Question
cinder vessel
Response
winter yew
Why is Anthem using a six week old build to showcase what it can do in the Demo?
teal mason
they made Golden Gun good? what alternate dimension is this
winter yew
Isn’t that strange? Most of the issues people have with the game are supposedly coming from the fact the demo is outdated. People want to run in the hub world, they can do so in the full game build. People would like a few superior PC controls, they are running a six week old build (with changes available in the final version). That doesn’t make any sense. A Demo should be a demonstration of a section of the full game should it not? This feels like beta testing
teal mason
also the 6-week old build may provide easier access to that feature for the devs
also if GG returns a bullet on kill then does the 6 shooter still exist
winter yew
I wish BioWare the best but I think the most anyone is getting out of this is the developers knowing the servers are probably gonna die at launch (which is totally fine and obviously one of the intentions). I just feel bad for all who preordered to get early access to the Demo because most of them probably can’t even load in or play with some of the features that make the game due to how botched this build might be.
When I can play it, I also think there’s sound missing in some areas. Can’t tell if that’s a bug or not.
brisk merlin
its only six shooter that adds another bullet with kills
rigid haven
I destroy you

It ends when you fire the first bullet @teal mason

Idk why it’s not showing the trailer thumbnail
Oh there it is
I’ve had the mobile release of this since it came out,it’s a premium game with zero dlc, it’s a pretty straightforward story-driven space combat game, think like Galaxy on Fire or Freelancer, and while doesn’t look this pretty on mobile, I’m glad they upped it for the console/pc release. https://gamingbolt.com/subdivision-infinity-dx-interview-customization-locations-new-content-and-more

Do you get to land the plane Top Gun NES style
idle saffron
Yep, you do landings and takeoffs @teal mason
Nah, mid air refueling is cake @meager panther
teal mason
But is it Top Gun NES style tho
Ain't nothing better than crashing into the sea after a series of "UP! UP! DOWN! DOWN! SPEED UP! SPEED DOWN! LEFT!"
teal mason
N I C E
teal mason
Now I only need voice-activated shooting and eye tracking aim
idle saffron
Although - I haven't gotten to land on a carrier in the game 😦
teal mason
So I can say "Fuck" to shoot down a plane
meager panther
Oh it's easy for you
For me it was very difficult lol
Oh and fuck carrier landinga
Miss the catching rooe
idle saffron
Lol
idle saffron
Nah, take back off
meager panther
Are there save points?
idle saffron
Throttle up and hope
meager panther
Like before landing
idle saffron
There are checkpoints
meager panther
Oh nice
idle saffron
You can skip landings and takeoffs and midair refueling if you want to
idle saffron
I dont skip them , I like doing them - but it is handy for those that don't
Also all cut scenes are skippable
Basically, you can skip everything but shooting the enemy

@rigid haven @brisk merlin no premium, first month is free
the graphics are bad because its all one server with no loading screens, they can't be too complex
also everything is built with complex voxels, further adding to the server load
rigid haven
Interesting
peak whale
but the devs used to work for companies such as apple and robotics companies
new server tech
all one server
its also in total alpha, graphics are bound to improve
devs show off their tech and stuff tho and they have funding through investors as well as kickstarter, its a legit thing

How many different aircraft can you fly?
teal mason
I'm still just playing Witcher 3 
reef storm
Ooh. That's not bad
meager panther
Do you have that solar powered aircraft?
idle saffron
Maybe that's the last unlock
I know they give you another plane to buy at the end of the campaign
meager panther
Wait let me find that
idle saffron
What's it called?
Ok
The aircraft you buy are on what they call the aircraft tree - it has many branches, so you pick which way you want to go - everything is saved though, so you can go back down another branch without losing anything from the others
reef storm
That's cool
idle saffron
I've made like 5m from the normal campaign - which was enough to get me to the end of one of the branches, and buy the su57, which is a beast

Basically the Sniper Elite series.

So how's the fps? @idle saffron
Because there are apparently reports of poor fps on base consoles already
idle saffron
I'd guesstimate at least 45 FPS - it's silky smooth, no drops
I'm running on the 1x
Even when you have 40 craft in the air with missles flying, it is smooooth
idle saffron
The base models are losing traction with all the new games
Although SpiderMan was good on the base ps4
meager panther
Hmmm
full pivot
Yeah I still need to get a ps4 pro
meager panther
Ps5 is coming out next year
full pivot
Just can't find the motivation for just 1 or 2 games
full pivot
I wouldn't get the base ps4 when the on my game I wanted it for was bloodborne
And I love bloodborne
meager panther
Wait a year and get ps5
idle saffron
No joke
full pivot
Cant do ps5 prolly cuz it wont backwards most likely
idle saffron
Yes
full pivot
Just like how no ps3 games run on ps4
idle saffron
But the option was upgrading my 10+ year old comp, and a ps4
Ps4 was the easier option
meager panther
Hmmmm makes sense then
idle saffron
I was tempted, and seeing all the mods adds to that
full pivot
And my most played ps3 games arent even on ps4 to this day
idle saffron
One of mine made it - SotC
full pivot
LBP1 and 2 never made it 😭
idle saffron
😢
full pivot
Those are some of the reasons I don't keep up on consoles
full pivot
Granted it takes some special software; and Nintendo has been better about this lately; I can still play games from DOS on my PC but most consoles ignore past games
Of course there was that one line of ps3 that did both ps2 and ps1
idle saffron
They are breaking that tradition though, lots of backwards compatible, and downloading of older games now
full pivot
Ps4 wasn't very good at it so hopefully they go back to that ps3 idea

I have a virtual boy somewhere in my attic

No, their version of earth - no real nations
meager panther
Hmmm
full pivot
You mean the cool stuff from real world is there with cooler not real stuff on top of it?
idle saffron
Yes
full pivot
I can get behind that
idle saffron
It's probably less of a pr nightmare for me to bomb a fake city, rather than like Moscow or something
meager panther
Even had a Mission to defend a rocket launch at Florida
full pivot
Problem with realism is it often becomes an aesthetic lie
idle saffron
Horizons had Dubai, Miami, Moscow
full pivot
Because if it were realistic, the difficulty would be ramped up significantly
full pivot
Good example is CoD vs Arma
idle saffron
The flying is realistic, but the setting and conflict is not
full pivot
You mean like limited fuel and stuff?
I like the removal of some things like that that just become tedious in a game
meager panther
There are settings for that
full pivot
Like how annoying crash damage can actually be in a racing game 
meager panther
I never play realistic mode
It limits you to like 32 missiles
And a cannon
On a jet
In a level with 100+ opponents
No one can win that way
full pivot
I could cosplay as Tom Cruise from Top Gun because I'm also short
Oohh! Does ace combat have an F15? 
idle saffron
Yes, and variants
full pivot
Yeyy
idle saffron
No fuel costs
full pivot
I'm literally playing the song on my first mission
idle saffron
Refueling if needed is part of the in between missions stuff, like landings
Can skip doing that if you would like
full pivot
Nevah!
idle saffron
And for the longer missions, you have an fob to return to to repair and refuel
meager panther
I only can't land.other parts I can ace it
full pivot

On flight simulators (the Microsoft one) I used to go on 4+ hour realistic flights, except I crash the thing

Landing is graceful

It either overshoots the runaway, is misaligned by a few degrees and smashed into a airport building
full pivot
Gotta make the trap

I messed up one landing so far - my first carrier landing
full pivot
I tried it a bunch in Arma 3 and failed a ton
I can fly a heli just fine though
Driving I'm better at just racing
idle saffron
I do forward loops in helicopters, that's amusing
full pivot
Is it like Battlefield 2 where ppl could do aeliron rolls like star fox in helicopters
Idk spelling on that shit
idle saffron
Arma 2 was, don't know about 3
idle saffron
Lol
full pivot
Ive always loved fighter jets its been a while since I got to play a game with them
idle saffron
Don't get this game for any reason besides the jets and combat
Story is typical ace combat cheese
Oh wait - I should call it typical Bandai-Namco
Geniuses behind the soul caliber stories
full pivot
Tbh I dont really care a ton about stories
idle saffron
Good, you won't get a good one here - but the combat more than makes up for it
Has multiplayer as well
full pivot
If I do its a game clearly centered on it like Soma
idle saffron
Hellblade
full pivot
Yes
meager panther
It's usually go there,defend the flight, defend the refinery etc type of missions right?
full pivot
And in that case I care less about gameplay
idle saffron
No, it's 80% attack
full pivot
Remember DOOM's story? Exactly
idle saffron
With some flight support
Your character is a badass, they don't waste him much on defending things
meager panther
Oh
full pivot
Besides no one wants to play the CAP game
meager panther
Does it have over the sea missions? Attacking carri rs and stuff
full pivot

idle saffron
There is one defend mission, and a couple times you escort people - the rest is more like we are desperate, please save us
full pivot
Here fly this patrol for 13 hours; nothing will happen yay

There aren't any naval only focused missions, but there are several times where fleets are part of the skirmish
full pivot
Anytime I find photo mode in a game I'm like 'gleam can play this'
Found it in Forza 4 yesterday
idle saffron
Sadly, this game does not have a photo mode
What it does have is a replay of the entire mission at the end
You can switch views and slow or speed up playback
😢Can't pause it though
idle saffron
Lol, yep
full pivot
Its a photo mode but live
idle saffron
If I could ditch all the hud elements, that would make it much easier to grab during play
But this isn't terrible, just not convenient
full pivot
Well in Elite I almost burned up between 3 stars trying to take a photo cuz its in real time
idle saffron
Lol

When I closed photo mode I finally heard all the alarms

@winter yew yes Xenochron X is for now. Playing it though, it doesn't seem to use the gamepad much, so I'd love to see it ported at some point

i wanted to play it so maybe if it gets ported to Switch (when I get one) i'll try it
I have Xenoblade Chronicles on my 3DS, I can't remember where I'm at right now lol.. some floating island things..

Best part of X is that you can play it without having finished Chronicles 1 & 2
It probably has some nods to 1, but otherwise narratively is its own thing so far as I can tell

I remember similar mission
You had to fly through a tunnel without crashing
Funnily
It was the last mission
And I could not complete it
idle saffron
Oh, I didn't have to fly through that, just wanted to
idle saffron
So this ace combat has hidden aces in each level (like usual) but this time you have to do something specific to get them to show. For this level it was flying through that tunnel

I think ARK might just be the worst game I've ever played.
austere lance
Excuse
Wait, are you playing it online @low wedge
Don't touch the online, do a private server or singleplayer
low wedge
Was playing in a private game with a friend. It's just a bad game so far, I'm amazed it's even popular and I usually love survival games. We've had to keep changing settings to balance things because the vanilla settings are horribly unbalanced but it's still hard to play.
low wedge
Then some giant dino spawned in the supposedly safe spawn area and broke the entire base and killed every tamed dinosaur and then spawn camped us repeatedly, like, just no, that's not fun. If the game wants to mess me up for daring to explore and venture out then sure but we were just chilling and trying to learn basic stuff and play it safe at the spawn.
austere lance
low wedge
Done with it for today. We'll try again another time when we're feeling less salty.
austere lance
Use those settings or close to them and stay in the the first easy spawn area at the beach with the rocks
austere lance
The first easy spawn place at the top of the spawn list is the only actual easy one

whatever works for you though
low wedge
I didn't know we could DM ourselves
austere lance
Those setting I gave you basically turn it into slightly harder Minecraft survival mode, lol.
Much better to learn on
low wedge
I'll give them a shot but rn I just hate it and that stupid giant homewrecking dino especially
austere lance
Cuts down on sooooo much grind
Wait, where was your base? That sounds like the exact same thing that happened to me my first time
austere lance
All the "easy" areas are on a beach, only the first one is actually safe and not full of bullshit tho
low wedge
Pretty sure we built riiiight where we started 🤷
austere lance
I'm a solid 30 hours in and the worst dino I've seen is a brontosaurus, lol. Definitely safer
Whereas in the other easy area a fucking t rex spawned and murdered my base
low wedge
I'm not sure what it was but it was brutal
austere lance
The spawn place I recommended is great, it's as far south as you can go on a rocky tail part of the map with no areas big enough to spawn any bullshit dinos
low wedge
I'll look into that, thanks
Not giving up on the game just yet, will give it more of a chance but for today... screw ARK.
austere lance
I was at it long enough to work my way up to crafting guns, lol
Not a rex or anything evil in sight
I found mean bitches when I flew inland on my pterodactyl, but they were hella far away 😄
Also, if you're scared of large predators just build a base next to some Triceratops. They don't do much if you're nice to em and they'll agro on angry shit like crocodiles. Basically guard dogs you don't have to tame xD
low wedge
I'm only bothered about the big ones who just come along and wreck the entire base and every creature in it just because they can, not my idea of fun really.
Not too fussed about crocs and stuff.
austere lance
Yeah I haven't seen any big bois besides a brontosaurus or two, they're passive unless you smack em tho
low wedge
Nah this guy was hostile by default. I can't remember his species dang it.
austere lance
Yeah fuck those
The good south beach doesn't spawn any predators larger than a croc, luckily
low wedge
Honestly I think he spawned across from us then just slowly wandered over through the shallow waters
austere lance
I got far enough on The Island that I moved my character and a dino to the Ragnarok map, lol. Shit's sketchier there 😄
low wedge
The game has so many issues so far though like the UI which is hilariously bad but it kind of has some good things going for it too. We'll see how it goes next time I play.
It's one of those things where I really wanna like it but it's trying so hard to make me hate it. 😂
low wedge
It's fairly big. The worst part is the settings. They just added a slider for literally every value that exists that can be tuned. People probably think well great we can customise every aspect that's wonderful but it feels more like they tried and tried and failed to balance their own game so they just gave us a million settings "good luck balancing the game using these 500 sliders, we gave up trying"
meager panther
Oh I know
I tried playing it about 2 years ago
Haven't played it ever since
It took 15 mins to load

also there are still totally a bunch of cool things only done on the Switch versions of some of the games that have since been ported
like Lego City Undercover & Zombi U (both of which I've yet to pick up because of silly reasons)
austere lance
Zombi was meh
cinder vessel
what'd ya play it on tho
austere lance
Xbox. Gameplay loop is meh
cinder vessel
ah yeah see there's a slight bit of the issue, altho i don't think they changed that all that much
austere lance
They changed the inventory and map and controls
cinder vessel
a lot of the more interesting stuff was done through the gamepad from what i gather, albeit the game's still meh overall
but at this point you can pick it up for like $5 soooo
austere lance
I got it free with Gold, lol
cinder vessel
then u really can't complain too much, lol
austere lance
Me paying for a game doesn't determine the quality, I got MGS V free with Gold too and loved it 😄
cinder vessel
still tho, ya can complain a fuckton more if u had to throw a bunch of cash at it, lol
remember, the more you pay, the more you can justifiably shout at paid for thing
cinder vessel
...fuck, i just remembered that in typical wtf Nintendo fashion, you can pick up some N64 titles on the Wii U eShop
austere lance
F76 just keeps digging deeper and deeper 😄

why is nintendo so awkward with data transfers 😩
it makes me stupid anxious to think about it because it seems so easy to fuck up
rigid haven
I've used a data transfer once back on 3DS
And I do remember being afraid that the link would go down at any moment
cinder vessel
i'm thinking about trying to transfer my wii saves to the wii u, so that i don't have to deal with the old av cable thingum as much & so i can do an easy swap between wii & wii u games on the same console, buuut hrrm
just a lil' iffy on the whole process since it's a one-way trip deal

yo we all stopped playing minecraft for no reason
2019 should be the time we start again
I already found a mature server with a unique survival gamemode
glass tartan
i stopped playing late last year because i'm not engaged with the rp i did through it anymore
glass tartan
i've played it off and on ever since it was not THE most popular game
rigid haven
Minecraft has always been one of the most popular games
meager panther
It is still played tho

Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon and Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy are free with Gold in February 😍

i looked at their chart for the demo weekend thing and i'm still lost, lmao
but if memory serves from past discussions here i think it's all just hey u need to have paid somethin' somethin' to get access
low wedge
Good games that have solid online co-op campaigns but preferably not pew pew pew nor open world survival, kind of need a break from those, preferably available on PS4, go go go.
cinder vessel
hmm, brothers: a tale of two sons if you've not already played it?
teal mason
Lovers in a Dangerous Space Time
low wedge
Oh yes that one is on my list
cinder vessel
if you want something to poke fun at, A Way Out maybe, lol
teal mason
lmao
rigid haven
Lovers is pew pew
low wedge
True but
teal mason
ok Overcook 2
low wedge
Some pew pew is allowed, or even encouraged
So long as it doesn't turn into a full on firefight up in here
cinder vessel
if you want something experimental & a little weird, Hidden Agenda's out there
teal mason
that makes you pew pew your friends irl
cinder vessel
Overcooked 2's a good one, yeah
low wedge
Looked too stressful 😰
teal mason
yeah makes you pew pew yourself at the end
low wedge
Overcooked
cinder vessel
ah thought so
teal mason
N++
low wedge
Overcooked is like my actual exact experience every time I set foot in my kitchen even when cooking for one
teal mason
you get pew pewed
low wedge
I miss back when pretty much all campaigns had co-op
I forgot to add the key word "chilled" to my request 😅
Something chilled/relaxed

@cinder vessel Demo this weekend is open
cinder vessel
are you suuuure
rigid haven
1-4 feb GMT is open, after that no more free anthem
There's a playtest on the 15th, I think, but that's pretty much early access to the full game, and only for 15 hours
and only if you get that weird Origin access thingy
brisk merlin
its full game with premier
I mean unlimited time with premier
and basic is 10 hours
crisp sparrow
I just had peak warframe experience
I asked in game chat how do I get a control module and next thing I know I'm playing with 3 absolute gods killing hordes of absolute god minions with tentacles flying around and music balls and emotes
cinder vessel
so, basically, being taken on a guided tour
winter yew
have 3 maxed prime volts on your tteam and then tell me about having a blast
you'll become the flash
everyone will
austere lance
@cinder vessel Yes I'm sure, lol. Last weekend was the VIP demo and this weekend is the open one
https://www.dualshockers.com/gamestop-germany-fallout-76-for-free/ @A Sound S☯ul lmao

Ooo, sweet
cinder vessel
oof

too bad Zenimax is private so they don't need to release annual reports

Finally finished Subnautica and got the platinum trophy, now I can get back to focusing on NMS

i still need to finish lol
austere lance

cinder vessel
just make free to play, mmkay
basically nobody complains as much when there are microtransactions and the game is free to play, especially when they don't give gameplay advantages
WarFrame says hi
echo hill
hahahaha
austere lance
LOL
echo hill
i feel like anthem is just trying to be a AAA WarFrame
austere lance
Boi 😤
cinder vessel
and yet WarFrame already has a lot of the AAA visual quality to it...?
so like...
wat
austere lance
They're not remotely the same, lol
echo hill
are they not?
cinder vessel
nah, one has flight
austere lance
Anthem is like Diablo+Iron Man
austere lance
Play the open demo tomorrow and find out @echo hill
cinder vessel
i keep forgetting tomorrow is the start of the weekend
austere lance
9 AM PST tomorrow
austere lance
Iron Man+Diablo tho
cinder vessel
oh right since Dreams NDA lifted i can talk about it i guess?
echo hill
they had an nda for the beta?
cinder vessel
yeah
echo hill
lol wtf
cinder vessel
it's a proper beta, as compared to HEY WE'RE A "BETA" BUT WE ALL KNOW THIS IS A DEMO
cinder vessel
like the subtitles aren't quite synced right, there's still some rough edges, & they're asking for a bunch of feedback on it all
echo hill
gotcha
cinder vessel
Well it was for the first few weeks, but a few days ago they lifted the NDA so people could show off what they've made without dealing with, "hey u violated NDA monster"
which was dumb as hell because the tools are stable enough to make some cool shit if you have the time
cinder vessel
I've been taking forever to get into Dreams because it's a lot like LittleBigPlanet if you're the creative sort, which means: lots & lots of going through the tutorials
echo hill
hahaha yeah
cinder vessel
I haven't really surfed through many of the Dreams others have made, should maybe do that, lol
Someone basically made a guitar hero-esque game
echo hill
oh damn
cinder vessel
And I'm not sure whether it was me or the game, but it felt like there might have been a slight delay in the input being read, so until you got the beat down you'd fuck up a bunch
But that's kinda rhythm games in a nutshell?
echo hill
fs
man all i wanna do is play beat saber but i know that if i do im going to hurt myself
cinder vessel
I'm not sure what I want to play 😮
Like I think I want to play something...But I can't think of which game would feel like I was even getting somewhere fast in & isn't something I've already played (like Spyro)
I want to revisit Kingdom Hearts but I know it's such a sloooow start
echo hill
you should try out RE7
cinder vessel
i have RE7, just haven't gotten around to it, lol
echo hill
really really fun game
echo hill
i wanna try RE2 but i cant justify the price
cinder vessel
Yeah, I'm thinking I may pick that up when it's either $40 or $20
echo hill
yeah same
cinder vessel
It's made me want to pick up the original more, tbh
echo hill
or ill pick it up when it drops denuvo 😉
cinder vessel
oh fuck me i almost forgot they pulled that shit on PC
I'd only ever bothered to think of it on console anyway so 🤷
cinder vessel
I hardly ever think of Japanese devs' work on PC due to dumb stunts like that
echo hill
haha
cinder vessel
lots of ppl happy to see it, & i would be if they'd loosen up some more
echo hill
what even does denuvo do that people hate so much?
cinder vessel
honestly i almost feel bad for them because i feel like Denuvo is taking advantage of the older higher ups
echo hill
all i know is that it makes games harder to crack
cinder vessel
Denuvo is just extra shit you never asked for that might put an expiration date on your games
echo hill
yikes
cinder vessel
Given, if the publishers aren't assholes, if Denuvo goes under they'd remove that shit, but publishers aren't known for being the best about that kind of thing
echo hill
yeah
cinder vessel
So i mean if you don't care about being able to revisit your games down the line, i guess whatever you don't have anything to worry about, but i mean i still go back to old Coleco & Sega games from time to time soooo
echo hill
yeah i enjoy throwing back sometimes

@idle saffron it depends on when I get home and if I wanna sleep a ton today
I could still play it and settle for less sleep

So the cops are now after me just because I honked my horn at the guy at the airport security gate to open it up a little faster so I can get to my private hanger (GTA V).

I thought the first one was funny - Americans have gotten out of control with taking offense at things
idle saffron
Oh, I can only speak for this country - worldwide thing huh?
full pivot
People need to learn that taking something negative and feeding off that energy doesn't do any good
You have to face it with the opposite sometimes
Its not wrong its just a different philosophy
And actually important sometimes
idle saffron
If you get through life and your only problems are being offended by something - you have it easy - there is much more to worry about than hurt feelings
low wedge
Joking about bad things is mostly just a coping mechanism and a valid one imo
full pivot
I'm just saying making light of bad things is sometimes therapeutic
low wedge
So long as you do it in the right place and at the right time
full pivot
But I can also see why people are tired of it
low wedge
Otherwise sure it can be offensive
idle saffron
My point is, I don't care if it's offensive, if it's not actually hurting someone
