Is Concord the biggest flop of this generation? (Game Shut Down After 1 Week, Studio Shut Down - 6th Sony dev studio closure since PS5 launched)

[Champion]

Sony might be making history with this one.

I knew this game was DOA but lord have mercy. How is this even possible?

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

Naw, Xbox is



Concord is one game, xbox is an entire platform

 

[Diondon]

[Jaguar93]

It blows my mind how they thought Concord was a good idea.

I asked a question and you run in here deflecting, throwing a fanboy temper tantrum, and posting false sales info?

I showed my co-worker Concord and he didn't even know about it. I showed him the first reveal trailer and he thought it was a story based game.

The first reveal and ACTUAL game was just a stupid idea imo.
Why the fukk you waste all this time making beautiful cinematics for a reveal+ in game scenes only to have the game be a basic 5v5 PvP game with LESS content comparable to "tacked on" MP shooters from last gen?

Example:
Here's a simple "Tacked on MP" game in Uncharted 3, a game that came out in 2011.

11+1 game modes at launch

11 maps.

Unlockables in guns, character skins and customization, a coop PVE mode and there's a good amount of stuff to unlock. It's also very fun to play.


Concord for $40 has 12 maps, with 6 game modes and barebones progression systems. The game suffers from a lack of content. The number of free gunners is fine, it just should've had something PVE related in the game to go with the cinematics and a better progression system.

Hell, Uncharted 2's MP modes had more content.

You asked a what games flopped this year, im telling you

 

[gurf]

On steam? Yea. Need to see some PS5 numbers before I can say anything else.

These games need single player components. This games hook was supposed to be diverse characters, but no story modes to flesh them out?

Destiny isn't Destiny cause of competitive multiplayer. You'd think ex-bungie developers would understand that.

Honestly, I'm glad a single player game showed up and stomped this out. We need more single player non MTX games.

Sony needs more multiplayer games

Someone tell the snitch that not only is he wrong, but nobody asked him.

 

[gurf]

Si, but we don’t need stand alone gaas multiplayer games.

Give me a great story mode, with a nice multiplayer suite like games used to do it.
