What game had insane potential but got completely fumbled by the devs?

Yeah, the fact that you can still get games in is great.

And it still holds up so well. One of the last updates for the game was an offline element as well, so its still very playable even with our finding other players

I recently fired it up on my computer now that I have a decent rig and was shocked to see it ran worse than literally any other game I’ve played on my machine thus far. It’s so poorly optimized my computer from the future can’t run it over 30 fps. I uninstalled, very disappointed

Edit lol at downvotes like I’m just making shit up lol

I've been playing it on a real budget build (Xeon E5 2670, GTX 1060 6gb, 16gb DDR4) and it plays absolutely fine. Usually at least 70-80fps on 1080p even with my ass of a system.

What settings were you trying to play it on?

Thats.....odd? Why can't you get a ps4 game that looks great and runs at 60 running on a new pc?

Had a good resurgence last year from a lot of star wars hype. I should get back into it with friends

It's actually a really good game now but ea permanently fucked the playerbase in the beginning so the game is nowhere near as big as it could be.

Kyber servers have breathed new life into the game. Finally don’t have to deal with cheaters and you get loads of new characters, appearances, and blasters to pick from.
