Im scared to get this game again

[Donald J. Trump]

I'm kinda scared to get this game again, hopefully it goes on sale during summer sale. Even still, people keep saying how the game is going to die. Is it going to die? Just a tip though, talking about a game dying makes it die faster because it deters new players. I am asking what is on a few prospective buyers minds.

I strongly do not recommend purchasing this game. Cheating is increasing by the day and the game runs like crap..... yet they are putting the game in full release..... money grab. Save your money.

I for the life of me cannot believe they are pushing an Eastern Front. That above all else is what should concern all players who know the game well the most. If you ask people who have been playing this game a long time you will see majority are increasingly disappointed with the last 2 updates, are on the fence of sticking around or are already gone.
The game is dying on the inside and the dev's are putting makeup on the body and new cloths. The fundamentals of the game need serious serious rework. As in scrapping entire aspects of the game and starting fresh. Idk if devs seem to think they have reached the point of no return and are hell bent on making these mechanics work but that is the message I get. Pushing the game out of EA and adding Eastern front in it's current state absolutely baffles me.

They are rushing the Eastern Front because the Console port of this game was announced by Team17 already. That console port announcement came right about the same time Enlisted announced it was going into Open Beta - which will directly compete and take potential sales away from the console version. They're rushing to get content in the game because of the Console port. Its why the PC version is having major bugs and core systems be ignored.

Honestly those talking ♥♥♥♥ about the game on the forums are in the minority. I've been here since the Kickstarter and while the game has some bugs and so forth pre Update 10 it's still a fantastic experience and bridges the gap pretty well between milsim and casual. I'm about 800 hours in since day 1. I've played more since the last few updates then I did previously. Don't get me wrong there are some decisions I question but as most games that leave EA today they will continue to expand upon a great foundation. (Still hate some of the recent meta changes around capture time adjustments.)

Miller had a legit question and you call him a smart ass? Following the lead of another's antagonistic post? I actually had the exact same question.
I have a feeling you will not enjoy this game if such a question triggers you. Anticipating a negative experience will undoubtedly make it happen for you. That won't help you fit into a squad.
Regular price is $29 so if that's too much for the experience, I'd let it go - there are bigger things you need to focus on before gaming.
BTW, The game is now on sale so have at it. Invest that $7 you save on a headset so you can communicate. That will help you, if you are willing to ask, to learn the game.

Dude, didn't you read the end of his comment. It was mocking the end of my original post. That's why I called him a smartass. You're one to talk about antagonistic. Read your own comment my guy. You said "That will help you, if you are willing to ask, to learn the game." Did you read what I've said in the past? I got this game to learn with a friend. Not so that I could learn it alone.

not dead, a dedicaited but small user base keeps it healthy, very hard to get into games, means new player retention is low, and how long it can last due to that who knows.

Check Steam Charts, check Steam reviews - population is very healthy with tens of thousands of unique logins per day. 1.0 release is coming up soon, game is nowhere near dying.

-35% steamcharts[imgur.com] Peak player population at one time being 4000 as of last saturday. But those are just facts, not opinions. Game will be DOA and you heard it here first.

Why are you comparing to Saturday? Today is Friday. If you compare today to last Friday at this time, it's almost the exact same number (two hundred higher right now, actually).

You can kick and scream as much as you want, but this game is a financial success. And it will only become more successful in the foreseeable future.

Post covid-19 and Summer in the northern Hemisphere have contributed to the usual decreasing player base in most video games. Compare it to other like games, cherrypicking does not tell the real story

Gonna be waiting a pretty long time then. Devs only patch the game 4 times a year and its not likely that you're going to get any serious optimization for at least 2 updates if at all.
