Game is launched! With that, please see this thread with ANY LAUNCH ISSUES! https://www.reddit.com/r/outriders/comments/mh3etc/outriders_launch_info_known_issues_tracking/ Welcome to the Destiny game thread!!!!! Just kidding, this is the Outriders game thread. I'm serious. Just keep reading I typed a lot. Outriders is a video game! It will have a release date and it will be playable! WAHOO! Ok, really, let's get to the brass tax of this. It's been a long time and I'm going to effort this out of hope. Here goes nothin'. Outriders is a story driven RPG-Shooter that will put the player in the shoes of an Outrider, the last hope of the human race trapped on Enoch, a dangerous and untamed planet. The campaign can be played entirely in single player, or in co-op with up to three players. Outriders launches on April 1st, 2021 for the PC, Xboner, PS5 and Stadia and all those consoles and stuff. It'll be crossplay but no cross-save. It's a looter shooter. IT IS NOT GAMES AS A SERVICE (GaaS) with the drip fed content. Supposedly, what this game launches with is what you get. It is made by People Can Fly and they did the noted cool game called Bulletstorm, which, honestly was a good game. This is not very attention-grabby and as a gentleman with one of his beautiful degrees in journalism, I can step this up. Here goes [insert synonym for nothin' in the future here]. All the goon gamers in the world are here. There's an Outriders channel because I am excited for this game that EVEN I WILL GUARANTEE will not be good. But maybe, just maybe, if you wish upon a star, it will be. You're probably already in this discord. I love you all, despite being an absentee dad: https://discord.gg/aYumgUyNd9 DEMO There will be a public demo on February 25th and that's why this thread is already up. The game originally was to launch for this time but they delayed it...twice (from December 2020 to February to April). That's a yikes, but that's what demos are for! Details to come on what the demo entails but we do know: Square Enix, a developer of video games with a 50/50 track record says: quote:Happy New Year. We believe it’s important that players get to experience a new IP like Outriders before release, so that you can decide for yourselves whether the game is something you wish to pre-order, purchase or play. I will see all your bright, smiling faces on 2/25/21, yes, all 10,000 of you, for demo. So we can either praise it or rip it to shreds. Please for the love of Santa be good. Hail Santa, if you're listening. What in the blue heck and hell is Outriders for real though Mr. Icker? I'm assuming you asked this question. Sorry if you actually didn't. It's rude to assume. Hear goes an FAQ: quote:When will Outriders be released?: April 1, 2021 So, there's some really scary stuff in there. Some cool stuff. But, yeah...demo gonna be important. OK, let's carry on so I can keep typing and pressing more buttons. Herre G-O nuthin: THE CLASSES I've recently re-kindled my love for wrestling again and immediately thought of Brian Cage "SURVIVE IF HE LETS YOU". This is this class. Devastator is a close range class that's built to stand your ground. Take point and defend your allies. Ground and foes alike will tremble as you pass. The Devastator can use Class Points to choose along three different class trees. However, the Devastator must first unlock the Devastator Class Trait. Then you can choose yo class and skills. Destiny's Pyromancer escaped the Last City to enter Enoch, and also doing this, left the entire Destiny universe to come to the Outriders universe. Unbelievable to see and very ground-breaking. Pyromancer is a medium range class that can control fire. Cover foes in flames, incinerate entire squads and heal your own wounds as enemies fall to your inferno. The Pyromancer can use Class Points to choose along three different class trees. However, the Pyromancer must first unlock the Pyromancer Class Trait. Pyromancer Class Trait: Grant 15% max health bonus and 10% ability power bonus. Additionally, skills Mark damaged enemies for 15 seconds. Killing a Marked enemy earns 24% healing. Don't quote me on this, but The Technomancer released on Steam and PC back in 2018. Was a really good game. The game makes its return to Outriders on April 1, 2021 as a playable character. The Technomancer is a long-range support specialist that possesses the best healing abilities of all four classes. It also utilizes a wide range of deadly contraptions. The Technomancer can use Class Points to choose along three different class trees. However, the Technomancer must first unlock the Technomancer Class Trait. Technomancer Class Trait: Increase long range weapon damage by 7.5%. Increase skill life leech by 15%. Increase weapon life leech by 15%. Low effort editing on my end on that one Warframe's very own Trickster enters the battlefield and I'll be honest, I'm not seeing anything tricky here at all. It's got a sword. It's very blue. I got to learn more here. Trickster is a close range class that's fast and can easily hit & run targets. Bend the laws of space & time to appear out of nowhere, assassinate your enemies, and return to safety in the blink of an eye. The Trickster can use Class Points to choose along three different class trees. However, the Trickster must first unlock the Trickster Class Trait. Trickster Class Trait: When Shield is active, gain 15% damage mitigation. Heal player for 20% of max health and gain 12% shield for each enemy that died at Close Range. OK, now that you have seen the classes who are all from other games and genres of life, here's more info to wet your whistle. Hr gs nthn: Loot looks like this: Not gonna lie, those look cool. World Tiers look like this: All the way up to 15, which reward Legendary items. These are the expeditions: They go like this: quote:Expeditions are high-end missions available after completing the main campaign. These challenges pit you against the fiercest and most brutal adversaries Enoch has to offer. These are big, hand-crafted new levels that do not recycle content from the main game, featuring unique mechanics and challenges. Hunts are like this: quote:Hunts With all that said, there's a lot of stuff that has still not been revealed. I am so excited for Anthem 2.0utriders and it is going to be a lot of fun. Real talk, I hope this is fun and good. I would love that. But, keep the caution flag up high. It deserves to be VERY high. Last thing I'll post are some videos and screens maybe because those are fun: The Technomancer lots of gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z01fQ0lMw6g Devastator: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8K3s3_d-bRU Pyromancer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvlaoYHxzZQ Trickster: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=issxrCT2JeI Post-campaign content: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cm4fhjU6XaU ICR fucked around with this message at 18:19 on Apr 1, 2021 |

Reserved for additional patches and info and if this game survives. Read the OP and look for all the GaaS games that have launched comparisons. It's humorous. No, seriously.

I am very looking forward to playing this game in the beta and IMMEDIATELY dropping it before release, just like all ICR recommended looter shooters.

I'll play the open beta so I can laugh at how bad it is like Anthem and Avengers, and then follow the discord channel for whatever memes come from it. Like Colossus being a chonky boy.

I'm probably going to buy this game because I have the worst case of brain worms and did gladly buy Anthem and Avengers on their release days.

Okay, the lack of a chat system and yet always online and Square Enix and gently caress! How the gently caress? This thing has Red Flags everywhere, don't loving buy this at launch you idiots, stop enabling them.

DIdn't Square-Enix just release that GaaS Avengers game that was totally loving awful. Who in the world would want to buy this game. I don't really get these ICR threads. Promoting games that we know are going to be lovely, cheerleading them, encouraging people to buy them, even purchasing copies for goons is all just really weird and confusing to me.

This is an external studio title that SE is publishing, avengers is a case of SE getting the marvel license and putting impossible expectations on it. Feel it's worth mentioning that Sleeping Dogs was the same kind of thing.

Every single class skill, with one (1) exception, involves some sort of % increase.

I still legit admire "this is a finished game" is a selling point. Also the class explanation videos were pretty clear and fun.

It has been long enough since I was burned by Anthem that I may be capable of being fooled again. But not by this, ICR. Not by this.

Outriders at least has the advantage of not having a demo at the same time as a vastly superior game (The Anthem vs Division 2 demo off just made Anthem look sooooooo much worse).

Sylphosaurus posted:Man, this game looked pretty promising but then ICR had to dive in and give it the kiss of death I don't look at ICR enthusiasm as a kiss of death, it's more the canary in the coal mine. If a game looked promising to you and the sun god himself descends form the heavens to do a full on tryhard OP for it, you need to stop and reasses. In this case, I'd say just do what a bunch of us are planning to do and just play the beta for free and make your own call. To me it doesn't look particularly bad, it just looks... generic and mediocre? It'll probably play fine and if its a game you've got some friends that are into who knows. Being a beer and pretzel game friends can enjoy has saved many a mediocre game from being true crap.
