But I'm sure you're not coping considering you keep using the word and state the game didnt have a toxcity problem.

I've never had issues with that. I'm pretty sure people just don't like you specifically as a person. That's your problem.

"If the servers worked on day one and they had unit testing and the new player bonus in from the start, the game would of done astronomically better" oh my god so precious. Whatever you do never stop posting. This so delusional I cant believe you actually think this.That would literally solve two minor problems and do nothing for actual problems the playerbase had.

Not being able to play the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game is a minor problem? Being locked out on punishment timers for hours due to DCs is a minor problem? Listen dude, these are the real problems people cared about. Nobody gives a ♥♥♥♥ that you had some verbal internet scuffle with nobodies.

People care about their ability to play the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game, their ability to progress. Whatever you're on about is irrelevant.

The servers are still giving people dcs and no contests even now. Even when they don't dc the match quality and gameplay sucks. Funny how whenever a problem is mentioned like dc or toxicity issues you state you never have an issue and that its something only complainer has an issue with.

But your not saying the game is perfect right... you just cant accept other people's opinions.

But you're not a fanboy... the other guy is just coping. But you're not coping because your favorite fps in decade is hated by pretty much everyone and is getting eos because the other guy must be a terrible person who is pointing out your garbage behaviour that your totally not engaging in.

And your own behaviour which has driven many from the game isn't toxic because only people who disagree with you have problems with the game. But they're all minor and dont matter because the devs fixed all the important issues. Denial is not a phase of the grief cycle.

Player retention between updates didn't improve with those additions.

Because you only get one first impression. If the game is bad on launch, it's bad forever. Nobody cares that they patched it. They aren't coming back.

That is fundamentally untrue, people flocked back to plenty of patched games even this one. If game launches determined success than games like warframe should be eos already because it had some terrible terrible mechanics at launch.

I never had an issue with that even in the network test. I have no idea what people are doing to cause dropped connections. Even now, I still don't have that issue, but I already said that. I've straight up done hundreds of games, even grouped up with other players, with that almost never occurring.

Even when they don't dc the match quality and gameplay sucks.

Nah this is BS.

You've been trying extremely hard to make me 'feel hurt' for like five posts now so yes, I'd say you're coping pretty hard. You don't care about the conversation at this point you're just hoping you find some comment that makes my feefees go booboo.

It's kind of sad to watch, really.

It's fundamentally true. Citing FFXIV doesn't mean anything because for every FFXIV and Warframe there's twenty games that launched, patched, then died because they couldn't cop a playerbase because the first impression sucked, and nobody will remember the names of these games.

SD Gundam Next Evolution launched as a musou, but nobody wanted a musou, so they rapidly changed it into the predecessor's PVP format (which we wanted), but it still wasn't enough to cop a playerbase, so it died.

rip dead game

The fact that you think I'm doing anything to you other than mocking you and showing everyone else how hypocritical and stupid you are for taking now of all times to preach the virtues of the game and pretend there were no major issues is the very reason you deserve mockery. Whether or not you even comprehend whats happening everyone gets to see how awful you really are.

The stupidity and ego of this game's hardcore defenders is one the strongest arguments you could make as to why this game failed. You can not succeed when your core audience can't think past the fifth grade level. By writing that this game couldn't succeed because of a bad first impression you basically admit that the game had so many problems that even with brand recognition of gundam it couldn't do what countless other live service games have done. People werent going to come back because they saw how badly the game was handled and how poorly the devs addressed it... yet you want to claim the devs gave everyone what they wanted. If the gameplay is just so good why are reviews still terrible?

So which is it? Because warframe and ffxiv devs did what everyone wanted it worked. The game that you claim has no major issues while other games some of which had no legacy behind them like no man sky or warframe can succeed but this can't...? perhaps your rabid fanboyism is hiding something? Im sure your implication that people just didnt appreciate the devs and the game enough is going to go over well by the others reading this conversation.

irony of the dude calling me mad writing paragraphs about how not mad he is and how mad i am

hawken, MSGO, SDGO, dirty bomb, MNC/SMNC, titanfall, microvolts, gunz, tribes ascend, etc

[guts' theme (Cut & Looped)]

Such an utter shame how quickly this game went down the gutter. I'd love to cope and imagine now that Bandai has more resources they could work on removing the P2P ♥♥♥♥ in GBO2 but that's a damn big pipedream.

Literally none of those games did as the fanbase asked and for msgo... you do realize this game axed that one right...? And titanfall only "died" due to publisher and hackers ddosing the game. Its back and better than before lol.

Like I dont care how ego driven you are and how mad you think I am, even though its firmly been established i am absolutely delighted by the current state of events, can you like... not dig yourself a hole any deeper? All your arguments are just "nuh uh doesnt affect me" and ad hominems. You just listed two games that clearly disprove bad first impression also titanfall didn't have a bad first impression and I'm willing to bet msgo didn't either. Do you even know what you are talking about or are listing random live service games.

Like who is rage posting here? Dude grasping at straws after firmly failing at logic or dude having the time of his life? You're not going to convince the readers I'm the one who's mad the game I criticized is being shutdown lol. I write paragraphs because this is a forum where you do that sort of thing.

[SkytheShark_01]

its unfortunate to see this game that had so much potential go. I was hoping to play as my favorite Gundams if they were brought into the game, Phenex and Penelope. The devs actually cared about fixing the game but they needed more f2p content

msgo introduced a major stat squish to address p2w/powercreep concerns, introduced units from other eras via rebellion vs order, dirty bomb was gradually improving up to a certain point prior to it's death, sdgo literally had units in the oven with completely new mechanics at the announcement of it's death, etc

you do realize this game axed that one right...?

SDGO NE axed SDGO, then promptly also died.

And titanfall only "died" due to publisher and hackers ddosing the game. Its back and better than before lol.

You have to install a custom client just to get matches.

You just listed two games that clearly disprove bad first impression

HAWKEN launched with the "mech is a dirty word" controversy, MNC/SMNC launched with the tf2, endorsements controversy, MSGO had the p2w/powercreep issues of gold draws, federation was clearly better than zeon at launch, introducing busted ass units like the blue tidal wave of Kampfers. SDGO NE killed SDGO, the PVP game, launched as a PVE Musou, then shifted to PVP to address criticism, then died.

The entire Cyberstep roster has consistently launched with bad first impressions, gradually improved, then died anyways.

Like who is rage posting here?

you

Surprising zero people who actually played the game for any length of time, this was the inevitable result of Bandai's greed and refusal to pivot after launch criticism.

I feel like the Steam Community is also partly to blame, cuz Gundam Evolution is actually the best Gundam game for people who only game on PC. It's pointless to compare it against games that will never receive a PC port, and the fact we did hasn't done it any favors

"No no, it's the consumers who are wrong"

come on now

Has it occurred to the Steam Community to look at Gundam games with a lens of "is it worth your time if PC is your only gaming platform?" instead of comparing it against games that will never be ported?

Given all the lying and deflecting you are resorting to... who is going to believe you?

Just a cursory glance you attribute mech is adirty word to hawken... which is false and hawken had a great launch lol. Your stuff on titanfall is pointless when i can see 400k monthly for titanfall2 and of course you need to download a special client its an EA game.

All I can say is "nah that's a lie"

and hawken had a great launch lol.

https://steamdb.info/app/271290/charts/
8k in feb, dropped to 4k by the end of march, dropping to 2.5k by the end of april

it absolutely did not have a great launch and it dropped to triple digits not long after that.

of course you need to download a special client its an EA game.

>EA game
>servers have gone down multiple times

So the hawken literally had a better launch than gevo. Stopping digging your hole deeper.

Also stop ignoring the fact that titanfall is running fine now that the ddos is over. Neither of these games were hurt by their launch. Even if that were true you'd only be establishing how awful the devs are for having all this info and still making the mistakes they did. And again we are talking bad launches how is ddos at the tailend of the game's lifespan a bad launch?

This is just precious, you have to put down other games to pretend gevo could have been successful if only it didn't have a bad launch. Then you list games with okay launches and pretend they were failures from the start. Anything to cope with gevo being disaster that would have failed regardless.

>56k - launch
>20.8k
>6.5k

even later in evo's lifespan it was managing to at least pull 1k-2k during peaks, something hawken generally can't attest to

in short, cope my g

Also stop ignoring the fact that titanfall is running fine now that the ddos is over.

you can talk to titanfall players and they'll tell you there's no reason to play on the actual servers since they have actual hosted servers and you don't get booted to the menu with every match. saying tfall2 is "back" and then pointing at northstar is just giga lol

Neither of these games were hurt by their launch.
