@Hutchilawd I'd highly disagree, feel like I mention it quite often but I think it's great.
Actually looks distinctly different compared to other racers because of the effects and it just plays well. MP is lacking in content and SP might get boring fast but it's definitely worth a try
@Kaloudz nah it's only the gear shop man, buy some shirts or whatever. I haven't checked the store yet but it was mostly branded merch before.
Last time I entered in 2021 I got my rewards three days after in my mailbox.
Apparently I ended in the top 2500 back then 😅
@Kaloudz huh, that's pretty surprising. Here I was thinking at least the top 10 folks must've used AI but maybe they used a different one. Or they actually just knew that much. And yh speed must've mattered a lot, got one answer right within the last few seconds somewhere half way through and ended up staying in the exact same rank lol Any plans for your shiny newfound tenner and the gear shop code 👀
@Kaloudz #397, how about you? You get to google anything within the 12 secs? Pretty neat btw, for some reason I thought top 500 got a $10 gift card instead of $50.
@Kaloudz noo worries I got nowhere near top 500 the last time I tried this.
Starting gaming in 2016 and knowing ***** all about gaming history apparently translates to being bad at gaming trivia, who could've guessed 😭
I survived exactly one round when I did this before.
Best of luck though 🫡
@Tonmoy nahh why'd you feel the need to attack my man mozzy 😭 Word to mozzy because he's right, these 'up to x resolution and fps' are as useful as the pc requirements a dev releases for the 'targets' their game will hit but in most cases just calling them 'minimum' and 'recommended'. Very non-telling in both cases
@Fiendish-Beaver wait so why pre-order then? Aren't you expecting aveum to get a pretty steep pricedrop shortly after launch anyway? Seems pretty doomed if you ask me. Happy gaming
I've never bought cod, played a few, but a zombies mode in mw feels wrong. Not unlike zombies in the original wz. But still, it's nice to have. Hope it doesn't take away from other game modes, cough campaign cough
@somnambulance Ayyy I don't even know if the previous games had it but now I can justifiably be angry. @Ep_13 I mean, people bought Halo because they promised the same thing but never delivered on it. Besides Xbox Game Studios has proven to still be quite a mess so trusting on blind faith seems a bit dumb.
Getting a call from mr moneybags himself must be pretty neat. But stil kinda weird for these deals to happen like this, I'm sure the fine print is all done in handwriting after but how do you know it's not just an impersonator on the other end to begin with lol?
packed full of microtransactions that generally don't carry over into the following year's game.
I thought they did nowadays, since wz? Been playing cold war for a few days and I've surprisingly found out that I have some reticles and skins and whatnot. It all says it's from some season pass or sth as well, figured it's from an older game.
It is beautiful, soundtrack is terrific as well. But damn is this game hard to play, aim's all over the place when you press L2 and the controls feel so rugged. Checkpoints aren't the best either and I'm not even gonna start on the last boss fight lol
It's good for what it is but I definitely would have liked to see some more QOL features.
Wouldn't recommend this to folks who want something more in the way of good production qualities.
Tons of indies out there that play way better, though I guess this game beats them in other aspects.
@awp69 was wondering the same lol, if I hadn't seen the similar article on pushsquare I would've thought they accidentally published it on the wrong site despite being different teams.
Most def yeah. I feel like with development cycles being longer it's supposed to feel longer until this gen has well and truly started, and the expectation amongst gamers for it to have started by now (as it probably has been the generations prior) might be a bit unrealistic, especially regarding covid. But on the other side totally fair for a consumer to want his box to be worth their money.
@shoeses I want to say there are sites that make the whole ordeal easier by notifying you when a game reaches its lowest ever pricepoint but I've completely forgotten their names lol
EDIT: Xbdeals.net does the trick, and psprices for playstation.
@Nighto4 ps just has the one mission exclusive to the platform titled 'isolation', much like hogwarts I suppose.
I had completely forgotten about that though.
@Kaloudz according to my (not proven) calculations it should be about a month and a half yh. Ngl though I was expecting it to be sooner. I hope I last longer than the 30 or so minutes I did before with the original 360 version 😂
@Kraven no-one asked for a damn review on the game but am I glad you did lol. One of the best promotions I've seen for it. If I wasn't such a cheapskate I'd probably buy it right away. Btw did you comment about ffxvi on pushsquare as well? I can remember someone saying they were intending to finish it before heading to some random place in the US, if so that's great development right there lol
