Actually I can think of several scenarios where I would pay the current pricing. For example, a game I want is still $45 to buy. If I'm not completely sold on it yet, a $5, 4 hour rental will be enough to know if I want to buy it. If I do, five extra bucks on the purchase price is no big deal. If I don't, it's better to have blown five on it than 45. If I know for sure that I want it, but I know I'll play it once and never touch it again (and I'm too impatient to wait for the price to come down), renting it for $30 is better than buying it for $45 then getting $10 for it when I trade it in.
-
Keep in mind this is still a beta, more games are coming and price structures are probably going to change. If people won't pay those prices Sony will lower them. They've always advertised it as a rental service, which implies that you don't get to keep it.

I don't think anyone debates that soccer is the more popular sport worldwide. American football is king in the US though, inflated viewing stats or no.
-
I'm not entirely sure what either of those articles was supposed to prove...

http://ign.com/videos/2014/08/01/halo-the-master-chief-collection-blur-cinematics-trailer These are only cutscenes but WOW. I'm not going to lie, if there's one game that makes me want an Xbox One, this is it.
-
Nobody here cares. Like Tommy said, not even the major sports shows talk about soccer here.

I think we're talking about two separate issues. 1: How you find players. Personally I have no problem with no matchmaking because I don't think it will be hard to find a group. 2: Whether you fail if someone leaves. I agree that this is dumb, but since it hasn't been confirmed I'm not going to get upset over it. Personally I wouldn't want to get put into a raid that was almost over.
-
How does matchmaking help this?They're not going to change it before launch. The article talks about how they realize that it's a high risk high reward move. Maybe down the line they'll change it, but it won't be for a while.

Randoms can't work together as a team. That's not so much assumption as fact. Maybe it's different on PC but even with every PS4 coming with a mic, probably 80% or more of players don't use them. Raids aren't going to be something you do on a whim; they'll take preparation and planning so I don't see why it would be a big deal to hang out in the tower for 15 minutes to find two more appropriate players.

Bungie talks raids and other endgame content: http://ign.com/articles/2014/07/30/destiny-the-endgame-is-only-the-beginning-ign-first The way I'm understanding it Bungie is saying there's no matchmaking in Raids because the level of communication and teamwork required would be impossible for randoms.
-
Warframe has a similar system with no matchmaking for endgame content; if you want players you go to a recruiting chat channel (which will be the Tower in Destiny). Between that and the Bungie forums it shouldn't be hard to find a party. As far as the auto fail if someone leaves, I'd hold off on the outrage until that's confirmed. I also can't believe they'd do that since some Raids are supposed to be 4+ hours long.

Sony passed on it for PS4, saying it's not a good value for gamers http://ign.com/articles/2014/07/30/sony-passed-on-ea-access-for-ps4-as-its-not-good-value
-
This is actually pretty cool. For $5 a month or $30 a year you get unlimited access to EA's "Vault" of titles. Just on X1 right now but if it makes its way to PS4 I'd definitely look into it http://ign.com/articles/2014/07/29/ea-announces-subscription-service-on-xbox-one-ea-access

Advanced Warfare story trailer + MP 11th August
L_C_Scipio replied to J4MES OX4D's topic in Call of Duty
Can't wait for the MP reveal. I hope this is as awesome as it's looking so far. We need a good shooter. -
Unconfirmed info says that there will be 11 Crucible maps, 32 story missions, and 15 unique Strikes. Plus we know that there will be Raids. http://ign.com/articles/2014/07/28/was-destinys-full-game-content-discovered

Um, not sure what video you watched but IGN gave it a 10... http://ign.com/articles/2014/07/28/the-last-of-us-remastered-review This guy clearly doesn't play PS3 much though, saying L1 and R1 are "unconventional" as aim and shoot. You mean the way 99.5% of all PS3 games do it?

Bungie posted this tweet: "This emblem is your reward for putting boots on the ground of the Destiny Beta today. You'll see it in September."

How was the Moon?
-
I think when the full game is out. It was on Bungie's weekly update: http://www.bungie.net/en/News/News?aid=11963
-
There are public areas and private areas. Public areas will have lots of people running around and events you can join. Private areas, like story missions, are just you and your party (fireteam). If you haven't joined a party you'll be on your own once you enter a private area.
-
The weekly update has a picture of the emblem/callsign you get for playing the beta today
-
In the alpha I found shotguns and fusion rifles to be the way to go, and got killed by shotguns far more than any other type of weapon. Autos were just too weak to be effective. As far as I know everything transfers; your single player character is your multiplayer character. With that being the case, I don't think MP is intended to be "balanced" the way you'd expect from CoD or Battlefield. It's not the focus, single player/co-op is.

The beta is now open on all platforms, no codes required.

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare | Confirmed List
L_C_Scipio replied to Commander_Undies's topic in Call of Duty
I'm sure there will be some sort of system to prevent that. -
The game won't come out on PC until spring at the earliest. Also I think the beta's been up on Xbox for a couple days now.
