@Aenea I think Sony's problem is that they kinda just brush these things off. They don't really even make an announcement about it, just like shareplay.
Shareplay has been around for some time now, but most PS4 owners don't even know what that is. Those same people don't even know what cross-platform play is.
I like that MS makes some noise when they make announcements. I bet XBox One will have some kind of shareplay system with in the year, ...
Nah... looks pretty believable to me. Looks good, looks about the proper amount of progression from the games we're have now, for consoles.
What kinda surprises me is the "shiny" look it has, I had always thought it was an UE thing but I guess it was just the art style of the GOW games. Correct me if they're using UE.
I think if Clans were active we would have stats on how often they went Rogue/player killed... imagine how awesome, or scary, that would be if you rolled into the DZ and saw the top Rogue clan ahead of you? Now imagine if your clan was taken out by said clan last week/yesterday/whatever... clan war!
I think it could add some longevity to the game.
wow, i didn't even notice that it wasn't there. I mean I didn't even bother looking. Those things usually unlock at a certain level. No brainer tho, clans would be great!
Stale... not that surprised, I could see that happening from time to time in a MASSIVE open space exploration game, it's gonna happen! It's also gonna be tough to judge such a possible massive game with such limited hands on time.
Even with some doubts about the game I will still probably pick it up.
I think it's safe to assume that every 1st party MS game is going to also makes it's way on to the Windows Store.
This game was on my radar ever since the first screens. But, there was something about the game play videos... I wasn't sure why. I thought, like most, that everyone who's played this so far as been pretty bad... and then I heard the latest GiantBomb Podcast.
Drew played it at the MS event. He said it looked great, but had this weird blurring in the background textures that made him think that it was to help with performance, but whatever. The other thing he said was ...
I think the fuss has all to do with it being a Remedy game. The people who actually played Remedy, for the most part, seemed to like it.
Remedy has, warranted or not, been pushed up there with other "legendary" game studios. Where are mere mention of ones name attached to a game brings shouts of "GOTY" "Amazing" "Classic"
I wonder how much people actually clicked on the article or just read the headline and saw RED, Argggg... Attack!!!!
I'm amazed at how many people like to think they're experts, just cause you own a PC and do all your own upgrades doesn't make you an expert. Reading up on how the tech works, without real world experience, doesn't make you an expert. Watching fights and actually being in a fight are two completely different things.
You bring up a really good point that I don't think anyone is... STEAM sells a lot of the same games on the consoles, usually at a discount. Now does that mean the prices change on the MS store side? Cheaper digital games or does it change on the STEAM side? Console style pricing on digital games?
This would be very interesting, as up til now PS has been, or should I say used to be, friendly with Steam... yes, they were maybe not anymore.
Maybe Valve is fully embracing Windows...
I try my darnedest to now get to excited over footage that's reveal by Ubisoft, it just happens way too often with them. Don't show us what you think it'll look like, or hope, wait til 6-8 months before a game is released to reveal it... not 2 years like WatchDogs.
I know other Devs have and still do this, but does Ubisoft do it more often or are true just releasing a lot more games?
Do they say if it will be built on UE4 or something completely new?
But back on subject, I think this statement should be standard whenever a new "AAA" game is announced. At least this is what i've been seeing. Almost every new AAA game is better, visual, than the one before it.. makes sense, these dev's have had more time with these consoles. They now know the ins and outs. Can't wait to see what this game will look like!
The article makes some good points. Mainly that Sony doesn't have a OS its trying to sell, MS does. MS is using the Xbox as a way to help sell people on Windows10.
Please, Please tell me that you've been showing us the Xbox One build this whole time.. Please! Cause I'm highly considering picking up a One for this game. Don't do us like Ubisoft has been!
Edit... I can't read the previews, at work, let me know if they were playing on One's! Thank you!
In all honesty I think it's console gamers, which I am one, trying to "show face" in front of a growing number of PC gamers who play at above 1080p on a regular basis. It becomes an issue, a really big one, to PC gamers when console manufactures/gamers claim that these consoles are "the most powerful machines" "Most advanced graphics chips" "best graphics ever". So PC guys are forced to chime in, "It's not even 1080p" or "it's...
If that's what it takes to bring it to parity with the other versions... then that's what needs to happen.
I'm sure that is much more preferred than downgrading the graphics to achieve "full" 1080p... right?
Just make all games, Xbox & PS4, 900p so that we can get stable FPS or better graphics... or is the 1080p status that important?
I know it's a beta, but the screens don't look as "gorgeous" as they use to. I would sacrifice the 1080p for 900p if it got closer to the look we've been sold leading up to this beta.
Really tho, almost no reasonable amount would be "enough". You can't give creators free reign, you have to set limits and deadlines. If you have them 12 GB to work with I'm sure some would still find that "not enough".
Ever tell a car guy that his car has "enough" horsepower?
So $399 without the camera or move controllers...
Get out there and pick up your PS Cameras and Move controllers today! Cause they're dirt cheap ATM, who knows if the prices will go up later this year. Does anyone know if Sony will be releasing an updated move controller?
