Almost 3 months already - no additional game modes, matchmaking's still broken!

Totally agree. We don’t need single player mode that much. This is an online exclusive game since the begining and we know it.
But currently I think this is the poorest of all MP I’ve seen in a game until now.
Only one mode, a few weapons and three maps!
To make things worse, you rarely get to play it due to a broken matchmaking, with no lobbies, rank system or any other option for players to reunite and play!

You have to understand some people are just casuals and don’t really give a fuck about this game or GAMES in GENERAL. They just have an overabundance of time to login because the forum is basically anonymous -one time login–and hell they might NOT EVEN HAVE PURCHASED GAME!! Ilfonic!
Great that you setup a forum with absolutely no ID security at all!

Amusing because based on your posts, every day is your time of the month. All I ever see from you is “bitch bitch bitch”

It would be better than nothing. I used to play all these modes with friends. I can’t believe anyone could argue that adding more variety is bad. If they add more modes you don’t need to play them.

Yeah except those games didn’t release half assed and charge for more content afterwards. And if they were unplayable, broken messes then nobody would’ve bought them. But because now Devs can promise to fix things later it’s okay for them to release broken, unfinished games? I don’t think so.

So change the gameplay with more modes? Can’t believe anyone would be against adding variety. The solution isn’t to just leave this game as is. Theres been no real dlc for PHG. They label it dlc but it’s just reskinned classes with tweaked stats. Cosmetics add nothing to gameplay. Defending these things as paid content is what leads to devs continuing to release half built, bug filled messes and not fixing it because they know they can sell you a new shiny cosmetic and call it content.

The old games actually had more maps. I keep talking about them because they were primarily single player but still had good MP. And that MP was just a bonus. They managed to have more maps and modes than PHG despite the fact that MP was not the primary focus of the game. You got so much more game for your money. Anyway I only highlighted the old games because imo they were better value.

Dunno why you’re on about loadouts. How hard would it be in some other game mode to let you change class or loadout once you’re dead? We have had that in games for a long time. I don’t care about xp or vt in a custom lobby. You can still earn that in quickplay.

Ah screw it. Some people will just defend this game no matter what and shoot down any ideas about modes or maps. I play with a good group from these forums and we are all getting bored.

How? How are you going to fundamentally and radically change the gameplay without making a new game? You still are ignoring my other points, but whatever, hang on that cosmetic thing, that will prove you right.

The other games had more, smaller, less detailed maps. I can make a game with ten billion single pixel sized maps, if numbers is what you want. These maps aren’t as simple as slapping together some single player assets and calling it a day. You just bypass the point that a single map in this game has more stuff going on in it than all the maps in one of your examples combined. And again, the multiple modes they have are the matter of changing a single value. Using team deathmatch as a base. Deathmatch, turn off teams. Species team death match, add a third team, species lock each team. Infestation, species lock each team and team 1 swaps to team 2 on death. Predator Hunt, species lock each team. Team 1 swaps upon kill, team 2 swaps upon death. These are simple, basic changes to make new game modes. This is not that game.

Because in other games, most loadouts are just couple guns. We’ve got attachments and shaders, and these things will need to load in, slowing down the game, or they are just loaded in to begin with, slowing the game down. And the XP/V comment was about disconnecting because you’d have to quit if you want to get into a fair game, unless you want to play out the rest of it unbalanced.

We’re not shooting down ideas, we’re shooting down. “Waaah, I want stuff and I want it now” While pounding on the floor.

Releasing trash Pred hunt gamemode would just split up queues and make them take longer so no.
Look at Halo MCC and look what good the “variety” of multiple trash gamemodes did there.
Releasing a gamemode that only a niche group of players bother with is pointless. League of Legends deleted Twisted Treeline and Dominion from existence lol.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they were waiting for steam release to actually drop later content packs much to your dismay.

Won’t hurt FT queue.
Pred mains gotta suck it up or play some FT. Besides it’s just an idea. The rest of you seem to want something but don’t know what. All I know for sure is that keeping things as they are is stupid. Plenty of games successfully run multiple modes. Look at the big shooters. They have all types of DM. Search and destroy, demolition. The list goes on.

You change the gameplay with new modes. For example a defence mode. The FT sets up defences around an owlf base and some preds need to get in to recover a body or something.
That changes the game. Adds variety. Keeps it interesting.

Still no excuse for only 3 maps. Of course the older games had smaller maps. Nobody is denying it. I have played user made campaigns for other games that took 5 hours to complete. Just made by fans. Look at games like left for dead. The fans released tons of full maps and entire story campaigns that in some cases were better than what the devs could make. If one modder can do that then the PHG devs can make some damn maps in less than 3 months.

I am not pounding the floor. Just bored waiting for meaningful content. It’s been months. But go ahead. Keep telling them it’s ok. We might get something good by Christmas.

Is your idea of good eating a can of SPAM? Fan made stuff is always Fan level quality. Normally its sub par. There is no hype train in that arena buddy. I don’t think I’ll be playing this game if they let this shit go to the hands of amateurs. These days its unheard of.

Plus why are you even complaining about maps? We have 3 maps 18 some odd missions. Thats enough meat to chew on for three months. Even if you’re playing this game exclusively since there are no other games worth touching right now.

Plus how can you compare this game to non-franchise games? Its like there is no point to this argument. Are Yautjas featured in those other games like Left for Dead?
Spit on this game enough and you might get spit back on. If you’re not going to support this game…no amount of whining is going to make it better.

Cool your jets, take off and come back when you want to play. We don’t care about you if you don’t want to.

Isn’t the point of the forums to discuss the game? I like this game. I am just talking about things I’d like to improve. You and this other guy in here are the only people I’ve seen who think 3 maps is good. Fan made stuff can often be equal or better to the real stuff. You might not have seen any high quality 3rd party content but it’s out there. And btw. There is a predator mod for one of those games. So yeah. The Yautja are in it.

I mentioned other games because people are defending the low amount of content in this game. It’s called comparison.

Why don’t you fly off as you put it if you can’t handle a different opinion.

Additional game modes would only split the match making. I don’t think there is any asymmetrical game that would risk doing that. Even Dead by daylight, probably the most popular game of this type, will not introduce new game modes.

Rightly put. There is a genre to this type of multiplayer few have seen before and the more you think they are trying to go for your classic MP type game, they are continually striving for asymetrical. Whatever that means. Its genre defining yet they still have a long way to go to define it. And we all are hoping to see the benefits of these type of model.

The matchmaking are fine for me buddy…it’s only been 20 seconds for me…oh right i forgot I’m a fire team main lmao ;) sucks to be pred main lol

This nacho man dork literally says that to everyone that has criticized this game. “Play with Fire get smoked” head ass

Three months isn’t that long, and production wise, there’s a time delay between what we see and what is being discussed, planned and under active production.

I’ve been trying to work out the schedule as we work our way through the roadmap. Have a couple of things I think they might do. Without knowing more about how long each idea spends in each stage of development and what their turn around has looked like since launch.

I don’t think they’re going to try and match the 3 month production schedule of Dbd’s main chapters or the six week releases of cosmetics. So I figure they either keep the 4 month road map thing going and drop the big update the last month… so 3 big drops for maps or modes a year, give or take. Or the next road map will be more spread out.

Either way I’m pretty sure in a year we’ll still have topics like this.

watch like on the 17th they drop a new game mode and fix match making making this guy look like an idoit
