CoD players impressed by \u201cpromising competitor\u201d XDefiant: \u201cWhy can\u2019t CoD do this?\u201d Ubisoft \/ ActivisonThe Call of Duty community has a debate brewing, sparked after a promising CoD competitor, XDefiant, has impressed some players. For quite some time, Call of Duty and Warzone have been shadowed by a cloud of disappointment. Players have long taken issue with some of the latest updates, particularly over pressing issues that they argue make the game unenjoyable. However, a new game is on the horizon. Despite it being in its early stages, Ubisoft\u2019s upcoming XDefiant has already impressed the CoD community, with some labeling it as a \u201cpromising competitor.\u201d CoD community impressed with Ubisoft\u2019s XDefiant XDefiant is Ubisoft\u2019s free-to-play arena shooter, bringing together the Tom Clancy universe. The game was first announced in 2021 and is now finally entering its closed beta testing. Several content creators have already gotten access to the beta, and they\u2019re certainly impressed by what they\u2019ve seen thus far. KARNAGE Clan\u2019s CEO Landon claims that XDefiant is already a promising competitor to Call of Duty. Listing the slew of features the game delivers \u2014 many of which CoD fans have wanted for years \u2014 has got the community excited. \u201cIt seems like they\u2019re going to have strong communication with consistent changes based on community feedback,\u201d said Landon. \u201cWe genuinely need a Call of Duty competitor, especially with the state COD is in right now. It\u2019s good to have competition and I\u2019m excited about what XDefiant has to offer.\u201d Players have already discovered how to slide cancel using the game\u2019s movement mechanics, which has got fans reminiscing about the controversial feature that was once prevalent in older Call of Duty titles. According to CoD YouTuber Rara, XDefiant delivers where CoD doesn\u2019t. \u201cBro what the f**k. Why can\u2019t CoD do this?! xDefiant lays it all out. I\u2019m streaming this all week. Skrew cod,\u201d he said. On the other hand, some aren\u2019t hopeful for the new FPS\u2019 future past its initial hype. \u201cKinda seems like another Splitgate scenario like last year to me. Not denying it\u2019s what the community wanted but without Call of Duty in the title it seems it\u2019s just gonna be another rinse and repeat,\u201d one player wrote. It\u2019s not the first time Ubisoft has tried making its mark in the competitive FPS genre. However, it may be time for a new title to finally dethrone Call of Duty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
