I started MGS3 just to play along with drew. I've never played any of the MGS series and was hoping for Scanlon to help me start off. Are they really not going to do the third game after doing the first two?
Does anyone have a link to the video on youtube that talks about how Jeff's cat doesn't have a name because "It's not going to come when you call it." I think it was when they were talking about Max's name before it was max. Like Rex or something. Searched for a while and couldn't find it.
Yeah, most the stories this year were fairly flat in my opinion. There are a few that stick out which were nice but I never saw any this year that made me go WOW.
Yeah, not at all. In fact I want them to go a lot further on the premium. Right now about 50% to 60% (it seems, no actual numbers here) of the content I like to see is premium. I'd like to see that number closer to 75% but then again I really like the quick looks, reviews, podcast ( I choose to play the non-premium version because the ads get them more money and I like what they say in them. ), unfinished and other videos. Honestly the things that should stay free in my opinion are the quick looks, podcast and reviews. Pay wall everything else if they want. Just keep premium at 60 dollars max per year and I am happy.
On this video http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/coffee-tastes-better-on-mondays-12-01-2014/2300-9754/ around 22 minutes in Patrick says he talks on AIM. Now, I am not bashing him for talking on AIM but I want to know if people still use the service. He is talking about AOL Instant Messaging right? I remember using it a lot when it was newer. Around the early-mid 2000s but I thought social media/skype/facebook/twitter/gmail had all replaced and of course all have their own private instant messaging systems. So do people use AIM still?
How about "insert snarky proposition", then "insert real desired goal".
This is really cool Ubisoft, I've not seen a response like this from a publisher, ever.
EA does it a lot. I mean I had issues because I bought the ME3 trilogy while I had the first 2 games on steam but not origin and thought the trilogy came with more DLC than it did. (It didn't make it clear what was in the package before I bought it.) While it took them 1 month to get me a refund when their system states 10 days. I ended up getting like 4 games for free, The first 2 dead spaces, bulletstorm, Shank 2 and Crysis 3. All because I kept messaging EA support for status reports and they must have had something in their support book that said if they are asking for a refund, give them a free game and hope they forget about the refund. In the end they also gave me ME1 and 2 on origin as well.
Additionally EA did some of the same stuff after simcity, giving away games for people who were upset at support.
So while this sort of action isn't very common, they are pulling pages from the right books imo. At least they aren't acting like steam support. "No refunds, all sales final unless it's a pre-order." Even then takes a week and a half to get an initial response sometimes.
And thrice-ly, moi. The dominant opinion shared across most mediums is that, currently, Ubisoft's words are not to be trusted at this point in time.
The says who argument is probably the weakest one I've seen against an opinion piece. Not only does he cite 2 issues within this month but he simply it stating his opinion there. The company hasn't earned back that trust. And that is true for most people. If its not true for you then don't just be like "PSH your opinion doesn't match mine!" say something like Ubisoft recently earned my trust back with... Be constructive and create strong statements that someone, anyone, could stand behind. Of course if you just want to reply with another "says who? you?" no one here is stopping you and would work much better in response to this comment than the article.
