Blackout goes from being a whole new experience to becoming a grind simulator with PvP after the first week or two of playing. They still have lots of potential to expand the game and keep a loyal player base with what they have so far and I hope they continue to expand the game and make it more replayable.

[@mdviIa]

literally so right, the reason people enjoy crim is because it's SO replayable. Farm up for a few hours, get to 10k, and boom. Too low level for big guns? Armory gamepass You die, get a new gun. Keep killing, make money. That's about it. And it's really fun. Blackout is SO grindy and it feels like a grind simulator (as you said) with pvp on the side. The amount of guns, and the combat system also hurts it since it's very strange to most pvp (crim style game) players.

[@justuraverageplayer_]

​@@mdviIa true, the time it takes me to farm cash in both games I could get a m14 kit in crim and start killing while I'd still be grinding for a m14 in blackout

[@Watercape13]

Most common thing I see in the video is basically the gameplay hurting the game. Yes mass teaming really stinks (crew-adverts channel in the server totally not boosting that) and raids being pretty much a gamble kinda hurt the game in a sense. However silver is actively trying to tinker with how the game works which is a nice thought. They also recently announced that they're adding some rules against mass teaming, however it's unknown when it will be implemented. Not to mention silver recently just posted some polls about making the game more solo friendly, so there's that. We just gotta give the game some time and good feedback, and It should bounce back hopefully.

adding to the video, the game cost 350 robux, which make the game way less visible to people that dont have robux, not saying they should do like a ''casual'' mode type shit but even tho, if the game doesnt have consistent updates, more ways to play (like solo, cuz solo in this game is literally impossible), less grindy and give a replayable gameplay, it will DIE fr in very very soon.

[@Seago16]

level 15 and haven't stopped playing YET, I love the game it feels different from your average street game and crim, but man the grind is so painful i feel like i never truly play the game because I'm either in a small server doing cargo all the time or just doing raids in a small server. while raids are fun you gotta do cargo for a while to get things to do raids. I really hope this game doesn't fail

Yo guys, while talking about blackout's day one playercount I completely forgot to account for people who just played the tutorial and didn't buy the game, regardless I still think blackout lost a big percentage of players

[@theartis5912]

ok let me clear this on first day blackout have all of the feature and gameplay stuck on the mutiplyer that why you can't by blame them by this because it still early access and no one in roblox have like 350 robux to buy this and this player count can't compare to the criminality because it free and it can reach anybody first backout isn't bad because of the content the game has built when it in the first idea of the sliver second you doesn't care about money issue of the game last criminality is dead game no new content nothing just some skin remap and whatever

[@ratsukitheblunderingbuffon]

For me, i think the main issue is just the lack of performance options. Not a lot of players have really good hardware, and this game is pretty resource intensive for those that are on lower end devices (Seriously, 40-30FPS normally, and sometime even 20FPS on gunfights.) That, and the lack of performance and optimization being added on the latest updates, i think this helped in some way the drop of player count.

[@qChronos1]

The game is not resource intensive, the reason we all get bad fps is because Roblox limits your gpu/cpu usage, all we can do is wait for silver to do some big performance update, or wait for roblox to do something

[@tophatlord716]

They basically removed every cool thing in blackout and replaced it with something less fun in my opinion. They replaced the gov. file thing in the sneak peaks to the red crate, and destroying relay stations are not in the game at all.

Yeah those tasks aren't finished that's why they aren't in the game, we can assume that they will be added soon enough though, I want the bunker hacking event back.

[@antynomity]

For a game in early access, I'm impressed and I'm sure the game will grow steadily, because unlike the competition (Cuckinality) the devs actually care and listen to feedback, as in, the next update is looking to be very good. Also it is possible to do bunker solo, its very tight on time though, you get like 10 seconds to use both keycard readers.

[@CivBarcelo]

I'll give blackout credit. They just launched not that long ago, and he put a lot of time into the revamp, which is why the items, features, and updates are slim to none. But the teaming part is inexcusable. People paid and are still paying 350 Robux to get mobbed on by an Army of people regardless of what server they're in. The party system needs revised, the raids need revised, the team aspect of the game itself needs revised. I got it and stopped playing on day 1 because of the teaming. I didn't mind it first, until they started glory spamming, at that point, it just made my mouth dry and I didn't want to play anymore. Great showcase, bad experience.

I was so hyped to play this game. Bought, played and stopped later. The main problem for me is that everyone is seeking valuables and weapons and money. U cant just chill in a "café" with some group. The only thing I see you can do is enter the military, get out, buy ammo, enter again etc. No fun weapons to use. In the end, it's just a infinite cycle of buying and killing.

[@Bingfast]

Blackout was fun when you were able to get cards pretty easily, they kinda killed my joy of farming when they made you have to pay 400 for cargo ambush and decreased rates, rn the game has a huge drought in cards which means less interesting gameplay with getting cool weapons and I believe that portion of the update killed it. Green card is cool and has a BIG use now that the rates are removed, but it's not enjoyable farming cards imo

[@qChronos1]

yea I also felt like they reduced the drop rates of keys, was it a shadow nerf or did they announce it somewhere?

[@why5399]

Personally, I agree with this. I am already involved with a big group of people that play blackout together, and I like to play blackout a lot. But every time I want to play blackout when my friends are not online, I don't. This is because if I do, I'm scared of being killed off very quickly because of how much of a necessity having a teammate is. For example: One time I joined blackout solo, I was attacked by another solo person. As I kill this person, another one or two people show up and kill me. Resulting in all of my stuff being gone, and me losing progress. In that situation, if I had a team, their team would have been held or killed off while I killed the first person instead, and I wouldn't have lost all of my progress.

[@dingus816]

the problem is that to actually count as a ''player'' you just have to be on the main menu / tutorial / game which are free except for the game basically everyone joined for the tutorial and then the people that didnt buy it because theyre not p2p just didnt play anymore because theres no point in repeating the tutorial so they just left

[@Mochi-aoloco]

this is extremely accurate. In my opinion the game is dying because of the tryhard teamers, the ones who just a week after the release already had extremely op guns n gear and they started killing servers and killing new players, the game just became unplayable, these lowlifes literally could wait more than 2 hours camping outside the outposts just to kill the newbie who was looting inside just to see him losing everything he grinded for hours, and im not saying that should not be allowed, in a combat game its always good to have strategies to have a little advantage over ur enemies but this was so frequent with the teamers that people just got enough of it and decided to quit the game

im pretty sure if blackout put in more dying light type parkour like knifes being able to slide u down build boards, grappling hooks only being found in bunkers and having a limited range, being able to fluently parkour around areas while using ur environment to ur advantage would be fun, maybe even a skill tree like being able to kick people off roofs and other shit would make the game super fun

[@SledgeQueen-ru7rl]

Honestly both crim and blackout are games based around terrible playerbases. Both games are essentially built to benefit the players with higher end devices and hardware. For example, people in CS in crim will hook up a keyboard and mouse just to have a cheesy advantage, as well as people with new gen consoles can do better because they have a higher fps rate. Same can be said with pc, the more money you can put into your hardware the better the advantage you have. So essentially, the spoiled are the ones who have advantage.

Honestly man, playing low end with the PvP style I've noticed from blackout is just no fun at all. You could slap a bandage of skill issue over me which I understand but every fight I've played turns into a game of who can strafe, slide and mash the spacebar whilst ADS firing the enemy better. Which my casual had enough of, I've counted my PvPs and out the 19 I've had over the weekends, I've only won 3 of them. I feel like I always get screwed over by one thing or another and at this point I might as well not play the game.

[@qChronos1]

yea the movement in this game is way faster than in games like criminality, I personally have mixed opinions on this type of gameplay because most fights just come down to whoever has the most fps and as we already know, this game's optimization is bad how the hell am I gonna hit a guy that keeps jumping and slide cancelling with 30 fps?

[@thatoneguywasd3454]

[@platypus908]

[@tvdisko]

the main issues is: [1] just that the game isnt being promoted neither advertised at all, it is hyped and "popular" only among retired and old crim players and criminality community especially with old players itself isn't large enough n blackout purely lives off crim players, like 90% of people who play blackout have been crim players at one point and other 9% knew about blackout because of criminality [2] this is common sense but the game is unfinished + paid access, once the game is in its complete state and free access, i can estimate playercount to like average around 1-2k

[@qChronos1]

yea their marketing is fucking horrible, they should hire people like us to make them trailers for their updates

[@applepie1126]

Also one of the problems is because it’s on early access, A lot of players that doesn’t have robux but is a big fan of blackout can’t play it due to it being paid. I think blackout devs should release the game for free asap, as Byron basically fixed every exploit in existence.

[@consiqutor]

tbh i fell like blackout is way too repetetive aswell, like you get max level and what else is there to do, you have a stash full of rare and good items, then like what do you do after that?? also the thing that armor doesnt have any debuffs whatsoever is just annoying, like you kinda need it to life and everyone has it so its kinda just like playing without armor is stupid

[@lillola513]

Maybe if they add console support too, there will be an increment on Active players. About the party system, they can add some npcs to protect you trading for an amount of money like bodyguards heavy armored and ecc. But only 1 npcs at person and it can only be buyed from a 1 or 2 max party team. Some hints..

[@RemingtonIsAGun]

Personally, they should make the game free so more people can play it and more people would be interested. I mean the game is already dying but it really seems fun but you'd just pay roblox for a dying game and when it really is dead and you won't wanna play it, then you justed wasted robux. Plus, not everyone has robux so making it free would be a good choice (even though its still in early testing)

[@Hikuria478]

The game was fun for the first couple of weeks. From there I got bored out of my mind, and stopped playing due to optimization hell. The biggest thing this game has going for it is the community. The game is open to change, and the devs actively look for improvement. However, I also found the sweating to be WORSE in blackout than crim. I would find myself constantly needing 3+ guns just to win a 1v3. It was a constant “down and retreat”. I definitely find the game boring rn.

[@EliseyzScripts]

I think the most logical reason for the player count drop is that all the exited players got only a few sneak peeks and were like: "This game's gonna be fire!" and while they wait they got used to criminality gameplay and expected blackout to be like criminality just with enchanted effects,etc, but in the end blackout became a game with a HUGE map that's not made for 40 players and basically a keycard grinding simulator. I quit blackout after like a week of playing it just because i like the simple concept of criminality and its vibe. Also the BIGGEST problem of blackout i think are gangs. And for example in criminality, you have stuff like rage dose,rpg,grenade launcher to just wipe the gangs. But in blackout these things are as hardly obtained as the 1 shot bazooka from criminality rebel dealer so you cant really do anything to gangs. Also if we even had that type of stuff in blackout,the map is just designed the way to hide and just play on roofs so it wouldnt make much of a diffrence. And yes i am not a crim fanboy,and i actually think blackouts shooting systems,guis,etc are better than criminality. Also the part about fun items is true and combined with casual gamemode it can make up to 90% gameplay of just having fun instead of pointlessly grinding cards just to get more loot to get more cards again... you get it. Basically blackout is a grinding simulator with player pvp.

[@apgaismiba]

Yeah that is so true, when I first played Blackout the first thing that I found out that I have to get used to was the map. It is too cluttered and not easy to look at with all the buses and narrow streets and a subway underneath the bridge. It is cool to explore and stuff yeah, but when you are pvp it is pain in the ass. That is why most battles are fought on top of the roof top, because its not only gives you time to prepare for the enemy to climb but it's more wide and less objects in your way. Personally however, I think Blackouts grinding is less tedious than Criminality. I was able to obtain a full armour kit and some solid weapons at around rank 2 just because I was exploring underground metro. In Criminality, you have to grind all the levels just to obtain these fun weapons and one thing that Blackout beats Criminality gameplay is how you can storage your loots. Meaning, in case you die, you just go to the ATM and get the weapons that I looted earlier and return to combat.

[@sneakysnake9990]

As someone who played black out on the first day and played the game mostly solo i have a some what solide understanding of the games mechanics, pvp, pve, raids ect... For a solo player its absurbdly hard to fight a group with out being fully kitted out, and most of the time you still lose but not as much as going for a cheap kit. The problem is playing solo is gonna be 5-10k expensive maybe even more and if you haven't spended a boringly long ass time grinding xp for levels and for weapons you're not gonna be able to do shit against groups of people with high tier guns and armor. Skill is also taken into account but for newer players ? Its ass... Even for players that are level 20ish its still ass, i've made a couple of solution that could help the solo experience be less of a a pain but still follow the "You can solo but its gonna be way harder". Instead of getting all of your health and stamina from finishers, why not give you 45% hp for downing someone and you get the other 55% hp + all your stamina filled after finishing them. That would reward players for downing people letting them have a bigger chance to fight groups and win against them. But adding that would cause a other problem, what about armored people, simple enough. A piece of armor will reduce the amount of health you get from downing people, tier 1 will remove 5% and tier 2 will remove 10% so armor doesn't become obsolete. For raids the main problem which was stated "People camp at the entrance or exit" is also easily fixed. Instead of having one exit for certain raids why not have every single raid get 3 exits (2 if you don't count the entrance) that goes to either side of the factions depending on the reputation you have with them, so you can go to the vultures if you have a good reputation with them same thing with the other factions

[@EIIint]

As a solo, people in the game rely on numbers instead of skill these days, like cmon, how am I (level 18) supposed to beat a huge gang of level 40s who go around killing everyone on sight...

For me the game is good and has potential but it's kind of boring right now. The raids aren't as fun as they used to be when i first started the game. Also raids aren't even rewarding anymore since i've got everything in the game unlocked. And the fact that raids aren't even hard like the npcs are very easy to kill and they aren't much of a trouble. The only big risk is the people camping across bunker with rpgs and snipers. So I think they should buff npcs to a point where it's needed to have teammates or something. Like I can just open the bunker by myself as a solo and do it without any trouble.(excluding campers) I would say the game doesn't have many raids but since it has recently launched they will probably improve on that topic in the near future. Also keycard grinding is very boring it would be fun to grind keycards if they had made some tasks that you can do to find keycards but i don't have any ideas on how they could do it.

[@vitecekk13]

I think that it's also unaffordable for most people

[@IMPERATOR99O]

One of my reasons is probably the optimization, like i get 60 to 70 in crim while using a laptop and i get 30-50 fps in blackout and its a problem for people who own laptops not build for gaming or a low end pc

[@tadeogamer_xd]

With 30 fps i can feel i'm in heaven

[@zlxrealest]

blackout had 3k people 2 weeks ago 😭 and now it has about 400…

[@Lvaic_]

The only Blackout video he uploads is about the game dying. Based 💯

[@Bartman7212]

For a game that is still in early access I remember crim used to average the same in early access and beta(according to me) Some people cant afford the game so 500 players is great

[@LaCriminal]

im not in a team and i dont have a duo either so playing the game is super difficult because everytime i leave military base i get jumped by a group of 7 stacked tryhards

[@lagothy]

there is a way to open bunker solo, just by breaking the glass before opening it, but i dont think silver intended to make it so you CAN do that

[@Poptartdweller]

its got its problems (the movment) but its still in devolpment. you never know it might be popular when they add more content nad fix things

[@lonixous5011]

my problem with blackout Is how clunky It is, I can agree with the team system a little, but MAIN PROBLEM. Is the accessibility to guns and the terrible economy system, It's too much money for what you get and too much guns/loot, red loots needs to be revised more. And yeah soloing does suck, even duoing and trioing kinda does a little too from the amount of people.

[@Mr_Sheep964]

this was made 6 months ago and now we got everything this man was asking for photon accel leviathans call big crane and bro when i play blackout alone i feel like an emo kid:(

[@Mr_Sheep964]

oh yeah that map look like that CUZ WERE STUCK IN SOME GIANT WALLS

[@glazredfield9489]

I just got the game after its paid access release at least a week ago. The game's got that Division vibe. 2047 ain't that far. This game takes place in a Military Quarantine Zone somewhere in the world. Weapons access is "scarce", factions are kinda the only best bet. Low level weapons are pretty dogshit. The top tier ones take up so much space and I can't have any room for good loot. The place is a ghetto and it really feels and acts like it. Sometimes you get jumped, sometimes not. You can choose when you fuck someone over. Not everyone is trying to kill you. The Teamplay and Soloplay should be well worked on. I played a couple hours of Criminality and I can't go 5 minutes without some high and mighty douchecanoe coming and killing for no reason other than a bounty. In total, this game is flawed and is early access; however it's clear that the dev(s) put a lot of time and effort into a vision of this game with all of its positives and negatives. Just give it some time

[@mega6076]

It's because the crim devs only release a good update when they have competition

[@domzxe1878]

The game is not dead, there is just not very much content available after doing all of the keycard monuments. You must also realize that Blackout is purely paid access while Criminality is free & paid. Criminality has a bunch of f2p players in casual inflating its player count. They have very similar players when looking at only paid access. Blackout and Criminality's performance are very similar despite Blackout being severely more in-depth. There should be a team cap of like 5, and anything past should be permissible of punishment. The game itself is good if not better than Criminality, and could possibly be the best pvp game on ROBLOX.

[@mantkle]

bum

[@questionableperson8293]

Both games contains Zerg, but in blackout you can easily lose your position advantage

[@platypus908]

you have to constantly move in blackout, holding an area is not good

[@sanajsanaj-ek3iu]

I just help other rebels for now and the reason the game takes place in like 2050 or less yet has not futuristic weapons is because its more like the goverment/military has access to futuristic armor and weapons i think blackout also takes place in a apocalyptic world cause of how everything is kinda crumbled and roads and roofs have vegetation on them, the player count is bigger now but true i still see gang wars happening and i mean i play solo mostly so yk how painfull it is to lose your kit that you worked for to a braindead zerg with ak 47's or straight up get manhunted so you cant do your task💀 (i have so many keycards yet i cant really raid any cause yk you need people or else high chance you die)

[@NoSkillLOL]

This is not already DYING, this is ALREADY died

[@bannano4141]

its not even out of early access yet 😭😭😭😭 games not even finished and people think its trash

[@HARRAWISH]

i feel like blackout was kinda meant for different players i think that the whole reason everyone played blackout in 2021 was its simplicity and all

[@Nizzumnuts]

tbh silver overcooked a bit with revival he should have just released it earlier and did different updates or have an experimental game mode

[@basicallyblaster4840]

do you not know why it took so long? he had to create all his own assets cause it was using some of crims. He had to make new animations, guns, models, and everything lol and it wasent even his main job it was a side thing.@@Nizzumnuts

[@PixelatedHelmet]

Explanation in short "Blackout's early access not for free" Y'know i used to play in the computer shop I see some kids still playing the tutorial and wished the game will be free and I wish that also Will...the game's problem wasnt the gameplay

[@justarandomuser70]

In my opinion, why also some people already quit or about to quit crim or blackout is because the optimization cus before the christmas my fps downed by alot and its uncomfortable to play with it and that's not only with me (i have some friends and even some from other countries and they are saying they encountering with this problem too) so anyways thats only MY opinion why maybe 10-15% ppl stopped play any of these games

[@gooseVEVO1]

Missed opportunity on the BO2 asthetic with the game taking place in 2040

[@qChronos1]

Bo2 takes place in like 2025 though

[@am5era56]

it should’ve stayed as a street fighting game, not a looter shooter (i expected a remake from old blackout, not a whole different game with more tedious grinding) PS: I haven’t bought the game also remember ppl playing the tutorial still counts as players on release day

[@limeminal]

i think the reason that blackout died is because of the paid multiplayer and multiple fans were not able to buy the early access

[@platypus908]

5 dollars, big paywall guys

[@Nicky654a]

They really need to make more modes the basegame is just not fun with all the crutch guns and the new armor (very fair that low lvls cannot possibly kill someone wearing the robocop shit) on top of that you have people just being douchebags and spawn killing/atm camping (why do you insta lose protection when leaving an atm?!?!?!?)

[@Lincolngohard]

the reason i barely play blackout anymore is that everyone just pvps. i cant do one task without being shot at or just walk around the map. i know its a pvp game, but why? you cant find one server without some guy with and AWM just killing everyone thats new to the game.

[@cactusmangaming]

criminality is better because most zergs are busy committing genocides at A1 to care about some dudes on the street grinding.

[@ABE-i9n]

But Blackout was 350 robux, 5 dollars, now it's 250 so thats cool and thats probably why lots of people didnt get blackout

[@werewolfplaze]

okay first of all, he says criminality doesnt have mass teaming like 5-10 people, but as I join a random crim server, I get 8v1 on by teamers?? Also I love how he says that there are no fun items, DUDE THERE ARE MELEES WITH ADVANCED SYSTEMS, LIKE LUNGE ATTACKS, AND HEAVY ATTACKS, WITH SMOOTHER ANIMATIONS. Also he says "Why are there normal guns, why cant they act different?" Well 🤓 errm, pretty much every gun acts the same. Im not saying EVERY GUN works the exact same or smth dum like that. I'm just saying, its set in the future, as the world has fallen and its the apocalypse, its not like there aliens u gotta kill as the NPCS, bro. Also he says that teamers are an issue, and the game is targetting teaming. OF COURSE THEY ARE, ITS A TEAM BASED SURVIVAL PVP/PVE GAME BRO CAN YOU NOT TELL? Anyway, dont want to sound like a rude karen kid or anything, I hate those type of people, but I just want to point out that this guy kind of sounds stupid.

[@qChronos1]

1. By "Fun items" I meant stuff thats objectively stronger than any other item in the game and thats worth grinding for 2. What I was trying to say with "The game is set in the future, why are all the guns the same?" was that the game should be more unique, the time period the game is set in gives the developers an insane amount of freedom with what they can add yet they choose to keep it simple and generic 3. While yes blackout is a team based game, solo players should never be left out when making a game, a big majority of people who play blackout are past criminality players, and a lot of those players are solo players 4. If you think I sound stupid in this video is because you don't know the appeal of street fighting games, what they're meant to be and how they're supposed to be played

[@werewolfplaze]

eh ig i see ur point,not tryna sound really rude or like a karen, just putting out my honest thought, and sorry if it sounded really rude.@@qChronos1

[@lumathan]

tbh if they added fun weapons in your way of thinking blackout would not be fair at all to play@@qChronos1

[@qChronos1]

they already did@@lumathan

[@bartlomidzier]

it is not dying keep in mind that the game is still in early access and is pay to play... silver sticks to the community's feedback, implements updates and will eventually make the game free as he promised im gonna say that if you compare crim standard gamemode's player count to blackout's it should be 1:1... also note that both games vary in price (that's why im not counting casual or any other gamemode that crim has I have my hopes high for this game and I personally don't think that it is dying (I don't know if you stated these in the video because I didn't watch it entirely) READ ALLAT 🧙🏿‍♂ yeah that's all bye

[@cactusmangaming]

yeah right keep saying that early access is why the game is dead.

If you solo this game is a complete nightmare. OH MY GOD THE CLANS ARE SO BIG. i join any server and 6 people with their cringe ah clan tag in their name take up 80% of the server. than i get bullied.

[@N16isbetterthanhydeinsight]

ngl its sad to see the game's player count like this after all that hype its laughable tho to see crim still stand on 2k players while blackout has 400 players after 2 years of hype BUT, its still in early access so who knows

[@Redz20iq]

Sneak peeks is better than early access lmao

[@funniman6080]

making a rule about mass teaming being a bannable offense or whatever wont really work against these type of people but i see the purpose

tbh most players would probs get back on if they release a major update but for rn im afraid to play cuz i keep getting stomped [i have no friends to play with 😭]

[@TOWDS10647]

I love how he called us poor in 200 languages 😭

[@kokobroxd]

the only reasons i havent tried blackout is that its paid access and its not solo friendly

[@redfoxtheman8533]

Yo Chronos can you agree with me that shooting a deagle in crim is way way different then in bo. Not the damage or aim or whatever but I just don't feel it

[@qChronos1]

Its either the recoil or the animation

[@itsybitsywebber8927]

its not even out of early access yet 😭😭😭😭 games not even anywhere near finished and people think its trash

3 months later the game can barely make it over 200 active players
