til tf2 is just call of duty with 9 classes and a comic look
realistically unless valve changes the general $$$ system of artifart we can probably expect it to float around the same numbers as tf2 long-term
It's important to note how obscenely weak this launch is for Artifact.
This game is trying to ride off the success of Hearthstone and Dota 2. Dota 2 being Valve's largest and most popular product besides Steam itself.
And it only barely beats TF2's concurrent players. TF2 being Valve's weakest product that's still considered supported.
"Supported."
I knew you were going to post this, verbatim.
Not my fault you baited me.
More like you intentionally misrepresented what I said to throw out a completely unoriginal and wholly predictable zinger.
I know you understand how the word "considered" modifies the word "supported".
It's okay, most of your contributions to any thread end up being passive aggressive anyway. Come on, I know you understand that conversations involve more than simply berating people.
TF2, CSGO and DOTA2 increased from their launch numbers so long term numbers are much more interesting to me than launch numbers. I think they have a solid if unspectacular launch. Could go up but from what I've heard it seems like they need to continue to make monetization changes though I haven't been following the game too closely.
Perhaps the context wasn't clear--I'm referring to how you waste time criticizing fellow posters over minor irritants like some grouchy old man.
I'd prefer criticizing people who will respond over endlessly throwing the same criticisms at an entity that will never respond.
You're right, Valve won't respond. Valve as an entity has no feelings and isn't a participant in this conversation, which means they're open season for critique. Criticizing people on Facepunch over trivial annoyances is simply impolite.
we're 29 post away from the end of the thread, you're better off using these on something more reasonable like ideas for the new thread instead of figthing over petty semantics.
129 posts away, actually.
i can’t believe, how fast this thread went.

Im personally convinced randomcrits are healthy for the game and aren't negatively influencing anyone but elitist tryhard crybabies
ASIC WAS A FLUURY SOCK THE ENTIRE TIME
ABORT ABORT
and fluury was just a garry sock
the plot thickens

this guy
and yet 100% of your posts in this thread are zingers/callouts lol
Not the least bit surprised, and even with the monetary scheme implemented I'm not certain it will effect its record in the long term by a significant margin. Compared to previous title releases though, Valve isn't in a good spot and I hope to god this wakes them up.
But...
Lets hope the experience with Artifact doesn't scare Valve into another several year silence as they "rethink" whats best.
does this thread still have any of the regulars from 2012-2013-ish b4 off-topic was forbidden from the threads? TomZa here by the way
The post I made is fully made in humerous intent in which the humor lies in wasting another post in the thread limit as user "Metaru" suggested. It is supposed to be a callback to famillar forum user ASIC and thus be a humerous reference given he was notorious for thread shitting over his constant bickering about how randomcrits are totally not bad for the game while turning a discussion into a Zodiac Puzzle. This statement does not reflect my personal, true opinions and is made purely for satirical purpose.
you missed the vital ":v:"
I disagree
THAT MAKES ME MAD
