Hope he doesnt play it like a cover shooter. :PIf he plays like he did in the quick look, prob take him years to finish the challenges lol
What worries me the most about the future of Anthem is people denying criticism of the game when its clearly in a rushed and unfinished state. That will make things harder for the devs to see the issues and things will only start to happen when the player base dwindles, at that point EA can just tell BW to cut and run and release minor updates with a skeleton crew. Yeah, Destiny, Division, these games had rough launches, but the studios behind them were in for the long haul, they had no choice but to fix their game.
Andromeda was a game meant to exist for a long time, with mtx for multiplayer, planned expansions, all the same talk we hear about Anthem. But six months down the line the game was dead and buried and EA cut all ties.
The boss gets crushed by a strider in a cut scene when he gets to the last 1/5 of his health bar. Just immediately to cut scene / splat. The thing comes out of nowhere and topples right onto the guy.
err the entire point ofthis game was to move away from characters and story and make a long lasting loot based multiplayer gameNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
That was the whole point I bought the damn game. How could BioWare Edmonton fuck up this bad? They had plenty of time and resources.
There's some hyperbole flying all through this threads.
The story isn't bad at all so far from what I've seen. The NPCs in Fort Tarsis are done quite well and are entertaining.
The combat and mission structure is quite literally par for the course for this genre. The AI is no worse than Destiny. In some ways I'd say its better as Anthem enemy AI actually pushes you and flanks you. Destiny AI tends to play hide and seek at best. Destiny's enemy animations are better though and that goes a long way towards perception.
Bioware has to deal with the bugs. Audio bug is quite annoying and connection losses and CTDs should absolutely be addressed before the 22nd. That's the most important task. Getting all ghese bugs as close to eliminated as possible as quickly as possible.
Let's be real here. Does that actually mean anything nowadays?Its shame because, one of the things they keep reiterating is that its got BioWare story feel.
I don't know why but this made me laugh, trying to imagine this quote on the box cover.
I am a huge fan of Bioware and like Anthem. I think its off to a solid start but anybody who is out here defending the game's bugs is in denial. There are a ton of bugs and many of them quite serious. Allowing people to try this game out when over a 1000 bug fixes are pending in a day one fix is ridiculous. This seems like EA going every game must have early access no matter what even though the devs probably know its a bad idea.
People have different tastes and this kinda game is certainly polarizing especially for folks who are used a certain kind of Bioware game. A lot of folks here are exaggerating how bad this game is imo. I am going to say a lot of that is down to bias. Whether its EA hate or the hate for GaaS games. The story is not earth shattering but its good for a game like this. I am having a much better time that Destiny or even early Warframe. Games like this will evolve over time and get better now whether EA gives it a chance to evolve is the big question.
No, it's worse. Depsite being so polarizing, at least ME3 had an ending.
After you defeat the main antagonist, they basically joke about the job being finished and how you only signed up for one when it's mentioned you have more work to do. That's it.

I don't think the early access is a problem, but if you're going to do early access, put out your day one bug fixes on day one of early access. Otherwise, don't do early access.

So uh, ive just been hitting escape through all dialog and npc chatter... I don't really care about lore and story, just loot and gameplay.

I had claimed a marksman rifle preorder and just finished the incursion where you get to the hangar and now my preorder weapon and another time have disappeared, no longer equipped and no longer in inventory wtf... the legion cosmetic armor is still equipped however and I can't seem to access the shop in the hangar. how the hell do I get back to fort tardis?
You forgot about theNo, it's worse. Depsite being so polarizing, at least ME3 had an ending.

No it isn't. The endings of ME3 were stupid, but primarily because they basically ignored everything you did up to that point. The way it was presented however was leagues beyond the ending of this game.
Let's be real here. Does that actually mean anything nowadays?
You forgot about the
Unceremonious introduction to a new enemy faction (to be added later) with just a dead body being revealed on the table. Had no idea what was going on with that.
and this is what bioware games have become...anthem will be a day never for me for this reason alone
Sounds like BioWare needed to work harder at hiding the loading screens like Destiny does. I haven't played Anthrm myself yet though so I can't speak from experience.
This is fair, I agree.I don't think the early access is a problem, but if you're going to do early access, put out your day one bug fixes on day one of early access. Otherwise, don't do early access.
That's just your opinion, literally. The early access was a method to get people to fork up more money - it's nothing other than a business practice.
It's not a pre-release version, this is the release date. Loads of games do it now "pre-order or buy x edition to play x days early".
Also you really don't understand how feedback and public review works do you? If a game is shit, people are going to talk about it.
If it's good, people are going to talk about that as well. If it's really shit, lots of individual people are going to talk about it a lot.
I understand you're having a hard time resolving that concept and are getting tired of people complaining but each and every person has that right.
Edit: Even if that means 100 pages + , there are millions of people playing it and how many people on this forum?
We also paid money for this we can't get back.
Please tell me, what hard earned cash you payed for Anthem specifically, that you can't get back?
I mostly care about character and story and am indifferent to loot and raids and multiplayer content and I'm really enjoying the game and haven't had any game-stopping bugs.
I mean, someone who skips all the dialogue and story is ignoring like a third or more of what the game is offering. It was sold as a story-driven co-op action rpg and that's what it is.
I don't think the early access is a problem, but if you're going to do early access, put out your day one bug fixes on day one of early access. Otherwise, don't do early access.

Haha that is the TL;DR what i was trying really trying say. I can understand the patch not being able to get through platform cert on the Xbox quickly enough but on Origin I dont see a reason why the patch didnt go in.
