they talked abou the collaboration
shown new footage of the secret clan
showed the different areas
inside clan homes
we get to see the other two region
there were new shots of clouded forest which was very intreguing
it is the one in the demo
i meant the thirs area
That and the clouded forest will probably be my favorite areas
yeah we saw that
I love the mysterious vibe of the clouded forest
the upper plains looked sick!
Youāre good!
the trees and the different rock formations
yea same looks unique
i saw the biolumenecene on the ikran again... chills! I just want to bond with my Ikran!
I bet you Na'vi feel the same way before they get to take the test lol
this feels like a leak but isnt
wait since 20 is max level you cant unlock everything
maybe you can earn skill points seperate from leveling up
tru
Maybe
That or it is to help with replay value/you canāt be overpowered
Forces you to think more about what youāre putting into each spec
maybe
oh 100%....I hope if practiced flying can be smooth! Low level flying through trees without hitting a branch? challenge accepted
Let me know how it goes for you because it will not go too well for me

I loveeddd flying in Horizon Forbidden West! AFoP looks even better so im excited
i hope the flying is as satisfying as it looksš¤©
how far into the game do you think we get our Ikran?
The flying looks really smooth in FoP
it really does! I am so excited to try it out
the reviewers that played the demos said they were abt 2 hours into the story so prolly around there we get ikrans
the map design is pretty cool
indeed it is
the demo started at 26% of story
Thank you!
well with custimization factored in it might take me longer hahah
š
same lmao
so maybe in the first night i'll finish the customization and prologue
im not looking at anymore spoilers
LMAOOO
we are too close hahah
i cant contain my excitementā¦!!!
you say that every time
maybe at midnight we do custimization and thats it lol
shhhhh dont call me out hahaha
customizing til the sun comes up
donāt š
im def doing an all nighter wooo !!
YAAASS ALLNIGHTER TEAM š¤
YAASSSš¤
LOL
work from home team š¤
your a bad influence lolol 
š¤š¤
idk what ur talking about š¤

you know dang well im gonna be up until 4am hahahaha
I wont be able to resist
the sleep will take me out
Me speedrunning it to the rookery
hahahahah
SAME
i say i wonāt
need my ikran
but i know damn well i will
im going to try not to is all i can say lol
but being on the harder difficulty will hopefully make me slow down
I most definitely will
i say i will however ill prolly end up getting lost in the world exploration and forget abt going to get my ikran
I feel like if you are on exploration mode it would def make it easier without being given the direction to go
iām just trying to get to my zeswa clan
im def gonna be using exploration mode , i had having a bunch of stuff constantly on screen
yeah that is a nice benifit as well!
iāve made up my decision iām only using naāvi weapons!!
same
i love using bows in games so it was an easy choiceš
i noticed they didn't show/mention so'lek or the resistance at all which makes me think that part is more story heavy
Probably
yeah it is
Horizon weaponry was so fun! Maybe I should play that to pass the time
ive been playing like 3 different games to pass the timešš
iāve just been playin sims š
on my 11th generation
ive been playing lethal company , bg3 , and vagante š
Gotta a royal legacy going on there
I have just not had much intrest becuase all I can think about is this game
this
Been playing chivalry 2 with my bf and Ark ascended
but im thinkin the enviorment and flying in horizon might get me through
the old gens were š but now there all dead
i have so many unfinished games but none of them would satisfy me rn
does it rub better on ps5
ohh i also just started playing resident evil revelations 2 w my friend
yeah rub not run rub
It does compared to Xbox
Still only 30 fps at times though
Xbox got done dirty
oh interesting my brother is telling me to play in the mean time to get my mind off avatar
i might but itās in 3 days š«£
Itās very pretty and I like the changes to the original map
speaking of which i need to clean my ps5 soon
The jungles give me avatar vibes
Iām building a treehouse in the jungle as my peaceful base
i never finished forbidden west š¦ i got the mount i wanted and then stopped lol
Lol not much happened after that

hahahaha
Clean? Like dust it?
Horizon Zero Dawn is 12 bucks right now on steam
yesš
it gets so dusty easily for some reason
IDK WHY
Oof you better be careful, just is the worst enemy to all machines
i kinda want to get it on PC for 12 bucks! i mean
Have you dusted the fans in the room you keep it in?
Have you changed your air filter too?
i love some good just š
yeahh!
yeahh totally š
I would try changing your air filter

Youāre supposed to change it every month anyways
every what
Oof I donāt want to know what youāre breathing
iām a clicker
ITS NOT THAT BAF
bad

me when i lie

I read that not all ikrans will like the same food
yeah thatās rye
For example mine love fish but my bf one love meat
And another player other type of food
true*
Wow
Hi
Variants
Its a couple i think
A male and a female and they was sleeping together
First sexual dimorphism i ever see in avatar
they donāt have any difference other than color, itās probably like how ikrans have different colors not depending on their sex
Explain them sleeping together
???? theyāre social animals
i thought they was just chilling
literally šš
The white one was the First to notice danger and Go up
ok
Which is prob the male
or itās just closer to the player so it was able to notice lol
thatās how games work
Are u really saying there is no behaviour in these animals
where did i say that
What If im correct and you can find couples
iām just explaining how games work and how npc awareness goes
I mean they literally confirmed there Will be baby ikrans
where was that confirmed for the game š
dude thatās not in game thatās from the singapore experience
I know
They used this
They used their concept
To make this
This baby ikran
Do you want me to take a screenshot of the part of the vĆdeo they say that
what does this have to do with the game
i donāt think itās relevant to the topic we were talking about so no
there is honestly no information on the sexual dimorphism on pandora i believe
the only sexual dimorphism weāve seen is in the naāvi tbh
theres really no difference outwardly thatās obvious, for those two animals we canāt really tell as for ikrans/titanothere/etc both male and female have bright colors
maybe in the future they will dive into that in a field guide book or something hopefully, i am quite interested in the differences honestly
dude baby ikrans existing in canon does not mean they will be in the game
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora isnāt just a licensed game, itās canon to the Avatar universe. That means everything in it is a recognised part of the official Avatar story, approved by the studio that made the original movies. Anything Ubisoft created had to fit perfectly within this existing, intricate world.
This is the Inside Story of how Ub...
Watch at 19:45
And Tell me after you watch
bro thatās not talking about the baby ikran šš thatās talking about a creature
it could or could not be but i dont think the baby ikran for show is a confirmation lol, and he says species not ikran
a separate creature
^
Which creature is there that we never saw
they didnt show
they didnāt say
theres a lot of new creatures that have not been shown
Then why they show ikran picture
it shows the exhibition event
Hmm
Btw we Will know what the white and red stegobeest
Are
If they are only variations or something else
In 2 days
Sorry
3
And that IS true
We Saw 20 from 42 creatures
Which they are refusing to show us until release
it is called soundblast colossus
sturmbeest?
there is no creature called stegobeest, i think that was an unofficial name for the soundblast colossus
True
Btw
Do you think we Will see herds of sturmbeest like in the movie
I Hope we will
yes there are
I dont wanna Hunt them when they are alone
you can see them in some gameplay footage playthroughs
Feels stupid
I hate to see solitary sturmbeests
In the gameplays
Feels stupid
They arent solitary creatures
Its a game and they are capable of making them move in herds
yes they move together in the game
In a gameplay i Saw 2
Moving together
Only 2 juveniles
Like jeez where is their mother
Maan i Hope there are juve hexapedes
May be so cute
Oh my
Do you think
Turtapedes Will be in the game
Yes they live in rainforests
This Guy Will surely be
Its a crab that walks around the rainforest
Like a land crab
pretty sure some of the creatures from the pandorapedia are from the disneyworld attraction
canāt tell you which ones tho i donāt know for sure
They are canon
Even If they are from there
This one is
The sagittaria
looks cool as hell
Yes
Wanna see more
Thats a freshwater rainforest aquatic predator
that one is so scary looking š
That like a crab?
As long as itās not a spider. I hate spiders!
tf you getting these from gustavo
š±
wtf gustavo
What
That crab is kinda cute ngl
Anyone else take off work to play this? Not the only reason I took off, but one of them.
No i work at the day of release
But return 1 hour after release
Which is ok
Will dont die If i dont play at the exactly same time It releases
Iāll be working until 11 PM Thursday, so wonāt play until Fridayā¦but off five days.
stop āš½ posting these gustavo
youāre haunting me
So hoping I can finish it before I have to go back to work
Iāll be off five days, not one. XD
Oh
Working until 11PM Thursday.
It comes out on the 7th, thoughā¦havenāt heard anyone is doing early release.
Found a close up of the male variant
nice
Avatar Frontiers of Pandora still beats Star Citizen in the flora/fauna department
100%!! I mean that lush Kinglor Forest is phenomenal!
amazing
Like so pretty and this is only an old version
nice

Mine says the same thing lol
Hello overachiever
Way to flex to us slackers

we didn't notice but our accounts already have access to the game to be able to test it š
imagine
Pay $90 to get early access 48 hours before launch
On top of the $70 you paid for standard edition

why cant i preload š
nvm im dumb it says the 5th
š
@solemn sorrel Cool, but you probably want to post the screens in the spoiler area.
so pretty
where you get these pics?
i think the more expensive options came with a digital art book
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora

idk where u r but if its midnight u should be able to preload
Spain
Notice how it says the last update was on may
When we'll can preload already !

šš¤·āāļø
Lmao. A lot of possible wallpaper on pcs
X2
So cute to say dodo brain
Would it be cute if I said my āooga booga caveman brainā instead?
No
146!
i'm soo strong
ahhhhh!!!! it's a community challenge!! it means that other people who are currently playing it
that's why
probably devs testing
I just thought of it, but in fact it was the testers who had access to the game to do their final reviews.
they are tryharding so muchhh š
I'm curious to see if it will still be as active tonight (because it could show that they haven't left the game yet, and that they're having a good time?)
keep updating us!!!
I am gonna leave the laptop on to preload before I go to sleep
I havenāt had my ps5 preload yet but it says on the picture they sent out that itāll be 12 am local time
At least for December 5th but my ps5 says itās expected to download today so idk š¤·š»āāļø
You can download yet?
Now? Idk
I will look at 1 pm
What time is now?
I read it between 1pm and 2pm to preload
UTC is universal coordinated time
So I understand between 1-2 pm we can preload?
Idk
Maybe even more late
same for me , i didnt get preload at 12 am on ps5
You will be able to preload as soon as the time past 1 pm UTC
isn't UTC still 11 am now?
||heavy spoilers for ps5 users if they try and go down and look at the activities for the game||
umm UTC is a different time zone, you can check it here https://www.utctime.net/
UTC time now (Coordinated Universal Time) helps you to get the current time and date in UTC (GMT) local time zone, what is the time now in UTC.
Coordinated Universal Time is 1:00 hour behind Madrid, Spain
So it's 2 hours š„¹
Nevermind, I will check at 1pm and then 2pm so...
soonā¢
#avatarfrontiersofpandora #Eurogamer The brand new Far Cry ga...um...cough...The brand new Avatar game, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora gameplay is out tomorrow and now that the review embargo has lifted, it's safe for Ian Higton to finally step into the world of Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora PC Gameplay! Join Ian for an epic 3 hour stream that show...

No sorry
Iām avoiding this like the plague
Sameeee hahaa

Poor link
I'm only looking at the character customization system then leaving the video
the hype is much too strong
Don't want any story spoilers.
Same probably
literally
i say this
and watch the first three hours
ššš
I know the feeling
attention streams are already in progress on the game!!!
Iām gonna watch for customisation thatās it
x)
As soon as customisation is done Iām gone and disappearing from the internet
i shouldnāt of done that
Its meant for tomorrow.
So tomorrow I'll go look at the customization then dip from the video.
Same
bros tryna traumatise me more
oh
Just about to look at the customization system then dip
Alright I've seen it now.
Won't spoil anything.
šš

Sent it in dms.
ty

Alright.
Just search "avatar frontiers" on youtube and put the filter live š
youre a legend thank you

Not yet
Best to not speak about whatās going on
Ohā¦.

I love the hair style ||with leaves in it||
Saw the customization already too which is all I wanted. Now i disappear for the next couple days and beat the game
Just clicked off
Yeah the other one was 1 hour and 30 minutes long. He got a good amount into the story, but I stopped watching after seeing customizations
never in my life would i have thought youād say that š
nooooooooooo I fall aspleep and missed it š
samee š
really wanted to see the character creation
Haha what? 
Awww man you shoulda seen it
Pretty cool face sliders

Previously shared from Massive Entertainmentās YouTube channel:
A delegation from the Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora dev team recently took flight to Lightstorm Entertainment to participate in a preview event for Press and Content Creators. Dóri Halldórsson from Massive managed to tag along to document the efforts poured into making this occasion...
Same! Iām gonna be taking some bomb photos with photo mode for my new desktop background
I really want some night bioluminescence shots of kinglor
Iāll definitely be posting photos on this server
Is anyone playing on PC and having issues with rendering, loading screens and sound issues?
The day 1 patch hasnāt been released on pc yet
So if you are having issues it might be due to that
thereās what i was thinking
I have some tearing on my screen. Fps is 80 90. No issue with loading screen. Sound is just sooooo nice
Anyone on ps5? It feels like 30fps
If you have it at quality mode, it would be 30 fps
Oh I should check settings, seems I missed it in the beginning thx. Btw nice profile picture šš»
Performance mode is 60fps i think
If I understand it correctly so all the difference between performance and quality modes is in 2 effects, or even in 1 effect
Misoo [: This game is an incredible cool game
Bow and Arrow is not feeling right. Far Cry got better bow and arrow mechanics, we can collect arrows back, arrows stick to the enemy when it hits something etc
Avatar was supposed to have the best Bow and Arrow mechanics
You can unlock retrieve arrow skill in Maker skill tree
Dope! Gotta get that
How in the hell did I not see this
Iām annoyed with myself
Or gathering a ton of sticks
Donāt skip on the polymer stick things until you got that skill
Itās my main bow at the moment
and choppers
so cool to use
Heavy bow is op
not much impressed by the game atm, main problem atm is my storrage is full and i have no way to deposit stuff
craw and jump feels slugery thats something wich is alot easyer in other games, and i miss to see my char, dont like the egoshooter view
Oh if you to resistance base and head down into the cave I believe thereās a storage spot near there
Theres a storage spot in the aranahe hometree to the left of the crafting table
hm near the resistant camp could u be a little more specivic cuz i havent found that cave yet š
The game is kind of grey for me any ps5 graphic?
Yuppp
Itās where nor and the rest are when you are ordered to retrieve them
Youāll also find stashes around something called ||āField basesā || thatās your storage basically
My bf says the NPC that are not main characters look like PS3 graphics. What are y'all's opinions?
Sometimes the textures don't seem to load for me either, makes them look like RuneScape models lol
I loved the movies, is the game on the same level as them?
I think it's beautiful but it could "always look better" it's subjective it doesn't look bad at all. However you would think from a well-known studio they would go completely all out like BG3
On pc the game looks like a PS3 game
Your pc must not be great then. š
It meets recommended requirments
Hm, that sucks. I'm running it on ultra with a 4080 and the game is absolutely stunning.
That's good for you, I have to run it on low and get 35 FPS average
With recommended specs? š±
Yep
That's atrocious..
Spent like 430 buying an upgrade and 2 copies of the game for me and a friend
So I feel like I wasted a lot
Yet another unoptimised game it sounds like. š¦
Which components do you have?
My specs?
Jeez that's a lot of money. Almost better off buying a ps5 and playing it on there at this point. I would, if I didn't suck so bad at aiming with a controller lol
Looked into that option and that would've cost me like 600
And I can't afford that-
Cpu: amd Ryzen 5600
GPU: geforce rtx 3050
understandable
I think they recommend a rtx 3060 but obviously it's not much difference
Ah, I'm seeing their minimum requirement is a 1070 which closely equals the 3050 from what I've read the other day. The recommended seems to be the 3060ti. Haven't done much research about that one though.
Oh well that explains slot then
Alot*
I guess I'll have to wait for the optimisation update
Do you have gsync by any chance? It could make it a lot more playable!
I remember when cyberpunk came out and I still had my 1070.. GSync was my saviour. š¤£
Hoping it will come soon so you'll get to enjoy it! I do understand the need for a better card. There's so much going on in the world.
Gsync?
Oh I don't have any screen tearing problems and I've got vsync on
Hey at least you aren't falling through the floor in the first tutorial mission like I am
||There's skill in Hunter/Warrior skill to recover arrow.||
I played on recommended too. Its looks so beautiful to me. Can you share in which area or aspect you found that it's look PS3?
I played on recommended specs and got average 150fps. Are you sure you're recommended???
Mine is i5 10th gen and rx 6700 xt.
@mint vine have 3050 too and he can run it 60fps. š¤
yessir
on medium settings aswell
and haven't crashed once
havent crashed. playing on 4090 and I9 processor with 96gb ram. still stutters on low settings. cant interact half the time.
Can you elaborate more on stutters? Is it frequently or only on combat? Or in specific area?
For myself my game stutters too but not that frequent
maybe they will release optimisation patch soon
Did anyone watched the stream and got this ?
I did š
Nicee do you have to wait for urs on December 19 or they already put it in the game ?
To your question, immediately into game I have to slow walk to be able to interact. If I go to a plant to get item takes 30-40 sec to register. In combat, AI stand back up like I never fought them. Worsens if I run anywhere like the game is not keeping up. If I go to an automatic door takes another 30-60sec for it to register Iām there. Have to reload from main menu for progression in areas because it doesnāt register I am there or I fall through buildings as it still loads
Nope it's in game now! š
Ohh where did you find it or get it cause idk where to look for it ?š
Did you link your twitch to your Ubisoft account? If so just claim them on twitch and then go in game to your weapon customization screen and they should be in there to add to your weapons š
nah not really, you should play far cry and use its bow, it is clean and realistic and got better mechanics. If this was combined with all the skills etc of the Avatar, it would have been the best game of the year.
Well that is skill, kinda boring, it should have been retrievable from the start. Moreover, arrows need to stick, the arrow flight effect needs to be removed, there is no arrow seen at all.
I have the same and I'm playing medium-high graphics
Use AMD and FSR in settings and video
Definitely my favourite game of all time, but i wished that new game plus was a thing tho.
I am
Everything looks like plastic
Mmmm idk, I see pretty well
Yea I did I made sure I connected twitch to Ubisoft account I think
I would send a screenshot of what I'm seeing but discord isn't allowing pics apparently
Maybe your rank isnāt high enough
Ok
Oufff. Sorry to hear that. I didn't encounter major issues like that. Maybe wait till they addressed the issue and come up with a patch.

I think I kicked the wasps nest.
my first impression was u cant go everywere u want ... and i absolutly dissliked the crawlegoshooter part on the start with its bad graphic style... i was very close to drop the game until cuz of bugs like this...
It has its own way up near the hill's foot
someone has found this in a better quality?
Or gold fangs from Viperwolfs
The quality system for gathering Iām still trying to figure out. It seems to be based on probabilities. So the likely hood of you getting better materials is lower but you can and should be able to increase that chance by taking out RDA outposts to get rid of pollution
It also probably increases with good gathering techniques and conditions and hunting with clean and merciful kills
I want to enjoy this game, but I do have mental and physical challenges. The idea that the game doesnāt āhold your handā in guiding you through it, makes me playing this game NOT enjoyable at all. Iām sorry if most of you disagree with me, I have the same right to āenjoyā a game as a normal person. Why make it so stupidly difficult just to go from point A to point B? Iām sorry for venting. I was really looking forward to this game, I have always loved and enjoyed Ubisoft as a developer because they have made provisions to make their games accessible to all levels of skill. ā¦except this one. š„²
I found the brach, in one of the topper on the mountains
I'm honestly having a blast
Info wish the game had 3-4 person multiplayer multiplayer
It would be interesting if the game had more than two player co op
I guess for technical reasons itās not sustainable
Thereās a way up to it you have to follow the path
I'm stumbled too but there's a path up to the mountain. We are Navi. And it is a Navi way to explore.
??
Benchmark
Oh
And what exactly about it? Sorry Iām a bit confused there was no context to the image
Testing my pc benchmark for my pc
When playing solo, allow the game to slow down or pause when accessing the weapon wheel.
What does it mean by blood leaf pollen as best quality
I think you gotta have blood leaf pollen on you to collect certain items
I do wish/hope that the game gets an update in the future for four person multiplayer
same
Just completed the main story Iām looking forward to the dlc
Navi children should be included at the Hometree. This will provide a stark contrast to the main protagonist's own upbringing in a RDA facility.
Gonna try and get the collectibles?
Yeah
really?!
damn
and it was CRAZY
i got into the clouded forest yesterday
but no spoilers dw
damn really?
really?
what the hell
ššš
i sent that message once
Yep
How many hours?
Constant grinding since release
iāve clocked in about 43hrs
My game stats say 1 day 8 hours and 39 minutes which is a lie cause I know for a fact Iāve played more
PS5 sucks at keeping track of play time. Only a few I agree with. No clue how it is on XBox.
Xbox also sucks
You did all the side quests too @molten sapphire ?
I stopped at kinglor and doing all the sidequests
Still doing it tho.
hehehe
Right! It is odd that Ubisoft didn't add Navi children wandering around and playing around the clan locations
Would be interesting to also see human children
Since it's been 16 years and someone is bound to have had a child during that time
I do like how the Hometree looks in the game
The little pods all around the inside are neat as they act as separated rooms/homes for the Na'vi that live there
I wish we had our own little home in there to decorate with trophies and such
Romance options would be cool as well
There are naāvi children! Iāve noticed one in the nursery at the zeswa clan
And thereās some sitting down in HomeTree as well! You canāt speak to them but they are there
The selected Audio Log should continue to play in the background after the full screen menu is closed. The player can continue on with the exploration while still listening to the audio log.
yeah i found it, but it allready killed my imersion... i hate linear games... i love it more the new enviroment lets u explore it, but kills u if ur not ready, that dosent kill the imersion with invisible walls..
Wait let me make sure Iām understanding this correctly. First you complain about the game not giving you enough guidance, now the game is apparently too linear and has killed your immersion?
I agree :/
Story and easy levels should be easy and accessible for all player
And they difficul one for those who want to try hard
just talking about hordes of RDA Grind ...
Ah I see what you mean
Sorry I thought you were talking about the game overall
I read your earlier posts said that you are commenting a lot about what you hated in this game. I dont know what you meant by linear games. Avatar The Game 2009 IS a linear game. I dont see linear aspect in this game. I'm sorry if I'm being rude but you sounded so hateful and despise. You should do some research before stating things are bad like you said earlier there is no storage and you are this š¤ close to drop the game regarding you didn't found the way up. I dont see what you're after except just a haters trying to spread the fire. If not I'm very sorry coz i felt that way towards your words. I'm sorry for saying this coz i really love this game and I can't stand people saying bad things ALL THE WAY. You just can ignore this btw. š
wtf.... i have to do research in what i like and not ... a linear game is a game were u cant go anywere, were u must do quests to enter other ways routes realms, even in ur char ur bound by the story, u cant do anything else as be the story hero, thats what i call linear, ur bond by the rules regardless what u want and do... u even dont have the choise were and how the mark looks like i personaly dislike most of tattos special those u have gained by birth...
if i say a company wich sells mostly ego shooters cant do a god RPG, actualy i bite myself throught, my words a year bevore Frontiers became true, "i hope the best i fear the worst"... and it exactly became true for me, for me its way to much RDA and fight stupid NPCs, and to less pandora and navi...
and yes i realy hate the start, in the bunker, because it reminded me on so many ego shoters, tell me u had freedom to travel through that base or wasnt it a linear one way u have to get rid of obstakles way ?
even if u play a navi, as example the ikran, it choises u not u choise him running through the others and aiming for the only one was a bit, diffrent then the movies, even if u can change color and look after that, but until u dont know..
but i allready noticed the game has repetes boring features like the new diablo wich i droped very fast, like some npcs, have the same voice the same style even the same face, of navi in different camps repeation the same words, commenting about my cloth is once funny hearing it in other camps by the same looking guy is a bit repeating lol...
atm i can clearly say this game is like hogwards nice on the first sight but after u have finished it it contains no longlivety, i expected alot more from frontiers, yes i play it, but for me its allready clear once i have played it through i go back to games like moded conan exiles, Ark, subnautica, wich offers alot more long play fun.. and watch subnautica it looks underwater like Pandora, while frontiers u have the feeling u dive through brackwater, even if all RDA souroundings are gone....
the only thing wich makes me play frontiers atm is the curiosity whats behind the next stone, what comes next whats new, and how does it look like, cuz i havent been everywere on the map and thats something i love to play since LineageII explore and see new stuff, maybe as the first one ... and frontiers the game wasnt even released there were people allready roll up the hole map wich was a bit lol for me... well at least i can say frontiers will hold me a little bit longer then the new diablo, diablo lacks in beauty of the world well i can clearly say frontiers looks alot better, but when i use my navi sense, and see a plant wich is explained to be best harvested at night and i cant do anything not even harvest it.. its .. well.. imersionbreaking.
well i mostly explore the game inside from inside and what it offers me without seeking hints in forums
so my speak about the game is what i found inside and how it appeals to me..
comming back to the hatefull speach, call it Language Barrier, i may be able to speak englisch but for me it has no color cuz iam not be able to see if it sound harsch or not
Thanks for clearing the facts to me. As what you said i agree. Hopefully they will come with another immersive and rich Avatar games in future
I understand your criticism. The reason why the gameās story is more linear is to keep the game cannon with the movies events. Giving the player that much choice in a story and trying to make that cannon would be a big mess to try and sort out and is a huge undertaking for a game developer to do. Moreover in regards to your complaints about the ikran Lightstorm which is James Cameronās studio approved of how that played out. Everything in the game require their approval which is why it took so long for this game to come out. The game also never promised to be an RPG either, it states itās a first person action adventure game. Additionally, of a game this scope and size what they have managed to do is impressive from a technical standpoint. However, I do agree that the NPCs are shallow and certainly not itās strong point. As for the plants having only certain conditions in which you can harvest them wasnāt immersion breaking for me. It actually requires you to think about what your harvesting and to aim for better quality. Donāt get me wrong the crafting system has its flaws and is by no means perfect but I would hardly say having specific conditions that are best to harvest something is immersion breaking. That is very similar to how real world plant and crop harvests work. Overall, I understand if you arenāt enjoying this game and thatās fine youāre entitled to your own preferences. But, going into it you already had an attitude of āI hope this game isnāt bad but I fear for the worstā so it became a self fulfilling prophecy for you. And I do understand your criticisms of the game, but I wouldnāt go as far as to say the game has āno longevity.ā You may not like the game but most reception of the game has been positive and the general audience, myself included, also enjoys it. I understand that this game may not give you that level of freedom you wanted but they never promised the player that to begin with and they stated multiple times the gameās story is cannon.
But I do understand where you are coming from. Iām sorry that you are disappointed and arenāt enjoying the game. But it seems like you had expectations going in for this that either werenāt realistic or you went in thinking the game was bad and thus your own perception made you hyper aware of the gameās flaws and less aware of the gameās strengths. No game is perfect and gameās like Baldurās Gate 3 is an RPG that gives you a lot of freedom is very complex and is a technical feat in of itself. I think itās healthy to go in with no expectations at all if possible with playing something and giving it a fair chance. But I do have to agree with Aby a little bit that you have been coming off as very hyper critical of every little thing. And it just comes off like because the game didnāt fulfill all of your expectations instead of acknowledging itās strengths as well as itās flaws itās all been about the negative. But donāt get me wrong I think some of the criticisms you have had are valid. And I by no means think the game is perfect either, but I donāt think the game is bad or no longevity. Maybe not for you personally but I definitely see this game as one of my comfort games. But I do think this game has laid a solid foundation and definitely has potential for future growth.
I am officially in a dying loop on the second mission you have to survive the RDA...
And I am on story mode
I can't understand why they made a story mode if it's to make it so difficult.... I guess if there is no update to soften that difficult I will stop playing... I can't be relaxing playing a game like that sadly... š¢š
do u play fluffy mode or hardcore story mode ?
honestly i died alot at the beginning until i fould out the flaws of the NPC RDA AI , so i mostly hide in the back take lonly soldiers with my bow until only the big guys are left, then i throw in a few explosives and done. while i dont even touch a enemy its just seek a high point and aim, all npcs have a walk area they dont leave, if u lure them to them to that region they stay angry but no longer following u, most the time they start jumping between a save place and open ground were u only need to time ur arrows, or in may cases ur so far that they cant detect from were the arrow came, the only ones for me wich are harder, are those with the livebeam of the Thanatos, and like him every mistake is ur last cuz theyr punisment is one hit certain death.... most hated by me the sharpshooters wich aim and kill u in one shot, while u dont even have seen them even with the navi sence they can pinpoints through nature like its not exiting while its for u a Wall of plants and u can even see were they are.. honestly iam a navi i should see more then them i should have more range in combat then them... but here u see npc and programming are not very well ballanced, and infight close range i dont like cuz who wants to look like a swiz cheese... if not one not two not three but 7+ gatling guns fire in ur direction while not hiting the own friends... friendly fire is unknown to the rda
Easy šš¢
u can also check the places for explosives and pinpoint the right moment or threw a granate on them
in one lucky camp i throw in one granate and the secondary explosions from all burning and explosive red containers ripped them all appart only one survivor...
It's the part where you learn to use exolosive traps but after exploding the 1 or 3 first helicopter, I am overwhelmed by enemies:/
well in fluffy mode its all about know ur weapons dont relay on one only...
the trick ist to kill the helis bevor they drop the reinforcement š
I guess I cannot quit the quest now I am in because of auto save š¦
u dont need to finish it, do annother quest grow in lvl and explore find trees that give u health and later try again..
use the skillpoints
there is only one quest u shouldnt queit thats the one for the ikran š
Its the one before Arhane clan I guess
When I die I only have the option to restart and same When I leave the quest area :/
Can we talk about it somewhere else to avoid spam ?^^
we can but i think here is good to, because thats ur impression so far, at ur point of game play :)=
what quest let u die if u leave the quest area ????
I am in Becoming RDA assault ? (Sorry The name in French is a bit different) after the cinematic with Sol'ek
pffft i dont know maybe i hadnt that quest and ur further then myself š
This one I think
oooohhh that one, well i had no problems with that, and the first one i had problems with was the Thanatos and a far very far away rda installation were everyone was imba, and i was the chicken... its what i sayed npcs in this game dont have a good AI learn theyr patterns of move then u can shot them down like a child with a air rifle, what the shop keepers dont tell u is the ammunition is not spheric thats why u cant hit the same spot again š
I guess I am just very bad with FPS š
in that case shut down all ur shadow options to zero, that gives the most fps boost
Shadow options ?
yes press esc, then go to settings go to graphis, there u dissable every and anything that contains the name shadow..
cuz shadows are the thing that eat up the most performance special in high complex enviroments, if u dont have a high end pc...
I am on PS5 :/
fresh water irl isnāt as colorful as the sea 𤷠same thing can be said about pandora
Also you can't see clear under water unless you were glasses so...
And think lots of creatures and animals go through the rivers and I don't think the animals are to much clean XD
true and freshwater is typically more murky
For me its really natural and real that we can't see clearly under water and is murky
Guys one question
How do you take photos doing animations? I know how to do animations outside the photo mode but inside no
Ok, I found it XD
that sounds fishy š
Xd
Not cool
Hopefully the developers will fix those issues soonš
Despite the challengesš„±it's great that this game got better after the Aranae hometree and the ikran
today i entered a big rda complex with alot stong rda fighters, i think i entered that complex way to early, but as it stoods on the ground with the hometree, and i have done most of the surounding exploration , i gave it a try and i wasnt expecting that many doors that close behind u once ur inside, the many stages have to be mastered, to walz through, Eogoshooter Realm after, realm filled with enemys wich appear from nowere, with the motto stage cleared her the next wave...
after the game got better after the Aranae hometree and the ikran, thats a downfall back to the start, atleast u could grab some more items up then on the start were u could nothing, and were u crawl out of the rda Base, lame egoshooter crawl shot and collect items from ground grind urself through...
plus that base has lots of graphical bugs and gaps, were u fall though the roof, stuck on items or enemys that can shot through walls while u cant... cant say i enjoyed that part so far very much, because that plays exactly like all other Epic and Ubisoft Egoshooter games, and thats not what i expected from Frontiers... actualy i was be able to destroy the laser, and it didnt ended there, so i moved further from one to the next egoshootergrinder to the next... and iam still not of this base out cuz its not easy thing because of my low lvl wich is 7 atm, and this base ist ment for lvl 20..
what sadens me most, are those close behind u walls wich prevent u gather stuff back, so u have the option: loose all materials allready spend and wasted inside and come in later, or grind urself out. and thats were i stuck atm, i was be able to shut down the laser but each of the follow stages set u back to start the grind that laser round again and again and again, if u got a lucky hit through walls from them its super frustrating @restive shore
i just wounder how many more stages i have to master until i can get out of this stupid Egogrindershooterdungeon
Oh l see
and this is the worst thing on everything as i started it, i had over 100 spareparts, now i noticed i had only 10 left, and now i understand why, everytime i got killed the map resets and all placed mines go away to, but ur char is not set back its allways saved so with everytime i didnt made it i lose spareparts and now i must leave this idiotic grinderdungeon wihout be able cleared it cuz i lost all my spareparts in the savegame prozess... this takes my mood for this game to ground zero... game is on autosave but every save is overridden so no go back to the point i started and all the spareparts are lost gosh how i hate programming thats done like that...
but why would you go in the base when youre only level 7?
I was thinking this!
If you used your Navi senses it would have high lighted the enemies showing they are elite or out of your level range. Someone in chat was actually able to beat that base at your level but they had to be super stealthy to do so. While itās not impossible to do it you werenāt meant to go there at your current level. Itās not the gameās fault you went to a place under leveled. I understand youāre frustrated and I hate to be this guy but again itās not a problem with the game. The whole point of the level system is to get you to slow down and enjoy the game. But tbh following the main story Iāve barely had any problems keeping up with the recommended level requirements.
I mean I would have personally noticed if enemies were barely taking damage that something was up.
I swear that every time you talk about the game itās goes downhill real quick. Like every time itās an attitude of āthe game sucks and hereās whyā and Iām sitting here thinking like āok why are you playing something that you seem to hate?ā It makes no sense to me. But also the attitude youāre taking with this game is always negative. And in this case instead of reflecting on your mistakes you made as a player and taking the L you blame the game. If you arenāt enjoying the game Iām sorry to hear that, but donāt subject yourself to play something you clearly arenāt enjoying.
Donāt get me wrong you are entitled to your own opinion and I think it is good to give feedback over a game, but this complaint in particular comes of as very ārage quitā kind of attitude.
But what is a problem with the game and not you is being shot through the walls and the bugs. So that I definitely understand the frustration and that is a very valid complaint.
this game just impresses me more and more yes i noticed the lvl of the base is higher but what i not noticed or way to late noticed was i was loosing my spare parts, cuz of reset the floor lvl, for me this is not a reset if the hole room and the rooms after that resets to zero, and its eating ur recurces away by not reset ur char to to the moment u entered the room...
and well ich just share my impression and even if u dont understand my way playing the game its a way i do play it and i share what happens if u do it like that to show bugs and problems for the devs to fix, wich will be not fixed if everyone only wears the pink glases..
Like I said you had a valid complaint with the bugs you experienced. And I never said there was anything wrong with giving feedback on said issues as I think that is a good thing to do. If you have an issue with the game having a penalty for when you die Iām sorry to say most games do as an incentive to be careful. At this point itās time to take a step back, take a deep breath, accept the loss, and move on.
Is it a problem with the game if I cant Succed the Zomey rescue (level 4 quest) while I am at level 5 ? :/ in easy mode...
game is awesome. Made even better when you turn off the hud/quest markers and avoid fast traveling. Doing so turns an otherwise generic game into a truly unparalleled immersive experience with the best exploration I've ever seen in a AAA title.
haha what do u think i did but fighting those bugs takes away alot wind in the sails..
No I died so much that the game made it easier for meš
I personally didnāt have issues with the mission on normal mode š¤·š»āāļø. But I do agree that the difficulty scaling is wild sometimes lol 
I sorta understand. I experienced the same bug with a story mission in the clouded forest last night and died twice because of it but I was still able to get through it without souring my mood towards the game. But thatās just cause Iāve played games that literally are a far more buggy mess (Ark, Skyrim, oblivion) and still have a great time with them. I also enjoy souls like games cause Iām secretly a masochist with games like that I guess and genuinely enjoy the punishing aspects of them. That still doesnāt excuse this particular bug but the devs shouldnāt have any problem patching that out. But again I understand the frustration but sometimes you really just gotta take things in stride or go with the flow so to speak. I try not to let games get to me so much to where I get pissy. If I feel myself getting that worked up over a game (which isnāt very often) thatās my cue to take a step back and take a break for awhile to cool off. Donāt let games have that kind of emotional power over you.
But again if you are really hating the time you are spending in this game then donāt force yourself to play it if you arenāt enjoying it. If you really dislike it as much as youāve expressed (again thatās just how it comes off to me maybe Iām wrong so correct me if I am) then stop playing it and get your money back if you can. Video games are meant to be something you enjoy doing, not a job or a miserable grind. Play stuff you enjoy playing. But to make it clear Iām not saying donāt give feedback to the devs. Itās good to bring things, especially this bug in particular to their attention. I would suggest submitting a support ticket so that they know of the issue. Once you do that the ball is in their court as the developer. Also keep in mind the studio might have given the devs time off since they just released the game and itās close to the holidays. Plus they have been working on it for 7 years (at least) now so I think itās fair for them to get a rest break.
And dont make Zeph start on not getting a thanator as her pet.
All of your arguments are not as bad as not getting a thanator ride. Believe me.
What do you mean ?
For the zomey quest I kept dying so I press retry straight away, and at first I had to deal with all the enemies again, but as I kept dying they stopped spawning the early enemies so in the end I only had to deal with 2 amps and then the reinforcements
Really ? How many times did you retry ?
Too many to count...
In one row ?
Yes
Finally succeeded with level 6 !
My honest impression of the game is this:
I feel Avatar Frontiers of Pandora is a great game with great graphics and an impressively sized map to explore. I feel that the tribes depicted are great! I love their themes and designs! It has a great story plot and such as well.
However, I have completed many of the side stuff like the Sarentu totems and maxed out my skill trees. I also got all my ancestors skills as well and now it's mainly just side quests at this point. My issue is that the RDA bases are sort of just copy and pasted. I also fear that after all the RDA bases are done there will be a feeling of nothing left to do.
I hope that in the future we will get something like random RDA raids in villages and outposts. I also hope that we get more areas to explore and visit
One of the best games i played this year, its amazing, so beautiful and the gameplay is so good!
I agree, but I'm so worried that imma beat everything lol
thatās kinda what happens when you complete a game lmao
theyāll be adding more stuff with the dlcs but even then every game with dlc roadmaps have a lull between content
Yes, but unfortunately everygame has an end
Would be cool if they had a mode where two teams go against each other
Like one team is humans and the other Na'vi
I agree
I want more coop tbh. Like more people and maybe bigger bases to take on
and did the game sell well? for there to be a sequel.
I want a sequel so muchš„²
I want a sequel so muchš„²
I hope it earns enough to warrent a sequel.
Unfortunately I've been seeing a LOT of the "big" streamers and self proclaimed reviewers bombing the game...
JAJAJAJA ITS LOOKS LIKE IM SLAPPING HIM
It pays to hate avatar and Ubisoft (granted Ubisoft sorta earned it over the years but they arenāt the devs of this game)
But the game has had generally favorable reviews amongst critics and they scored 5th place in physical sales in the U.K. in the week of Dec 9th. So it seems like the game is selling well tbh.
I'd love to see the NPCs stand up for themselves, and fight back against the RDA. There are lots of hunters with bows, but nothing happens when there's danger close by. It would be so nice if the na'vi reacted to their environment.
No na'vi move in the forest, they are always seated.
And even if they get hit by grenades (yes, I've tried lol) they don't react at all.
I sometimes feel alone in the face of danger. And I don't understand the point of updating the resistance laboratories if we don't see any help from the resistance.
āļø
What I saw is, they want to see how well Avatar is when turned to game. And tbh from my view, it's bad for them to make this PG13, as players who play this game is already 18+ By make it PG13 there is not much you can do in game. There's no melee takedowns, even a knife kills. No in depth stealth mechanic. I felt the stealth mechanic is cringy. Hahaha
But I loved to be able to felt how it is living in Pandora
I felt that Ubisoft and Lightstorm can make this game better than this.
I think that is a fair take. They definitely limited themselves by trying to do a rated T rating for this game but I would bet you Disney had something to do with that. I do agree they shouldāve added for depth to the stealth. The game definitely suffered from the extreme collab they had with Lightstorm and because of that I think because it took SO long for Massive to develop literally any asset for the game they probably got burnt out and were trying to just get this game to release already. I mean this game was in development for 7 years at least which is a very long time for game development. They were probably afraid of this game getting lost in development limbo. But I do think that for what itās worth what theyāve managed to do is very impressive from a technical standpoint. I definitely think going forward they have a solid foundation to build on with this game if they decide to make another game or to add updates to flesh out this one. I hope that they continue to support this game and also try adding features like stealth takedowns if possible in the future. I think this game has a lot of potential if they continue to add more content to it. But by no means is this a bad game. I think this game is probably the best Ubisoft game to come out in a long time. I just think they got set back a lot with the collab with Lightstorm unfortunately and it took much more of their focus away from certain gameplay aspects like lack of melee combat and stealth.
