Why not make the game F2P

[TsunamiEX]

You want the game to be dead? lol

[VGD]

Ok cheapskate

[Louco Diamante]

My opinion ok, just to make super clear. Please keep it payd. Cant stand for these grindy "F2P".

But what you devs realy need is to remove the online requeriment. No fighting game should be online only, some of us ony care for the single player or local content. Thank you

Tbh I kinda have a few beefs with this game and regret buying it but being non-F2P ain't one of them, there's nothing more expensive than something that's free, I'd much rather pay the price once for a game than be stuck paying over and over for microtransaction ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Look at this game's current player count. A brand new fighting game.

This could have been the company's chance to funnel new players to their franchise...

Yeah people don't like to hear the truth. No multiplatform release w/ crossplay, non established ip in the fgc, no players, no chance. They would probably have been better off going free with a freemium option (free gets you 1-2 characters on rotation, paid gets you everything ala KI, or even charging per character like 2xKO is going to do).

People who say this is wrong, or won't work, are fooling themselves.

Shame because it looks great, but many people (myself included) won't buy a fg that doesn't have a resilient online community these days.

Just wait though. When Riot inevitably prints money with their game you won't have to make this argument anymore because everyone will be making it for you lol.

yeah I can't wait for 2xKO. very stupid name, but probably going to be a very popular game, especially with the co-op 2v2 features they have planned and etc

Releasing F2P wouldn't give this game a particularly large nudge in population due to the niche nature of the super robot genre outside of Bandai Namco's circle, additionally, Dancouga, Getter Robo, both Mazingers, and Boss Borot are licensed, with the livenseholders of Mazinger and Getter robo specifically having a fascinating distaste for their licenses showing up as paid dlc in any form. (Rumor has it, they got burned by a paid dlc deal in the past). In short, it kinda HAD to be a premium release due to business deals.

? what does this even mean?

[Leebee]

[Diligence]

No way!

[TsunamiEX]

The game is dead, right?

Smoking some strong copium.

To anyone reading this: 50 players concurrent avg, ~100 players at peak hours (pulled straight from steamdb). Enough that you can get matches online if you get in early but don't expect it to last.
