At this point they should just start working at Paladins 2

[Juan Punch Man]

Paladins has by far the best system with their loadout cards and talents out of all hero shooters. If they remade the game in Unreal Engine 2 and put more empthasis in solving bug related issues, then the game would stomp any opposition. The player base is there. The game has high potential for a good E-Sports scene. The company should have enough money for a project this big since their other games like Smite are doing quite well. If they made Paladins 2, they wouldn't even need to re-invent the game since they already have all the assets. They could just re-release the content of the last 3 or 4 years or so. They could add "new" characters at a much faster pace which keeps the game fresh for new players.

just go play marvel rivals

[Juan Punch Man]

I did and I don't think it's that good tbh. Marvel Rivals isn't really that competitive.

Please stop comparing MR to Paladins. Their gameplay is nothing but close to Overwatch.

Ying = Loki

Namor = Barik

Groot = Inara

Moonknight = Tiberius

Jenos = Mantis

Starlord = Lex

Iron Fist = Zhin

Jeff = Moji

Squirrel Girl = Willo

Hawkeye = Shalin

Luna = Grover

Marvel characters are closer to Paladins

Paladins didn't die because of the game design. But rather because of trash management. Do you expect people to play the game when servers are not maintained. All servers other than NA and EU are not maintained at all. It is as if only people at NA and EU pay for the game. They started cutting down cost by moving servers around and not maintaining them. You can't expect people to play at 300 ping or in a similar scenarios. So literally everyone stopped playing from all those regions. And honestly I saw this happening 3 or 4 years ago itself. 3 or 4 years of time frame is more than enough to make changes. But instead they went about investing money on new games like divine knockout, smite 2, rogue company etc. And all of them failed.

Not gonna lie, hirez thought they could survive and earn enough revenue from paladins with the people from NA and EU region alone. Well they were wrong. Besides they couldn't fix a lot of issues like games crashing, character bugs, game optimization etc. And now they can't even maintain EU and NA servers. There is no point in playing this game anymore. The only reason why they are still keeping it active is to rip off whatever revenue they can get from the dead game.

And people asking for new character is like duh? I think there are like 40 characters or so already. And it is more than enough. Also adding each new character requires it to balance them among all the existing characters. They should have rather started working on polishing the game and maintaining servers. I do like the fact that they were pushing skins better than other games. They could have just done that. Overwatch runs buttery smooth on my pc while, paladins begins to cause fps drops when shalin draws his bow.

But hey hirez never listened to the vast majority of the community, rather they only listened to all streamers and pro players. And guess what, now only pro players and streamers play this game (I think even they left the game). Ironic as it seems.

Do you think Hi-Rez should sell their IP to a bigger game developer? Maybe that's an option.

[kURISTOBARU]

I don't think anyone is gonna invest in a sinking ship. It is hard to bring back a game from the dead cause people will relatively find a replacement quick enough. With marvel rivals being popular right now, there is no way old paladins is gonna find a spot for at least few years.

[Maresciallo Dirigente]

PALADINS 2 in UE 5.5 and full lumen RTX support.

Of course, we will not carry our beloved skins from Paladins 1 to Paladins 2 due to... HI REZ lack of will and resources.

Too late. Marvel Rivals already seized the throne. Besides, Hi Rez CEO is an incompetent, put all the eggs in one basket and screwed it up.

[furiofuu]

factos

[THE NEÁTITY]

If Smite 2 succeeds and HiRez doesn't die Paladins 2 could be a thing. But the chances are low.

[Maresciallo Dirigente]

Smite 2 is quite bad.

The graphics is so old, there are no optimization ecc. Think that the bell is tolling for Hi Rez this time.

[40 FRAMES LOW]

I wouldnt play it anyway if it doesnt support ultrawide resolutions
