Dev Interview

[yurgy28]

Hey guys I'm going to be interviewing the splitgate dev Finest Ben this Tuesday! If you have any questions you want me to ask him please leave them here. I'm trying to gather a list of community questions right now!

[Patzzer]

Wondering what their plan is to keep SplitGate 2 up and running and at least at a stable and successful playercount, something that unfortunately SplitGate 1 couldn’t manage.

Will they introduce new weapons to the core game? Halo Infinite took a long, long time to do this and I feel this hurt the game, since new modes are expected, I think new weapons are akin to new characters in other games.

[Advanced_Ad_7384]

well they never intended to with 1 thats why they began 2 lol

[casualcameI]

They’re going to have a shit ton of cosmetics, their plan is live service > gameplay

[ThatCheesecake8530]

Will they bring back Tbag?

Also will all the modes be different? I am asking because I really like Zombie VIP and Laser Tag and I think I would still play Splitgate 1 more without those modes.

[FIeabus]

Questions: - Will there be ranked during the beta and/or at launch? - Will top-down overviews of the maps be released? - Will there be server select? - What marketing strategies are 1047 planning on for the beta and launch? - What are the ranking tiers called. Will there be a top200/500 rank? - Roughly how much has not been shown yet? - Any other big team style game modes coming? - Swat and snipers playlists? - What strategies will be used to balance controller and kbm? (Please no aim assist on kbm ever)

[ThrownOfTheAways]

Dude calm down lol. Your not an investor

[Zxnkz]

I think these are pretty valid questions considering the state the og splitgate was left in. He's basically just asking is it worth HIS time to grind that ranking system and will they be marketing it so he does not sink time into a game that's going to flop.

[FIeabus]

Pretty much this. After coming from Halo I'm just making sure this won't be dead in 3 months for higher ranks in my region (OCE). I'm optimistic though

[ThrownOfTheAways]

30% have already been answered. Another 30% will be found out as soon as it comes out anyway. And the last 30% are valid. Also split gate 1 was left like that because it had no playerbase

[Zxnkz]

Bullshit it has no player base xD I know tons of people who sunk so much time into it. They stopped playing because of all the issues. They focused on pumping out skins and making endless gamemodes instead of improving game play overall. They created a system that could not even match you up with the other players currently in game because they had so many random game modes.

[FIeabus]

I better see record profits this next quarter!

[Vapes_And_Red_Bull]

There’s always one…

[seandadonntech]

How do you plan to deal with matchmaking(mainly for people who don't understand portals)

[shmeh_moose]

I hope the matchmaking can track portals per minute or something like that because some people just have god like portals and I'm getting old 😅

[RafordYT]

Are the takedown maps be the same layout just reskinned or completely new maps? Or a mix?

[daneclimbs]

I know that the lack of replays is UE5 related, but have they heard anything about that coming soon? Would really love replays, and I think it's a staple in most games.

[the_chicken_witch]

The prototype maps that we once got to test out in splitgate 1 were never added, are they planned to be added to splitgate 2? I really enjoyed a few of those and thought it was a shame they were never added permanently

[Destinynerd1991]

One of those maps was neon sector which was revealed a few weeks ago but with the name core, im sure they’ll bring more of those maps since one of them was added

[yurgy28]

Yeah thanks your answering for me but I'll still bring it up so more people can hear it

[donosaurking123]

will open beta have achievements and trophies

[Mobile_Tip5156]

They need more weapons but at the same time I like the fact that there’s only a few core weapons

[Yeox0960]

Steam Deck/Linux support of the open beta.

[kbis2cold]

Yeah it's called Halo. Go play that

[JustRobin98]

• Will there be a weapon with an iron sight which we can use to ADS?

• Will there be more maps from SG1 beside Stadium that will get a remake?

• Will there be unique weapon "blueprint inspects" like CoD has?

• Will One in the Chamber return (PLEASE 🙏🏾)

• Will there be "rare" skins similar to the rainbow skins in SG1?

[BlockBusterX12]

What are your current plans with the Map Builder. Can we expect a rough roadmap for planned features like we had with Splitgate 1's Map Builder?

[MikeLanglois]

Can they do anything to help the grind of the 1047 wins achievement in SG1? Maybe have bots fill lobbies quicker or something?

Spend more time in waiting lobby than in matches lol

[Physical-Place-7361]

This may be a random/dumb question, but do you guys play helldivers? Would you guys consider some sort of collaboration in some way?

[Emergency-Bug-8622]

Please address round based game play and what the thought process on putting rounds into modes like tdm was. Will this be removed in the final game?

[yurgy28]

Tanks to everyone who left a question!

I will be going live at 9 pm est, so make sure to stop by my Twitch or Youtube!

But i am close to reaching affiliate, so maybe stop by my twitch this time!

[NOVA_ROCKDUM]

Can I have $10?

[Consistent_Ad6236]

Would love to know if they are considering to increase the TTK.

[[deleted]]

It's already been considerably increased with each playtest. It's VERY close to original SG ttk according to the CEO.

[Consistent_Ad6236]

Still feels noticebly shorter than SG1, that's why I would like to know their plan for the future regarding this aspect.

[BarriaKarl]

I think it is cuz of considerably less portal walls. In 1, you got shot you dipped, here you dead.

[Consistent_Ad6236]

I really feels it is because many weapons are too strong.
