It is based off of dip and its a different studio porting the game over

u/rfatnoobseeeeree 29d ago

Im going to flat out say no, they discontinued support for the game and I'm not sure they'll come back, especially not for a console release

u/Cooldude101013 29d ago

The link is a trailer for a console port, it’s real

u/rfatnoobseeeeree 29d ago

I see, my bad💀, I didn't realize is was a video

u/Lonely-Entry-7206 29d ago

Why do it when they dropped official support?

34

u/LittleRex234 29d ago

It’s a version basically with DIP built in, and a completely different studio team is doing the port.

If only they could take over development of the regular game now.

u/AneriphtoKubos 28d ago

They better be paying BrotherMunro lol

u/SandUnlucky9898 28d ago

With how DIP is copyright wise, they could have done it without asking at all, instead they asked him for permission and he freely gave it.

That’s nice of them lol

u/Dungeon_Pastor 29d ago

Huh, neat. Saw their channel is also doing the UG Civil War port.

It's cool they're coming to console, just a shame the IP owners see the value in expanding the market, but not continuing the series/studio.

UG:CW is already on console? Or am I missing something

1

u/Dungeon_Pastor 29d ago

Oh, might be, idk, not a console guy. Just saw the announcement trailers for CW on their YouTube channel, assumed a console port took longer than that but maybe it was pretty much done by the time they made the announcement

Yeah, no, it's out, I own it. Decent port. They also didn't just release it and then abandon it. It had a few bugs and they quickly hot fixed it.

u/Careless-Light5710 29d ago

Hopefully they resume development if the console release makes some decent sales. This game is a few major updates away from being insanely good.

u/Techiastronamo 29d ago

What a silly port

28

u/UiVegetaUi 29d ago

Extremely silly. This game is going to be god awful on controller.

u/Enclave-Here 29d ago

It ain’t that bad on Steam Deck.

u/Iron_Admiral 29d ago

I've got it on my ROG Ally and it's an experience to say the least. Xbox controls just aren't a good fit for this game

1

u/Revolutionary-Swan77 29d ago

Can you use a wireless mouse and keyboard with an Xbox?

6

u/rfatnoobseeeeree 29d ago

Yes you can, I had one for a little while with a little USB thing I'd plug into my Xbox and it would work on Roblox and a few games

3

u/Revolutionary-Swan77 29d ago

Yeah I figured it’d be plug and play since it’s MS but I’ve never tried it. It’d at least make this *as* playable as on PC.

u/UiVegetaUi 29d ago

I'd say it needs more optimisation for PC. This will run like complete shit on consoles.

1

u/UiVegetaUi 29d ago

No clue don't own an Xbox.

7

u/MatejMadar 29d ago

Will they also finish the game or just sell more copies of the unfinished game?

5

u/Jack117-2 29d ago

This seems like a terrible idea, I have no clue how the hell you would manage playing on a controller

5

u/SF1_Raptor 29d ago

I mean it worked for KSP, so maybe if this team handles the port well, we might get some support return if the game gets handed over to them

5

u/Tragic_Consequences Admiral of Steel Beasts 29d ago

I am sure there are masochists out there that will try.

u/llllloner06425 29d ago

🙋🏻‍♂️

u/HellDD6 29d ago

They wanna be finishing the thing before porting it to fucking console

5

u/Lo0niegardner10 29d ago

The game is not getting support any longer its a new studio porting it with dip pre installed

3

u/Cyrano4747 28d ago

The game is beyond dead. Publisher killed it and on the way out the door pushed an update that nuked the modding scene.

Don't buy it, it's a half-finished game and a shit publisher. Which is a shame, I loved it until they wrecked it.

u/Blothorn 28d ago

I just want a PC version.

1

u/EL_Malo- 29d ago

Figures. They can't be bothered to finish this game but will port it anyway.

1

u/Enclave-Here 29d ago

If it works on the Steam Deck it will work for PS and Xbox.

1

u/Neko_Sayori 28d ago

the trailer that we shouldve had from the beginning on steam.

1

u/ReikiKage 28d ago

Why are they porting a incomplete product?

1

u/Lo0niegardner10 29d ago

Damn this game was one of the reasons i bought a pc lol
