Can State of the Game actually be about the State of the Game? | Forums

This game is dying. Pull your head out of the sand. The raid was a massive flop. Everyone is pissed they didn't add match making and the raid is messed up on consoles.
So stop trying to be a white knight kid.

please don't post anything to the reply he's gonna post to you in a short while
he's trying to derail the thread from the main topic, which is Massive screwing up yet again at the SOTG.

You'll need to provide real data to support your claim that the game is dying. Otherwise, you're just making stuff up to fit the narrative in your head.

The group I'm doing the raid with is having a blast. It's tough but it's not unbeatable. I get why they didn't put matchmaking into the raid. You absolutely need to communicate with your team to get past some of the challenges. With matchmaking, that won't happen and the experience will be bad and then people would complain about that. Also, I suspect there may be some technical issues with 8 person matchmaking that just doesn't work right in the game, they've even hinted at this in a few of the State of the Games.

I played TD1 on console and a little on PC, I didn't notice all that much of a difference in difficulty. And I play TD2 on PC with a controller and I can hold my own with the keyboard and mouse people I play with. So I don't know why console players are having issues with the raid. Someone said it may have to do with the FPS that the consoles are pushing for the game... that could be it, and if it is, that doesn't mean that the difficulty of the raid should be changed. But maybe something could be done to increase the FPS it's played at on console or something.

Lets see, my whole clan has left. I am sure many here will say the same thing. Safe houses have few players in them and match making for some missions take awhile to even find any players. There is nothing left to do in the game at the moment except the raid which not many are even trying that. I am not saying some many come back with new content but the developer pulled a D1 all over again and many have left for good.

talk about it...
I went through 2 clans already, one on the PS4, the other on the PC.
We can barely get more than 10 players on at prime-time.

So you're saying you don't have hard numbers for the game's player base? If all you have is anecdotal evidence then you really don't know how many players are actually in the game and playing. So you can't actually say if the game is dying or thriving or somewhere in between.

As to your comment about the raid, like you, I have no real idea how many people are looking to do it, but I can see on the Discord servers that there are people actively looking to play it right now.

This.
DarkKnight's sole purpose on these forums is to derail threads and shill till they're locked.
Ignoring him is the best thing you can do.

He's probably related to.or friends of one of mods, or someone from UBI

You can try and make up whatever story you want about me. I get it, the truth hurts and people much prefer to live in their own little lies.

back to the thread's topic, has Massive gave any ETA at all when stuff is getting fixed?
or just some more PR answers?
have they acknowledged the armor glitch, or that gear drop is a dumpster-fire atm?
i won't bother wasting my time only to hear 2 out-of-touch devs be condescending towards their customers.

If you watched State of the Game, they said they're looking into the armor glitch now. The AI fixes will be coming in update 3.1 witch will be released next week.

This SOTG came across to me as some pathetic attempt to solicit sympathy from the playerbase in regards to their broken, buggy, glitchy, boring mess of a game. Yah, SUPPOSEDLY, there will be a patch next week to, ONCE AGAIN, fix their broken AI.....so let's wait & see if they actually fix it this time, and let's wait to see what else they break in the process.

Seems obvious by this point, that all they're doing is repeating the same bs process that they did for 3 years in Division 1. So going off of that, the game should start actually feeling like a complete product around summer of 2020. And anyone giving them another free pass just because EVENTUALLY Division 1 was a complete game, then YOU are part of the problem as well, and shame on you.
