Im a hard core destiny player and to be fair I thought get rid of the stuff that no one was really playing, they have made changes to the engine to stop the sunsetting issues, that being said were you really playing areas that have been removed ?
This is totally normal behaviour for an MMO to sunset areas
Wow this thread had created much entertainment for me seeing one PCMR follower get absolutely roasted. Im lucky to own poth a perfectly capable (but no where near as powerful as a ps5) PC (R5 3600, 32bg ram, pcie gen4 ssd, and a rx5700xt attached to a 1440p 120hz monitor) and I also own a ps5 this is the first time I have no allegience in my 30 years of gaming, my pc is perfect for what I primarily play on it (destiny) and my ps5 is perfect for the first person titles and some plus games and anyone who knows me knows im a huge sonic fan so I play sonic games on console too.
I think having first party games ported to PC is a great thing its bringing a wider audience into some absolute gems of games.
Imagine what TLOU or TLOU2 will look like on PC (I for one think they are 2 of the most ground breaking games of their generations (TLOU being on ps3 as a sorta last game of the ps3 generation and TLOU2 being a last game sorta of the ps4 generation)
People need to stop with the PCMR situation the huge gap that was there between home consoles and pc's is now all but closed over with most consoles being glorified pc's (bear in mind XBSX and PS5 are x86-64 based consoles and no longer using proprietary CPU & GPU).
I wonder what this will mean for ps+ also ...... thats a hell of a purchase D2 is consistently one of the most played games per week on steam that means the player base is still there, happy chappy
While I am not bothered by the game the buzz this game has caused is absolutely genius the marketing guys at Blue box are absolutely killing this now because its got everyone talking even if it is negative talk, very clever
I have a PS5 and wince at the £70 price tag for new games, I picked up AC Valhalla and got that brand new for £25 which I thought was an absolute steal (even if the game is soooooo slow) I do own R&C but not returnal (mainly because its like rocking horse sh*t to get)
What was the reasoning for the price hike again was it because the games were now on ultra HD blu ray discs ?
@Mostik The Ninja lol I played that on retroarch recently and I forgot just how evil that game is the music is brilliant for a late 80's game, but I will say I remember my master system getting that in the late 80's only being I think 5 at the time it was amazing, Alex Kidd deserves a remake yes and is it hard oh yes but games back then were brutally hard they were originally designed for arcade cabinets so were meant to swallow your cash.
I remember getting the last ps4 before xmas 2013 in cornwall and doing the exact same with the ps4 pro I actually can not wait to see the pure carnage that ps5 creates as I expect xbox to up their game but Sony spent the past 3-4 years really cementing their position as the console market leader and look at the ps4's major first party swansong.... TLOU2, Ghost of Tushima 2 absolutely stunning games I can only imagine what they will look like at full 4k 60fps on ps5 when the remasters hit
I wouldnt be shocked if ND implemented this in R&C on ps5 to get plat and people will freak out but get that a lot of ND's games are less about the gameplay and more about the story and immersive feelings they give off.
ND and Insomniac are my 2 favourite studios with Valve and Bungie 3rd and 4th respectively.
All because of their abillity to generate great storys and immersive environments.
Ok I'll chuck my 20p in here, the options are going to be a game changer 100%, its a real shame its taken so long but I highly doubt ps3 or before could support this level of settings that has been given. Roll on friday when I get my copy
I never saw the whole of the show but I will say R&C looks amazing true next gen, GT7 looks amazing (not a shock there) and Horizon all look truely stunning.
This gen I will only be playing first part exclusives on ps5 things like destiny and PES will be on pc just because its a better platform in my opinion for online games.
@wiiware sorry the point that was made by bungie was its 4k @ 60fps and I highly doubt (infact know) your pc can get to those lofty heights! I am on a i7 4790s 32gb ram and on my old card (1060 3gb) couldnt get close to 60fps @ 4k now I have a 5700xt and can get 60fps @ 1440p and 45-50fps @ 4k.
The engine was written for ps4 base model as well as xbone base model. They wont be putting out a d3, the announcements yesterday were pretty plain and clear cut they are finishing this story arc on d2 platform, the idea of putting areas and content into a vault and rotating each season is the only way they can get around the 105gb roof the engine and patch system can support on consoles which I commend them for coming up with an idea thats not a complete deletion of content.
What Bioware really need is a kick up the bum EA are not at fault here its the actual studio how on earth they can release a buggy mess in MEA or DAO god only knows.
Sonic 1-S+K were amazing games and Sonic Mania plus was just unreal I am under no doubt that come 2021 we will see something utterly jaw dropping utilizing the ps5's stoopid levels of power here is to hoping its a ps5 exclusive
its bloody hard but the sounds are great and i think this will be a lot of fun in 4 player mode or online
With regards to Stevens comments regarding handling oh boy the power sliding is hard I have played with the controls and still no joy its as precise as possible but that means when you get it right you get it right and feel a sense of accomplishment.
All in all for game to give this to me for free im well happy
It wont be march Sony are too Savy to not see what happened last year with RDR and not jump on that bandwagon bear in mind this is by a long way the most anticipated game of this generation and possibly all time. I think October this year which will make its a very busy few months for me
God I remember world championship pool on pc that was fun, however this looks brilliant and great price for it so im almost certainly getting it but I agree with BAM it could do with having all cue sports on one disc (id be in heaven as i spend a good portion of my life playing pool at a fairly good standard)
I wasnt impressed with Skyrim in vr but then again im not fussed with doom probably to do with the weird controls using psmove other than that oh wow VR is amazing beat sabre and astrobot, need to try moss too
Its heartbreaking as a hardcore bioware fan that this happened but I had a bad feeling about this almost 6 months agao that things like this would happen.
Yeah this just feels like a PVE ripoff of Destiny, I am honestly gutted about this but in a way I am glad I kept my money in my back pocket so I never got burned (based on DAO)
