Gunrox in Steam

Reply

I saw that there are already topics about this subject from a few years ago, so I think it's interesting to revisit them.
Put Gunrox on Steam to attract new players. I've known this game since its release and still think it's one of the best in its genre. I believe it has enormous potential to bring back the large player base it once had.
People can play it on both PC and mobile, which is great! Please try to bring it to Steam or use influencers to promote the game.
I know it must be an expensive project, but the more players, the more money comes in.

While Steam could definitely bring new players to Gunrox, I can also understand berserker concerns.

The Steam release fee is only a small part of the challenge. A Steam launch comes with higher expectations for updates, moderation, support, bug fixing, and overall presentation. Steam users are also very quick to leave reviews, and first impressions matter a lot.

Another concern is that if the current community is perceived as too toxic, negative reviews and discussions could end up being one of the first things potential new players see. Recovering from a "Mostly Negative" rating is extremely difficult, even for good games.

A successful Steam launch usually requires active marketing, community management, and enough player retention to keep newcomers engaged. If those pieces aren't in place yet, releasing too early could do more harm than good.

I would still love to see Gunrox on Steam one day, but only when the game and community are in the best possible position to make a strong first impression.

I completely agree with Pólux. Steam is a great showcase, but it ruthlessly exposes flaws. A flood of negative reviews right at the beginning could bury the project for good.

My Suggestions
  • "Clean House" (Moderation): It is essential to moderate the current community so that newcomers don't run into toxicity.
  • Tests with Micro-influencers: Use smaller influencers on the current version as a safe test to find bugs and evaluate player retention.
  • Focus on Polishing: Only launch on Steam when the game is running perfectly, focusing the marketing on its biggest differentiator today: crossplay (PC/Mobile).

Important Note: If Berserker listened more to its loyal community regarding important points that could bring better features, they would have the veterans much closer and allied to the project. This alone would solve a large part of the difficulty in receiving new players, because a community that feels heard naturally becomes more engaged and welcoming to newcomers.

It won’t happen until they push a lot of fixes and anti-toxic updates. Right now they’re busy with zombie mode, after that we’ll see
