I haven’t played GZ for a while, but suddenly recalled how much fun it was and reinstalled it on my PS. That’s when I learned about the final update, and that there’s not gonna be any further development for the game.
That’s fine, I thought, this game gave me so many hours of fun, I have no right to complain. That was, until I started playing and ran into a bunch of bugs, some of which I knew existed, some of which were new for me.
Long story short, the game’s borderline unplayable right now, so I can’t really give it the “final goodbye” I was hoping for. And, given how this was the last update, I suppose the bugs won’t be fixed either, hence the bad taste left behind.
(Am I being a tad dramatic? Probably. Still, honestly a bit disappointed)
No you are not being dramatic.
I really dont like the state they left the game in.
The companion disappears after a while most of the time.
They changed the base building when no one asked them.
And left numerous bugs to be fixed.
The game was better before that update.
A company with good games like them (Mad max, Just cause series and Rage 2) does this? I dont want to buy any game from them ever again if its like this (like i havent bought anything from ubisoft since they stole “my” The Crew.
Sadly the experiences are spread over a great range.
I can’t remember when I saw a critical bug the last time. My performance is good and I don’t have any crashes. Even my longtime bug with the disappearing safehouses got fixed for me.
It’s just the bad taste of many changes they introduced with the last update and didn’t tune them much afterwards: the changes for base building/defenses and for the crafting. So high costs for many receipes, too low outcome.
At least the devs heard a bit on us and added some of the new ressources to the rivals loot pools with the final hotfix.
I can still enjoy playing GZ. It’s my favourite game if I want to play something but don’t want to spend too much time or brain or don’t know what to play.
The update killed the game. Co-op play was almost dead before the update, but chased away most players that had the game before the last update. If you didn’t want to do base building/defense or crafting you never had to, just collect everything by looting as the game first started out. And who forces the player base to use a last update add-on change to how you play a game? It sends out a big message that the producers don’t care they screwed their comsumer base and makes them wary of purchasing more of their games.
A new Doom-Thread after the real Doomsday. Thats new for me. (Elite Dangerous Player :P) Wonders still happens… (Waiting for a shadow drop trailer of GenZ 2.)
oh boy… i bought elite dangerous in 2018 or 2019 for the PS4, 2 years later or something they dropped the support for consoles, the worst/best part? I didnt even played it at all! lol
