The player count only went up for a single day, because the Expedition mode is just too boring. Many players who came back for the update quit after just one day of playing.
Players are leaving in droves, and many are asking:
What’s the point of collecting all these tech fragments? The maps are huge, there are tons of enemies, and after grinding to collect loads of fragments, their only purpose turns out to be unlocking the next mission? It feels completely pointless. Complaints like this are everywhere
Nah thats a genius mode, splitin players across all nodes INSIDE the 3rd mode in the game needs a real talent lmao, Im trying to open all nodes and I barely can find people in first nodes like I have 4/4 team 3 time out of 10
Pale imitation of extraction-shooter without decent loot fails?
shocking /s
If there was a global meter that tech fragment contribute to that, when filled, unlocks 100% stat for players, that might have been a worthwhile addition to the game.
There is a Quickplay button there which I believe can send you to ANY game you could possibly join. Doesn’t have with unlocks of specific nodes that much, but should at least help with finding games.
Problem is the fastest unlock method requires doing specific nodes, and the pity unlock is much, much slower, with most of them not even having a pity system. I don’t know who designed the actual node unlocking but it’s actual trash.
Totally pointless to have so many modes with such a small playerbase.
Should’ve only ever been the main game mode and maybe some event stuff every now and then. This is just so wasteful and extremely bad project direction.
I would hate that… it would mean you are forced to play this mode. And perso, I don’t need grinding to like a game. Or I would not have played it more than 4000 hours
However, the contrary can “help” me stopping playing a game. It depends how it is done.
Also I don’t see the need to have more power creep. We have enough power actually, adding 20% power would be insane.
Totally agree… Helldivers did something close to what Fatshark propose here. We even get a valkyrie that come to extract us.
But, this is really far from being fun. Extraction part is… I don’t know how to qualify it… maybe just not impressive at all.
