IS THIS THE BLUNDER OF THE YEAR??
LMAO WHAT A PIECE OF SHIT

>3.2 user score
>all those obvious paid critic reviews
>$60.00
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>337952275
I didn't even know they were making a new one.
>>337952275
It had to have at least some kind of expectations for it to be a blunder.
>got a flash deal on a site for this game for 33 dollars
>buy it like an idiot
>my face when all the reviews
I'm desperately looking for a site that I can pawn this piece of shit on to get some of that money back.

When the fuck did this came out?
>>337953239
today for NA, 20th for EU
Is the campaign longer than two hours this time?
>>337952984
Please tell me you have never even heard of the first one, no one who played the first should want to be anywhere near this shit
>>337952984
33 dollars seems a bit much. I bet this piece of shit will be even cheaper within a few weeks.
>>337952275
>LMAO
>HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
How old are you? Get off of /v/ right now.
>>337953518
There has been Zero marketing on this game.
>>337953808
I actually liked the gameplay and atmosphere of the first game. I was hoping Revolution would just be the first one but open world and not just 2 hours long.
I was wrong.
>>337953808
People that have played the first would probably be reassured by the fact that it's completely different. Still shit after all, but a different kind of shit.
>>337953873
It's hilarious
They paid for denuvo but didn't pay for marketing
Guess which one of those actually sells games lol
>>337953873
I see ads for it all the time on the mobile twitch app
>>337953873
There was a free beta on xbonehahahahabut that was buggy as fuck, and performed like shit, which probably turned off quite a few people.
I spent a few hours today watching all the damage control shills trying to defend it in the Steam forums. Too fucking funny.
>>337954163
I don't know what beta got shit on more, that or DOOM.
But at least it seems DOOM turned out okay, they just marketed it horribly wrong.
>>337953191
twitch users are such fucking faggots
>>337953808
the first one was made by a competent studio and was actually a 7/10
this one shits all over the story, setting and gameplay
>>337952275
>"all those obvious paid critic reviews"
>13/15 review scores below 70
Pretty sure it's unanimous that this one in is shitty port

>we got this shit instead of timesplitters 4/HD
>>337954345
Both betas were legitimately shit. Doom's single player turned out to be ok, but the shitty multiplayer is just as bad as the beta indicated.
>>337954514
>shitty port
Uh, no, it's just a really bad game.
>tfw the MP in the first one was actually not bad and people shit on it
>>337954613
Bad game and shitty port, there
>>337954535
>>337954535
Wait, does this mean TS2 is on PC with mouse support in a way? If they have the legal rights to do this could they port the games to steam or something?
>>337954535
This is depressing.
>Remember when we were Free Radical, guys?
>Remember when we made a sequel to Homefront instead of Timesplitters 4
Free Radical got fucked over by every publisher they ever worked with. While FR doesn't exist in name, and most of the staff are long gone, it's sad to see they're STILL getting fucked over.
When this game bombsand I'd be surprised if it doesn'twill what's left of FR finally be mercy killed?
>>337954843
They don't even own the IP anymore.
>>337954843
day one purchase
>>337954956
Then how did they do this legally?
>>337955008
"hey can we put this in as an easter egg"
"sure"
>>337955008
Paid Crytek for the rights to what used to be their own IP.
Speaking of that
>Crytek sells off Crytek UK and the Homefront IP to in a last ditch effort to dodge bankruptcy
>Keeps the Timesplitters IP even though they've stated MULTIPLE TIMES that they have no intent or interest to do anything with it
They're holding it hostage.
>>337952275
I fucking loved Homefront on my 360. That shit was great.
It's a shame that this game is probably shit, i wonder if i can find it at redbox.
FUCK HOMEFRONT
WE WANT TIMESPLITTERS 4
Can't be blunder of the year. A blunder implies that there were at least some expectations. In a month, everyone will have forgotten that this game even existed.
>>337955275
mate if you liked homefront you'll enjoy anything
>>337953873
well denuvo aint free you know
>>337952275
people on /v/ bought this turd instead of Overwatch *smirks*
>>337955481
The MP of the first was fun, don't talk shit. I bet you haven't played it
I was tempted to preorder it for £20 then they delayed the uk release
Then all these reviews came out
So I decided to pirate it and try it then they put Denuvo in
They're surely gonna lose money on this
>>337955518
>>337955275
I'll sell you a PC key with all the pre-order shit in exchange for Salt and Sanctuary, anon.
>>337955876
Sorry anon i see that it's at the redbox in town so i'm going to rent it first.
>>337955275
>tfw Homefront's MP mode was a blast and underrated
>everyone only knows about the shitty two hour campaign with product placement at every corner and PRESS X TO HIDE IN MASS GRAVE
>>337952275
Isn´t this made by Crytek?
No suprise it´s shit.
>>337955523
I have played it, and the multiplayer was unbalanced garbage
It's not out in europe till friday, wonder if the price will tank by then
>>337956407
It was crytek uk and it ended up being passed between loads of different devs because of them collapsing
Nobody wanted this game. Who knows why they even made it.
>>337954446
The first one had shit single player and kind of ok multiplayer. That's a 6/10, only if you're really generous.
the only good thing are the weapon mods
>>337956602
It is secret pet project of Kim Jong-un
>>337954738
The rest of the game was fucking terrible. the MP couldn't save the game. Deal with it.
>there will never be a good sequel or even a good spiritual successor to this game
>>337956940
Better than having a bad sequel.
>>337956940
that game was so fucking good my god
i was actually hoping this would be like Far Cry 4 quality, wouldve been fun
>>337952984
Get a refund
>>337956940
>>337956940
>a good spiritual successor
Kane and Lynch. Sort of.It's the closest thing we'll ever get
>>337956407
Kaos was supposed to develope but was shutdown by THQ for no reason, Crytek UK picked it up in 2013 and Deepsilver was supposed co-publish it with Crytek
For some reason Crytek UK made it from a linear game to an open world and then eventually Crytek ditched the studio along with the game itself to koch media because they were broke which owns Deepsilver and we all know what happens when Deepsilver gets its hands on nice things
tl;dr a store sold another store something, who then threw it to the thrash from where a hobo found it and finished it off
>>337953518
>20th for EU
It's out.
>>337957195
Yeah that part in Panama or wherever the fuck was neat.
>>337957167
>>337957043
I'll keep playing these trash games until I find one. It is my eternal fruitless quest
>>337955436
>In a month
You're one of those optimistic types, arent you?
>>337952984
You bought a game and instead of playing for 5 minutes you base it off others opinions? Faggot
>>337952275
You know, if crytek tried optimizing for once in their fucking lives, maybe this game wouldn't have been so badly received. It's pretty but a game is not fun at 10 fps.

>this was made by the same guys who made Timesplitters
What the fuck happened?
>>337958807
sounds like they inherited a game mid-production and had to shit out something
>>337958807
>thinking just because the studio name is the same the people are the same
I see you didn't play guild wars
>>337958969
Actually it's the other way around, it's a different studio formed by former Free Radical employees, I mean sure, it's not the exact same team as it was before, but most of the original team is.
>>337959290
oh
well something went horribly wrong with this andHaze
>>337952275
just put in 2 hours and i want it back
the nonsprint walk speed is similar to call of duty modern warfare when you are wandering around after the nuke goes off and you get knocked out and saved TWICE over 2 different longer then needed cutscenes before the game lets you even begin to play
/v/ was right im just glad i did not pay for it
at least being able to play timesplitters 2 is cool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0N8sKvPwEfo
Good god, how tragic. What in the universe were these people even expecting with doing absolutely little if any advertising, yet got Denuvo for this thing?
Anyone wanna take bets on how quickly this'll be forgotten? Mine is on just one week, two if God shows pity on these people.
>>337959550
So someone gifted you homefront? What a shit gift
>>337959828
It's a terribly buggy game that's generic as fuck to boot. I don't think marketing would have saved it.
>>337953873
This thread is the first time i'm hearing about this game
>>337959923
Fair points, but it could earn them a penny or two, I guess.
Why do people release shit games?
They work on these games for years and play them, so they 100% know its broken bugged and shit and boring so why bother not fixing anything and releasing a shit game?
Why?
>>337959828
It'll die instantly here at least
Because fucking nobody is buying this without trying it first
>>337959923
It's incredibly easy to get good marketing out of a foreign takeover of the Us, they just didn't bother
>>337960060
Sunk costs
After a certain point it's better to release shite and make some money (with a net loss) than just scrapping the project
>>337959828
Makerting costs a lot of money, they probably realized how bad the game was and decided not to waste more money with it.
>>337960060
Deep Silver probably wanted to be done with the game ASAP after wasting their money on it.
>>337959885
I got a free code from a online survey thing I'm signed up for
so make that 4 hours of my life I'll never get back
>>337953636
Apparently it's around 30 hours
>>337960969
>30
i very much doubt that. they're probably including the grinding sections in the co-op mode.
>>337952275
How did this even get green lit after the shitshow of the first game
>>337960969
>>337961434
would be 5 hours if you could walk at a decent pace 30 hours in slowpoke mode
>>337960507
What's that online survey thing?
>>337961836
it was either mysurvey.com or opinionoutpost.com
i do both not sure which one gave me the game
>>337952984
>$33 fucking dollars for an out-of-nowhere sequel to a really shitty game
what the fuck is wrong with you?
I thought it was supposed to be FarCry 4.5 with revolution setting, how can you fuck such a simple formula up?
>>337952275
soon to be in Humble Bundle for 10 bux
>>337952984
Go to one of those key reseller sites.
>>337956940
>>337953852
>off of
Get off /v/. You don't need the 'of'.
>>337952275
Blunder of the year implies anyone expected anything out of it
I honestly had fun with the first game. Guess the new developer fucked it up huh
Did these ignorant fuckbiscuits ACTUALLY pluralize a word using an apostrophe?
>>337954738
I still play the multiplayer with mostly Germans and Russians. There are a few active servers. I was online this evening with about 22 others.
>>337959508
This was a game that nobody wanted
Haze tried to be a Halo killer but had no fucking idea what Halo was
