Yea, the fact that's the main point they're pushing, that it's 4K x 60FPS, already lets me know they're gonna do the same thing. Hopefully they atleast learn this time not to have a money-grab season pass, before they put together actual worthy content for the season pass.
Do some research. There's tons of issues with the Windows Store. I already made the main point about it though. It kills any chance of a PC population.
I'm more concerned with the gameplay and features of the game. The Coalition had a very hard time doing the basics with GOW4, and never even got a ranked stats page added in-game, because "it's too much UI work". Statements like that, for features like that, are very worrying and telling of the talent and skill level of a dev team.
That, plus the fact I'm on PC, and they are headstrong in keeping it on Windows Store for the PC side, it's basically ...
No, they didn't can it. They are completely reworking it. I have a feeling they took notice to everyone being underwhelmed that it was just a hub house you go to and then go directly to these little dungeons from there. It seems they are aiming for it to be more open-world with the same 4p multiplayer, where you have the dungeons and the outer world and more of a full experience. They made hints at it way back when they were still willing to talk about it when people would bring it's ...
TRUTH. Played the hell out of it on the original Xbox. I was robbed of my SS rank, because of quitters, and how the ranking system locks you in your rank after the 1st 1000 matches. That game was so fun and had such a flexible system, and Capcom's interpretation of the SNK characters was great. I miss that game, I had a cool created color/name for every character.
They need to make an 3D Odyssey type Mario game with more Super Mario 2 mechanics in it.
It's a huge disappointment anyways. No effort was put into the 3D gfx, and the horrible voice acting with no lip syncing doesn't help. They also missed out on a huge opportunity to add online multiplayer. I disagree with people saying SoM shouldn't have been remade, it's one of the best RPGs ever imo. I just wish they treated the remake as such.
So far this one hasn't hard froze Gears of War 4 for me. For the longest, I've been stuck on 382.53, because every single driver past that would hard freeze GOW4 after a short period of time. Hopefully it stays going smooth.
@Lex Yea, if I just bought the game and hadn't done anything yet. I've already done most/all base character stories/trials and a few Easy-Normal Survival. You can get maybe 2-3 characters, but to really get enough for them, you need to do the 50 or 100 level Survival. I'm not doing that cheap crap, where the "random" bonuses always give you the small health boost before a harder fight. Also, you get zero payout if you don't fully complete Survival.
...
Yea, it sucks too, because if you were to go to the Capcom forums and try to point out that fact, they'll just hit you with the fact that you technically can "earn" the characters. That doesn't change the fact that the general public isn't gonna get ALL the characters, and again, not even get the few characters they want, for quite a while after they each release.
So all the better players, and players around the same skill level, that either cheat/ove...
I haven't played SFV in forever now. I still can't get over the fact they're basically selling characters, something Ono said he'd never do, comparing it to a game of Chess, where everyone needs all the pieces.
Sure, you can use credits to get characters, but you can't get them ALL off the bat, nor will you be getting the ones you want immediately, unless you either cheat or are a maniac with the horrible survival mode.
So, you're ...
They could add to that list Gears of War 4's money-grab of an empty $50 Season Pass and their RNG packs that have overpriced $-options with no guarantee on the items and tons of duplicates. Past games in the series had progression unlocks for characters and weapon skins. Now it's all 1 big money-grab, with this random D- level dev team, The Coalition, that was handed a top franchise on a silver platter.
Whoa, that's pretty crazy!
Yea, though I'm happy they're acknowledging such a beloved classic, it's definitely not the treatment it deserves. The 3D models are super low budget and kinda ugly. I'd rather HD Bastion type gfx if they weren't gonna go all out with the 3D models. Plus, they dropped the ball with not having online multiplayer, since the game supports 3 players.
They could give it 100 on Metacritic, it doesn't represent the state of the game currently. People aren't happy, and there is hardly any population. TC is as incompetent as it comes, definitely the post-launch dev team. The main point is that it needs Steam for a population though, not how crappy TC is.
Gears 4 needs to go to Steam like KI is going. It's the only thing that'll save the dwindling population, especially with such a crap dev team like TC behind the franchise now.
Oh snap, then do a NEW Mana game.
Nawh, I think some People Can Fly members may be part of the team, but it's The Coalition, which use to go by the name Black Tusk Studios. Their whole RNG microtransaction ecosystem is a nightmare. The $-option is insanely overpriced, like mostly 10x what seems a fair price for most packs.
Their events are lazy and just regular gamemodes, and only last a weekend for most other than Horde events, unlike Overwatch. They move super slow with fixing minor/major issues, and ...
If only Gears of War 4 devs cared, and weren't dedicated to being full-on anti-consumer corporate schmucks.
Multiplayer games, like COD:WW2, the Windows Store version was DOA for an online population. We're talking about COD here. There's a huuuuuuge difference when it comes to player population for multiplayer games. The Windows Store games are DOA for playerbase, unless there's cross-play. Cross-play is the only thing that saved Gears 4 on PC. UWP is trash also, and just recently Shadowplay was made to work with the horrible UWP and I don't have to use Desktop Mode for Gears 4 fin...
