Played this game as a child and I’m almost 90% sure when I played it there was little to no microtransactions. I remember fondly playing the story mode, it’s a shame to see how it has fallen off since my childhood.

This game really brought out my competitive side, I loved being a sniper and playing with players at slender forest/heaven garden. I left the game for a while and returned for the nostalgia. They had removed many old maps and there were a lot of new things, like event weapons and battle royale? It was a bit overwhelming and hard to compete with og players when you're at a very low level. It's sad to hear this from a game I used to enjoy as a pre-teen.

But this was a great video! I enjoyed it a lot. I highly doubt this game will ever get to the state it was 6-8 years ago, but I do know there is still a market for fun, arcade-y mobile FPS games like this. People still genuinely enjoy games like this, and you just need a better development team that’s more future-focused than what we have right now. As you said, innovation is key - don’t just hop on trends and expect massive long-term success!

I had lots of great times and memories. Then, I came back in 2017 cause my cousin introduced me to it, and I started to play again and the state of the game right now, its sad to see how it fell off dramatically.

Love ur video's, doing research for statements you make and come to a logic conclusion. Thanks a lot I had a lot of fun watching the 3 videos you made. Keep it up and dont feel pressure making new videos, cause we dont have high expectations.

I remembered playing this non-stop since 2016 and watched my school friends playing this since 2013. It was fun but what made it stale was the P2W feature with microtransaction, unbalanced level match, trophy loss (has been removed), and mostly greedy features. Now that it's going to be released on steam for PC, I want to give it another shot whether it has changed to a better state or not.

Here’s my take on this: I used to play this game a TON around 6 ish years ago. I tried coming back to it years later for some nostalgia and to recreate the fun I once had, but I was overwhelmed. I got a million pop ups in my face, and once I got though it all I found a million different weapons and items to pay for, with tons of new terrible features that obviously weren’t very innovative. I played a match and got killed by sweats, partially cause I no longer had any idea what I was doing since I was playing the battle royale mode that previously hadn’t existed. This game is just boring and pay to win now, and is sweat infested. It’s EXTREMELY overwhelming for any new players to try and learn this game, as it was for me when I returned.

One of the reasons I stopped playing was when they removed the ability to grind out the zombies mode for coins. You used to be able to get 10 coins a round after a certain round, which seriously helped with grinding for weapons you wanted if you didn’t want to pay the money for coins. I’d sit for 20-30 rounds and make good amounts of coins. Once they removed that, things seriously fell off. Micro transactions, lack of care from the developers, etc. I miss the game, many found memories from my childhood playing with my younger brother.

I played it almost every other day until they added the "battle royale" mode. After then I started to really lose interest as well because of the increase in monetization.

I remember when I had played this game on it's early stages, multiplayer. The chat box was always really active. Interacting with other players had been a constant thing in every server you joined in. My time playing that game had been on and off, deleting and re-installing the game again and again. It had been a cycle and eventually, there came a time when no one was chatting. Not a single chat from any player even when I had tried sparking up a conversation, no matter the server and mode, the players were no longer as interactive as they had been initially. Interacting with various players had been one of the entertaining aspects of that game, so it was quite sad when that fun aspect disappeared

You could hop in your favourite youtubers lobby and play with them for hours but no one does that anymore.

Another main problem pixel gun had was the level system. It didn't only made almost every gun 1 shot you, it also made your guns more and more useless because it armor levels. Not only that but OG players were already in the high ranks making them fight against those overlevelled players.

I found this game really early, and I remember getting online after school every day where there were a few available lobbies that would have mostly the same players I would play with every day. Then, one day, it just boomed, and all those players that i became really close with were just gone in the void of the massive player base. The game became a lot more fun, but it was kinda sad at the same time because I became close with that small group. I deadass still remember there usernames 10 years later.

I remember playing this game and made some friends that I still chat with sometimes, use to bug out of maps and bring pvp guns to sandbox, also the spam gun trick before it was patch. those were good days

I can't remember exactly when I started, it was very early on but I remember having the option of using the weapons unlocked in the campaign in multi-player, I stopped playing a couple updates after they introduced turrets and mechs. I tried getting into it back when br was all the hype but after seeing how they took away the campaign weapons in multi-player and how underpowered the defaults were compared to everyone else in the lobby, I gave it up. 9.0 was my favorite update after years of grinding but it only went downhill from there

I remember playing this in primary school, but what made me stop was that in multiplayer games you would be placed in with players who had objectively better gear who could one hit you and would take many hits to take down, just felt unfair

I remember playing this game six years ago, and getting most of the strong guns, the custom avatar feature was fun too, I genuinely enjoyed the story-mode campaign despite the story being very scatterbrained(I mean, what do you expect from a minecraft shooter game anyway). Somewhere along the way I lost my access to my original account, forgot about the game in a long time, then recently I visited again with a new beginner account, and I was met with a game I couldn't even identify.

My favorite gun was the Prototype, it was OP as hell, insta kill HS.. now you need to shoot several times for a kill.

I remember the times when I played a LOT of pixel gun 3D with my brothers, it was the only game we played. But then we stopped when it became 100% pay to win. I remember myself just going in a match and getting killed extremely fast by some kind of expensive pay to win laser gun thing.

i come from the fearless video and i usually hate people that beg to subscribe but after watching two of your videos i see great potential in this channel and really want to see more upcoming videos. Keep it up put dont become a perfectionist either ;)

I share the same sentiment. Played this game back in 2013-2014ish, heck maybe even a little later. Things were super fun and I remember being fairly good, too. Then I came back a few years later and found all of what you said. Pop-ups, pay-to-win, the fact that you pretty much HAD to buy in game currency to keep up or be any good, and the fact that the campaign STILL wasn't finished. Very disappointing.

for me personally, the game was already going downhill when they introduced gems. You could buy the best guns in the game by just playing, grinding survival arena, and it would take a lot of time but it would pay off. When they added gems, they removed the possibility of obtaining those grindable coin guns by changing their currency from coins to gems. That killed the whole point of grinding the game for me, thats when i quit.

Its exactly when i stopped to play this game because every mobile game with gems in it are pay 2 win and i knew it would happen for pixel gun too

It's wild to see how this game became so loaded with microtransactions and in the state it is. I had a lot of fun back then when it was just three chapters and didnt have the gem currency in place. Multiplayer was not as hyper competitive and usually there was some level of chat activity. sometimes people would just give up on objectives briefly and just talk and mess around during the match without killing each other. Sad that I wont ever see that kind of experience again

damn amazing work keep it up!

The days when I came home, went in my room, opened up PG3D on my tablet and using the laser cannon in Deathmatch were so satisfying. It’s crazy how now most newer gen games rely on making money instead of listening to the fans or pouring their heart out to recreate the fun

I’ve been playing the game for 6-7 years now and I’ve seen it change significantly over the years, as many others here can attest the same. Over the years I got better as I can attribute the majority of my mobile FPS skills to Pixel Gun 3D, however I temporarily left the game when they introduced OP weapons with little to no chances of obtaining them through gameplay…it frustrated me as skill didn’t really matter anymore as long the other team had more players with weapons that can knock you out in one hit. (At some point I decided I was going to rank number 1 in the survival arena, which I did with a score of approximately 800,000.) That did change when the developers made it possible to obtain those weapons of interest through ad watching, coupons, and battle pass rewards without having to spend any money…so then I was able to obtain enough OP weapons to level the playing field and I was racking up k*lls once more. It once again became the sole mobile FPS game I would always play, until the sheer number of guns and pointless updates they’re adding into the game started to take up way too much storage space on my iPad. So as of 2023, I decided to abandon my old account (it sucks the developers didn’t make it possible to transfer accounts) and made a new account on a new device. As of late, the developers also decided they were going the halve the rewards you would get from watching ads. As if they couldn’t see the writing on the wall at this point. I am still playing the game as it is probably the only game I have some level of consistent proficiency, but I am not confident about its future lest something big changes.

Hey all, retired PG3D player here. Started playing the game at around 2015, stopped at around 2022. When I played the game for the first time I was incredibly young, and the memories made from playing the game made its way into my little treasure trove. Took a long break from the game in 2018 for personal reasons, and picked it back up in 2020, and in that time, the game had really changed. During that era, the 3catspam playstyle was meta all around, and the game devs had started to become incessantly greedy. But I played it anyways, learned the metas, got some weapons, and finally put the game to rest due to burnout, and the incredible lack of balancing the game had gained. Kind of unfortunate really, the game had so much potential. Thanks for reading, have a great day/night

I really enjoyed chatting with others in the lobby.

Me and my friend back in elementary school used to play this, We just loved how fun and simple it was. I specifically remembered me being so excited to unlock the "Fast Death" which at the time was a pretty great pistol that you could get and which you could upgrade. It went from a normal rapid fire standard pistol, to being able to be upgraded to a cool and better diamond one. By just leveling up and earning in game money from 2 or 3 games. It was simple to level up and just have fun. When I returned to the game during 2020 I was very disappointed. Not just because I had a new account but to see how much it had changed. All those fun weapons I got were either extremely nerfed or extremely buffed and hard to get. The fast death was an extremely lame, already diamond, slow firing "rapid fire" pistol. The Golden Desert Eagle you could get by simply earning in game money was also a very crappy starting pistol, and lots of the og weapons and maps were gone. This game falling apart was very sad.

Personally I think PG3D died incredibly fast once the 3 Cat Spam meta started getting popular. A lot of sweats came into the game and ruined it. The crafting parts for the weapons that were originally in the chest were now craftable, which ruined the whole point of collecting them. Getting them in the chest was super fun and had a good feeling.

Pixel Gun version 8.0.0, where both 'cells' controls (which what that is) and armor planted the seed to this game's downfall. Instead of reverting the controls they made ways to "counter" this 3catspam exploit but ended up having even more ridiculous mechanics like pulling towards target and shield attributes, along with weapons with nonsensical damage. It's gotten to a point where its going to take so much to fix the damages they made on this game and theyre doing nothing about it. The best thing they can do right now is change the controls back to 'swipe'. It's a big risk but the outcome would be majority of players returning while cheesers look for a new game to exploit.

I stopped playing Pixel Gun 3D completely around 2017 or 2018, which were the final good years on PG3D for me. Safe to say, looking at the PG3D now, I miss the PG3D of old. The simple days of playing the basic story, the weapon list and customization being so good, and generally just having fun within matches or even chilling out and chatting with people between matches. But the thing that hurt most about leaving Pixel Gun 3D at the time wasn't the game itself starting to turn sour (though it still stings a bit) or the extensive amount of time put into it on my geekily named "Ohm" player. It was the friends I had left behind years ago. I promised myself I would come back just for my buddies such as Kade and Rogue. Unfortunately, by then, it was probably already too late. And now with hardly anybody playing the game anymore, other than for some nostalgia, it seems like I may never be able to replicate those good times with old friends on newer and better games. Sad to see the game become a husk of its former self, but I guess that's just how all games like this one go out.

as a og player back in 2014-2017 was when the game was at its peak and you didn’t have to upgrade every single weapon now the game is just pay to win which is kinda sad considering it’s just a money grab new op weapons come out, u buy them and more new op weapons come out and the list goes on.

Man, I remember the good old days when the game was actually balanced. Powerful weapons like the ghost launcher and one-shot had pretty large drawbacks that forced players to use them carefully. Now, it seems like every new mythical weapon brings an innovative way to one-shot your opponents with ease. It’s just way too unbalanced. My breaking point for this game was this one time when I came up to an opponent from behind and unloaded a bunch of headshots on them with an epic automatic weapon, only for them to slowly turn around and one-shot me with a body shot from a mythical sniper rifle. I stopped playing the game then, and haven’t picked it up again to this day. It hurts to see that the game is just trying to chase trendy things like Among Us and Squid Game instead of innovating on its own core mechanics, and it saddens me that this once beloved game is dying out. Still, it’s getting what it deserves for being so greedy.

Its so nostalgic to remember playing in the trunk of my neighbors’ mom’s car with my old best friend. I realized the game had really experienced a fall from a golden age when i returned a few years later (~2014 all the way to ~2021) and saw the absolute clusterfuck that the homepage for the game had become. With the pets, base, battle royale, and all kinds of crazy weapons i cant think of it as anything else but overstimulating, especially compared to the once beautiful scenery of the maps and there only being around like 20 weapons to use without being instakilled by whatever sweat bought the latest best item in the game.

I miss when the story mode was the main focus and the multiplayer was a side thing to play after finishing the campaign. Such a shame. There were microtransactions back then, yes, but it wasn't nearly as obscene as it is now. I miss it so much.

I don't watch pixel gun content but the algorithm knows what we want.

I’ve played Pixel Gun 3D since November 2014, and if I’m gonna be honest, this is surprising. I sometimes still play the game but in 2018 currency like gems were so hard to get for free.

I remember logging in one day to my whole account hitting some weird reset. I lost guns, trophies, friends, coins, gems etc. I never gave my account to anyone so I was so confused and childhood me was so sad bc I grinded the game and actually made cool friends too. This happened twice and after the 2nd time I just couldn’t get back into the game

I used to play this all the time and even met friends on there when there was a chill place to hang out. I remembered always waiting for the story chapters to come out. It's such a shame on what happened.

This game was insane in its first few years, multiplayer was genuinely fun, and the story had a strange amount of depth that had me waiting months for the next chapter.

When I miss it, I play it, but no more grind; not worth it. We just gotta move on, sadly, even when it's something you loved/still love. In life, sometimes you need to make sacrifices... well, in this case, it's not so much of a sacrifice anymore, unfortunately

i tried the game out on xmas 2013 and i fell in love with it, it was the only mobile game i played, but then about 2015 when it became pay to win with the battle pass and fortnite mode it wasn't fun anymore, i deleted it and have'nt even thought about it since, at least till now, i do miss it tho, it was so iconic

Seeing this was heartbreaking. That was what my entire childhood consisted of for a certain period. It wasn’t just a shooter neither. It was also a social game to chill, away from all he shooting and you could even create your own skin.

I definitely can see how their greed backfired. I remember loving the game when I was younger and I remember coming back after a while and really saw how the game changed

I remember playing it right in the beginning when they had just introduced multipleyer but I went camping with my cousins and we could only play the story mode, it was so much fun but the game is just that, memories

This game brought out my competitiveness at a max, I remember there used to be a clan, I was the leader, and officers were elected based on skill, it was so fun.

I'm surprised it took them this long to die off even, the minecraft resource pack owners did talk about how Pixel Gun stole some of their texture here and there without permission, one of biggest victim was Dokucraft team, one of biggest resource pack community too.

I remember playing when it first came out. I beat the campaign several times and was constantly on multiplayer when it was released. But eventually one of the updates got rid of all my items and made it way harder to get all of the stuff I just used to have. That killed it for me personally
