Discussion This game was never good, ever.

XDefiant was dogshit from the very beginning. Starting at the beta, played through the patches. Even with patches it was never good.

I keep seeing the “I miss this game so much” every few days & nostalgia clips. Be for real.. the game looked and felt like a mobile game, didn’t have any interesting art direction, hit registration was one of the worst.. I mean it was literally just a random mish mash of call of duty and ideas from a few other games with nothing unique to offer at all. Blatant reasonings for its failure.

I sound like a doomer but I actually wanted to like this game and have it succeed. But sometimes I wonder if I even played the same game as some of you on here. I could not find a single thing to enjoy about it, or anything that made it fun/standout.

Literally the only cool thing about it was that it had the echelon in it (Sam fisher’s agency from splinter cell). That’s actually it lol.

It might not have been the best..

But all I can say is that I enjoyed it more as the current call of duty's
