The only thing that's going to change them, is if the general public stops buying/paying for their products for a while.
If that happens, things will change a LOT quicker.

... meh...

...but why was there a four wheeler (quad) on the roof of the building???

Is this the patch that makes it fun?

Elite Dangerous: Star Citizen

I caved last year and bought a $30 pass for star citizen.
I had two thoughts..
First thought was it was insanely pretty. Prettier than Elite, and I have a few hundred hours logged on Elite. The tech really is incredible. They have some really interesting Levels of Detail, and their city tech on planets is nothing short of breathtaking.
My second thought was, "Is this it?" It felt like for all the great tech, there's very little to explore or do.. I was left overwhelmed at the tech, underwhelmed at the content.
To me Elite dangerous was crazy, IT let me get my name on new planets and stars. I could fly wherever I wanted... except onto atmospheric, Populated planets.. and it was that and not being able to walk around my ship that ultimately ruined it for me. And with Odyssey, I still cant land on populated planets or walk around my own ship..... aaaaaaand I would have to relearn a whole new control scheme.
I realize populated planets with cities etc is super hard... but it's what breaks the immersion for me.
now with all these reports of it running like garbage... Its a hard pass for me until they fix those issues and add cities on planets and the ability to walk around my ship.

Yeah? How about bringing back shareware and let people pay what they think it's worth.

Calm down old man

Hey now.. Us old folks paved the way for your Call of Dutys and your Fortnites and your loot boxes. Show some darn respect or we'll hit you with our canes. Lol!

There was an article on kotaku about playing andromeda with mods, some time back.
I took their advice and downloaded the mods they suggested, plus a few extras. Made the game WAAAAAY better and I enjoyed it thoroughly.
I recommend giving it another look, especially if you havent played the original trilogy in a while.

Maybe it's StarCraft: Ghost back from the dead?

Darn, Beat me to it. That's what I came here to say!

Yep. Not free in Canada either. Lame.

SS 1 & 2 were great fun especially with a group of friends. Sam 3 was terrible. I'm reserving Judgement on this one..

Im conflicted. The 80s kid in me is waaaay too excited for this. The seasoned gamer in me tells me its not going to be good...

Maybe it will be like Marvel Ultimate Alliance? I enjoyed that for what it was.

Seriously.. why do they post such low "recommended" specs? I would be pleasantly surprised if this ran at 60FPS on an i7 3770 and a 1060... but realistically Im thinking you'll only get that kind of performance on higher end machines.

Recommended specs are for those who have machines capable of playing at and beyond 4K60. Like me.

Exactly my point... is an i73770 with a 1060GTX gonna play this at 4k60FPS? I think not...

Valve Bioware states that Half Life Anthem is moving away from Full game releases Acts to more frequent Episodic Content Seasonal content.



Honestly, though, I enjoy this game quite a bit. I held off quite a while, deterred by the haters and the bad reviews, but I got it on sale and found that the game play is rather fun. The combat is responsive and the suits feel like they have substance. Its a fun game!

I think people should stop hating and move on.

although... EA still sucks.

My only question, have they kept local split screen coop? This is literally the only reason I would buy this.

Ive been playing the game avoiding any romantic relationships... because I dont want them. Im kinda disappointed that this dlc will force it on me.

OK internet Im disappointed in you.
I news story about Valve making games again quoting Gaben..... and no one has said "HL3 Confirmed" in over half an hour?!?

I am also looking forward to this game. Im just not a fan of the specular highlighting on the foreheads.

admittedly looking forward to the game less since they are *not* including co-op as originally stated by the demo.

but I am looking forward to it nonetheless. the demo was very entertaining in its own right. looking forward to the multi demo next week.

why do ALL next gen characters look like badly molded plastic action figures?

technically its because they put too much specular highlightin g on the character face material. I think they do that because it makes the characters stand out more agains the background.. but it does make the characters look plastic-y. I think they could stand to tone down the specular.

Ill believe it when George says its done. period
