 TOMORROW IS THE BIG DAY Ok, let's try this again...because today was supposed to be the day but welllllllllll Anyway, tomorrow is the big day! Now, I have two big things I want to state: 1) If you're playing this game, now is the time to join the discord. Community is important, and it's especially important to me. It's in the OP at the very top. You won't miss it. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter to me if you go there or go to another discord to play with others. This game is all about multiplayer and I'll be talking across all the millions of goon discords to help people who have any questions about this game. Everybody, please find a great home and make friends. I will do everything in my power to make sure you enjoy your experience. With that said, if you do join the discord in the OP, the rules are simple. Be kind, be nice, be cool and don't even think about calling people names. Me and about 20 mods will ban you real quick. You can poo poo on anything you want, but not people. We don't do that.  With that said, let's play together. No console war poo poo, none of that. We have PC gamers, Xboxers and PS4 goons and we all have one thing in common: We want to play this game and talk about it. If you want to spoil anything, you need to type || before and after it in discord. Ex: ||I saw Dumbledore appeared in this and kissed Matthias wow unbelievable||. We can stop spoiling March 1st. IN THE THREAD: If you're gonna spoil stuff, again, use the spoiler tags. Let's be respectful. 2) The goon friendships you make along the way...man, I cherish those. I cherish them a lot as a matter of fact. These are guys and gals I play with across many games and just strike up conversation with. Many of us have been goons for a long time, so we have gotten to know each other, directly and indirectly. Mercurius donated a copy of Anthem for me to giveaway and I want to say thank you for that. So, here's the deal. Really easy stuff: If you want it, you can PM me here or on discord by CLOSE OF BUSINESS SUNDAY. That's right, 5PM Baby!! But in that PM, I want you to send me one thing: "What should the name of our very first guild be when those launch?" The kicker: It must be chonk related, because that's the theme. Ex: (and don't use this). Chonk Industries. Chungus Industries. Chungus Amongus. Etc. So with that said, it's a huge day tomorrow for a lot of us. And I'm ready to dive in with my homies and experience what I hope is a great game ahead. LET'S GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EightDeer posted:From what I've read, if you only care about single player, Anthem isn't really for you. Correct? So, here’s what I would say: This game is advertised as a multiplayer game. It’s absolutely meant to be played with others. There is content later that will absolutely be tough to solo. But you can absolutely do the entire story, which is roughly 20 hours they have said, solo. You will always be in a group with others (you just may not see them). Well, you can play privately, but by default, you’re “matchmaking”. The entire game has matchmaking for every activity. So sure, you don’t have to talk to an entire person for your entire journey if you don’t want to. But it’s absolutely meant to be played with others.

First hour impressions I’m gathering reading the discord and watching one stream: This game is running GREAT on old machines. It’s very destiny-like in the fact that a 1060 with 8gb ram is letting a guy like Prel run this on ultra. Sorry to name drop you my dude. Ramadu has a 970 and he is getting 45-64 FPS in game. That’s a BIG step up from the demo and relieves some of my biggest fears. Game is running excellent. The 9AM LOG IN was rough but now that that is “over”, we are all really enjoying the first moments. That’s a good sign. Should have more objective feedback as we go through but so far so good!

Gasoline posted:Wow, that is an insane improvement over the demo. Flying feels great, and it runs really, really well. Did not expect this. None of us did. We all expected the shittiest launch ever. So this is a huge sigh of relief.  And the LoD Gun you get when you beat the Prospero mission. This isn’t a spoiler so I’ll just post it. You all know this is it from your preorder/Premier:  I couldn’t be happier for the performance. And best of all, there’s more optimization and KBM improvements coming for the day one patch on 2/22. The demo truly was just that lovely. Forget that garbage. Run the game now!

I’m at work until late evening and gym time but yeah, I’m just reading the discord move a mile a minute and trying to capture the good and the bad. Only thing we all can agree on from a bad perspective is town still sucks. It still REALLY sucks. The outside world though is primo. And the fact we can all enjoy this game uninterrupted is showing this game is fun!

Yeah the text chat was a huge miss. I personally voiced my concerns as many others did in the filthy Reddit discord and did get some conversation out of BioChris about it. It’s coming, and hopefully soon. They did update the roadmap yesterday just FYI and explained the social improvements coming. Something about Competitive PvE (roundabout) was stated and improving the social integrations period. Fingers crossed. Right now, if I had to give my complaints, it’s easy: 1) UI/Menus blows. I’ll judge more on 2/22 as improvements are coming then. Don’t know if they’ll be monumental but any upgrade is appreciated. 2) Fort Tarsis blows. Yep, if I didn’t have to ever come here again, I would welcome it. The slow movement doesn’t help. 3) Social integrations: See above. 4) Overall general missing features. But I can live without them for now. I get it’s a launch and these games improve over time. So no character stat sheet, for instance, I will be all right with for now. 5) The bugs. Go figure, there’s bugs. Load screen issues for some still, rubber banding, etc. it’s WAY less than the demo at least. WAY LESS. But for those experiencing it, I feel for them. Sorry your experience isn’t 100%. Overall, the experience has been received positively. I would say for every complaint, there’s 9 people saying “this is a lot of fun”. And keep in mind, we are judging this game at levels 3, 7, 10, 20, etc. Most of us haven’t touched endgame features or gotten the fun loot. Goobusters, to answer your question, it seems like Destiny 2s launch. Got a lot to add of course, but gameplay is very fun. It’s slick, and I think for anybody who enjoys a game like that, you make some adjustments here (this is more skill heavy as opposed to gun heavy) and soak in the scenes and loot and well, you’ll have a good time. This game is a 3rd person diablo-like. That’s the best way I can describe it.

So this to me is the best post I’ve seen about this game and I’ve spent a lot of time just reading feedback and all that, as I want this game to really succeed. I think it will, but it’s got a lot of kinks to work out. A lot. But gameplay, as I’ve overstated annoyingly I’m sure, is not one of them. https://www.reddit.com/r/AnthemTheGame/comments/arc62x/beautiful_game_world_amazing_combat_atrocious/?st=JS8C22S0&sh=f352d1dd quote:Before i begin i hope this community understands the difference between sharing feedback and bashing the game. I am not bashing the game, i am enjoying it but man are some aspects really frustrating. I need the team at BioWare to really make some magic happen in these first 90 days. Luckily, there’s enough to do and enjoy while we are subbed. I think these first 90 days are critical to the game’s health and longevity. It’s fun, I’m still in its corner because we got plenty to do for now but the misses are very obvious and a lot of the gaming community sees that now. Enjoy what we got right now. But let’s see how this gets developed. Stay cool.

I just want to add, just to help those who want to add a little more life to this, there’s like, 170 of us in discord and grouping shouldn’t be easy. And it’s super chill and nobody gives a gently caress if you suck. The best way to try to iron out some of the bonehead stuff in this game is just play with goons. It usually breathes life in. Just want to help with the experience.

Harrow posted:I'm pretty sure Gasoline's right. It was even slower in the demo specifically because of asset streaming issues. I’ll confirm this is correct. They made a comment about this about 2-3 weeks ago and while they do want to speed this up, they’re...trying to figure out how to do this without basically breaking their game.

Dennis McClaren posted:So should I shell out my hard earned $64 to get this game? $15. Origin Premier. Don’t spend $64 when it’ll be $30 in a couple months. That’s what EA does. We enjoy the game but you can’t ignore many of the issues. We play both sides: it’s fun and exciting. It’s also very frustrating too. But do know most of us dropped $15 to play the first 30 days and dive deep. If you want to play now, drop $15. If you want to wait, it’s not a bad idea at all. That’s your play!

Hey, just posting for those who participated in the giveaway recently: By the way, I forgot to mention, so I’ll announce it here while I’m in between sets at the gym: we had a donated copy of Anthem for a giveaway so I used that in the thread to take clan name suggestions. We had about 8 people suggest names and the winner was JSpanky with the name Chonkaholics Anonymous. It got a good laugh out of me and some guys I shuffled names around to. Just want to say thank you to those who participated and offered some cool and good names. Congratulations Spanks! Carry on!

Chickenwalker posted:I think the most telling thing (aside from playing this dogshit game and immediately realizing it's dogshit) is that SUN GOD AVATAR is posting conspicuously way less. I’m still here! I read every page. I’m just getting and seeing other discussion in discord that relates to the game instead of what we already know. From the good posts to the bad posts here, it’s all good. I just know that right now, nobody could post a build question or lore question and probably get a straight answer without a possible attack. And again, this is fine. It’s all good, it really is. It’s not my place to attack/defend/mod anywhere here. Those who want to poo poo on the game have every right to do so. Those who want to defend it as something they like can too. We’re goons at the end of the day and I at least never want to divide us. I guarantee many of us will cross paths in another game and maybe things will be different. So, I’m chillin. My other game I love (Div 2) has a launch soon too so I’m splitting time just like I intend to when it launches. It’s kinda perfect timing really because I do like Anthem and it’ll get more of my time eventually, just not yet as the devs hopefully work some things out. I can bounce between the two for content and as things all iron out between both games. I’m a sucker for loot games, both good and bad. God drat you, Diablo, when I was a child.

The one thing I hope a game like Div 2 does, a game that is going to rock the house and put a death knell out to some other games (yeah I said it suck it World!!!!!!) is it hopefully can create some spark in games like Destiny 2 and this. Competition is good and can hopefully boost some ideas or some additions or create pressure to bounce back. It’s no secret there’s some hobby games out there, both new and old, that need to know they’re on the chop block and they can easily rebound if they just get it together. We’ll see what happens!
