the main reason i'm accepting of the introduction of classes is because it's being used as an opportunity to add give everyone more mechanics as opposed to locking previously universal mechanics behind a character select screen. Every player will be able to shoot portals at any time just like SG1. They're not locking features away; THEY ARE GIVING US MORE THAN THEY PREVIOUSLY DID. Notably, every class still has a splitter (portal gun), so we still have almost the entire moveset from sg1 as every class. i'm pretty sure there are no map pickups in sg2
This. The faction system is perfect for a game like splitgate because there is 1 universal thing all factions have: Access to the core mechanic of the game, portals. I have a feeling that skill will always be more important than the 'meta' faction in this game
The trend of EVERY fps being a hero shooter (factions are the same it’s just semantics) fucking blows. Splitgate went from being even starts to now splitgate 2 being inherently imbalanced. Hero shooters appeal to casuals who want to feel powerful with low skill. They have their place in the gaming space but at this point with everything being one, the fps landscape has never felt so bland. I just can’t believe even a unique game like splitgate fell victim to such trends. It’s all just a money game to these companies. They don’t care about making a BETTER game, they just want to make one that appeals to as many people as possible (low skill players) so they can farm cash.
Ideas I like for the sequel: abilities, new weapons, beautiful look Ideas I don't like for the sequel: ultimates, hero-specific abilities, each person having different stats, (like speed, health, etc.)
It doesn’t have character abilities, the hp and jetpack are all the same despite the different looks. The only differences that were in fact confirmed was the main weapon, their utility, and then their special/ult. It’s going to behave a lot more like a loadout shooter with certain strong combinations being locked between your team coordinating the different characters.
I hope it's simply loadouts bassed like the finals except there's a shared louadout pool while the classes have a few items unique to them that are relevant to their roll
IDK I see this game more like a Class Based Shooter than a Hero Shooter. Here’s how I split the category between Hero Shooter and Class Based Shooter. Hero Based Shooter are basically Class Based On Cracks where you have stupid abilities to goes along with it. Like OW or Valorant. Class Based Shooter are basically classic Class Based Shooter, no abilities but every character are based on classes and only matter is the weapons and character’s unique traits like Speed or HP. Or some characters are on specific class that are using specefic weapons. Like BF1 or TF2.
Yeah no I prefer classic because it make people be smart on the map and actually learn how to use the portals but this is like apex which never going to play at all
Man that is a shame. I was excited for splitgate 2 given what a fun classic arena shooter experience the first one was. Oh well I guess we'll just have to wait for some other studio to make a proper arena shooter now....
Are you excited for Splitgate 2?

I kind of miss faceless soldier's not every game needs every character to have Marvel humor

@@WarpSonic no map pickups would be an extreme L
YES. YOU SIR. YOU VALID.
Absolutely agree
"They're giving us more" immediately follows with things being taken away (gamers deserve the games they get sometimes)

id be down with classes. not heroes. also the art direction seems SOOOO much better
Split gate is like a modern, actually good halo killer
@@RobbyVogel yeah that's why they dropped support for it.

If you look at what came out in 2019, it's a miracle SplitGate2 even exists.
If its a hero shooter im going to be big sad.
But the things i want in the game are. customizable Armor. weapon skins. And modular powers
I am praying for map pickups
Splitegate had map pickups so the second should
If it doesnt have one, i hope they add a seperate game mode for that soon after the launch

Heavy character reminds me of Destiny 2 Titans.

Having this sequel let's us have something similar to halo while we wait for the next halo game
Gonna wait for a while 💀💀
A phone app to learn more about the lore of a game is silly....come on buddy.
I mean if they did the same thing like 14 years ago during peak iPhone "app for everything" frenzy than maybe it'd be cool.
I think it be more of a halo reach / 4 thing where ability’s are different based on your fraction & u can add to your loadout
Man that is a shame. I was excited for splitgate 2 given what a fun classic arena shooter experience the first one was. Oh well I guess we'll just have to wait for some other studio to make a proper arena shooter now....
Who says it won't still be an arena shooter?
@@Sejikan it could be but it doesn't give off that vibe. Some people are speculating hero abilities and locking weapons for certain classes.
Brother it's just a CGI trailer 😂
@@KingOfFoolz probably just abilities per class
@@zjmstrash7181 still pretty hero shooter like. Just not the experience I personally want
Holy fuck its splitgate
@@espinita. It sure is!
I hope they keep their 3v3 ranked game mode takedown. That game mode really made the game lots of fun in its prime
it's good but i'm glad core play is still 4v4
It looks kinda like speed soft (competitive airsoft) in space.
I agree with you and I hope that you are right
Maybe you just loot accesories in the map like weapons
Really good video
Saying 2025 is crazy. I will be shocked if this thing comes out in less than a year.
thanks for sharing...
Oh thank god
I thought it would have leaned towards how destiny has warlock titan assassin but I'm it's not a hero shooter

@@scouttrooper2871 yes my bad I havent donned alot of destiny
It was confirmed on Twitter I believe that is not
@@GNE145 I say this in like the first minute of the video man 😭
@@MAGPIELEON my bad 😞, also did you hear that the halo tv show was cancelled
@@GNE145 LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Yes
2025 though shouldve kept the first game supported
servers are still online
@@WarpSonic no way? Thanks I swore I saw them get taken down
@@l0nk53the devs still play the game
honestly forgot this game even existed, so much for a halo killer.
No
That fruity character makes this a pass
All cosmetics especially paid cosmetics need to transfer forward or I refuse to play splitgate 2
@@JQDeathFromAbove96 guess you won't be playing then lol
