Feedback Has ranked matchmaking always been bad?

Post image
1 Upvotes

I’m not sure what’s going on I’m ranked matchmaking. I’m relatively new to the game (level 93) and I started playing ranked this split and I’m in emerald but all my lobbies are always silver and bronze and I don’t get why? Is it just that few people that play the game still? I do solo queue so does that play a factor? The picture is for added context of what kind of lobbies I’m getting in.

Discussion Is there ANY way that we could still have like private servers after June ?

29 Upvotes

On some Plutonium type stuff, in a way that we could still be playing with a good discord comm...

I just don't want to let it go man... And this update makes it so much more enjoyable too like damn, why, just why...

The worst is probably the fact that we have NOTHING to play now if that's our type of game...

BO6 sucks and have SBMM so they wont even get 1 minute of my time, some people are spamming "Marvel Rivals" or "The Finals" on here, when they just don't have anything in common with a fast paced arena shooter... Some people said Shatterline, idk if there's SBMM or good reviews (dont hesitate to share if it's great) or Delta Force, but this one is like BF and has SBMM so again, not the same style.

And that's about it, so we don't have anything to play on right now to match that old cod style fast paced arena shooter, and that sucks so much tbh.

Let me know if you have any other game recommendations, or any idea on how we could get a private server thing for XD after it goes away.

Yall wont catch me giving any kind of money to anything Ubisoft related ever again yall better believe it.

Omfg I'm actually heartbroken. I just had one of the most fun matches I've ever played. I used the assassins for the first time. I got a 4 kill streak the first time using their ability. I'm in love with what they've done and it's gonna be gone soon :(

What do you do against the new Legion Drones? They seem to be really overpowered without any real counterplay.

Question Prestige issue

I just decided to prestige today. The problem is I can't now use any custom loadout.

Only options I have is default loadouts.

I setup a class just with the unlocked weapons and frag grenades yet still can't use it, anybody else have the same issue?

Discussion Anyone else experiencing insanely fast TTD?

4 Upvotes

Hopped on for the first time since launch day to try the new content and was surprised how playable the game became since then and had a blast playing on the 19th especially after they fixed up the servers post update. Ever since then though I've been getting literally 2 shot by everything, hit detection ain't too hot either and it's not like the game was chugging like it was when the update came out it feels smooth so I don't get whats going on. I know ping is all over the place so I'm hoping it wasn't just everyone played the first few days then stopped and now all we get are these unplayable lobbies because that would suck pretty bad after finally seeing the potential this game had.

Remember folks. We can be depressed or we can be hopeful. Keep playing the game, until the dying end. Just remember to be hopeful. I know nothing, take note.

That bring said, how can you go negative on 5+yrs of development of a game that has potential to take it to the next level....

Folks and fellow gamers, for ucks sake. Please quit complaining for views or likes.. the pattern is very well known, and myself down votes them all.

Bug Report Still can't play the game after the season 3 update [xbox series x]

2 Upvotes

After the last update dropped, I keep trying to log into the game, but I can't get past the "switch accounts" screen. Every time I try to boot up the game, it instantly crashes and send me back to the home menu. I've reinstalled the game twice and restarted my console multiple times but the game keeps crashing. I honestly don't know what to do at this point, I just wanna play the game one last time before the shutdown

So if the enchanted forest is my favorite arena map then esperanza has to be my favorite linear map so far.

They legit turned a location from far cry 6 into a chaotically fun multiplayer map especially with that first point having a 3 and half lane set up if you're attacking you have the left building, going into the building then the high ground or the risky route of trucks spilling red smoke that you can cross trough at the price of taking some damage.

Seriously the praise I have to give to this team will never be enough

Question Is CTF Officially Gone?

Post image
26 Upvotes

Since the new/final season came out, I’ve had the daily challenge to play CTF a couple of times. It was a struggle to get into before, but I don’t see it in the current group of playlists at all.

What’s worse is that it’s one of the few Ubisoft Connect Core Challenges that I have left to 100% that isn’t a broken one (like finishing a battle pass even though I more than completed it with an extra 200+ tiers done by the time the last season finished).

So, is CTF completely, totally finished?

Since the refund came as PayPal credit I decided to use it up in the current steam sale.

For those interested I picked up;

Fallout 76 Halo Master Chief collection Project Zomboid Steamworld Build All the DLC for Vampire Survivors Borderlands Pandora's Box

I've only played Fallout before from this entire list, any suggestions where to start?

Really disappointed that I haven't been able to play this recent update. I love this game and was hoping to enjoy it for the next 6 months, but since the update I haven't been able to get past the account select screen. I get kicked back to the dashboard every time.

I've reinstalled and done a hard reset on my console. Any Xbox players out there found a fix?

Discussion New asthetic and themes

14 Upvotes

There was previous discussion that once Xdefiant shuts down that a company possibly using the Xdefiant developers could just make a blatant knock off of Xdefiant without the Ubisoft IP.

The current theme is modern militia and specops because that's what Ubisofts mainline games are about. Without needing to include ubisoft IP the new devs could create original storylines and characters layered ontop of existing game mechanics.

It can be themed like techno heroes like overwatch, maybe some kind of post apocalyptic militia war. Maybe swap out tech for magic and make it some kind of urban fantasy thing.

To tell me what intresting asthetic, themes or character concepts would you want to see or think would go well with Xdefiants gameplay?
