@NinjaNicky all new stuff for last couple years is single player possible in Invite only sessions aswell.

@Darude84 expensive? And GamePass is not expensive? There is regular couple of times in year discount. Through shopto its possible to buy Gift cards with extra 13-16% off. It is at the end less than 50% from Game Pass value. Yes, GamePass could have some games better. But if you buy Premium for ps2, Ps1 games? If not, then Extra is way to go...
Stars rewards gives back 4% in store credits for every spent money if you choose to cash out to your wallet those points.
For example, I can upgrade 933 days of Extra to Premium for 35,79£ on BF deal from 51,14£
If I buy gift card, it would cost me roughly 30,42£. Add Stars rewards, it goes down to 28,99£. Magic

@EnragedGibbon it will not be this year. PC VR is planned for next year.

@Jake3103 EA reporting forum is full with this issue. For some it happens by recalibrating ForceFeedBack aswell. But mainly, if you quit, then you start to get minutes advantage.
Another issue is that game tends to bug out if AI DNF. There can be that in case of DNF for AI at stage, that all their previous stage times gets 00:00:00, and then they win event by finishing remaining stages time sum. For example, you could be driving for total 25min in event, and suddenly you see that AI have won event by driving 10-15min in total. These two are for now main issues for Career mode.

This is nice, but still need to wait to fix gameplay bugs. This is more visual patch.
Still there is one big problem, if you quit rally event in Career mode and come back later, then AI is dropped seeminy to 0 AI, tho in settings, nothing changed, till then end of event for all remaining stages. Can't do anything to fix it through settings. That is off putting. It is like drive all rally event stages in one go or better dont drive at all if you dont have time or energy to complete 1hr+ event.

@Jimboss but you know, this is not same company making game? In business perspective why would they work hard and fix everything and do everything much better with Modern Warfare series and not get paid more equally as other company? That would be up to Activision to provide it as dlc, but they choosed not to do that. But you know, ABK will not leave money on the table.

@LazyLombax yeah, who cares that game is launched on EA Play not gamepass. Its small detail that Ultimate Gamepass provides access to EA Play. But it is nice and easy to complain using things out of context.

@dskatter you live in the past. Yes, you can. But you are commenting negative just because it is companies name now. Not because their existing main product would be bad.

@dskatter how are you commenting when DDV is pretty great experience as whole. But judging is easy, no? They have proved that they can create decent game from license.

How you like Pressure system? It feels awful in long run. As soon you dont get puck in 10s+ out of zone, you get pressed. You can't skate, can't get for lune change and they nerfed Dump the Puck too, so you can't even flick puck high and far. Maybe if you play with AI it would feel great to punish it. But in online gameplay that is terrible.

@Vriess but if your closest Sony server is hundreds/thousands miles away, then very likely your uber speed will not matter.

Season 2 is solid. Strong step forward after Season 1. Enjoying game right now, already crossed level 54 today.

I want that PRO. And big titles to implement 4k fidelity mode with 60fps. Take my money

I am at just Level 23 and season 2 feels solid. Nothing yet experienced fully, because "good stuff" grinding starts slowly after 50, but in general everything works. Wibe is still there, lets see how it will go after level 70+

@Ravix it is all about fantasy.
On regular you play Campaign. It has solid story, probably not full price worth.
Once you have done that, you can jump in seasons. Seasons usually you start by skipping campaign. Seasons have their own story, it is significantly less in cutscene and missions, but it gives new backstory.
Game has 5 classes. Each class has mtiple viable builds/playstyles. Seasons gives option to play different class/playstayle everytime + adds some type of new mechanic which makes game more fun/difficult.

Such games in general is not about to build tour character endlessly, this is not regular MMO. ARPG stays "fresh" by changing things more or less in each season.

But like always, that is not game for everyone. And to try it out by buying game, it can bring disappointment, if you would not enjoy such game cycle.

@djlard I would assume you havent seen any of Uber Uniques. Not even saying that now almost all regular Uniques aswell are reworked more or less.

@Zuljaras Diablo yeah, D4 bad. Just delete and never look back.
Its not the curse, thats how game stays relevant for much longer time. And as bad it is, getting real data from players playing game on massive scale is best way to understand what needs work with such games. D4 was released not fully ready, and S2 patch shows it. Now it will be decent start.

@Zuljaras what would need fixing, Outside of Season 2 patch?

I would guess you would post same comment if it was beggining to Diablo 3, that they can't fix it.

You know, they need to bump up quaterly earnings, people are playing less. Need to milk existing players little bit more.

@Landstalker it will be rolled out first with Playstation Direct stores. And UK has that one.

It is what it is. And sadly for some players, I am excited for 2nd season. Changes are promising and game is going somewhere. Lets spin to win next week.

@IslandLogic they are switching to claim, that PS5 Pro will never happen.

@Texan_Survivor exactly. How it can be Slim model if it will be only PS5 model. +1

@YeoSprings it is one model, lol. And exactly it is bundled with disc drive. Those are same consoles - digital.

@Mikey856 exactly. It is already happening. They manufacture only new design. Thats why Old design is on discount for months to sell it out faster.

@freddquadros Will be one year later.

For good stuff in game.
Game is awsome for stats nerds like me. I like to play MyNBA, manager mode and all those historic stats are there, all new stats gets collected too, all awards you can see and new to earn. So much details in that space while my friend EA Fifa/FC does nothing in this regard. I never buy this game on release. Now seems that very likely PS+ could give it third year in a row in next summer. Or I buy when it is 70%+ off. Ultimate team is big no no for me in any sports game

@Darylb88 isnt new update requiring to reply game fully?

@theMEGAniggle it is not strange but smart. You have dedicated Sims 4 players, who have spent lots of money. Lets say Sims 5 comes out empty or is nsot what they like. They will go back to Sims 4 and whats there? There is new shiny pack to buy. As soon Sims 5 will show signs to overtake Sims 4, then they will call it a day. Its smart business. Predatory? Definately, thats why I will not even look towards Sims 5.

Sims 4 was to be paid to play for so many years, and didnt hold back EA to release content which RRP value is over 900£. What does Sims 5 will change with free to download? Bring down price by 30£ and thats all.

@Loamy okay, I am not on that side of gaming, emulations. Maybe there is some secrets which could give some options for you and similar minded people. Lets see what's inside.

@dimi all Sony prices is RRP with included taxes. If stores are selling for more then that is because of extra proffits for seller not taxes.

@Sakai it doesnt. As it is stated, it doesnt even support streaming games without beeing downloaded on PS5.

@GamingFan4Lyf i doubt you can play games outside of same WIFI. Switch is console on its own, this is just display with buttons. Yes, there can be use, but that device is very niche product.

@Loamy games are streamed from ps5 installed games. There is not need for any high power chip in this device. It is just simple screen in general. It doesnt play game it streams it through wifi.

@Ravix why bot? U.S. price is without state sales tax and Europe usually have 20-21% sales tax.

@redd214 cool. Yeah, niche but yeah, it could be very usefull in your case, and it comes with controller "together". Hopefully battery life is decent for one evening sitting. Or at least can be played while charging if happens to play for longer period of time.

@redd214 cool, but why you would stream ps5 in your home? You have some specific situation by not using ps5 with tv/monitor? Just curious "why"

@Loamy Nothing. It is just screen with split controller. Nothing else. You stream your own PS5 through WIFI

@suprnova23 I agree. But it is visible why it has be done. Those Uber uniques are too great for games state atm. I am not trying to defend blizzard, I am trying to say that endgame content is too "weak" for those items and game is not ready. S2 is only small step forward, because Leaderboards are coming only Season 3 with new endgame content, which again could be something not very impressive. I have played Dianlo 4 for 300+ hrs and I am enjoying gamepley/design/atmoshphere but game is dry after reaching WT4. All balls are in one basket - Nightmare Dungeon, which is getting booring quickly

@BaldBelper78 ofcourse. Not to offer better experience for ever evolving technology? TVs/Monitors doesnt stay in same level for 6-8 years. And every product is about money, if product would not make money at the end, products would not exist. Why cant it be both at least? Sony gets money, people get better stuff, Sony can push limits even higher with more income.

@JayJ strange take. Officially there is no news from Sony for that. But how does PS5 Pro is upsetting you?
Your statement is foolish. I would enjoy 4k 60fps with PS5 Pro. But you do you.

@BaldBelper78 How much costs Gamepass per year? How much costs PS Extra per year? How many games have each subs? And which sub is multiple times on discount 25% each year?

I can agree that Xbox Gamepass value is for Day one Xbox releases, but that is not cheap option in long run and finally they are dropping big game in it - Starfield. Bur to say that Gamepass is much better, that is not really objective.

@XboxTheBestBox What supply issues Xbox had?

@Acurisur or simplier is to create more powerful console.

The best thing is that Internet branded it as "Slim" version which it obviously isnt. It is just revised design, which will allow to add detachable disk drive. There will not be seperate design for Disk version and Digital going forward.

@MagisterMagi to insert detachable disk drive and it wouldnt ruin design

And how much PS5 unused performance is left on table with those "lazy devs"? Games on PS5 has to run smooth without cooking ps5 at same time. It is not viable to push console constantly in games 95%+. If you compare PS5 gpu power then it is not close to 4080, but 4070, and that card aswell is not meant for 4k gaming at high frame rates

@Acurisur why you need fsr 2.2 to push upscaled 1440p 60fps to native 4k 60fps?
When 2.2 was released for PS5? Isnt that new technology? Trying to find in web, and that is this years software update. I doubtit is expected that all major games previously released will go for update for that. Your language about lazy Devs seems not fair.

@wiiware like you are avoiding all that I am saying. How 4k 60fps is not pushing to have PS5 PRO? You maybe are satisfied to play 4k 30fps, I am not. I dont get where PRO is such negativity for you as example? Those people who are creating PS5 Pro and next PS6 are not making games. Why are you asking to halt devolepment of hardware, because you think that there is no software. And I am giving valid point to not choose between Fidelity and Performance modes in all 1st party titles but to have it all. PRO model is not mainstream model, regular PS5 will still be main console to buy because of price, but those who strive for better performance like I do, will enjoy PS5 Pro on daily basis.
PS5 catchprashe is Supports 8k, it is same gimmick as you mentioned PS4 Pro 4k support. Knowingly that even PS5 can do only native 4k 30fps.

I would guess, that you would have same view point 8 years ago, when PS4 Pro was rumoured. And you are contradicting yourself with past ps4 pro examples. Because it is in past, you are forgiving to release PS4 pro back then, bet PS5 Pro next year? Big No, No.
