Iconic puzzle
Really gotta get a party of friends and some resources boosters to figure this one out!
Wait a minute...that card...

All this and the rest of the thread.

I'm sure this won't be a numbered sequel, it just hasn't been officially announced yet so Bioshock 4 is the easiest way to refer to it.
Ah, well if it's a side game based in the same universe then I don't have too much of a problem with it.
Would prefer just an actual new game though.
Please come outside of that tiny ass bubble.
Sony gets ridiculed from some folks for their single player games....

I think this will probably just be called "BIOSHOCK" and will be presented as the next main game in the series.

This always gets me, lmao
the plague continues to spread.. Rocksteady, Bioware, Bethesda, Rockstar, now this.
Soon all the old, highly-esteemed studios will be bowed and broken by the live service disease. All shells of their former selves.

I always wondered, was that puzzle originally more complicated and testers couldn't get past it? Why include a puzzle so insultingly simple.
Rockstar's single player campaigns are still well made, but I feel like it's only a matter of time before their games become pseudo offline MMOs with questionable game design.
I personally detest most live service games, but I'm always open for one to change my mind. A bit bummed they are taking this direction with Bioshock, but without Levine there was already no guarantee the narrative would be any good to begin with. Not like they are scrapping some grand Levine story for this style. Only problem is the worst part of Bioshock (infinitie at least) has been the combat outside of the fun of getting new plasmids to play with. Never got into that pre-Burial at Sea dlc because it was all combat focused, and cant see myself sticking with a Bioshock game purely for gameplay
True, but they've already sacrificed a focus on single player content for MP. We used to get some of the best expansions in the industry with Ballad of Gay Tony, Undead Nightmare, etc. Now they don't make singleplayer DLC period, just more buffalo bucks and shark cards and whatever
What are you talking about? Bioshock Infinite was a smart game for the smartest gamers.
Imagine seeing how every one of these games launches fucked up and then seeing Anthem do it, then see Borderlands 3 not, then going yeah I want one of those
My first reaction upon seeing that title was "of course".
I think I've finally reached the last stage, acceptance.

I am very much looking forward to what they do with this.
For everyone bemoaning the live as service aspect I strongly recommend that they check out Assassin's Creed Odyssey. I only ever finish AC1 and played half way through AC 2 and I was never interested in AC:O until the Uplay+ trial.
But playing AC:O opened my eyes as to just how great live as service/gaas games can be.

It kind of does. I don't see a Bioshock game as a microtransaction/GAAS/or 'experimental walking simulator'-experience in my near future to be honest. :)
Are those live service games or just GaaS?
Because, at least to me, "Live Service" means always-online (required), shared-world (usually), with daily incentives to keep logging on along with regular events.
