The paid DLC seems to be where most development studios are going. While micro-transactions are incredibly annoying, this allows the studio to continue paying their employees for the work they do. Also, Arnie did his work well before the trial weekend, you know he didn’t do that shit for free, they are going to make that money up somewhere. It was also planned well before all the bugs that have been identified. Surely Illfonic will get the bugs fixed over time. If they dont, then players should walk away to prove the point about their unfinished game. Sony is the publisher of the game, they are invested in this to see a finished product, don’t give up yet.
Ive tried to defend this game, i really have. Illfonic, please read.
Right, and paid DLC is fine, when you publish a full WORKING game…
Not this Alpha stage mess where people spend literal HOURS in ques… before they find a game, even as FT. With only 3 maps (which is nearly unheard of), under the promise of “Oh dont worry. free content is gonna come in the first month”.
And then that turns out to be something i could of made in 30 mins with a voice changer in my bedroom.
Audio logs is NOT content… Its barely extras.
I agree, two free audio logs is bullshit, hopefully there is more than that. They need to fix bugs, I have hope since the game has been out three weeks, they are diligently working on a fix. If a majority of bugs aren’t fixed before or during DLC launch people should leave to prove the point of fix your game.
See, people got me a little wrong here, I dont want people to leave to prove a point, that never works because it backfires and the game is already dead by that point.
I want the devs to wake the fuck up and do something before this sinks. Even if they said tomorrow something along the lines of they acknowledge the issues, and are working on them. That’d be enough, then i could justify it.
But dont fool yourself, the audio logs are ALL we’re getting for free, they’ve already said. In fact thats the only thing they’ve said. Because Selling Dutch and his custom gun means more right now to Sony than anything else.
Thats the issue. If devs were able to see that they;'d make more money long run by launching decent products, than half assed things pulling at our fan-based heart strings, knowing we’d defend it no matter how lacking…
Then maybe we’d finally get a decent game.
Like i said I defended the state of this because of the “free content this month”, expecting i dunno… not even new weapons or anything, but maybe a couple more skins to earn? Maybe a new map? But no… some pathetic audio logs.
its a fucking joke, and anyone defending it at this point needs to look at EA, and how they work, and if you cant see the similarities here, well your gaming life is gonna be full of disappointments.
They got money from EPIC, you won’t get a pot of support. Refund, move along. These devs don’t care.
Yeah they don’t care just like they didn’t care about Friday the 13th, this company is useless , basically scamming people they have no intention of fixing anything ,this game has been out for weeks it’s still broken , and I’m in australia , had it since launch and not got to play as predator once , 25+ minute wait times.for a single game as predator and usually 15 mins for fireteam
Don’t forget you can always ask for a refund and stop playing the game. 🤷🏻♂️
A lot of people are fkn cry-hard snot nosed kids who feel like $40 entitles them to a lifetime supply of happyness and a Illfonic intern servant to pat them on the back and tell them everything is going to be okay 1000 times every day on the forums. I only have 50 hours in this game and i honestly am fine if I never play it again. $40 is nothing for a fun game for a week.
You and people like you are literally the reason that before 2010, we got full games, now we get 'alpha’s. and thats all we can hope for.
And I cant get a refund, because ive played more than 2 hours… But nor would I want to, you really need to go re-read my posts here. This isnt a rage quit, this is a last ditch attempt to try and get the devs to give a fuck.
It has nothing to do with entitlement… I paid £31 for this, under the promise that they;'re gonna build free content into it… So when they come out with voice tapes, that aint good enough. Im not entitled… Im owed. (and so are you).
Alright i’ll read your whole post.
I’ve had cups of water in my room longer than you have played this game, and still drank them before taking my cup into my kitchen. You can wait a tiny bit longer for a reply.
They posted the Dutch DLC in the forum Announcements BEFORE the EW release of the content. If you didn’t see it before hand that isn’t their fault. Their client is run through Epic they probably don’t get to have all their news on the front page every time they do something.
I still haven’t listened to the tapes, I haven’t had time to play the game since the update. Maybe the tapes are a clue as to more and better content later? Regardless what do you want them to do? Here is a new game out for three weeks. HERE ARE NEW MAPS AND GUNS AND CLASSES. That isn’t how any company does DLC free or paid for.
100% correct
100% correct
I challenge you to get a FT together, a full group of 4 and play together for a day. Go to GiantChiprel’s twitch stream and ask him to do private matches. You can destroy ppl all day in quick play, he will still 8 out of 10 times destroy you like you haven’t every played before.
100% correct
100% correct
The paid DLC was in the works before the game was released. As other people have said, the voice acting had been done months in advance. This is probably the first few steps they pitched to sony and they are probably required to keep this time frame.
The game will probably still sink, but there will always be a few die hard fans that will push through the bugs and the nonsense and in a few months or maybe even a year there will be a reasonable game out that people might want to play. Also i already said that Illfonic posted the Dutch DLC before EW published the article. They did this in the Announcements section of the forum.
I partially agree with you on this part i’m not sure because i don’t have friends that play on PS4.
I hope that we can all understand that i’m not trying to turn a blind eye to Illfonic, i’m simply 1000x more patient than 99% of this forum.
Sidenote im going to have to check out this giantchiprel !
He is really good. I played him with a team of 4 for about 2 hours or so back to back to back games over and over. I think we won once. xD He is a monster.
Ok so i dont have the time to quote every point, so ill answer each one in bullet points.
-
If you’ve kept a glass of water in your room for over 4 days and still drank it, you’re a scruffy cunt and probably need to focus on fixing your life rather than posting on game forums.
-
They didnt post anything on their official site or forums before it was done via a middle man.
-
The fact that its tapes… is the issue, i dont give a shit if its Dutch’s biography on them, thats not IN GAME content, thats extra menu bullshit. “A clue for content later?” Lol. Where we’re you when EA needed you to defend their loot box scandal.
-
And the promise of new content as an appease to the little content they start with, is kinda implied. No… its necessary, which is why this games rating is sinking fast.
-
Yeah i know im right on bugs and exploits… but again thats not really the focus here as you’ve depicted.
-
We;ve destroyed every pred… in premades, on every map. Its not even a challenge, and no he couldn’t… lol. But if he wants to take me up on that, then go ahead and make the arrangements. We’re on a 63 win streak over 3 days now. Its literally like the game is to collect purple gems, and squat the annoying fly that bugs us while doing it.
-
Again this next point… is entirely my point. Game devs should develop with passion, not deadlines. Thats how nearly every MASSIVE money making game started.
-
Ofc its gonna sink, its got cucks like you trying to defend incompetence.
-
And yeah no shit, the last point it is fraud. But again, im not trying to shit talk and sink the game, im trying to get the community to see theres an issue, pressure it, and push for a save.
What a way to respond. You know what? In that case - stay salty bitch. Nobody cares.
As a fact - it’s obvious u still gonna be playing this game once the patches drop. Get real, clown.
Read the full thing
and maybe check the other post where we had a long debate before he copied and pasted his reply into here.
Read what? It was literally your first reply to a dude who didn’t even offended you and actually gave legit points. You just straight up insulted him like any other clown in this place.
First world problems, eh?
Since i don’t reply to name calling and insults i’m going to ignore your first point there as it’s irrelevant. The point was to show you you have a short attention span and want immediate results. But it’s fine you can insult me all you want.
Second
Clearly shows that Illfonic posted this the same day the EW came out. (I highlighted it so you can keep track of what I am talking about)
Third, content you don’t care about is still content.
Four, creating new content takes time. Maybe they want to actually look at what people would like in the game before setting off and paying people to create new content? How can they develop content they don’t know you want or don’t want?
Six, i’ll be watching his stream for you and your bois to get destroyed by him, please, please send me a message or post on here to let me know so i don’t miss it.
Seven, you’re right. Devs should create with passion. Deadlines however are what makes the dream possible both with monetary compensation and honest feedback like yours.
Again, Like i said, it was spill-over from another topic where he copied and pasted his argument, after i spent like 30 mins debating with him…
Funny thing is, he now agrees with me lmao.
-
The same day yeah, but about 3 hours later… And it wasnt a personal attack as such, you just told me you drink water thats been sat there for 4 days, thats literal pond water. Gross…
-
Who really cares about audio logs? Sure they’re cool, they build story, they’re nice, but they are extras at best… NOT playable content… Dont accept that shit.
-
Yeah content does take time, but they shouldn’t of promised free content, if they cant do it. If sticking some dude in a shed with a mic (even arny) is their idea of content, then we’re screwed.
-
You missed five.
-
Like i said, hook us up. Its been a while since we’ve fought a decent pred, and even then they dont do much. (because they cant since balance is out the window).
-
All the best classics in the last 20 years, wouldnt of been done, if we had todays model of game development. It just wouldnt… But we (you) need to stop enabling them. Hold their ass over the fire like EA was over Battlefront, and it’ll stop. Keep making excuses for audio logs (which in my 20 years of gaming is the most dilute interpretation of ‘content’ ive ever seen) then its gonna continue down this shit path.
You’re a child
