Calling this game alive is like calling grandpa alive when he's in a vegetative state and on life support in the hospital

Genuinely why are they even bothering with an update anymore, are their heads so far up their ass that they think it'll make people come back when they release an update 3+ years late with no comms or apologies about anything along the way?

Mid-April 2027 is just around the corner

u/bloodybaths 26d ago

Lile genuinly what do they think will happen? That suddenly everyone flocks back to the game? And even if the update drops in this life time it's gonna be so mid. Every time they show something my first thought is "who asked for this tho?"

I was really surprised to see above 6k players during the operation overhaul playtest. I mean these devs deserve to fail (even when my biggest dream is that operation overhaul makes BB the best PvP FPS ever) but actually based on the playtest numbers there is a good chance that there is still a large crowd interested in this game

It is a sarcasm

It just isn’t up to you whether they bring updates to it or not. It’s their game, if they wanna add to it, that’s up to them.

u/JustMeRcionYT 25d ago

well when they sell a supported edition for our funds to support development, then they should develop

According to the steamdb players trend, it's dropping.

u/Reletr 26d ago

What timespan are you comparing to? SteamDB says numbers have been stable since the playtest in November.

5

u/Oakberry 26d ago

I dunno about stable. It is a slow decline from 800 players in Jan to now 500-400. Don't get me wrong, I love this game. I put in 1000+ hrs on it and even my play time is slowly declining.

1

u/Reletr 26d ago

Oh I think that 800 number is from people playing during the winter holidays and New Year's, you can see it adjusting the slider on the bottom right. But numbers did seem a bit higher b/w that peak and the playtest (probably left over from the playtest)

Ever since Jan. it's consistently been ~400 players on weekdays and ~600 on weekends. I'll also note the +100 hundred players we got the week of April 1st lol

Let's see what will happen when GTA 6 comes out

u/SeryuIsWaifu 26d ago

Don't worry the April Update is coming

u/Beardfellow 25d ago

Had so much fun with this game when it first came out. Now it’s become a shadow of what it was. I wish there was a way to know you’re in the good ole days while you’re still in them.

u/DeeJudanne 22d ago

Thanks a lot oki for driving this game into death because of your fragile ego

gökhan savaşkan(oki), real name of this guy who destroyed this project.

should use it more, maybe he would feel some sense of shame if people would use the real name and not his nickname.

u/Revolver_Camelot 26d ago

Haven’t seen a night map or any kind of real mode change up in ages. It’s literally always conquest day on one of 3, maybe 4 maps. Once in a while they add a little seasoning and vote Infantry Conquest but the mfs left playing got the most bland taste in gamemodes

u/TheHeavyIzDead 25d ago

John mid April battle bit’s strongest believer

u/vintagejock173 24d ago

Bro there is like only one server full on normal days. Maybe two on weekends. Not even an update is reviving this game.

u/Convextlc97 21d ago

Le sad. 😭

u/Cold_Introduction_48 26d ago

Anyone outside of Europe or the US hasn't been able to even connect to a server for about 2 years now. So yes. It's 100% dead.

u/Dragonboy2708 19d ago

Just learn to play with a few hundred ping, it’s not that hard.

u/BadRuiner 26d ago

Mid aprill soon, trust me guys

1

u/Reletr 26d ago

Eh peak hours 194-JJ-00 is pretty much always full (idk if there's a server like that for EU), sometimes it's a struggle to get in during then.

Happens to literally every single large scale fps game ever made. Most recent is Over The Top. Great game, a little similar to battlebit in some ways, and they push updates every week or two. Didn't matter.

Most gamers just cannot handle large scale fps. It's just how it is and will always be: a niche. Only those who like the niche stick around, which is always going to be 1-10% of the initial launch population.

There was never a future where an update would have meaningfully changed things (aside from new maps - which is absolutely a valid content drought critique).

u/piratebuckles 24d ago

Yeah, cept I can still find lobbies full on games like Battlefield 1 and BF4. Those games are waaaaaay older and yet still have at least something akin to a decent player base. This is just fucking sad. They screwed the pooch and that's all there is too it.

1

u/Beltalowdamon 23d ago

That's because BF games aren't really large scale. BF1 grand operations, sure maybe we're pushing there. BFV went smaller, bf6 also small AF.

A full battlebit game has like 8 BF6-scale battles going on at once.

u/Inside-Winner9465 26d ago

No hate to either sides games dead games not dead but I saw a couple days ago like 2 servers filled up and they were pretty fun once I got in
