TIM WHITE WRITES: "Multiplayer or single player? Developers, you can do both, just not willy-nilly."
I hate when I see single player games and see people begging for multi-player. Jeez guys it don't need to be on every game. Latest one I seen was atomic heart.
Multiplayer or even co-op
If it was always a single player game then that's how it is
It's a trend that never really went away. For me multiplayer in a primarily SP focused game was an excuse for DLC. Then there's the mentality gamers had that adding multiplayer makes a game worth the price, otherwise it should be half price for half a game. A way of thinking devs reassured when they started adding multiplayer to their sequels. We see the same with multiplayer focused games getting SP in their sequels.
Tbh multilayer now is a way to add live service and mtx elements, very rarely does it come of well.
What single players game used to be in a lot of cases now require 3 other people for keeping to really enjoy it and I hate having to rely on others to get the maximum from a game.
Sp should be sp, if devs want to add a separate multi mode then that's fine with me, the legends addition to ghost of tshushima was fricking sick but totally separate to the main game. Sick of co op too.
I remember when certain single player games had them as included optional modes that was played on the couch. Had brilliant times with Syphon Filter and Golden Eye. Me and my bro used to used to fight over who would play as Gabe even though it was technically just a skin. Good times.
CANT WAIT FOR THIS. it looks amazing cant wait to play it. bet ill have to wait for a q4 release
I'm really hoping this game pushes the PS4 with those lush graphics and effects! 1080P and AA and we have a winner!
The only lush thing XBONE is getting is exclusive DLC...Lol M$ has to make it up somewhere, right?
this is the first game I've seen that completely feel nextgen, from inside and outside
I really have high hopes for this game. The developers seem to have a lot of ambition for this project. Visually & thematically the game has it all.
; )
I remember back when I was at E3, you had to have a special Exihbitor Badge to watch The Division from close doors. I was able to watch most games behind close doors, as a Game Design Student with an Exihbit Badge, but not as special(you can get on for free if ur a Game Design Student, GameStop Manager, or anybody working in the Game Industry or films). 2 journalist came up and told me a few things about this game like the graphics, realistic physic, and how it's different than any Tom Clancy game anybody has ever seen before. The surprising thing is that this game was not even on my radar to look at for E3, so I had no clue of its existence. There was temporary no media cover for it at the time. It was really top secret with only the Logo to see in the booth. Meh. I eventually saw footage of the game on my laptop in a hotel not too far from E3, the next day. I was super hype for this game ever seen then. Getting it for Xbox One day one!
