  • Titanfall 2

    Yeah, I had 2 Origin accounts and sold them both because I wanted everything on Steam. I play Battlefront on the PS4 (due to the upcoming VR stuff) but I caved again for Battlefield 1. Origin is still utter crap. Things like taking screenshots is impossible, a feature you already had 20 years ago. Plus, every time I finish playing, it resizes all my windows. I can't change in-game settings without the game going blurry (I need to do it through Geforce Experience or .ini editing). Also, I have to manually force Origin to close to be able to shutdown my computer, but other than those things, it's great.

    Battlefield 1 is totally worth it though.

    That first trailer got me excited but this new one is just terrible.

    That's why i don't like DLC, it splits community.

    Awesome art, but refund... sorry.

    A server browser, the option to host your own dedicated server and bots would go a long way.

    Oh no, we're doing it, but not the rest.

    Maps are fucking great the btw, it's just the matchmaking, lack of options, rampant cheaters, etc that completely ruin.

    Seriously, Orbital is one of the best MP maps I've seen and played in a long time. Argent Reach is beautiful as well. Should fit right in with Quake Champions ;)

    Did you work on any of the maps @BJA?

  • Bethesda's new review policy

    You can read all about it here and here. In short though:

    Quote

    Quote At Bethesda, we value media reviews.

    We read them. We watch them. We try to learn from them when they offer critique. And we understand their value to our players.

    Earlier this year we released DOOM. We sent review copies to arrive the day before launch, which led to speculation about the quality of the game. Since then DOOM has emerged as a critical and commercial hit, and is now one of the highest-rated shooters of the past few years.

    With the upcoming launches of Skyrim Special Edition and Dishonored 2, we will continue our policy of sending media review copies one day before release. While we will continue to work with media, streamers, and YouTubers to support their coverage – both before and after release – we want everyone, including those in the media, to experience our games at the same time.

    We also understand that some of you want to read reviews before you make your decision, and if that’s the case we encourage you to wait for your favorite reviewers to share their thoughts.

    Now there is so much contradiction in that statement that I don´t even know where to start. But it´s a sad day when streamers (who are bought) get to play way in advance and critiques, won't get that opportunity. I'm not even mad at Bethesda. It's the consumers who made this possible. Pre-ordering games, buying Season Passes without knowing what's in them and still continuing this practice even though they get burned time and time again with false promises, crappy ports, server issues or a shitload of bugs.

    Don't dismiss this without thinking. This is big and could potentially (if others follow) be even bigger.

    I obviously don't have access to Blizzards data, but I have serious doubts about D3 having even a million players at the start of a season. I've played in all 7, and my impression is that the player base have been diminishing greatly with each season. You'll be hard pressed to find any public games, and everyone I've spoken to who still play says that they just play for a few days to get the extra stash, then call it quits until next time.

    Hmm, I didn't know that. I haven't played in ages but I still have friends who regularly play it. I had no idea numbers had declined that much.

    They already confirmed nothing is backwards compatible. NOTHING!

  • Blizzcon 2016

    I don't see why they should have any incentive for creating a new Diablo. It's still being played by millions and the seasons are a huge success.

    I want to know what all those rumors about their legacy titles are about. Warcraft, Diablo and Starcraft in HD?
