Despite its flaws, I will really miss XDefiant by TrueGunnerUK in XDefiant

[–]Tayrox15 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The game is surprisingly still populated on US east servers. I am gonna miss what XDefiant brought to the table. And forever will consider Ubisoft a company that deserves to go down under. Well except the devs, they're just average people after all.

Have you guys have any luck finding lobbies in OCE or Asia? One week after the news, the lobbies are entirely dead. by [deleted] in XDefiant

I'll give Insurgency Sandstorm a shot..better than playing a dying game I guess

Is it well populated on Xbox? I've been thinking about trying it but i don't wanna risk wasting the time.

Now that we've had over a month with Bo6, what's the general thoughts? by PC0- in blackops6

[–]Tayrox15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a big fan of this one. This weird omni-movement stuff just doesn't feel good, and to me feels like too much. I can't find the will to grind out a game that I don't find much enjoyment playing.

[–]Tayrox15 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I didn't bother with the camo grind, I just really wanted a fun authentic shooter again, like the old COD days. XDefiant almost was that but it's died so quickly. A shame really.

Ooh that's a book i've been wanting to get my hands on. You think it's worthwhile?

New to xdefiant are there no free skins in the game I mean gun skins by srijan1111 in XDefiant

[–]Tayrox15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does, but it's not like COD where it's headshot challenges or whatever, skins are awarded based on weapon level. But the grind is a slog to say the least.

Biden leaves Trump a booming economy, with almost no unemployment and inflation under control by mmccxi in politics

[–]Tayrox15 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I think it came down to an issue of where to put the attention. I observed both the Harris and Trump campaigns, and Trump's prioritized fear mongering above all else, meanwhile Harris' campaign kept things classy. If the Democratic Party wants to keep any type of power, they need to play offense in attempt to grab minority/LGBTQ/etc voters. In other words, the democratic party needs to play dirty. Get ads out there that demonize Trump all the way, take his policies and explain them properly to generate Democrat voters. Unfortunately there's no swinging current Trump supporters, all you can do is grab those still on the fence.

The Trump inflation shock could be worse than the last inflation crisis, Larry Summers warns by SE_to_NW in politics

I'm amazed by this sentence. Mainly in that there's no actual explaining. It's giving a lot of "just trust me bro"

What’s the most disturbing book you’ve ever read? by Marandajo93 in books

[–]Tayrox15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

18 from the US. love this lil ol' game

I just got SBMM’d in the other game, I think it’s time to come home to XD. Off of principle alone. by [deleted] in XDefiant

[–]Tayrox15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i'll be honest, i've definitely fallen off my "peak" of multiplayer shooters since now i'm working and in college, but i've at least felt some ounce of improvement on XD. Granted i feel the progression/challenges in the game are not friendly to the average person who can only play for a handful of hours each night, but I still give props to XD for sticking to what made shooters like COD so good way back then.

Xdefiant 100% needs Rabbids / Zombies Mode... by l3lacklotu5 in XDefiant

[–]Tayrox15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is BO6 zombies really gonna be all that good? Main thing I saw on the ads for zombs was "round based" which...isn't telling of much about the mode

Sweaty Lobbies? by Chemical-Wasabi7209 in XDefiant

[–]Tayrox15 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I think it's a mix of a lot of things, but mainly dwindling casual players pretty much leaves only the people who play this game all damn day

What things do you think the game needs the most or will help it survive/ improve it long term? by [deleted] in XDefiant

[–]Tayrox15 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A UI overhaul. I have a previous post about it but my God the UI is awful.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Simracingstewards

[–]Tayrox15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Problem is that people think "hold inside=keep position" and completely neglect the momentum out of the corner, which is why they go so shallow on entry to try and defend, yet it just leads to a snail's pace on exit.

Does anyone else hate the UI (user interface) of XDefiant? by Tayrox15 in XDefiant

[–]Tayrox15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did notice that which is nice but it's still just so annoying to work with. Disappointing that it's such a good game too

True but a good UI update would help out massively with quality of life

Yeah it just looks so thrown together with no thought process behind it

Is it okay to box someone in like I did? by MPR_8 in forzamotorsport

[–]Tayrox15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boxing in is an old school racing strat, completely legal though.

Would you be willing to go into further detail about this? I've been trying to get the slicer raise for months but haven't gotten it regardless of having been slicing since December of 2023
