Is this Game Dying?

[johN]

I have played a lot of battlebit and really enjoy the game; I, however, cannot enjoy it as fully as I once did since it seems to be the case that the game is dying...the downward trending player numbers indicate this.

[Rat Slurpee]

multiplayer games lose players always. just because its not at peak 24/7 doesnt mean that the game is dying lmao

I guess anything that isn't being hyped for the moment = dead.

[LootMech]

can you explain why your enjoyment of the game is directly tied to playercount/hype?
I have played games with 5k players at the most(insurgency sandstorm for example) and they are still very much alive nad you can get matches and a dedicated comity no pron.
So I really want an answer to my question, can you only enjoy games that have hype or is this the usual "I don't like the game so I try to knock the popularity" post?

maybe just don't look at the player count? kind of a weird thing to care about, getting into a match is just about instant (assuming the servers aren't full)

yes

[asp808]

do you have any idea how many games would kill to have the ~40,000 concurrent players this has as of my post?

[Beercules]

No, people just work for a living and its summer...

[Infinity]

This has to be a joke. No one with two brain cells to rub together can honestly believe 40,000 concurrent players is a "dead game".

Not dead. Just kinda stale? The game seems to of settled into a frustratingly toxic meta around Self-healing medics in light armor zooming around with SMG's who have more effective HP than a Full-Exo support due to said self healing ability being far too easily applied while running at speeds that exceed the base un-armored run speed of any other class.

All while the community makes this weird insistance that this is some milsim game at the same time as they wall-run by spamming space bar along any surface with enough windows on it.

Anyone pointing this out has a skill issue or is crying/whining, etc. No outstanding opinions allowed. You aren't allowed to have an opinion you paid for/pay into the patreon for/bought the support pack for/may of even invested in early in the development cycle of. Only people allowed to voice their opinion must have a 6.0 k/d rating, sweat pure old spice body spray, and be biomechanically wired to their gaming chair.

You must follow this cult-like mindset that the game is good and will forever be good and deserves no criticism despite being in early access and the devs literally requesting feedback via survey every patch.

40k players you ask is it dying? You played battalion 1944 for 1500 hrs that game sat under 100 players for years...

[SgtScum]

If over 42k online concurrently is a dead game then welp count pretty much every major fps dead.

I was surprised to find out there's 19 maps! I've only seen 5 of them on a routine loop and it's way beyond stale. There needs to be rotational servers that just go through the full list with no voting.

Bro only ever played AAA games and think 42k players is dead. X.X
