At what point will people just switch over to Epic?

When it improves its security and has sales. Even fucking Origin is more secured then this shit.

Wait, was it officially announced?
Their website still says Steam.

, I can understand a smaller dev and their publisher going for epic’s deals but how come a big shot like Take 2 needs to make deals with epic when you’d think all they’d want is as much access to everything around as possible?

>6 months

Wow, so I get to skip the DLC and get it in a $60 collection? Thanks, Epic.

This keeps happening to me no matter how much i change my password. This has never happened with my 8 years with Steam.

I get more emails about attempted security breaches from my epic games account more then anything.

Can someone please elaborate clearly and concisely what exactly is wrong with EGS? I see literally no issue with it and it just sounds like the people crying are just a bunch of Valve shills screaming about it because it is something that is directly competing with Steam. Isn't competition good for consumers?

/Thread

I kept getting emails about being people trying to hack my account. Which is weird because I never made an Epic Account. So some rando probably stole my email address to sign up which has happened before. I’ve emailed legitimate companies and they’ve closed the accounts before.

But anyway I tried to send them an email about this through their support page and got a bounce back error. Marked their shit as spam and blocked their email.

FUCK EPIC

This is good actually, because this means it isn't using steamworks so you don't have to use spacewar or anything to play online pirated.

>he thinks he is smart when chink companies and many other companies in the world already have his data via, google, facebook, twitter, etc etc or even from people he is friends with.

not saying that taking precautions isnt good, but to think that doing this particular thing will stop them from having your info when your info is already available through a pletora of other platforms just seems naive.

I have pirated more games in the last 3 months than the last decade combined. Epic has reminded me how nice it is to try games for free.

when they actually make a better store with better services like they should have done from the start without pissing off thousands of potential users by holding games hostage. They've really fucked themselves.

I don't have stockholm syndrome with a DRM, so I'll just buy it on the Epic Store.

not that user but some dude bro shooters are more enjoyable when i don't have to mute the ingame audio and play music while i grind. it's not the major selling point but some effort is always nice.

They won't.

GoG > Piracy > Steam > Epic

I'll pay them for a good service, I don't want to pay them for a deliberately worse service than piracy

You hit the nail on the head
It's the same reason I never fully switched to origin, even though origin had some games I wanted I would never buy anything directly from origin and I would sometimes have origin closed for weeks and months at a time because origin just wasn't as good as steam. Epic starts off FAR worse than origin so I won't install their launch until they fix that and until tim sweeney stops being retarded also I'm not convinced epic store is anything more than a tool for tencent and china to get their claws further into another industry.

Have you played the other borderlands games? The first game was nothing but an endless stream of outdated memes.

Well I won't, so that's all that matters to me.

They're disrupting the market ENTIRELY at the consumer's expense, of course consumers are going to be upset.
Nobody wants a DRM launcher, and they're now trying to force us to adopt another without even pretending to have any real benefits.

most people don't care so you whine all you want but you lost

EGS is worse than steam, uplay, origin, bnet and GOG, all they have going for them are exclusives.
Epic pays for exclusives but they have no had in financing development of games, it's not like when sony or nintendo actually pay devs to make a game, epic pays devs/publishers to not release a game anywhere else
Epic claims to be developer focuses but devs generally have no say in if their game ends up on EGS, if someone like Take Two (The Outer Worlds and BL3 are ultimately published by them) says your game is going on EGS that's where it's going and devs don't get any of that exclusivity money.

What is the obsession with trying to convince people to use EGS if you're not a shill?

fpbp

Epic is not benefiting consumers at all, user.c Arguably they are benefiting publishers/devs, which is not the consumer. Epic pays for exclusivity, epic makes deals paying for a certain amount of guaranteed sales, and epic gives a bigger cut. Consumers get nada.

EGS is the most bare bones shit ever, it's like they got a team of people who thought 'steam is bloated as fuck with features, lets not use literally anything steam has to offer, not even a search function' and that's how we got EGS.

Next time you take a hostage it would be better if you didn't pick the two-bit, negro crackhead.

Never for me. I made an account when it was announced but now I don't care about it anymore since the only thing it brings to the table is console wars for pc.

there is no real competition for customers in this industry. when the game is 60 everywhere is down to personal preference or addional service. what you witness right now though, is competition for publishers, and lets be honest, none of them gives a shit about the customers

>implying handsome jack garbage isn't want made the game popular with its reddit tier audience
The game play was even worse

Nothing makes it popular anymore I'd think. Borderlands 1 had novelty, but once that wore off you were left with a rather shit game. I pre-ordered borderlands 2 back in the day on borderlands 1 nostalgia train, it's still to this day the only game purchase I deeply regret.

2019 will be the year of Piracy, to the torrents beyond!

Here's a thought: what if Gearbox just released the fucking game simultaneously on both EGS and Steam, allowing the consumers to buy the game from wherever they like? Fuck's sake, this console war shit is retarded and I thought we had moved past it already.

Funny thing is, this whole Epic shitstorm completely overshadows the second outrage of their super-duper edition for 120 bucks. We are on double of that so-called stagnant video game price.

Then they won't have that extra rice by Epic

Then you would get sale numbers where would Epic got obliterated, which is exactly why they dont allow for that.

WTF why it isn't 12 months? I'm not paying premium price for a mere 6 months of early access. Fuck this scam.

I'm starting to hate this shit honestly, it sounds good on paper but it's code for 'expect the game to be shit for a year or two while we fix the game and add shit'

it's not gearbox's decision, it's take two's decision, they're the same ones who made the outer worlds EGS exclusive

I really dont understand their endgame. What happens when the exclusivity ends and they no longer can buy developers? Their storefront is dogshit and no developer willing wants to release there without getting paid. This might have worked when there were no other options, but thats hardly the case now

The fact that it's only 6 months shows that the anger is real, enough so where take two was only willing to receive half the bribe shekels

Since absolutely nothing on the Epic store has sold or any made any money, how long until Tencent either completely ousts Tim or just guts the company and walks away? There is no way they are happy with dumping millions into this only to see zero return on those investments every time. Fortnite is dying fast too.

What is fake tits user.

fpbp always.

Metro exodus did sold well if I recall, but there is going to be a point Epic is going to run out of bribe money.

Metro exodus sold like shit

could you give me a source?

It didn't. Only 2.5 million copies sold total including console and Steam. Only about 300-500K copies even sold on PC and 98% of them were Steam pre-orders, the rest were console. It's a flop and certainly didn't sell on Epic.

2.5mil sounds pretty good for a kind of niche title though
any source on the 98% thing though?

Depends how convenient it is to pirate honestly.

it sold like shit
there's a reason they didnt give any sales numbers and only said "it sold 2.5 times more than x on steam" and failed to mention that x sold like shit

Never. This is a repeat of what happened with StarForce DRM. If you don't start out on everyone's good side, you're not going to survive

Borderlands 3 being only 6 months exclusive instead of a year is no doubt a result of the hatred being put on publishers right now

fucking shills they never understand.

The game flopped massively anyway. See

That cause epic offers a guaranteed number of sales which is why the preorders are so high

1989 tiananmen square

>Play hundreds of games on Steam
>Epic Store has two and they lose exclusivity before they even have a chance to drop in price

I genuinely do not understand how any PC platform is meant to overtake Steam when the latter already has so many more games available on it

Actually it's completely believable that preorders were high for The Division 2 because Ubisoft specifically said UPlay numbers, not Epic Game Store numbers. The original game probably sold like as in terms of pre-orders on UPlay because it released on Steam as well. Anybody who thinks that picture means good things for Epic's store are either intentionally misleading or an outright idiot

The pre-orders obviously weren't high since it didn't sell for shit. It's just that without Steam, the people who did buy it just did so through Uplay unlike before since they had no choice. Normally no one buys anything directly from Uplay.

If Epic's store is doing so well, why did their store guy hide the numbers for the original release of Last Light on his website after saying Exodus sold better than it on the EGS?
archive.is/7jcam in case the guy deletes the direct link

Attached: theyknow.png (1184x769, 77K)

>Metro Exodus
>Steam: 200,000-500,000

Jesus Christ even with closing down pre-orders a day before pulling it from the store Steam numbers are probably running circles around what it sold on the Epic Game Store

They can hide it all they like, we already know the original Last Light release only sold about 1.5 million copies total and only about 20K on PC. So for them to claim it sold twice that on Epic, that means they were bragging about a maximum of 40K sales. Fucking embarassing by all metrics.

Considering that the original release of Last Light only sold 20k, the ebin version sold 50k at most. The steam version is running circles around the epic version saleswise, no doubt why the guy hid the original 2033/LL from his website, but it's pretty fucking hard to erase things from the internet

I don't get it either, in march I bought sekiro, dmc5 and risk of rain 2, in february I bought ace combat 7.
I don't plan to buy anything this month or next month but there's nothing on epic's store that makes me say 'holy fuck I want to buy this game right now'. There's no game that good, epic's store is too shitty and tim sweeney's attitude towards consumers had made it so I can't in good conscience buy a game on the epic store without feeling like I'm selling my soul to the devil.

This. If I'm going to switch the service I use itll be because I want to, not because some faggot company said to.

You're a stooge. There is a separate miner to download on the website if you want to donate. There haven't been a miner in fitgirl repacks for a while now.

The steamspy estimate was 0-20,000 which is usually what happens when they have next to no data on it. My guess is that it's a glitch because I just don't believe Metro sold fewer than 20k copies when something like Airport CEO Simulator is in the 50-100k range.

Last Light didn't sell well in general, and most of its sales were on console. The original release only sold 1.5 million copies total.

But, you still had it already.

metro last light had almost 0 marketing back then pluss its was a beraly know franchise

i mean the only reason i heard about the metro games was back then when thq was giving away metro 2033 for free on facebook before going bankrupt

You may not have noticed it, user, but that is a cartoon drawing.

I get some email about a login attempt at least once a month even though I don’t have the launcher installed and only did, briefly, for a shadow complex probably a couple of years ago now. Total scam company, they are NEVER EVER getting my money.

Your analysis of the situation is probably correct, but all the same the first week sales of Last Light were fucking abysmal because right before the original release date THQ died, nobody was sure if Last Light was even going to release, and when it did eventually release months later with a new publisher it was to zero marketing whatsoever

Can't wait to make an EGS account for 1 game.

Xchad here

I don't really see the long term strategy here. Even if they get people buying their exclusives, they can't continue buying exclusives indefinitely. People will buy the exclusives and then go back to Steam because that's where their entire 100+ game library is. If a game is ever released on both platforms, they'll probably buy it on steam.

I will never forget these fuckwits that pushed exclusivity deals and tried to sell it to consumers as “competition”. They will never get any money from me, not ever. I will quit gaming before I buy a single game from them.

Did Borderlands 2 have LAN support? I know the original game did and if this one does to you could just pirate and LAN tunnel to play with friends

Don't do that. The client is spyware and a bitcoin miner and they have no account security so you will get hacked and your payment information stolen.

I bought a physical copy just to feel nice about myself.Then torrented the shit out of it.

>10 points were added to your social credit

More that given the popularity of Borderlands + it being a micro transactions focused game means buying exclusivity is a shit ton more expensive.

They're probably trying the 6 month exclusive approach to see if it makes people hate them less, because they're realizing that their "Fuck the consumer" attitude only works in Fortnite where they're dealing with addicted children who scream and beg their parents for more Fortnite dollars and not actual consumers.

It won't.

People like to think never, but the worst thing about epics strategy is it's 100% effective.

Prepare for the dark age of PC gaming, where you're limited to precisely two places to buy games and they're more expensive than ever to fund the exclusives arms race. I wouldn't be surprised if epic churns out a subscription service down the line because what are you gonna do? Go somewhere else for games? LMAO. My only joy is knowing that indies that shilled for epic for muh 88% are also getting fucked over.

I'm guessing Epic were desperate to have this exclusive but Randy and Take Two refused to allow it to be a year long contract. Most likely because they know exactly how poorly every exclusive has sold on there and didn't want to kill their game but still wanted free money. None of the games that took the year long deal will ever sell on Steam next year either. Everyone already pirated and by then the hype will be gone and forgotten, they missed their window. Gearbox knows this would happen to them too so they are just going to focus on console sales anyway.

>what are you gonna do? Go somewhere else for games

An unlikely worst case scenario, Epic has already failed. Fortnite is dying fast and will be forgotten by summer's end. No one uses their store and none of their exclusives have sold at all. They won't be around long enough for this to happen. Steam already won without lifting a finger.

I wonder how they plan to starve Valve fanboys next year when all of this years titles release on steam.

that or epic is just running out of fortine money for the bribes or 2k/t2 asked for too much for the 1 year deal

The Epic store really has the most baffling marketing plan I have seen in the gaming industry lately. Do they just expect to force PC user to change to an inferior store by holding hostage games with any benefits to the users they can market to the public to make the change? I mean at least GOG offers a good alternative to Steam, but the Epic Store what offers? Their public image is that they have a shit ton of money from their Chinese overlords to force you to use their service, they don't even hide it. And it is not even a good threat if you want to support small studios that a flop could put them in bankruptcy, like Supergiant Games, because thanks to Epic money they are in the clear for a while. Then there is the issue of being spyware, I mean I don't trust Gabe but I prefer him over a megacorporation on China of all places.

I prefer to wait than let them force me to use something I don't want to.

I wonder how much Take 2 will ask when they try to get a year exclusivity of RDR2.

Launch sales usually form the majority of a games lifetime sales. If anything this timed exclusive shit is worse since publishers will be double dipping like some of them do now with arbitrarily delayed console ports.

Ill pirate before I let some chinks steal my credit card info and datamine my ass, fuck the company that takes exclusivity deals they dont deserve my support if the only way to give it to them is by risking my finances. Never trust Tencent with anything.

RDR2 isn't ever coming to PC anyway. But Rockstar has made pretty clear they support Steam and Take Two/2K do what Rockstar wants not the other way around (because they can't afford to lose them).

It will, after the gen 9 remaster so they can get people to triple dip like with GTAV.

>budget russians
according to huw beynon (deep silver brand manager) M2033 was made by 50 people and LL by 80 people
both games were in development hell
by 2017 4A had a well over 150 employees, thats more than 2033 and LL combined, with smooth 5 years development cycle
we have no clue how much money was spent, but its evident that exodus isn't your little niche AA game anymore

>Several people on PC don't buy games at full price anyway and wait for sales
All this does is give me more of a reason to wait until the price drops to $30 or below. Steam has hundreds of games under $30 so who cares that Epic has two that are $60?

>rdr2 isnt ever coming to PC
Stop with this shit. the Rockstar dev tripfag in /GTAg/ said it was going to be a delayed release the hour that first trailer dropped, there are PC only graphic options in the RDR2 companion app and rockstar made a fucking bundle getting double and triple dippers. It is coming to PC.

I'd be butthurt about it not coming until 2021 if I did't find RDR1 meh. GTAV was also just alright, think I've gone off on sandboxes as I've aged.

I wont. Buying exclusivity like this is bad for the consumer and anybody that wants to participate in it isn't going to get any of my money.
