What happened to the playerbase?

[TUMMY MUNCHER]

Never in my life have I seen a multiplayer game with literally nobody on any multiplayer server.
Hell, I still see people play Halo:CE for the PC, and other stuff.

[Virtual Ocean Horizon]

To be honest, it's not their fault. It's not really 'fun' for a new player to deal with veterans who instantly destroy them with broken and/or cheap loadouts, all in the sake of an easy kill.

uuuuuuuuuuuh Tzero is THE veteran rofl, hes literally #1 at the top of the charts

he means hes tired of newbies complaining that the game sucks, when it doesn't

TBH im sick of people like you QQ about vets destroying people instantly, by saying vets you mean every single player that holding the community together/in place since a year - even zeream is a vet in my eyes
Besides all that alot of us VETS are sick on going easy on tiny ♥♥♥♥♥♥ like you becouse we all know ur gone in a few days/weeks - so rather gtfo now or stfu

PS: Zeream im just in #1 becouse nobody had the endurance to claim it

EDIT: Who invented the stupid definition "Vets" for this game in first place?
EDIt2: Vets doesnt fit anymore, either its just us or some random people whining on the forum how evil we are and that its our fault... so, there are no vets if theres nobody left to call someone a "vet" - we are just a bunch of people in a quite private community

[Virtual Ocean Horizon]

we could corrupt the word, rebel, and call ourselves vectors

And why do they leave after awhile? Because a game isn't fun when you're always going to lose nonstop, die within seconds, and never have the ability to play with people on your level, because of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ like you.

The first 10 hours or so.
It's one of those games.

[The Green Father]

I didn't play in months, tried to get back to it and... nobody on the servers. It's kinda expected at 2 am, I suppose.
Playing against veterans is frustating sometimes, but I can't blame them (it would be kinda hypocritical among other things).
It seems that nobody completes the challenges either. 68 people on the leaderboard for one of them, which I managed to complete without too much difficulty, even though I only played 20 something hours. Don't think the vets are to blame for this...

Anyway, I'll try to get back to this game. See you there!

[BiggieJohn]

I havnt played in a long time but when I did I had a lot of fun. What kept me from playing more was the lack of player base and the game not having many options at the beginning. Not enough customization starting out. This kind of game there shouldn't be anything behing lvls etc. Lvling should only reflect time/performance investment.

[RE:Deemer]

Agreed. The game was best when it was fresh and all the servers were packed, so even if you were a noob you could always find someone within your skill level.

It also doesn't help that the devs supposedly gave up on the game...

[RespawningJesus]

The problem with SV was that the game was simply too hardcore So it scared more players away than it kept. Which means that newer players are ♥♥♥♥♥♥ as a result, since there are nothing but players who know what they are doing left, which scares more people off.

Interesting idea on paper, but executing it was flawed. You aren't going to have a playerbase in a game like this simply due to the fact that the mechanics are not easy to grasp, difficult to master. UT and TF2 have simple mechanics to grasp, but difficult to master. If you can make a game fun enough for new players, but also have the depth to make it so that players have a lot of room to improve in, then you can keep player retention.

Wow, it's quite painful to read people being so negative about this game. It seems awesome I've been looking for some original FPS's for ages. I've just finished my playing my1st Session played training for a bit thought I'd try out TDM or something and 0 population. Ureal crossed with Gigawing and it's dead?...What?

So reading this community the game is buried. If so that sucks. Over all it looks pretty damn good to me. A FPS that's almost an arcade shooter sounds lke the greatest thing ever, spherical aiming seems hard but what will it be like to get it right now and then. Any low level players interested in having some games in the name of science and that thing they calll fun add me.
