Borderlands 2.

It's a shame; because it improved so much over the first game, but then dropped the ball and was way worse for the elements that were critical IE; the loot system and leveling.

Agreed. I enjoyed it for many hours. Punishing people with your favorite titan was an absolute treat, as long as there weren't too many scrub-pistol faggots in the match everything was gravy.
>>
>>339906441
The game was good. I don't like FPS, or online games in general, but Titanfall was fucking fun as hell. Most fun I've had online since MGO2.

It's problem was there wasn't enough maps and modes, with the biggest being no single player or co-operative modes. So as much as I loved the first game, I will not buy a sequel unless it has single player.

I feel the same with Destiny, I refuse to buy it at all until it is playable offline. Same with The Division. There is no reason for these games to be online only, when they could be perfectly played offline. Scummy companies.

On subject, Dark Void PS3. Holy fucking shit it was so generic, so fucking boring. I was thinking it would be like Lost Planet with Jet Packs, and all I got was a really shitty Uncharted game. The 1 mission in the giant lake with the 2 giant things you have to take down was actually really fun, so if the entire game was like that I might have considered it a underrated gem.

That is great news. Looking forward to seeing it. Hopefully the single player takes advantage of the open areas, and titans. I hate to say that if it's basically a ultra linear CoD campaign, I probably wouldn't get it. It's got to have a marginally similar feeling to the multi, or basically what makes it feel unique.

I loved the amped up or accelerated chaingun or the 40mm extended mag, on a strider you just dance around all the idots running triple threat and pummel the weak points before dashing in for the execution.

Can't wait for swords in the sequel, but I think it should have been wrist mounted rather than take up a hand. Want an execution where you run it though the cockpit and drag out the pilot impaled on the blade.

not balanced. fights come down to which group is better geared. plus, smgs are broken as shit. if you're not using an smg, you're playing wrong.

just not fair to be considered worth doing.
>>
>>339913604
First of all balance is a meme. Stop complaining about it. Second players are going to be better or worse geared. That's how MMORPGs work. In-fact all RPGs work that way, the player or mob or whatever that has the best stats has the best chances to win. And lastly if uzis are broken just use an uzi. I used to play a game called GunZ and 99% of all players used shotguns because shotguns were the shit. Mind you there were some players that used shotguns and pistols, and others used shotguns and daggers (instead of swords.) Was the game broken? No, players just liked the game so much that they figured out that one weapon was better than another, or that it fit their playstyle better.
>>
>>339911660
I think it was out of a combination of naïveté to begin with, they just didn't consider it...fuck if I know why, but people started exploiting it during the open beta and either they decided they couldn't fix it at all, couldn't fix it in time, or fuck it who cares what's the worse that could happen.

The end result was complete disaster, I thought Arkham Knight had a bad launch, but Division stole the crown.

>>339914250
That would be a fair point if the gear was obtained as the game intended, but it isn't. People exploit glitches to get stupid high level gear very early into the games life or blatantly modified the stats of their character to become god like superhumans. In that situation a game focused on PVP is zero fun. You play vanilla you are going to get your shit kicked in. If everyone was grinding for the gear and all was fair then sure suck it up and use the best build and pick your targets, but that isn't the state of the game.

this is why shit is dying. you can sperg all you like and say it's not a valid complaint, but when 80%(yes, 80%) of the user based dropped off already, it's valid.

75% is the new toughness. players that exploited, or just played for a long time, have hit that, plus 300k dmg. you then have players that are nowhere near 75%, with shitty dmg, forced to play in the same dark zone as these geared players.there's absolutely no balance or fairness to it at all, which pushes a lot of players away from even trying it.

oh, and let's not forget that when you die, people steal the shit you worked hard to get. even with a group of 3 others, you still get your shit pushed in by high geared players.

Tim is a meme. Also Jack has always been B list as fuck.

Surely you've seen the copy pasta argument about why D3 sucks. None of the core problems with the game have been addressed except for the RMAH. Pretty sure I don't have the image saved and google is useless sometimes. Basically all stats on items are tied to weapon damage and a character's main stat. It's shallow and gay and terrible and doesn't even begin to hint at the fact there's no build diversity. PoE is a million times better in every conceivable way including graphics and story. Even the developers hate the game and have said that the game is "something to do between WoW raids."

Titanfall will always be the weirdest flop I have ever seen. There will probably never be another game that had everything right, had so much push for it to succeed, and then it just falls right on its face for 0 reason.

People will complain that the "campaign" was only narrated multiplayer missions, but I don't know what they really expect to see for Single-Player. Maybe people will be content about the same thing but able to be played offline, like Battlefront 2, but that wouldn't be enough to be a reason for why the game died.

6v6 with tiny little bots running around was a huge sticking point with people comparing it to other shooters nowadays that have 32v32 or larger, but in-practice, the level design and characteristics of the players/mechs kept any map from feeling empty. Infantry played well into the gamemodes like the bots people miss from Battlefront, and the Spectres added a nice layer on top of that. Anyone who plays Titanfall knows this.

Then people berate the loadout system for not having four dozen options for every facet, but they kept it cut down to nothing superfluous and was able to even make BS like the Smart Pistol balanced with the weapon designs.

Titanfall was a bit light on gamemodes at launch and the lack of custom dedicated servers was a meh aspect, but it got everything else right. The vast majority of any complaints to be had are based on what certain aspects of Titanfall sound on paper, not in practice, but you'd think with 10 million copies sold that people would get the word out.

It's mind boggling, and I hope it doesn't have too much of an impact on how they'll change Titanfall 2

This game is the epitome of wasted potential. Breaks my heart yearly, when I replay it. I'm still holding out hope for a BL2 someday.

I expected a Tim Schafer game to be good. Growing up playing his earlier games, the last actual GOOD one IMO was Grim Fandango.

Psychonauts was ok, but as with other game that isn't just simply an adventure game, has terrible gameplay mechanics.

Uh, no. There were 7 stage battles. It's not the majority of the game, but since they essentially are boss battles, it makes people remember them as being very prominent. Multiplayer was also just stage battles.

I hate to be that fag but I had to look up the list of games he's made and wasn't really impressed.

It had good foundations but little content in terms of volume and other issues among that. (But thats what Titanfall 2 is for. Hype)
