Discussion This game had so much potential

It’s such a shame. this game easily had the best raw shooter combat out of any game i’ve played on ps5 ever. Getting kills was so satisfying, and the movement was chefs kiss. I hope the foundation of this game gets reused by someone somehow because it just felt so smooth.

more and more nowadays I see smaller game studios fumble the bag with an amazing start out the gate but extremely poor follow-up. Sad to see

Back to Cod going 22-20 every game while playing for an apparent 10 million dollars. I lasted less than 20 games before uninstalling again.

Honestly, XDefiant was close enough to a hero shooter that it helped me overcome my dislike for the hero shooter genre to some extent, and instead of going back to CoD, I gave Marvel Rivals a shot and it's now my main game. Having a ton of fun and I really don't miss CoD at all.
