This is XDefiant and It Is…

This weekend XDefiant is running a server test so we are able to play the game for a few days. This video will be my first impressions of the game as well as some live XDefiant Gameplay. I hope you enjoy!

Ngl the lobbies feel worse than mw3 which I never thought was possible. For me, it's an utter sweat fest. 1 game I do alright, might go positive then the next game I'm absolutely annihilated in the blink of an eye. It's like these guys react at inhuman speeds and have god like aim. It's not like I have slow reaction speeds either (150ms) so yeah fuck knows, maybe I'm just ass at the game. There's always that answer.

[@nwordjoe9356]

I feel that way, way, way to much in cod. It's literally like these niggas study 10 hours a day dissecting every map spot and every corner u could possibly aim at. Everyone just has a f1 level reaction time I guess. Iv seen people legit fucking snap onto me and other ppl. We called him out and reported but nothing ever came

Its definitely not the adderall shooter that COD is where if your not doing lines of coke between each match your wont be able to keep up. It will be interesting to see what the lack of SBMM dose to any player base that sticks around because right now you can see a lot of player behavior that comes from a game that measure their performance and tries to impose some idea of skill on top of that.

[@kszytok]

Cool down supposed to be more like 90s instead 30s if opponents have 3 echelon players these wallhack is pretty much constant . There is more balance issues I don't think they have balanced tth well in comparison to how fast this game is . In my opinion ttk is way too long and should be reduced at least by 25%

I personally feel like the aiming on controller is to jumpy, not fast or too sensitive, but jumpy in terms of progression in the sensitivity. Standard being a jumpy sens is pretty normal but while linear and s curve are less jumpy, it still feels a little to much for me. I wish they would just give us a response curve that we can customize like titan fall or apex legends. I still don't know why more games do this great feature.

[@georgebrown8895]

I agree. Did. Not like the way the controller felt on my ps5. Went to my pc for mouse aiming. And way so much better. I think the MnK players will dominate this game in my opinion.

I've never had any issue with defaults, so usually, when it feels off, something isn't right. Idk what it is but compared to a lot of other shooters, this feels off.
