Level Zero: Extraction

Level Zero: Extraction

1.0 launch means the end is soon
Game is hugely unfinished and not fun, game has zero playerbase and no reason to be 1.0 which means they're 100% shutting down development for this game soon if not shutting down servers entirely.

Sucks because I enjoyed the Beta and heard it wasn't like the Beta, hence to why its been so negative.

i never played the beta but i seen people in discord saying it was an entirely new game hence the "extraction" in the name. i never knew about the game in beta testing honestly.

I miss the lights being off and lights actually burning aliens into dust. Having everyone use guns just feels...generic. I'd go play other games for that.

So they removed a feature that actually made the game scary? When I played with my friends, the sense of dread would hit us as soon as the lights went out, how are aliens kept at bay now? Do you just shoot them?

The developers didn't have the chops or perhaps the desire to craft the game as originally intended: a co-op experience. Instead, they leaned on human interaction (PvP) and the currently popular extraction mechanic to create challenge and tension, which isn't bad per se, but does require unique characteristics in order to stand out within the market.

Not satisfied with upping the ante for themselves in the PvP market as a small studio, they also made the aliens playable by humans, which, in terms of balancing, feels like a masochistic choice. They should've worked on streamlining alien AI so it functioned as a relatively unpredictable environmental hazard and battle-swaying factor.

Overall, a good concept that didn't pan out. It's a tough industry for sure.

agree, from the trailer and steam charts alone they 100% just added a merc only mode to appease the 30 or so sweats that love stomping on the new player(s) that come in every so often. shame to see how the game progressed to this point; they struck gold in the beta days.

the problem is they listened to people who didnt play the game and no matter what wouldnt play the game. hence the, "lights always on", rushed aliens gameplay, merc only, etc. they only took "constructive criticism" from yes men that sat in their discord and defended the dumpster fire. thats why the game went off the rails and why no one plays it aka the minority that cries out louder got what they wanted while people who actually wanted the game to be good got muted or banned because they didnt "follow" ToS when the lead dev doesnt even follow ToS.

Incredible fumble, im baffled they ever thought their game was special enough to stand on its own without fighting in the darkness and hitting light switches when the aliens come. It's clunky at best movement, guns, melee, and a watered down extraction shooter in every way

Delusional devs adding in a THIRD MAP when the second map gets no play time. Crazy

Focused on booster stims, guns, weaponry nonsense

had to find a way to make gunplay in the dark work without gamma abuse, but they gave up instead, made ray tracing essentially mandatory for some reason while doing nothing to combat brightening filters
The problem was that they perma buffed aliens so much mercs didn't want to play anymore, and alien players weren't able to find any games because there weren't any more mercs to fill in the slots. This has led to the lighting changes that literally everyone hates and now the game has less than 30 players if even that according to Steam Charts.

This is why developers should NOT listen to the same 5 whiners that spam complaints on both the forums and the Reddit.

they listened to yes men that whined though and banned anyone that gave good ideas and were critical of the game and the devs. now that all the mods have turned on the devs nobody gets banned for anything and even the mods talk ♥♥♥♥ about the lead dev. they literally took everything that made this game unique and took it out and said 1.0 here ya go to close development and turn the servers off 100%
It looks like Beautiful Light has a similar mechanic to what this had in the beta (playable humans vs playable aliens with NPC monsters), but it won't be released for a while. Hopefully it will fill the niche this game promised.

yea. word around the block is thats why they changed this game from what it was closed beta to what it was EA launch. ole lead dev seen the discord WIP of that game and tried to steal their idea and released a dumpster fire instead of doing their planned vision of the game. at least thats what i was sent from people of DMs from the lead dev.

They had warnings about this exact thing from testers that went ignored, Tarkov refugees were the loud majority of testers after joining after the initial tests (round about the PvE mod cash grab with Tarkov) and were unfortunately listened and catered too.

As soon as they went EA and went this route I knew it was over and left the discord, there was no hope for the game to follow what was a cool premise of one or two player aliens hunting players and the light mechanic, with some more love and polish the alien could've been a real horror element that made the game stand out, instead we got this generic extraction shooter and the people that convinced them it was a good idea jumped ship anyways.
