Defiance Review | The Controller Online

Scott from The Controller Online writes: "Trion Worlds are trying to avoid the typical pattern of crappy movie/TV show tie-in games by being a companion, rather than a derivative. Their latest project is interesting simply because of it’s ambition. Defiance will release in April 2013 as a TV show on the SyFy network, as well as the multi-platform, third person shooter, MMO, we’re about to play here. While the two will be set in different parts of the world, the events of the game are planned to bleed into the show in some manner. Ambitious concepts have back fired on games before though, so how does Defiance hold up? Join us as we head to the Bay Area to find out"

I regret buying it, just boring..

Th3 Chr0nic4029d ago

how far have you gotten? i just started finding new enmies and they are much more of a challenge than the first enemies. as well as the new types of arkfalls with robots and stuff its getting really crazy the further south i go. im loving the game and cant wait for the tv show

rdgneoz34029d ago

How's ammo? Most of the complaints I've heard besides repetitive missions tends to be running out of ammo pretty easily.

ExPresident4029d ago

@ rdgneoz3

In the BETA ammo was very hard to find. Not the case in the game. The boxes are everywhere.

Th3 Chr0nic4029d ago

like expres said the ammo refill boxes are everywhere. a lot of people just arent looking for them. ive seen one guy run right past 2 boxes and have to climb a mountain to get to the one he thought was the only one around. hell they are even on the minimap easy to see.

antz11044029d ago

Lol, theres ammo everywhere. Theres even a perk that regens some in the survivor class.

Ammo is a problem, as a machine gunner I burn through 575 rounds in 1 1/2 minutes. Its a pain in the butt to leave the action and run to an ammo box. Other than that its a fun game. I wish people could vehicle share, and add gunner seats!

Th3 Chr0nic4029d ago

the cererbus vehicles are supposed to have gunner seats i beleive. plus the yare tweaking the game often and pacthing, im sure they will have this game on point quickly. all the probems ive seen so far have been pretty minor and nothing that cant be fixed

I had a good time with the original Defiance years back, honestly.

Silly gameAr1148d ago

Me too. I remember putting a lot of hours into it before it went free to play. After, it went f2p, I didn't play it near as much, but it makes me nostalgic.

darthv721148d ago

I liked the show and picked up a sealed collectors edition of the 360 game for $5 at a thrift store a couple years ago.

isarai1148d ago

It had a good run honestly, way better than it had any business being, especially for it to be part of a tv series

boing11148d ago

Yeah, I'm surprised it went for so long too. Tried the game but didn't click for me. I liked the TV series, though.

isarai1148d ago

I gave it about a dozen hours, was fun even tho MMOs aren't my thing. But to even keep me around that long is impressive lol

psynetik1231148d ago

Paid $11 for this POS way back and I still felt ripped off

Usually pro has the higher or more stable fps. Hopefully that trend doesn’t happen again this game.

thrust2175d ago

Xbox X a lot more powerful allways the better 3rd party games, The truth hurts 👍

bluefox7552175d ago

@thrust Yeah, the newer, more expensive hardware seems to play games a little better. Shocking, right? Personally, I like 60fps on most games, so I go for the best version, on PC, not X.

RobLoPR2175d ago

@bluefox... so PC is cheaper than Xbox One X?

rdgneoz32175d ago

"allways the better 3rd party games"

Because it has no good first party games since they all get delayed or canned?

Realms2175d ago

@ thrust

No the truth is that a good PC runs circles around the X but some of you constantly try to make it seem like the X is better than PC wrong.

@ RobLoPR

You gotta love the goal posting the argument isn't about price point the argument is where you can get the best performance and the answer is PC. MS fanboys love taunting the power card the only problem is that a good PC can and always will outperform consoles.

iplay1up22175d ago

That is not true. Time and time again the X has been the best platform for 3rd party games. Usually FPS on the X are higher too. Just look at Assassins Creed Origins X compared to Pro Digital Foundry has.

Next Gen it wont matter. I just don't know what Sony and Microsoft are planning for next gen. This is the first MAJOR mid gen upgrade for a console. I just paid $499 for Xbox One X, and Pro is $399. If next gen starts in 2019. What kind of power will the consoles have? What price?BTW, not only does the X have more power than pro, but also a 4K BluRay player. Which Pro doesn't have. That is what makes the X $100 more than pro.

Oh we're talking hardware, because I was going to list some other differences.

nowitzki20042175d ago

I seen an article in gameinformer that MS will be releasing an Xbox One F. $899 with 8% increase over Xbox One X. First time I seen or heard anything about it. Is it true or was it a joke?

AnubisG2175d ago

Never heard of that. Most likely a joke.

nowitzki20042175d ago (Edited 2175d ago )

I didnt have time to read through it, but I really wouldnt be surprised so did not know how to take it lol.

I think its May 2018 issue.. Spiderman on cover.

slavish02175d ago

this is a last gen game it should be 4k60

PS3_Noob2175d ago (Edited 2175d ago )

If X could do 60fps compared to Pro 30fps may be it would matter more. Otherwise both can do well over 1080P which is more than enough. Games is what matters most.
