Previously, we took stock of the bad review games in 2023, and I don't know if any players have been cheated by one of these games. Previously, it was a comprehensive inventory of all game types, and this time we are limiting the multiplayer online games, let's see what are the multiplayer games of those cheating dads this year.
"The Eve of the Catastrophe" - 15% positive rating, negative reviews
Do you still remember the game "The Day Before", which has been called the biggest ** by players?Previously, the official said that the game will be released on December 8, and this time there is indeed no ticket jump, but many players may think that it is better to skip the ticket. After all, the quality of the game is really hard to describe, with nearly 10,000 reviews on the first day of release, and the praise rate is only 15%, and the negative reviews are overwhelming.
Eve of the Catastrophe is an open-world survival online game set in a post-pandemic United States, where cannibalistic infected people are rampant and survivors are slaughtering them for food, **, and vehicles. Players need to wake up alone in an unrecognizable world and set off in search of answers and resources for survival.
In Eve of the Catastrophe, the infected and the few survivors who have turned into zombies will fight to the death for food and **, as well as a ride. The game is set in the United States, which has been devastated by a pandemic, and players have to fight for survival. In the game, players can search for abandoned cars, houses, and tall buildings to find useful resources.
Although the game was released this time, I believe that many players have a prediction in their minds. After all, this game has bounced several times, and the development team is quite unreliable, and many players predicted that the game would not go anywhere before it was released.
Indeed, less than 24 hours after the game's first day of release, it was already receiving a flood of bad reviews. When the game was first launched, players couldn't even search for the game's server, and after finally having a server, all kinds of slag picture quality, rotten optimization, and disconnection problems were also torturing players.
The content of the game is also very small, and it is not even a half-finished product. As a survival game, there are very few places to collect and interact in the game, and even the game characters do not have melee functions, and many players say that they can't find any advantages at all.
The most important thing is that the developer declared bankruptcy and ran away within 4 days of the game being on the shelves, which is probably the most outrageous cheating game in 2023!
"Overwatch 2" - Positive rating: 13%, negative reviews
In the past few decades, Blizzard has contributed a lot of classic games to players around the world, but in recent years, Blizzard's various performances have disappointed many players, and even made many players complain about Blizzard. Especially at the beginning of this year, Blizzard suddenly suspended its cooperation with NetEase and completely stopped the national server, which made domestic players angry.
Previous Blizzard games were all on their own platforms, and players had to say that they were suffering. Therefore, when Blizzard announced that its games would be launched on Steam, players all over the world could be said to be excited, and finally there was something to complain about. Therefore, when "Overwatch 2" landed on the Steam platform, it ushered in crazy bad reviews, and on the first day of its launch, it was full of bad reviews.
Overwatch 2" landed on the Steam platform, which also allowed Blizzard to set a new record again, although this record does not seem glorious, that is, the praise rate of the Steam platform broke through double digits for the first time, reaching a 9% praise rate, becoming the first game with negative reviews on Steam.
It has been 4 months since "Overwatch 2" was launched on the Steam platform, but the evaluation of "Overwatch 2" has not improved much, and it is only 13% of the praise rate.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that the game has received 220,000 reviews, and its Chinese evaluation is half of the foreign evaluation, and it seems that foreign players are also very dissatisfied with Blizzard.
Forza Motorsport - 39% positive rating, mostly negative reviews
As the same racing series as the Need for Speed series, the previous generation of Forza Motorsport was Forza Motorsport 7 six years ago. Therefore, when Microsoft announced that the Forza Motorsport series will be released for the first time in six years, many fans and players were still quite excited.
It's worth mentioning that this new title will also be a soft reboot of the series, so instead of using the name Forza Motorsport 8, the number has been removed, and the name Forza Motorsport has been used.
It should be pointed out that Forza Motorsport and Forza Horizon are two separate series. Forza Motorsport is more professional, a game that races in laps on a professional track.
The game allows players to own more than 500 different types of luxury cars, which is also the largest number of luxury cars that players can own in this series so far. In addition, the game has more than 800 different upgrades, allowing players to modify their cars to their heart's content.
Once you've tuned your car, you'll also have the option to take part in a variety of events at five new circuits, including the Forza series' first track in South Africa, Kyalami. At that time, you will feel a series of changes brought by the vegetation, weather, and time of the track!
Despite the grand vision of Forza Motorsport 8 with a reboot of the franchise, the actual results were not as expected. The game received a large number of bad reviews from players after its release, and although the innovation and change in the game were passable, it disappointed players in terms of game graphics, optimization, and servers.
"Dead Matter" - 20% positive rating, mostly negative reviews
Dead Matter is a sandbox horror survival game developed by Qi Games. Players will explore a post-apocalyptic world infested with zombies, building homes and defending themselves against external threats. Wander the zombie-filled streets to experience the perfect combination of horror and confrontation.
As a sandbox game, Dead Matter not only has a large world map and a high degree of freedom, but also includes all the content of a survival game: vehicles, hunting, weather, and cooking. Scavenge items in between battles against zombies to expand your combat readiness. At the same time, unlike other zombie-themed games, "Dead Matter" also adds the setting of "profession", and you will get different talent effects if you choose different professions.
Although the game is shown on the Steam platform as being released on September 16, 2023, it will open the Early Access phase. In fact, as early as 2020, the game was crowdfunded on the crowdfunding platform and opened the internal beta. At that time, with realistic graphics and interesting gameplay content, many players were attracted to pay for crowdfunding.
Unfortunately, after 3 years of waiting for many players, the content that the development team has prepared for players is quite disappointing. With poor optimization, shrunken graphics, and 3 years of still-worked-in-progress content, it's no wonder that players are bombarded with bad reviews.
"NBA 2K24" - 9% positive rating, negative reviews
Although New Year's games allow players to play new games every year, on the other hand, the high frequency of development also makes the quality of the game difficult to describe, such as this year's "Call of Duty 20" has been badly reviewed by players. In fact, it is even more common to roll over in sports-themed New Year's games, and this year's "NBA 2K24" also overturned without any surprise.
According to the official introduction, players can experience the past, present, and future of basketball culture in NBA 2K24. Enjoy basketball as your career is pure and authentic, with personalized PLAYER options. Collect legends from the world in MyTEAM and assemble your perfect roster. Compete against your favorite NBA and WNBA teams in Quick Matches for more responsive gameplay and more detailed visuals.
Although the game introduction looks good, it is actually disappointing. IGN directly gave only a passing score of 6 and gave a lot of bad reviews.
Player reviews are also mostly one-sided. Players who gave bad reviews said that the picture quality of this work is indescribable, the plot has shrunk, and bugs have emerged one after another, and it is a pure annual skin change.
"Border" - 67% positive rating, mixed reviews
It is the first work selected for the "China Star Program", a game support and cultivation project launched by PlayStation China in 2016. From the beginning of its announcement, the game "Border" has attracted the attention and expectations of many players. After that, the actual machine demonstration content announced by the game, showing the ultimate picture quality, shooting games, space backgrounds, full 360-degree stereoscopic maneuvers, etc., also made people look forward to it even more.
I believe that many players ushered in the release of "Border" with the expectation that there will finally be a top-level domestic shooting game, but it is a little regrettable that the beautiful filter was completely shattered after the game was officially launched.
When the game was released, a large number of players poured into the game, and after the initial freshness, the gameplay content was too small, the mode was not creative, the optimization was problematic, and there were a lot of bugs, so many other things were also exposed to players, which also made the game's evaluation continue to decline.
Although at the beginning of the problem, the official is also actively giving feedback, such as live broadcast to fix game bugs, launch new game modes and so on. It's a pity that all kinds of efforts have no effect.,At present, it seems that the official has given up.,The game hasn't been updated for a long time.,The promised content hasn't been realized.,Even some time ago, there was a sudden shutdown of the server.。
"Harvest Day 3" - 42% positive rating, mixed reviews
Harvest Day 2 is a shooting game that many players should have played, and the creative robbery gameplay is still very attractive. It has 420,000 reviews on the Steam platform, with a positive rating of 89%.
But after all, it's a 2013 antique game, and many places have not kept up with the times. Therefore, when "Harvest Day 3" was officially announced in January this year, many fans and players were still looking forward to it.
As a sequel to its successful predecessor, Harvest Day 3 doesn't seem to have a hard time getting a hit. As long as "Harvest Day 3" makes some adjustments on the basis of the original framework and adds some game content in the form of "doing addition", it can actually satisfy the appetite of most players.
Even if it just retains the original gameplay and simply improves the picture quality, it should be able to satisfy most players and give them good reviews, but the world is impermanent, and the performance of "Harvest Day 3" is overturned.
On September 21, Harvest Day 3 was released, and a large number of players poured into the game, but the ensuing experience was disappointing. Due to the need to keep the game connected to the Internet all the time, but the official servers are quite bad, too many players are experiencing problems such as disconnections, long matchmaking, and inability to connect.
The poor game experience also made the game overturn when it was released, and it was badly reviewed by a large number of players, and the steam evaluation of the game at that time fell to most of the bad reviews, and even the reverse output made the number of ** players of "Harvest Day 2" usher in a new growth.
"The Wayfinder" - 46% positive and mixed
Wayfinder is an MMORPG action game developed in collaboration with developer Airship, and was originally published by Starframe developer Digitial Extremes**. At that time, there should have been many players who entered the pit in the name of DE. Now, though, Digital Extremes is shutting down its publishing arm and handing over control of Wayfinder to Airship Syndicate.
In the game, players will become a pathfinder, unleashing their power after choosing their own path and playstyle, while fighting off the hostile forces that have taken over your world. Players need to enter the door of adventure with the help of a mysterious device called the Dark Dagger to customize each experience. Each adventure has unique formulators and challenges for you to summon and control, customize the beasts you want to hunt, bosses you encounter, materials you collect, and even other pathfinders.
With each hunt and exploration of the Dark Lands, players discover new locations, beasts, and materials. Use them to craft new **s and gear, and awaken powerful new pathfinders. Collect every ** and home item, read every book, and explore all locations to complete your bestiary system and level up.
It should be pointed out that although the game is set to be a free-to-play game, if you want to enter the game in the EA stage, you need to purchase the "Founder's Pack" and pay to enter. Many players have previously bought the game in the name of the publisher DE.
However, then it began to face many problems such as insufficient game content, poor game optimization, and unstable servers. What's more serious is that maybe DE also found that the game was unreliable, and now DE has also run away, which has caused dissatisfaction among many players and shouted that they were deceived.
"O2JAM Online" – 18% positive rating and rave negative reviews
Veteran players of the previous year will certainly be familiar with the game "Band Band", which was launched in 2002 and ceased operation until 2012. With the advent of nostalgia in recent years, on January 17 this year, South Korean developer Valofe's "O2JAM Online" based on "Band Band" landed on Steam.
Relying on the user base laid by the previous "Band Band", the game gained a lot of fans' attention when it was launched. However, what many players didn't expect was that O2Jam Online did not inherit all the advantages of its predecessor, but was terrible.
Not only does the game not support the function of setting **, but the game and the keys do not match each other and become a problem. On top of that, in addition to the free tracks, you need to pay $1 per month80,000 won (equivalent to about 99 yuan), which was also criticized by players. For these reasons, the game was rated only 4% positive on the game's Steam page, making it the worst game in Steam history.
On the first day of the open beta of "O2Jam Online" on January 17, it received tons of complaints and negative reviews from audio game players, and the number of negative reviews quickly exceeded the 500 mark. Except for a few players who endured nausea and gave a few sporadic positive reviews for the sake of childhood nostalgia, the Steam comment area of "O2JAM Online" was basically dominated by bad reviews.
Apparently the player resistance is working, and the steam page of O2JAM Online recently released a suspension schedule. According to the content, the game was officially closed at 5 a.m. UTC on the 24th. The refund of paid items will last for 2-3 weeks.
"Age of Discovery: Origins" - 42% positive rating, mixed reviews
Age of Discovery: Origins is a new game developed to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Age of Exploration series, based on the games "Age of Exploration 2" and "Age of Discovery" by Koei Tecmo, a development company owned by LineGames, and Koei Tecmo.
As a classic IP with a long history, the game "Age of Discovery: Origins" still attracted many players to join in the early days. Although the majority of players entered the game under the name of "Age of Discovery" and wanted to relive their childhood memories in the game, it is a pity that the game may only bring players pain
The game is filled with a lot of krypton content, in fact, this is not a big problem, after all, you can krypton on krypton, but you can't have liver. The problem is that the official even plays all kinds of sassy operations to force players to carry out krypton. Some players shared that the benefits were issued in the game, and later regretted that the benefits were directly deducted, or even deducted to a negative number, so that the players could make up for the kryptonite. This kind of operation is really rare.
"Project F" - 32% positive rating, mostly negative
Project F is a free multiplayer FPS featuring 5v5 indoor CQB+ hero skills. In the game, attacking and defending teams will fight around defensive targets known as "boulders". The defense team places the boulder anywhere inside the building and defends it for a specific amount of time. Otherwise, the attack team needs to complete the hacking of the monomer in a timely manner. Both teams also win by eliminating all enemy teams.
At first glance, the game looks good, but unfortunately it may be that the development team is not very competent. The game is made using the Unity engine, the graphics quality is relatively rough, and the gun model and shooting feel are at the average low level in indie games.
As a multiplayer game,This work can also be matched 2 3 minutes to enter the game when it is first released.,It's already a ghost service a week after the debut.,And there's no bot.,It's basically unplayable at present.。 With only one map and 6 types of guns, the game is very limited in content.
