Good. Live Service needs to die almost as much as GATCHA and p2w.
All while anti-woke grifters be like “It must be because there’s WOMZ in it!”.
Games as a service is a scam designed to milk players for every cent.
The character roster for this game looks so generic and boring.
You have the choice of:
-Cylindrical yellow robot (arguably this is the most original and interesting design)
-Woman with puffy sleeves
-Woman with box on head
-Man with goggles and winter jacket
-Old Woman
-Woman with pauldrons
-Generic Woman
-Green woman with ears
-Man with hat
-Pink robot
-Mushroom
-Green man with shit on arms
-Woman with sphere on head
-Blue and Red man
-Generic Man
-Generic Woman 2
Like, I’ve hardly played overwatch but at least I can tell from afar what most of the characters do from looking at them. Clearly, in overwatch, Giant knight with hammer is a melee tank, clearly the ninja guy with the sword is mobile and and has some melee ability, clearly the lady with the sniper rifle is a sniper, clearly the angel is a healer, clearly, the lady with the jetpack can fly and is support, etc.
Applying this logic to concord, the BEST I can guess is that Woman with pauldrons is a tank, otherwise the design is so ass, I really can’t even tell.
Get a design department and/or let them do their job Sony.
You know how E3 and other game expos used to have these people dressed up as game characters that company stands would hire to promote their games? All these characters look like that.
All the complaints are valid, but I don’t see the relevance in talking steam stats on what is primarily a Playstation game.
Still, when the servers are inevitably shut down in 6 to 9 months, I’m sure both players will be very upset.
I saw it on the shelf at a store, Googled it and was like “Live service? NOPE!”
I played the beta and was kinda excited to see it released. It wasn’t the best game in the world and felt very generic in some aspects. But less than 700 concurrent players is just ridiculous. That’s less players than most of the half baked, asset swapped, copy cat games that release into early access on steam and get abandoned in less than a year. I know Concord isn’t the next big thing and has a lot of problems. But if you can tell me why games like Vigor, The Front, and Deadpoly (All on steam) have higher player counts I’d be dying to know. I know Concord got hit with the hate train, but this is just confusing. I’d rather play a generic new hero shooter over another generic early access survival crafting game.
I think people just expect hero shooters to be F2P these days. At the same time $40 may be expensive but that would only get you 1 or 2 skins in a game like Overwatch. Not only that but Overwatch used to cost about $40 and nobody gave a shit back then because you could potentially get all the skins in the game for free if you grinded enough. Nowadays if you want all the Overwatch skins in the game you’d have to spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars to get them all.
I wonder if they made more money from the $80 controller than the $40 game because of how cool the controller looked (in my opinion). I bought the controller knowing full well I had no intention of buying the game
Well the fact that it doesn’t even have the name of the game on it and the fact that it looks cool would be a pretty good selling point. You wouldn’t even need to know or care what the game even was.
The name is actually on the back, but yeah, probably a good choice you don’t have to look at it constantly
It’s a $40 live service game that is borked on Linux. For as long as this remains to be the case, they can get fucked.
