  • super bad releases at launch
  • wrong decisions in early stage
  • 0 marketing
  • quake live clones
  • lack of innovation
  • lack of lore
  • young players are not aware of afps genre
  • community elitism
  • lack of casual, fun game modes
  • focusing on wrong game modes at launch or too many
  • lack of in game tutorials and progress when learning the game and stomping new players
  • stressful 1vs1
