This looks incredible! can't wait to hear what the guys think of this. i'm behind on bombcasts and I recall recently listening to one from maybe february or march where jeff and drew said they were actually ready for these kind of games (battlefield/cod) to go back to the world war settings. i think drew even mentioned how pumped he would be for a better ww1 game after he kinda enjoyed verdun

Just cancelled my pre-order. Was really excited for this one being a huge star wars kid back in the day but there were just too many things I didn't like about it that made the $80 CAD not worth it. This was the first game I've pre-ordered in years but I feel good about cancelling it now. I have a lot of the same issues as I've read on this thread but here's a few things I really didn't like:

• air vehicle controls
• unbalanced hoth
• terrible and inconsistent partner spawning
• scope of guns were pretty much useless and I found I was getting more kills and head-shots without aiming down the sights which
• the fact that I was getting killed from so far away the pistol or whatever it was called - thing seemed too powerful
• the way you pick up powerups

Overall the thing I found most frustrating is something I really can't blame the game for. It's the constant games I would get into where other players weren't playing for the objectives and just going for a good K-D ratio. This is a huge problem on both maps because it requires players to hold the pods or keep the up-links online and so many times I would find myself being the only player around an up-link or a pod. That pissed me off more than anything as I would run past team mates hiding up on a rock with the sniper rifle while I'm making my way to the objective. So maybe it's not Battlefront I'm done with but this kind of objective based mode in general. I don't know. It looks and sounds amazing but for me the gameplay was sub-par. Cancelled my pre-order this morning and don't regret it.

Maybe. If I had the chance to play it tonight. Was hoping to get in a few hours after work but the fucking thing took/is taking hours to download to my PS4 even though it keeps saying 30 minutes haha. Anyways couldn't wait any longer so i just left it running, we'll see by morning. From the beta footage I've seen it has been quite underwhelming but maybe that's just because I've seen way to much of the Hoth level. Agreed that the air vehicles don't seem to be that great, and the matches seem to be domination by one team (haven't seen any close ones) and the jedi power ups look almost comical to me. Ahhh! I don't know!! I pre-ordered it because I grew up with the original trilogy and I love most things star wars. Hell, all I needed to hear was that john williams score and I was in, but now I may have to see what the reviews say, or at least hear what the GB team has to say once they do a proper Quick Look of the final version and talk about their thoughts on the Bomb&Beast casts. Might be returning it once the pre-order arrives, but we shall see.

Looking forward to playing Broken Age after all the positive talk I heard on the GOTY2014 podcasts, think it was from Vinny in particular. Regardless, the story is supposed to make the game!

Just bought my first GB shirt. Went for the Metal Gear Scanlon one. So pumped to get it!! :)

And now we play the waiting game...

Going to buy a Metal Gear Scanlon...annnddd its gone!!

Just had a quick question for those who have done another play-through of this game. I just finished the game and was wrapping up side quests. I was wondering if collectables like outfits, weapons and chinpokomon carry over to a new game or does you have to start from scratch?

Thanks

@xalienxgreyx:

Thinking about starting a new game but i have almost all the collectibles. Do you happen to know if those (costumes, weapons, chinpokomon) carry over or do you have to start from scratch?

fucking stuck here to. must of failed it 20 times by now. Did it the first time then died on the vacum part, not i cant get past part 2. Tried rotating the stick both ways, fast, slow nothing fucking works.

this is so fucked...i love it
