Gaming / Re: But is Halo 5 really going to die?
« on: November 11, 2014, 12:06:42 PM »

People are crying about new stuff they've had no hands  on with and is also a beta and subject to change.

Literally what everyone said about Halo 4. And before you strike back with your obvious fucking opinion,shut up. No one wants to hear that shit.
343 also misled the public really hard, telling us that they were returning to the arena roots- it was an even bigger step into the class based genre than reach was. We were bamboozled, and we didn't even have a beta. Now, a year before release, we know that we'll have a 3 week beta and we've seen gameplay- true, arena style shooting with an extra combat/movement dimension. It appears to have a high skill cap. I don't know what you're basing your opinions on, but I'm calling you out. Explain to me exactly what the fuck you think happened to halo between 2010 and now.

It looks like a real arena shooter with an entirely new combat dimension. Don't write it off for being different from H1/2/3- unlike reach and 4, this is still fundamentally an arena FPS. It looks highly competitive. Wait until the beta to make your negative judgements.

The exhibition match looked nice. Game seems to have a notable skillcap with the extra movement.

Most of the people who are writing this game off just because of sprint/abilities/smart scope are probably really bad at halo anyway. They won't be missed.

Gaming / Re: Disappointment at Blizzard
« on: November 11, 2014, 11:29:02 AM »

They are not doing something ground-breaking when it comes to Overwatch. Of course, re-inventing a whole genre from the gameplay perspective it's a challenge, and my disappointment doesn't stem from that. However, from their attempt to give hints towards the more traditional Blizzard-style at the same time they are tackling a whole new behemoth.

You can't really compare your stories with video games that have a huge budget, and a big team of people working on. Despite the fact that I like your point philosophically speaking, and perhaps it is also morally correct, it's not simply how it works on a game company which has a legacy, and a huge audience to appeal to, and is torn between who to pick in that audience to give some attention to.

I am also not against supporting Blizzard in this venture; but I am mostly skeptical and disappointed at a new direction that effectively can discard a loyal player base that despite suffering from the different directions that Blizzard has explored with its titles, it has remained there.

There's also some surprise in that. Blizzard is indeed picky when it comes to taking onto new ventures, and it is known to cancel even the most interesting titles and scrapping them altogether. Overwatch made it through that, and maybe it does hold some value beyond what can be perceived besides a few articles online and some teaser and cinematic videos. I am not denying that value, I am not denying the work of the people involved, and I do understand the amount of effort, creativity and time that goes into crafting a video game.

So give them some support, whether it be cheers at their new game, or silent acceptance that as people, they have the right to explore beyond what they are familiar with, and try something new.

Yeah, and effectively the more conservative player base of World of Warcraft was quickly forgotten about, and left to be scattered as the game removed all sort of challenge, and rewards in an addicting manner the most minimal effort. That's the crowd Overwatch will be going for, and it's similar to the crowd Hearthstone went for. It's not necessarily bad, but it's still butchering the fan base.

Also, Diablo III wasn't quality? Are we joking here? Diablo III is an AAA title, and benefits of many things that come with it. Of course, it wasn't perfect, and it had some issues which are a completely different subject to convey, but isn't it too convenient to discard Diablo III and what has happened to it to appeal to the very same crowd that Overwatch is trying to? Why do you think many players jumped ship from Diablo III, and went quickly towards Path of Exile, and in a similar manner many World of Warcraft players left competitive PvP completely or the game?

Blizzard wants to tackle new ideas? That's alright. They can explore whatever ideas they might have, and that's their call, and right to do so. However, doing this at the expense of a fan base which has been loyal to it during the early WarCraft games, StarCraft, and even with early World of Warcraft? That's not fine, it's not simply something that should be acceptable. If they want to wipe their hands off that player base then they should come out and do that instead of subtly hinting some ties with what they have done in the past just for the sake of show and tell.

I love World of Warcraft, and I was immediately drawn to Overwatch. I signed up for the beta the day it was announced, and I can't wait to get my hands on it. Blizzard has always delivered quality content with great community interaction (Diablo 3 notwithstanding,) so I'm more than willing to give them the benefit of a doubt on this one. So what if it doesn't specifically appeal to Diablo, Starcraft, or Warcraft fans? Blizzard is gonna attract a new crowd with Overwatch, and many current Blizz fans will surely play as well. The more the merrier, I say.
I didn't mean to imply that I thought diablo III was bad- the auction house debacle is my only real problem with it, and it was a big issue.

Idk, I think you're overreacting. Just wait for the overwatch beta to develop a strong opinion.

If only they would do away with abilities and sprint all together. . .

One can only dream. . .
as long as there are no loadouts/classes it'll be fine (unless the abilities are retardedly poorly balanced.)

i just really, really hope they mean what they're saying about h5 being an arena fps game. i don't want another arena/class hybrid like reach.
Sprint=not fine. Not fine at all.
sprint was implemented poorly in reach and h4. the devs (especially bungie in reach) had no idea how to balance the maps around sprint. sprint isnt necessarily a bad thing as long as the maps are designed to flow well with the increased movement speed. that being said, i would much rather we remove all "abilities" and keep it h1-3 style- but, if we have to have sprint, it isn't the end of the world.

relax, it's just an aesthetic change to the zoom function. hip fire is still accurate and it doesn't slow you down.

just wait for tomorrow's h5 announcements. 343'll clear everything up for you.

Can't take the quiz. Four ads cover the page. Ad blocker just leaves it grey.
i disabled adblock, went to the "ad covers the page" option, feedback block takes up the same exact space and i cant get rid of it

i dont think taking this shitty playbuzz quiz is worth the effort if i have to deal with this ad crap

It's literally going to play through memory lane from '01 - '14
'01-'14, minus '10-'14 because reach isnt in the collection and h4 is an abomination
