'Communities' isn't really a parallel to 'LFG'. 'Clubs' is the Xbox parallel to communities.
Microsoft implement community and social features better than Sony imo, but tbh I don't really use any of them on either console. I just switch on and play games.
Though physics and AI are only CPU-bound tasks because Activision are too miserly to provide servers for Destiny 2. It's not even like Destiny supports offline play, so there is no excuse.
Unnecessary. Most people in this comments section seem to be talking about Microsoft anyway.
"Legit" $$$$$
As a PC gamer I have to say I don't deliberately stick to the team uniform. I'm just more comfortable without clothes on.
Unfortunately if Destiny 1 is any indication, the timed exclusive content is held for a year, with further content blocked in every expansion as well.
It is a shitty deal.
Key difference being Battlefield games are server hosted, and the server takes care of the important (shared) physics calculations.
Bungie say they don't need servers, despite offering this glaring evidence to the contrary...
What does that mean? Are Sony contributing something more than just money and a likely spotlight at E3?
That doesn't take any time at all. Exclusives are typically perceived as the best things ever from the moment they are announced.
Even dastardly EA provide servers to host their multiplayer games. And they're the worst company in the world.
Conversely, Gabe Newell could have contributed the same amount to the gaming industry as you. Then we wouldn't have played the first 2 Half Lifes, Portals, Counterstrikes, Team Fortresses, or Left 4 Deads.
But sure, he's the prick.
Means little, other than Microsoft are taking sensible precautions. Imagine the reaction if Sony and Platinum announced Scalebound for PS4?
EA are actually pretty aggressive in reducing the prices of their games. You can pick up most of their AAA console offering for under a tenner about a year after release (or of course play them on EA Access). Biggest issue with them is their love of season passes and micro-transactions.
Valve and their Steam platform have been great for PC gaming. A monopoly isn't good for consumers though, so people should be open to shopping elsewhere as well. Simples.
You shouldn't feed off of things Gt says, he is clearly mental.
It is highly likely they will give consumers the option to buy a variety of HMDs (they've said as much in the past). Whether that is limited to the Windows Mixed Reality sets, or inclusive of Rift and/or Vive remains to be seen.
I'm betting it can outsell Screamride :)
Their "mixed reality" terming includes VR. In fact the early versions of it are basically VR headsets, with cameras.
What a strange reply. Hololens has not been released as a consumer product, and the commercial suite costs over £4000. There is no comparison to be made.
@Golby I'm not saying you can't find groups on PS4. You can do all that within Xbox Clubs as well. The two features are very similar, Clubs is basically a direct copycat of Communities.
LFG is also available independently of Clubs. It offers a more lightweight and direct way to organise groups than either clubs or communities, and it serves its own purpose.
