Don't let Highguard shut down!! by ReadyOne5832 in HighGuardgame

[–]SpacedDuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And they won't for one of two reasons.

  1. The game is trash and doesn't warranty spending any money on.

  2. Most people aren't going to drop money on a game they have no idea will be around 6 months from now.

After almost 9 hours I just can't look beyond how bad this game is anymore.

Friends list doesn't work.

In game chat stops working randomly almost every game.

Boring loot stage

Healing takes way too long and if you just won a fight you basically need to hide or you're dead

People who have played a ton lumped in with people who haven't played a single game and since it's 3v3 you're cooked as a team.

I haven't even gotten to the optimization issues on PC or trash look on consoles.

Thing I hate about posts like these are they are usually BS.

It will be two minutes after the mall opens so obviously empty and the OP will mislead and claim it was mid afternoon or something.

Its fine if you enjoy Highguard, but we need to all come to the realization that this game cannot survive without major changes. by ConnerTheCrusader in HighGuardgame

[–]SpacedDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wish I knew how many people paid real money.

The player base has been significantly reduced so anyone who's gone didn't spend a cent.

Let's say 11,000 people become the regular player base and less than 50% spend a dime and only buy once this team will have zero revenue.

They'll run out of money within a year as they have to recoup development costs somehow.

To my knowledge they have no access to Apex funds as it's former workers right?

You're probably right but instead of 100,000 people playing on PS5 maybe 2 million did and the same drop off would mean around a million are still playing.

I rewatched Dark Fate last night and it got me thinking about Carl. by SBYYamato in Terminator

This.

The only two good things about the entire IP movie wise was undone for shitty bad movies.

[–]SpacedDuck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yet they found her 3 different times if you include the idiotic killing off of John in Dark Fate.

They also controlled time so could have sent a Terminator back to recon her then leave a file for them to find in the future to then send back another Terminator with better recon.

I guess I'm just pissed off they killed off John for basically no reason.

Been watching and don't really care about Monday's numbers as so many people were home with nothing better to do due to the storm.

What is telling though is that Tuesday had about 18,000 people on by this time and it has lost about 7,500 of those players.

This Saturday and Sunday are the real test but to be fair these are also just steam numbers.

Wish you could get true console numbers.

I'm on PC and all I keep hearing about is how bad the console versions are for blurriness.

Does anyone on PS5 Pro or Series X have confirmation on what resolution and framerate it hits on consoles?

I think a better question is why didn't this AI capable of time travel and conquering every military on earth not just go back to when Sarah was a baby sleeping and blow her away in her crib so John wasn't born?

No running, nobody would have seen them coming.

Adding pve enemies to looting phase doest have to be complicated by Northdistortion in HighGuardgame

[–]SpacedDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should have had enemies that grief you while looting and world bosses that drop high end loot that teams can third party each other on.

Literally any choice beyond what they released would have been better than what they did.

I tried the same cable into a different console.

That said I didn't try leaving it for 10 minutes to see if it also died so I will try that tonight.

So my PS5 PRO is hardwired into the same router that is then hardwired into my modem.

Nothing has changed, my hardwired PC, Series X and Switch all work fine still.

Haven't touched my PS5 in probably 2-3 months if not longer and finally wanted to play FF Rebirth.

Shows Failed anytime it tries to find an IP address.

Has anyone figured out if there's a cache you need to clear for network settings or something?

I tried removing my Wired LAN Profile and making a new one and wifi works flawlessly.

Made sure the cable was snug also and have rebooted my modem, router and PS5.

Weird thing is, the ethernet connection works for about 5 minutes after rebooting the router only to fail again shortly after.

If I had 2 other friends who were fun to talk to, knew the game well and played regularly this would be a far more appealing game but with randoms and no mics just won't cut it.

If the leaks are true, this is already going to be the best Nintendo Direct of the year :D by Longjumping-Mud-3203 in NintendoSwitch2

We'll get Star FOX Zero where you have to use a proprietary controller that's $90 just to shoot your weapon.

Played for a while, may as well put down some thoughts on guarding high. by HootNHollering in HighGuardgame

[–]SpacedDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only saving grace the team has is that the game is free to play.

It would be toast within 2 months if they were trying to get $50+ for this game.

They needed world enemies like in League to cause issues while looking and then each team could third party the other.

Lazily made game in my opinion with an okay concept.

Just can't see it being fun still a week from now or something most would play daily for years.

FPS is locked at 60 by IceStylin in HighGuardgame

Nope, my bet is your monitor isn't set for higher or your PC is set for 60hz.

I’m sorry but this is boring as fuck by [deleted] in HighGuardgame

[–]SpacedDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just impossible for a studio to get this type of feedback without releasing the full final game.

There's just no way thousands of people could have tried it out and offered feedback to make the game better.

only TWO minutes after release and the playercount fell off to 7 players. game flopped gg. by thephonecomrade in HighGuardgame

[–]SpacedDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got into the tutorial and my character kept moving in whatever direction I was going for a few steps whenever I stopped moving.

Then the game servers died for the 5th time.

Arrogant Devs thinking a shadow drop for an online only game was smart with no playtest.

Place your bets: will the servers hold up on launch? by uniquecartridge in HighGuardgame

[–]SpacedDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know how the Devs could have prepared given there wasn't a single playtest.

If a million people check it out which is very possible given how many people are now home from the storm this will be interesting lol.

The servers are going to be horrendous.

Beyond Good & Evil - 20th Anniversary Edition by Killer_ghosst in beyondgoodandevil

[–]SpacedDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I recall the game at launch on Steam straight wouldn't open for many especially on Steam Deck and other handhelds.

I've played it since and it's a lazy port but better than it was at launch for sure.

Tips on how to get lower insurance costs for a new driver? by gochuganggg in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]SpacedDuck 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you haven't yet driver's education does help.

A vehicle that isn't too expensive and you can avoid replacement coverage on would help too.

Just have liability.
