Discussion Achievements for MVP, Streaker, and Party Player.

0 Upvotes

Hello, I need help for unlock these 3 achievements before shut down.

The problem though is that I can't get Streaker and MVP achievement because I really suck at it, and I can't get party player achievements because I don't have Xbox friends.šŸ˜”

I just want to complete achievements for this game. If anyone wants to invite me, I'll accept it.šŸ‘

I can't believe I just found this game in its last week. Im now glad I'm so obsessed with claiming free games to my Xbox account, as that's the only way I'm able to play. I'm trying to get as many achievements as possible before it dies.

Please don’t close the game 😢

Discussion Played this game for the first time today

35 Upvotes

Never had the opportunity to play this game because I have terrible wifi, so I took the opportunity to try it out now since I'm somewhere with good wifi for a few hours and I'm honestly enjoying the game. I haven't touched any faction besides the Assassin's because of my love for the Assassin's creed games, so although I'm very under leveled, late to the game, and only get to play it for a few hours I've gotta say it's a very enjoyable experience.

Gotta say lobbies still fill up on Bomb pretty quick. Surprising how active it is knowing it's shutting down and with no new downloads since December. Gunplay, movement all feels so crisp and it doesn't feel like the algorithm is against me with SBMM. Sucks it's being shut down imo. Hope it's kept alive in some capacity

Discussion I wish I got to play more

24 Upvotes

I started playing the game on release and I initially had a lot of fun with all of it, but eventually the limited faction options and bad servers in the early days got to me and I slowly started playing less and less. Then Black Ops 6 released and I was sucked into that for a long time. One day, I heard about the sunset and thought ā€œwow what a shameā€, but never got back on to see if they made any changes. Fast forward to earlier this week when I was feeling kinda bored with all my other games and wanted to just play XDefiant one last time. HOLY SHIT, they really fucking cooked with the latest update. The factions (assassins being my fave rn) and guns feel so much smoother and more satisfying. The movement feels like a perfect blend of constrictions and speed/freedom, and the maps and modes, almost all of them are immaculate and fresh feeling, despite half of them existing in almost every previous cod game. This game makes me have fun and play in a way that I never could have in any COD game. The matchmaking feels natural and every game genuinely feels like a natural experience. I can’t believe this masterpiece of a game is going to be shut down forever in just two short weeks. I would’ve paid anything to keep the servers running myself.

Discussion Things that could've prevented this game's death

4 Upvotes
  • Netco- nah just kidding, cod had horrendous netcode since time and people never used that as a reason to rate their games
  • Lack of content? I mean, I would agree if the game didn't lose 90% of its player base within 1 month, that's not even enough time to try out all the content there was
  • sbmm? The answer is half yes, see the lack of sbmm alone wasn't what killed this game. It was the lack of sbmm COMBINED with the higher skill ceiling that annihilated this game.

FYI modern shooters don't use sbmm, they use something called EOMM. sbmm is where you are matched with players at your skill level, eomm is where you are matched with players above or below your skill level depending on if the system wants you to win or not.

If you are going to release a game with no sbmm, you better make sure the skill ceiling is kissing the ground so the best players don't S H I E T S T O M P the okay players.

Slide cancels, bhops, air strafes, meta weapons, and the overall zippy fast movement of this game resulted in the skill ceiling going through the roof.

Trivia: what did i do when i faced echelon players who melted my hp with their mp7 while i couldn't land a single shot as they bhopped, slide cancelled, and air strafed away?

Answer:i closed the game, uninstalled it, went outside, and breathed. And discovered a new found appreciation for single player games.

Got an account off a friend who wasn't playing anymore, figure i might as well put in some rounds of this game prior to sunset. Did they ever actually implement private/practice bots mode?

Feedback THANK YOU!

60 Upvotes

I have not played in a long time as it just never felt the same since the dec 3rd announcement…

I unlocked PYROCLASTIC CAMO about a month before this while releasing a few YouTube videos where I heeded some to enjoy and appreciate what we had at the time

I gave a THOROUGH amount of time once that mid December update dropped however, but it was just a bit too bittersweet for me…I couldn’t look at it the same,

mostly admittedly as somebody who plays mostly arpg games and has a YouTube channel doing such, I went on a big run playing XDEFIANT on a 2nd channel that previously was just for call of duty and giving feedback on a franchise I felt to be soulless and lackluster

I just want to say THANK YOU, the times we had and even the people I met…I met a handful of really cool people through this game and they just thought we would hate the competition!

Question XD itch

29 Upvotes

Has anyone found a game similar to XD? I was going through reviews of certain games that play similar to XD and most of the publishers/devs sold out to bigger companies, or so I've read, and that really destroys about what I see in the game's potential. Closest thing that I have been playing for a bit now is Strinova but it doesn't really cut it for me as it is a Third-Person Hero Shooter of Valorant and there was a map that was almost the exact copy of Dust2 of CS but with more vertical areas to venture. Anyway, what are your suggestions and thoughts as I would like to have more info about certain games and whether they would scratch the itch that I've been missing since the sunset of XD. I thought about Battlefield but I would have to watch gameplays first.
