While initial server issues at launch left many outraged, Ubisoft\u2019s free-to-play first-person shooter XDefiant has been on a brilliant run ever since. However, players are already calling on Ubisoft to act quickly and fix various issues. Particularly, one fan jokingly called for a petition in a May 24 post on X to get the devs\u2019 attention to fix a frustrating hit registration problem. The post caught the eye of XDefiant Executive Producer Mark Rubin, who responded by reassuring the community that the dev team is working on it. \u201cYou don\u2019t need a petition,\u201d he replied with a laughing emoji. \u201cIt\u2019s something we are working on.\u201d The news was well received by the community, with several praising the dev for addressing issues. \u201cSeriously? Thank you for being so upfront about making the game better!\u201d said one. \u201cAppreciate your engagement with the community and addressing concerns,\u201d another replied. On the other hand, some still raised concerns in the replies. Several noted that the hit registration problem has existed as far back as the game\u2019s first beta. \u201cThe hitreg problem has existed since the first beta and so far nothing has changed. What have you been working on?\u201d one player lashed out. \u201cGlad y\u2019all are working on it, but was the entire last year not spent on fixing it like y\u2019all said?\u201d said another. Still, regardless of issues, XDefiant\u2019s launch was a record-breaker for Ubisoft, which surpassed EA\u2019s Apex Legends day-one numbers. The game reportedly amassed one million unique players within the first 2.5 hours after its release and topped 500,000 concurrent users across all platforms, according to Insider Gaming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>XDefiant players delighted as lead dev confirms massive fix is on the way UbisoftLead XDefiant developer Mark Rubin has reassured players that a highly requested hitbox fix is being worked on.
