XDefiantmay only have been released on May 21st, but unfortunately, fans of the game have mirrored those of another title with an unnecessary volume of criticism. The game has only been released for a matter of weeks, and yet many players have decided to make their voices heard and level their complaints at the developers.

XDefiant players appear to be mirroring Helldivers 2 with its level of criticism.

The free-to-play first-person shooter from Ubisoft is expected to go toe-to-toe withCall of Duty, which in itself is a bold statement to make. However, given the dipping popularity of the Activision franchise, this could be an ideal time for a new shooter to take the throne. We’re not saying it will but you just never know in gaming.

XDefiant Fans Mirror Those Of Another Well-Known Title

Much likeHelldivers 2,when it first launched, many players quickly jumped on it and lambasted it with criticism. This is evident from a recent post on the game’s forum on Reddit, where one player asked the community to be more patient and show the developers the respect they deserve. As expected, this saw further comments, with many directing criticism towards the original poster.

This means that any studio, or indeed, individuals attached to them, can receive this criticism directly. What many fans don’t take into account is the painstaking amount of work that developers put into the games that they are playing and how much continues to go on to ensure that the level of enjoyment is maintained.

A Sign Of The Times With The Level Of Criticism

There has been confirmation that theupcoming Patch forXDefiantwill fix one of the major complaintsfrom players. Introducing a flinch mechanic to make sniping more difficult may just be what the game needs to balance it properly. However, there will be no doubt that other issues will arise that need to be addressed in future patches.

Likewise, withHelldivers 2,which has seen various patches since it first launched back in February, it is a sign of the times to see fans making their voices heard about what’s wrong with the title. Whilst there is a necessity to draw attention to issues affecting the game, there is a way to go about this without

Unfortunately, it is becoming more apparent that players have a lack of patience with newly released games and are looking for a perfect product, which realistically is a difficult thing to achieve. Games require patches, and developers have to be allowed time to work on them without unfair levels of criticism levelled at them. They are human beings after all.

Could XDefiant challenge Call of Duty?
