Wait this game is a real thing? I thought this was cancelled.
>>338092275
>pirates couldn't play it so that means it bad
yeah nah
>>338092251
no one asked for this
Is it another Devil's Third situation where the game is actually great, but since THQ isn't around to pay off developers it gets panned?
>>338092584
>devils third
>great
>nintentoddlers are this starved for games
Watched younger brother playing this on PS4. He put an "M249esque" upper on an M4 lower.
Now while I applaud the game for handling different weapons with this swap and shoot mechanic I lost my god damned shit and had to see if it was a thing and to my surprise it was.
tldr my autism flared out and I learned something knew. Game looks like shit though.
>>338092584
Devil's Third is universally considered bad.
>>338092584
are you comparing itagaki with a fucking generic fps game?
>>338092569
I didn't ask for it and I had no idea it was even a thing until today.

>>338092718
Let me take a wild guess and claim you have not played it.
>a new homefront game came out
oh
>>338093012
I bought, played and finished it multiple times when it released on the Japanese e-shop on my Japanese WiiU, I've played it far more than enough to know why it's bad. If you want to argue about it I'm down for that, it's pretty easy to rattle off all the problems with the game and only a fucking moron would defend it.
>>338093158
>finished it multiple times
>i think it's bad
you seem to suffer from asperger's syndrome.
>>338092584
Devil's Third is garbage. Homefront series is shit as well.
>>338092251
>What went so wrong?
Making a sequel to Homefront.
>>338092251
it's out??? No advertising or anything. DOA
>Homestuck game comes out
>Only good part is the arcade machine with 2 levels from Timesplitters on it
>>338092251
It has the name Homefront
>>338092251
>What went so wrong?
The first one was a complete disaster. Whoever gave the go ahead for another should be fired.
>>338093296
>form an opinion based on experience
>aspergers
You're right, I should just rate everything based on hearsay and parroting in future.
>>338093296
You can still enjoy something even if it's objectively bad. I got all ending in Nier, repetitive as fuck but I still dug it.
>>338092251
>make a sequel to one of the most ill-performing shooters ever made
That's what I'd call a pretty big mistake

>trusting ''professional'' reviewers
>trusting user reviews that literally anyone can write
I never played the first game or really wanted to play this one, but you can't go by reviews. The ones that get paid to review games are in the industry enough to have friends that are devs, they get free shit from companies all the time, their dev friends might not like other devs, they will give a game a bad score based on personal political leanings, etc. User reviews get raided by 0s and 1s and/or 10s.
If I can't make up my mind based on trailers and controlled gameplay they release, I just watch a no commentary playthrough on youtube after the game comes out to see if the game interests me and runs properly.
>>338093906

>>338092251
What, since when did this come out? I remember it got announced a few months ago and that's it. Almost no hype or marketing around it.
>>338094053
This.
Any nigger that says ME1 is better than 2 needs to be punched in the dick.
>muh story
>muh atmosphere
>muh arr pee gee
ME1 played like goddamn dogshit.
>>338093906
You would think they'd learn what mistakes were made though. And because of how bad the game was, it wouldn't have gotten a sequel in the first place.
The game feels like a early 360 title at some points. Not in terms of graphics, but just how it plays.
I watched my friend play it and it just looks like garbage. They did nothing to advertise it's release before hand.
>>338094039
56 is literally mediocre. Its about half way between 0, shit, and 100, GOTY. So yes, its mediocre.
>>338092251
Wow, a sequel to a mediocre pile of garbage is also a mediocre pile of garbage.
What a surprise.

Reminder that there are two fully playable and complete Timesplitters 2 single player levels available in this game.

The game is fun. If you have played it you would have known this. Instead you get on your knees and have media blast warm reviews all over your face.
>>338094154
ME1 is better that 2 in my opinion.
>>338094039
90+ - Outstanding
85-89 - Great
80-84 - Good
75-79 - Okay
74 or lower - Mediocre
Raise your standards.

73 is medicre? What planet are you on? People like you are the reason why the rating system these days are fucked. Pre 2005 7/10 was actually considered good, because that's what a 7 actually represents.
>>338094421
>people actually praising this fucktarded "rating system"
Drink bleach ASAP.
>>338094286

>>338092569
I did, Homefront's multiplayer was enjoyable.
>>338094363
this just makes me sad
>>338094373
Or I just, y'know, look at the game and come to my own conclusions.
>>338094695
Anything below 8/10 is garbage not worth playing.
>>338093885
They deserved it after the last Red Faction
>>338094695
Yes, 73 is mediocre. If you got 73 on an exam or a test, you should be disappointed, not proud. Unless you're American maybe where they would probably praise you endlessly for just finishing the exam.
>>338094742
No.

Explain? Uncharted 2 improved upon everything, Uncharted 1 was the weakest of the lot by far. Hell, U2 is almost everybodys favourite of all the games.
>people hate crytek
WHY
>>338095096
You're implying Uncharted was a good series in the first place.
>>338095096
It was still a shitty moviegame famalam
>>338094965
But this isn't school, 5/10 used to mean average, not too bad,not too great. Should go back to that desu.
>>338094587
Mass Effect was never a pure RPG. It was always described and advertised as an TPS/RPG hybrid.
The only things ME1 did well were narrative and world-building/atmosphere. Everything else had issues.
>clunky as fuck controls
>only classes worth a damn were Soldier and Adept
>barren and bland planet exploration
>whole bunch of useless stats
>stupid Morrowind Syndrome bullshit where you shoot a guy 3ft away but miss because of stats
>choices that meant fuck-all, save for Kaiden/Ashley
As a narrative and new universe, it did very well. But as a game, it had some real issues.
>>338094154
Literally the only improvement was shooting. They fucked up by adding the reload mechanic and a universal cooldown for skills. ME1 is superior.
>>338095184
>>338095201
Okay, I guess we'll just pretend that the series isn't actually popular and isn't actually award winning then because we're on /v/
>>338094742
but it's the only system that makes sense.
If you play enough excellent games, then "mediocre" games start to become relatively shit, if not abject shit
>>338094363
if they can put 1/5th of the single player in a little easter egg for some completely unrelated game then how hard can it possibly be to make current gen ports of the games, fucking Crytek

ah yes, your opinion is better than everyone elses.
>>338094883
It is easy to cherry pick bad parts, but the game is no where near as bad as reviewers claimed it was.
>>338095540
you got a source that crytek no longer owns the rights to time splitters buddy?
>>338095748
Well yes in my mind my opinion is better. What's your point? Everyone has an opinion and that's mine.
>>338094965
This isn't school you stupid faggot.
>>338095184
Yes, I am

It sure is when the game is full of them.
>>338095290

Infiltrator was OP as fuck. At least I think that's what it was called. The sniper one.
>>338095962

Turns out making a lousy knock-off of Modern Warfare isn't going to get people to buy your lousy game.
>>338095873
>first boss of the game is that fucking awful
>just cherry picking bro! game is great!
>>338095898
Oh, my mistake, Crytek still does own Timesplitters. Shows how little they care for it if they'll just let another publisher slap content from it into another game.
>>338094847
Then you'll be pleased to know this only has coop
>>338093885
At least Nordic's making Darksiders 3.
>>338096518
Crytek is absolute cancer now anyway, all they have going right now are 2 VR games and some literal who moba but apparently there's not enough interest in Timesplitters for a sequel or even a simple rerelease
>>338096632
Sheeeeeit
From what I've seem, it's basically a mediocre fps with ubisoft open world mechanics
so yeah, it's shit
>>338096054
Why should I? If I followed your retardedly skewed standards I would've missed out on godhand.
>>338092251
All I remember from the first is
>run speed is slow as shit
>weapons have zero recoil
>shit story
>narrow FOV
Multiplayer fixed the FOV, and was pretty enjoyable though.
IIRC homefront is by the guys who did the modern combat mod for Battlefield 1942, which made it more disappointing.
>>338092569
I like the idea of Far Cry but in occupied america but I don't trust the game enough to buy it for more than like £5
>>338097337
It's not an exact science, but it's a general outline on what different metascores typically mean.
>>338094151
After the disaster that was the promotion for the first game I think they were too afraid to do anything
>>338097395
>Far Cry but in occupied america
Eh, I'll pirate it
>>338092251
they've done a division like mmo mrpg from what i understood so it'shit

>Age of Empires was bad for it's time
>>338095748

It's nothing like that at all apart from the setting kind of, what the fuck
Who are the invaders in homefront again, Korea?
Can I switch sides for a corean gf?
Fuck the US desu
>>338098005
Unpopularity doesn't mean something is good either.
It's a mix of being rushed and doing nothing really new with the Far Cry 3 formula, so just wait until there's a sale and it's okay
>>338098426
Good thing nobody said it did.
Don't fucking claim "well lots of people like Uncharted so clearly it's good" as an argument of its quality because popularity as an argument just makes you a shit eating pleb
>>338096152
Judging by his apparent lack of intelligence, I'd say so.
>>338098426
No shit.
>>338098771
Lots of people think Uncharted is good. More so than people who think it's bad. I agree with them, but I respect your opinion.
>>338092251
NOBODY ASKED FOR IT
IT HAILS FROM A SHITTY SERIES
THIS WAS EXPECTED BY ANYONE WITH A BRAIN
>>338098907
You can agree with them but using them as your argument is shit.
Explain why it's good otherwise. I don't even hate those games for shit like "being too cinematic" since I haven't actually played them to form that opinion. But arguing popularity should not be accepted.
wow fucking entitled gamers thinking they deserve a good game..........
You know what, thinking about the game rating system in terms of education it makes sense
100-90 is awesome
90-80 is good
80-70 is ok, apply yourself though
70-60 needs some serious work
60-0 is shit
Do any game review sites just use A-F for a rating system?
>>338099264

the devs worked really hard on this and we should just enjoy it.........
>>338099180
>I haven't actually played them
Oh, okay. Opinion discarded.
>>338092584
Mathewmatosis played this on a stream. And he was hammered and drunk and pointed out all the flaws the game had. It was too fucking awful. I feel bad for him.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWceXO-gZ-0
>>338099475
Notice I never said they were bad. I just want you to argue why they're good without appealing to popularity. I know you have it in you anon!
>>338099318
This.
Anything below an 80 needs at least some improvement. Anything below 75 needs a lot. Assuming you agree with the score numerically.
>tfw homefront will never be good enough for Freedom Fighters 2 to come out and challenge it
When's the nearest exit from life
>>338092584
this is the absolute worst meme of the year to be honest, I don't understand how anyone can even like this shit
>>338099561
I like the characters, I like the stories (I like treasure hunting stories in general), I like the graphics, I like the platforming, I like taking in the scenery, I like immersing myself in the game, the MP is fun. I'd say I like the gameplay but what constitutes "gameplay" is a divisive argument, so I'll hold back on that. It's just fucking fun.
>>338092251
>cis white traitor killed a nigger woman in the opening cutscene
There's your answer why this game is hated
>>338099789
I genuinely think it's just one deluded guy. I've seen it in a bunch of threads for bad games.
Even Nintendrones come out to tell him it's shit when he does this.
>>338099880
At no point in any of that did you explain why you enjoy it. You listed off a bunch of generic elements present in most modern video games and then tagged a generic human emotion on to the end.
Youre the textbook definition of a casual pleb. Unable to form any of your own opinions and basing everything off general popularity. Youre a fucking parasite on civilization as a whole.
Literally nobody gave a shit about the first game and asked for a second game, that's what
>>338100101
It's a good game, but NoA was fucking retarded for charging $60 for it.
I think that's a tad different than thinking it's great. It's too fucking budget to be great.
>>338099880
you do understand simply saying you like something isn't an argument at all right?
Played at beat it on PC, tons of glitches esp with AI pathfinding aside it's an OK game
switching the parts on your weapons seems kinda cool I guess. Rest looks totally uninspired.
>>338100231
First of all, I'm not even the person you were talking to at first (this guy >>338098426 and >>338095748)
Second of all, do you want me to spoonfeed you while I like the good graphics, the platforming? Why I like the good scenery? Why it's fun to immerse myself? You asked me explain without appealing to popularity, and I did. I never even did that in the first place. Play the game yourself, you might see why I like it. Until then your opinion on the quality or lack thereof of the game is irrelevant.
>>338100101
unsurprisingly there's 3 pages of the same image all with the same size, filename and resolution all calling it a good or underrated game, holy kek
>>338092251

>>338101190
yeah, something that isn't the absolute most generic response would be quite nice
>1st game is garbage
>2nd game is garbage

>>338092251

You're not using the term correctly.

94-90 Amazing

Anything below 59 is really just varying degrees of shit.
You have shit like this in your game pretty much asking for pity for a shit game
>>338101262

Hahaha. The guy doesn't have an ounce of credibility. How many videos has he put out since he got a Patreon, again?
The problems with the game amount to nothing more than 'it has glitches.' That's it. It actually has really good boss fights for a shooter.
