How did this game die so fast??

I dont get it, the only problem really seem to be the price, but to be honest, this game is so well balanced, its honestly refreshing to see a game that doesnt seem too op on one side. Yes humans have power but klowns realistically can fight back esp if they call for backup.

What don't you get?

They rushed this out of the door without basic functionality and a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of issues. Never mind the fact that they removed genuine content and features (traps) from the game because they're incapable of balancing them.

I refunded this mere days after its release because it was obvious that it would lead to this conclusion.

I highly doubt that they have made enough sales to warrant any significant patches in the future.

Let me know when they have figured out how to add keybinds to a PC game.

Everyone talk about "all these issues" but yet you fail to name one thats prevalent or game breaking. Or heck even fail to name any at all

I didn't need any more reasons than the fact that i can't rebind my keys.

All the other issues were just adding insult to injury. From no preference selection for matchmaking to a barebones lobby system where you can't even change your loadout.

Bugs? How about challenges? I don't even need to ask. That ♥♥♥♥'s is bound to still be bugged. The majority of them. Voice chat that doesn't work half of the time. I shouldn't be forced to disable other audio devices in Windows' device manager just to get the VOIP working. Simple ♥♥♥♥ like audio input/output options would have easily resolved this.

Those are just my personal gripes. I didn't stick around long enough nor did i care to discover every bug in this obviously rushed product.

Feel free to read the negative reviews or give the search function a whirl if you're that curios.

ive read many of the negative reviews and I understand what theyre saying but genuinely I dont seem to be having the same issues. Im not saying theyre not happening but legit this game couldnt be running better since day 1 (atleast for me). Non rebindable keys is a bit weird I admit though

Probably the IP isn't everyone's cup of tea, tbh, I really like the killers in TCM, hell yeah Sawyer fam and DBD obviously has like every horror franchise/IP known to man, aka the horror of Fortnite

There's TOO MANY multiplayer games these days. Huge surplus and not enough people to go around.

Back in the day it was just a couple of sports and shooters (COD & Battlefield and FIFA & NBA 2K respectively). There were also fighting games as well.

Now everything is a multiplayer game / live-service title and too many to hop between unlike before. Doesn't help that there's other well defined games in the same genre for this title.

To be fair judging games that are crossplay with console by Steam playercount is never going to give you an accurate picture.

I also don't know why this game launched right before DbD's anniversary event. Everyone is busy farming that and gaining the cosmetics. A better time to launch would have been mid to late July when people have DbD fatigue. Like it or not, DbD players are going to be the primary audience in this genre.

The other issue is Killer Klowns is not an IP that has a huge fandom like F13 and TCM. Those games got carried much further than they would have otherwise due to the IP. No matter how horrible or barren those games get/got, there's always a handful of players willing to stick around and play 24/7 because it's their favorite IP. That's a big reason why DbD experiences exceptional growth each year. They got almost any horror IP you could want.

The game is just unbalanced, and it used to be worse. The popcorn bazooka and bounce caster were so ridiculous that they could easily make any bully squad in this game roll over. However, when they nerfed those they should have nerfed the humans as well. This game turned into a beat em up rather quickly.

Personally, I quit playing the moment people started to discover places where they either couldn't be hit or are generally safe. People that abuse exploits like that are what kills these games.

only one of those i've found was a bug that put me inside the bridge barrier.

if you're talking about the roof of the cabin in the woods map, that was never protected, you could always shoot up there with the charge-up blast raygun. got a bunch of "free" cocoons that way, with people often too stubborn leave, even after they take the first shot.

it's not any singular bug its that there are far too many bugs.

also core features like archetypes didnt work.

also, devs are terrible at communicating.

Not what I'm talking about at all.

so far as i know, those kinds of places do not exist.

again, with the exception of glitching into things, which is not the same issue.

At launch the price was too high to invest considering these asym pvp games, with the exception of DBD, tend to die after a year.

Now, after seeing a decline in players even worse than my expectations, I probably won't touch this unless it is free on Epic at some point.

id say get it on sale if anything. i dont see it ever being free tbh

Yes, it is very buggy. No I don’t think it’s incredibly unbalanced, could use some tweaking but if you’re good on either side you’ll be doing work. They’ve added team preference, which was needed.. the game is around a month old. TCM is coming up to almost a year old, DBD is almost 10 years old.. KK needs time, should it if you’re paying 40 for a game should it “need time”? Absolutely not. Unfortunately we live in an age where passion is void in the industry and it’s about pushing out unfinished product to meet investor deadlines and we either see the developers continue to patch/update the game or they don’t and it dies entirely. Killer Klowns is FAR from a dead game, and to only reference steam for the player base is ignorant. I love the game and continue to enjoy it, but my advice is if you’re interested but on the fence from reviews and such give it some time and see what happens. Everyone loves TCM now but before they started even touching it people hated it as well.
