XDefiant<\/em> is in the middle of its first closed beta test<\/a>, but there’s trouble in paradise for the potential Call of Duty<\/em> competitor. Ubisoft San Francisco developers recently hinted at a possible extension for the closed beta due to many ongoing problems.<\/p>\n Problems during the XDefiant<\/em> closed beta test<\/a> first popped up a few days after it went live on April 13. Notably, players weren\u2019t able to advance past a certain point in the progression system<\/a> and unlock any items. Additionally, loadouts that should<\/em> allow players to save their favorite equipment didn’t function properly. Ubisoft San Francisco has since pushed updates to address the problems, but patches took days to hit all platforms<\/a>.<\/p>\n These issues are on top of unsteady servers that continue to hinder players’ enjoyment of the game. These range from difficulty finding games online to even connecting to the servers in the first place. Even after a full server configuration replacement, players still struggle <\/a>to play matches in this online-only game.<\/p>\n Thankfully, it didn\u2019t take long for the game\u2019s executive producer, Mark Rubin, to address the situation on Twitter<\/a>. Rubin not only noted when the issues would hopefully be fixed, but also teased<\/a> the possibility of a closed beta extension.<\/p>\n Oh, and if all goes well and the servers finally gain some stability then I think we should look at extending the Beta but I have to see what that would mean for team.<\/p>\n — Mark Rubin (@PixelsofMark) April 15, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n![\"How](\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/5A776FD3-3207-43A4-B7D4-3DCC80AD0085.jpeg?resize=640%2C360\")
