@Nepp67 It was apparently addressed, but I just played a match in "The Pit" and it was still pretty bad.

Hopefully they will sort it out in time.

Lap it up (fan)boys

@Cheese661

Okay

10 out of 10 as I am in it, kind of

Seriously though. It's a ground breaking game with some parts of it that just blew me away.

HUGE BOAST HERE.

Some of you mocked me for saying that my friend is a developer on the Northlight Engine, well, it turns out that said friend included me in the "End Credits".

End of boast.

The greatest moment in all my years playing games.

@LordBakemono chuckle

@TripleKing333

And I quoted Xbox, so what does the Playstation have to do with it?

Besides, the fact that it can fit on a PS5 Bluray, doesn't diminish the fact that everything else I said makes it a good decision to go "Digitally".

I like how you went out of your way to prove me wrong on the PS front. Bravo.

Digital only is also a lot less risky, since you won't be sitting on a huge amount of physical copies of the game if the game sells below expectations. If that happens, retailers will also push the price down due to the huge supply, meaning the publisher and developer make even less.

In addition, digital games don't have to compete for shelf space in the same way physical games do, meaning it's also less risk. This in combination with the above allows for more risk taking and more niche games to be made.

Less environmental impact as well.

Physical games usually don't even come with the game itself these days, just a key to download it, due to the Xbox Series X being limited to single layer blurays (50 gb max). If the disc was to contain the actual game, you would have to put in multiple discs, which is monumentally more expensive in terms of SKU costs but you also have to develop the game in such a way where the disc split makes sense, so most people don't bother.

And if they do bother, it'll have a massive day 1 patch anyway.

No point in physical games whatsoever.

Well I would say as the game got a 10 out of 10 on Gamespot, and they very rarely give out those scores, despite them being them, I would maybe suggest that the problems that arise are insignificant compared to the whole package.

What game is perfect?

Would scare the crap out of me if I had my back to it, turned around and saw Venom learning at me with those teeth.

Excellent stuff

Is this available on physical? 🤔

Haha. Is that punk a Keith Flint wannabe?

@Flaming_Kaiser I never played any of these games until the last one, not seriously anyway. So these will be new to me.

Thanks

I'm useless at this game, but I do enjoy it.

See how it pans out over the weekend, beta wise.

Edit: just read that it comes with 16 maps at launch.

@Grimwood Probs at 4.00pm BST along with other platforms

@Sequel Ahhhhhhhhhhh, the 4 o'clock release plan.

Much obliged sir

This is killing me. Why can't I buy it haha?

No sign of it anywhere.

I am so so excited for this game.

When will it become available to purchase? It's been ages now since I have had it on my Wishlist haha

@SystemAddict

Dang. What a pain in the backside.

Hope you get it sorted soon

I doubt it will happen, but I can live in hope, but it would be nice if they maybe game Alien Isolation 2 a go.

I know, I know. I can dream though, can't I?

2fa on everything where ya can

Downloading again as I never finished the campaign first time around.

Star Wars: Battlefront II - 4899
Star Wars: Battlefront - 1443
Alien: Isolation - 107

@IrishNomad

I've been doing a lot of research in the last 48 hours haha.

Thanks very much good sir

@Vonburk

Thanks very much for the detailed reply.

More than answered what I needed to know.

Thanks again

Would seriously love to have one of these but I'm one of the unfortunate souls who suffer with the dreaded rainbow vision when watching a projector.

Does this suffer from that at all?

THIS GAME WILL BE AMAZING!!!

True story, my friend was at university, got a scholarship at Remedy, got offered a full time job there and is now working on the engine for this game and others.

@BusyOlf hope it is for ya mate.

Don't have vr, but that would scare me you know what haha

Alien Isolation 2

That is all

First time I can honestly say "Dang, I just bought PGA Tour 2K23".

Typical haha

@get2sammyb I just don't like the idea of the weapons being carried over.

I am in my 50's and the very reason I play this game is to unlock all the guns and get them to max level.

I usually discard it after a 4-5 month period once all of that is done, as I don't enjoy the game as much because it becomes a bit of a bore for me.

Hopefully we will have the option to start fresh, as if we didn't purchase MWII.

Cheers

I grew up in the late 70's and 80's and I can honestly say that I will never experience film going like it was back then.

When films we're announced then, Star Wars, Raiders, Back to the Future, Ghostbusters, Indy and so on, we had a legitimate reason to get excited, but seeing a film like this being announced with the cast it has, means absolutely nothing to me.

I know its an age thing and all that, but honestly, I just wish we had a good reason to look forward in the movie world.

@Buckeye4Life2015

Yeah I agree, it's just that I still have all the consoles going back to the PS1, so if I wanted to play the older games, I'd boot them up.

I think it's a first impression thing too. Just human nature I guess.

Probably the poorest selection since the service started, for me anyway.

Pre-ordered this, so glad it worked out, thanks.

Will play it tonight after work.

The last 3 years since this was released has flown by.

I feel so old haha and this game, if true they're doing motion capture for it, will probably be out when I am grey and old lol.

I cannot wait for this game. The gameplay looks incredible.

It will literally....CRASH

Sorry

@liamcroft

So what has happened to Playdead, do you know?

I periodically check their website to see if any news has come of the game they announced years ago.

Can't wait for this game. Looks great.

@Gremio108

Brilliant

That was hilarious.

I find it amazing how they come up with all these creative ideas.

Truly amazing

Spoke to a friend of mine who develops games and he said its probably just UE4 bloatware.

If you we're to start a project using the engine and did nothing but save it there and then, that is likely to be a file size of about a gig.

Hopefully though it's a big game with some mind blowing scenes that would justify this file size.

We shall see

I suspect the reason why Resi 3 remake was so underwhelming, is because they put all the their time and resources into this.

And oh boy it shows.

Truly amazing game that will be playable for a long time, for me anyway.

I still believe the only reason Microsoft are going after Activision is because they know Playstation will dominate for years to come on first party titles, so because they can't produce anything remotely close, they do the next best thing.

Pity really, as back in the day they had some solid ips.

Not a surprise really.

The top 2 games have been around much much longer.

The Last of Us Part 3 will be everyone waking up from a dream to retcon Part 2.

aka Dallas and the revival of Bobby Ewing for the older viewers here.

Once I finish work in half an hour or so, I'll be on it.

Looks great.

Phew!!!

Look forward to playing it.
