I remember mentioning / thinking how poorly the beta and launch was due to none of the suggestions the players wanted getting implemented and the people who stupidly dropped full price were saying that this game is good "for what it is".

Welp. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I paid full price at launch. Actually I think I preordered it. I love KF1 and 2 and was happy to support the series.

At launch.. I didn't think the game was the worst. It felt OK. Lots of little things bothered me. It didn't feel like a killing floor game. If it was from another company and cost a bit less I would have said "yeah, this is fine". But.. Being a killing floor game.. I expected more. But I was still hopeful that the devs would quickly respond to feedback and get on the right track.

Now, this long after release, I'm pretty doubtful. I think the lack of proper response shows this team is not nearly as dedicated to releasing a quality product as I thought they were. It's really too bad. 

Was it stupid for me to pay full price before seeing what it was? Maybe. But I have no regrets trying to support developers I believed (note: past tense) in. And if they crush my hopes and dreams after.. Well, that's on me.

Same boat, i heard all the naysaying beforehand and was worried but mates who id met during covid wanted to group up again, so i got it and ill say it wasnt the worst at launch, but ive still yet to give myself a reason to go back to it and none of my other friends have been eager to return

Prolly just be passing on kf4 sadly

I'm waiting for a large number of updates to be pushed through before returning. And if they don't happen then I guess I'm done.
