I mean, sure.
I've played over 100 AAA titles on my ps4 since 2013 and never heard or experienced crashes where I thought my ps4 died until Anthem
Completely. Happened a few times and definitely thought my Pro was dying and I'd need a replacement.
Preach. AC Origins opened my eyes (ears? =P) to her, and I think she has an amazing future. I may have skipped buying Anthem for a while, but I've had the OST playing for hours already.
So it has promise if EA and BW keep updating and sorting out the issues. I expecting a grumpy and jaded review from GiantBomb but some of the areas I agree with but at least they end it with the idea what it could join D3, Destiny etc.
Some days, I wonder if AAA publishers have some super secret option of skipping cert. Is there an indie title on PS4 or XB1 that regularly crashed to "rebuilding database" / SCANDISK / whatever?
Agreed. It seems BW actually want to improve Anthem. Not so much for Fallout. That is dead dead.
Ironically I think 76 will be the easier to fix of the two. That game has mostly server and content issues, while Anthem will always be plagued with loading screens, flight ceilings, and (short of a complete redesign) UI issues.
Problem is, will people be still playing by then? Isn't the next big content update in May? Let's hope EA remains patient with this one despite the reviews and potential lack of mtx purchases.
Probaby, luckily it's fun to play. But the carrot on the stick is just not there for me but I know it will be, in time.... eventually
Destiny scored a 3/5 on GB, so that part I'd call pretty consistent.
Sure, but what I'm saying is D2 was a far better game than D1 when it launched. Anthem, on the other hand, is way closer to a D1 with a whole lot less features and content.
I can't get over the force shutdown thing. Like, I know certification isn't meant for games running like shit or being buggy, but that's absolutely, 100%, something that should cause a certification fail.
"Review games after day 1 patch but before day 2 patch". Not saying thats what you were suggesting but its just funny how complicated it was to find a period to review this game-even when its clear it never mattered at what point anyone reviewed it at, results were always going to be the same.
What? No. It was a comment on "Why Cert no find crash?"
I know I'm just saying its funny that depending on when you play this game your experiences with its bugs could be completely different. Which is why I said I know you werent actually saying that, its just funny that everyone's experience with the technical problems can differ so wildly depending on what patch version youre on.
Destiny 2 was hugely problematic. It is leaps and bounds better than anthem. Destiny 2's problems were its end game, which is why most reviews were glowing since they didn't really appear until 30-40 hours in. Anthem's problems are evident when you boot up the game-in addition to end game. Unless I'm misunderstanding the conversation here.
Ah, gotcha. Yeah, it is really weird like that. Especially with how patches are actually making some things worse for some players. It's just bizarre all around.
Not super surprising. The main thing Brad (and plenty other people) always mentions when talking about Destiny is how fun the shooting is. Anthem doesn't really compare on that aspect.
I actually really like the combat. It's what keeps me playing at the moment. It's just the shooting aspect isn't anywhere close to Destiny.
Visually 76 will always be janky. Bethesda games always have been, but have still been loved despite that. NPCs are an easy fix with content, since the engine obviously supports them right out of the box. It's literally just a content issue, and server stability.
