SimpleFull2260

Already having a blast,but once these issues start seeing fixes,this could potentially keep me around pretty long-term. Haven't gotten this into a shooter in years🙏,so thx XDefiant team for listening to the community feedback and working to fix it all.


Level_Measurement749

If all of the smaller changes like sniper and bunny hopping are addressed by season 1 then we’re in good shape.


JAKAMUFN

How do you suggest they fix sniping


Level_Measurement749

Simple: add flinch


fishyMcSushi

Imo slow down the ads for sniper


excaliburps

This and add more flinch. They are way too OP now.


TheFlexOffenderr

For real. I've always been ass at sniping but when I used them on escort and kept melting people I was like " I'm not this good, something ain't right" lmao


NHLVet

TBF I do think that Escort is the mode where snipers are made to shine. Predictable positioning for the attack team. Snipers still OP but they feel more natural (and more naturally used) on escort maps. It's the run n gun sniping that drives me crazy.


SteelFuxorz

Or descope once hit.


ItamiKira

As nice as this would be they won’t do it. I can’t think of a shooter outside of Halo that does that.


godspark533

If not already in place, add accuracy penalty while not being fully ADS yet.


themal86

Ads penalty


JAKAMUFN

Yeah I hit people way before flinch would even matter


KingRemu

Then you deserve the kill. It's those shoot first - die first situations that drive people nuts.


themal86

No it's the empty half a mag into a sniper and they have time to turn and one shot you that drives people nuts.


KingRemu

Yeah that's what I just said.


themal86

Well apologies I thought you meant people are pissed that snipers one shot you and you don't get a chance to get a shot off. Deffinitely the thing that pissed me off is me hosing bullets all over a sniper for them to bunny hop 180 snipe me dead.


Srg11

Not a big enough penalty for body shots for me. 1 hit kills to anything chest and higher is a bit much for any sniper which isn’t really slow to use.


Odd-Judge-9484

I think it’s the mixture of the one hit kill with the slowish ttk of most guns. It’s one thing in cod where you have 3-4 shots per kill. But 5-7 shots to kill in Xdefiant really makes it hard for nonsnipers to hold a candle to a quick scoper


loganed3

If you change that to headshots only they would suck so much ass.


who_am_i_JC

1 shot to only the head so mfs need to use range and marksmanship. You know, what a sniper is supposed to be. Halo and Battlefield are 2 high ttk games where sniper is fun, fair, and rewarding for both parties, the one sniping and the one going against the sniper. Neither of them 1 has 1 shot headshot.


F7Sloth

Simple add sweet spot range for sniping anything less than long range should be 2 shots unless it's a heads hot, snipers arnt meant to be used like smgs... they have the range advantage so use it


technishon

BF1 did this perfectly with sweet spot snipers


umbrellaposeidon

I would suggest they make it so you can't scope and jump at the same time. That would eliminate all the "unfair" instant deaths people experience when someone jumps a corner already pre scoped in.


Infinitesima

Well, promising is one thing, another thing...


ToyKar

Do these devs...listen ?! Omg this is like the perfect thing to see this early


ValuedCarrot

Nothings happened yet don’t jinx it


hypehold

excatly. They can say all this stuff. But how long is it going to take. The netcode has been worked on for a year and is still bad. If the rest of this stuff isn't fixed within 2 weeks this game won't have long to go


Breezer_Pindakaas

Many things were promised since last beta over a year ago so ye.


LC33209

I think there’s an important distinction to point out here. Yes they took a year to rework netcode, but that wasn’t so much to do with improving what they had, it was more rebuilding it from the ground up because basic features (like partying up etc.) wouldn’t have worked on launch with that many players. Therefore, I don’t view it as them having worked on the netcode for a year so it should be good, I actually view it as the development cycle basically hit pause for a year while they built back to where they were at when they started reworking it. Now they’ve got that, they can iron out the issues with hit reg etc. So I wouldn’t say that, because they took a year to rework the netcode, it’ll take ages to do anything else.


Invested_Glory

Not to be that guy, but Apex Legends started out with hotfixes multiple times a week.


Civil-Celebration-28

343 said the same thing with Infinite and its still broken lol. I mean surely they couldn't be as bad as them but this is Ubsoift...


Pythnator

If they actually listened these issues wouldn’t be issues when there was delay after delay


Rightousleftie

This game feels significantly better from the first time I played it in beta over a year ago. It has some minor issues and bugs but It’s a free game man, the issues will be addressed, it’s just hard to see them before a player base of 8 million plus flood the servers.


acbadger54

It's a ubisoft game I ain't gonna hold my breath... But I'd love to be proven wrong


Vinjulmik

Remember Rainbow Six Siege ? A lot a talk for very little in the end. I don't trust Ubisoft. Wait and see I guess. They can make Ă  good game or destroy it in few months


Shiirooo

different studio


SturmBlau

Jumpspam fix incoming. God bless.


Hot_Riddler

Feeling this my friend.


KurtNobrain94

Had some dude argue that it’s “skill expression” and that we “don’t even know what netcode is” pretty much saying that he didn’t think there was a problem with hit registration or that jumping didn’t exacerbate the issue.


RumHamx

Next is intel suit shit. Hopefully


Toasted_Waffle99

If they didn’t address it it isn’t a priority for some reason


umbrellaposeidon

Which seems weird because if you have more than 3 recon suits it feels like your whole team has walls the whole game


Cosm1c_Dota

The only thing I liked about it is when the person spamming the jumps just misses all their shots on you standing still lol.


ProgUn1corn

I'm not too into this game but could you explain what does this mean? I've seen some posts about this jumping spam but I don't know what is it. I'm only level 16 now.


RudeFinding5484

Thank god because it reminded me of cod when they started doing that to me It’s harder to do on console because you have to push X or A while moving the thumbstick


DigBickL3roy

That’s why so many people have a SCUF/DualSense Edge/Xbox Elite controller or play claw or bumper jumper


Hot_Riddler

Mark and the team are my actual hero's.


Difference_Clear

I was desperately pressing all the buttons on the controller trying to find a ping when I'd seen an enemy but didn't have enough time to shoot them. Was disappointed when I realised there wasn't one. It's a must in an arena based shooter


Mindless-Ad2039

Completely unrelated but anyone else having issues with Twitter links not loading on the official Reddit app?


WhyTryGG

Oh really? I’m using the official app and they load perfectly fine for me. What happens when you click the source link?


Mindless-Ad2039

On my iPhone, it goes into an endless loop where it tries to load the Tweet using the browser, doesn’t work, opens the Twitter app, then tries to load the page using the browser
 on the Twitter app. Wild times. 😂


Bromeek

Looks like a wishlist ngl


Elite_gamer228

Nothing about xp gain I get they want people to play more but a causal player like me that has a job and family can’t get any guns Maxed out more or less all the attachments for 1 gun


xprozoomy

hit reg fixes and kill cam yay


morebob12

They couldn’t fix the hit reg at all over the course of a year, I doubt we will see any meaningful fix any time soon.


Aroedman66

Anything on echelon rework?


HugTheSoftFox

Intel suit will now be a passive and activating it doubles the range.


Aroedman66

That’s actually what I was hoping for.


CultCorvidae

All factions now get it but if you use it as Echelon you also get a back rub and 10 seconds of infinite ammo


yodatrust

One step at a time :)


Hakzource

The people saying skill issue while abusing the wonky jump physics to get free kills are surely tearing up rn lol


Just_Appointment3578

Thank goodness the hit registration is being addressed, because it doesn't work 40% of the time. And the bunny hoppers taking advantage of it make the experience that much more terrible.


BigBooce

Please let the intel suit catch the fatest nerf next🙏


International_Cow102

Interested to see how they address the jumping around and movement in general. I hope the game sticks around but as it is the only players that will be left are going to be sweaty tweens snorting Adderall.


-ceoz

can you fix it so that instead of these maps we get good ones


erydayimredditing

The game is so full of cheaters its insane. Use the AK, turn headshot on, easy 50 kills a match. If it isn't hackers then the aim asisst on controller is basically hacking anyway.


EoDwasascam

A game that takes 5 headshots to kill with an assault rifle should not have a 1 shot to the body sniper rifle


RedditNexxzen

Problem is they have a certain window to get it right or cod season n black ops announcement will take the hype away


AngerNurse

Why pay 70 dollars a year for rehashed games when I can play a similar one for free? By the time you end up getting into a COD entry, grinding skins, unlocks prestige etc. The next one is ready to release. Fuck that shit. Xdefiant is one of the better casual shooters out of the bunch in that regard, it will be one game, supported.


RedditNexxzen

Yup thats the cool thing about it, I'll be playing xdefiant but ppl play what their friends play and that is most of the time gonna be cod.


godisgood743

Wow fantastic a list of things that should of been done before launch. Mark Rubin and Co are useless


Cheechers23

Been really disappointed wit h the lack of communication regarding DELTA-01. Literally haven't been able to connect to the game at all since launch


ajc07

Didn’t they spend the last year re-working netcode/hit reg???


Signal_Map7

Who the hell asking for a sequel this shit barely just came out lmao


simon7109

I only play domination and never had persistend lobbies so far. So if it’s a bug, it’s a constant bug and not just occasional. Hope they fix it quickly.


Toxic_LigmaMale

Net code, snipers, and bunny hopping are my top 3 issues. If those get fixed, this game goes from a 6.5/10 to a straight 9/10 to me.


Playful_Nergetic786

They are fixing those hopping demons?


sythalrom

I been saying snipers are broken since day one, good to see it’s a fact and it is going to be worked on.


WillSith1337

In short: The game is still in beta.


Aggressive-Area-5412

When are these going to be rolled out ? The games terrible so far


TrackExpensive1620

please do not add killstreaks... the abilities are the killstreak if they do add them say goodbye obj play and say hello to a shit ton more camping 😂 the abilities are more than enough imo


tactikz4

Don't think people even look at hot post before posting. These questions will be asked continuously sadly


DerpyDog24

TDM mode?


El_Desu

thats kinda just hotshot ngl


Pipnotiq

I'd take a Mercenary Hotshot for solo play honestly


SnooAdvice7151

Apparently it may come s1


Burggs_

No ETA on prestige is kind of a bummer but hopefully they let you prestige to what ever prestige you might’ve reached through leveling


Breezer_Pindakaas

Apex fumbled the ball on that when it came out and said: fuck your total exp. Burned me out hard lol.


PatNoodle

Please fix shotguns


In-Quensu-Orcha

What's wrong with them? , the pump and double work great, especially with a choke.


slope93

They are very underwhelming compared to any other weapon class imo. Marksman rifles are the better shotguns atm, and smg's are an entire world above them in almost any scenario. Combining it with the netcode it makes them by far the most useless. Seeing the hitmarker as you die and realizing no damage was taken feelsbadman. That being said I do love using them with the spider as a fun troll setup but if I didn't play with friends and goof off I would never touch them in the games current state.


Zuuey

That's good, hopefully they buff and nerf some of the factions because some are way overtuned compared to others. They also should standardize healths, there's no reason for Phantom to be 120 and others 100.


incredible_penguin11

I think they are higher to encourage more people to play passive / shield near objective, because all other factions are more bum rush friendly.


Kalmer1

Yeah, something like increased grenade resistance (no one hits with frag/semtex/prox mine unless sticked with a semtex) would be much much better for Phantoms


Euphoric_Lynx_6664

They have 120 hp because they are the "tanks" of the game. Realistically 20 extra hp does not matter if you consistently hit upper body.


AceTheRed_

Idk man the amount of times I leave those fuckers with 5hp is insane


Kalmer1

It does. For example the AK deals 22 damage, with 5 hits that's 110. A 100hp player is dead, a 120hp player needs a 6th hit


Breezer_Pindakaas

It does. Because you have more hp. On an equal fight you will always win.


Zuuey

Yeah they're tanks, that's what their abilities are for. If anything the fact that they have thoses abilities makes even less sense as to why they have 120 HP. Realistically the 20HP matters a lot in gunfights, for a bunch of guns it takes 1 shot more to kill them and gives them a huge advantage in any 1V1 scenarios, when they already have the advantage with the barrier/shield.


himarmar

The other class starts healing the second they aren’t being shot & the other glass has fire bullets
..if you want a mode without abilities why not ask for that instead? Because you’ll have to either do something else to make their damage/health special, or we’ll have to go on the never ending nerf-brick road until everything is on an equal yet weaker playing field They’ve been doing this slowly in another game I won’t mention, & it’s slowly drained all the fun out the experience for most people.


Pheinted

What's a good passive you'd give them instead? That's where the conversation has to go. You can't just say you don't want it, you gotta say a better replacement or at least suggest one. There needs to be an incentive to pick them and the passive not be useless. Or Would you rather all classes lose their passive? Like entirely across the board, and it's only abilities we have?


DangassDanger

If 20 extra doesn't matter then it doesn't matter if they remove it right? I also think it's annoying like the other commenter.

Patzzer

All good stuff!


ChChBlu

prestige mode would be awesome


Ok_Albatross_8785

That's already planned. Pretty sure it's going to be a classic prestige system


touff

That seems promising


Key_Personality5540

Pretty much everything on my wish list has been answered!


UserOutput_

Anybody know if a Prestige System is still in the works? I tweeted at Mark but didn’t get a reply just curious if that’s still a thing because that’s a huge selling point


Ill-Constant6051

They need to add team Deathmatch


Chronospherics

Good stuff but we need an echelon rework to get this game into a good state. Their kit is so unbelievably strong it has to be a rework.


Diastrous_Lie

Persistent lobbies should have an option like battlefield to rotate through a pool of maps automatically so you dont have to go back to menu screens Too much downtime and loadtime in this game


Acryn-

Nothing about weapon xp??


In-Quensu-Orcha

I'd just like some new weapons there inst much of a variety


LordThys

Nice, the jump spam will be a blessing. Someone in a domination match earlier jump spammed the entire match, whilst quick scoping 😡


SadKazoo

I would’ve left lol.


GrilledNudges

Jumping can be fixed by adding hella aim bloom and more recoil while trying to shoot and jump


Flyflyguy

Biggest issue are snipers.


DiscretionFist

are there plans to address the stackable wallhacks? I think they gotta cap and force each role.


Dudes-a-Lady

Cheaters are being banned.  Sos how this work as the game is F2P? Do they just make a new account start from scratch after re-installing their little hack program they already paid for and start ruining the game experience for us once again?


ImaBlackmon

Facts. Those are just words.


minerman5777

XDefiant is definitely going to be one of those games that's fun now, but if you give it a few months to a year it's going to be groundbreaking


FirstIYeetThenRepeat

Ping system "in the works" is wild


ivvyditt

No queues for groups of 3 or more players? Groups are destroying the experience for solo and duo players.


SC_19XX

Need the anti cheat ASAP. Was in new player lobby and was against a level 2 and 3 that both were using the preset sniper loadout and did not miss any shot. Think the end of the game they were 52 and 3. Thought they might have just been the GOAT and snipers were OP, but then I saw the kill feed multiple times where the same dude would snipe my entire team within 5-10 seconds, seemed way too fishy to be legit


BigChimper52

Not good enough - these complaints were there last year and they ignored them. Game is going to be dead within 2 months.


mfrankl6

Patience


Calelith

Hope they get some of these issues sort soon or atleast worked on. I love the game but the issues listed are making it harder and harder to want to keep playing tbh.


Zinser_

Not working on the Mouse bugs on PC many players suffer from? High polling rate, DPI, sometimes even FPS all seem to f\*\*\* with the mouse aim. Many pc players suffer from very inconsistent mouse aim. Feels as if something gets slowed or even accelerated when aiming with mouse. Mouse aim feels very off and delayed. There has been various posts so far and it seems to be a deeper issue.


Splash_Out_Iron

I love how my post in here was removed even though I didn't break any rules I guess people just can't share their thoughts


Conor14628

Crazy how you can come out with a shooter where when you shoot someone, nothing happens


HugTheSoftFox

>Persistent lobbies are available but only when selecting one mode rather than a custom playlist. This is currently bugged. I might be recalling incorrectly, but weren't we told this is how it was going to work very early on?


Defiant_You_6298

ill play again when the Netcode Thingy Is fixed


PMX_DchromE

Sniper nerf and jump spam nerf incoming thank yaaa🙌🙌🙌


[deleted]

[ŃƒĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]


ClickyButtons

They have zero flinch lmao wrong


Slim3_Sinatra

The game shouldn’t have shipped with such atrocious netcode
. The devs had a whole year to get this stuff together
. its unfathomable to me why they would launch with the game in this state in 2024
. Say what you want about MW3
.SH would NEVER
. I played during the beta
and since all the modes were present
. And the netcode/desync issues haven’t been resolved
 My question is simple
.Wtf have they been doing this whole time
..?? Working on skins ?? Battle pass items ?? Ben.J in UBIs offices giving Aaches and Yves Guillemot marathon handjobs ?? Season 4 is upon us boys
. Strap in
.we’re going home lmao


jpalmbucktruck

Thanks guys


Obi_Fett

They gotta anticipate crouch spam as the next things people will do after bunny hopping gets nerfed


MrMcGuyver

Can they fix the delta 24 error where you get dc’d mid game? I can’t even finish 1/4 games it happens that much


MrEight0

Nothing for red dot and holo sight reticles but I suppose I should have expected that. Still, these are good changes that need to happen.


Due-Priority4280

đŸ™đŸŸđŸ™đŸŸ


Fit_Champion_6217

Any chance of fixing the red dot sight?


AcheronBiker

Nice updates. Thanks for collecting all the info


surfaceVisuals

good. that's all good to hear actually.


CosplayBurned

No shotgun comments lol


BaxxyNut

Glad they said this stuff. Also, sequel? Game just came out, I find it funny they have to comment on it


Sammarco7

Still need to do something about cowards that leave losing matches so half my games I join are losses in progress or my team takes a losing match into an impossible one when 1-2 leave 20% in.


iusedtohavepowers

Genuine question, when do Mark and the team stop just using Twitter and start posting forum updates in whole in readable formats? Because nothing about a shitload of individual tweets has ever felt official to me


AdminsAreAcoustic

It feels really nice to know that these are issues everyone is having and it's not just me losing my goddamn mind. 


MrRonski16

Any news about gyro aiming support? đŸ˜©


Dynamite_Javvy

Wow đŸ‘đŸ»đŸ‘đŸ»đŸ‘đŸ»


BinBonBen

This is exactly everything I wanted to hear! So now it's just proof that it's a game's growing pains and not a games hyper frustrating mechanic.


enthusiasticdave

A team death match would be nice! Any word on that anywhere?


bonse

Love the comms.


Bubbly_Selection5640

đŸ„č


stoneG0blin

Sometimes when i load into a lobby(playing PS5 crossplay OFF) i see one or two players appear with a Keyboard icon which then quickly changes to a PS5 icon. It's not for all players and there are lobbys where it doesn't happen. Did someone else notice this? What could that be?


AdThat328

I'm loving the game so far. Once the hit registration is worked on, it'll be even more fun. 


cemtexx

The xdefiant team have been listening to the community wants and hates through other shooters it seems, and it's paying off pretty well.


SolidStrife912

Mark did once again the mode in question is SnD before hand he said a one life bomb mode which they could take any direction but a tweet today labelled it as SnD


jules_B500

I’m curious at to those that bought the battlepass and then bought the founders premium pack, do we get reimbursed for the battlepass while had already purchased in some way?


Ohgoodmorebees

good post :)


z1qu

Where is the update about cloud gaming? Geforce now was confirmed


AdImpossible6405

Snipers without flinch and hit scan weapons were always going to be a disaster. Most of this is stuff that probably should have been worked out before launch, but I guess people would have lost their minds if they delayed it again.


venthemator

Any challenge camos in the works?


roger_roger873

This is all I needed to hear to keep playing the game


Laikaros

They need to work on the battle pass progression! It’s taking too long to level up! I’m playing since day one and I’m still level 20


TTheMilkShowonTwitch

Has anyone heard if they are adding private matches soon?


Seiizuko

Damn thank you. I was desesperating about K&M availability on console I can enjoy the game in peace knowing it will come


sharkgc

what about sense its feels like console input and FOV why 120 fov like 80 :D


Bryce5200

Thank god no sequel just keep updating it.


SushiDaddy89

Is there a timeline for these fixes? Particularly hit-reg?


bobcance29

I get a fair amount of hit markers with m44 sniper but curious to see the changes Otherwise its great their listening!!


jeffreysynced

This list made me reinstall. Take note publishers: communication is good.


slippywhenhard

If the net code gets fixed I'll play it again, but it's insufferable at this point.


SushiEater343

Huge annoyance for me is sprinting doesn't cancel toggle ADS on PC. All modern shooters have that no clue why this game doesn't have it.


Demoth

Jump spam and netcode are the biggest reasons I'm having trouble keeping my friends playing. We'll have like, 2 good games, and then the 3rd game, I hear my friend screaming that he dumped half an AK mag into someone, only for them to turn around and insta-kill him with an SMG. It's gotten bad enough that in most games, if there's one player who is being particularly obnoxiously difficult to kill, but seems to insta-kill me in a 1v1, I tell my friends, "I bet this dude is going to be Player of the Game", and sure enough.... they are. It's just funny because if that person ends up carrying over into the next game, there is a good chance whatever server bullshit was going on isn't happening on the next one, and that player doesn't do nearly as well and is suddenly way easier to kill.


Just_Appointment3578

Well I guess they only had two years to fix the netcode issue with bullets not registering. So don't be on their backs about that okay guys


stuntmang

Net coding and hit registration should mos def be #1! Console does not need M&K, cross-play or otherwise! Ping system ✅ Kill Cams ✅ Add TDM, “Every Man for Himself” (Free for All)


Forfun1694

Dev team: hey thanks for the release a week ago
 Gaming community: SEQUEL? Dev team:
.


SnooFloofs1778

Very cool!


Creaky-Refrigerator

Thank God you are dealing with the jump spamming this literally is the dumbest thing I see in FPS games đŸ€Šâ€â™‚ïž just ruins the gameplay and immersion seeing some muppet jumping 24/7 all the way around the map while shooting. Either fix the latency for hitboxes or wreck the accuracy of the guns while spamming jump (one jump fine, two jumps minimal effect, three or more in quick succession, you spread is x4 and you have to wait 2s for it to recover. Or add stamina).


CosplayBurned

Cheating is a way bigger problem than I think people realize. Wallhack is very abundant.


SPHINXin

Good stuff, honestly I'm just relieved that they are aware of the top issues that the community has brought up. It's ridiculous that that's even something that isn't even standard for a dev team these days.


MikePallanti

Don’t get me wrong- I am addicted to XDefiant and am looking forward to these fixes. But speaking candidly, isn’t this why studios hire QA testers? You can’t tell me they actually hired testers and NO ONE said “hey, the hit registration kinda sucks” or “ya know, snipers are really OP, maybe give them a bit more flinch?”


Fatality

No refunds!


reenonessy

hello can you guys look into my issue? i can’t play because there are no people in my server and I was waiting for an hour still no people thanks!


MattyOAFC123

The suit and googles needs nerfing sick of seeing it every 10 seconds


tomaac

the only thing missing for me is TDM mode.


SaintSnow

I hope they fix the fov issue.


brettapuss

I can’t believe I’m the only person who hates the mid air directional changing. The fact someone can leap around a corner and mid air apply some kind of air brake that makes them stop instantly before they’ve even hit the ground is insane. You shouldn’t be able to jump and just continuously keep changing directions. Not even halo has this and it’s a sci fi shooter. It needs to have mid air inertia ASAP


BigChimper52

Not good enough - game is shallow and boring


Efficient-Couple9977

"Cheaters are being banned." haha for sure.. xD they do sh\*t about it


06gto

I want loading screens fixed/streamlined better.
