My knee jerk reaction is that the rumors I heard that the game isn’t in a good place might be more then rumors. That sucks, I was really excited for this one, I hope it turns out great.
My guess is that the game gets really repative because that is kinda the Tyranid style. Waves and waves of teeth and claws. Maybe some variations, but how long can you send swarms of the same guy before its boring.
I guess Vermintide and 40k version (can’t remember name) make it work but they are very different games.
It says the beta was to test multiplayer so hopefully that means the PvP multiplayer mode and not the campaign co-op mode. If so, I’m fine with that; the pvp mode looked interesting but that’s not what I’m really buying it for.
Oh so they’re just going to do beta testing on the users anyways, just after release…
Is that not the purpose of a beta? That doesn’t seem like a good sign.
Traditional, pre-2006, beta tests were bug hunts in feature complete software. Then public beta tests became a thing that rapidly evolved into marketing for a finished game. Most public betas don’t see any bugs fixed on launch.
Not just marketing, they’re often also a load test for the networking infrastructure. Not much change to actual gameplay though.
