Another She-Hulk? I hope they get chewed out for the rather lazy attempt at creating diversity. How about coming up with new original characters (not that Thor was original or anything)
@madman356647: It is the internet version of 'The Man on The Street'. I'd be more interested people in the industry's reactions, but they'd probably have to tow the line on this issue. Unless they're a cool studio like CDRP.
Neither DLC sounds like it is particularly long and worth a pre-order. Creative Assembly DLC has gone a little crazy, like for Fall of the Samurai (Shogun 2) the DLC game had pre-order DLC from specific retailers. I'm pretty sick of it this shit.
Starting this generation off with shooters like Wolfenstein sounds pretty great, but Wolfenstein The New Order is less like a classic shooter and more like a modern shooter that implements some of the things that made classic shooters great. I'm definitely all for more shooters like Wolfenstein The New Order, as it's one of the best modern shooters I can name, but I don't think it's particularly innovative. Just very, very well put-together.
I agree. I find it difficult to identify specifically what made it more refreshing and engaging, but I really enjoyed it.
Yeah you are totally spot on with that. New Order was a great game to play.
I haven't bought a COD since 4, but having played some of them at friend's homes it seems that I'm not missing much. I haven't bought an FPS like that in a long while. The only game of that variety that I play consistently is Red Orchestra 2/Rising Storm, which is more team oriented. That game has you focus more on objectives than your personal KDR, which makes those moments where you repulse an attack way more satisfying.
The grinding for spells always seemed like a broken system, and I recall reading about the Tornado method on some game walkthrough. Isn't true that you can also get Squall's 'Lion Heart' on disc one?
Ubisoft was never in good standing with PC Gamers with all of the DRM they used with their AC games. Although things have gotten very conspiracy oriented in the community, it is shocking that these features actually help the stability of the game in regards to stuttering. If this does mean a more stable game, then there's little logic in removing it. Could they have really been pressured to make the PC release only on par with their console releases?
Josh Olin, community manager for Turtle Rock got fired for his remarks on the Donald Sterling scandal. He was talking, on his own twitter account, about how sensationalized the whole affair was and that it wasn't much of a surprise that an 80 year old man would hold those views; that said he didn't support Sterling, but was more annoyed about this circling around allegedly illegal recordings of the man.
"Anyone who follows me knows my tweets were not in support of Sterling's actions. Rather, they were promoting three core tenets I believe in: 1) The harm sensational media presents to society. 2) The importance and sanctity of your privacy within your own home. And 3) The right to be whatever you want to be as an American, as long as it isn't hurting anyone else. That last point not to be confused with condoning Sterling's actions, which I don't.
"That said, it's disappointing to see that a select few in Turtle Rock and 2K Games management bought into this hysteria without even having a conversation with me - or even thoroughly reviewing the context of the tweets themselves. Ironically, it serves as a great example of why I hold tenet #1 above so close to heart. That said, everyone should totally still buy Evolve. The guys and gals making that game know their shit, and are making it good."
Considering they didn't confer with him about it, their approach was entirely knee-jerk and overly sensitive. It is unfortunate and downright contemptible that someone can be fired for an opinion, especially one that was not incendiary.
