Can XDefiant Compete With Call of Duty?!



XDefiant released a few weeks ago and it’s been a surprising amount of fun! It’s a return to a more casual type of FPS fun, and …

  1. GTA and college football is the COD killer these games are all clones of a trash game to begin with… Ubisoft is just as bad and got yall thinking differently lol

  2. @TheActMan You mentioned you weren’t motivated by the progression because there were not any game changing builds. I have a few you might like to try out that are really late unlocks. The Heavy Barrel/mobility Vector is the best gun in the game at >10m so a little niche sometimes but very fun. I also like the rapid fire MK20 SSR built with a focus on ADS movement. You’re an old school CoD player so you might also appreciate the Tac 50 built completely for ADS, definitely changes the optimal playstyle for the weapon, reminds me of OG MW2.

  3. I think personally it’s too early to tell
    Let’s see how the game is in terms of online player count,sales etc in three months from now
    Time and time again when a FPS cod like game comes out, we always say this
    But then in three months it falls off the face of the earth.
    They said this about,bulletstorm in 2011 and even battlefield bad company series back then as well

  4. Their “nerf” was capping at 4 jumps for bunny hoppers which is stupid. Looking at TheCodFather for endorsing this crap as fixed. Having a single bunny hop after a jump seems like a fine compromise, better for the skill ceiling, plus significantly less annoying for everyone. You can also cancel the nerf with a single crouch or waiting half a second in between the 3rd and that 4th jump all the way ”good” players think they need. This is not fixed, this is a start.

  5. This is free to play and my PC can run it se I will give this game a try. Plus I haven't played COD since BO2 back in 2021 plus plus I'm would lile to play another shooter besides Destiny 2. XDefiant looks like it could be what Palworld is to Pokemon. Not a killer but an alternate for people who want change in the franchise but the company refuses to do anything and make the same shit

  6. I've been playing the game for a couple of days now and I'm having a lot of fun BUT I'm worried of getting borded on the long run. For now though, I'll keep having fun, I just hope new content comes out from time to time.

  7. XD is just kinda mid though isn’t it. Dunno if it’s over-exposure to more intricate games and game modes, but this style of game just seems so boring to me now, even though I loved and played every CoD since CoD 3, just seems like CoD with no killstreaks and some average abilities.

  8. It could if the devs do a good job running it and fix the net code. I think its bare bones and needs more features. I was shocked each character didnt have their own abilities… There should be a camo system. A perk system. The game just feels like a worse version of cod and some of the fanboys want to keep it that way

  9. I hate how these warzone is switching between so called “events from the past” so they can fill a gap in the story but if people don’t know about the timeline differences, everyone gets confused and then there’s a lot of mix information. Sorry for the tangent.

  10. “Describe xDefiant without comparing it to other games”
    xDefiant is a 6v6 team based shooter in which you can select different game modes that each have different objectives for you and your team to complete. You can choose between multiple factions in which you have a special ability linked to that faction.” The same way you’d describe any other 6v6 arcade shooter. xDefiant identity will be that it’s the actual good one

  11. I think the game is amazing. The maps certainly stand out for me, they’re all unique, fun beautifully coloured maps, only thing I wish is that you could go down some of the water slides or maybe have some secret hidden spots on some maps. It’s a game meant to pick up and have fun, no other game has reminded me more or bo2 or bo3 than xDefiant. Except it has better balancing and less bullshit items to die by. The game also isn’t limited to one year, it’ll be able to add content for years and years to come. Gonna be amazing

  12. old cod was ying and yang. sometimes you were the chad in the lobby and sometimes you were the virgin but a majority of the time the lobbies were pretty balanced. SBMM coupled with streaming and youtubing has been killing games for years.

  13. I really appreciate you being able to talk about the game’s flaws even thought it’s a sponsored video. It feels more genuine, like the sponsor was just a bonus tacked on to a video you were already going to make.

  14. Personally I have really enjoyed the game! It’s been fun to play with my friends and matches being played with objectives in mind make the gunplay a lot more fun too

  15. friends of mine and even myself played this game and had lots of fun, we are even calling it the cod replacement lol. I feel like this game will blow up and cod will lose players then they will start to listen to make cod better again lol or maybe not
