I really think it's great. I obviously hope they add bigger maps and naval elements to the maps to really drive the "full scale war" feeling that BF 4 had but I'm sure that's coming down the tracks.
Also -- weather and dynamic time of day!
But these are mere additions, I really think the base they have here is the best MP I've played since Battlefield 1
I guess the campaign sets up lore for the multiplayer, but it was SO poor/low budget I was kinda shocked.
Pax Armata are such a lame enemy that I think it might have been better if we actually didn't know what we know about them from the campaign.
It's very good imo. I haven't played a CoD since MW2019 and I really like this.
I do imagine it will slide off once the Warzone thing kicks off again, which I am not into...a shame as the multiplayer is REALLY nice. It kinda reminds me of the old Call of Duty games (namely BO 1 & 2) which I loved.
Maybe ban some of the ridiculous ones?
I'd love it if they added modes that were extremely difficult. Obviously it's not for everyone but I love (in a somewhat masochistic manner) really difficult platformers, and Astro is SUCH a good base platform, the mechanics are so nice....but the game was a breeze difficulty-wise
I think people falsely assume that because one is a bit disappointed with Sony it means we like Microsoft and their shambolic Xbox offering.
Firstly, Xbox is gone to the dogs. A dead entity as far as I'm concerned.
Second though, this market monopoly is allowing Sony to become complacent. They have no incentive to really drive innovation because they are running the core console market now. Astro is great, but everything else just seems a bit bland...
I think this is the really pressing matter.... people get too bogged-down thinking it's some kind of indictment of Sony, but the reality is videogames have been really quite stagnant in terms of technological momentum to feel like upgrading to even enthusiasts. That is true of PCs, and is (to me) true of the PS5 Pro.
If it sells (assuming this rush we're seeing on the pre-orders isn't scalpers leaping in) then I guess that alone justifies its existence, but I wi...
Ditching the series was a real silly move.
I'm Sony's lineup it would have made a superb rival to Forza Horizon and also a more arcadey stablemate to Gran Turismo.
I just don't think that will work this time.
They've MASSIVELY lost customer goodwill so will have to deliver massively to rope them back imo.
You could be right ofc but if it is that, then it will be a financial disaster
Honestly, get them to sit down and play Bad Company 2 together.
If they can't see why that had the magic, they shouldn't be game developers.
You're conflating people who post online (who are generally far more into games than the average consumer)
I would guess that it might be because people now associate Astro with freeware.
It's a shame because PSVR 2 with GT7 and RE8 are the most incredible videogame experiences I've ever had.
GT7 in PSVR 2 with a sim rig is absolutely insane. It's just like driving my actual car ata race track. Everyone should experience it at least once!
Perhaps something needs to be said about a more accessible way to play PC games in a plug+play fashion (this massively turned me off when I briefly tried them)...BUT, the fact is, if you're dropping that kind of money you obviously really care about high fidelity videogaming, at which point....why not at least consider going all out?
That's MS's fault. If they made a quality product people would flock to it, you cannot blame consumers for this
I think the issue though is that Nintendo squarely go after a totally different market. Sony needs a competitor keeping them honest.
Plucky Squire looks excellent. I might wait for physical version as definitely want to support these kinds of videogames
Perhaps a slower than anticipated long term release schedule forced them into playing their hardware hand
GTA 6 at 60FPS is literally the only hint of interest I'd have in this thing. That actually speaks volumes. Everything else is just 'why would I need a Pro console for this'?
Put this on PSVR 2 and watch the sales numbers!
