      No anger issues here, years of multiple bad launches from many many games and devs have made the bar really high to overcome, in my brief 2 hour time with the game I have had 10 crashes, no ability to play with random ppl as most of my friends do not play horde shooters, so i rely on randoms to find ppl to connect with.
      This is the second game in 15 years on steam that I refunded, I will admit one thing as being my fault and that's, that I should of stuck with my usual way I buy games which is,
      wait 3 months to 1 year for all bugs to be smoothed out wait for reviews and never buy day 1 or pre order, it is my fault for breaking my own rules.

    Been playing since launch, incredible ride so far. A couple of matchmaking issues on day 1 but no disconnects.
    But this is a relatively small studio with around 100 employees, and the fact they fixed it up so fast should show people they care
    A sequel to a mostly unheard of twin stick shooter became a must have game of this year, with a million copies sold and hundreds of thousands of active players. They did not expect it to be this big and they’re working around the clock to fix this up

    I just want to say I played for about 16 hours yesterday, and I crashed once myself, had two connection failures between my group, and actually accrued about 2000 super credits in game, though I don't know how much luck I had with it. So compared to other games with "battle passes" this is super fair imo.

  • @phigbill
    @phigbill 6 місяців тому

    Put about 10 hours in yesterday, my takes:
    Pros:
    - There is a game here, right now it offers some level of replayability (see cons)
    - The core gameplay is fun, be it running solo or as a team there are fun dynamics, stratagems feel fun, although a little clunky at times to activate, but when you hit one correctly, and you see an entire wave of bugs gets blown to bits it's a great feeling and is visually excellent.
    - Gun play is excellent, all guns have their own feel, strengths, and weaknesses, keeps it fresh and fun, although access to new guns is a pain due to scaling / tiers in microtransaction (see cons)
    Cons:
    - As noted above, the game currently has some replayability, but even in a short period yesterday I found myself repeating the same quests, missions, and events pretty often, the game has just released so gets a pass from me, but as they're pushing live service they're going to have to find a way to keep things fresh in the long run and maybe bulk out some type of storyline for longer engagement.
    - During team play it would be better for teammate indicators to have their PSN/Online name rather than a Designation of T1, L2, P1 etc, would just make call-outs and team work much easier knowing who is where and doing what.
    - The game needs a basic jump mechanic, yes I'm aware you can get a jump pack later in the game (Level 8) but just the basic ability to jump would help, I've lost track of the amount of times I've been caught in terrain or even stuck, and I've had to button bash/dive to get free, just the ability to jump would have prevented this.
    - An in game option for auto-reload on mag empty, for me this hasn't been an issue, but I was playing with friends yesterday, and they constantly got caught out and died due to this.
    - Lack of overall weapon customisation, yes I'm aware you can hold down square to bring up a weapons option while in game (not for all weapons) and change scopes, fire rate, flashlight etc, but been able to build your own loadout even at a basic level would be helpful - Would also be nice to have even a small amount of weapon upgrades available, bigger mags, new ammo etc.
    - Microtransactions, showing my age here, but I'm not a fan, hate the tiered progress, you're forced to spend medals on crap you don't want to just unlock the next tier to then be able to get the gun or armour you're actually after.
    - Ship / Stratagem upgrades, for me the in game currency cost for some of these need reducing, you simply don't get enough credits to progress at a reasonable pace, a game like this should not have this level of a "grind" mechanic
    - Single player gamers, I know that this game is predominately focused on team play mechanics, but there are gamers who can't adjust life around their own or others people's schedules so can't always get on with a team, and then you also have people who don't want to play with randoms, Arrowhead are going to have to find a way to allow these players to same freedoms and access as team players, I've seen myself when I've jumped in solo that areas in the map are literally locked away and inaccessible (even down to basic things like re-stock / weapon bunkers) which require a minimum of two people to open / activate.
    - Servers, look OK it's Day 1, they'll have bugs in the system (pardon the pun), but the old excuse of "We didn't expect this level of demand" doesn't cut it for me, Sony and the Devs have gone on a total hype-train with this game, and it's live service, lost track how many times myself and the full team, got kicked mid-gameplay due to servers going up / down.

  • @bigquazz3955
    @bigquazz3955 6 місяців тому

    Not including the launch issues, the game still has some big problems to address. There is almost no real progression to be made in the game right now. There are only a handful of weapons, just one or two for each category assault rifle, marksman, shotgun, smg, pistol, and laser. None of them have any upgrades available.
    Stratagems you can upgrade with samples, but it is legitimately the lazyiest upgrade skill tree I've ever seen in a game. Each category of stratgem has only 3 upgrades available, and almost all of them are EXACTLY the same... a 10% cooldown reduction. The few exceptions that are different have even less impact. You can buy every strategem upgrade available and might not even notice a difference in game.
    The only real progression we have is leveling up, and using requisition to buy new stratagems.. but that list is very short and your level is a huge wall to get over while having to use the same few loadouts for 50+ hours.

    For the medals they seem to be easy to accumulate at higher difficulties from where I’m at so far, the currency isn’t terrible hard to get for super credits as well as paid content not being OP or p2W. The game has a lot of issues but the base potential is deff there, I couldn’t launch it on my pc and I ended up getting it on ps5 and haven’t had too much issues. The next week or 2 will be crucial for them to get everything working as it should..also crossplay does work as I played with pc friends but quick play matching is broken so if you don’t have friends it’s could be annoying to party

    I think my biggest issue so far is how it looks we will be unlocking weapons. Weapons I want to use are far down the unlock track or locked exclusively in the premium things (if I’m seeing it right). Like I want the revolver but I’m not paying the cash right now just to have it in my hands.
    Personally the text on my UI bugs out every single match to be entirely illegible and useless. Maybe this is an issue with having an ultra wide monitor so I can’t be too harsh on them, it’s annoying though.
    That said for a “battle pass” looking implementation it’s the best I’ve ever seen. So much opportunity to earn things in game including premium currencies over time

    Yeah. Numerous other titles have had these issues on launch and they didn't face this much backlash, if you really enjoy the game you'll push through and/or wait instead of taking a tantrum and losing your s**t. I'm sure those players have games in their library that have had problems... what game doesn't? At least it's getting fixed unlike some games that have bugs or issues that devs leave in the game after moving on from it because they couldn't be bothered fixing it.

    Only issue I’ve seen is that I’ve crashed twice but that’s no real issue cause I’ve never crashed during a mission oddly enough. My friend and I grinded it out for about 3 hours and had an absolute blast. Was surprised to see the mixed reviews on steam. The only thing I’d hate on it for is that I don’t see any mechs or vehicles like the first game had. To me that is the largest problem with the game as these made up nearly 1/5th of the strategems in the first game so they were a pretty large chunk of the gameplay, and it’s just not here.

    My only gripe with the game is the pay to win system. The only guns you can really get going forward will be paid for. I think they should have only made cosmetics for $$$, especially given that the game costs $40. I wish the weapons could be upgraded at least. The liberator is fun but after difficulty 4 there's no point in bringing it.

    I'm using RX 7800 XT and I couldn't get past tutorial, crashing 3 times and also closing Discord in the process, which was interesting.
    I'm suspicious that the problematic anti-cheat is maybe looking at discord as a cheat.
    Regarding performance, I manage to get past tutorial by lowering graphics settings and turning off Discord... After that I returned everything on very high, started using Discord and in 6h of my playtime got only one crash with game running and looking great in the meantime.
    Definitely wish them to sort technical issues ASAP because this game is hella fun.

  • @botterminator
    @botterminator 6 місяців тому

    I'm sure it feels great to shoot and kill enemies but I'm seeing the same issues Anthem had.
    It's fun at first, and then you get bored real quick doing the same thing over and over. The fun gameplay loop no longer becomes fun and is just a thing you do in the game.
    Only two factions (for now), no vehicles, microtransactions and a grindy system for unlockables that don't seem all that interesting and are too few and far between. That's not including the broken matchmaking, crashes and the usual anticheat program that causes more harm than good.
    Standards for games have dropped pretty considerably. They have a good concept and potentially fun gameplay loop, but the glaring issues and lack of content (which takes forever to unlock anyway) is going to stop me from buying it for now.
