It's nice to be appreciated, but in Outriders, some players were a little unhappy that the appreciation package given to them by developer People Can Fly, came with a Legendary Item they already had, or in some cases, no Legendary Item at all. This past week PCF has remedied the situation by re-releasing the Appreciation Package, but this time, players should see a Unique Legendary.

    Anytthing to try and remain relevant and to try to get people playing this game. Really sad how this game failed/crashed, so much potential wasted...take the servers down and move on.

    They had a good track record coming in but now a days ALL of the developers are rushing games out and care little of their games.

    Everything is a cash grab now a days,geesus i lost track of all the CELEBRATIONS ,everyone is having a celebration.
    The other very common trend of late is a lot of patronizing by developers,basically everything except DELIVER.

    Covid is another ordeal,you give these studios ANY excuse and they will ride it "all night long"because you know,life is a highway....ummm yeah.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

    I don't think it's a big of a failure as you want it to be.

    How? Is there a 99% off sale I missed somewhere?
  • SandmanjwSandmanjw Member RarePosts: 531
    Has a demo.....so what more can you want?

    Try it for yourself for free....if you like it put it on your Wishlist for when it is on sale and get a deal. If you do not like it, it was free, right?

    "Re-Runs Player Appreciation Package"

    No.. no they havent. There was one appreciation package and that was given out starting June 10th.
    There was no first, no second, no reruns... it was just that one time. Nothing more.

    Eh, from the thread linked in the article

    "Appreciation Package Re-Run
    • Let's give this another go shall we? We've now re-run the Appreciation Package for all players who previously logged in and claimed it (before this afternoon), as we will assume that those players didn't receive a unique item as we had intended."

    And they even tweeted the rerun

    So... I don't know what to tell you. Apparently some people aren't getting stuff still. I logged in, noticed a bunch of legendaries in my inventory, but most of them are duplicates. Not sure which one was part of the package.

    What are you talking about? It still has over 5000 players active on Steam alone.
    I don't think it's a big of a failure as you want it to be.



    No, you're wrong, look at the statistics: https://steamdb.info/app/680420/graphs/

    The game's player base was diminishing each day, it was well below 5000 daily players and it only increased when the game recently became discounted during the Steam Summer Sale. If it wasn't for that, it would've kept deteriorating. I'm not saying the game is bad, I don't hate it, I never played it, but at least be more honest and objective about your observations, because even with this discount, the people that buy the game will also lose interest and stop playing or refund it if they are below 2 hours. The trend will continue until the problems that players have with the game are addressed, eventually the numbers will settle at one point and when that happens, it will be a proper gauge for the size of the game's player base.

    So you can't throw in numbers that are affected by current precedents such as price discount during a mass sale event.

    I loved it for the story, but the endgame meh... leveled 2 characters to 30 thats when i got burned out. I got my moneys worth out of it, just 1 euro through xbox game pass.

    Waiting for the price to drop for the PC version.

    I think you're confusing developers with executives/share holders. If you've ever created something, you would know how nerve-wracking it can be to release it to the world, and how much you love that thing. Generally you want to make that thing the best it can be. The people you're describing are the business people who only care about the bottom line. From my experience - that is rarely the developers.
