Why are they letting cheaters in? Their words btw:

So it's the same bullshit argument that Respawn used when they switched from EAC to the EA in-house solution. This also happened at the same time that EA was forcing their anti-cheat solution that requires kernel access to the last 2 BF games (V, 2042) and probably the yearly ball games.
If I remember correctly, they introduced the new anti-cheat with a new season of BF2042, back then the community was quite angry because suddenly the game (including the previous Battlefield) required Secure Boot to be enabled in order to launch.
 
Could of just gave Gary mod 2 on source 2 and everyone would of been happy. I only like Gary mods for exploring people maps and the occasion interesting server that are long dead like cops vs robbers that was not RP but just gameplay.

$9.99 for no games and microtransactions

I don't even get the point of keeping a price tag on the game still. Garry built the game with micro transactions, royalty, and other monetization avenues directly in the game. Just pull the bandaid now and make it free cause 10 bucks isn't going to be the thing that stops scalpers and bad actors from abusing the economy or game.

Also most people just going to Fortnite and Roblox for custom games cause they're FREE.
 
This all could have been avoided if Garry didn't personally remove the early free version from my Steam library when it full released. Surely I would have spent enough on cosmetics for ugly mongoloid bean humans to keep his abortion afloat... he did this to himself, honestly.

There was nothing to avoid, this fate was set in stone before release, even if it was free, this would just be a taller spike with the same outcome. If anything it was a massive success to get 13,000 retards to shell out money for this at all.

It'll be fun to see the momentary blip when it goes free and then once again fades into irrelevancy.

They really should've seen this coming. Its always been hard to start an MMO, and live service is coming under more fire these days. Besides, has the market for cosmetics ever worked for a game that's not huge like CS2 or Roblox?
 
I am sad to say I was very excited for this as a programmer person when it first got announced. It was going to be a publicly accessible Source 2 SDK! It was the sequel to gmod! It would have a bunch of tooling that did away with all the inconvenient parts of gmod! It would be a new game engine to compete with Unity and Unreal! It was gonna be awesome! And then it finally comes out and it looks like a fucking web3 metaverse game with all the paid cosmetics and it turns out they removed all of the bits of Source 2 people actually wanted to play with.

I had friends who were in the developer preview who all eventually gave up on it because Facepunch doesn't know how to make an API. So many breaking changes happened during EA and even when garry promised he'd "bend over backwards to not break shipped games" they were still getting broken. Literally every architecture change they have made is for the worse. The steam reviews say that the server model is forced client-authoritative which is fucking laughable. Good luck making any remotely serious multiplayer game unless you roll your own (and at that point, why not go use Unity or Unreal?)

This is a toy engine. They have taken a mature, beautiful game engine and make it completely useless except for shitty toy games like clickers and little 2d arcade games -- stuff you can already make for free in other engines without having to pay licensing fees or compete for space with vibecoded garbage. It can't even compete with its own predecessor, gmod, since at least gmod is easy to use.

It's like if Source 2 was made by Indians.

Same here. The first time I loaded the game, I saw the citizen cartoon characters and immediately deleted the program. Months later I tried it again, enjoyed a few games, but ended up deleting it again because of the silly looking citizen characters.

I could accept the games being simple because the program was new. Thankfully I played for free when making a developer account.

Wtf is Garry thinking, trying to mix hyper-realistic textures with cartoonish characters? The clash of styles is so ugly and grating.

Is Garry autistic? Cause he has the stubbornness of one. He slowly is acknowledging that it is retarded, but is only doing half measures to remedy the sausage people issue. I argue the neck thing makes it even more uglier cause you then focus on the bulging dog eyes popping out of the characters mishapen head. And the hyper realistic textures onba cartoonish style body just looks so jarring

Anything to avoid admitting that turning it from Gmod 2 to Grobloxrustgodotsource2 and switching the engine three or four times was a total disaster and the game wasn't remotely worth it

we've entered the "Garry flopping around" stage, shuffling the project off to another FP employee comes next
 
Personally? I think it's an improvement to give the sausage player models an actual neck, but the bulging eyes and realistic textures ruin it. Right now, it reminds me a lot of that ancient "realistic Mario" image that's been memed to death:
