To no one's surprise, Metro Exodus flops badly

Metro Exodus
>Xbox gameplay chart
thats you're issue
>xbox
okay but post the steam charts now
I mean i would be surpirsed if xbox players even new about metro.
heh
expecting big numbers?
steamcharts.com
my only complaints are the lack of weapon variety (LL had even more) and the fact that you get showered with ammo COD style
Glad I pirated it
It was more of a PC focused franchise anyway, that's why the EGS exclusive was pretty much a death knell for the franchise
The devs can enjoy their future on Consoles
>LL had even more
Oh no
>steam
>expecting an immersive atmosphere driven FPS to sell well on consoles
All my normie friends just back Apex and CoD4 Remaster.
Shifting away from the PC market that made them and going exclusive to Epic was just about the most retarded thing they could do.
misisn out on good graphix and big tiddy GFs
I hope you didn't miss out on the impregentation minigame
But i had 10 something weapons by the end of the game, plus they're all customizable, you can turn a pistol into a sniper etc. I dont remember LL having more weapons.
does Exodus have more creative guns that also feel good to use? All I ever wanted to use in 2033 was the revolver and duplet because they felt amazing and the quad duplet in LL
LL had 15
>awful voicework
>awful sfx when interacting with anything
>having to hold down keys to interact with shit
>sound and animations often go out of sync
>desert and forest zone suck ass
>retarded bear fight
>final boss fight is a qte
At least the graphics look ok I guess. At least when you don't get shitty low res sky textures ruining everything
>>final boss fight is a qte
are you fucking serious?
the final boss of LL was a QTE. They lost the slav magic somewhere between original 2033 and LL, redux ruined 2033, the jank and autism that made it wonderful is dead, polished to death to try to appeal to the mainstream console kids
>final boss fight is a QTE
there is no final boss you retard.
That stupid monkey im the end might as well be the final boss. Even if all you have to do is mash e. Its not like that fuckimg bear fight is any better.
Yes, and unlike any other "final boss is a qte" here you only mash one button.
Why did you not turn the QTE's off in the options.
Does that change the fight?
you can't turn them off, you can only change hold/press/mash
T. Lonelyfag.
Why the fuck is the protag silent ingame but fucking narrates the loading screen text? Why the fuck does the game end after novosibirsk? You get the medicine and then you just get to watch the cutscene showing you made it.
A redux is going to probably be released next year or so, why would I buy the unfinished version now?
The bear fight and all of Taiga was utter shit, but don't sit there and say HURRR THE FINAL BOSS IS A QTE when there quite literally is no final boss.
>2 weeks before release
>"Uh oh we're taking our game to epic store. But if you preorder in the next 6 hours you get to keep your copy :^)"
>days later
>by the way it's just a 1 year timed exclusive
Except I missed that fact later on and got jebaited into dropping $60 for what is barely a $10 Metro game. I loved the first two and wanted this one on Steam. By the time I learned it was coming back to steam in a year, I was already halfway through this shitty game. Congratulations, you fuckers got me.
I want it, but I still have the first two game on my backlog
Why is the bad ending so much fucking cooler than the good ending? God damn, I wanna play Metro: Afterlife now and fucking take back death from whatever loser bandits have set up shop there now.
Fine, the final fight is a shitty qte, but it's not a boss fight as if that somehow makes it better.
Play them, user. They're fantastic games. Then just pirate this one or wait for it to be $15 on Steam.
Just don't play the redux versions.
It's a QTE that happens midway through a cutscene. I'm not saying it's good, but you're going way out of your way to paint it as something it's not.
>new
what a faggot
What's the bad end?
play them and listen to this anons
you won't regret it
Exodus wasn't very good.
Nowhere near as good as 2033 and still better than last light.
look at this faggot, didnt play on ranger. what a fucking scrub.
I might start it up soon, but these people got me concerned
I already have the redux versions. What's so bad about it?
There's no fucking reward in the game. There's no point raiding a camp because you'll probably end up with the same amount of ammo that you went in with or even less. Equipment and ammo gets taken in between levels because they were lost or spent in the months inbetween. You get randomly jumped by mutants and have to use all your ammo to defeat.
Am I? I said it was a shitty qte bossfight, you say its a cutscene with a qte in the middle. That is practically the same thing. I guess its not reaĺly a bossfight since the monkey is exactly the same as the others you see in the hospital. Also someone had to model the tiny gorilla dick.
>a little over 10k
Oh no bros you told me it would sell well on pc...
Inb4 muh epic store
2033 Redux is abosulte shit that loses a lot of the atmosphere, lighting, and pyshics. It's shat on rightfully so. However LL redux is really good, it just gets shat on by Yea Forums by nature of following 2033.
Play the original 2033, then LL Redux.
Also just a heads up for if you do play 2033 soon.
Buy filters for your mask every time you're in a town, or else you're going to have a bad bad time end game. If you do stock the fuck up on filters though you can take all the time in the world you need.
The only good parts were the ones that were like the previous metro games(moskow,bunker in the desert,novosibirsk). The open world is shitty because looting through a generic house 50 times sucks compared through wandering an actually designed level.
leave us alone and go back to fucking playing stalker oldfag they're still better games tbf[/spoiler
>flops
Well it turned on the user base that has sustained it since its birth. Over 90% of the sales came from PC and they did this bait and switch on Steam. Wouldn't have so much controversy if they released it on Epic from the start, doubt it would have made much money there though.
It's a decent AA game but this user is right. Characters are really likeable.
>too much focus on interaction/immersion BS
Even opening and closing the goddamn lighter takes ages, it's like a retard that has to go through the motions or else they forget motor functions and not a highly skilled superhuman soldier
>boat sections are shit especially a huge chore in the last level
>still feels clunky overall
>xbow goes through shitty hitboxes at long range
Although there's really no final boss or actual boss fights at all.
>my only complaints are the lack of weapon variety
Yeah, honestly most people seem to carry xbow for sneaking and ashot for mutants. The other guns feel underwhelming.
I found a single postcard in my playthrough. And it was not like I was not exploring, am I blind?
pretty good for preorders only
I thoroughly enjoyed the game and am glad it exists, I don't get it why I should care about sales as customer. A lot of good studios went down and a lot stayed afloat, that's just the way of it.
Did they fix the hitbox? Played the previous games on release and headshots do jack shit with mutants.
yeah, headshots work on mutants now
>defending nu-metro
I didn't get far in it before I got really bored.
It succeeding will set a very dangerous precedent.
defending the broken mess stalker is worse. and by broken I do not mean bugs, it's just unfinished game with series of design problems they had to try and fix with incompetent leftovers when 4A core left GSC.
I've never played on anything but Ranger Hardcore, but headshots on mutants have always been one hit kills for me on mutants.
Of course that's different though for armored enemies. You only get get guaranteed headshot kills on them if it's the VVS/Bulldog or Hellsing/Crossbow.
Honestly just pirate it. It's a good game, but not nearly as good as the original or LL, and the bugs alone keep it from being a $60 game. Epic Chinks did us all a favor.
>I didn't get far in it before I got really bored.
sound like (you) problem.
Nah I was talking about the game during release date not the Redux remake. Everything had to be center massed back then.
Good to know, might be worth a try now.
It would be cool to see an expansion where you go back to Moscow and on the way visit some of the previous sandboxes and things are different depending on how you played before. I want to see Alyosha get back with his big tity GF
openly admitting it's not what either of us want (and was never gonna be) =/= defending it, user, LL and Redux did perfectly fine in terms of what they first set out to do.
I dont know how can anyone like it after 2033 and LL. They literally added in far cry like shit just to appeal to mainstream niggers then they fucked it up by going exclusive on epic games store. Also i dont know if exodus story is based on books or if its made by devs but holy fuck its bad. Especially the endings. Sure its fun for people who love stalker but for people who like metro for metro its lacking.
I just ran into the damir bug at the caves, I don't know if I have enough fucks to restart the chapter. I really want to like this game but it's movie game bullshit is so inane, everyone has a book of inane shit to say to you non-stop, and now I can't progress because I was exploring instead of hugging damir's ass.
Serves them right for pulling off Steam.
WHO IS BEST BRO? ANSWER ME Yea Forums
sound like you got button masher syndrome, they got interesting things to say
Anyone else feel like Exodus lost a lot of the charm of Metro, not only because they went open world and lost the handcrafted atmosphere, but because they left the politics of the metro entirely?
The whole war between the Nazis, Commies, and Capitalist was so interesting and grasping with the way people were just repeating the same mistakes that lead them to being trapped in the metro.
only mainstream niggers like metro for metro you fucking autist, everyone who loves 33 and finds it kino just wishes it was better Stalker
they went on to another side of politics with slavery, fanatics and tribalism
I find it equally interesting, specially because its all real right now.
>steamcharts.com
11,942 preorders. Not bad considering less and less people preorder these days unless they know for sure it's a game they'll buy anyway.
Metro is a great series and I look forward to buying it next year. I don't preorder and I don't regret the carpet being pulled out from under me, because the way I see it it's a years worth of patches and optimizations
Is there such thing as Epic Store sales chart?
Nah, the story is straight garbage, even worse than the books which is already YA tier.
In the books Artyom discovers that the government survived, is in a military bunker in Moscow, and is controlling all the factions of the metro to wage a controlled war to keep the population in check until they have a plan to repopulate the surface. It ends with him and Anna leaving and driving to another city to spread the message.
In the game we got cartoon cannibals and fish worshippers.
>the jank and autism that made it wonderful
>polished to death
>i-it's good because it's broken, g-guys!
t. literally todd howard
S O C I E T Y
Wtf are you talking about? You can't even button mash to end conversation in this game, people just ramble for hours until you move away from them, i give characters 10min on average to say whatever new shit they got to say after each objective and they just prattle. And damir didn't break from button mashing he broke because I didn't follow his every exact step to the fucking ledge.
No. That russian faggot will never allow it.
>In the game we got cartoon cannibals and fish worshippers.
you just don't know russia at all, that's the real things here.
What the hell happened to the pre-war ammo being used as currency? That was an iconic feature of both Metro books and games.
I get that, but those sides have been explored in every apocalypse movie and game since the 70s. Metro was unique in it's story and settings. And instead of Nazis and Commies fighting each other in a never ending stalemate in a subway tunnel, we got.... Mad Max.....
>only mainstream niggers like metro for metro you fucking autist
Talk for yourself and go play stalker with mods for the 1000th time.
I get you but at the same time the characters are decently written and you get to tell them apart.
Some of the radio chatter are interesting especially since it's based on your actions from the previous level.
There's also the young kid calling for his dad's status report,a colonel, you meet the kid later in the last level
>12k pre-orders are fine
Two of the previous games had more
steamcharts.com
steamcharts.com
note, none of these are redux.
I want to wife Anna
you forgot waifu simulator to tug on the lonely neckbeard heartstrings
yeah that too, fucking nearly whole game is focused on anna that i didnt care about
Given that it was removed from steam and people also refunded pre-orders because of it?
I am really not shocked
he's autistic and can't actually talk to people
his whole crew is so open with liking him because he's essentially a special needs kid who needs constant reassurance that people don't hate him
it was removed from steam a month before release so its not substantial
Plus, a fucking 2010 game with barely any marketing and budget got 14k while exodus barely broke 12k. That's a disappointment
Add to that there's literally no reason to preorder a digital game on a digital marketing place. People wait for reviews.
I would have bought the game on Steam because I love the series, but because of chink fuckery I sailed the high seas instead.
>an entire month before release means nothing
>people refunding means nothing
>giving people 24 hour notice to pre-order or not means nothing
>game barely advertised prior to removal of steam
TOP
KEK
what the hell happened to the Dark Ones?
They just suddenly forgot about them, they pretty much told Artyom that life on the surface was now possible and they were coming back to save them.
I pirated it too. Honestly the free daemon tools came with more junk than the pirated game.
They got blown up
>get woke, go broke
when will they learn
There's hints of them in game. And during the last mission, many believe it was the Dark Ones who were leading you to the medicine and helped Miller find you.
What the fuck even is "metro for metro" faggot, because literally only the first game matched up to your dreams and those are just what stalker would've been even fixed up. I nonironically still dip into LL and the Reduxes for some casul fun but I honestly don't know what you're expecting.
>xbox
lmao
you're using that term wrong
One on hand I'm glad they dropped the Dark Ones because the game always handled it poorly, but on the other it just feels like they dropped it entirely because they know they fucked it up.
At least in the books after the events of 2034 it established that the Dark Ones were going to find a new place to rebuild then return for Artyom and the people of the Metro.
Shit, maybe Miller wanting to be buried in the habitable valley was them leading Artyom there too
ironically this means microsoft will buy 4a games
>broke
>adjective (INFORMAL)
>1.
>having completely run out of money.
>"many farmers went broke"
maybe you should have spent daddy's college money on books instead of sjw crap
Older games had way more, the customization in Exodus sucks complete dick and half the weapons are useless
the phrase refers to companies that try to appeal to liberal-minded communities in order to sell a game
they did that, though
Exodus was pulled early. I still think the preorder numbers for Exodus are pretty good all things considered.
Majority of players don't preorder anymore. Almost no reason too.
...
you killed them lol
every metros prob god their own population though and you didn't dedicate any real time to the one you find in the end. The local dark ones prob are the reason you didn't die and guided you to the medicine in the end. We'll prob see them in the next game when it turns into a first person xcom game when they go global looking for survivors and then after that they go to space and then basically you ever seen gurren lagann?
they didn't
>every metros prob god their own population
It's highly implied in LL that Dark Ones are government-created super soldier prototypes
youtube.com
They're real BLYET!
You can seriously knock up anna?
It's good, a gamer's game. People complain about battle royal but don't support real shit. Idk
Was pulling it off from Steam 2 weeks before release why it sold badly on PC
>if you don't support battle royal you should support shittier business practices that have much more negative impact on the industry than random gameplay fads
It's a good middle market game.
they make babby in the "bad" ending to LL, implied that you impregnated her in the sex scene in that game
That's not 12k pre orders, that's peak players
PUBG sold 40mil on PC & had a peak of 3mil players, Yea Forums logic it only sold 3mil
Agreed. Besides the mid-game desert and forest slog, the rest of the game, and especially the last level, were classic metro and I would even say better in some regards. Rarely do you find a price of entertainment based on books that follow, or are at least inspired, by them that well.
Its a really good game. Shame they had to do this exclusive bullshit
>Majority of players don't preorder anymore
you fuking wish
Just beat the game, it was actually really boring and the story was kinda shitty. But it had good interaction with side characters, decent animations, decent atmosphere, and some cool moments sprinkled throughout the game. I'd give it a solid 7/10
it gets bonus points for having good looking women with jiggle physics
singleplayer games are always low on that kind of lists
>xbox charts
Xbox is less used platform for multiplatz. According to uk alone, exodus launched 50% better than Last Light
pcgamesn.com
>Not bad considering less and less people preorder these days
It's amazing what kind of shit you retards make up just to cope with the fact a game you like flopped.
>exodus launched 50% better than Last Light
Last Light also wasn't on PS3
>boring
Wtf is this opinion about this game? They hit some weird note with Exodus, generic enough to bring in CoD and Battlefield players but obscure enough to make them feel uneasy. The true middle ground between Halo and Stalker.
I've played the other games too user, idk what else to tell you other than they're boring games. The main appeal of them for me is the atmosphere.
Where is this from?
>nonlinear Metro game
Is every fucking game from here on out going to be open-world now?
well I mean it was logical from a lore standpoint
what are you gonna do use a currency accepted only in the metro and may as well not exist out of it as a result because people used it up?
and with whom were you gonna trade?
your own squadmates who share the same provisions and equipment as you under military conditions and not market ones?
i opened the cages on the ship in the caspian sea and the nigger just sits there in his cage and doesnt move or say anything
nope, just the ones you like
Half the levels are linear. I think there are only 3, out of the 9 missions which are semi open.
>pirate it yesterday
>play for an hour
>remember why i never replayed other metros
Fuck me its boring. Also i love how artyom speakes in the loading screens but is a mute fuck otherwise.
Pretty much only Volga and Caspian Sea are truly open world. Taiga is open world for bits, but it is mostly linear or open world in the sense of a level in Crysis.
Meh just got done playing LL and that hand ammo out like candy there too on ranger with survivor on.
Isn't LL redux exactly the same as OG LL except with the DLC bundled in?
Yes.
Play 2033 original then play LL Redux.
Khan, Miller, Eugine and Uncle Bourbon welcome you to the steam train of the afterlife.
>Spiders part
>Only used my lighter and NV
>No time to be scared because I'm so frustrated at what I'm doing
>Questioning wether I missed something or Im just a brainlet
>Managed to finish it without using flashlight
For some reason my flashlight wouldnt turn on since I arrived in Caspian. Is this part of the story? wtf? Or the first time entering the van fucked it up for some reason.
>my flashlight wouldnt turn on since I arrived in Caspian
Had that bug at least two times, but fixed by reloading an older save.
Do you cucks know what the flashlight needs to be charged when it runs out of battery? The key to turn the flashlight on PC is F and you hold F to take out the charger.
Same with the nightvision.
Pathetic shilling desu
I know. I can charge the NV but I also cant turn the NV off. It got fixed when I entered the car though.
Probably has to do with the car's light.
This is what publisher's greed leads to. The could've been on GOG and Steam so it can get the maximum exposure, instead the retards got tricked by Chink scraps. Fuck them.
It's a bug, retard
Did you change your gear? The longer battery/heat vision upgrades remove the charger.
I wouldn't want to be you. But then, I would be so stupid I probably wouldn't care if I were.
>Cuckbox gameplay charts
Meaningless considering the Xcuck tendency to not buy or play games. PC and PS4 performance will be more indicative.
well done metro, at least you tried.
I changed it to longer battery and it was still working until I went to Caspian.
It's working now though.
This will either be shit or it wont come out at all
Are you telling me people only use the Epic launcher because it's mandatory for Fortnite and not because they're looking for a new digital storefront?
