never say never

 

[RoboFu]

lol we will see... they all want to milk every drop and if they say it will now then people will wait.

 

[Ultralow35]

Yep, better get it then rent it.
You will play it at least 2 months & it is very addictive !

I have it PS5 but what's the difference it's a online shooter when Sony takes it offline it's useless anyway

 

[Ultralow35]

Don't expect more than 80k or so units then. Positive scenario 100k max

30+ million gamers on Xbox based on gamepass numbers out there and you think only 80k is going to buy a game that that live and die on dude bro system??

Yes, given recent sales numbers, (Doom anyone?) Modern Xbox fans are definitely known to spend their money to buy Games on the system in a post Gamepass world

Not going on game pass is naive

Companies don't put games on systems if people don't buy them So Sony must think it's a good investment,,,,80k not 400k or 500k out of 30mil but 80k …….Doom don't have to sell well it's in Gamepass for a reason …..Also let's be real this game sold well because of PC players not ps5 ….

Naive? You think Game Pass is the only way a game can suceed on Xbox?

never say never

The stupid thing about that tweet (aside from the spelling mistake), is that a PS5 Remastered version came out at launch.

So not only were they wrong about a PC port, but they were even wrong about PS5. And I wouldnt be surprised if at that time of the tweet they already knew a PS5 version would be in the works. But they had to plug the PS4 game exclusivity thing trying to max out PS4 sales in case any gamers were the kind straddling the fence waiting for a next gen version.

 

[RoadHazard]

Eh...."no plans" doesn't equate to "won't ever", but not really surprising either way

"Definitely not" sounds pretty definitive.

I'm aware of it, Steam fanbase buy stuff, but we're talking about a Console which pushes the Day One Gamepass narrative, that led to the new buying habits of modern Xbox fans. Sure Games used to sell extremely well on Xbox, but that was before the day one gp bullshit. We'll see, I'm ready to be proven wrong in the end, but I'm just basing stuff on the current climate regarding Game sales on Xbox.

Article:

Amid all the terrible news for Xbox, there was a sliver of good news for players: Helldivers 2 is releasing on Xbox next month. However, the co-op shooter won't be coming to the hugely popular Game Pass service, according to Arrowhead's community manager on the game's Discord server (nice spot, Videogamer). In response to a player who asserted that Helldivers 2 was confirmed to be coming to Game Pass, Arrowhead's community manager Baskinator replied promptly, saying, "Definitely not. No plans to bring it to Game Pass."

You can't just exclude systems because it don't fit your narrative Because Gamepass is pushed on PC just the same….

That's why I said Steam Fanbase buys stuff. I didn't pay much attention to regular PC users and their buying habits over the years

Ok understandable…

 

[Gojiira]

If Sony controls the IP and Nixxes even did the port, how does Arrowhead know it wont come to GP? Do they have some kind of partial control in the contract saying they can veto GP?

Sony own the IP. Sony is publishing the game on Xbox. Why the fuck would they give it to Xbox players essentially for nothing since GP offers zero return? Honestly why are Xbox fanboys so stupid when it comes to this, its just non stop copium that Arrowhead has any say whatsoever…

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

The amount of bitching in Latam looking at social media, with this level of entitlement from some of the Xbox fans over there is amazing, people mad because the game is not coming to gamepass and saying they'll never support it

what can i say...we are based.

 

[AJUMP23]

It's coming.

Microsoft needs to pull the plug on Gamepass. It's a failed experiment.
