Bioware redemption arc where they destroy EA and Snoy with them

so is the backlash coming from anthem actually being an underwhelming game or is this just because it's made by nubioware + ea? or because people think it killed off mass effect? or all three?
Jordan Hill
OH NO NO NO NO NO AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Bentley Taylor
All of the above and the game is a boring piece of shit that's now apparently bricking consoles.
Ian Sanders
EA bricking Anthem!
Noah Reyes
its worth it though because they have diverse employees in their company
Parker Brooks
Kek. just when i thought they finally reached the bottom of the barrel. This shit is even worse than the Nu-male sky scandal
Oliver Murphy
Serves them right for buying EA's shit. EA hasn't been based since EA Hockey.
Connor Rogers
Aaaahhh let me in. I want to refund this piece of shit already.
Carson Rogers
Has there ever been a game on any console that crashes this hard before?
Lincoln King
Have you guys been to the /vg/ general? It's filled with shills defending every last fault, they're even damage controlling this fiasco.
John Roberts
Its the only place that defends this game. Even reddit is shitting on it and exposed a few real shills. But because this place is anonymous they can do it for free at /vg/.

The lesson to learn here is that you should put your faith in people; not companies. All the competent developers left Bioware long ago, so the Bioware these days is not even close to the Bioware of yore. The millennials hired to fill in the empty seats are around 200 years of collective experience shy of creating anything close to resembling the games Bioware used to create.
Mason Howard
>implying Xbots and PC Mustard Race isn't getting their shit bricked too
Sony is at least replacing consoles no questions asked. The real problem is EA and Bioware.
Justin Ward

You had your chance with the beta.
I was excited for it, but the beta killed any hyped I had for it too. Dodged a fucking bullet.

Anthem sometimes crashes your console so hard it restarts. Also maybe it can brick it. Predatory lootbox practices. Give me money. END OF RINE.
Thomas Price

Welp Sony just told me they cannot refund because do terms of services all sales are final or some shit. Should I keep trying?
Isaiah Sanchez
Tell them the product is faulty and crashing, you fear for your PS4. Use your brain man
Joseph Nguyen
Welp. Looks like I’ll be buying it on the one X too so I can play it on there until they fix it.
Jonathan Roberts
OH NO NO NO NO NO EVERYONE GET IN HERE AND LAUGH AT THIS STUPID FAGGOT AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Brody Harris
someone nuke /vg/ please
those retards are still vehemently defending this dumpster fire
Asher Gomez
I did. I told the girl it crashed my system and there are multiple reports saying it can kill the console but I dont think she knew what even a video game is.
John Gomez
It was amazing watching as a Streamer went from hardcore sucking the game's dick after the beta to having all his goodwill slowly and painfully drained away by the full release until the only reason he was still going was suck cost fallacy and a desire to see how much further down the rabbit hole went until his spirit was finally broken by one final time gate.

Goddamn, that nigger's voice is grating; I could only make it halfway through. Anyway, if true, the person with the bricked PS4 may have a lawsuit on his hands. I won't defend that pile of shit game, but the burden of proof lies on him unfortunately.
What's the deal with all these braindead youtubers posting screenshots of reddit/online articles/etc, reading them aloud in nearly their entirety and passing them off as videos?

Ever since it got shown at E3 2018, it looked absolutely and miserably bland.
Adrian Hill

it's dogshit but still a better choice than battlefield v
Cameron Richardson
I was reading articles that they were giving refunds, did you tell them about it bricking consoles?
Joseph Thompson
Can a game even brick a console? You'd think this should not be technically possible.
Daniel King
Scared to offend a majority right off the bat for calling it the dogshit it always was

Aiden Cox
How did they fuck up this bad? A triple A studio with the backing of EA's multi millions?

I'm also curious about it.
To the more tech-savvy people, how the fuck can a game be so badly optimized that it outright bricks an entire system?

Stop lying op, it can't be bricking consoles, the main advantage of consoles is that there aren't any bugs while pc has hundreds. Just like how macs can't get viruses
Lincoln Sanders
I wonder if there will be enough peoples consoles being bricked for a class action lawsuit?
I hope so. Fuck Bioware and EA.
Ayden Kelly
Where did all the money go? Like EA has been pushing for this for YEARS and yet it comes out as if it was rushed out last minute. What happened?
Camden Harris
If it only bricks one system, then the game may be hitting some system bug which in turn bricks the system. Or perhaps the operating system is for some reason programmed to allow games fuck up system files (in a way that earlier versions of Windows would) and then Anthem goes ahead with that.
Wyatt Cox
Not necessarily, it might be related to the ps4 OS, although if it happens on both xbox and ps4 then maybe
Carter Reed
>post yfw you ALMOST bought this shit but changed your mind in the last second
Oliver Allen
>Where did all the money go?
Honestly I don't know. I'd like to say it went to the enviroment/javelins, but there's only 1 biome and the javelins have limited customization. It wasn't spent on the story, PvP, or weapon designing.
It really only makes sense that the game got internally rebooted at some point and EA couldn't have Bioware delay the game any further after Andromeda being one big mistake.

Hold the goddamn phone. Did Bioware just, dare I say, innovate difficulty systems as we know them?

fucking christ this
You can only craft weapons but not upgrade your weapons. You use a crafted weapon for a single expedition and never again. You get like 25% of the materials you used to craft the fucking thing, so you gotta grind 4x as much, lol, ember and gear/weapon parts. It's best to use what you find in the field/chest.
>Now you can't restart the game without restarting your computer
You can kill the process and restart the game. Sometimes, I have to ctrl+alt+delete and start the task manager if ctrl+shift+esc does nothing when the game gives me a black screen.
Tyler Edwards
Not him but I had to lurk a while since starting out here in late 2012 just to figure out wtf the TORtanic even was because
>Fucking starwars shit
>a starwars MMO at that
Wouldn't have cared if it failed or succeeded regardless.
But what was so wrong with DA:I? It was mediocre as all hell but wasn't a catastrophe by any means.

Jacob Lewis

Hudson Diaz
I think 76 is still worse even with shit like this. Anthem's design problems can actually be fixed through patches, tweaking of mob health and damage, weapon damage, drop rates, etc. Fallout 76's design issues are so deep that you'd have to essentially rebuild from the ground up to make anything worthwhile.
Brandon Wilson
Is Anthem now considered a virus or malware product? I don't know the difference.

To be fair Destiny got it wrong most of the time as well. They threw out everything they learned from Destiny 1 when they made 2 and only recently fixed it by adding it back in.
Alexander Gomez
Typical Yea Forums faggot.
It doesn't brick it. It does shut down so hard it screws up the boot on the hard drive, like if you were to pull the power plug. It's demanding on the pc, consoles just can't handle it. It's easily fixed by running ps4's diagnostic manually.
And there's no lootbox in it. Apex is the one with lootboxes.
Dominic Turner
Oh yes, the articles and posts from people were not enough, I really needed some chink fuck to promote his video to me.
Ryder Robinson
Not only did Bioware not innovate difficulty, but they made the higher difficulties 100% completely pointless because they literally do not drop any better gear than the lower difficulties.
Gavin Rivera
>Being happy about fellow gamers getting screwed instead of being angry at the people screwing them
Liam Wilson
>It's easily fixed by running ps4's diagnostic manually.
A game should not do this to its console in the first place, though.
Landon Ward
Isaiah Brown
>Sequel based on DLC ending
Didn't know about that, thats pretty fuckin dumb. Seems like thats the prevailing trend for Bioware games at this point. I guess they deserve this fate they've wrought. But the rest of all that seems to go along with a game being mediocre. (aside from favorable reviews from dumbfucks and award-givers). Kinda like how Fable 3 was comparatively.
Just sayin that it wasn't a complete catastrophe or disaster like Anthem/TOR is/was. Or at least didn't feel like it back when I slogged through it. Maybe the hardcore Dragon Age fans felt that way though, I only played origins. It was at least a complete game (sans "real ending") that wasn't bricking the platforms it was released on, but thats not exactly redeeming or a good look for either game.
Alexander Scott
>Just sayin that it wasn't a complete catastrophe or disaster like Anthem/TOR is/was
Nobody cared. Nobody had expectations of a good time. It was completely mediocre and it showed. It was just timed well. If it were released today, it'd get panned as hard as Anthem was.
