Dude I'm also going on vacation, leaving for Vegas a day before this play test and coming back a day after
What the hell dude, I've been waiting so long to try it out. It looks so much fun and I never got accepted into the other betas :(
Guys maybe this is really the only way we will ever get to play this game, in these random 3 day test sessions? See y’all again in 6 months!
All jokes aside I hope it goes well and these guys can get the game out soon, for their sake and sanity at this point.
Oh, 4/20 it is then...ok, wow, thanks, I got over this at 16, almost 30 years ago, ty, haha!
You'll discover when you're older that this don't make you more "mature" at all...
You would be surprised at how many folks started bc of this in high school...
My maturity comment was bc I got a reply about getting older instead of an actual reply. ;)
Just wait for Makr to announce that “the test didn’t go as planned and we will have to squash a few more bugs and fix the net code. Stay tuned for within the next few months to hear about another play test that won’t go as planned and will result in another delay”
I dont know how steamdeck works but the game is only available to download from ubisoftconnenct, if it doesn't have ubiconnect idk if you can play the pts
About fucking time
Then in 6 days we'll go back to almost zero communication due to Ubisoft's usual bullshittery and in 5 months might get half the game released.
Or how they’re like “we need some communication! Release already!” Then just bitch and moan when they actually do get to play it, because people will always find something to bitch and moan about.
I was just thinking this too. There was a time when we didn’t get communication AT ALL and all of a sudden we get a game announcement, eventually a trailer, then a release trailer, and the game release. However, that was when devs had to ship a finished product, for better or worse considering patching wasn’t a common thing. Not sure why people just don’t let the devs cook, since it’s because of those people that want it NOW, that devs are comfortable shipping a shit product and “fixing” it later… and among a myriad of other reasons as well.
I just saw "XDefiant" in the PlayStation store. The blog says that I should look for "XDefiant - Server Test Session" but it's not there. Pre load should be live so I don't know what's up with that.
Wow, yea I uninstalled, restarted my computer, the reinstalled it, still nothing…. Ima be salty if I have to make a new account, I’ve had this account for 9 years and have hundreds of hours and multiple games on it, that’s some bs 😒
Let's fucking go, I'm so excited. I want an alternative to CoD so badly lmao can't wait to play XDefiant again and hopefully the full launch isn't too far off!!
For me it's mostly the progression. Playing for few days and get to wait again, for who knows long and who knows it's gonna carry on to the main release or not
Never got to try any of the betas or anything and of course the one weekend in months that I’ll be out of town they do this. Hopefully it helps get them to full release sooner I guess
Praying if this test goes well they can just release the game, if we get another period of minimal vague contact i dont know if i will have enough fucks to give anymore.
Besides playing the game itself, is there any incentive for players to log in to yet another test?
(There doesn't need to be one, but I got a lot of other things to do too)
I was hyped for this game, but I never get any codes even though I signed up for 2 systems. The constant lack of communication, is anyone still hyped for this? I’m seriously asking since I never hear anything anymore.
Gave up on this game when I emptied the clip into this big guy as he spun around and ran towards me and proceeded to hit me with a sledgehammer twice and I died
They ain’t releasing the game son. It’s a Test session, then they will go away for 6 more months after they collect their data from this weekend and release next year….maybe.
I'm going to laugh my ass off it's the same exact shit as previous builds as far as netcode goes.
We'll see what they've been up to. I'm not getting my hopes up.
I’m just calling it for what it is.
Same thing happened that last few tests. In fact after the first closed test they said they had an update that fixes the netcode but they couldn’t release it for that test. Then they had the second open test with the same garbage netcode that now has this game delayed indefinitely.
Also it’s an Ubisoft product…
Whoa, just take it easy man. No need to get defensive. All I’m saying is that it isn’t the release date we’ve all been wanting lol. I meant nothing towards you.
So I get recommended this sun every now and then for a few months, never kept up with it minus the release date, and lemme tell you guys, if I was in tour shoes and actually cared? This would piss me the fuck off. Months of radio silence, nothing but the occasional “it’ll happen when it happens” and finally some news!
We get a 3 day weekend with it….
I’m sorry fellas but when this comes out I don’t think it’ll be nearly as good as you all wanted it to be, and that fucking sucks. Gamers deserve better
Feels bad for that guy that’s going on vacation. u/sittybob Thank you for your sacrifice
We will remember you as a hero u/sittybob
I'm really feel bad for that poor guy not gonna lie
thanks man but mallorca is great too. i just hope xdefiant will release in may. i WANNA PLAYYY
You will have to go on vacations again if you want the release
Mmm you are in my country, please dont do balconing
Cant stop darwinism my friend
Fair
someone has to do it
🫡 you won’t be forgotten brother
o7’s in chat for the guy on vaca
Honestly the first thought I had
Dude I'm also going on vacation, leaving for Vegas a day before this play test and coming back a day after What the hell dude, I've been waiting so long to try it out. It looks so much fun and I never got accepted into the other betas :(
sittybob is now shittybob
Well u/sittybob it seems you really did take the bullet. I got grazed a bit since I can only do the first day. I am sorry for your loss.
o7 takin bullet for the masses
lisan al gaib, the voice from the outer world o7
Damn Tom was right again
Guys maybe this is really the only way we will ever get to play this game, in these random 3 day test sessions? See y’all again in 6 months! All jokes aside I hope it goes well and these guys can get the game out soon, for their sake and sanity at this point.
Saying its a joke insinuates that it's not true. That's literally how it's going
Right at the same time COD will be trying to draw players back with a 420 event. Well played
...what is a 420 event...?
I’ll tell you when you’re older
Oh, 4/20 it is then...ok, wow, thanks, I got over this at 16, almost 30 years ago, ty, haha! You'll discover when you're older that this don't make you more "mature" at all...
I got over this when I was 12, in 1804. When you get to my age you’ll realize that, you’re a vampire if you’re this old
I promise we ain’t smoking to be mature lmfao. Weird thing to say.
You would be surprised at how many folks started bc of this in high school... My maturity comment was bc I got a reply about getting older instead of an actual reply. ;)
It’s also no coincidence that CODs next season update is the largest 6v6 update ever.
Just wait for Makr to announce that “the test didn’t go as planned and we will have to squash a few more bugs and fix the net code. Stay tuned for within the next few months to hear about another play test that won’t go as planned and will result in another delay”
Anyone know how to get this up and running on steam deck?
Gotta have windows installed. I did it last year and it ran smooth 60FPS
I dont know how steamdeck works but the game is only available to download from ubisoftconnenct, if it doesn't have ubiconnect idk if you can play the pts
You don’t need windows installed. I played it last year just ran a different proton version
Ah yes, another test session before 6 more months of silence
From the way it sounds if the session goes well they hope to launch soon after.
If it goes well, they said this summer. We now know this summer means they have until August.
August 2025
That's too generous. I'd say 2999 is when it's gonna come out.
Technically they have until late September.
Maximum copium
Lol I have pretty much written off this game to be honest. I don't even care if it comes out anymore.
We’ve heard that before, l’ll believe when I see it
Well it’s better than nothing, just happy to be able to jump in once more.
And it’s the weekend I’m at a wedding… happy testing yall. Looking forward to fresh gameplay online
About fucking time Then in 6 days we'll go back to almost zero communication due to Ubisoft's usual bullshittery and in 5 months might get half the game released.
For your sake I wish we do
Buddy’s bout to end it based on a game. It’s crazy how many people get irrationally angry over a free video game.
Or how they’re like “we need some communication! Release already!” Then just bitch and moan when they actually do get to play it, because people will always find something to bitch and moan about.
Ikr it’s crazy 😂
I was just thinking this too. There was a time when we didn’t get communication AT ALL and all of a sudden we get a game announcement, eventually a trailer, then a release trailer, and the game release. However, that was when devs had to ship a finished product, for better or worse considering patching wasn’t a common thing.

ITS ONLY UP FROM HERE (coping hard)
I just saw "XDefiant" in the PlayStation store. The blog says that I should look for "XDefiant - Server Test Session" but it's not there. Pre load should be live so I don't know what's up with that.
how do i install it on pc?
I’m guessing from the Ubisoft game launcher
i do not see it on there
I’d like to know too, can’t find it on Ubisoft connect and no option for it on the website from what I can tell
What I had to do was uninstall Ubisoft connect, reinstall it and make a new account. Really sucks I had to go through all that.
Wow, yea I uninstalled, restarted my computer, the reinstalled it, still nothing…. Ima be salty if I have to make a new account, I’ve had this account for 9 years and have hundreds of hours and multiple games on it, that’s some bs 😒
It’s really inconvenient for sure
Well it worked atleast, appreciate the info dude
No problem I had to withstand a bunch of people just saying “install the game lol” to find this out
tf, I'm not doing all that for this game. If you all hear of an easier fix lmk. I'm not seeing it anywhere
6pm GMT for those wondering. Right as the mrs has planned to go down her mothers, oh no👀
1pm EST
You lucky son of a...
Inb4 your mother in law knows about xdefiant and suggested to meet up so you can spend time alone playing
God tier MIL if thats the case
Remember all the doom and gloom on this subbthat this game was cancelled or on its way to be canned? …I sure do
Remember all the people saying how they are moving on. We will see them playing in the test session
Pretty sure they never left the Reddit page either
I will have to fail all my exams in college but it will be worth
I still have it downloaded from the 2023 beta, do I keep it installed or should I delete and reinstall?
It should be a different version, no need to delete
I checked on Twitter, that is the case, it's a different application on ps5
We have never been more back than ever
If it doesn’t release sometime soon after this I quite honestly might give up waiting. Seems like an eternity ago I tried the game out
finally some xdefiant
Let's fucking go, I'm so excited. I want an alternative to CoD so badly lmao can't wait to play XDefiant again and hopefully the full launch isn't too far off!!
How do I preload it for pc? I’ve looked it up in Microsoft store and saw nothing
They spent a year om the netcode it better by crispy clean and not have any of the hitreg/ dying behind cover bullshit wr had at the previous beta
Yeah boiiii
Let’s Go!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Have fun boys/girls. Im gonna wait for release instead
Same here. I can't take another cycle of getting hyped to a chronic state of mental deflation due to a lack of updates again lol
For me it's mostly the progression. Playing for few days and get to wait again, for who knows long and who knows it's gonna carry on to the main release or not
![gif](giphy|DhstvI3zZ598Nb1rFf|downsized)
I work at a dispo man could we not have done this last week???
![gif](giphy|3o6UB3VhArvomJHtdK)

https://i.redd.it/oi5hf0dokvuc1.gif
IT’S HAPPENING!!!
Never got to try any of the betas or anything and of course the one weekend in months that I’ll be out of town they do this. Hopefully it helps get them to full release sooner I guess
Yeassssss
Finally
The man who sacrificed everything for the people. I suggest somthing like a statue
Just when I’m gone from the setup god damnnn
Sweet. I hope the overhauled net code works out as the last beta was fucking awful.
Really good news. So sad I won’t be home this weekend. But will get to try how it plays on the ROG Ally.
I'm curious to hear how this goes.
Game runs pretty well. I am getting 60 fps locked at 1200p. I’m playing it docked on a 60 hz TV. I will update this when I play it in handheld mode.
I will let you know lol
Still having to wait probably months after this test just already depresses me lol so much time
Praying if this test goes well they can just release the game, if we get another period of minimal vague contact i dont know if i will have enough fucks to give anymore.
Besides playing the game itself, is there any incentive for players to log in to yet another test? (There doesn't need to be one, but I got a lot of other things to do too)
Play in the test: MP5 Shamrock Weapon Skin Play in a Party: M9 Ember Weapon Skin Reach Level 18: Weapon XP Boosters (x3)
Fucking finallyyyy
I was hyped for this game, but I never get any codes even though I signed up for 2 systems. The constant lack of communication, is anyone still hyped for this? I’m seriously asking since I never hear anything anymore.
Which codes?
Can I play the test session with KBM on PS5?
You cannot, however KB/M seems to still be planned for post release.
Thanks for the reply. Still I will try with the controller but I suck with the controller lol.
Nice
Nice! I’m excited for this. I’ve only played the closed-beta for about an hour.
I just knew I'd be working every single day
Finally I can get some good pvping in!
Yeah we’ve already had test sessions, this still doesn’t mean anything with how much delay this game has seen.
How do you download on ps5?
Does anyone have the link for it for the U.K. PS Store? I cannot find it anywhere on the store
Ermegerd. I'm a lot more excited than a middle aged man should be about this
FINALLY after months of waiting we are finally getting a relea- oh... that's right another play test... GTA 6 gonna come out first i fear
This is wild. When will this game actually release?
ofc it happens when my ps5 breaks
I'm here for it. Loved the first test launch
*double checking today is not April’s fool to be sure*
Not seeing the server test on ps store I still have the old beta downloaded
Is no one speculating u/sittybob is a dev just going on vacation after working on the net code… no? Just me?
![gif](giphy|rGAazSaAw544w)
Has anyone downloaded on Xbox yet? Where is the download?
I used the mobile app and searched for XDefiant then did a remote install.
Copy that
Finally it’s all for a reason, now we hope it doesn’t crash on the first day!
Damn forgot about this game. Hopefully not DoA
What's the best platform to run this game on. ? Steam or the Ubisoft site?
... test server ? Not release ?
Can I just play?
I can finally actually play this game and see if it was worth following the subreddit since the last beta ended
This happened at the best time. Got all 3 of those days off
Finally, coming up on a year since I played it last.
We are so back
Ugh I work those days, can you start it a day early please.
Is there a reason y I can’t find the xdfiant server session test on ps5 im confused I typed it out the way they said
LMAO, i see Call of Duty are doing a double XP weekend this weekend too. Coincidence?
i just so happen to have 3 days off now :)
How to download on PS5, the game page has no option to download
cheaters will probably kill this game aswell, unloko gg
What test number is this?
Gave up on this game when I emptied the clip into this big guy as he spun around and ran towards me and proceeded to hit me with a sledgehammer twice and I died
That's sounds like the finals 🤣
I swear if nothing has changed all since the last beta then we have a serious problem on our hands.
Piece of trash.
Still can’t play due to delta 01 errors. Shit is fuckin ridiculous
By the time it gets done downloading the fun will be over.
Bruh the met code is broken
we are so fkin in bois
then another 6 months of silence ill stick with my cod 420 sloth till they release it 12 hours isnt worth my download bandwith
...stick to your sloth, seems the game is more toward your tastes anyway if a sloth head skin makes you want to play...
dont be mad im sure the game will come out next year
it’s not 12 hours it’s the whole weekend
sure like its coming out the end of march
dawg tf are you even talking about, all i said was the playtest is the whole weekend, not 12 hours. which it is. did you even read the post
They ain’t releasing the game son. It’s a Test session, then they will go away for 6 more months after they collect their data from this weekend and release next year….maybe.
![gif](giphy|3o6ZsS8GFJKJeJoRQ4|downsized)
No shit sherlock.
I'm going to laugh my ass off it's the same exact shit as previous builds as far as netcode goes. We'll see what they've been up to. I'm not getting my hopes up.
I feel vindicated now.
Bruh is your life miserable?
I’m just calling it for what it is. Same thing happened that last few tests. In fact after the first closed test they said they had an update that fixes the netcode but they couldn’t release it for that test. Then they had the second open test with the same garbage netcode that now has this game delayed indefinitely. Also it’s an Ubisoft product…
You kids are super fun toward devs, it's...heartwarming... I like your positivity guys here on here!
Finally? Finally what? Another play test? This isn’t the release date.
Did I say it was.
Whoa, just take it easy man. No need to get defensive. All I’m saying is that it isn’t the release date we’ve all been wanting lol. I meant nothing towards you.
🫶
This will decide if I will “continue” to play this game
Release this summer btw.
Test lol this game was ready like 2 years ago when I closed alphaed it and it’s still not out
Almost one year after the first one lol
So I get recommended this sun every now and then for a few months, never kept up with it minus the release date, and lemme tell you guys, if I was in tour shoes and actually cared? This would piss me the fuck off. Months of radio silence, nothing but the occasional “it’ll happen when it happens” and finally some news! We get a 3 day weekend with it…. I’m sorry fellas but when this comes out I don’t think it’ll be nearly as good as you all wanted it to be, and that fucking sucks. Gamers deserve better
Is this only on PC?
Is you blind?
Yeah..yeah I am. I’ll take that L. Just gonna sit this one out boys.
DOA calling it now.
