release all guns —> playerbase spikes, everyone gets what they want in a week, playerbase falls and people complain bc of lack of content
release guns thru drip —> people complain they wont get their guns instantly, however playerbase will not spike then fall all at once, instead it will have a steadily increase for a short time with tiny spikes and falls each week
you see why they did what they did (the complaining happens either way)

Yeah we’re all getting god rolls within the first week

Nah, it actually just collectively made 4 people I know not play. Got them excited with mountaintop return AND rocket jump built in. Immediately upon delivering the news it was time gated. They are back to waiting for FS to see if it's good. It absolutely ruined hype around what they are trying to do. Bring, player, back. And they failed with the seasonal model.

Your first statement was made as if RNGesus gives everyone god rolls of the guns they want in like 4 hours or that everyone that plays this game has no life outside the game.

The time gate is a short term gain that’s not worth it. Repairing the general sentiment towards the game is more important right now. The way to do that is to be “generous” and appease what the community wants within reason. Dropping the time gate for this is with in reason.

It’s more risky to take that route for a company though
