JB was hitting that copium HARD thinking this game was going to survive lol. I don't even like/play COD anymore and I could see the writing on the wall--BO6 was always going to kill this game.
Your first mistake was thinking Ubisoft ever gave a shit. A small team indie studio gives a shit. A billion dollar company like Ubi doesn't give a shit. They don't need logic when they don't give a shit. The logic is Ubisoft wanted to cash in on the call of duty formula with XDefiant and capitalize on anti-SBMM sentiment. They didn't. It's worthless to them now.
Ubisoft is a billion-dollar company that used to be worth ten billion. The mishandling of xDefiant is just one example of how they are fucking everything up big time
while you are right about ubisoft, i believe that XD was not killed by the publisher, but the studio. We all give slack to MR for good communication, yet many if not most of the decisions killed the game slowly.
I never understood it either number 1 Ubisoft is known for abandoning online services 😭😂 and 2 Fortnite looks 4x and sound better than this crap game. Anyone playin this could have a much better time playing csgo 10+ year old game because that’s what xdefient looks like
Let it be known that this was the same guy that championed Mark Rubin's dumbass comment of 'if you don't like it, leave' to the players that didn't like it and left. I will be drinking the tears of all the XDefiant content creators over the weekend.
I can see it now "Xdefiant was never suppose to be the game that lasted it was suppose to set the groundwork for Mark to make the true Cod killer Ydefiant"
Love it here on December 4th telling people from the past that the game is done, and no marathon my friends, the guy that made the video I hope he got paid good from x defiant, because credibility level got down.
lol 0 I honestly don’t like the cosmetics in xd. I was also able to get the battlepass without spending a single dollar because of Ubisoft challenges/ free battlepass tiers that give u credits
@ Good! The reason I said it is because usually the people that say, “It’s a free game! I’m not paying $70 for COD” are usually the same people that will always spend WAY more than $70 on cosmetics in a free to play game
@@danielblassi1029 lmao yea that could never be me i hardly ever buy skins. i was more pointing out how much more i like the gameplay in xdefiant than cod
@ I’m not the biggest fan of Xdefiant tbh, I don’t like how there isn’t a lot of progression. I don’t like the camo system personally. I also think the movement feels clunky personally. I do agree the maps are 100 percent better than the current COD maps we have gotten. No SBMM is nice but the game just gets boring after a while for me.
I tried to tell people in the comments of Xdefiant videos for months that the game would be dead not long after BO6 released and it would probably be by the end of the year. I was told I was dumb and that the game was thriving and doing great and would be around for years. 😂😂😂😂 Welp, here we are and what do ya know I was dead on, I DON'T MISS. The copium will finally die.
I was done with FPS games but XDefiant brought the magic back. I can't believe how much fun I am having on this game, it takes me back to the golden days on CoD. Plus it continues to get better and better. The amount of hate it receives blows my mind.
Man I feel exactly the same ! The game really takes me back and I'm getting as much fun as I used to on CoD4, especially when tagging along my boys from the days. I don't mind the hate, it's just how a lot of people are, especially on the internet: they complain. After all, they probably cry twice as much about a game they PAID for, oh the irony ! Meanwhile we're just here enjoying ourselves 🥳
Bro literally glazed a dying game and tried to gaslight everyone by telling us the game was going to thrive. My man I hope you don't buy stocks because you have 0 situational awareness when it comes how good or bad something is doing.
as much as i wish that were true i personally dont see that being the case. For US players right now the game probably feels like its thriving, but being in the EU west side im already feeling the player numbers drop. I see the same names playing in my lobbies every day, past 9pm i can be waiting 5+ minutes per game. The other day it was midnight and it took 35 minutes to find a match. Thats scary that in the whole of west europe i couldnt find 12 people playing this game at midnight. admittadly from 6-9pm this game has people playing but any other game i play at midnight has people playing so its worrying how this game doesnt.
not even remotely close. I would be surprised if ubisoft is still around by 26. xdefiant is trash and was trash from the get go. I definitely don't need Sheldon to tell me the opposite either.
@@cheech9802 I like that you just assume anyone that doesn't like this trash must play cod lol. Haven't played a cod since og warzone and blops2 before that. Quit riding game companies weens, guy.

Maybe it's just I like playing some less popular modes for variety like zone control, occupy and hotshot, regardless I also realize it's weeks before season 3, hope we get a resurgence in players then.
There's over a million people playing X Defiant. At least, that's what I'm seeing on the player count websites. I don't see how that could possibly be interpreted as "no players...' The game I play the most is Quake Live, which has like maybe 500 players, and that game has been around since about 2009.

XDefiant is pulling similar numbers to halo and destiny’s current state in terms of player counts. If season 3 is a hit. XDefiant has the potential to be a top 5 game again.
XDefiant is function over form, simple as that. When I very first saw gameplay I thought the game looked a little janky, but when XD finally dropped I had never played an FPS so smooth. Even after all of the strafing and movement nerfs, it feels amazing to play and most importantly, its fun.
@rebcommando587 I'd say it's in a perfect spot already, I mean I rarely ever lose gunfights to bunny hopping enemies, I rarely ever come across anybody doing it full stop lol
This age poorly with the news today 😭…I was telling everyone this game wasn’t good with how clunky it was. And literally said this game will last the max of a year
@ so a month off if that… technically 7 months bc theirs almost no one playing it so it’s basically got killed today. And to put more wound to injury then announcing it will be shut down in June will make less people going to play it now bc why would u if everything u grind for is to nothing
One thing I appreciate about the "slow" approach they take at putting out new content, is that I finally can play a game I never feel OBLIGATED to play, be it not to miss on exclusive stuff, or keep up with the game altogether, there's none of that to me in XDefiant. It doesn't matter if I want to spend time on another game instead for a while, whenever I'll feel like going for an oldschool arcade shooting session, I'll be glad to come back to a known place that hasn't been flooded with cosmetics, events and patch notes for the time I was away ! And that's a relief since classic CoDs are pretty much dead for good. No game will ever be just like CoD4, however XDefiant manages to somehow bring me back to that exact place where the only thing that really matters, is feeling good about going on a killstreak, clutching that B-point capture, and so on !
This video should either be deleted or left as a monument to your rare misstep in foresight. Unfortunate that this game's potential was wasted, but Ubisoft's poor business tactics and lack of consistent updates put this one six feet under.
I don’t delete videos on this channel unless they need to be re uploaded. Everything in this video I stated were opinions on why I believe the game will stay alive. I don’t see any reason to take it down.
Yeah XD is great. The maps all flow so well. Each map has a different style based on game mode. I've never been spawn camped. Matchaking is good. The movement is solid. It's really refreshing.
@kplayzxp2376 you guys always say that yet you weaklings ran tf away bro...come on now load up get yer shit pushed in then run back to wacc azz xdefiant
That game is just as bad--BF content creators glazing it hard while hating Battlefield, despite DF being a carbon copy of BF 2042 but somehow worse lol

@@CoreyArsenault-c8t?? You get 2 maps for game modes like tdm and domination and 1 for linear modes every 3 months this is not bad we will literally eventually have so many maps if you play a 3 hour session you wont play like half of them
@@CoreyArsenault-c8tI mean I see Air and Space(the newest 6 v 6 map) an okay amount and they dropped a new Escort/Zone Control map called Signal. Currently has its own playlist. Pretty good. If I had to only have 1 map a month, I’d definitely be looking at XDefiant to deliver. Every map in the game flows well and is beautiful. Quality over quantity and in years to come, there will be 15-20 good/great maps vs them just pumping out bad content. You should hop back on for Season 3. Killcams, Prestige, weapon mastery 2.0, camo challenges, 3 new weapons, new faction, 3 more maps(2 6v6 and 1 Escort/ZC) and the big netcode update. It’s gonna be pretty beefy. I’m personally excited for the future.
Xdefiant is a doomed game. There are too many cheaters and none of them are caught or banned. This causes players to stop playing Xdefiant. PC cheat software, Cronus Zen scripts, ReWASD software... All of this will cause Xdefiant to go under.
I quit the game a while back, they nerfed sniping hard on rollers, wasn’t viable close range no more as it was on launch. I’m seeing the game is dying says everyone and that. I come to this video and am half thinking it’s cope, I mean the game clearly isn’t doing the best but yk I’ll see it play out. Just saw that game is shutting down for new players and fully in 6 months. This video was truly cope, it took 3 days from genius to joeover. The game was fine at it core but slow updates, horrible progression, cosmetics, monetisation and battle pass were really the death of it. They caught the bolt with Hyperscape and let it go, same now with Xdefiant. ggs. good run.
I love xdefiant, but with long queue times and after those long queue times 9/10 matches you run into full 6 stacks with level 200-300 players while you get danny no thumbs on your team makes the game just not very fun. I want to play and love this game but i dont have time to play that much to be waiting 2-5 minutes for a match only to do alright but get rolled because i never have a team and have to play against what would be an MLG try hard sweat team. I pray to god that the game will be “fixed” and improved to a point where the player base returns. I want to play!
@ i used to find matches instantly too. The population over time has really dwindled. My account is level 128. Its not like i didnt play the game. Im not in a giga dead region, im NA east.
@@TheHollowBladethis is why this game is destined to fail. They need players but talk shit. Id never go back to xdefiant. I hate the fans of Xdefiant. I'm glad they are struggling
I think one thing that will really get eyes onto this game would be adding already created Ubisoft characters to each faction as a reward. Say you do all the challenges for DedSec and you unlock Adam Francis. Say you do all Echelon’s and you get Sam fisher. Then assassins creed you get Ezio. You get it?
Damn I actually liked this game, guess yesturday was my offical last game. I refuse to play a game that is getting shut down. No point in grinding anything. Had fun while it lasted, but its time to move on
having enjoyed fps since bo3 and 4, xdefiant has the feel of old school cod before it was ruined, yes there’s work that needs to be done but i’m very excited for the future of this game
Remember guys, after a lot of deep research, it was jbowens opinion that XDefiant and Ubisoft can be trusted, looks like JBowen cant be trusted at this point

It doesn't matter if I want to spend time on another game instead for a while, whenever I'll feel like going for an oldschool arcade shooting session, I'll be glad to come back to a known place that hasn't been flooded with cosmetics, events and patch notes for the time I was away !
And that's a relief since classic CoDs are pretty much dead for good. No game will ever be just like CoD4, however XDefiant manages to somehow bring me back to that exact place where the only thing that really matters, is feeling good about going on a killstreak, clutching that B-point capture, and so on !
"whenever I'll feel like..." - More like until June 3rd 2025...
Now this game funeral has been officially announced 😢
Press F to pay respects.
Congrats on 50k
@@colbygmusic thanks man!
congrats! @@JbowenDaMan
This aged spectacularly.
This video should either be deleted or left as a monument to your rare misstep in foresight. Unfortunate that this game's potential was wasted, but Ubisoft's poor business tactics and lack of consistent updates put this one six feet under.
I don’t delete videos on this channel unless they need to be re uploaded. Everything in this video I stated were opinions on why I believe the game will stay alive. I don’t see any reason to take it down.
Following up on this
This game is a blast! Uninstalled call of duty
Yeah XD is great. The maps all flow so well. Each map has a different style based on game mode. I've never been spawn camped. Matchaking is good. The movement is solid. It's really refreshing.
I uninstalled XD and gave been back and bought the battle pass but this game is rubbish. Been on bo6 bought the BP it's lit
@@FrankDAtank-d7o yeah people in COD’s low skill brackets would think its good
@@FrankDAtank-d7olmao protected bracket ai in youtube channels is crazy😂😂😂
@kplayzxp2376 you guys always say that yet you weaklings ran tf away bro...come on now load up get yer shit pushed in then run back to wacc azz xdefiant
Facts! That is why I can't wait to see this game within 2 years now
You still have time to delete this comment
@ 😆 😆 😆
Well well well 💔
Move on to Delta Force.
That game is just as bad--BF content creators glazing it hard while hating Battlefield, despite DF being a carbon copy of BF 2042 but somehow worse lol
Would be fun, but isn’t enough like COD to last on this channel unless I post very little of it. Maybe I’ll make a second channel to discuss the game? We will see.
Great game but I haven’t played lately but it’s a great COD alternative no doubt about that
yeah...about that
And as you say, you be soft is cheap but you’re bleeding money they need hits and they haven’t been putting out much hits at all. They literally almost kill off the assassin Creek ip by missus it
Bruh they’re shutting it down😭😭all that hope for nothing, loved the game at first
No hope man, all that matters is if you had fun or not. I had a blast and enjoyed every minute!
Xdefiant understands what an FPS should be. Cod doesn't.
Understands it so much it's struggling.. content creators are putting recruitment videos out to save the game everyone wants 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@FadeMaster24maybe reduce the emojis you use and try to use your brain instead to understand what he is saying, before commenting the most dull bs ever, just saying.
is that why the game is gasping for breath as some how people are still playing COD.
@@SpottedHares we both know that 99% of cod players are yapping about the games being trash but still buying it every year, just because people play it, doenst mean its good, lmao.
@@SpottedHares cod players like pick me boys staying with their toxic gf together, just because they are used to the relationship, it doesnt make the gf better in qny way.
And once again, you’re so biased you don’t see that you’re bleeding money they are going broke
This video aged well
"Nothing competes with Call Of Duty?"
Knock on the door..."Who is it?" "Grand Theft Auto!" 🎤💧
Ngl, I completely forgot about Xdefiant
@@Carrion-0409 what games have you been rocking the most lately? I’ve been hearing some cool things about stalker 2
I stopped playing after I realized the one map a month wont even be playable in normal modes always
@@CoreyArsenault-c8t?? You get 2 maps for game modes like tdm and domination and 1 for linear modes every 3 months this is not bad we will literally eventually have so many maps if you play a 3 hour session you wont play like half of them
@@CoreyArsenault-c8tI mean I see Air and Space(the newest 6 v 6 map) an okay amount and they dropped a new Escort/Zone Control map called Signal. Currently has its own playlist. Pretty good.
If I had to only have 1 map a month, I’d definitely be looking at XDefiant to deliver. Every map in the game flows well and is beautiful.
Quality over quantity and in years to come, there will be 15-20 good/great maps vs them just pumping out bad content.
You should hop back on for Season 3. Killcams, Prestige, weapon mastery 2.0, camo challenges, 3 new weapons, new faction, 3 more maps(2 6v6 and 1 Escort/ZC) and the big netcode update. It’s gonna be pretty beefy. I’m personally excited for the future.
@@kplayzxp2376 the last call of duty had 19 6v6 maps in one year and all of those are playable in tdm
Aged like milk
It's over for XDefiant bro just let it go
It’s confirmed, the obituary is written
Respect for keeping this up
of course, nothing to hide!
Is he still a genius 😂 cod gang or don’t game
Xdefiant is a doomed game. There are too many cheaters and none of them are caught or banned. This causes players to stop playing Xdefiant. PC cheat software, Cronus Zen scripts, ReWASD software... All of this will cause Xdefiant to go under.
I quit the game a while back, they nerfed sniping hard on rollers, wasn’t viable close range no more as it was on launch. I’m seeing the game is dying says everyone and that.
I come to this video and am half thinking it’s cope, I mean the game clearly isn’t doing the best but yk I’ll see it play out.
Just saw that game is shutting down for new players and fully in 6 months. This video was truly cope, it took 3 days from genius to joeover.
The game was fine at it core but slow updates, horrible progression, cosmetics, monetisation and battle pass were really the death of it.
They caught the bolt with Hyperscape and let it go, same now with Xdefiant. ggs. good run.
I love xdefiant, but with long queue times and after those long queue times 9/10 matches you run into full 6 stacks with level 200-300 players while you get danny no thumbs on your team makes the game just not very fun.
I want to play and love this game but i dont have time to play that much to be waiting 2-5 minutes for a match only to do alright but get rolled because i never have a team and have to play against what would be an MLG try hard sweat team.
I pray to god that the game will be “fixed” and improved to a point where the player base returns. I want to play!
i find games literally instantly. get ur ping up don’t blame the game.
@ i used to find matches instantly too. The population over time has really dwindled. My account is level 128. Its not like i didnt play the game. Im not in a giga dead region, im NA east.
They could make it so you play solo against a 6 team so you don't have to worry about a no thumbs since it bothers you that much
@@rebcommando587 your sarcasm is much appreciated and will certainly help make the game better.
@@TheHollowBladethis is why this game is destined to fail. They need players but talk shit. Id never go back to xdefiant. I hate the fans of Xdefiant. I'm glad they are struggling
This aged well 😂
Sadly 😩
LOL 😅😆
Dam just 3 days later! 😅
I think one thing that will really get eyes onto this game would be adding already created Ubisoft characters to each faction as a reward. Say you do all the challenges for DedSec and you unlock Adam Francis. Say you do all Echelon’s and you get Sam fisher. Then assassins creed you get Ezio. You get it?
Damn I actually liked this game, guess yesturday was my offical last game. I refuse to play a game that is getting shut down. No point in grinding anything. Had fun while it lasted, but its time to move on
having enjoyed fps since bo3 and 4, xdefiant has the feel of old school cod before it was ruined, yes there’s work that needs to be done but i’m very excited for the future of this game
Number wise xdefiant is 2nd but game wise it’s 1st
Game wise its shutdown 2025
@ this is a massive L for the gaming community you guys have no idea how bad this is
@@elfuture3542 Hahaha
@@elfuture3542There’s a bunch of other games to play buddy
@@saltoftheearth13 name another free FPS with no SBMM and devs that listen to the community ill wait actual retards
This aged horribly lmao
This aged like a grape turning into a raisin
I know you're gutted by the news man . . .
Glazing often leads to disappointment.
@ because he’s passionate about a game he enjoyed? lol who are you people
This is more on Ubisoft than XDefiant
Call Of Duty is gonna take down itself at this point with the serious drop of players on BO6 and their dumb practices
Lost most of its playerbase moved on and it will be shutdown by the end of season 3 but yea it won’t die 😂
Remember guys, after a lot of deep research, it was jbowens opinion that XDefiant and Ubisoft can be trusted, looks like JBowen cant be trusted at this point
😂Life as TH-cam-Gamer is hard. 😂
