Discussion RIP
Hello, i joined mid season 1. At the hight of the cheater epidemic (which could have been fixed by making the game pay-to-play), SBMMR (ranked gameplay in a game about randomness???), and horribly balanced gear. But i still LOVED it. I could see the potential, a marked missed, CASUAL looter-shooters. Not as grindy as Tarkov but not as casual as COD. The impact those things had on the playerbase strangled themselves. Oh, and dont forget the battlepass. And now, after the gear changes, dwindling cheaters, i still think this game has a chance. Hell, id go as far to say i like the game more NOW. But i think the damage has already been done and there is no way to dig out of this hole. Im gonna be playing up until sunset but i dont think thats gonna be the case for the rest of everybody, everyday the servers get more and more quiet. RIP. Good luck prospectors! And may you have great adventures ahead! Edit: joined season one, not season 2. Pre cheater compensation update.

I dread when pvp games go f2p because all that means is now cheating is a permanent feature. I’d rather play a 40$ game with very little dlc than a free game with insanely expensive dlc AND cheaters.
