"Waaa! I actually have to play the game to unlock armor!"Did Joe just suddenly forget about Warrent Officer in Halo Reach?
"Waaa! I actually have to play the game to unlock armor!"
Also going to point out that Joe says "If you do good you'll get maybe 900 points per match". I guess Joe's definition of doing good is a .2 k/d because that's what shows up in the background. A normal warzone round for me nets about 2k req points.

A normal warzone round for me nets about 2k req points.It's funny because in his own footage he got over 3000 req points after a game. It's not like he was doing good either

A normal warzone round for me nets about 2k req points.Players that are pulling in 1k/2k a match will still need to clock in 400 odd hours required to complete every cosmetic. Joe explicitly takes a caveat to his playing ability and the capacity to earn req points later in the video. The system is deliberately implemented to have you spend more money than required, which was his entire point. It's predatory, and it's bullshit.I'm not sure why you come crashing into these threads apologetically slogging the corporate phallus and their bullshit business practices. I've seen you do it for Battlefront, and it's honestly just laughable. I wouldn't be surprised if EA kept you on their payroll.But go ahead and continue to hand wave off legitimate grievances with "hurr he's just a bumbling retard that has no idea how the industry works" if you actually want to continue reciprocating the standards that us as consumers shouldn't have to put up with.

It doesn't really matter if he says he's not good later in the video because he's using his ability as a measurement of what a good player would receive at the end of a match while doing his calculation on how long it would take to unlock everything. His calculations are just flat out wrong and he's positing them as 100% irrefutable fact.If I "sucked on the corporate phallus" I'd be defending things like console, region, or pre-order exclusive in game content that has a tangible affect on the game or the practice of cutting up a game and selling cut pieces later for a premium. You know, stuff that actually hurts the consumer.No, a season pass that lets you pre-order DLC for a discout price, map packs, expansions, or any other content that is not developed as part of the base game is not "cutting up and selling pieces later for a premium". Destiny is a prime example of a real case of "disk locked content" as both TDB and HoW contained content that had not only been advertised at E3 as part of the game, but were already 90% ready to go on disc and could be glitched into well before they launched.As it stands the 60 USD (or your regional equivalent) price point for a new AAA game can not support the industry. The price for games has gone down dramatically and the demands of the consumer have risen dramatically. It requires more money to develop a game that consumers are satisfied with for AAA games than ever before so developers and publishers need to diversify revenue in order to stay afloat.If Joe had any "legitimate grievances to hand wave" I can assure you that I wouldn't be the one hand waving them. However as it stands he's just being an entitled crybaby that thinks he's more important and knows much more than he actually does. I mean I really hate using the word entitled to describe someone, but this AAA devs should be giving away everything for free while I refuse to pay a fair price for the type of games I demand mentality can only be described as it.

I mean I really hate using the word entitled to describe someone, but this AAA devs should be giving away everything for free while I refuse to pay a fair price for the type of games I demand mentality can only be described as it.I never posited the notion that Reach was an ultimate paragon for the Halo experience, so I'm not really sure why you keep appealing to it. It too has a horrendously designed ranking system that is predicated on how much time you have on your hands, not the skills you can apply to the game. Except this time with Halo 5 it's stylised in a manner that renders it more appealing to spend money on micro-transactions rather than taking the time (which requires virtually no skills whatsoever) to complete.It doesn't matter if his calculations are off, as he and I have already told you, because the parameters required to complete all cosmetics still remains (3 million req points). Even hardcore uber skilled Halo players are going to have a difficult time being a completionist in less than 300-400 hours. There is nothing 'entitled' about demanding a game not have bullshit exploitative business practices in an attempt to chip away at the player's wallets. Your point about the industry not being able to sustain itself on a heavily customer centric platform for 60 dollars a pop is absolutely nonsensical. CD Projekt Red has managed to do such a thing in TW3 with half the resources of 343 and no big daddy parenting company to keep them afloat either. Your argument is hogwash.
