Why Does Everyone Hate This Free Hardcore FPS?

[@righteousone8454]

As a BlueDrake42 subscriber since his Project Reality days I gotta say: 1. Game is very raw from the footage so far 2. I have it in my Steam library since launch, but haven't played it yet 3. As a recording engineer I listened to gun sounds, and gun sounds are missing a LOT of low frequencies and don't sound great in midrange and hi-range of frequencies. I offered BlueDrake42 offer to mix the sounds, but so far I haven't received any replies. 4. I genuinely wish this game success and BlueDrake42 for his dedication to FPS communities. 5. In current state the game is not too alluring to me, just watching reviews I see a lot of glaring "issues", like low res textures, and thin gun sounds. 6. I am spoiled by games such as Insurgency Sandstorm, Squad and Ground Branch. BUT I am also aware how much Squad has progressed over the years, I saw it. Sandstorm was a great product from the get go. Ground Branch is in perpetual Beta state. 7. Operation Harsh Doorstop has can go leaps and bound, but it will unlikely to reach Arma 3 levels of complexity, but it can try to get to Battlefield 4 complexity levels, and mimic elements of Squad and Ground Branch. 8. It's just too raw to call a complete product, I can easily wait for how it goes further and play it later. 9. Games like Siege saw a huge improvement and also regress of tactical elements. R6 Siege started as pretty hardcore tactical shooter, and turned into Valorant with special abilities, with pizza face skins, and character models dressed as Rick and Morty, or full blown rat. Appealing to little kids, even though this is Rated Mature. Which it is now for the kids. I would rather play Squad or Insurgency at the current state, but I have huge hopes for vehicular warfare in OHD, but that is some ways to go. Even Squad lacked actual vehicles during release, and ambitions of Insurgency were scrapped to only infantry fighting playstyle. Which is a shame. I wanted to fly the heli like the trailer showed.

Everytime I read "raw" I read it in Gordon Ramsey's voice. I blame Civvie11 for that XD

[@KW-cm5sg]

Casual Squad/HLL milsim player here. I have enjoyed OHD so far and will keep playing it because it's fun in it's own way, but you said it spot on , the game is in pretty rough shape and need polished up a lot. Bluedrake and his team seem pretty engaged and committed and I have faith they'll get the game where it deserves to be. As far as the ARMA comparison, not everyone want's ARMA levels of complexity, not everyone has time for it or enjoys it being so demanding. Insurgency is like the perfect balance to realism/simplicity. I feel like most players want a that balance. Like I hate arcade shooters like COD/Battlefield with how cartoonish it is, but I don't want to have to dedicate a whole day or several hours for a single game. I will say the audio on the game I feel is pretty nice and is the reason I like the game so much.

Almost all assets in the game including sound are made by the OHD team internally. This is because if they didn't, there would be big copyright issues due to their mod tools. If they had just used pre existing assets it would not have taken 2 years to get here.

i honestly don't understand where this game fits: it's nothing special and, honestly, it's pretty rough. other than this, bluedrake advertised it as a sort of "game that teaches the industry how it's done", which of course it's not. giving the community freedom and pretending that they'll make your game worth a while are two very different things. also there's no point in bragging for months about not having microtransactions when games like Tarkov did it years ago and succeeded.

[@mercenarydelta7351]

True, but the difference between games like Tarkov and OHD are the dev teams. This game was made by an INDIE dev team, not the AAA dev teams everyone is used to nowadays. While games like Tarkov succeeded off of micro transactions, there are equally (if not, more) games that are ruined by it.

I have not played nor looked at a whole lot on this game. I have seen the trailer, the store page, and a video by Garbaj. He made a good point saying this 'game' seems to be more of a platform and should be better marketed as such. However the game should have an identity to set it apart from other games; a strong base game if you will. The shooter genre is highly saturated at the moment and modding alone will probably not carry this game. A game not bound by setting should define itself through modes and pacing. From what I've seen the mode is mostly Squad-style conquest. People who want to play that will play Squad or Project Reality. This looks like it is shaping up to be like a slightly more arcade-y Squad or larger Insurgency. It should lean into that and craft some base modes that are fun and unique that highlight the gameplay style. This can be a jumping off point for modders. Give them rulesets, mechanics, and vehicles for them to inspect and play with. Something more than a blank slate that inspires them to think of possibilities. Single player, co-op, or mixed multiplayer is something they could really highlight and expand on. A clear roadmap of features and what to expect could be very useful for showing the audience a direction. The trailer and store page featuring a bunch of soliders just shooting at eachother communicates nothing. Modders will not make your game, but they will remix and reimagine it. Make them say "what if base game, but...". The whole "oh it doesnt have that, but you can add it yourself!" response i saw to many questions rubbed me the wrong way. Make the base game fun, and when players begin to get tired they will think of ways to change or improve it to continue the fun. In the mean time people should have something to play while mods are being developed. While I think I understand the goal, there needs to be a good answer to "what is OHD?" beyond "community, community, community, AAA bad...." And please lower the viewmodel.

Constructive criticism is key to HD improving but people should also have expectations that are inline with what this title is, not expectatons for a AA or AAA fps straight out of the door. Also thats not even commenting on the completely crash ridden state of MWII release (ghost and suppressor is still fucked, they just broke tac sprint, now fixed) or the massive amount of bugs from other AAA fps launches.

But if its not your thing, then come back later when it has more of the things you want and you may be surprised.

[@banoffecake]

@@PookythePolak I dont hate the game currently, I just dont understand what its trying to achieve. I understand the game has mod support and its free, but lets be realistic it can not literally be jack of all trades..all the games i mentioned took years to make theres no way OHD will somehow remake them for free and be better

[@TAHTAWYu64]

@@banoffecake nope there is a way, it can be all that and more, for ex some people make a mod about a quote on quote realistic fight in 4022 on the moon and starships and lazers and all that, now can any of the the games you listed above do that? absolutely not but you are missing the point OHD is a big free sandbox that anyone can make anything they want to whatever degree, and the limitations are your own imaginary and don`t worry the dev team will ofc keep developing the base vanilla game .

[@PookythePolak]

@@banoffecake I agree OHD wont be able to be all those games all in one. But several parts of each of those games, yes it can be. Taking all the fun and cool things that made those games fun and enticing. And maybe the modding community will make other cool stuff. As being a small dev team, it will take time, but not impossible.

[@MrKennykyle1]

that exit game moment was so cringe. If only you paid attention and not just instantly tick down.

[@Rossco139]

You don't like it? You can literally vote on the features and how they are implementing....I've seen probably 3 or 4 poles in as many days on his page

[@danielp8433]

if you consider the background of this project, its really impressive but ofc not finished

[@OlderThanAverageGamer]

I think it's less that people hate it as it is they thought it was a game, when in reality it's a modding base tool.

[@Litfilmz]

It’s not even really a game yet, but it is almost impossible to play atm because of hackers and exploiter’s

[@Dr1234-o5u]

I met the guy he’s trying his best

[@LA.20]

Simple Reason: People are spoiled and expect it to be flawless, but forgets the fact that it is for free. They expect it to be released like a paid game, which is laughable.

[@notinterested8452]

It's very important constructive criticism. Let people be as honest as they want without fear of reprisals. Expect malicious attacks. Rough tough industry. Oftentimes games are used by criminal networks to launder money and trade.

[@harutogames9204]

Once people start taking care of the hackers and start making really good content for this game i feel like itll over take squad, hell let loose and most other AAA fps milsim type games

[@John_mcjames15]

Cause it sucks rn

[@arsletirott]

a fair and sober look at what OHD is and what it isnt, in its current state. While I am deeply concerned about the project it is tiresome seeing so many youtubers shitting on it

[@surrealsoupuniverse]

The game is also not well optimized, why cant someone make a game like battlefield 2? That game is so well optimized and loved by so many people

[@Wedge4Life]

I played it for 10 mins ... less time than it took to download... ugh no ...the short answer is I don't have time for it but I'm sure it would be revolutionary if it came out in the year 2000

[@Basedweaboo]

I'd like it a bit more if we had some damned bi-pod mounting and breath holding.

[@rogerdinhelm4671]

I don't know who hates this game, I love the concept so far, and I am amazed that Bluedrake was able to pull it through, working basically for free (yeah, you can't really support a normal commerical game studio on donations). Most of the other "sandbox for modders" games were on par or even worse quality AND asked to pay full prise. Arma 3 asked to pay 40$ just so you could beta-test their game for them and was way worse at release. And by the way, animations in Arma 3 are STILL worse than in this free game, lol. And that sluggish vaulting in OHD? Yeah, you can't do it without mods in Arma, after 10 years(!) since full official release, lol. Most of the Arma "complexity" was always written by modders, mainly ACE. (I am using Arma as a most notable sanbox type of game) Screw Arma - Garry's mod costs 10$ for nothing! Are you serious, people? This is just absurd. And this is basically analog on Skyrim Creation Kit on steroids - for some reason nobody whines about it. The game is really just a tech demo for this kit. So I think the right question would be: What made you think everyone hates this game?

[@akira3723]

3:17 there 3 options lol, gotta read

[@MatthewReturns]

The use of player made mods to make the game fun won’t work. You’re expecting enough people to download a specific mod to keep a particular server running 24/7? Not possible

[@SalemikTUBE]

In defence this is not a game and should not have been described as such. It's a framework intended for others to pick it up and run with it using their own mods.

[@drakeblackk]

Honestly, its pretty new and not feels like finished, but its okay, no problem! My problem is the low FPS. Cannot keep 144fix yet, thats why i dont play now :)

[@GoRideLP]

looks to me like day of infamy 2

[@deebs12]

Played it today. Loved it.

[@On.Pestilent.Winds616]

It feels like anyone whining about this game are just being paid by AAA devs.

[@MHANationTribalHistory]

It feels like a paper thin game or skeleton... that's what it's supposed to be.

[@CommanderGXgaming]

Way better than that unfinished “da Dum Dum da Dum Dum” game

[@spenny503]

the gun sounds are soooo cheap its a major turn off. Maybe there will be an update to make that better

[@fredshred5194]

Played last night full of Hackers, like real bad .

[@michaelharrison6976]

It's more like a simulation and I think it's awesome

[@lautaritoxd5213]

the walking, crouching and holding grenates animations are so weird it look like a poor unity game

[@dominickatkins2698]

It's not that it's hated, it's that is too much like Squad yet missing the mark entirely. 😔

[@stereotypical713]

its meant to be like squad, just bare bones. let them work out the kinks, squad had numerous years in development while they had around 3 with not nearly as many people working on it and community funded

[@MathianSC2]

Squad launched in early access with far less content than OHD.

[@dominickatkins2698]

@@MathianSC2 This is true, that being said I never said OHD was a terrible game, nore did I say it needs togo. What I did say is it's obviously heavily inspired by Squad and the devs seem stuck atm.

[@MrNothinGuy]

its arma 3 + squad

[@hoangvuification]

Its not cooked fully

[@gorgiablessins3522sdf]

Hold breath: Bro just code it in yourself, isn't that the whole point of this game? Gmod doesnt have a hold breath either but games have it plenty of times. Exit game: Bro theres literally a button called "Leave game" and a button called "Exit" lol. Just fucking read. read. Isn't the whole point of this game to make a platform for creating little mini games? Basically like GMOD or like Roblox. It's not a game in it of itself. It's just a platform and you can make games if you're good enough. That's what happens when you make it seem like a normal video game, its the devs fault

[@mohaglade4892]

It always amazes me how people get a game for free and keep complaining about that

[@nirvanna666_]

All you need is a 4090 with 12000k

[@tesoro9623]

Because Bluedrake hyped it up so much and its garbage, while i know its Early Access, that doesn't excuse how bare bones this is. Plenty of early access games have way more content than this title. I was hyped for it cause the premise of different timelines is cool but it all feels the exact same, Vietnam feels like ww1 in this and it shouldn't. We need way more content than what we got, shoulda cooked it for another few months to a year

[@Sebomai-b8i]

Stop lying.

[@g4merboie789]

A gaming pc is too expensive for me. I play on xbox so I can't really try it :(

[@stephen9462]

Project remake Project Reality. Still the best fun you can have

[@Anderhils]

Easy, withouth watching - entitled and ungreatful neckbeards will always be mad. Even if its free and in early stages. Games has its problems, yet almost every game on early release has some. From trying out i must say its much better than let's say Enlisted when it first opened.

[@ryuhanja3415]

I enjoyed it when I played with my friends until some guy spin boting ruined the server and since we haven’t played

[@rajivsingh2392]

"Leave game"😑😑 also it got an multiplayer modding update

[@YaToGamiKuro]

the only complain i see is hackers and cheaters

[@OkamiiSenpai]

Original Insurgency was way better than sandstorm

[@leadntaters4736]

because it really inst that good also it is far from hardcore or tactical
