XDefiant Review - Underwhelming

  • XDefiant is finally available on Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and PC, and it's...fine in some ways and underwhelming in others. The crossover shooter, announced in 2021, features various factions from the Tom Clancy video game universe (and other titles) battling it for supremacy. Or something - it's never really explained.
    There are five factions, four available at the outset; 14 maps, several well-designed and others not so much; five modes, ranging from deathmatch-focused to objective-based; and a staggering lack of features. The Practice Area is mysteriously locked. You have no limited-time modes, kill cams or even a proper Career page to check your stats.
    While the gunplay, customization and overall map design of XDefiant are worth checking out, this free-to-play shooter still needs a lot of work, especially with hit registration issues, poor netcode and much more weighing it down.

      It’s just one person per review. So even if 10 reviews gave it a bad “ score “ it’s only 10 ppl who didn’t like it . I never trust reviews. If it looks interesting I watch some gameplay and look to much smaller UA-camr to see how it plays the pros and cons based on the gameplay.

    Honestly it's been a long time since I had this much fun. MW2019 is what hooked me up to play Arcade shooters again. I stopped playing COD since MW2 2022, because of the horrible monetization. Each COD title is just the same game with just different maps and maybe weapons. And I don't see a point anymore to pay 70 quid for the same game.
    XDefiant delievered exactly what I wanted from a game. No SBMM is what I've been waiting since the legacy MW series and I do feel like I get more kills and more adrenaline while playing. I don't know I kinda got addicted to XD now. I've been having a lot of fun so far. Hopefully Ubi doesn't fuck this up.

      Some gamers will, others won't. It's a bit overhyped in my opinion and their one-word title description of the game is pretty accurate: underwhelming. It doesn't mean it's bad, I'll be the first to admit the game has its moments and I'd put my average rating of it at 7-7.5/10 (which isn't bad, I'm convinced the GPA system has everyone thinking a 7-7.5 out of 10 equals F tier).
      I just found myself getting bored really quickly with the game. The sandbox is heavily limited, the movement goes from feeling clunky to coked out super sprinted zombies from Black Ops Cold War, and there are inherent design choices that I, as a CoD player (my main arcade FPS of choice) who preferred the Modern Warfare series (back in the day and with MW2019 vs Cold War and Vanguard), there is not much for me to like in the game inherently. I find the longer TTK doesn't promote higher skill, it just promotes cheesy movement mechanics akin to cheese combos in Mortal Kombat as well as making snipers exceptionally strong with very little skill in using them.
      The abilities are also highly annoying and I personally think that they detract from the game more than they help it, but again, I mostly play more grounded FPS games so I'm most likely never going to really understand it (the only 'hero' shooter I ever liked was Siege and that was solely because of the slowed down gameplay and it being a thinking man's game). Bottom line, if you like the game, play it and write appreciative reviews. If you don't like it, write disappointed reviews. If you're somewhere in the middle like me... get ready to get shit on by everyone for constructive criticism/taking a nuanced outlook.

    The game is underwhelming, it's true. Ubisoft is more known for quality instead of quantity in games. You could say Ubisoft did not aim to innovate to appeal to the player base. Everything you see in the game have been done by COD or Overwatch. What they did to appeal the player base was 1) make the game free and 2) ditch SBMM, which the online-aware, youtube-watching, "higher-skilled" part of the COD player base eagerly wants. Even though I agree SBMM should be dropped by COD in casual pubs for the most, that doesn't make this game inherently good. Objectively the gameplay, gun-game mechanics and movement and even graphics are way outdated, and like previously said it brings nothing new to the table. If Activision decides to drop SBMM and put the game on Game Pass, this game has nothing going for it.

      2. If you value your time invested, arbitrary systems like double XP wouldn’t be necessary to validate the time you put in, especially since that’s a limited resource. Daily challenges are just that, something you’re given to do three times a day minimum and afterwards your progression is halted. The standard experience you get as an “average” should be a little higher while still rewarding “higher skilled” players.
      Be open to criticism, don’t just accept what’s given in front of you. If you’re having a good experience, then more power to you but you have no reason to tell others why they’re not allowed to complain especially if they want changes that can improve the quality for not just themselves but others.

Gameplay is decent imo, especially if you play in FC6 & The Division maps it will give you a feel ala overwatch but not quite the same which is good.

    Aslan‘s wall hack is available to them every time. I don’t know that I’ve ever actually activated Ashlan‘s ultimate or ultra or whatever but the very first ability the default ability is invisibility. The alternate choice is pinging and displaying locations of anything within your range to all your teammates by the way, it’s just technology in a video game and it’s again not technology. That’s impossible. We have those kinds of technologies now, not nearly so convenient to use but we can look right inside of building and see you sitting at your TV. US government can shoot a gun so powerful that they can kill you while you sit at your chair watching your TV. These are not magical abilities, nor far-fetched we have technologies similar to this. It would not surprise me if we don’t have drones for instance, that can fly a payload of maybe not napalm but some kind of explosives And then be the operator when the drone gets close to its target and we’ve been dropping napalm the whole region since Vietnam these are not magic. They’re just technology tools. Each faction brings tool and each faction fills a role whether it be tank DPS crowd control I’m sorry not crowd control but the Intel one I don’t know where that really fits in. It’s still a support class, but but she can also be a pretty damn good sniperto heal I mean right out of the trifecta healing tanking and DPS. Let’s call it tanking because two of them are support characters in the end. The fire is bullets are literally setting people on fire and there are challenges to get kills while people are affected by shit like that.

    Have been playing since launch. The game is pretty fun, and in the balance of CoD meets Hero Shooter, it inclines more to the CoD side.
    As of now, the game has some technical issues as in hit detection, server stability and slow progression towards leveling weapons.
    If those things can be fixed/improved in the next couple weeks, game's got a future for sure.
    Plus, I don't doubt more modes gonna be added, but the ones we have right now encourage a less CoDish style ( all of them are objective based, but one)

    No, it isn’t. The ultras are not in any way game changers unless they just happen at the very end to allow somebody say to push the cargo further than the other team and then the time runs out or something, but they’re not really game changers you can wipe the entire team, five times the team might still win and by the way and KD don’t mean shit just like overwatch holding the position you’re supposed to hold pushing the thing you’re supposed to push those or what win matches you could literally win a match in this game and a game like overwatch without it actually firing your weapon

I played 30 min and I have no desire to play more honestly. Also graphics are garbage up close and walls lack good textures. Man They need to market the crap out of the finals. It's so much better of a product and deserves so much more praise despite it's "short comings" The base game is a billion times better than anything else out.

      TTK is fine, because it's the TTK the game has and you have gun duels where the person who is better at tracking wins.
      If you say that TTK could use some work because CoD has a shorter one, then why doesn't CoD have a shorter TTK too? It is way too long when you compare it to games like Escape From Tarkov, Valorant or CS 2. What ever answer you have is the same reason why XDefiant has a longer TTK.

    This game just has bad game design man. I was playing the escort mode on some map and you spawn and have to run down a long corridor with one exit and it’s just a pinch point for 4 enemies to farm kills while they only need one escorting the robot because they basically had our whole team trapped for the 30 seconds that the robot was in that area. It’s small stuff like that and the fact that the movement speed is so fast most of the game modes are just people running in circles to run up behind you which is super obnoxious to run 5 feet from spawn and somehow have 3 enemies behind me. The graphics are sub par especially for a shooter made in 2024 by a triple A studio. Gunplay feels icky to me and the controller settings are bunk seeing as the highest sens settings for controller still feel super slow with the ability to make ads super fast for some reason but not look speed. Case in point I played a few games and deleted it because this game is hot ass.

    Perfect review! Exactly how I would have done it too. I also think that the character movement in this game is a little janky coming from The Finals player. I wanted to like it but the amount of grinding necessary for weapon upgrades and the level of cosmetic customisation is just off-putting. It just didn't give me the mind trigger of love at first match like The Finals did.
