Hopefully with EA not having exclusive license over Star Wars games, we'll be able to experience another golden age of Star Wars games where its just a bunch of different studios doing their own take on a Star Wars game.
Depends on how Disney licenses their games. If they ask too much for the license, the publishers will be more pressured to use scummy BS tactics like micro-transactions and lootboxes and NFTs.
@@pspublic13 eh, I think Battlefront 2 causing a worldwide and PR fucking shitstorm was the lesson both EA and Disney needed. If you look at the two SW games released afterwards... no MTX, lootboxes, or even paid DLCs in sight. Hell, even Fallen Order got content and a 60FPS update all for free.
That boba fett RPG would be cool to get made especially since Disney is doing him dirty, a xcom one would be cool unless it uses that fing hidden accuracy nerf. ( seriously hated that even before I found out it was a thing)
That's what happens when some suit who doesn't play games, goes online and sees Fortnite and thinks that's all people want. And then has the power to do whatever they want
As a senior QA (not a leader not a manager) I can say it is common thing to break big groups of QA engineers so they could join the development process. They go to small self-managing groups. Devs, QAs and artists + the Product Owner (business guy) work as equal team-members in iterative approach of building the modules. It makes testing the very early thing what leads to highier quality and lower costs of facing bugs. It's all good it builds up the bond of Devs and QAs. But, in this case it kinda odd to see only now. Also, there is a quite large branch of pre-release testing that involves separate QA groups. These are the dedicated ones especially in gaming industry they play a big role.

Battle Field 2042 is the best game ever! You ever want to glitch through a map, Shoot at someone with out killing them, see cars fly, A scoreboard that reminds you of your school life, the unlimited time to spend on leveling up your guns, the Fun time trying to be pared up with your friends, and even better yet a low low price of $135 including the season pass to make sure you can earn more "pointless stuff" I mean more cools stuff to use in the game and don't forget to listen to the AMAZING SOUND TRACKS!
Unions are of themselves, complicated and come with many problems. But, that being said if the unions remain focused on improving worker conditions and securing better benefits and stable compensation, that’s a good thing
OJ is right, I worked in an upscale office for years and people definitely go to the bathroom and do not wash their hands at all even after blasting ass. Never underestimate how disgusting some people can be.
@@thedeepfriar745 He said MK11 would get the same treatment on PC as on console, that was a lie. It got outsourced, the updates were delayed, and the PC crowd was treated like second class citizens. Among other things.
@King of The Zinger I'll take your word on those lol. What pissed me off was stuff like them going "we won't have character XY, too kinky" then once there was DLC money on the table they did it anyway.
I haven’t played a Battlefield game in a long long time. But I won’t lie, everything I’ve seen of 2042 looks like a dumpster fire. And it makes me wonder why in the hell they haven’t remade Bad Company or Bad Company 2. Then again. If this is their level of expertise nowadays… I don’t want them to touch those classics either. 😕
Me & buds got 2042 on sale. We enjoy the PvE and pop over to PvP for a few, then we pop back to PvE, once ( rarely. twice ) a week. Very conditional, but _WE_ are enjoying it. A daily PvP person, I’m unsure. 😁✌🏼
I'm under the mindset of: Don't bother remastering when you already own the disk for those games. Just go back and play them. Even if the studio was competent enough to make a good remaster, don't ask for it.
@@MLPIceberg I really like the idea of remakes where they basically do the same stuff (story, balance etc.) over again but with better graphics. There are plenty of games that I have played in my lifetime that I’d love the opportunity to replay but truthfully can’t stand to look at these days. Or are jank as hell when played on a 4k television. As for games like Bad Company, the biggest issue with “revisiting” these older multiplayer games is that the official servers often don’t even exist for them anymore. Or are a hot mess.
Republic Commando would be great. Doesnt even need to follow up on Sev. Lore: The song/chant from that game was a Mandalorian song, that Jango made sure to pass on to all his clones. It was about them united as brothers. Having them as a class in newer BFII sure was a treat.
This episode was pretty enjoyable. I think AJ&OJ joking with each other was hilarious & a good contrast to Alex. Just give the man a little more time to speak and we're A1
It’s been yeeears since I’ve played a Medal of Honor game and from my childhood memory it usually starts off with you in War then you go off on a secret solo missions which I actually think might work well in a Star Wars setting.
I'm rather burnt out on Star Wars in general to really want for more Star Wars games. Maybe those future games will change my mind but that won't be for a long time yet.
Cant relate, I feel EA has starved us of good Star Wars games. 3/4 of Battlefront 1 was locked behind paid dlc, Battlefront 2 was ok at best. I’ve yet to play fallen order but I do hear good things about it All in all, I would like to see more Star Wars in our video games, hopefully they’re good and hype you up 👍🏼
Pfft haha no they don’t EA has no clue how to use Star Wars. Only one game was successful Fallen Order it took Battlefront 2 multiple patches to make that game playable.
Give me a sequel to Empire at War for god sake. 20 year later and still no RTS on the market with similar design to that game. So many time I wish the Battlefleet Gothic got EaW design.
Thank you guys for making such good content. Going through a breakup right now, so it's good to be able to zone into a 20 to 40 minute video with some bros
Actually, a lot of people go into Q/A do so hoping to prove themselves and transfer to another department but in reality that's very difficult and they are usually kept separated or even isolated from the other teams and are looked at as lower on the totem pole. After a development cycle they are usually let go if they can't get into another department. Some testers like just being testers and can make a career out of it becoming leads and running entire testing phases of new development cycles, but that's not what most new devs trying to get into the business want to get stuck doing. Honestly getting to be embedded with the other teams might be a blessing in disguise. It sounds like working in a kitchen next to a master chef. Just getting to work next to them and learn by watching them and testing with them directly can give so many opportunities for advancement in the studio to a full time/permanent position.
LOL @Zachary Alt you deleted your post when you got told to watch the pervious video after saying Angry Joe didn’t covered the Bungie and Sony story XD
Firaxis is also the developer of the Civilization franchise… I for one hope it’s more like a Civilization style Star Wars strategy game rather than XCOM 😁
Here’s a thought. Maybe if workers were treated better in the gaming industry we would see more passionate games. Like I know corporate has a lot of influence and power over if a game releases and so on. But you can’t tell me a game wouldn’t benefit from having the people making it actually /care/ about the product. And not just seeing it as a soul-crushing job.
You’re forgetting that gamers are just as much to blame for this as some greedy corporation. Graphics over story now a days. Just look at Halo Infinite, that story is laughable but people don’t care so long as it looks good and the pvp is fun. He’ll even angry Joe forgave 434 and Microsoft for all the micro transactions because… well Joe is kinda a hypocrite but you get the point.
Tbh maybe (regarding the union topic) the people at raven don’t want to be in a union. It would be a leap to say that over 300 employees have the same mindset or to say they are scared. I think it would be wrong to coerce or force people into something they don’t want.
They didn’t get the salary thing but we didn’t get our hours either so people have too risk loosing jobs by picking up hours for competitors too make ends meat. Rich humans are just as dumb as every other human.
The whole bringing your phone to the bathroom tangent had me rolling lol. I use it to watch memes mostly. Unless I'm constipated I never spend enough time on the toilet to play a game
I have iCue RGB running on my Corsair mouse & KB, no ban for me. BTW, the EA Sponsored BF2042 stream had 100 people watching it, then it jumped as 30K, each with an exact duration of 3 minutes connected time, almost like someone had called up a bot service ;-)
Worked for walmart for 13 years. Every single day I'd hear "we arent anti union, we are pro associate". Especially when work situations kept getting worse and worse. Then mention the U word anywhere and you get interrogated by management before getting kicked out the door.
I'm watching this a day later and DICE announced that the next (first?) season has been pushed to Summer after this video came out. If it even happens, I'll be surprised at this point.
Battlefield 1 is now beating 2042 in player count, and rightly so. I could go hop on the game right now and still have things to do. I think I have proof of sloth up next. Only issue with 1 is the artillery trucks, that's it.
100% that star was Eclipse trailer confused me because for a moment i though it transitioned into a Stargate game because the fight attacking the freighter look way to much like the F-302.
i will say this, the silver timeline for the halo series is not a bad idea. The current cannon main time line continuity basically has told/taught us any fight the master chief is not involved in humanity loses and every one dies. so maybe with this new time line they can actually build some lore where humanity survives.
Over share time... I brought a little TV on a stand with my Xbox 360/Wii U and played on the commode for long periods of time while my kids were younger and I just needed a few minutes to myself. My wife and daughters thought it was hilarious. Now, my daughter does the same thing with the switch. But those times in the bathroom playing Skyrim, Dead Space, Mario 3D World? The best.
Fellas, its QA not Q&A :) Worked in QA for a long time now, and embedding QA in teams doesn't affect the ability to make a union. QA defo need a union worldwide, as we are brutally underpaid and treated like cattle. But embedding QA in teams provides experience and exposure to more complex forms of testing as well as providing exposure and experience with a discipline the tester may want to move in to. Defo not a substitute for being treated fairly, just wanted to highlight that its not all terrible :)
I've heard that people are getting banned from 2042 just for refunding the game. Your stats get wiped and you get banned from joining the official servers, saw this mentioned on Westie's tweet earlier today.
It’s so funny to me that there are people that genuinely think unions are objectively bad. I work in the warehouse industry. Before there was a union at my warehouse, we would make about 45k a year. Since we’ve unionized we make much more, last year I made literally over double that. I pay union fees of $68 a month and get free health insurance. There are lots of other benefits we have at my warehouse all thanks to our union. The people that really think unions are bad have been completely brainwashed and I hope they wake up
It may have worked for you but there are many places they don't work well and cause problems. For instance, the US postal service. They keep people on payroll that don't do their job. Nevermind that some people don't want to join a union but they are forced to if they want a job. Many unions also charge their people. Combine that with being forced into the union and you can understand that particular frustration.
5:10 no, I don't take my phone into the bathroom because it's disgusting. Put your phone right up your nose and give it a good sniff the next time you have a long pooping session with your phone in your hands. (Spoiler alert: It's going to smell like shit)
I'm curious to see what people think. Which one of these games was the biggest flop in recent time? A) Anthem B) Battlefield 2042 C) Cyberpunk 2077 D) Fallout 76 E) Other/ (Comment)
@@channel5980 Battleborn,paragon and lawbreakers were pretty fun they just launched when overwatch was in full swing. Lawbreakers was trying to be splitgate but it failed due to devs being kinda shity Fallout 76 was the biggest because they apparently used the same engine as fallout 3 and thats just lazy work for something that was really hype.
@@channel5980 Those games didn't have MASSIVE hype around them. A flop imo, needs to have been thought to be amazing and failed. I think Cyberpunk has to take the cake.
I just think the union issue is much more nuanced, and complicated than y'all give credit for. There's a lot of sides to the coin that need considering.
Raven doing everything they can to protect their jobs since Microsoft bought Activision, and they know their jobs are at risk after releasesing the hot garbage that was cold War and doing literally nothing other than release skins for warzone. There's been nothing but issues with that BR since cold War integrated and they've only started to talk to the community recently.
And yes there are some people that don't want to join a Union give them a choice and if it turns out bad for them well they did not join giving options to employees without pressure is a good thing.
Unions mark a failure of the local legislators to provide adequate worker protections in law. Everything you'd want from a union should be enshrined in law, not something you have to come back and renegotiate every couple of years.
Really happy to see you Joe expand and become big !! I use to watch your videos as a student back in 2013 back then your reviews kept me happy and entertained. I got hooked from the ride to hell review :) love you guys a lot !!!

Battlefield 1 is now beating 2042 in player count, and rightly so. I could go hop on the game right now and still have things to do. I think I have proof of sloth up next. Only issue with 1 is the artillery trucks, that's it.
And unkillable armored horses, with snipers on top.
100% that star was Eclipse trailer confused me because for a moment i though it transitioned into a Stargate game because the fight attacking the freighter look way to much like the F-302.
i will say this, the silver timeline for the halo series is not a bad idea. The current cannon main time line continuity basically has told/taught us any fight the master chief is not involved in humanity loses and every one dies. so maybe with this new time line they can actually build some lore where humanity survives.
if you make a shirt with you 3 sitting down talking about gaming news i will def buy some merch
I get so hyped for Star Wars when O hear you guys just throwing around upcoming games names
Over share time... I brought a little TV on a stand with my Xbox 360/Wii U and played on the commode for long periods of time while my kids were younger and I just needed a few minutes to myself. My wife and daughters thought it was hilarious. Now, my daughter does the same thing with the switch. But those times in the bathroom playing Skyrim, Dead Space, Mario 3D World? The best.
I don’t give a fuck about Star Wars and even I got excited about the idea of an XCOM-like game set in that universe.
Fellas, its QA not Q&A :)
Worked in QA for a long time now, and embedding QA in teams doesn't affect the ability to make a union.
QA defo need a union worldwide, as we are brutally underpaid and treated like cattle. But embedding QA in teams provides experience and exposure to more complex forms of testing as well as providing exposure and experience with a discipline the tester may want to move in to.
Defo not a substitute for being treated fairly, just wanted to highlight that its not all terrible :)
I've heard that people are getting banned from 2042 just for refunding the game.
Your stats get wiped and you get banned from joining the official servers, saw this mentioned on Westie's tweet earlier today.
Hey Raven made the Jedi Knight games, well the last two
What a legend: "Did you consider Phil, when you farted in his mouth?" xD
It’s so funny to me that there are people that genuinely think unions are objectively bad. I work in the warehouse industry. Before there was a union at my warehouse, we would make about 45k a year. Since we’ve unionized we make much more, last year I made literally over double that. I pay union fees of $68 a month and get free health insurance. There are lots of other benefits we have at my warehouse all thanks to our union. The people that really think unions are bad have been completely brainwashed and I hope they wake up
It may have worked for you but there are many places they don't work well and cause problems.
For instance, the US postal service. They keep people on payroll that don't do their job.
Nevermind that some people don't want to join a union but they are forced to if they want a job. Many unions also charge their people. Combine that with being forced into the union and you can understand that particular frustration.
U guys should talk about the "leaked" mortal kombat 12
Stuck under an invisible staircase. OJ: I’ve been there before hehehe
That 3rd new star wars game could be an RTS, commanding armies of storm troopers and rebels would be pretty interesting
5:10 no, I don't take my phone into the bathroom because it's disgusting. Put your phone right up your nose and give it a good sniff the next time you have a long pooping session with your phone in your hands. (Spoiler alert: It's going to smell like shit)
Cortana in the new Halo show... I don't know whether to say Yikes or Oof. Or both.
Is Alex contractually obligated to have to let AJ talk over him every time Alex is about to say something intelligent and add to the conversation?
I just hope EA doesn’t try to make a Force unleashed 3. If they did, they would ruin the series even more.
I hate how the 2nd game turn out...the 1st game (PS2 version) was masterpiece. The PS3 version just fine...
Is it intentional that other joes email address was shown in the video? Might wanna blur that or something.
Battlefield numbers are amped because Battlefield V and below is on gamepass ultimate. Would not be surprised if they add 2042 soon
I'm curious to see what people think. Which one of these games was the biggest flop in recent time?
A) Anthem
B) Battlefield 2042
C) Cyberpunk 2077
D) Fallout 76
E) Other/ (Comment)
You can't talk about recent flops without mentioning stuff like Battleborn, Paragon, Crucible, Disintegration, Lawbreakers...
As an old time gamer (34years old) BF2042 is my choice 😭
@@channel5980 Battleborn,paragon and lawbreakers were pretty fun they just launched when overwatch was in full swing. Lawbreakers was trying to be splitgate but it failed due to devs being kinda shity
Fallout 76 was the biggest because they apparently used the same engine as fallout 3 and thats just lazy work for something that was really hype.
@@channel5980 Those games didn't have MASSIVE hype around them.
A flop imo, needs to have been thought to be amazing and failed.
I think Cyberpunk has to take the cake.
@@coryyoung7544 F76 wasn't hyped... everyone knew it was a mastake as soon as it was announced. Also it wasn't the same engine as Fallout 3.
HOT NEWS : SEASON 1 BATTLEFIELD 2042 SEASON 1 DELAYED TILL EARLY SUMMER!!! - Yes it gets worse, much worse
5:00 I had to keep going back cuz i did not get why they argue about shiiiiiit????
LOL
20:40 how upset Alex got XD
I just think the union issue is much more nuanced, and complicated than y'all give credit for. There's a lot of sides to the coin that need considering.
Nah, fundamentally unions are good. Everyone should be in a union and if your union isn't doing a good job, make them do a better job.
I still have the grey gameboy with Tetris while pooping
You said there would be boots on the ground
Books are for pooping.
Wait, that didn't come out right...
RGB software doesn’t need to run while you’re playing this one game, it’s simple enough to disable.
Raven doing everything they can to protect their jobs since Microsoft bought Activision, and they know their jobs are at risk after releasesing the hot garbage that was cold War and doing literally nothing other than release skins for warzone. There's been nothing but issues with that BR since cold War integrated and they've only started to talk to the community recently.
This was at the time the main duties for Warzone was transferred from Infinity Ward to Raven (by Activision)
Right now cheaters are running amuk in Battlefield V...
This is why you just get a console. Very few cheaters on there. Kinda why I never bothered to get a gaming PC.
EA for sure seem Angryjoe review on Battlefield 2042 and that would not want him nowhere near the game
my mans calling a toilet a commode lol
Sony: I bought the company that makes Destiny.
And halo ,
@@Dr.Akakia Bunghole haven't had anything to do with Halo for 12 years...
maybe after the battlefield bans companies will replace RGB with better preformence.
And yes there are some people that don't want to join a Union give them a choice and if it turns out bad for them well they did not join giving options to employees without pressure is a good thing.
Unions are like people some are good and some are bad
@@someone-pz4dg yeah it’s a 50/50 with unions, some are good others are corrupt
Unions mark a failure of the local legislators to provide adequate worker protections in law. Everything you'd want from a union should be enshrined in law, not something you have to come back and renegotiate every couple of years.
I mean yes a union is a failure of the law but what’s the alternative? Not having them? We’ve seen how well that goes
@@Red-S-267 this is probably the stupidest shit I've ever read today
Really happy to see you Joe expand and become big !! I use to watch your videos as a student back in 2013 back then your reviews kept me happy and entertained. I got hooked from the ride to hell review :) love you guys a lot !!!
For someone who bought this dumpster fire for next gen and was denied a refund, It feels so good to see BF2042 fail and burn!
Hopefully not a Star Wars Xcom...but more of a RTS game. Like...Command & Conquer chic
Alex, Raaven is Activision's, not Blizzard.
Much love thanks for the content
The reviews that I trust the most is Angry Joe Show.
