@DogPark if you can make improvements all around why not? it was a older gen game on the 360/ps3, so theres plenty of upgrades they can make with game play , quality of life , ect ect
@Drago201 well there is the rumor that they are making a ps5 update , so the voice actor saying that played into it , i still think its happening at some point though, but unlike that the black flag remake is all but confirmed as its been a rumor for a while and ubisoft confirmed they were remaking older ac games.
@nomither6 how is it a waste? they literally have 4 projects going on lol, more support for shadows , the black flag remake , ac hexe which is a new game , and the rumored ac1 remake. its not like the only thing they have going on
i'm excited for this as it was held back a lot being a ps3/360 game that was also on the xb1/ps4. there is a lot of stuff in the current games they can improve on with black flag.
@get2sammyb my phone is hating this weather so 😂, I think it’s playing a significant role so when the system would heat up when the map comes up the warmer weather would push it past the point it’s an issue.
@SeaDaVie pretty much , steam has allowed people to do this for a while , you can add games outside of steam to your games so you can launch it with steam. its pretty much the same thing.
this lawsuit won't go any where , but on a side note , i've been a big fan of the attachable hard disc drive. whenever i had an issue with a video game console , its always the disc drive, its much easier being able to replace that part yourself then having to send in the entire console and more then likely get a replacement console instead of getting it fixed.
@Darude84 i never said there was anything wrong with that , the part i was pointing to is people saying , well why isn't this game on there yet? that was my point if you want to play it that badly then you buy it , trust me i have tons of free games from epic games , gog games , amazon prime , ect i haven't really played much of but of course i claimed them lol
reading some of these comments are kind of silly , at the end of the day if you actually want to play a game , then buy it. buying it means you actually own that game, other wise you are just paying a monthly fee to rent it instead of going to block buster you just rent it.
the irony is people keep saying " i don't even have time to play these games any more" , but complain there isn't enough games to play at the same time. if there are more games and you don't have time to play them whats the point?
@sanderson72 i hate to tell you this but the ps3 easily beats the ps5 pro in that department , considering it was 2006 and you only got 60 gb of storage , there were also very little games to play for a while
honestly if i like a game enough the little collectable and stuff i don't mind at all , adds an extra to the game besides the side stuff and the main story. the first game was great to me because of that. i know thats not every ones cup of tea and that's fine, but it never bothered me to find the shrines or the foxes , ect ect ect.
@OldGamer999 1) it was a project that bungie was working on before sony bought them 2) i wouldn't say them delaying it to make improvements with feedback a mess though.
The fact they are taking peoples feed back and actually trying to improve on these things that people want, and all of the sudden makes it a failure ? You guys are crazy lol. If they didn’t care they would have ignored all the feedback and released it as is ala concord.
@Flaming_Kaiser oh i won't disagree with you on that , but also there were some great games on ps2 , but there were like completely random games hundreds of them that people never touched or played because they were just shovel ware random games. but those types of games still are out there. sony showed off plenty of them at their summer state of play , sword of the sea looks great and its a ps+ game. i wish people would support those games more like they did back in the ps2/ps3 days.
@somnambulance i think you completely missed my point or didn't bother to read what i wrote, thats fine. They brought in outside studios and created a whole new studio for those remasters though. lay offs are actually pretty common in the tech industry as a lot of them are only brought in to work on a single game , when that game doesn't get made those people are no longer needed. they can't make games that don't sell any more. you can keep this mind set all you want , i'm not stopping you , but like i said you can't compare an era of gaming that was clearly impacted by shutdowns delaying games for years vs other era's that didn't have these issues.
@somnambulance i didn't really mean to single you out , but it was one of the first ones i saw, but people keep bringing up the first party thing, but you can't really compare game development now vs older consoles. why? games cost more then ever , development time is longer , meaning they are less likely to take risks. not to mention having a pandemic didn't help things.
@Dodoo if you look for it , you'll find plenty of those , sword of the sea is one of those and its going to be a ps+ game, there are plenty of hidden gems out there. I feel like when some of these games finally get shown off a few of them are going to make people think okay well this was worth it, i have faith in Corey at least in making something worth waiting for.
@Dodoo the problem with that is games cost 100x's more to develop then in the ps3 era. also people keep bringing up the ps3 era , but the reality is that was their worst console era ( i love the ps3 btw) sales wise. They've also invested in single player games as well though , such as stellar blade , phantom blade zero , and lost soul aside.
@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare gaming has changed over the years though. having strikes , a pandemic , has caused delays with a lot of games that would have come out much sooner. not to mention the increasing costs of game development , its harder to take risks on games with big budgets. back then they could make games like resistance , killzone and infamous , and make a decent return even though they didn't sell well. but that would be much harder now. at the same time it does seem like they are investing more into international games , phantom blade zero and lost soul aside both look amazing imo. as for the layoffs , most if not all of these jobs which i explained in another post were people hired for the game that was cancelled, they are most likely on a 1 game contract , and with that game not being made they lay them off.
@x3King84 they were hired for the games that was canceled , a lot of them were only hired for that 1 game. since its not being made they are laid off. which they would have been laid off after the game was finished either way , they weren't long term employees.
@Nyne11Tyme you do know live service doesn't mean battle royale right? they just announce a marvel fighting game which is live service ( which most fighting games are live service now), and gt7 is a live service racing game.
honestly i have so many games i've gotten for free on gog , epic , ect , that im pretty interested in this. give me a playstation branded handheld that lets me play ps4/ps5 games from and i'd be happy.
Giving it another day I’d say it was pretty good , suda51 new game looks great, not to mention a first party fight stick and a first party marvel fighter , silent hill f looks much better then I was expecting as well. Looking forward to death standing 2 and then a dive into the new ghosts game play in July.
@Americansamurai1 there where live service games before the term was even made , anything with a season pass is live service , elder scrolls , fall out , call of duty ect ect
@ED_209 yeah it sucks about bend and bluepoint , but a good solution would be to either have them make a game together to speed up the development of a new game or to have them work with other studios to help speed up the development of other games.
