looks really good!

Wish this was a mission based single player game :/

[CBaoth]

there's enough amigo. Us co-op fans need some love too. First game was bonkers and looks improved in every way

[northpaws]

Disagree, badly need a good co-op game to play with my friends. I have enough single player games on my backlog, still playing Cyberpunk 2077, and then Baldur's Gate 3 next, maybe Hogwart Legacy afterward, still haven't played Dead Space and RE4 Remake...

But for co-op, me and 3 of my friends have been jumping from games to games but nothing stick, went back to Legends a few times to do the Story of Iyo story mode, and played some Chivarlry 2, badly need a good co-op game to play next.

What I meant was I wish it was a structured campaign that could be played single player or co-op. To my understanding the first one was like a procedurally generated battle mode with some objectives thrown in. I was hoping something more like Lost planet.

Nice spec sheet. Again the GTX 1050 is shown some love. This basically means that nearly everyone can run it. It is also very cheap coming in at 39.99. This should help promote a health userbase. There is also 59.99 combo that includes a set of DLC including something called ‘Will of the People’ Cape... lol But yeah, I think the low entry price and combo is better than the FP2 model because the game can still support itself without tons of pay to win MTX... while still having a cheap entry point (admittedly cheaper than PS5 because it doesn't have a plus sub.)

That 100gb ssd is steep imo. I have a 6800xt and 7800x3d cpu so I didn't expect to run into problems.

[Rimeskeem]

You have a $500 GPU and a $400 CPU and didn't get a $100 dollar 2tb SSD? Or do you just have a lot of games installed? I have around 40 games installed on my SSD and still have 400GB left.

That's on you.

[phoenixwing]

Rime I have a lot of games installed only a 1tb ssd and a bunch of hdds

[ZycoFox]

1080p at 30fps is quite rough by today's standards but yeah if you can't afford to pay more for a decent GPU and CPU to keep the frames high then it's better than nothing I guess..

[Rimeskeem]

You could build a $300 PC with used parts to run this game. at 1080p 60fps

[phoenixwing]

My computer easily meets performance markers but the extra 100gb of ssd is tough I'll have to beat a game or two in preparation. Or delete one

[Sephiroushin]

storage is super cheap now a days

[InUrFoxHole]

Pc? I thought this was a ps exclusive? Guess I'll be playing on pc

[repsahj]

This will be awesome!

[Rimeskeem]

It's also $40 MSRP which is nice.
