>For those unaware, Sony’s return policy for digital items is typically quite stringent, with the company’s stance on the matter reading that players “can cancel a digital content purchase within 14 days from the date of transaction, provided that [they] have not started downloading or streaming it.” The only instance in which one can be eligible for a refund after using the product is if the tech firm considers the content to be “faulty”.

As of now, there’s no telling just how many PS4 players have been affected by this particular system crash issue via Anthem, but it’s definitely not a bug to be taken lightly. After all, there’s always the possibility of a console getting bricked after being shut down improperly.

Funny.

You think Todd Howard is thinking "Thank fuck BioWare took some of the heat off Fallout 76"?

youre wrong. the economic movement (communism) is highly discredited. thats why they focus on cultural and social justice, then sprinkle in some economic "socialism" and "progressivism" in between.

Why would I play a game that crashes my fucking PS4? I was interested in it but I learned a long time ago to not buy games on release day to avoid stuff like this.

GET WOKE


GO BROKE

Now, with the requisite phrase out of the way, I wish to say that I miss the bioware that was and despise the bioware that is now.

Why do you love hating a game so much? Is it to bring some semblance of joy to your pathetic meaningless lives?

Instead of criticizing so much, do something for yourselves. All this negativity will only pull you down and down until your inevitable suicide at the age of 30 and without ever knowning what love from another woman is.

I am just waiting for someone from BW to actually say that they don't know how to develop video games.

Why is this Bioware's problem and not Sony's? Sony is responsible for the console OS and it's clearly the thing that is at fault here. A game crash should not take down the entire OS. The OS devs failed if that happens.

I'm gonna need a source, this sounds too good to be true

Anthems not even woke, its story is non-existent and it feels like they cut entire arcs out of it.

Like at some point EA walked into the shitshow of bad development and went "this is as good as its gonna get."

With all the devs under NDA no one can talk about what happened and why the game is in this state so it leads people to look into who made the game and pinpoint them as the flaws.

"oh bioware talked to FEMFREQ its their fault" is bullshit, her influence is nowhere in this game and the massive issues stem from basic functionality and game design.

After the failure of Andromeda you would have learnt a thing or two. Instead they probably doubled on being SJWs and told themselves "the fact that our game isn't selling just shows that we are doing the right thing."

Shit gets corrupted the same way shit on your computer gets corrupted if you pull the plug. If the PS4 happened to be writing a file it would get fucked, but seeing as how it's crashing when you try to close the game I doubt it's writing anything.

Nintendo is still loved though.

I was actually referring to Bioware as a whole with regards to woke ideology, although I would say that there are certain amounts of wokeness in anthem if some of the early impressions threads on here were accurate for some of the NPC chatter in the game. Not that it matters all that much, socjus ideology killed bioware and now it's time for the zombified corpse to be put to rest by EA.

My point is that the game is so bad you cant even blame outside influences, its just broken at the core

>discord tranny talking about suicide randomly
Projection at it's finest.

That's not the problem, the problem is that EA is doing what it does to all it's studios. It starts off not too bad, then it gets pushier, then it wants you to jump on all the latest trends (The dev cycle of DA:I is this bit, going from MMO attempt to just a weird single player MMO with micro-transactions so they could get some use out of it), then they tell you to work on something which isn't even remotely like what you guys do and have no expertise with (Anthem) while, in this case, getting the team who was founded to make assets for DLCs, make a full blown game.

EA are cannibalising the corpse of Bioware, this shouldn't shock anyone, it shouldn't be a surprise anthem is shit. Bioware as a brand might even manage to stick around, but this is them gutting it. If it survives it'll be to maintain TOR, and develop games with their IP names forever.

What the fuck is going on with AAA publishers/devs nowadays? F76, now this.. I dont recall things ever being THIS bad. It's an absolute shitshow.

I feel you user.
.t In Alberta

thats not what i said faggot

even these people could make a good game if the studio had a decent head on its shoulders. now whether or not you want to argue that this ideology has sunk down tot he core of bioware and caused them to hire devs based off of shit ideologies and acceptance then im fine with that but i disagree with you. i think its just a bunch of devs who know eachother and are afraid to point out bad management.

This is a wing of EA and if they fail to properly motivated and direct then there needs to be a decision made on hiring.

But this conversation rests on one of us thinking bioware still has the ability to make good games but is hampered by incompetent management and one just happy watching it burn and adding dumb SJW shit to the fire because its already a travesty so you might as well add everything you hate to it . correlation vs causation

To be perfectly fair, the EA backing most likely means that in those 6 years of development there were at least two, maybe three different Athems made, each one shittier than the last just to make papa EA happy.

Doesn't change the fact that they could at least try to make a decent story out of this shitshow, just look at Yoko Taro making more with less!

Theres actually even some reports abut system crashes on the Xbone. What the fuck is Bioware doing with game development any more?

Shareholders are demanding the same growth they had when micro-transactions started getting popular. They see the live service model work big for a few games, and they want that pie. So they push all their studios to make something like it. like, idk the exact details but I would not be surprised to find out F76 was made by a second team/studio that Zenimax pushed into the Bethesda company, so that they could have the fallout licence and make their "live service" game. Because it doesn't seem like a Todd thing.

What happened to the anime? I didn't even know they made one.

I want to make a point of politicizing hires and companies being run into the ground, but the truth is EA was shit before, so having trannies run it into the ground even faster doesn't make all that much of a difference to me.

So I decided to go look at the games credits and "game design: Bethesda Game Studios" kinda makes me suspect something like this, though everywhere has Todd as director.

What has this place done to me? I should not be this aroused by a game companies massive failure, like I legit want the industry to die and have a reset

No, seriously. Tell me. I'm interested in hearing.

What a fucking blunder.

GTA San Andreas had only niggers too

Maybe? I honestly have no idea of the story beyond the fact that is at best average and funtional (at best). Nut what it actually matters, the gameplay, is boring and broken version of Destiny with nice (but glitchy) graphics, and a good traveling system wasting in pretty but repetitive map, but combat also wasted in dead brain enemies that only become sponge bullets the further you get and with the worst loot in the genre of loot games.

So yeah, you could remove all the SJW stuff this game may have, make it all about robots, and the game would still be mediocre at best... but then there is the fact that it seems to be also broken.

youre right however they had 6 years plus massive funding and marketing from EA. they should at least be able to put out something thats good quality or fun, even if it is a modern AAA scam. and they didnt, because all they have are activists working there now.

i dont think anyone expected this game to be good.

When you have a popular name or a big marketing budget you can sell anything and people will buy it.

Time and money doesn't guarantee a good game if you're being told to chase a trend that shifts constantly. Just look at what happened to CCP's World of Darkness game. From the people behind EvE that should be easy right?

>Sources report that, over the nine-year period, the game effectively reached alpha – the stage at which all the major features have been implemented - three times, only for each version to be scrapped.

>One manager couldn't answer questions on gameplay or focus. I remember him standing over the shoulder of a programmer putting his finger to his lips and saying 'No - make it more... psssshhhh’

This is where the problems come from. Managers.

I wish. It's doing surprisingly well despite the reviews.

You know Anthem was the game that they had focus teams come in every couple of months, where the managers were pouring down the necks of the devs with the results, constantly shifting goals.

Meanwhile the game EA didn't give a fuck about came out great. because they didn't get corporate in probably.

The only thing i regret is never having a proper jade empire sequel.

Because you know these companies have hit a low where they are less interested in an honest product and care more about appeasing the suits and business.
Years ago, the games the industry had to offer were but beacons of hope and inspiration, to make people want to learn and try and make games of their own doing. Now games feel like little more than slot machines, meant to turn us into drones ever mashing buttons until the numbers get higher and the bright colorful text tells us we did good.

If this is true, why are none of the "good" devs coming out and saying this? and instead most of them bemoan the same thing that even microsoft programmers bemoan? Managers, corporate.

On some level, yes. But I don't really think that the coming death of Bioware will make EA less cancerous. So long as they have a monopoly on the official MLB and NFL game rights they will have stupid amounts of normalfag money to fall back on.

Doing well compared to what? A game like this selling a few million copies is not good enough.

Did anyone expect him to like it?
I'm excited for Wednesday

Capitalism is truly what kills soul

If you're a successful dev, why the fuck would you bemoan the practices of a competitor and point out their flaws?

This, the current state of the industry has turned exclusives into a positive thing. And that's something I would never have said even 5 years ago. At least there they have the incentive to just let the devs make a REALLY good game to sell the console.

>pre ordering at all

that's okay because ea's star wars game is gonna sell bajilions of copies

Because "good" devs work along side these "bad" ones. Face it, it's capital demand it gets it's increasing share of the market no matter the cost that's doing the damage. Not people with dyed hair.

CoD had tons of attempted competition, it didn't work for the same reason that the current attempt for tons of "live service" games won't work. Because people that play CoD, wanted CoD, not Battlefield, not Medal of Honour, they wanted CoD. They wanted the latest version of CoD that they knew their friends that they don't see IRL much anymore would get, so they could play with them, etc.

I dislike exclusives still. I hate the idea of locking a game behind a 300 - 400 $ paywall is never a good idea. Sure, I paid whatever amount on my PC, but I use that thing for more than just games. I don't want to spend 400$ on a ps4 just to only play one or two games for it. In addition to that, I find criticizing the faults of an exclusive to be a very difficult task to do when people will defend it just because it's an exclusive. Quickly your criticisms because invalid because you're an X -user hating it only because of the shitty console war.

Now I bet they could have soaked up Destiny players if this game came out before Forsaken and it actually learned from Destiny's mistakes and came out with competent controls, decent PvP and actual content instead of less shit that both Destinys had at launch

It's the plot of every ME except maybe 2.

Is there any good news about Anthem

Ea makes plenty of money user you don't need to help them

Oh yeah, that'd be the time to do it, but that's a narrow window, and you'd need to have shooting that's just as satisfying. And this is Bungie. If there is one thing they know how to do, it's to make guns feel REALLY good.

No, I thought it looked boring from the start. A few normies I know thought it looked "so sick" but I'm pretty sure they even forgot about it by the time it dropped.

TF2 didn't do so well, the studio probably thought that making a BR mode for it was the best way they could try and get some money together.

there's actually quite a big selection of both indie and EA games (not to shill for the service). it's probably not a bad deal for 30 bux a year.

Most battlefields have been free for over a year because they don't sell anymore, I don't even know what starfield is, Madden is dead, Burnout?, NFS?, FIFA?, the Battlefront games are dead, and so are titanfall games. If you read all those names and actually get excited you're either a shill or a zoomer, either case, have fun!

The original company is Canadian. Austin was created in '06 to make KotR, and the Montreal sub-studio was created in '09 to jew the Quebec government for tax benefits, promoted to full development for Andromeda, and then taken behind the shed and shot. ME1-3 and Andromeda are all primarily Canadian games.

they'll one up them in a few weeks.

It's still bad OS design. A console's OS shouldn't let the game access it directly, but my guess is the game is somehow allocating memory incorrectly or triggering a bug that causes some kind of overflow. We'll never know unless the PS4 outputs debugging information or leaves logs somewhere.

It's likely a bioware fuck up with memory allocation, and i don't think this has happen before. You could argue Sony shares some blame by not reserving enough memory, but i'd argue if literally every other dev can work with it bioware and EA should to and if they can't it's on them. Sony should be screaming at EA to fix their fucking game and if they ever ship a faulty game again they get blacklisted but they won't.

The dog is about to use it's rear leg to scratch it's ear because it has an itch, not because of a stroke.

It's closing one eye in preparation.

They only buy ailing indie studios without a clear future they can pick up for pennies.

Joke's on you I'm 34 and despite never having been loved I don't have to an hero because my heart will give out on its own.

As nice as that would be they really aren't, they fired a 1/4th of their staff of 4,000 which is still too fucking big. Most game studios are big at a few hundred, that place needs a freefall.

Jesus christ, i dont remember Sony ever having to offer refunds for a game.

Worked for DmC, it can work for Anthem.

I'm really enjoying how this whole fiasco is spinning out of control, since I wasn't here for the original TORtanic as I were lurking /m/ and /tg/ during that time. So I have to ask, was the TORtanic as chaotic or less.

Can anyone explain to me why Frostbite isn't good for RPGs again? I mean, they say that its hard to make inventory systems work for it, but DICE clearly had to have the basis of an inventory system working for lootboxes to work and lootboxes have been in the game since BF3.
Likewise, they claim that saving is difficult with frostbite, but then all of DICE's games since BC2 have had advanced save functionality such as single player checkpoints, xp, cumulative multiplayer performance statistics that are handed off to central databases etc.

What do we believe here,
>DICE has some arcane understanding of their engine that allows them to do shit that's impossible for everyone else.
>Bioware's talent got completely hollowed out by shitty recruiting practices and this resulted in a generalized lack of competence that stopped them from being able to use the engine properly.

I know which one sounds more likely to me, given how low quality and buggy everything about ME:A and Anthem is.

ofc it's the latter, it's the same thing with Bethesda. good old fashioned incompetence. they have an entire division dedicated to working on the engine. to say that's a game changer for a company is an understatement. It's just not reliably feasible to believe that the UI, of all things, is overly difficult to manage.

Problems in inventory usually revolve around inheritance and memory. Bethesda uses an extremely simple system where inventory items are reduced to a simple alpha-numerical list, whereas other games will create pointers to those objects, thus retaining them in memory as unique. RPG's tend to have extremely high memory demands for unique objects, but it's not something that is necessarily hard to deal with, it certainly isn't something you deal with late in development, this is very early on. Outside of that i can't think of any reason why they would say something like that other than incompetence.

>I mean, they say that its hard to make inventory systems work for it
Whoever said that has no idea how games are built or what an engine is. Inventories and menus you could make on XML on top of literally anything and it would work infinitely better than any menu overlays BioWare ever made. Even KOTOR had terrible menus and relied on them for everything including combat but at least it was a great game underneath all the jank.

Maybe the issues are related to third person action and animations. It's just a guess considering the engine was tailored to fps games.

For TORtanic they removed the unsubscribe button and banned people who tried to tell people how to get around it.

One of the main excuses that the ME:A guys put forward for the low quality of the game was that they had trouble making frostbite do inventories and saving and were struggling to get them up and running less than a year before release... so you're probably not far off the mark there.

DICE had a functional third person camera and animation system for Star wars battlefront before work on ME:A even started and they did that purely as an afterthought to the FPS gameplay.

You know you fucked up at the highest level when your platform has to apologize for your fuck up.

That's like fucking up at your job and your employer not only fires you (which is usually enough) but apologizes to the entire community and customer base for your mistake in addition to whomever you personally slighted with your fuck up. The employer understands that your fuck-up was of such a magnitude that if they didn't enact the most severe of damage control they would forever be harmed by how badly you screwed up.

There's a story of the head of XBox approaching Steve Ballmer about red ring. They said it would take hundreds of millions to offer the support that would fix the problem for somewhere around 70% of XBox customers and Ballmer was like, "Do it"; like a man walked into the office and said "I need 100 million dollars" and got it. Fucker saved the XBox brand.

Although not as serious as what Microsoft had to do then, it comes about as close as a software developer can get. Just imagine how badly they neglected compliance testing to get to this point; just imagine how many corners they must have cut for this to happen.

Not saying the systems arent there but maybe it's just very obtuse and limiting of what you can achieve.
Clearly there are issues on using that engine for things not fps. From Amy Hennig on her experience on the SW cancelled game:

"we obviously had to take the Frostbite Engine, because there was the internal initiative to make sure that everybody was on the same technology, but it was an engine that was made to do first-person shooters not third-person traversal cinematic games"

Seems like Frostbite limitations had a huge impact on that project failure.

>From Amy Hennig on her experience on the SW cancelled game:
That's coming from someone who headed up a failed project and needs an excuse for why it got cancelled. If the game was cancelled because the animation system and camera weren't coming together enough for EA to want to proceed, why was that groundwork good enough to then allegedly used for later games?

You cant disregard as an excuse when it's so recurrent. Amy ain't an industry rookie.
Frostbite being used in all projects is not inherently related to it's capacity to deliver. It's a business decision from EA. Using inhouse engine it doesnt pay fees to a third party.

This shit fucking writes itself.

I'm quite embarrassed to be a leaflandian right now. Seriously Jesus Christ bioware is fucked.

>You cant disregard as an excuse when it's so recurrent.
The only people who have had major complaints about the engine are bioware and Hennig and those complaints only started getting wheeled out when projects that were low quality across the board started bombing. Having UI problems or animation problems is a compartmentalized problem that has little to no bearing all the ways that a game like ME:A was bad.

The UI issues didn't make ME:A's story shit or produce amateurish cut scene animations, yet the engine has always been their primary excuse, because its something that they can pretend they weren't responsible for fucking up and mismanaging.

All games made with it that werent fps had issues. From Inquisition and Anthem passing through Mass Effect towards Fifa and NFL. You can't say it's coincidence all these games have glaring technical issues. At some level the tools gotta be influencing the output of these teams.

>Just imagine how badly they neglected compliance testing to get to this point; just imagine how many corners they must have cut for this to happen.

This is a sony issue, software should be walled in on consoles and shouldn't be able to brick the console.

Thanks Yea Forums, turns out all the fun I'm having with Anthem was imaginary.

A lot of people can have an opinion on Anthem since you could play the demo for free.

Disgaea D2 was the last game that did this I think. It melted your fucking HDD. What's this one about?

if you have "all the fun" with anthem you will hvae "all the fun" with anything. you could have fun with a rock.

I have it and as someone who has completely avoided this genre of games it has almost zero appeal, theres just nothing to do except fight the same 1 enemy over and over

have regular sex on weekends, still depressed though

I'm fine with this, it's good to know no one likes STD

so how long before these companies realize they are destroying themselves if they keep going on like this

After it's too late, even then they'll kick and scream how it isn't their fault.

How did this shit slip by both MS & Sony's QA requirements that they allowed a game that can flat-out crash the entire OS? How many other instances are there of a PS4 game requiring a hard restart?

It's a good game and I never had a problem with my PS4. Stop believing in fake news.

make me fagget

>Her videos struggle to break 10 thousand now
well everyone was shouting about how "we are giving her a platform just ignore her" during the whole 'sarkesian season'

>these companies realize they are destroying themselves
if they were gonna come to the senses it would've been around BFV.
Doesn't look like there are any brakes on this ride.

>Anthem apologist
>it's russian nigger
It fit really well

Its not a kernel panic. A kernel panic won't affect the hardware, it is basically just a software crash. A BSOD has never killed anything, it is just a software error that something is wrong.

This affects the power management system of the PS4, Im guessing, which means that the PS4 OS must have a critical flaw.

I'm not going to buy your games you fucking disgusting tranny

Frostbite is a a shit engine for ANY kind of game. It's also a pain ain the ass to develop on it. The ONLY reason DICE is using it is because it's pretty.
