Is this a sign of where things are going?

#1

It is Friday night and there are only 29 viewers on Twitch.
Haven’t seen certain streamers online in ages.
The most popular guy online at the moment has 9 viewers.
There are 105 people watching BRIDGE.

Seems like interest has been lost by the player-base.

Time to start getting things right.

Priority 1 - Fix the game breaker or watch the counter hit 0 by next month.
We can’t play or spectate a game (bugged or not) if we can’t remain connected to it.
All other things comes a distant second.

Balance? We can moan about it when we can actually play the game.
At least we will still be playing.
New content? Can’t enjoy it if you’re not in game.

If your house is on fire, you don’t put more content into it, you put the flames out first.
Save what you have, put out the flames and then rebuild and expand.

They can’t even promote the game properly anymore. It’s pathetic.

They hired Jay Mewes and some random streamer to promote the game on Twitch yesterday.
Not even they could hide how unstable this game is. Got disconnected two times in a row and they just ended the stream. Way to go, Illfonic!

The fans that were actually streaming it for weeks just got fed up with this game’s and its developers continued bullshit like most of us.

I like the house metaphor. I am afraid that Illfonic does not see it this way though. The numbers of PS ppl buying the game are increasing according to Gamestats. From a statistical marketing perspective why should they change their approach?! Answer: there are other variables to consider, which, if paid attention to, I believe could further increase the player base (several already mentioned): bug fixing, a few maps, stability issues: just those 3 would do a lot to start with! I like the idea of DLCs, but without the things I mentioned before it is my belief that the DLCs are just postponing attention to problems.

Honestly the game is just boring it needs more content having paid dlc wont help the life cycle it needs new gamemodes and free maps

Is Twitch really a measure of how good or successful a game is? Because I refuse to ever use or view Twitch out of principle, and there are many thousands of people like me who won’t support that company by giving it out traffic…but I get what you’re trying to say regardless.

Cartoonz made me really want to play this game, his videos were hilarious and he had so much fun. And I have no regrets buying the game, I just have a certain sadness that so much potential was squandered when all the base elements were right there.

yes yes we do, played through it again before hunting grounds came out. Crappy controls but still super fun. Love the story and how accurate it is with the Predator code
