      Hey, publishers? Stop demanding multiplayer-only shooters. They're either the biggest thing in months or stone dead. It's a stupid gamble you will reliably lose.

      And the one cocksure nose-candy addict who does back the biggest thing in months still won't make Fortnite kinds of money.

        Splitgate was always a multiplayer only shooter though.

            The point is that no publisher demanded anything.

            The developers made the game they wanted and launched it and didn't go the way they wanted.

              This title could not possibly be any more misleading.

              [...] developer 1047 Games has said it’s taking the game off sale in order to work on it further, listen to fan complaints, and attempt to move forward.

              Just putting "unlaunching" in the title mosleads people into thinking it is going offline forever like Concord. I can imagine that is probably the article authors intention with a title like that, but that is simply not true.

                Since when has one needed to take a game offline to work on it? This is some PR excuse. I am willing to bet real money that this game will never see the light of day again.

                Not that I care about the game, but I do care about bullshit.

                  They're not taking Splitgate 2 offline, they're calling it beta again.

                  They're taking Splitgate 1 offline, apparently because it's costing them money (but possibly to drive people playing that towards Splitgate 2).

                    CEO came on stage wearing a "Make FPS great again" hat.

                    Double downs on it.

                    Now this.

                      I actually really liked splitgate 1 and was stoked for splitgate 2 but the anticheat wasn't Linux compatible so I never played it.
