Re: EA Seems To Have Cooled Off On The Idea Of NFTs

VisitingComet1

@NEStalgia Lets not give them the benefit of the doubt. This is still the same company that sales all kinds of card packs for games every year while removing features from franchise modes . They called loot boxes surprise boxes. Charged people renting games 10$ to play multiplayer. Abandoned Andromeda, Anthem and tried to monetize star wars to oblivion just to name a few things.
While I am happy they maybe are taking the correct path with this I don't trust them at all.

Re: Dying Light 2 Will Take About 500 Hours To 100%

I don't understand the complaining this sounds great its going to be even more rpg centered then the first game and you dont have to play for 500 hours. The first game I logged about 90 hours in with one and a half play throughs. The things that were tedious were self inflicted I am sure it is going to be fun and that should be all that matters.
For the people saying 20 hours is a good length that is way too short the only game recently that I thought was to long was dragon inquisition but you did the same thing on every map. I don't know just my two cents.

Re: Grim Dawn: Definitive Edition Dev Warns Of 'Misleading' Reports As The Game Launches On Xbox

The text size is an issue I will admit that. For the people complaining about everything else it's an Xbox one game not a series x game. The price is fine for the amount of content in it. yes it's been on the PC for awhile on the PC you had to purchase all the dlc the game comes with all that on Xbox I think the price is more than fair. If you give the game q chance you will see that it's a gem.

Re: Is Age Of Empires 4 Coming To Xbox?

VisitingComet1

I'm through three missions plus the tutorial which was pretty good. My opinion so far is that it's a lot of fun and I'm terrible at these types of games. Let's put it this way in the capturing of York mission my king spent most of his time dead in enemy territory and I lost completely to another 3 rd group. So ya I need to get better but it's lots of fun

Re: Halo Infinite Won't Include Co-Op Or Forge At Launch This Fall

@mousieone no I agree with you don't delay it for those modes multiplayer will be where I spend most of my time that is what makes Halo great playing with friends getting sniped from impossible distances and having fun.
I really just think that since 343 took over it has been going downhill and I am tired of the excuses they have had a whole year and are still behind.
I was not blind buying the series x I knew games like fable were a long way out but Halo was supposed to be done by now it is just frustrating to see it loose so much luster in the hands of these clowns.

@oconnoclast man I am with you I remember standing outside a gamestop at midnight with hundreds of people for Halo 2 I love the games. I like Phil Spencer he has rewarded my loyalty to Xbox through the the Xbox One days but I feel like he doesn't have his thumb on these guys there is no excuse for them not being able to deliver at this point. I am not a supporter of crunch and I want everyone to have a good equitable working experience but how much time do you need for a core feature and if they know now its not going to make it then they new months ago they didn't just wake up today and say well damn were out of time. The thing that really irritates me is the lack of urgency on their part well we will just deliver next year some time possibly maybe perhaps. this is an industry wide thing we can just patch it day one kind of attitude. 343 has done a terrible job with the IP and I think they need a major shake up at the top.

Re: Roundup: Here's What The Critics Are Saying About Madden NFL 22

VisitingComet1

I understand the comments above but I know 20 people who are not buying it yet. We have had the same franchise league for several years and we made a pact no new madden until franchise is fixed. Honestly though we know they only care about mut.
The funny thing is if they said tomorrow were going to add in front loaded/back loaded contracts and all the good things we stripped out but we need to charge you 15 extra dollars tons of people would but it. Their greed has blinded them and is costing them money. Remember when they charged 10 dollars to play online if you rented the game all EA cares about is how much more money they can squeeze out of someone

Re: NHL 22 Takes To The Ice This October With A New Game Engine

VisitingComet1

@FraserG are you guys going to do a madden review I would love to know about the franchise improvements I am not buying it until at least September update if at all.
Back on topic its cool that they have a new engine but frostbite has really hampered several of their games by being forced down the different projects throats Dragon age inquisition and madden for example. I have seen articles on how it has hurt development for both those games. Just search for frostbite engine forced on devs. I would link some but I do not know the rules about linking outside articles here.
Here is a great story about how frostbite is terrible https://kotaku.com/how-biowares-anthem-went-wrong-1833731964
