Naughty Dog pulled the plug as they didn't want to be a GaaS developer. It wasn't a decision made on ND.Never forget that they killed factions, but let this stillborne mess live.
it's literally common sense, Steam competes with PlayStation, people are building their digital libraries there, Sony is making very comfortable for people to just be there and not come to PlayStation EVER, again, it's dumb decision after dumb decision since 2020, the strategy of the PS4 was working flawlessly, if it ain't broke DON'T FIX ITYeah if they just released more games then they would attract more players to their platform instead of going to PC, they can take a risk on a WRPG or JRPG if they can take a risk on a turd burger like concord. They can contract external devs like Nintendo does, I will die on the hill that having most of the studios on the west coast along with SIE HQ is a mistake.
Outlaws will do decent enough numbers when all is said and done. Shadows though is going to be huge guaranteed because it's simply going to be a far better game than Outlaws and it's the first new Assassin's Creed main line game in four years plus it's in Japan. If it wasn't for Ubisoft+, I would be day one with the ultimate gold edition or whatever the hell it's called.
not the point I'm making. but also if that were the case you could get a side studio to support the game after launch, like, you know, Bungie or firewalk?Naughty Dog pulled the plug as they didn't want to be a GaaS developer. It wasn't a decision made on ND.
There are no bots in the gameAll I am gonna say is my man @ethomaz played against bots since the first weekend and boasted about 30-40 secs matchmaking time , Looks like even Playstation players rejected this
HOLY SHIT. Is this the first in the industry?
Certainly, they've lost tens of millions on this. So it's certainly a tax write-off.I wonder if they will do some kind of tax write off with the game to claim back costs like warner did with the batgirl movie.
There are bots in the game, the lvl 1 players you see are all bots. People have posted screenshots on reddit, if there was a regular influx of new lvl 1 players they wouldn't have shut down the gameThere are no bots in the game
And matches do start 30-40 seconds, Im playing now
Why do you guys assume Naughty Dog was forced to kill the game? The fact they kept pushing back the reveal, paints a different picture... But let's change the narrative it wasn't obvious Factions wasn't in development hell for over a yearI suspect ND is pissed. I would be.

Never played against much level one players outside of launch weekendThere are bots in the game, the lvl 1 players you see are all bots. People have posted screenshots on reddit, if there was a regular influx of new lvl 1 players they wouldn't have shut down the game
The biggest head scratcher with all of this multiplayer push from Sony. They have three beloved IP that have a multiplayer pedigree and Sony are leaving them dormant. Enough time has passed in which these IPs can be rebooted. God of War was in a similar situation on the single player front and Sony breathed new life into it. They can do the same with Killzone, Resistance and Socom.Sony shouldve gave killzone and resistance ip to other ps studio if insomniac and guerella games doesnt want to make those games anymore
Those two ip are more interesting than concord
Investors seem very disappointed about Star Wars Outlaws sales numbers and let Ubisoft stock crash.
Imagine releasing your mediocre game as Ubisoft/Epic exclusive on PC and get low sales.www.neogaf.com
because they made the whole ass game before killing it. you dont do that if you dont want to kill it.Why do you guys assume Naughty Dog was forced to kill the game?
Did you ever play it or saw the whole ass game?because they made the whole ass game before killing it. you dont do that if you dont want to kill it.
"Ah yes we didnt know we were making a GaaS while we made this GaaS so now that its done lets get fucking rid of it"
