Notable feedback & General Sentiment
Enhanced Onboarding for New Players To address the steep learning curve, a more comprehensive and interactive tutorial system is needed. Help new players understand the game mechanics, shooting dynamics, and game strategies more effectively & quickly.
Improved Communication on Updates Clear communication about upcoming changes, balance adjustments, and the rationale behind them could help players adapt more easily and reduce frustration. Detailed patch notes and developer insights would be beneficial. — This is specific to things like buffs to weapons, mapping of skills, eg. why some have been moved from just given to purchasable (or behind the licenses system)
Addressing Performance Issues Continued focus on optimizing game performance is crucial. Prioritizing bug fixes, reducing lag, and improving server stability would significantly enhance the gameplay experience.
Balancing Casual and Competitive Play Creating a more distinct separation between casual and competitive modes. To cater to different player bases. Ensuring that casual players have a relaxed environment while competitive players have a more skill-based, intense experience can help maintain a balanced community. (aka elo matchmaking)
Toxicity and Fair Play Implementing more robust anti-cheat measures and better reporting systems to combat toxic behavior and cheating. Promoting positive behavior via a player report rewards system.
Accessibility of Events Making in-game events more accessible by offering multiple time slots or on-demand access can ensure that more players can participate, regardless of their schedules. Additionally, providing event replays or highlights can keep the community engaged.
Variety in Game Modes Introducing more varied and experimental game modes can keep the gameplay fresh. Rotating limited-time modes (LTMs) and incorporating player feedback on these modes can provide diverse experiences.
Cosmetic and Progression Customization Allowing more customization options for cosmetics and progression systems can enhance personalization. For example, offering players the ability to customize their HUD, game settings, and progression paths can make the game feel more tailored to individual preferences.
Community Involvement — Wider Point on Game and Project Increasing community involvement in decision-making processes, such as voting on new features or content, can make players feel more valued and connected to the game’s development.
