However, the faction will be available to play during the entirety of the Open Session and players can complete the Ubisoft Connect DedSec challenge to permanently unlock them at launch. When XDefiant launches, the fifth faction, DedSec, will be available for purchase or will be earnable through XP progression. "We're going back to the server type we originally anticipated and prepared for we've tested it like crazy and know that the server infrastructure works." While those were largely resolved by the end of the Closed Beta, Rubin says the Open Session will be a much smoother experience. To fix the bug, the team had to reconfigure the servers used for the test, which led to some of the unexpected glitches and crashes players experienced. According to Rubin, the night before the Closed Beta went live, the team found a bug that could only happen live - it didn't present during any testing with bots, QA, or Microsoft and Sony's validations. Players should also notice improved server stability. There are caveats to any netcode, but we should see in the Open Session much less getting shot around corners, even if there's some ping differential between you and another player." "From what we've seen, a lot of those issues have been vastly improved, and one of the reasons we want to do this Open Session is to stress test the new netcode system before we go live. Rubin is hopeful the new netcode will fix the issue. One of the biggest changes from XDefiant's Closed Beta is its new netcode, which, according to Rubin, took top engineers over a year to create, and is a complete rework of how the server and client talk to each other and prioritize messaging.ĭuring the Closed Beta, some players found themselves getting shot from behind walls, or would die after running for cover behind a corner. The team behind XDefiant made several updates to the game after the Closed Beta to improve player experience and prepare for launch, and Ubisoft News caught up with Executive Producer Mark Rubin to learn more about some of the updates players can expect. Additionally, anyone who participated in April's Closed Beta will be able to participate in the Open Session's early access, starting today at 10:00AM PT.
