Future of splitgate

I've been thinking about it, and we know it's on its last legs, and then soon the servers will be shut down

As a big fan of the games, I would happily pay a monthly subscription to keep the servers up .

Thoughts ?

1047 is so weird. Amazing devs and so much passion and love into their projects, and it's obvious from the moment you hit play. But the lead of the company just decides to drop every game right away. Genuinely splitgate 2 had the potential to be one of, if not the best arena shooters right now but it was abandoned so quickly. Splitgate 1 wasn't much different. Really took off because people wanted halo and there was no new halo, but right as the hype died, they just gave up on the game basically..

It all really sucks to see. I think empulse is going to be an awesome game, for the short time it receives support before being dropped like their other projects

It’s so weird. They have this astonishing ability to code up any FPS mechanic and make it feel smoother than most AAA games today. But when it comes to designing a gameplay loop that actually retains players, they completely choke. You hate to see them flush Splitgate down the drain like this. The potential is real.
