So what did Firewalk Studios including Claude Jerome and Jon Weisnewski (Weenieskeet) have to say about Concord on the latest PlayStation Podcast?

So I'm not the only one taking the polar plunge. I've only played it for a couple hours mainly because I work weekends. Fortunately I'm usually home around prime time hours so I usually get in during "active hours" (big fucking air quotes here) so I'm able to find matches no problem, but:It's open beta and my god it's probably the worst team shooter I have ever played. So many weird design choices. 1 shot sniper rifle kills in three bullets to the chest with a hefty reload. There's just two fun characters to play. No one plays healer. No one plays tank. No one plays together. Much of this can be attributed to it being beta but I don't think the game will ever get enough of a playerbase to actually develop a competitive meta or anything of the sort. The game's just HEAVILY frustrating as nobody seems to be able to tell their ass from their elbow but EVERY SINGLE GOD DAMN CHARACTER is ABSOLUTELY FUCKING GIMPED to the point that you NEEEEEEED your team to pull their weight if you wanna stand a chance at all. It's akin to any match of League of Legends, or trying to do a Left 4 Dead Expert with day 1 noobs. Everyone just fucks off to die in the first twenty seconds then you get gangbanged. Fun!
It's just 5 randos plinking each other to death with nerf guns, an invincible refrigerator and a huge aimbot bitch with rockets. Everyone else is filler. The minigun must be shooting bbs. The revolver guy is almost entirely useless. Frax The Lawsuit Destroyer just overall sucks. There's this weird plant person who is Tracer but significantly worse. Soldier 77 is alright but dull as hell. I don't know how'd they think, Sony Interactive, no less, that they could just release "Overwatch but wayyyy worse" 8 years late and make bank. This game can't have been cheap, but it's utter garbage.
And they'll keep comingSony not only thought this would sell, they thought they could sell 15 games almost exactly like it
Look at destruction allstars, look at fairgame$

EVERY GAME they are making is going to have the same cast of EPIC WACKY faces and sheboons and troons
The have invested years and billions in it and they will shit these games out whether anyone wants them or not
It's their money they're shoveling into a furnace. I say let them. It's funny to watch at least.And they'll keep coming
I can't give any details but I'm doing third party work on a yet unannounced game by a big company, and it's just all this shit all over again.
I'll say every male character I've seen is listed as gay or bi or pan. Not so the women.
Oh and the setting is a future version of our world fucked over by Climate Change.
They can't help themselves.
Lol, one hell of a power move to say your pronouns are "Professor" and make the rest of the company address you as such. Big Jill Biden energy there.
This stupidity infests modern shooters (singleplayer and multiplayer). It's like these dipshits have never handled a firearm or even understand what a "sniper" does.Why the fuck does it take two shots to the head to down someone with a sniper?
The people working on it literally hate guns. Well, one of the mentally ill devs does anyway:It's like these dipshits have never handled a firearm or even understand what a "sniper" does.
Hot take, but the entire hero-shooter genre is a bad idea: combining the frustrating team-reliant mechanics of a moba with the aforementioned's particle effect spam becoming a visual clusterfuck in first-person (which is why overwatch was a terrible e-sport and deservedly died). Also in the past we oft called OW a TF2 clone but this was frankly untrue as TF2 is a class-based shooter just with actual characters for the classes. Nonetheless, this game was also doomed because of the woke slop and uninspired, marvel-like art style that has been done to death. At least Overwatch had the decency to add some attractive characters alongside its woke slop - so much so that more people have gooned to tracer or D.va than probably have ever played OW.Overwatch and its consequences have been a disaster for the gaming industry

I agree and its why ultimately why a lot of games can't handle having snipers (or shotguns with realistic range for that matter) because it becomes too oppressive in the hands of a skilled player (whether via legitimate means or as is increasingly the case nowadays through aimbotting). It's simply antithetical to the ethos of a hero-based shooter in particular given the focus of team play as opposed to individual skill expression.This stupidity infests modern shooters (singleplayer and multiplayer). It's like these dipshits have never handled a firearm or even understand what a "sniper" does.
"Sniper" rifles fire rounds designed to destroy human beings with a single hit. A headshot is practically a guaranteed one-hit kill with an ordinary firearm (a simple 9mm will do), but a high-grain 7.62 or even a 5.56 out of a long rifle is going to shatter whatever it hits like Gallagher's hammer smashes watermelons. Even a center-of-mass shot is life-threatening.
This "muh balance" garbage ruins actual game balance. Want to include a sniper in the game? Make it hard as fuck to take an accurate shot (breath-holding to minimize shake, implement bullet drop/ballistics, etc.). If you think making head shots less-than-lethal is how you balance a sniper, take it out of the game.
Its known that the Canadian govt. funds some of this shit and I'm sure big corpos like Microsoft and Sony have special funds allocated to funding these projects to boost their ESG score (or whatever the newest version of woke kikery is called nowadays). Nonetheless, this game looks like it cost an exorbitant amount to make making it hard to believe this can just be written off without at least a twinge of fiduciary pain.This has to be some money laundering scam, no way anything thinks this is going to sell. I don't even think it would have sold 10~ years ago when these types of games were popular.
Is this the next step in this gender nonsense giving yourself titles you don't have? How long until one of them wants to be called doctor?
When half the roster is obese or a metal trash bin, yeah, it's certainly a heavyweight.
I identify as Supreme God-Emperor of the Entire Universe. If you refer to me in a way that isn't "His Giga-Divine Imperial and Universal Majesty", then you are TRANSPHOBIC!!!Is this the next step in this gender nonsense giving yourself titles you don't have?
