Wow, that's awesome. Ty Cliffy for supporting PS4 and Pro. A lot of games announcing solid Pro support recently. Crossout, Kingdom Come, Lawbreakers. Now, back to Farpoint and the enhancements that my PS4 Pro gives it.

slappy5083290d ago

ve got a pro as well and daaam I'm really tempted to get psvr and Farpoint. Is it a worthwhile experience

IamTylerDurden13290d ago

Farpoint + the AIM controller is an incredible experience that is absolutely worth it, and it's even better with PS4 Pro. If you can find a PSVR and a Farpoint + AIM controller bundle you should get it, it's honestly an experience you can not have anywhere else. Holding the AIM up to the PSVR headset where your eye is in order to look down sights/scope, physically pulling the shotgun off your back to switch weapons, full free movement in a AAA VR FPS with an intriguing sci fi story, towering bosses. I love it.

If you do get PSVR it'll be a better experience bc you already have Pro. Games like Rigs, Rez, Bound, Robinson, and Farpoint are all much better with Pro. If you get PSVR and Farpoint i'd also suggest you grab Rush of Blood, Arkham VR, and Resident Evil 7 as they are imo required play for PSVR.

slappy5083290d ago

Awesome yes I did see a bundle for psvr aim and Farpoint. Rigs was another game I wanted to get

IamTylerDurden13290d ago

Rigs is awesome and totally upgraded by Pro. You will love Rigs, it just works so well and is so fun, it's an impressive game. It has a fun sp campaign and great mp, it's the type of game that would still be good if it wasn't in VR. There was a huge December update that added loads of free content as well.

Lol now playstation nation loves Cliffy 🤣

Glad this isn't f2p anymore. Need more hard-core fps out there

Araragifeels 3290d ago

Cliffy loves PlayStation since he know that the table have change and PlayStation 4 sold 60 million while Xbone like 27 million.

gangsta_red3290d ago

"Lol now playstation nation loves Cliffy 🤣"

Does sound extremely funny when reading that.

UCForce3290d ago

@gangsta_red He would go with Xbox if It had 60 million units sale.

gangsta_red3290d ago

@UCForce

"He would go with Xbox if It had 60 million units sale."

I'm positive that's the reason also.

thekhurg3290d ago (Edited 3290d ago )

My opinion of him has never changed. No interest in this game at all but I'm glad it's getting wider release. Never want to see a studio release a game without trying to get to a larger audience.

DigitalRaptor3290d ago (Edited 3290d ago )

So, did IamTylerDurden1 hate or dislike Cliffy before now?

& the dude has worked on a number of great games that have seen light on PlayStation in the past. Bit of an odd comment to make off just one person's comment. Either way, Cliffy wants the best success for his game so will go where the most players are.

IamTylerDurden13290d ago

It's definitely more so that Cliffy.. and Epic (Paragon) love PlayStation now bc it has double the install base and well over 50% market share.

I don't think opinions have changed on him personally, but ppl are just happy to have another high profile game (console exclusive?) on PS4 with PS4 Pro support. Was it strange when xbox fans were hyping Sunset Overdrive? Should xbox fans have hated Ted Price and vowed not to buy the game bc of Sony's relationship with Insomniac? You are really reaching with that Cliffy comment, Septic.

Rude-ro3290d ago

:(
Don't you have a Scorpio or destiny article to go fight in?

3290d ago
IamTylerDurden13290d ago (Edited 3290d ago )

I think there are plenty of FPS out there, Septic. Were you around this past holiday when Titanfall, Battlefield, and CoD all released within one week of each other?

Titanfall, Battlefield, Battlefront, CoD, Destiny, DOOM, Wolfenstein, Metro, Halo, Killzone, Overwatch, Borderlands, Shadow Warrior, Far Cry, killing Floor, Bioshock, Payday, Prey, R6S, Homefront, Planetside, Blacklight, Strafe, Gunscape, Farpoint, AZ Sunshine, Primal Carnage, Spacehulk Deathwing, Dead Effect, RE7, Verdun, Umbrella Corp, Battleborn, Bulletstorm, Paladins.

Above is a list of active FPS games/franchises off the top of my head. The genre is oversaturated, that's why Farpoint is so nice bc it brings some freshness.

MagicBeanz3290d ago

NO, he's still a steaming bag of garbage.

Liqu1d3290d ago

Because one person speaks on behalf of everyone right? You guys continue to embarrass yourself.

Gazondaily3290d ago

Only one guy made the comment and agreed with him right?

You're the one that should be embarrassed.

Awesome Playstation got another one

XXanderXX3290d ago (Edited 3290d ago )

A PC game cool , so no longer PC exclusive . Cool

MrFisher213290d ago

The hurt in that butt is deep and strong with this one.

XXanderXX3290d ago

@MrFisher21 not hurt if anything PC gamers should be hurt he called them pirates when at EPIC and Console gamers should be hurt also cause when Boss keys was announced along with game he said no to consoles .
As for me am good and wish him and Boss key luck.

tyasia03290d ago (Edited 3290d ago )

Oh he mad!

PC players don't care about having exclusives. Take as many as you want. More money for dev= more games.

Araragifeels 3290d ago

The saltines Flow through you

Imalwaysright3290d ago

Allsystemgamer

PC is my preferred platform and I wouldn't care if every PC exclusive was also released on consoles. I rather see every gamer playing their games on their preferred platform than seeing a company profiting from having an exclusive.

XXanderXX3290d ago (Edited 3290d ago )

@ to all no saltyness but since u all seem to think u know more . Now my anticipation of watching this studios fail has grown ten folds .
Good times ahead bring on the failure , whoo getting ready to watch it crash and burn .
Hello yeah bring it on cause now am going to be one salty mofo .
Fail fail .

rainslacker3290d ago

Thought you Xbox fans were all excited for all the easily ported PC games that the X1 would be getting with DX and UWP.

So, it is cool. More games is not actually a bad thing. Does it matter where it originated?

DigitalRaptor3290d ago

Hrrrpff. Sony is so anti-consumer. Paying CliffyB to prevent other platforms from getting this game.

Hey, I know this is just desperate unfounded logic, but I'm gonna say that that this smells of Sony paying CliffyB hundreds of thousands of dollars for exclusivity... why does my console get less games because of anti-consumer Sony? Wahhhh.

tyasia03290d ago

Your console gets less games because it has less half the number of unit sales.

Araragifeels 3290d ago

You just salty troll and coming up with fake news to confused the readers. PlayStation have a huge fan base so obviously Cliffy will choose PlayStation over Xbox. PS4 = 60 million and Xbone = around 27 million sold.

StarElite3290d ago

@tyasia0 @Araragifeels

Lol he is trolling you guys, just look at his comment history. He isn't even an Xbox fan.

Fist4achin3290d ago

It happens with all the consoles. It's called exclusivity...either buy the other console or live with it.

DigitalRaptor3290d ago

My post is what is called satire.

Sorry if anybody was confused by it. 😄

Godmars2903290d ago

but it was pro-consumer for MS to charge for XBL and use the money to buy exclusives? Limited exclusive access anyway.

That they eventually raised prices and lowered quality, stopped buying exclusivity, is a whole other thing of course.

Rude-ro3290d ago

That is kind of funny because Microsoft paid millions to keep gears of war off of Sony...
You kids are cute.

gangsta_red3289d ago

Too funny seeing the hardcore go after one of their own.

Kribwalker3290d ago

Except when he says "PS4 pc for now, then you never know" which basically says "Sony paid for timed exclusive, then it will be out elsewhere"

Kribwalker3290d ago

Lol desperate fanboy. If I wanted to play this knock off game I will buy it on my PS4. But it clearly is coming to other consoles, as they have left it wide open to that...

rainslacker3290d ago (Edited 3290d ago )

Cliffy is currently an indie dev. He has funding because he has the connections, but from a business point of view, it makes much more sense to release a game on platforms with the largest potential customer base.

There is no evidence that Sony paid for anything. No marketing deals announced, Cliffy and Sony have not said anything about a partnership. No word that Sony is funding the development of the PS4 version. Just cliffy stating that it'll appear on the PS4, and maybe other consoles later.

It's a fallacy to assume that every game that happens to be exclusive, timed or otherwise, is done simply because the console maker pays for it. Sometimes it's just a developer or publisher decision based on any number of factors.

I'm not one to always agree with Cliffy, and I have had my opinions which completely counter his own, but I always considered him a straight shooter. He doesn't play into PR rhethoric too often, and is quite arrogant about what he can do...which he can at least back up with skill. Nowhere with his statement would I read between the lines that Sony paid for timed exclusivity. Cliffy is the kind of person who would just straight up say that Sony was involved, and talk about some sort of partnership.

If you're going to put words into someone's mouth, at least do it from the proper frame of reference, and not just because you want to make some negative Sony comment.

S-Word3290d ago

The game is trash & Cliffy B is washed up.

Araragifeels 3290d ago

The saltines is strong in the Force

Godmars2903290d ago

And then you got Cliffy B making more of a deal about driving expensive cars, living like a rock star, rather than making more games.

Patriot4Life3290d ago

Cliffy B stated that people shouldn't compare his game to Overwatch which I agree...but unfortunately it will happen and his game will end up dead.

Feel sort of sorry for him but he should have made a game in a different genre.

derkasan3290d ago

I feel the same way. I get the feeling that this will be another Battleborn.

Liqvid3290d ago

I play a lot of OW, and I've played quite a bit of LB. The games play VERY differently.
LB is much more fast paced. and feels more like Unreal tbh.

Also, Overwatch is way more team focused, both in terms of team comp and sticking together with your team.
LB is way more more about individual skills. Way easier to carry a game in LB when you are good at a character.

That's the greatest thing about it, actually. OW can be so frustrating when you play like a god, but you still lose because your team played like a dud.

I really like the game, and I always miss it when an alpha/beta weekend ends. I will definitely be playing it alongside OW. I recommend it to anyone looking for a fast paced and fun FPS. And don't go in thinking it's like OW, because it is not at all.

My biggest complain would be the character art. I am not a big fan of most of the designs. But when I am zipping around with the grappling hook and slicing people along the way, I don't care that much.

Patriot4Life3289d ago

I think you're missing my point.

Battleborn was different than OW too but people still compared it and ended up a failure because of that.

You can also say they same about Evolved which ended up dead because of OW popularity.

Lilrizky3289d ago

@patriotrlife battleborn was bad thats why it failed. Evolve launched over a year before Overwatch. 2K doesnt know how to handle its franchises outside NBA2K and Activision are money making vets. Thats why battleborn and evolve flopped.

Liqu1d3289d ago

@Patriot Gearbox made the mistake of challenging OW instead of distancing themselves from it and promoting the aspects that were different from OW. To many people it looked like an inferior OW.

Evolve died because it just wasn't good. It was average and boring to play, even going F2P couldn't save it. OW had no effect on Evolve.

LawBreakers Being Revived Unofficially, Public Test Happening This Weekend

After six years since servers were killed off, LawBreakers is being revived in an unofficial capacity with playtests happening this weekend.

coolbeans771d ago (Edited 771d ago )

Hey, if Gigantic can garner enough attention it can happen for LawBreakers too. Funny thing is that both would share a similar story if going multiplatform:

-Gigantic remained Xbox One/PC until closure
-LawBreakers remained PS4/PC until closure

vTuro24771d ago

Oh shit, it's actually happening? This game was pretty dope. Shame the marketing was shit-tier.

Walalon770d ago

Yeah, the marketing side for this game was Uber Trash. But the gameplay was awesome

Lawbreakers was never successful, and therefore not worth reviving. It was hero-shooter [incorrectly labeled as an arena] that failed cash in off the popularity of Overwatch.

Gwiz1126d ago

LMAO I guess he really thought it was going to be competition.
This wasn't the only game that failed and claiming to be something entirely different.

Battleborn anyone?.

IamTylerDurden11126d ago (Edited 1126d ago )

Battleborn flopped but had more going for it than Lawbreakers. Oh how i had wanted to like BB. It had solid art and characters and a campaign but the gameplay nor story were there.

kryteris1126d ago

it having mobile graphics should have targeted that.

Inverno1126d ago

I'm still amazed this guy opened a new studio, and then shut it down after their first game flopped. Your excuses didn't matter cause all that people got was their money taken, and a product they could no longer play.
