Why they spend so much money on the game? Why Epic earns so much money from something you do not need in game? If you like the game, you will buy everything the game offers for you, unfortunately all the costumes and items are behind the microtransactions wall and you have no option but to pay for it. The most friendly way is to make game fixed 20-40 and buy everything with in-game credits but it's not profitable enough. Basically it's a trap (very well sorted out trap) but people pra...
My point is, you cannot play the game comfortably, because upgrading and personalization will cost you real world money. We all want to customize and this type of approach is pure cancer.
20 usd per costume..yeah..a happy customer. This game is build around to tear your wallet apart..free..but spending much more on costumes than making the game for 20-40 usd and free stuff. Ppl will pay this amount and cry internally. Imagine a free Aventador but the car using special petrol you can buy only directly from lamborghini and costs 1000 usd per a gallon. I believe that the whole picture is uglier than you see it first. Costume is a different skin for your character, same as a new c...
Not convincing enough. If they were not interested in the money and feel sorry to all the ppl who doesn't have time to play, at least make them cost 0.10c per car..not like 3$ for many of the cars, pure robbery. They will know, many also buy with that cost and earning ton of extra money.
Ok no loot boxes. All we need is a shop for all the items, special events and special points to buy all of this cosmetic thingy, credits only for the cars and tuning, exactly like FH4 does. Another currency would be necessary, as the money almost jumps itself into the pocket in a Forza game and then it would not be any more interesting.
My opinion about the loot boxes and how they should work in a racing game...
Only for cosmetic items, no boosters or hidden cars. Give me a shop instead (like Horizon 4 does) where I can buy all the costumes, accessories and such from the beginning of playing the game Maybe some unique paint jobs for my car (really high quality and complex). Unicorn (behind some sort of a wall) cars are ok up to 10..no more. I absolutely don't like how they present the cars in the shop...all the...
Question about the digital only future. How do you say to a customer ... Go and get better internet connection then. Who pays for that, Microsoft? There are so many houses still using an old cable, like mine, where the fastest speed is 20MB/s. There is no Fiber Optic yet. I refuse to download games from the Store.
Looks like a physics demo of some sort, not a real sp experience. Cuttings corners imo. Max Payne to Alan to Quantum to this...constantly moving away from the excitement that Remedy once brought.
Because 4K is good enough to remove all the jaggies. Now we need more power to boost the texture resolution (Halo Infinite engine demo for example), physics in games overall and/or higher frame rates. 4K as a resolution is perfect, where to build the rest, what I mentioned. Games are much more than a resolution alone.
As I understand, this new Xbox tries to draw an equal sign between the CPU and the GPU to balance it out. Today's consoles are like 70% GPU and 30% CPU. Any major leap in physics, beyond the resolution, is unthinkable.
This happens when you show the best and then the game begins to quietly slow down.. you're not able to hold the momentum...exactly what happens with the Days Gone.
