@LazyLombax Trackmania has never been released on consoles. Trackmania Turbo is casual game which didnt last long. Trackmania Stadium is main game in series and till now only PC got it.
@KundaliniRising333 Maybe try to watch their latest stream. Because experience Buff is free tier rewards for all players and are tied to progression level in game. Skipping tiers at first lvl doesnt give any buff, only cosmetics. Before you state facts, maybe double check.
Lets go! 8,99£/9,99£ per 3 months season would be acceptable for long term support of this game with decent evolution with extra Story bits with every season. Probably some paid expansion could be expected after 1 year, that Paladin or something similar.
No, would not be interested. Revised design will come with 2x USB Type C ports, 1x extra for that detachable disc drive. I would not want to constantly swap between disc drive and ps4 games external SSD. But that means we will have OG PS5 design in long run Only 1st +-40 millions PS5 with outdated design
There should be custom option to choose to show average review score without 0/10 and 1/10. Let them rant, but give option to bypass such ridiculous reviews.
@Constable_What till then maybe they can change. At first I thought Self revive bundle would be somehow "Okay" deal for Solo players, but DMZ is so bad for SOLO players, that those perks will exploit 3 man squads, and I stopped playing DMZ soon after launch of season 2. So yeah, I waste my time watching Westie with Stodeh occasionally. They can rule dmz without any of those upcoming bundles
They are giving 3 slots for each, and want to make some money by selling 4th slot, but to make that deal slightly lucrative, they give some mediocre bonuses. And those bonuses could be wiped put in 5 minutes after spawning in game or swapped for better gear 5 min later.
@Northern_munkey But there will be free tiers. Same as other games battle pass. Everything can be for "free", but sadly business is all about to make as much as possible. If I would have my own business, I wouldnt work for "free".
But okay, lets see how bad it will be whenever 1st season will drop. And battle/season pass is like "cheap", question for me, how expensive will be future expansions.
@Northern_munkey Really Warzone best stuff is for free? Dont need to buy season pass for good skins? DMZ doesnt need to pay again to unlock 4th operator slot in season 3? Doesnt need to buy full game to unlock 4th faction?
How well was D3 taken to community as game? I assume D4 will be multiple times bigger/popular in long run.
None of large MMO type games are free to play, not really. And Blizzard has huge plans for D4 to run for years to come.
Battle pass was stated would be cosmetic mainly. And to put 70£ into game is okay. But then for devs to ask another around 40-50£ per year for cosmetics is so bad? Dont want cosmetics, just dont buy it. But to expect for game to generate consistent content for years, it has to be monetized.
I will wait till upcoming expansions will be sold selerately, there will be another wave of negativity xD
I am old, and I think, if I am putting 300-400-500 or even more hrs per year towards one game, maybe it deserves some extra support from my wallet if I am seeing something I like.
@scoobdoo Same type of players whoare dissing Diablo 4 because it is not Diablo 2 1:1 copy. Old players, who had original AC games st their peak of gaming and now they have nostalgia about good old times. At the end of day mega gaming companies are looking for more raw numbers and open world games sells better that niche games.
I am not super hard fan of Diablo, but game franchise interests me. I liked D2R in general, but after that I tried D3, and that gameplay pulled me in. At that point D2R had more interesting skill tree system and D3 had Combat gameplay. And now Diablo 4 smashed those 2 features together and I am super hyped for game. Ordered Deluxe version. And if I count 18% discount on Shopto gift cards and Stars Rewards system 4% rebate, then Deluxe version cost me around 71£. Great game and super discount, I am all in. See you in June. Hype train keeps rolling
@stvevan and? Year Pass comes with 90£ already. If you want that special premium pack for 15£, that is your choice. But season pass value isn't 40£. Its value is 30£. That guy doesnt bothers to check real prices, and you didnt bother to read about what I am saying.
@PaperAlien why? 4x battle passes for 30£ if buying that edition 89,99£, if 1 year pass covers 4x Seasons. It is not expensive if compared to other games.
@Member_the_game No problem. Trackmania will celebrate 20 years this year. Turbo was more fun version of game. But it is cool to get Trackmania 2 on consoles.
@ItsBritneyB_tch But as game moves towards Free to play release, season pass gives back 80% of Moonstones. Daily Moonstones are raised to 50. They have to monetise game. Not only to develop games, but Disney is very expensive company, they need their share. Thats the reality, you dont earn millions and billions from f2p games via cheap microtransactions.
Yeah, same it appeared around 09:55 on website. Went live 09:59. It was still available at 10:20, but didnt checked when it sold out. Probably very limited amount of those.
In general I wanted Black controller in long run, and this design on black sold me straight away. Next week it should arrive
@NateGoesLive Doesn't Sony Direct requires to sign in with PSN account? I dont see how would scalpers manage to have field day if it would be with sign in.
And how many accounts have been inactive for longer period of time? Maybe I didnt understand something, but that would be strange if company wouldnt get new accounts on regular basis. And high % number of "New" PS5 accounts is maybe because of lot of PS4 ownerd cant easily upgrade to PS5. Lots of smaller, non region countries, aren't able to get enough PS5 from official RRP sellers. For example I am coming from has Sony branch, waiting list has been for over 1 year since release of PS5 of couple thousands at each given time beeing in queue
You guys are Joke. Why would any company create product at loss? Retailer needs a cut, tax man needs a cut and CDPR want to get little bit. If you dont need it then dont buy it. But this crying is so childish. At digital alone platform taxes 30%, tax takes away 20% in most of World, so CDPR gets at best 50%. It is even less with physical copies. And per usual physical copies will lose their value very quickly anyways
@Would_you_kindly So you use 1080p TV and say that new games are looking same as older games? When nowadays 4k is everywhere? Your comments value about gaming visual experience dropped down
If you want to enjoy games truly, then switch to QD Oled. Sony model is very expensive, but Samsung same panel is lot more affordable. Your eyes will be surprised.
@UltimateOtaku91 yes, i can agree. I tried it out and I didnt liked it. Every screen pushes mtx, killing all vibe about Fallout mood for me. And that subscription Tier 1 or how it is called is ridiculous. 99£ per year.
