Ubisoft will be shutting down its free-to-play first-person shooter game “XDefiant” in the new year.

    Based on the fact that I see a lot of posts complaining about Call of Duty on the Threadiverse, I’d imagine that there are at least some people who would be interested in an alternative to CoD.

      The thing is, there’s not a lot you can do to be an alternative to cod, without it straying too far and just slowly dying like XDefiant. Cod is just too big to die, even when the games are actually just DLC, people buy buy buy.

      The only alternative to cod that stands any chance is a remastered old cod. Ubisoft trying to battle cod was a blunder, but so is every decision at their headquarters recently.

        I can’t stand anything but hardcore mode cod anyways.

        Gunplay not bullet sponge is what I want.

        I recommend everyone try out Hell let loose

          Cod used to be whoever shoots first wins, it’s a bit grim now with all the sliding and shit.

          I’d recommend Squad over Hell Let Loose, if you want that hardcore team game.
