Ian Proulx, CEO and co-founder of Splitgate 2 maker 1047 Games, speaks on the ambitions and design philosophy for the sequel.

1047 Games writes: "Steam Charts don't measure fun.
They show one number, one platform, at one given moment. They don't show the full picture of what it feels like to actually play, and they definitely don't capture the community that's actively helping shape what Arena Reloaded is becoming [including upcoming content like Arena Royale]."

The multiplayer shooter will return to beta as more layoffs hit 1047 Games
But… he went on stage and said his game was “F’n awesome”. You can’t be wrong with that much conviction. Can you?
I didn’t touch Splitgate 2. I did play the first Splitgate for maybe 10hrs. The game felt like it lacked its own identity. Even with the portal mechanics, the bland weapons, art and maps, made the game come of as a wannabe, less refined Halo.
This game is for portal jumping sweats. The no portal mode was probably where I had the most fun but it gets boring quick

A decent successor that expands on the original, but never really surpasses it.
I never have seen anybody asking for factions.
