XDefiant dev claps back at players who say they do \u201cnothing\u201d to fix the game UbisoftXDefiant\u2019s executive producer has slammed the community for being impatient while the devs work on fixing up the game. XDefiant couldn\u2019t have gotten off to a better start for Ubisoft, as the first-person shooter launched to a reported record-breaking debut for the publisher. However, despite that initial success, there\u2019s been a slew of growing concerns over the game\u2019s number of issues. Particularly, many players are frustrated with \u201cinsufferable\u201d movement mechanics, with some corners of the community calling the shooter a \u201chopfest\u201d as players can spam jump with no punishment. Despite the devs acknowledging the issue and confirming they\u2019re working on a fix, frustrations continue to grow. \u201cNobody wants a shooter with kangaroos and bunny rabbits. What happened to just gunfights and reaction time? Everyone always exploits and ruins it and the devs do nothing,\u201d a player hit out on social media. The complaint prompted a response from XDefiant\u2019s executive producer Mark Rubin, who lashed out explaining changes can\u2019t happen instantly. \u201cWhat are you smoking? We said we are fixing,\u201d Rubin hit back. \u201cYou think there is some magic button that just instantly changes everything in a matter of minutes.\u201d \u201cWe have to make the changes then we have to test the patch (3 days) then it has to be scheduled for platform testing. Takes time,\u201d he explained. The devs have already committed to fixing various aspects of the game, with XDefiant\u2019s first update arriving just a few days after the launch, bringing FPS improvements and other stability fixes. However, there\u2019s a long list growing for the Ubisoft team, with numerous changes expected after demands from the community \u2014 especially when it comes to the \u201cridiculously overpowered\u201d sniper rifles and lack of flinch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
