PP: Disintegration has all the ingredients for a great sci-fi game, and it combines the RTS and FPS genres in a creative way. It stumbles with combat that is merely OK and a hub area between missions that feels empty. Despite good voice acting, the story and characters are shallow, and the story concludes very abruptly without a feeling of resolution.
There are times when the combat is great, and you can see exactly what the game is trying to be. Unfortunately, those great moments aren’t enough to offset my other issues with the game.
Disintegration has been updated to version 1.06 on PS4 and the patch notes confirm that this update has removed the multiplayer from the game.
What's good about this though is that the developer changed the trophies from the MP mode to the Single player trophies. That way you can still earn all of them. This is the only time I've seen that done and more games should do this when they shut down the online part.
V1 Interactive says: "We have made the difficult decision to remove Disintegration’s multiplayer modes from the game across all platforms. This will be done in phases over the coming months, starting today with the removal of the in-game store, and will conclude on November 17th with the full removal of multiplayer. The single player campaign will remain fully playable moving forward."
It's sad, but not totally unexpected. We tried to boost the multiplayer achievement with 7 people once and couldn't even find the other three needed to start the 5v5 games :(
I honestly forgot this game was even a thing. The reveal trailer wasn't that good. This has got to be the quickest this has happened, right?
"Disintegration looks to walk a path that has only ever seen a handful of travelers. That path is the one of the hybrid RTS/FPS genre, which does not immediately recall a slew of titles."
I disagree completely the game was amazing it just lacked in content but that's a given considering the budget what they were able to do is still amazing, I hope if they ever do a sequel it has more money put towards it.
