Destiny looks to be an Evolutionary Leap in the FPS genre.
THIS is the holy grail of gaming.
I plan on pre-ordering the very first day that option becomes available (regardless of price.)
^Some of those mentioned above and a few others off the top of my head:
The Thing
Peter Jackson's King Kong
The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct (not based off a movie, but still a tie-in)
Watchmen: The End Is Nigh
Dead Rising (loosely based off Romero's Dawn of the Dead)
Goldeneye
This is news?
I suppose I am glad they released these screenshots after all. At least now I know what the game looks like.
Agreed.
EVERY other facet of society uses sex to sell. This is no different.
Off topic: that brunette can hamstring me anytime.
Doom already has Rift support.
In the F2P model there has to be a way for the developer/publisher to recoup the costs of actually developing/promoting the game.
MicroTransactions which offer only simple cosmetic changes will be purchased by only a small percentage of players, so the revenue isn't coming from there.
No, the real incentive to spend moneycomes from in-game items or services that give the player a clear advantage. More powerful armor/weapons or XP boosters do just that.
Or ...
"... it won't be a pay to win scenario." And you believe them?
You really don't think they will "nickel and dime" players when they're ALREADY doing it by charging people just for early access?! It's F2P, why is there even a cost associated with it?
The whole contradiction is absurd.
I'm disappointed.
Yet ANOTHER Free-for-All, Kill-on-Sight Survival MMO.
For all his talk about taking the genre to the next level...I just don't see it. It doesn't do anything that DayZ and Rust don't do already. In fact, I have 1/2 dozen games just like this already installed on my PC.
The only thing that will differentiate this title will be the fact that it's the only one of it's kind on consoles.
They must limit the PvP. We've seen this gameplay in EVERY other survival horror MMO. And while it is rewarding in it's own way, I'd still like to see this type of game with a focus on co-operation and a fostering of socialization.
Why do you feel the need to limit other peoples options (and enjoyment)?
If you don't enjoy the zombie scene, fine...move on to something else and leave the zombies to the rest of us.
ALL free to play ARE pay to win since the most important features are locked out. Those features are usually the ones that, while absent, hinder your progression.
Example, your friend buys into the subscription, but you opt out. He is now leveling at a rate twice as fast as you and subsequently is leaving you behind, since you can no longer group together. In this scenario, those paying the sub will reach their goals first. They Win.
Forcing you to pay the s...
They should concentrate efforts to optimize the PC version first. The framerate makes the game unplayable with VR enabled.
Dedicated servers are great from a technical viewpoint, but their drawback is apparent.
Peer 2 peer gaming is far from ideal, but at least we can enjoy the game much longer.
Why not options for both? It's not that difficult to implement during development.
"ANYTHING they don't give you concrete details on is usually because they dont want bad PR."
Perhaps in some cases, but not all. It's often simply a PR tactic used to pique your interest.
Rockstar games are a perfect example of this.
For the amount of time their games are in development we usually know very little about them, except what they want us to know. I can't say how they always manage it (perhaps on pain of death or dism...
The best loading screens are found in "How to Survive."
During the process the game asks concurrent multiple choice questions pertaining to gameplay elements. Each right answer gives your character actual XP.
You become so obsessed with answering as many as you can during the short amount of time given that you effectively forget about the loading process entirely.
You talk about people using reason, then make this comment:
"2 billion injected in the hands of the best vr team..."
Oculus didn't get 2BN dollars in funding. The company was sold for that price. That money/FB stock now belongs to the previous owners/investors.
And you can be sure they won't dump it back into the Oculus development they NO LONGER own.
Deleted. Double Post
The VR industry. Yes.
VR gaming? No.
If you're a Titan use this strategy:
1. Equip your flashbang to stun him
2. Get behind him so he's facing the ledge
3. Use your super OR rockets to send him over the edge
4. Loot the chests (if any spawned) AND don't forget to collect the Dead Ghost
5. Do this enough times and a Hallowed Ogre will spawn (watch out for the purple beam that shoots from his eyes)
