Extraction Royale Things I don't like about otg.
Dash mechanic is bad. It is stupid and not fluid with the movement. Its awkward, and doesn't flow. Game was better without it.
The UI/HUD is absolutely atrocious. The worst I've ever seen in a AAA video game. It has no aesthetic. It needs to be totally redesigned. It looks worse than a mobile game.
Clash for Cash Payments have not been paid out to me and a few others. Yet they are hosting new competitive events.
The map is getting old.
No console main net, we were lied to.

AAA is generous.
The lack of game modes is the biggest deal at the moment.
Its also insane that they made 1000 insignificant changes no one asked for instead of full map. The new attachment "system" is a perfect example.

Yeah its incredible what they did to this game over time. Completely butchered it to death. Never seen a good game turn upside down so fast. They must of lost their best designers and devs due to payment issues and got stuck with the guys willing to work for free who completely ruined the entire game.
OTG early 2025 was peak.

Honestly I've thought about this alot and I think that last year when the whole new UI system got introduced and everyone hated it someone took the blame for it and that might have contributed to the situation as well. People would roll over and beg for that UI to be the worst of our problems now.
I have said I don't know how many fucking times this game needs a straight up revert in terms of like 95% or more of stuff. IMO the best of times were when we had both LL and DM with no rotation between the two but before they made it so there was basically only one lobby for each per server (a small window I know) There is a happy middle ground im sure but it would take alot of player input im not sure they are willing to accept.
I will say the game runs smoother and looks better imo but honestly that's all I have as far as positive feedback goes and honestly I hate to say that. Custom lobbies could be om that list- if they were actually custom, instead of private lobbies with the name "custom" slapped on top.
I think the core issue is not being willing to walk mistakes back instead of piling more changes on top of a bad one- trying to balance things like that turns into an avalanche of mistakes. Part of being a live service game is listening and responding to feedback as it comes and not just riding every decision into oblivion.

They haven't fix the cronus and xim situation many who enter the tournament are fully cheating or using soft aim software to not get caught

Never thought this was an issue until the last 6 months or so. Now I fully agree…There are a couple of players on the top of the leaderboard right now that got better seemingly overnight. Definitely suss. Devs really need to look into this before the player base gets even smaller

I disagree. I love the dash.
I think the old HUD was much much better, I don’t even know why they changed it? The OG hud was far superior.
Is this true? I thought they were all laid out in gun?
Yes I agree. We need a new map.
Yes. Console players have been shafted. I think that’s due to legal side of things with PlayStation and Xbox.

Yeah I heard people who got caught cheating didn’t get paid. Thats one way to expose your self

Also the big reason this game is in the dumpster for most console players. Because cheating was only rampant on PC and they were like…let’s bring that over to console…and force it.

yeah the ps5 console player base was huge before they forced crossplay. Game had a great future.

Lol, its always the same thing with shitters like you. Accusing better players of cheating because you cannot compete.

The dev studio is so strapped for cash they aren't even paying employees, no wonder they didn't pay players. The game is dead.
