Did the rumour of Jill being involved get completely shot down? There was talk about her being involved in investigating some hospital elsewhere In the world during early QA play test reports. I’m presuming that it could be future dlc for Requiem?
The only thing I really remember from 2 that I liked was that they had the head guy from Warp Records doing a radio station which featured Plaid “clock” and Metro Area “Muira”. The story and script was awful, so typical of Ubisoft.
1 will always be remembered for that deceptive E3 trailer they showed. That incident for me was the start of the rot that has brought Ubisoft down.
Chris Redfield would be a goldmine for LA plastic surgeons such is the different face models he has had. Looking forward to seeing how he will look in CV and then Rebecca’s .
@Northern_munkey there needs to be a system in place for retribution. Rats scurrying around with their Stitcher In hand. I keep going to the players met page questioning if the one who just shot me in the back is going to see the full lengths my pettiness will stoop to when I friend them two months from now and then proceed to shoot them in the back during a squads game.
the core community, absolutely incredible feel good vibes when someone goes out of their way to help you. when others work together in this game it’s some of the happiest experiences I have ever had and I’ve been playing video games for thirty years now. Only recently I was fighting a Matriach and I befriended a Scandinavian raider and we were jokingly bemoaning there was no loot to pick from it’s burning carcass after everyone had worked to take it down. Next thing, a random raider appeared and dropped us both a matriarch core and wished us a merry Christmas . The mad thing is, if it was any other game we would all probably be fighting to be the last one alive to take all the loot and any form of insult accepted as part and parcel of PvP. This game deserves more and i hope it gets more in terms of plenty of maps which is something that i feel hindered The Finals. It will win plenty of awards in 26!
Jesus wept, some of you just want this game to fail. You’re as depressing as a Daily Mail reader in a comments section about anything positive. No one cares about your view if you’re stating you have no intention to buy it!
700 hours playing Age Of Empire 2, only got 10 platinums this year, down from 19…. 26 previous to that. Could it be? could one be finally slowing down from the sickness that is hunting trophies and 100% completions 🤔
Must say I’ve gotten bored of playing the game now having sunk 200 hours into it. I just keep coming back for one more game but in truth I need to buy something else and wait for some fresh content to be added.
@species it works once you’re settled into it but when it comes to PVP matches or just doing challenges on harder difficulties where speedy actions are needed you’re pretty much disadvantaged. Saying that, I have had great fun with a controller on AoE2
@D6rkLordS6t6n I’m assuming you’ve not seen the Eurogamer review yet? The reviewer just starts going off about the use of A.i and seems to forget to inform readers if it’s a good game to buy or not. Go check it out, my “facepalm” emoticon is my feeling towards it and yes I agree with you
@Steeleye25 it just seems pointless to me to shoot other Raiders. I mean, you’ll eventually be getting the loot that they have on them so it’s not like it’s necessary. Some will trick you into thinking they’re friendly to catch you off guard , they’re the worst but seem to be rare occurrences
My big disappointment for the year. Just could not click with this game compared to the first one and stopped half way through. The music was outstanding though
8 for now but waiting to see if future additions and improvements make the game better seeing how it’s a GaaS product. Love that it’s smaller and more condensed areas of exploration
Considering that they put the most expensive version front and centre of the games store page and that you have to find and click on the “ … “ option (not obvious to a lot of customers) to find out the price of the base version I think we should all be treating this with a lot of cynicism.
It’s the maps that are the only thing that’s stopping me from getting. The ones in the beta were flat and uninteresting. Trying to get a friend to jump into the beta and the first map he tried he got hammered. we both sunk over 1000 hours into the flawed 2042 but it at least it had some really fun maps. It concerns me that none of the maps In the BF6 beta had anything memorable happening within them that made me want to tell friends “this is a battlefield map!”.
The updates to the classes are a lot better now than back around season 4. The middle class have a gun (P90) with a fire rate that matches what the small class has. Close combat fights between small and middle were very much one sided affairs if your guns firing output was slow. The heavy class have a portable healing station which can be picked up and reused elsewhere (as with other devices). The game looks so much better with the new palette of colours. You really see things stand out more on the casino map. The walls are a darker colour which makes everything else look sharper. Positive steps forward I feel. Just a shame that it’s still a massive grind for a certain trophy
This was the same argument that they all were preaching together when Google brought out that now defunct streaming device 10 years ago claiming we are moving to a device-less stream future. If a company like Google can’t make it work then it’s not going to happen Michael.
Started playing The Finals again and I have to say it looks even more fantastic than before which for me was around the end of series 5. Has the game had a graphical update? The colours are brighter, the ray tracing sharp and it just looks great even on my low tier 4k tv (one day C4, one day!)
Big disappointment, look I like hard games and I know that if I can’t do a certain section I need to either take a break and come back with a clear head or I need to explore other areas and look for upgrades to my toolset. This game is not fun because of how you are constantly taken back to the last resting spot after a death that it becomes repetitive and boring having to retrace your steps to get back to your death spot only to die again. I have not got the patience or perseverance with this as I just can’t stand having to take the same route back to the spot I messed up over and over again.
