Splitgate season 0

[Theholyhogg]

Anyone been playing the beta??,took an age to get into playing an actual game,but once i was in,its been a brilliant game

Should be some big announcement today at some point  

[T Pot]

Yep it was brilliant. I downloaded this last night.

[Ry]

That looks fun as hell. Will need to remember its out tomorrow as Flight sim will be top of my agenda. 

[wev]

Might get this downloaded on PS4 tomorrow looks fun.

[MattKB]

It’s fantastic but haven’t been able to log in since the weekend as popularity has soared it seems 

[Theholyhogg]

Server shut down today, back up tomorrow at some point ,they haven't said a time yet,but they said it should be more stable.

They are also extending the beta,presumably until they can handle all the players trying to get in and play.

I've really enjoyed it over the weekend,classic halo vibes 

[Parappa]

Servers are backup for this however it seems you have to wait for God knows how long to get a game. 

 

Back to borderlands 3 it is then. 

[Theholyhogg]

Game servers are back up friday at some point which they haven't announced yet.

Had a some great games last weekend though including this one where i nearlyyyy got 30 kills and 0 deaths but died on 29 kills😬

    

 

[Robo_1]

That looks like it might scratch that UT3 itch I've had for over a decade now!

[MattKB]

I hope they get the stability sorted as this was fantastic when I played last weekend. 

[AlexM]

It looks slick from the video, Quake 3 feels.

[koefoed]

Servers are up but que times are +1h according to their Twitter.

[Theholyhogg]

Hoping to get a good session on this tonight,please don't close the servers again 🙏

[Lovelyman]

Que?

[Fletch]

This looks good fun but I take it there are problems getting into games at the moment?

[MattKB]

They’ve been increasing the scaling and are up to 100k concurrent users now. 
 

There’s a queue to get in to manage server load, last night it was up to an hour. 

[koefoed]

Managed to get in a couple of hours ago and played 4 games.

 

It is actually not bad at all, arena shooters are normally not my thing but this played really nice and was good fun.

 

The UI though, that was a mess with select switching between A and X all over the place.

[koefoed]

This is really good! I have never liked the Halo-style arena shooter but for some reason this really clicks with me.

 

The que seem to be getting shorter little by little.

 

If you enjoy online FPS you should really try this.

[Yoshimax]

This is great fun but it seems easy I dunno if it’s kids that have never played either Halo or Portal ignoring the motion tracker and just Octane from Apex’ing around like headless chickens making for easy kills but it’s great fun. I think it’ll struggle a bit when Halo MP launches and the Xbox/PC brigade migrate but coming off last weeks infinite beta it’s a great void filler for now. Teabag Confirmed is amazing.

[shirubagan]

I managed to get into the game earlier and played a few rounds. It’s really, really fun.

I dominated my first games and I'm not particularly good at shooters. It felt like I was playing against some bots, or they've made the matchmaking put your first number of games against really terrible people (even though the majority were showing high xp level). As well as people just running around nobody seemed to know/want to play the objective. I got nearly max points on oddball as nobody else was picking it up, nobody defended the VIP etc.

 

The shooting feels great, and very precise. I upped the frame rate limit and it runs very smooth during gameplay. I love the pace and its definitely got some Q3 Arena spirit.

 

One minor thing that felt a bit off was that the enemy team area nice bright red, but there's some skins that make about 1/3 not red and those players don't stand out as much.

[T Pot]

Servers seem up for this now. I got in a game with no wait.

Used this code, thanks.

 

My referral code is MLB37J which should get someone 50 coins of the in-game currency.

This'll probably seem really lame but I was super proud of this as the 2-players I killed had been sniping our team from high up in the middle of the map for ages 

 

 

[Ry]

Tried to play this 6 times. Each time either the servers are down or I'm placed in a queue. Was waiting 20 mins and gave up.

I found once it hit about 8pm I could no longer get in and was being stuck into a queue.

[Epcotman]

This feels more Halo than Halo Infinite.  It’s such a blatant rip off, I don’t know how they get away with it. Still, I can’t stop playing it. 

[Purin]

Really enjoying this. It seemed ridiculously easy to begin with but you do get tougher opponents later ime.

 

The only thing I want improved is the resolution of the textures, it seems a bit "soft" to me.

[Ry]

Managed to get in a game. Its great. I assume i was playing bots as i was doing really well😅

I was saying to my nephews last week it has an almost Halo 3 multiplayer feel to it which I think is great. 

 

There was an article (which sods law I now can't find) that some big publishers were looking to try and buy the game. 

 

Not sure how I feel about that, but I am loving the game.
