Where is XDefiant Now?

[@BuckeyePlays]

Alright y'all so I completely forgot to mention the Classic Prestige System that is also slated to come to XDefiant. That is a big thing that will hopefully be coming in Season 03 or 04 as well.

[@elfuture3542]

It’s season 3 confirmed and a lot of content that’s all the game needs besides that it’s a amazing game way better than cod

What ever happened to playing the game just because it’s fun like why tf does everyone want content after content/ grind after grind what ever happened to just playing for fun.

[@BronzFor]

Super minimal content? They only drop a map 2-3 times a season a new faction every season , add new features every season. The game isn’t even a year old ffs y’all spoiled. If something isn’t added every week ppl cry about lack of content. Tik tok brain

[@jonathanwilson1539]

Thissssss!

[@PoldGames]

Facts bro, legit 1 map a month and technically 1 gun a month as well if you count the 3 guns you get from the pass.

[@B_A_R212]

Exactly and why tf do they always need new content even every month like me personally I’m completely fine with playing this for months on end with some breaks. But that’s just me since I play the games just for fun and not for the new content.

[@vhsdeath420]

fr bro it's like 12 new maps every year wtf do they complain about? also it still a small devs team, immagine one day maybe they'll drop 2 new maps every months or 3 new maps at the start of a season and 1new map every month, let's just wait for the game to be 100% done and will be amazing, brain rotted people cant wait more then 2 months

[@Seth4192]

On a game they didn't spend money to play it's truly insane

[@Jcrompo]

If you haven’t played it for so long how can you comment on the limited time modes and content. And also netcode and content are ramping up a lot more in season 3. The games free and the developers are listen to the community. Content creators like your self just think it’s the trend to just moan and shit on the game!

Not saying the playercount isn't low, or it is easy to find games outside of "primetime" - but there has for the longest time been a bug, where only looking in one specific playlist took a lot longer than if you made a custom list with a few different modes. Quickplay is new, and because it almsot always just puts you in TDM, it has really made it harder to find anything that isn't TDM, because many that before made a custom playlist, now just play TDM quickplay because they think it's all there is! I am still playing the game daily, and I hope we come to a point with a bit more players... even the week after BO6 release it was easy to find game unless you were sitting like 2 or 3 am. It is even more recently it has become as bad as everyone has claimed it was for a long time. But I have to say, and please don't take it as too much of a personal attack, but I don't know how to say it without making it seem like one. I have a bit of a hard time taking you too serious.... You were so exited about this game, you made a channel dedicated to it... Xdefiant guides.. right? But never could get around to actually posting a guide. And now when I look at you play, and hear how you "burned yourself out on playing too much" - and while that might be true to some degree... you have 249 damage with LMGs... You probably picked one up once desperate for bullets because you ran out in your gun... besides that, you never even touched LMGs... And the M249 is objectively one of the best guns in the game. How do you burn out on a game, and thing there is too little content, when you haven't touched a complete category of weapons? If you do chose to play more, equip the sawed off when you get it.... that thing is so much fun...

[@Connorthatkid513]

Bro you gave up on this game without giving it a fighting chance. It’s a free to play game and it plays as such. The core gameplay is among the best on the market. It’s a new IP and it’s going to take time to bring it to life. Y’all want to criticize this game like it’s a 20 year old title with year and years of foundation

[@BuckeyePlays]

I have 50+ hrs in the game… I have taken a break away from it for a variety of reasons and I am excited to see what they are able to bring to us with Season 3. These are all fair and constructive criticisms.

[@kunai3174]

Stop being delusional XDeadfiant is done

[@B_A_R212]

⁠@@BuckeyePlays Not really lol firstly the netcode is a issue because it’s running on a new engine unlike cod so that’s not really constructive criticism and the content has been just fine since it is a small team working on this project. Also idk why everyone needs something new every single day for the game to be fun

[@NickRoss0130]

It’s not dead. You get full matches really fast, but I can’t play it with the netcode that it has. I dump clips into people and they don’t flinch but when they look at me I die. Playing on a wired connection too. If it wasn’t for that I’d still be playing it

[@pmontyjaaaymes488]

I think Netcode is better now for sure. Idk why they are saying its not good.

[@franzburisch5280]

I love this game so much. My only problem is that all my friends are not (longer) playing it.

[@SouSporting]

I've never played any fps that lied more about connection than Xdefiant....

[@DNYLNY]

I just came back to XD from BO6. I like that XD has class abilities.

[@buccagnar]

😂

[@TheSparkynuts]

Literally the worst part about the game

[@LukeRosdahl]

I played it early on and liked it, but the netcode consistency was miserable. Sometimes I'd kill someone in an appropriate amount of time, and other times I'd dump a half a clip into someone just for them to spin and down me in like 2 bullets. Now it feels muuuch better, and since Overwatch sucks, BO6 sucks, it's for me the best looking and feeling shooter out there right now, and to their credit, it actually does feel really nice now. I'm not concerned about all the extra content and skins and crap, BO6 looks like a clown show with all the nonsense they have now, I'd rather have a solid playable game. I'll be sticking with XD for the time being now and see how it develops.

[@MIYayYo]

One main thing I like about XDefiant is being able to engage into actual gun battles. I played BO6 and there be times I die instantly and I didn’t even get a shot off. Then get spawned killed. People talk about the bunny hopping in XDefiant being a problem obviously have not endured in CODs finest players abusing the movement system to the point you don’t even see the enemy. XDefiant is way more tamed compared to how insane COD can get with people sweating. One more thing. I’ve played XDefiant on both console and PC, the console port is way more consistent and optimized vs the PC version.

[@zodiac_blue9116]

I live in Western PA I have a custom playlist of three modes and get lobbies as fast or faster than your quick play. Are you limiting the input crossplay?

[@BuckeyePlays]

No I actually opened it up completely No IBMM and open cross play

[@pmontyjaaaymes488]

I think it might be areas. Im in Kentucky. Ive never had a problem finding a game. Maybe a few times. But its been even faster now. Every time i get on.

[@CarriesOnTop]

I tried some xdefiant yesterday at 5am after not playing for 2 months and went into quick play and just ran whatever build I had saved and I honestly had a blast. Like u ever play a game and just feel so satisfied and happy with it that u just go and say yeah I gat my full. I played a long ass match of the robot game mode and went like 50/9 or something and gat second place on my teammate with most defense. (Do u know if u have to pay in order to pay the new maps)?

[@pmontyjaaaymes488]

You dont have to pay to play the new maps. Its all free. The new Signal playlist. Just play that.

[@vhsdeath420]

Bro wasn't you the guy who used to make like videos about xdefiant news and stuff? Almost forgot about you man we missed you, hope you'll come back, there's also a bunch of creator that are putting together tournaments for creators when private matches will drop

[@BuckeyePlays]

Yes, that is me! I am not committing to anything, but I am happy to start making some more videos again!

[@zodiac_blue9116]

You are a hater. I gave up on BO6 due to net code issues, SBMM/EOMM. Net code on this game is perfectly fine. This is a free game. You threw your eggs in the XD basket to make your channel grow, it did not happen and now you’re hating.

[@BuckeyePlays]

Bro I’m not hating at all 😂 This is a constructive perspective and I stated that I am cautiously optimistic about Season 3. These are fair criticisms that I am hopeful and excited to see be addressed soon!

Hey thank you! I hope you enjoy the video!

[@racker6081]

Did I... Manifest the video or did it came out exactly as i asked the question? Well regardless its good to hear from you again and thanks for the info i was looking for. I stopped playing before season 2 started, i tired myself out with grinding the battle pass for season 1 and didn't even complete it. I still like the game and wish it to do well, but i didn't feel like playing ut for a while with all other things happening in my life. If they bring assassins in season 3 like i predicted i will definitely jump into it again for a bit, but i hope the future seasons will bring back some glory so the game doesn't just die.

[@BuckeyePlays]

Ayeee I’m glad I could help answer your question!! I’m cautiously optimistic and hoping they are able to bring a strong Season 03.

[@elfuture3542]

Yes season 3 faction is assassin creed with prestige’s and other content the game is only going up from then

@elfuture3542 I'll be honest, I predicted assassins the moment I saw the road map all those months ago lol The leaked from someone on Twitter who's leaks confirmed GSK and Highwaymen only assure me of my prediction.

First i am very happy to see u back in Xdefiant video and seccond I stop playing this since last two weeks i have grinded everything now waiting for the next season they should bring some attractive skins like COD have. Lets hope they bring back it.

[@KORLxCreature]

So i am also from ohio on the east coast server. It sometimes takes forever to find a lobby. Now i play at odd late hours. Could play a factor. What i dont understand is why doesn't it expand into other servers? I have great Internet! Best I can buy! Super fast download speeds! I can do fine on further servers. Either expand me for quicker match making or let me choose what server i want to be on! I'll switch to West Coast late at night if it means quicker match making. Rocket League is a good example of a game that easily lets you choose what servers you want to be on! I cant imagine it being an issue.

[@B_A_R212]

Yo you probably heard this before but just get a vpn if you want to pick servers also you should have a vpn anyways in my opinion

[@KORLxCreature]

@B_A_R212 I know what you're talking about and I agree. I just feel like that should be something put in the game and not me having to do that through VPN.

Ranked is a joke; if you already have a ranked team it’s ok; solo is play abysmal; lower ranked random teammates; who end up quitting, making it a 2/3 V 4.

Ubisoft is just like Bethesda biting way more off than they can chew. The game was great in the beginning. Then with the cuts and all the shit happening in Ubisoft it’s hard enough to keep a game alive let alone have a very consistent dev team which Ubisoft in all of their games lack. Just not enough to offer, not enough content. Ubisoft is just a dying game company, and I don’t even know how they’re thriving. Rainbow six is dog shit, assassins creed is dog shit, and now unfortunately because of lack of development and cuts and blah blah blah this game is dog shit too. I am hoping for nothing good coming from Ubisoft.
