Helldivers shines, but tough launches for Skull and Bones and Suicide Squad.
Yes, Ubisoft's divisive pirate RPG Skull and Bones appears to be sailing on the tides of success, as Ubisoft prepares to launch Season 2.
I recall seeing a fairly low concurrent player base that was helped by the free trial (likely the metric they are using internally to push for season 2)
If true, it goes to show that the negative press response was not reflecting reality. I personally thought omitting land traversal was a huge miss. But i also thought there was some things that were great about it. Lets see which story was true and which was made up (or worse, paid for)
No data just pr talk. The same site has an article talking about how the price of the game was slashed quickly post release, these sites treat us like fools lol
They're right. There is no argument either. The game is a turd and Ubisoft is doubling down on that turd. It's all fancy PR talk with no actual substance. I don't know what "argument" you're looking for. I read the article. It sounds like Ubisoft asked for a redo on their "AAAA" "game". Trash game and trash company.
Price decrease articles are typically made to make it seem like a gaming is flopping, they're often poorly researched and meaningless.
The article about the game thriving is also meaningless because it contains no data, it's basically corporate propaganda, even suicide squad is getting a season 2
In resume, not only this site plays both sides, it does it lazily and cynically because they don't care about quality, what they care about is clicks from us ( fools )
@ jb
🤣 all it says is thanksfor the support. It's not like they're saying hey it's better than what you've seen come buy it. Lol you guys will whine about anything
@ Friendly
Gotcha when you referenced the other articles was like... uh doesn't that make it non biased? Basically you prefer stats with these articles or some sort of metric. I'm tracking. All I can say is... not everything is an amazing read or comment on n4g, lol. Game on!
Skull and bones TReMENDoUS ReSPoNSe. Prove it gaming journalist !! Prove it
@InYourFaceHole Use all the emojis you need in order to feel better. Your latest comment is just a "save face" comment. Everybody knows you're a Ubisoft simp now. I hope you got what you wanted with your $190 Rare Earth Metal Ultimate Clandestine Epic Edge Lord Edition.
The real fight begins for Helldivers 2 players after failing a huge Major Order, as Arrowhead ushers in the next chapter of warfare.
If only the game wasn't so barebones. Out of the super fun core gameplay, the game is a barren land. They better make much easier "major orders", because the player base has mostly moved on.
Think people are stupid? What's your favourite thing to do besides lying?
I think that A lot of the player was snap out of existence, after 177 regions was forced to go dark.
In those regions in which they took the game down... that was only for new purchases. Anyone who already bought it could play just fine.
im not sure where u get your numbers from, but there are still a massive amount of people playing ha
I really hope they expand the war to where our foes get to super earth like in helldivers 1 I’d imagine the game by then would have tons of stratagems and the vehicles by then
It’s important to establish both successes and failures in order to make community engagement feel genuinely impactful, and not just a predetermined outcome on rails.
They obviously have a bunch of content waiting for deployment, and they plan to trickle it out at whatever pace keeps the community at their desired size.
The game is still much, much more popular than they ever planned. And antitank mines feel like small potatoes compared to the vehicles and new enemies we know are down the road.
Buckle up for a long term plan.
Helldivers 2 can take a long time to figure out every mechanic in the game, so Reddit users have shared their most helpful tips.
The main tip that I would tell a new player is: know how and when to pick your fights. Sometimes it's better to avoid a skirmish altogether and focus on the missions. And if you are indeed starting a fight, try to end is as soon as possible and focus on the smallers enemies first, because if you get rid of all those bastards then they won't call for backup and you'll have time to finish the bigger threats
Phil Spencer multiplatform strategy: "Xbox continues to struggle with Series S and X sales down 47%."
damn, sales down by 47% for se xbox
im not surprised by the massive success of helldivers, its fking amazing
I read somewhere on twitter helldivers has sold 8million
that is absolutely insane for a small game
So Rebirth did outsell XVI after all. Interesting because its had literally no media advertising in the UK compared to XVI
Yeah, you are better off to quit hardware and stick to Software. Don't you all forget, Microsoft back in the days were the best of the best in games. They still can but they need to quit hardware first.
