Zach Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) Maybe because Bioware needs more time after the disappointment Andromeda was. Edited January 30, 2018 by Zach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT__Jedi Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I also saw the tag about MS beefing up their game side, possibly looking at EA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voodoo_eyes Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Was to be expected. Anthem is another EA game that was bound to have microtransactions and loot boxes. EA are holding off to see if the whole SWBFII disaster settles down before they give that nonsense another go. Their shareholders are probably still having an eye twitch after the EA stock went down the shitter, back when the outrage happened. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT__Jedi Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 If MS DOES acquire EA, hope that doesn't affect the PS4 side of gaming.....hopefully they will keep it as a separate entity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undead Wolf Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Is anybody actually excited for Anthem? I've barely heard anyone talk about it.

They kind of already did that all the way back in 2011 with the release of Dragon Age II. I wasn't a fan of Inquisition either tbh. Origins still remains a fantastic game, though! It's just a shame the Bioware who made high quality titles such as that is long dead. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlindMango Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Please don't make Battlefield rushed, please don't make Anthem microtransaction garbage! What am I saying, EA is the publisher, all hope is lost 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What am I saying, EA is the publisher, all hope is lost It is rushed. It's on the yearly cycle now (since BF4). The last time a BF game came out finished was PS3 1942. And don't worry about the microtransactions. The ones we already have are only kit shortcuts and BS. Plus, they have a new trick up their sleeves. 75% chance we will get another "Free" season pass. The "Free" part means Timed... Just like what they've done with SWBFII. You'll get to play the dlc for a couple of weeks before it is rotated out of play. It's only going to get worse from here. coughgamesasaservicecough... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect at some point there was a big meeting where the project heads were all told, "From now on, you are to sugar-coat all your microtransactions. Study how to make them feel fair, or hire someone who can. If you need more time, you can take more time. We can't restart this fire three times a year."

MAUSZX Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Don't care, they ruined Mass Effect Andromeda future because they wanted to focus all the money a resources to Star Wars, I can't care less about this new franchise that looks like a third person Destiny.

RadiantFlamberge Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 There may be better games, but Andromeda isn't bad. I'll admit one thing I miss is being able to tell your squadmates to use a power. Still the combat turned out well, with Ryder being able to swap between 4 sets of abilities. The Nomad handles better than ME1's Mako. Things you say to NPCs don't seem to have as serious repercussions as in the Trilogy. Some of the facial animations were bad in early versions. Maybe they should have delayed Andromeda until June 2017, not just for that but also to avoid competing with Nier: Automata & Horizon: Zero Dawn.

Mosik_YP Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I don't even know what to expect from Battlefield these days, I loved BC1+2. Hope the gameplay is similar but I'm not getting my hopes up. Hope there is no P2W bs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance_87 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 In other news, they'll reintroduce microtransactions in Battlefront II. L-O-L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valyrious Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 For me, I'll never be buying another Bioware game again. Inb4 they try and tempt me to break that vow with a ME trilogy for PS4. Nope, not even that will make me bulge. Fuck them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g-bake_1986 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 No interest in Anthem at all, it'll just be an amalgamation of every other FPS with extra lootboxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theSpirae Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 New BF already? I'm still having tons of fun with BF1, just got two new maps today, and I believe we're still getting one more DLC? But if it's really Bad Company 3 then I'm stoked, I had at least 1 000 hours in BC2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damage_6-9 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 BC2 absolutely nailed it as far as MP goes, map size, team size, game modes, awards/ribbons, etc. Was absolute joy to play..... EA & Dice should just look at what they produced there and use it as the template Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jka121 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 My bet is it’s BFBC3. If it is I’m gonna be pretty excited and might buy a ps4 just to play it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
