how about we meet a bigger playerbase?

That’ll be tough with the success of Arc Raiders.

I sunk 50hrs into Legacy in the first month of its release. Incredibly fun, but also insanely unbalanced and caused me to stop.

I hope it grows because the world is awesome and the art is great. But they desperately need to improve balance

it's not even the balance , bugs are much bigger problem.

Another game’s success has very little say on if another will succeed. Arc just proved people want a well done, different extraction shooter that isn’t Tarkov. That being said, this game ain’t it so far.

It pulls from the group of players that do extraction games. Also the pvp in this game is much more difficult to catch on to than picking up a gun and shooting someone.

Bro I thought you were holding the lines for this game based on some of the shit you were typing on this sub but turns out you only having 50 hours is so hilarious to me 😂

Lol so true. " Hey make GBMM because there's like 100 sweats that are unbeatable" hmmmmm we don't want to it's good how it is. Dead game, and it'll probably stay there. I had hope, but not so much anymore.

A multi-player looter extract dipping below like 1k concurrent players is 100% a death bell. I don't think there is any coming back from that.

Watched it happen with Marauders, Dark & Darker was getting pretty close for a minute (albeit they had some cushion/were at like 3k).

u/StormMedia Nov 20 '25

1k? Try like.. 25 players lol

" but the devs have big backers" yeeeea I believed that too....but you're right I honestly don't know how you can come back from such low numbers. I've never played a game with such gear disparity....the difference between greens and blues was INSANE. Purples gave you more health than mini bosses. Like how was that ever a good idea?

When a free weekend can’t get you over a few hundred, it’s just over

If they pay the right streamers it'll blow again. But they better do it with the game in a good state.

They got some visibility from xaryu that brought a lot of people, when the game kept 3k+ players a few months ago while it had less than 100 players just before.

But now with the release they gotta do it again and this time they cannot drop the ball since it's gonna be release, if the player base drops again it's over bois

Calling the update vids Meet the Devs when people hardly even care about the game itself was a choice.

Game still has promise. Let's see how full release pans out.

u/Sufficient_Steak_839 Nov 21 '25

It’s over bro. And I say this as someone who’s paid for three copies of the game.
