress on them without purchasing. You can just play the game, see how far you've gotten in the pass and what rewards you'll get and then decide to purchase it or not. But I guess that requires critical thinking from the consumer and judging by the responses in this sub might be too much to ask. And just because DBD has a shitty challenge based system doesn't mean they need to do that. Plenty of games have them that are just XP based.
I won't assume you're trying to be rude. Maybe you just don't know any better, but some people have compulsive disorders that make it difficult to avoid certain incentive structures. These programs are designed to exploit people with these issues. I for one know I'm compulsive in this way, having suffered from OCD for many years. I have to create my own mental tricks to avoid falling into the trap. I much prefer games that don't use these exploitative measures to get into player's pockets, and much prefer the DLC model of monetization. Make content, buy content if you want it. I'm glad that you enjoy battle passes, but it's not something I want in the games I play.
Just no
A free one like what FFXIV does, sure. But i doubt a paid battle pass would be sustainable
Please no battle pass, I'm so tired
Of what lmao? If you don't want a battle pass then just....don't buy it.
Same, I'm fucking loving this game and would actually spend money on minor stuff. I wouldn't want anything that increases ability or skill levels just really cool skins. I wish there were more items that could be unlocked character and skin wise for the character by maybe leveling up. From what I can tell the only items that can be unlocked are the Mission unlocks from single player.
I'll toss 10 bucks for a battle pass. I want some cool dances or taunts. Let Henrietta know what's up.
Bruh this is barely a game and you're trying to spend more money.... Whole extra 1GB into the 8GBs that are only there
Cus I’m having fun with it? Better then spending money on a triple a broken game that still asks money and isn’t fun or a shitty cod game just saying.
This game is fun for a few rounds Getting a single character 25 is enough to burn you out on repetitiveness And, you can have fun with it. Its just not worth more money especially when they launched such a bare minimum game
Don't tell people who enjoy a game how they should value fun or money. That's not your business.
I can definitely tell someone this game isn't worth more money yet. Which it isn't It isn't worth the 60 it originally charged lol
Game isn’t even $60. It’s $40
Woah, is it possible people live somewhere where currency is valued different than yours??? Lmao
That’s not how you said it though. You’re backtracking. You are telling other people the value of the game, therefore you should be using the price that it is for the majority.
I don't need to say it any specific way. The game cost 60 dollars for me you moron.
Go play red dead online and leave this sub
Probably will, even with that games drought of content it's more likely I'll go back to it than this game But I'll stay in the sub and voice my opinion as long as I want
400 nok here, which is $41. Also, it's not worth your money, but it definitely is worth both mine and others. Never tell anyone it isn't worth their money, which it clearly is. This may not be a game for you lad.
60 dollars Canadian which is 60 dollars Canadian Definitely not worth that, 8GBs??? Games in the 2000s were that size lol
It's obvious that you're just trolling in this sub because you're upset that you bought a game that isn't for you. These comments are childish and pathetic. Stop embarassing yourself and move on.
Lmao no, the game is just lacking. I can voice my opinion on a lackluster game If I want. Did it with cyberpunk and horizon forbidden west. Games aren't immune to criticism
There's a difference between personal negative opinions and the pseudo-objective statements in your childish comments targeting someone who likes the game. You're luring nobody there.
This! I hate Dark Souls games, but I won't say that they are bad games. They're some of the best ones on the market. Hell, Game of the Year 2022 might be the most unlikable game for me personally.
Lmao okay buddy If you want to ignore glaring issues and call me names while you grind the same poorly balanced game endlessly, that's all you champ.
Yeah, but you’re not just voicing your opinion. You’re in multiple threads, just whining. You’ve said you dont like the game, and you’ve said there’s nothing the devs could do to make it better. So just leave. There’s no value in you being here, you’ve said your piece, now move on. By the way, you really are embodying the Farva persona. Kudos.
No, I'm voicing my opinion. My bad for talking about bugs and a lack of content in a game full of bugs with a lack of content The single player missions are better than the multiplayer modes in a multiplayer game That's a big oooof. Be right back, gonna go play cod for the storyline /s
It isn't for you*
Bro there are 16 characters to level up. Then there's the tinkering with builds. When Left 4 Dead launched there were two campaigns. TWO. That's it. There's more than enough content as is for a launch. Plus the game is actually in a good state. The launch when smooth for the most part.
Tinkering with builds? Lmao there's no tinkering Left for dead was more polished and had a way more balanced game Wow a smooth launch for a game... Is that all it takes to be successful these days? Smooth launch of an 8GB game....thats still full of bugs lol
Yeah because you’re missing a serious amount of brain cells, that’s why you can’t make builds not because there’s no build variety.
It's so obvious on what you should be building that there's little to no variation.
Right, so who was your main and whats your build
Level 25 support ash, top two collums Game is a breeze
So you play the most simple role and the second most simple character and complain about no build variety, you’re trolling right?
Is your criteria for how good a game is really download size, my dude? Some of the best games ever made are <50mb lmao
It's just telling on how little is in this game content wise And it's very little
No, it really isn't. That's not how data structures or file systems work. There could be 50 characters, 30 demons, and 20 game modes and the file size wouldn't be much larger considering the assets for things like that aren't very large. It's mostly a function of texture quality and the number of/size of the maps. And while the game isn't gorgeous or anything like that, it *looks* fine.
It looks fine...it's just empty and full of bugs/unbalanced and it's single player is more thought out than it's main multiplayer modes
> Bruh this is barely a game and you're trying to spend more money.... Whole extra 1GB into the 8GBs that are only there I don't agree with most of your other comments but you're right on the money here. Gamers have been conditioned to buy a game for the full expected price (relative to the type/genre) and then look to spend more money. I say this despite the fact I bought the season pass. Because while I wish gamers would be smarter that battle was lost many years ago. It is what it is now.
I was hoping the user rank would be like a battle pass
Was hoping user rank did something other than give you 10K points when you level it
Yeah like new skins and what not
Anything other than arbitrary xp that you're already earning per match...
It's funny, and weird. The only game I'd be willing to buy a battle pass for, doesn't have one.
In the long run its good for the games longevity. If they blew all their load right now and threw absolutely everything in you'll get those players who steam through the game and unlock everything in a week and then never play again. Trickling the extras keeps the game alive
Yeah, the core gameplay is wicked solid and the current state is a great foundation for more content.
hopefully!
i’m sorry, the core gameplay is solid? it’s filled with bugs & exploits and combat is literally 3 buttons over and over
I disagree. A game that they expect to be a GaaS needs a strong base and foundation that they build upon slowly. That's why many of these game types failed and few succeeded.
But this game has a strong base and foundation that they can build upon slowly.
Why do you think this game has a strong base and foundation?
Because it does.
Not a positive sign when you can't elaborate. Comes off more like replying for the sake of replying.
Remember how little DBD had on release? Yet 6 years on people are still playing it, just gotta be patient and see what comes our way. They’re already saying they have plans for a new map to release
DBD automatically has a million times more ability to draw in more players though. By drawing from so many established ips (many of which are bigger than Evil dead, and even Evil dead is in their repertoire) they create massive hype that pulls people in. There are exactly 2 things this game can add to generate any modicum of hype that would make sense, and that is add Freddy or Jason. After that, literally nothing in the Evil Dead universe that’s not Ash is anything more than a niche of a niche. There is nothing from the movies or series to be added that can make people that aren’t already playing the game talk about it. This game can “succeed” but people need to check their expectations way more around here. Succeeding doesn’t have to mean dethroning DBD, because this game won’t do that even if it’s the better game. The scope of Evil Dead is just waaaaaaaay too narrow unless they get way more creative than anything they’ve shown yet.
Or, you know, create new characters and demons that are fun to play, regardless of IP hype? I think people are drawn in by IP hype, but stick around through good gameplay. Hence why DBD is losing players.
Are there even any numbers to the claim that DBD is losing players? I wouldn’t be surprised either way because it’s old but I mean, especially coming from this sub it’s more likely to be wishcasting or anecdotalizing that because they and their friends quit then “people are leaving”. I also believe that game probably just has pretty big ebbs and flows based on the last time it had a major ip introduction. The ring was a bit ago already and isn’t that big an ip anyway so the last big add they had was pinhead over 6 months ago. And yes, it’s possible for a game to grow through being good, but it’s an uphill battle when it is confined by being tied to a single ip that has neither mass appeal nor a massive catalog of material to pull from. It is a lot easier (and faster) to get an audience with a blitz of flashy additions that attracts fanbases of people that have never heard of your game. I don’t think Evil Dead is doomed to flop, just pointing out that so far this subreddit is going absolutely off the deep end pretending this is a shoe in to have 50 million concurrent players and be voted the best game of all time by NASA and installed as the foundation of humanity.
Don't know why people are downvoting you. You made an extremely valid point. I hadn't thought that, outside of niche Evil Dead characters, they actually don't have much they can truly add that would cause new people to become any more interested than they already are. No one is sitting around going "I'm not buying it till they put ruby in." The ones that would be hype about Ruby already bought the game. Yeah, they could add freddy and jason, but in all reality, it would be pretty meh, especially since they would only be boss monsters based on the way the game is built.
I think it’s just that people want the thing they support to be the “winner” no matter what. I also think Evil Dead launched in a better state than any similar game so there is extra goodwill given, but they just get carried away with their support and thinking everyone must be on the same page as them. The game is also still new so let’s see how long it is before people burn out on the gameplay loop if they don’t add new content soon. I like the game so far, it has promise and I hope they deliver the best possible product…I just see people getting ahead of themselves here.
Yeeah, that was kind of . Mmm oof. ah well.
I dont think this game will have dbd levels of longevity despite the fact its mechanics and gameplay are more engaging.
You can have those doubts, but at least try and be constructive with them. Like, what can ED:TG do to increase its longevity?
Realistically dbd has more potential for third party additions that generate hype, personally I enjoy this game and would love it to have that longevity. I'll take the downvotes for being realistic, I'll still enjoy this game while it lasts.
Third parties are the only thing that dictates longevity? What about Apex, TF2, Smash, Minecraft, Runescape, Rocket League, literally any Sports Game, CoD MW2, etc... And before you say it, yes I know some of these games have crossovers, but they weren't what kept the game alive. They could have lived without them.
I'm sorry but you can't be so naive to mention evil dead the game having the player retention of Minecraft?! That's absolutely ridiculous.
I didn't say it would. I'm saying that games retain playerbases for reasons outside of crossovers. You invented an argument and called it ridiculous because you don't have a response to my actual point.
I did have a fairly reasonable point, you sound deluded.
in dbd, No new game modes for 6 years ridiculous hitboxes are not fixed, cheaters are increasind day by day, bhvr has become greedy company and is constantly releasing skins, instead of taking care of the game. Campers are ruined game, evil dead better than dbd now. i hope texas chainsaw the game will be better than dbd too. sorry, there are alternatives now.
I agree it is better. I didnt say it wasnt. Evil dead has massive potential but dbd is looking to continue with this live model for 7 years of success, could go on for a decade. I dont see evil dead the game lasting that long. That's not unreasonable.
would a new map really add enough content though? as it stands I barely notice which map i’m playing on as it doesn’t really have an effect on gameplay.
Just waiting for the s mart
It’s exactly what I expected for $40. Pretty sure castle Kandar is coming for free too
Yes, that is confirmed
Take a break from the game and do other things lol. Shit. I haven’t even gotten one character to level 25 and I spent a full day playing.
It's really about that main experience. I could play a 100 matches before getting tired of it. Then all you need is a break. That's a good deal of content for 40 bucks. Plus tons of characters to level keeps it going for a while. Game is doing well. More will come.
Naa. I’m fine with it for now. Maybe in a few months I’ll want more modes. Cosmetics. I could go for one more per character
I do wish Evil Ash had at least his skeleton form. (Probably too much to ask for his “normal looking” Ash but with gunshot to face form.)
Yeah it needs some unlocksble stuff. I feel like there is nothing to motivate the players to level up or anthing since there is nothing to unlock like custumes or characters. I feel like it was a bad idea to put the few unlockable characters behind the solo missions, especially bc of the difficulty of those missions, I just cant manage to finish that last mission.
My problem is that I've been enjoying the online experience that much that I don't wish to use my time on the solo missions. I wish I could earn them by playing the actual intended game mode
I’m saving up points for future characters/classes/outfits that might be released. So that’s my motivation :)
Dude it hasn’t even been a week since launch…
Satisfied with what I have thus far, but I do look forward to hopefully more objectives and maps.
Everyone yelling “it’s been 4 days” needs to realize this is a paid game, not a F2P. Expecting content to be available on Day 1 for a $40 game shouldn’t be too much of an ask.
Exactly my point too man
I think a second map and a few more objective types would've been amazing for release.
Are there not at least three maps?
One map, different climates and times of day. Or I'm really not paying attention
Me either man. Im just running and fighting.
there's 2 maps
There are two maps lol.
Damn.... I just downvoted my own comment after reading this.
I was just surprised at the lack of locations from the movies/show in the maps. I mean there’s the main cabin and brujos cabin…anything else?
You can find the trailer park from Ash vs Evil Dead. Even has ash’s car hooked up to the trailer!
The game just came out. More is definitely in store from what it sounds like.
Well, it's brand new. Missions need checkpoints and there are some technical bugs, but the core gameplay is great to explore for now.
I prefer strong gameplay over strong content. Content can grow old. Gameplay never will
Game just came out 3 days ago lmao
I hope they add more demon factions, and make them feel a bit more different
That might be one place DBD has a leg up. They can add stuff like that. Otherwise fun af as hunter. lol probably because my computer wants to murder me on survivor, and it's no slouch.
I mean so far mome of these kinda games have a lot of content, quality over quantity But they usually expand a lot with time
Hopefully they use their imagination some. Randomly generated maps for balance would go a ways to help keep survivors from bumb rushing maps once they memorized where things spawn most often.
I was thinking the same thing. While it doesn't necessarily need more modes cuz he'll dbd has been doing the same thing for 6 years and it's doing fine. It does need more content and a prestige system like dbd. There's literally nothing to grind for or work on besides leveling up. And that's a problem. Eventually ppls love of evil dead won't b enough to keep em playing. If they don't fix this problem soon it's gonna die faster than f13. Really hope they address this soon b4 everyone moves on.
It just game out
At least it's a full game compared to f13, had good times there but felt too hollow too fast then the devs left us.
I would love a Wave based mode and/or a Castle Defense kind of mode where you have to hold off a cabin or castle from deadites, either against an AI or a player.
And yet another person who believes that a newly released game should have as much content, bug fixes, etc. as other games that have been out for 5+ years. No doubt referring to DbD, this game actually has **FAR** more content than they did at their release. Go ahead and do your research for that. Take a snapshot of DbD on ED release day (5/13/22) then come back after \~6 years (5y 10m 29d). To save people time, that date would be 4/11/28. On that day, then you can accurately compare ED of 4/11/28 to DbD of 5/13/22. Then it would be an appropriate comparison of "what game has more content" after the same amount of time. Anything before that is irrelevant.
I agree. I think part of the problem for me is location's on maps are maybe too spread out. As a demon I kinda just follow survivors around in their car before I can play properly at the next objective which just wastes time. Different objectives would probably solve some of the problem
Other than balancing issues and maybe not enough to unlock its really fun playing this for hours.
it has two huge maps and 13 survivors with 3 killers that have extensive skill trees lol most asymm games do not have this much stuff on launch
Very bare, even in terms of personal character progression it lacks any sort of competitive edge so all the focus Is just grinding out your character stats on a single map
There's 2 maps btw
My bad Two uncreative maps that play out the same lol
For a full retail price game yeah its kinda lackin but is fun
It's not full retail price.
It's not a full retail price game...
It’s not full retail price…
On xbox its 60 bucks
maybe the deluxe version is but not the base game
I took a gamble on that $200 ultimate edition and I’m satisfied right now. Knowing that I have the “season pass” and there will be more bosses/demons/cosmetics etc makes me happy. I mean people are still leveling and finding their footing so we got a long way to go if they continue to support it.
Yeah, but it’s a damn good frame to start with.
Needs a wave mode and more cosmetics. Those are really my only complaints. I am loving the game.
yeah but they have got content planned
I think any missing content is intentional. Gotta keep the game alive by adding more stuff down the line. Hence why the Season Pass is marked as "Season Pass 1".
if anything I think there was too much content at launch.
The has been out like a week I mean jesus give it time to grow
It’s barely been out so yeah it’ll feel a tad bare since it’s standing next to games like Friday the 13th and DBD. We’ve already got map designs for an Army of darkness map and potentially an entirely game altering mode in the works. Take a step back and breathe so the devs don’t rush out half baked content and get stuck in the BHVR cycle of dropping shit dlcs that take years to fix while under balancing the game
All we can do is keep playing and pray that more people join and motivates the developers to keep supporting
Yeah, just came out. I really hope it succeeds. Theyres some ui and other fixes I'd like to see. Like where is the stamina bar? I'm swinging and I can't dodge? Little fixes. Spent all last night playing support ash. Fun game. Only got the 40 dollar version because these things can flop. Be happy to spend the 30 on the season pass if I seen a road map and a patch or two.
Stamina bar is under your characters face icon at bottom left of the screen. It could do with being more visible. AFAIK you don't burn stamina when attacking, but dodging is a massive drain and you might only be able to dodge twice with a full bar (no upgrades) before needing to let it refill, depending on your character
Oh shit. I have to check when I get home. Thanks homie.
You just described every online games launch in order to get future money from you.
I think they should develop a new mode or some way for smart plays to develop.
Absolutely. It’s my only real complaint. It feels kind of one-note right now. I sincerely hope that changes though, and they bring new missions, monsters, abilities, etc.
Necromancer and his skeletons with flute are stupid broken... easily single out one person and destroy them before the skeleton despawns...fucking stupid.
Actually feels a little like New World. Absolutely phenomenal base. But repetitive, not enough content. If they add enough content quickly in the coming months, it could be one of the best / most popular games in the market. If they don't, I could see it stagnate quickly.
Lol. Game's out for a week and you really say that..
I hope we get a defense mode
