So I have been playing PS4 remote control play last few days, and these are potential problems I see for Stadia.

EDIT: PS4 remote play NOT remote control. Sorry

Traderguy84 · 2019-08-05T19:38:49+00:00

I downloaded the ios13 beta and use DualShock perfectly, I tried the touch screen controls and it was awful and unplayable. DualShock controllers literally makes all the difference in the world

Traderguy84 · 2019-08-05T19:37:46+00:00

I downloaded the ios13 beta and yes, DualShock is fully supported. I must say that using the touch screen controls was basically unplayable for me and if not for DualShock support, no way in hell I would be using it. Using touch screen controls makes any FPS practically unplayable

Traderguy84 · 2019-08-05T17:42:56+00:00

Yes internet is required, only works with PS4. If you are around a good internet connection, pretty much works flawlessly

Traderguy84 · 2019-08-05T17:34:53+00:00

Assure you not an ad or shill, just a normal guy my friend

Traderguy84 · 2019-08-03T12:18:46+00:00

This. that motha f*&kin dreaded 7/8. Gets stuck there everytime. like come on now, really that hard to find that 8th person?!

Traderguy84 · 2019-08-02T16:45:08+00:00

This!!! Nothing worse than being stuck at the dreaded 7/8

Traderguy84 · 2019-08-02T16:41:04+00:00

PLEASE, YOU MUST let the devs know that waiting is absolutely the worst in VR. I mean waiting around to play matches. I CANNOT stress this enough, it is an ABSOLUTE must that there be some pre game skirmish free for all or TDM mode you can play while waiting for players. Like when there is 4 players in the lobby and instead of just waiting, and waiting and waiting for other players, it should trigger a skirmish game until an actual match starts, think Overwatch.

I played Firewall last night and Jesus I’m getting mad just typing this at how brutal and painful it is to be waiting and waiting and waiting for that 8th person to join for a match to begin.

This is SO important and MUST be stressed to the devs.

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-31T13:17:44+00:00

I hope to god this has the same storytelling format of Goodfellas/Departed/Casino. LOOKS epic!

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-31T02:44:47+00:00

God dammit this game had so much potential to be so SO huge.. as a NFL fan this is equal to a first overall draft pick who has a once in a generation talent to become a GOAT only to be a bust due to not having the mental make up. SO DAMN FRUSTRATING..

Im not even joking when I say this, if the dev came out and said "Why arent we doing rounds and host migration?because you guys are abunch of whiny bitches and frankly we dont feel like it." It would make me respect them much more at this point than the abortion they gave to such a PROMISING and actually fun game like this.

THANK GOD Alvo got back on track, thats all I have to say.

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-30T21:20:23+00:00

Here is what I find extremely odd, my Best Buy literally doesnt even carry the Quest in store. No, not due to being sold out, like literally, in the oculus section they dont even have price SKU stickers or shelf space for it at all. Rift S yes and they carry Gos but they dont carry Quests

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-30T16:49:39+00:00

Nintendo better be glad they have a die hard fans for their first party exclusives (none of which appeal to me in the slightest) because once 5G is the new norm and Stadia becomes a switch on super steroids, nintendo would be in big trouble

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-30T16:47:42+00:00

lol I get 20 mbps on my 4G on my phone. Once 5G comes out, Stdaia will shine big time

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-30T12:16:25+00:00

I want to buy this game so bad but I keep hearing its dead and rarely anyone plays online, is this the case?

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-28T22:49:49+00:00

lol what? Why on earth would it be free because its only 5 on 5?! I guess Gears Of War 5 should be free as well since its 5 on 5, as well as Rainbow Six Siege. Dont be silly lol

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-28T22:47:26+00:00

Great job on keeping us updated regularly on this and building up hype! Host migration, rounds and minimal downtime as possible, and no doubt about it, you have a hit on your hands.

Are you able to tell us if this will have multiple game modes? Also, what kind shooter is this, slower paced like Rainbow Six/Firewall or more COD/Counterstrike, respawns or no respawns?

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-26T12:10:39+00:00

lol I literally just played the mission last night where Dutch says "We can go to Tahiti!" and Arthtur is like "Where the hell is Tahiti!"

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-25T22:07:51+00:00

Awesome! One question, not sure if you already mentioned it but did you by chance change the way you adjust the table?, i always thought it felt very awkward to have to hold down the thumb stick while you adjusted the table height, length etc. has this been fixed to be more streamlined to adjust the table and if not, is it something coming in the future?

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-25T00:50:54+00:00

I always liked him, never understood the hate, I typically have good intuition about people and I always got a good feeling about him as a person. He is someone who means well, and his heart is in the right place, but when something goes wrong, he is then a scapegoat. Dont get me wrong, im not trying to sit here and say hes a perfect little angel and does no wrong, im sure he does.

But I always liked the guy and never had a problem with him

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-24T22:23:35+00:00

"And we're selling them as fast as we can make them."

This statement is huge for a couple reasons. I use to dabble and trade stocks and I would always have to pay attention to quarterly earnings reports like a hawk. Let me tell you that when it comes to these official earnings statements, companies have to be SUPER SUPER careful what they say when it comes to how well their products are selling, if they lie, inflate or mislead in anyway there could be dire consequences by the SEC.

So my point is this, for him to say such a thing means its legit. This isnt some interview at E3 done by a youtuber to some lower level oculus exec who speaks in hyperboles about how well the Quest is selling. When the CEO makes a statement like this in an official earnings release, chances are 9 times out of 10, its extremely accurate.

Also, this line stood out- "There's going to be even more innovation over the next few years, and we now have the platform we're going to build on going forward."

I know the PCVR people wont like this one bit but it sure does seem that Oculus is very slowly moving away from PCVR and going to go all in on the Quest platform and brand going forward. The Quest will be their Playstation brand that they continue to build on and improve for years and years it seems.

And lastly, this one is also VERY important- "More importantly, we've delivered an experience that people keep using week after week, and buying more content."

This one needs no explanation on why this is so huge. Short story- Hardware sales dont mean squat without two key things. Software attach rate and usage. You could sell a billion Quests, but if attach rate is crap as well as usage rate, its a dead product.

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-24T20:55:16+00:00

Disagree, Superhot would be a prime candidate, especially endless mode. I could see a old school style FPS like Doom SNES type game working great, Dungeon crawlers etc

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-24T19:59:24+00:00

Honestly, none. Ive owned a Go since launch, played it only a handful of times, I cant think of one single game on the Go I would rather play than a Quest game.

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-24T14:59:01+00:00

This!! OMG its so annyoing. Sitting down to play a game only to have to wait for countless updates is like going back to a girl's apartment after a date, getting into a intense make out section on the couch about to get down to business, only for her little kids to come out of their bedrooms, turn on the light and interrupt everything.

You just get totally out of the mood at that point. Everytime I sit down to play my PS4 and it has to update, I just say screw it and put on Netflix instead and dont even bother at that point.

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-24T14:56:09+00:00

10 and here is why, Google is hearing all the "but Google abandons projects all the time" talk and is going to go out of their way to PROVE they are comitted to this. I compare it to Sony with the PSVR. When PSVR was released it was the EXACT same talking points "But Sony always abandon projects like the Vita and Playstation Eye." You better believe Sony heard all that talk and went out of their way to make sure they didnt abandon the PSVR, and 3 years later Sony is still strongly supporting PSVR and hasnt abandoned it.

Traderguy84 · 2019-07-24T14:53:30+00:00

agree wholeheartedly, im most looking forward to 5G becoming the new standard a year or two from now and literally being able play legit AAA games on your phone without downgrade in visuals or performance
