The drop obvisouly happened on the release date ?
I did play it, before the official release, and it was fun, chill experience, no BP, like old times.

What happened since ? 🤔


La baisse est évidemment arrivée à la date de sortie ? J'y ai joué, avant la sortie officielle, et c'était une expérience amusante et décontractée, sans BP, comme "avant".

Qu'est-ce qui s'est passé depuis ? 🤔

They promised a huge update over a year ago that never came. Seems like development has completely stalled. Huge disappointment as this was such an amazing game.

I see, For me its non sense,

You can have updates to fix just bugs, or issues. It's not mandatory to have new contents each weeks or regularly.

We lose interest in the gameplay with that kind of things.

My 2 cents,

I agree but it's sadly the new standard for mainstream gamers to be drip fed "content" like crack so if they feel a games lacking behind they go somewhere else to get their easy fix.

I've played games for 100s more hours after their last DLC release just because I loved the gameplay. So it makes my eye twitch when my people I know load into a new game and immediately comb over the battlepass n skins to see if it's "worth their time"

like crack

Exactly :(

and immediately comb over the battlepass n skins to see if it’s “worth their time”

It would be nonsense were it not for the fact that Battlebit is still in Early Access. Being Early Access implies regular updates and the fact the game technically isn't released yet. There are still bugs and balance issues in Battlebit that remain unsolved.

You are right that people lose interest but the majority of players wouldn't have lost interest if updates kept coming to this unfinished game, or at least if the developers kept their promises.

Personally I don't know now what it means early access. How many game are under early access for a time now ? 😅.

I mean if we want to talk about scams or bad dev, let's talk about shatterline 😅.

Since this post I've read steams forum, it seems dev have to much listen to bad peoples (new comings of cod players ) and I guess now they are lost on their game. They should just have focus on a bf like in my mind.

Oh yeah there are plenty of way worse examples. It's just such a shame because Battlebit had something going for them and then they messed up like this. Many developers would kill to have a faction of the exposure Battlebit had.
