XDefiant Patch Makes 1 Mechanic Utterly Useless, and No Doubt Mark Rubin Needs to Roll It Back
XDefiant issues are never ending.
Since XDefiant was released, the journey hasn’t been smooth for the game. Players have been pointing out lots of features that shouldn’t be added to the game, or Ubisoft must correct them. Even the player count of the game is going through a downfall. In this situation, once again, players have discovered one thing that raises a vital question about the game’s meta.
Ubisoft worked for years to release the game, and initially, the blend of tactical shooters with customizable weapon loadouts impressed players. However, as time passes, players keep on complaining about several features of the game, and now they are even expressing their dissatisfaction about the weapon attachments.
XDefiant Meta Must Go Through Vital Changes That Fans Are Pointing Out
Players who have played first-person shooter games like Call of Duty are already aware of weapon attachments and loadouts. Whenever an FPS game provides the option to choose an attachment for a specific weapon, there must be some benefits attached to it. Initially, XDefiant had these fun features to make the meta enjoyable, but things changed after the first patch was released.
When the first patch of the game was released, it was meant to fix some issues that were bothering players from the beginning. However, after it was released, it changed a lot more things, and the weapon attachments are among the most vital. Therefore, what was released to balance the gameplay once again became a disaster.
On Reddit, players have raised this issue and reported that after the patch, barrels are not offering any substantial improvements in the range or the recoil control. Barrels are generally equipped to reduce or increase the recoil control and range of a weapon, and that’s what barrels used to do before the patch in XDefiant.

Of course, players are not happy with this change, and they want Mark Rubin and Ubisoft to seriously consider this issue to make the attachments effective like they were before.
Fans Protest Against the Change and Demand for a Renewal of Weapon Attachments
Once the matter came to Reddit, players started talking about the issue, and mostly, they expressed their frustration about this sudden change. The graph (attached to the Reddit post above) gives a clear view of how much the attachments meant for a weapon. So, they began to talk about how this situation could be solved.

A few frustrated players are questioning the relevance of having attachments that don’t work in the game.
However, some players are still hopeful about the situation and trying to figure out ways to resolve this issue.
A few in the comment section are still confused and asking about whether the loadout they are using still works or not.
Well, some players even mentioned that they have already quit playing the game because of the issues.
Ubisoft needs to solve a lot of problems to make XDefiant a successfully running game.
It doesn’t seem to care about the complaints of players, which made fans angrier.
In its latest state, reports are showing it is constantly losing active players within 10 weeks of its release.
