The Chaotic Downfall Of Pixel Gun 3D (Downfall Documentary)

[@MxnzzOfficial]

I’m not saying pg3d is dead fully, but from an OG 2016 player’s standpoint this game really went downhill relatively quick. I’m gonna do my best to revive. Also my channel is not pg3d-dependent anymore I’ll still do content nonetheless. New Discord Server! (Got raided a while back. I will publish the link to the new server whenever I can) - 6/29/2024 EDIT (June 2023): The thumbnail has been updated.

This lies in childhood here, the weird sandbox moments, and the fun killing sprees of clueless people on specific maps like paradise resort with the shuriken thrower. Good times when I was 9 and now here, the beginning of my final year of high school. It's been a great run but there is always an ending.

I think you should have covered the entire "wish lottery" scheme. They said they were not going to include ultimatum, but in the end they did and proceeded to make it extremely hard to get. They then proceeded to add many pay to win offers for keys, which many players bought hoping to get ultimatum. I remember seeing about 12 different people saying they spent 100+ dollars trying to get ulti and never got it The lobbies were ruined for a whole month after the event. That event shows just how greedy and ignorant the devs could get. They saw how many people wanted ulti. They knew it would ruin the game, but they decided to break their own rule just to make money. And it worked. They made at least 10,000+ dollars on that event and im sure of it. The sheer amount of people who went pay to win during it was insane and it genuinely ruined the game for a bit. And still no ulti nerfs...

[@CRUELLANDER]

Honestly I think it’s time for Pixel Gun 3D to get a sequel, or a prequel, or a spin-off, or even a stand alone story. Bringing brand new and fresh content to the table, I think the campaign was okay, but I think they should do a open world campaign honestly, adding more lore to the world of Pixel Gun 3D and also new gameplay to the table aswell. Honestly Pixel Gun 3D was released 9 years ago. It’s time for a new continuation to this game

Been around since 2015, always enjoyed the competitive side of the game. I been modding currency and weps since 2016 to avoid p2w. Adding delay to 3cat and momentum to movement definetly slowed the game down, and I have lost interest in sweats since then, which is unfortunate as there hasn't been any other shooter to play as fast as pre delay 3cat pg3d. no acc no armor old school pool privs is as close as it gets, but it's just not the same

Very good video

[@Galaxius2117]

Bro I literally remember like 2015 whenever sandbox mode was a thing. I remember going on there and basically online dating. Then I remember being so bad at the game because my potato phone couldn't really run it too well. Then I remembered when the game sort of started to decline to where it is today. They slowly started to add more pay 2 win stuff and the game felt rigged so the only way you could actually beat people is if you've got money. I think the last good memory I've had with this game is when I, and many others, would do these "NO KILL" matches on pvp maps and they were tons of fun. Legit got to explore with many other players and it was just entertainment taken to a whole new level at that point. After that, I lost interest in the game. I think the last time I've played pixel gun 3d is in like 2018 or 2019. I did actually play it again, like today a few hours ago. I reinstalled it just to see what happened to it, and oh my god it was horrendous. I was playing on a new phone, my older one was like $99.99 but my newer one was literally almost $900. But the game feels broken, literally. I could play team matches for a bit, and then it would kick me out and send me back to the main menu. Literally every match there is either bots or just really OP tryhards, 99% of the time it was just bots. I really hated how they shove this starter pack thing in your face randomly, I legit couldn't do anything for 5 mins before this animations of this dude popped up and he was like "WOAAAH" and "OHHH" and it just shown a deal thats $100 but its been marked so it was instead $5.49 something. Not only that, but I've checked the store and it was basically the same as it was when I've left PG3D entirely. Most expensive stuff being over $100, but it didn't really give a lot of gems/coins like it should. Lets just say that 1 coin is worth $0.50 USD and 1 gem is worth $2.00 USD. Then lets say the most expensive option costed $129.99. For that amount of money, you could buy 64,995 coins and 25,998 gems which seems very reasonable. Sure its still p2w, but it is a hella of a lot better than getting 1000 coins and gems with over $100 which will get you basically no where because you'd still have a bunch of weapons to be unlocked and/or upgraded. I'm going to miss it so much because of the player base, and because of how little p2w it was. I will also miss the fact that sometimes, whenever you were in a match with other players, a dude with a full on chinese or japanese or even russian name would join and they would have hacks. Legit dudes would be god moding, 1 shooting players, or just using infinite ammo. I actually do miss the hackers bro because I've made friends with some of them and they actually helped me through the game a bit. Other than that, I guess this is goodbye. I will miss PG3D.

[@AAA-mi1fg]

This game has fallen pretty hard, I used to play almost everyday starting around 2015. It was so nice then, the most op weapon was a simple laser gun (prototype). Weapons were so much better then, I can remember getting crystal laser cannon when it was meta, learning to 3 cat spam, grinding clan wars with the original WSUL, and trying fun glitches to troll people. Then they started adding cringy weapons, took out popular maps, took away homing. The breaking point was prob around 17-18.0 update with the new chest system. It just got worse from then, new clan war system (trash imo, I miss fighting other top clans in siege), then the tournament system was changed, lottery/set event has become more rigged (remember when you could exclude 3 slots in event, only 1 now...). I'm not even gonna talk about how they haven't updated gallery for 2 years now ( think last time was around 2021 easter). The game just isn't what it used to be, they keep adding levels, nerf post-game rewards, then they ruined the battle pass, now I get an add every time I leave a match. I've been a f2p for my entire playing time, I've got around 600 weapons, all the good ones, and yet it just is not as fun anymore. I've been playing on and off now for a while. Those early memories of the game will always be treasured, meeting really nice people, grinding out the battle pass (this was so fun and rewarding as a f2p, since you could only get roughly every other season, now its ruined bc its so hard to get credits without spending), waiting those last 5 min before winning 1st place in pro league, and just the simplicity of the game, when the anti-champ was a 1 shot (now they have the these stupid modules and op armor), and all the people who just spam AoE weapons. Its been fun pg3d...

I'm a player who started playing around 12.6.0 or November 2017 I didn't experience the early game much, but I was highly active in the community, and I networked my way into several top clans.

The Automatic Peacemaker in late 2014, and us spending hours upon hours attempting to get enough coins to get it. Nowadays, I look back on how I had felt, rather than the quality of the game.

I learned to min max in games when they introduced the diamonds and i knew there was no other way to get it other than to pay or to finish the campaign. I gave up my max account by then and i had like 4-5 retries of the campaign not to get all the three stars (was still difficult in some maps cus i played it with a fresh account so really weak guns) but to carefully pick which gun to buy and what to upgrade, i remember thinking really hard if i should buy and upgrade the prototype sniper or that green sniper that can penetrate walls… but the earliest memory of me playing pixel gun was just camping at the rooftop of that zombie map with the 4 buildings. The fb group pixel gun was also a delight, i had a lot of heated discussions there and thats probably where my grammar skills actually improved a lot.

I stopped playing around 2018-2019 not really sure, but I had tons of memories from that game. Sandbox and the wacky chats I got into, the friends I had on the game. I'm pretty sure the reason I stopped playing was because I was level 31 and I think I was dealing with like level 40s and such when 31 was no longer the level cap (too many over powered weapons I couldn't get a kill... partly skill issue). Maybe I'll get it back and see it's condition, but that's just a thought. Rip

[@Milty2001]

I actually remember playing this game along side minecraft and block city wars but what I love about this game was that it had pretty unique maps for everyone to use from wide open maps with very little ammo making fights intense to parkour maps floating with plenty of ammo and you had to watch your step it also featured maps from the campaign which I really loved mainly because each one had a very eerie soundtrack, the story was awesome but as for the multiplayer I miss playing with my friends we'd always do survival or straight up pvp good times,,

[@unsilencedderp9411]

I played for a good year during the age of OP weapons. I am surprised I heard nothing about solar flare, or the portal gun, and I know you mentioned triple bite, but you didn't say what was bad about it, which was the module combination that made you unattackable for 4 seconds. The shuriken gadget was also a silent problem for most of the game's lifetime since it one tapped. The portal gun glitches were pretty fun to mess with in my opinion, but not too op since you could always use x-ray and wall break against them. Other worthy mentions are the scattershot weapons like big b's oven, bedivere, and cerberus, that annoying alien bug gun, literally anything that has grapple, the invis gadget, the reflector, the metal clan armor reflection, and the elemental set reflection pre-nerf. Sly wolf was another one, the time watch gadget, eraser, any dash weapon, cashbacks, and any weapon that had bullets that stuck to walls on impact were annoying specifically in flag capture too. When I played it, there were always new op weapons coming out, but they always got nerfed after a while. My loadout was Viking, Thunderer, Heroic epee, (also kind of broken because that regen could save your butt) Poison Darts, (ice king's for noobs lol) Heavy Sniper Rifle, (never got on the punisher train) and originally demo exo, but the capacity got nerfed, so I swapped to royal ashbringer. If I had to point out the one problem that most people never knew the game had, it would be the efficiency ratings. Just because the devs decided to not put an actual damage number on each gun, nobody who plays and does not have access to the internet is absolutely clueless as to what guns are any good. So I could see that causing a lot of people to leave. The game was nice while it lasted in the short time I knew the community, but I guess all good things eventually meet their end. I also totally cheated. Being low-level sucks, so I bought an auto-clicker, set up a switch control thing for co-op, and farmed monsters with pandora's box.

Great video, I think matchmaking is an issue that I think would be impossible to resolve, bc grinding to lv 65, you meet player out of your match, some may get satisfaction and some won't. ender in the last clip is right especially when server cost money, and also the devs financial lives, It's a difficult problem, it's a very fast paced game with it ranking above others which unfortunately ended up with the devs to handle. I think they are trying something new, and I'm sure with their rate of work it might end up helping the game

I remember the old days of playing the campaign on my big ass clunky nook device. And being so hype when id get a gun from the chests and raging at the multiplayer. Truly those were the days

[@clizbot]

The devs are really desperate to revive this game. They’re copying all the new games that are popular or trending. They added an Among us mode. Unbelievable. Battle pass. They even copied tap and plays like clash of clans.

[@LieutenantDANH]

idk whats more nostalgic? the minecraft music or the 2014 PG3d

[@spinxings]

When it comes to block shooters, the top 4 most iconic ones, pixel gun, cops n robbers, block city wars and pixel strike. Each had their issues which are either still present or are resulting in the game's death. While I think each game had/has its stand out features eg; pg3d's graphics, variety of weapons, game modes Cnr's workshop feature and extremely good replayability. Pixel strike's gameplay and f2p model And block city war's GTA style gameplay and graphics. Though, each of these game's strong points, were a few of its downfalls.. Pg3d, the unbalanced state of the game and p2w Cnr, the unbalanced state of customs, cards the game is slowly turning p2w Block city wars, became over-run with hackers and was overrun to the point of where the devs, just gave up and abandonded the game And pixel strike, its gameplay while solid is extremely buggy, obvious bugs aren't being fixed and the dev's main focus, while yes this is cosmetic, are battle passes. Each has their flaws, at the beginning till the midtime of their lives, they were fantastic games but accross the board, all the games listed, the devs either became fixated with monetization, adding new broken sht with no fixes for weeks and ignoring their community entirely. Its sad all of these games have turned sour in places, but the memories outlive the modern version for me and many others.

[@delzq]

yep now bcw is gonna update to "2.0" and by non other than pg3d

[@triangle_67]

ahhhh you're right Pixel Strike was the other gem that I used to play as well

[@altroll1453]

bcw 2.0

I was an og player (I remember the days when the first Christmas weapons were released) and over the years, I've been on and off when it comes to the game. I've made like six different accounts and my last time playing the game was early this year. The game has become too pay 2 win and has been plagued by poor matchmaking. Both are problems which I'm sure they cannot or will not fix. After my last time deletion of the game from my phone, I won't be downloading it again. It's clear that the game is not dedicated to skill (although the 3-cat spam meta is cancer in my opinion) and the game is now focused on power weapons over skill or actual fun. It's not fun to get killed by someone at an extremely higher level then you and it's not fun to kill people with higher tier weapons all the time because it gets boring and repetitive very quickly. I also think the grindy nature of the game has killed any pacing for newer players. Such a grind has only been made worse by the season passes and the parts. I remember a time when casuals like myself could have fun in the game. Even in matches filled with competitive players, I felt like I was on an even playing field. Now I'm seeing even the competitive players leave because they aren't having fun. Overall, I don't recommend Pixelgun 3d in its current status to anyone. You'll either find your childhood memories bashed in with reminders that the latest weapon, that will get nerfed later on, is on sale for twelve dollars, or you won't have fun or find anything in the game to keep your attention.

[@SethAtSNK]

I'm from around 2013-2014, I stopped playing on like 2017-18 because I've lost the device that had the account on, I had only saved the password on this device and had broken it

[@deenarrollo8267]

This music and gameplay are a ultimate duo

[@Bozdreamy]

I remember playing around 2016-2018ish and does anyone else remember the old tutorial and the phoenix being the like the tips guy at the bottom of the screen when you loaded into a level and you could actually get access to every feature like all the gamemodes and maps I miss old Pixel gun 3D

[@80upp]

i remember when i joined somewhere around 2017-2018 my first account got deleted and so did my second i miss when my friends were actually online

[@sheperdofthebrahs]

Good old times, killing people in 1 vs 1 and then going invisible with the purple sword to cheese the win

[@Expertato555]

The Minecraft music makes this even better.

[@minhtran7431]

Man, I usually play that hunger game like mode because my guns are so bad in actual game

[@Trey_816]

I used to play, but when it became a pay-to-win, I got sick of it. It just... wasn't fun anymore.

[@FireChicken747]

It was so sad to be an OG player witnessing this game collapse.

[@rainyonrecord]

I remember playing this game, removing the bloated amount of micro transactions, balancing changes to the gear and weapons and in my opinion a change to paid access to google play and a port to steam or GOG that’s paid would be a good start to a revive, the game is made with unity so porting the game won’t be entirely impossible only certain changes need to be done in theory.

[@DiegoLTE]

9:00 homies brain turned off

[@clizbot]

The golden era of the game was before the armor. 7.1.1 or so. When Nuketown map came out.

[@wirhly]

I used to play this game a lot when I was much younger and I loved to play it with my sister, it was brand new and it was so fun, too bad I dont play anymore

[@carlitos5984]

I remember only good memories with this game one of the first games I ever got by myself when I was kid

[@oofjeff3735]

this really wasnt edited well, but at least you got your point across

[@sharpshootersosa0856]

As someone who started on the Christmas 2014 update I can say that the absolute peak was 2014-2015, 2016 was meh, and after that it was unplayable. HOWEVER! I am playing a lot nowadays due to the fact that cubic games is actually trying. I mean my loadout is the least competitive ever, I mean my favorite weapon is a legendary crossbow cuz they butchered the prototype psr 1 sound effect and I still use the katana despite it being way past it’s prime days. I just hate how little variety there is nowadays, be honest and think about how many times you’ve seen these items being used. The homing Bees Ninja stars Anti champion rifle Heroic epee Poison darts The brony gun The op ice ghost lantern that has instant contact Tactical scorcher The tron gun There are probably more examples but it’s insane that even with the amazing variety of weapons people stick to these few items. And yeah there has always been op guns but at least they were guns like the big buddy that was just a regular gun that shot a nuke, I feel like every new gun has some sort of ability that is extremely unnecessary, like who hired Dr. Doofenshmirtz to create the bug-inator 3000, I’m not even that mad because it’s funny as heck and isn’t super overused but why do we stay as bugs for 3 hours, c’mon man, just do like 5 seconds or something. But perhaps I’m biased due to the fact I was spoiled by the gaming legend that was pg3D during the peak. And even then it’s thankfully not as bad, I just hope they continue on fixing what’s been done and hopefully bring back the good old days eventually, end communication.

[@sharpshootersosa0856]

Oh btw forgot to mention the terrible new upgrading system which really needs a fix when it comes to leveling up and cost, the fact that armor doesn’t even act like armor and is just your main Hp, and the fact they prioritize making new op mythicals instead of fixing the game directly.

[@Legxnd]

I randomly just wondered what happened to this game because this game is so nostalgic to me as an og player

[@Carrllll3709]

It’s sad this game was part of my childhood when I was 6

[@gastergiovanna9793]

Played since 2013 and man it's sad to see this game fall so far from it's glory days

[@phoenics0912]

I still remember gradually losing interest in the game about 4 years ago because of what they were adding to the game. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it then but now I realize that it was greed that killed this game for me. It was fun while it lasted tho..

[@DavidNguyen-o9q]

Man I can't believe it has been 10 years since I first discovered this game while playing Minecraft PE

[@AAA-mi1fg]

Game went down hard

[@djgeekalex]

I miss so much the Atlantide map ,one of my favourites..

[@DesiredSlayz]

I remember that old forest/desert hunger games map and after getting a rifle i would just camp the trees

[@NoNameee99]

I Remember back in 2016 when an update comes out I'd be so excited to play it with my friends ahhhhhhh nostalgic 😪💔

[@fedupadhesive4885]

I still remember catfishing all those old ass men in sandbox mode😢

[@OrdinarySlime]

tbh i just like driving around and exploring the open world map i don't know why but it just feels so good it gives me lofi vibes sense of freedom and the urge to explore and discover things don't get me wrong i like playing other modes too but my personal favourite has to be the open world.

[@Mr_Mysterious52]

It's worse now there is almost no players just bots

[@n7x]

I tried to play it again but they had deleted my account. It was linked to Game Center but my progress was wiped. I had spent money on the game too, I think I bought a pack with the gold minigun skin. The account support discord server did not help at all. This game used to be so good though. It even inspired the name of my roblox account.

[@Cookieshortcake]

Hey, I miss this, nvm it will never get back again, can’t stop thinking of the beautiful moments I want the same old game again but it will never come back 😢😢😭 I need it rn I can’t I want to feel the same feeling again same old KZbinrs of pg3D miss everything old

[@thyney6420]

Played this when I was young and man what a game it was so sad too see it die slowly

[@SW-lc1wx]

This is pretty accurate, I've played since gems and armor weren't a thing, the old menus, original music, etc. Really sad to see it go down the gutter like it did, it just became a cringey fortnite copy like many other games and more pay to win

[@アキコ2003]

Good times when they didn't ban you for getting gems. It literally didn't hurt anyone (The invincible mods or damage mods are the ones that hurt the game) Also, the best thing on the game was sandbox. The moment they changed it, it was over

[@x_jasongaming_x6135]

I played pixel gun in 2017 and I still play it to this day and boy has this game changed a lot 🥺

[@velocity1425]

Honestly ima miss this game. You always been a real one bro all the memories of the overdrive clan and cvcs. Its time to move on though were growing up and thats something we can't change. As we get older we start to lose interest in things we once enjoyed. The saddest part is we can never go back. Its alright though we all gonna make it brah 💪 💯 Ily bro no homo 2015-2021

[@mlphero1232]

I remember when I played pg3d. Those were some of the best mobile gaming moments I had lol. I remember the first “meta” I ever really experienced was the pulse rifle I think? Even then, there were so many weapons you could usually find a decent enough counter, and the guns performance were often based on skill and not the weapons dmg. It also probably helped that it was easy to grind for coins and gems, especially for the good players. I still occasionally hop into pg3d but it just don’t feel that fun anymore. I could just be nostalgia tripping, but it still really sucks tbh.
