  1. Making this a server based game….. was it's biggest mistake honestly, companies need to stop making online only games, i hate it when mk11 did this and i hate it the outriders did this!

  2. I’ve not run into a single crash in my time playing Outriders
    It took me a little under 20 hours to beat the main campaign (though character level is not maxed, nor is all side quests beat. I’ve simply unlocked expeditions) and I’ve experienced 3 server disconnects across as many days

    So I cannot speak on any crashing issues
    I’ve gotten a crash report window when I was closing the game normally, but that’s about it

    If you haven’t tried it already, a verification of game files and/or a full uninstall/reinstall might help
    If you haven’t tried it, it can’t hurt

    Regardless, my condolences on having this issue

  3. I personally only had 1 crash on Ps5 (solo). But for me the biggest problem is the gameplay (you mentioned that to) there is just no variety. You just shoot your way forward all the time with no thing to mix it up, not even a different objective.

    One time i had i side mission where in the cutscene, a timer played. I was happs i had some variety, maybe need to play against time but then it just stopped in the gameplay???

    The mod system is cool but i got tired putting the same mods on my gear everytime i equipped something new.

    I had high hopes for the endgame but in the end i didnt even get there becausd i was tired out of poor repetition.

  4. I really like that you're experimenting with other video styles that aren't 100% percent reviews my dude 👍 Gives us great insight into your development process and connect with you on a deeper level. I've always loved how you share and express your experiences so I hope we see even more videos like this in future ✌

  5. As much as i am enjoying the core gameplay. The constant stuttering in dx12 the horrid fps in dx11 mode the crashes i have had. The completely unbalanced gameplay if your going solo. I am on a 2600x 1660ti and 16gb 3400mhz ram my pc should not be on the struggle bus with this game but this feels less optimized than AC Valhalla which still runs like crap to this day. i like outriders but i put it down and wont be back for weeks until these issues are fixed i am tired of games launching broken. Lucky for me this was a gift which means it was my friends money not mine that got burned at the pyre for this launch. But if your game is not ready delay it 3 months or 6 i do not care i just want to boot a game and play it. That should not be so hard to do in this day and age.

  6. I wonder if this game looks popular because other you tubers aren’t as honest as you in fear of losing views. Funny thing is I feel that most people playing it actually feel like you.
    I’ve tried getting into it 3-4 times before giving up.
    It’s made me want to dive into Division 2 and Destiny 2 and I’ve had way more fun in those games. I should at least thank Outriders for that haha

  7. This game isn't a live service title. After a point in time, Square is gonna push away from allowing PCF to fix this title up.
    But yeah, we gotta stop white knighting for companies that ultimately have a job to do.
    Edit: also, actions speak louder than words. The recent patch in power changes are gonna push me away from the game if this is the idea as a whole. It's a pve game. Why does it need to have power nerfing like that? Why?

  8. I respect that. Im done with people who barely finished the campaign on the lowest world tier not unlocking even one tier 2 mod (you know the GAME CHANGING ONES) telling me a review of the game just so they could post a video as fast as possible. Good job. Ill be waiting for the review when its ready 🙂

  9. As a PS5 player it is extremely jank. I’ve also had multiple bugs. I glitched the final boss by using Devastators lvl22 skill and he froze for the entire fight. It is very rough.

    But I have been having a lot of fun as a solo player. Love the gameplay but to act like its all fine besides server issues is bullshit. It’s ok to like something that isn’t perfect but don’t condone bad buisness

  10. Sucks that you had bad experience :/ been playing it since day 1 (playing it solo) – had 0 disconnects, no connection issues that I see mentioned everywhere (Although I do game around 2am so I assume server loads are less than during peak) . Runs great and only had one bug stopping my progress but leaving and re-entering area sorted it out. All in all having a blast. All that said – All games need to have an offline mode not being able to pause or potential server issues are infuriating….

  11. Sucks to hear that. I had a lot of the crashes and login issues you had on day 1, but after a couple days it was a non-issue. Both solo & co-op. I'm surprised to hear people are still having issues to be honest.
