Not sure why so many people need to qualify their sympathy, by first saying they're not a fan.

I think the reasons people tend not to like him, are exactly why I am a fan. Guy says exactly what he thinks, despite everyone in 2015 being made a of glass. If he oversteps the mark, he admits it and apologises.

Before I saw any of his content, I pretty much wrote Youtube games coverage off, as for teenagers and children. Also, as much as everyone snubs at Youtube games content (me included) I've yet to see a 'professional games journalist' more pro-consumer than TB.

In short, John is a good man and I wish @totalbiscuit the best in his fight.

I didn't know what to expect going in, I love battlefield, infact it's the only muliplayer shooter i've had any interest in for a long time, but I knew they weren't going in to completely replicate that.

I actually really like the more arcadey style to it. I like the token idea, it gives everyone a fair shot at all vehicles and power-ups. It also discourages camping for them due to the randomised aspect.
I also like the idea of everytime you jump into AT-ST or fighter, you have the best and only version, no upgrades to worry about. I do miss classes but I think the card system is a nice simplified way of doing a load-out and I'm intrigued to see what other unlocks are in the full release.

This is not to say I'd want battlefield to be simplified in the same way, it's just nice that battlefront is its own thing, whilst keeping the feel and scale of battlefield.

Actually, I think its more that people have no idea what their doing on Rebel side atm. I won a bunch of games today. Once it's announced that the AT-AT shields are down the rebels are usually just TDM like headless chickens.

I don't think it's perfectly balanced, far from it but we can't blame unbalance when the rebels don't even know what their doing. The AT-AT can soon drop if everyone dumps on them when their supposed to.

If anyone here doesn't know what to do.. activate the uplinks and def them. The progress ring isn't you capturing it, once its fills a Y-wing icon will be added to the top. Keep defending until you get 5?. Then it will announce that the Y-wings have been sent out then the shields on the AT-ATs will be down and they'll get a circular icon over them for their HP. During that time just shoot them with whatever you have. Pop your ion CD's etc. The time you have to do that is at the top shown by your remaining Y-wing icons. Near the end of the run is when the snowspeeders will be available so you get an extra chance to take them down wilth cables. They go down quite easily if everyone joins in.

Saw this coming a mile off. I don't think there is anything wrong with selling cosmetic stuff, this is how the f2p model works.
Though this is destiny and they're already taking the piss with what they charge for scraps of content. Then people without a clue, try and compare it to WoW or another pc mmo.

Check out Dannys epsiode of the point on destiny, if you haven't seen it. Its a good one.

Yeah I think some are, depends on the game. Gbeast often gets the bottom of the pile, I don't want to watch an hour of an indie platformer even if i like the look of it.

You could just accept that sex sells and always has for both men and women.

Here is an advert that I saw today to sell yoghurt to ladies. I find it highly offensive and would appreciate it, if you could all come together and enable me be a victim. Thanks.

Yeah, I own the game and season pass. They've done a really shitty job all round, very little communication on their part. It took them over 2 months to put out the interim patch, that didn't even fix the main problem, which is the data streaming. It's runs at a solid 60 until it has to pull in new data then stutters. I think nvidia guys have had a much better time, if you run AMD you're forgotten.

Even the people who can play it reasonable framerate, haven't had any of their season pass content or even a window for when they'll get it.

I think i'm past it at this point, I've already had the story spoiled just from glancing the many months of support forums.

I loved the game but I don't disagree about the open world not being perfect. Doing a bunch of side-ops in a row, is just annoying. I have all the fast travel points unlocked but i'd rather just return to ACC and redeploy than travel through blank space, or call d.walker just to get there and call Quiet again, at a certain point your just throwing away GMP.

I am glad they didn't just throw in a load of bullshit AC style fluff objectives. I would have loved it if they could keep the organic style gameplay in the open world setting. Have some sort of economy between camps, patrols, resources or officers/VIPs traveling between locations. If you fulton out an officer, they can get the weeks rota of convoys or staff movements across the map. If you keep screwing over a certain thing, the next one has a squad, then a couple walkers, then an apc, then a tank/helicopter escort and so on. At some point the road can become dangerous for you. I think they could have had some more things to blow-up/sabotage, destroy the food stores then steal the new delivery and increase moral at MB. Have some rare random events on the radio, a couple of hostages are being transfered between x and x for execution. High stakes, save them for x reward.

If I could steal the weekly fuel convoy it would be accompanied by 15 tanks and 12 helicopters by now. Challenge accepted.

Of course this is the first time Kojima has done anything like this and it's fantastic, so this makes me think man.. what would MGS6 be like with this as the new foundation. Imagine if Kojima decided to incorporate his own take on a Mordor style nemesis system in the next one? Oh well.
