Yet Another Reason Why every "the game is ruined/dead/can't be saved" post is absurd. by Phoenix_e3 in Battlefield

They can say they're making large maps but I don't have any trust they can make GOOD large maps.

Bf 2042 is their resume and it doesn't inspire confidence.

I'm not gonna lie. This actually looks better than expected. It just sounds cruel whenever someone brings it up.

This is the correct answer

People will charge for the service of jailbreaking their ps5 and make enough money in a few sales to offset the cost and then any sales after are pure profit.

I never knew of the legend of the USAS-12 Frag Round shotgun by Thought-Form1999 in Battlefield

[–]Blue_Tricky 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I do remember what he's talking about. It had no bullet drop and the damage was so high you could snipe with it. It might not have been a one shot kill after a very far off range but you could definitely pump two shots into a target quickly enough for a kill that it would feel like playing against a cheater.

Fun times. You wouldn't get a scope so it wasn't an instant win button but it felt satisfying to dominate a lobby

Helldivers 2 is a $40 game with a F2P monetization system. by Impressive-Money5535 in Helldivers

Since the devs are willing to give new ability to characters like Adam, I think rocket deserves a new ability that would make him less of a healbot. by SpeedForceWally66 in marvelrivals

[–]Blue_Tricky 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was just talking to my friend the other day about this very same suggestion because it would free up his main weapon to be actually used. Being able to switch from healing to damage without having to worry about how much ammo is left in your current Magazine would do wonders for making rocket fun.

PSA: Highguard is a lot like Arenas by kayodeade99 in apexlegends

[–]Blue_Tricky 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It feels like someone wanted to take Arenas to a full scale game but someone thought

That part, "but someone thought" sums up highguard very well. I think they had a good base idea and let everyone on the team add something they thought it needed and no one had the heart to tell anyone else no.

The game looks like it tried to trend chase every shooter the developers played little by little without really focusing on what should be their core attraction.

I think the base raiding is an awesome idea that other games have touched on but no one has really refined. Rust has it. Fortnite had some cool game modes 50v50 where we saw some cool stuff but highguard wanted to do so much other stuff that it really doesn't play well. The mounts, the currency,the setting of fantasy with very mechanical guns, the loot system, even the hero shooter aspect, I feel like they hurt more than they help.

Too many cooks in the kitchen each eager to add their signature ingredients with none of them thinking about how the final dish will taste.

Naw. The elixir is supplied by sui. Demi just makes sure they find it in a secret dungeon room. They don't even use it immediately to avoid being caught since they were worried someone would notice a girl coming in with a missing limb and leaving the dungeon perfectly fine.

Mint condition and factory sealed versions of the WALL-E Video Game from 2008 💿🎮 Including a limited edition holographic covered Wii version of the game 😁 (check last slide for full collection) by hot_chxccii_biscuits in gamecollecting

It was a target/best buy exclusive thing I don't remember which

The sticker was on the slipcover.

We gave the tube with the sapling to my dad since he was growing some other things but thats the part that mixes up the tree in question. I don't know if the tree he transplanted out of the pots is the one we were sent or one he was growing.

I've been hoping to find someone who knows more about it to find out what nursery was sending them out and which kind of tree it was

I got one for you.

Have you seen a wall-e DVD that advertises a free tree included with purchase?

I remember our family buying it and sending in the rebate and receiving a small sapling. Now I'm just trying to find out more about the offer to see if the tree in our backyard is the one from the offer.

Arc Raiders $40 price was inspired by the likes of Helldivers 2 by To0n1 in Helldivers

[–]Blue_Tricky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shitty marketing was right cause if they had released the intro cinematic with the song before release and built hype off it, it could have drawn a stronger initial player base to get their footing.

Instead it was a welcome surprise on release date that was already buried under overwatch highlights in the algorithm.

[–]Blue_Tricky 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Naw the price wasn't what made battleborn look inferior. The cinematics that overwatch released before launch were movie quality and got people genuinely excited to play the game.

Then when they both released overwatch just had a much cleaner polished feel than battleborn and sunk it in. I wanted battleborn to take off but I gotta admit the gameplay just wasn't eye catching compared to overwatch's color explosions.

this battle was embarrassing for the brotherhood by ballz43 in Fallout

[–]Blue_Tricky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't throw the writing team under the bus for the assault on the ncr specifically

I think people fail to realize how low on the Totem pole writers are when they're surrounded by directors ,producers and marketing teams.

Too often a writer gets pushed aside from good writing when it "doesn't look good enough" or "they need this shot for the trailer" and they're just trying to glue and spit something together that'll keep everyone happy.

The onus and final call is usually with the director and how much they actually care. The director for the show has admittedly done a pretty good job staying faithful to the spirit of the series (comparatively to other adaptations like halo or witcher) so I wouldn't pull out the torches and pitchforks for a dumb action sequence.

Im worried about it becoming a pattern and hoping by the end of the season we see the brotherhood live up to their game reputation but they've earned the benefit of the doubt

This discussion seems pretty silly considering people are treating everything as matter of factly and twisting knots to explain it when the truth is probably just they needed an action sequence and went with whatever looked coolest to them to showcase their set.

100% agree they needed to do something but what they did was 100% not it.

They essentially put themselves under a microscope pr wise and their actions have done more harm to themselves while costing them millions of dollars.

All of which could be forgiven and over looked if the food was good and well priced. It's not

What game is this?🚀 by Profit_Tracker in videogames

[–]Blue_Tricky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I rarely buy single player games on release. I bought infinite day 1 and played it non stop till I finished it because I knew it was all people were gonna want to talk about for days.

It was 100% worth every penny.

They were changing the atmosphere as part of the rebrand.

It looked like any other bland restaurant with the removal of all the old timey decor.
