I'm probably gonna give this one a miss. Some parts of the beta were fun but the majority were just too exhausting and frustrating. The pacing is just too erratic and combine this with the very basic map design and it just feels like you're running and gunning all the time with absolutely no need for thought or strategy. Doesn't feel like a game that's been made for 4 years - I'm sure the campaign is a decent and highly polished offering but the MP is once again full of questionable design choices, fundamental flaws and lots of frustrations. The spawns on Babylon are probably the worst in the history of COD too

For £700, you don't even get a plastic stand FFS! The disc drive is bad enough but to not get a something you got with the base PS5's that probably costs £2 to land is just the biggest insult in gaming. If you want the device to be peripherally the same as the old PS5, you'll need to spend an extra £100 on the drive and stand alone. Sony also slyly upped the prices of controllers this week. This is the lowest point in gaming since the XB1 VHS reveal.

Another thing I am a bit concerned about is the visibility - the graphics are nice, clean and pretty colourful in places but anyone that's prone appears dead so you practically have to shoot dead bodies to double check or risk being killed by someone laying down. The amount of people that look ragdoll dead but are just camping is crazy and I think this could develop into a real problem unless the animations offers better differentiation. JackFrags posted a video last night where he was camping on stairs and out in the open and players were just walking over him assuming he was dead.

Dr Disrespect Permanently Banned From Twitch
J4MES OX4D replied to J4MES OX4D's topic in General Gaming Discussion
Well Dr Disrespect has returned and has somehow turned everything around to play the victim. He’s clearly spent the last couple of months carefully concocting this extraordinary new narrative and is even claiming some of his admissions previous were deliberate to mislead the media and insider witnesses. It’s just nauseatingly narcissistic and quite astonishing how he’s managed to spin this and it seems many people are falling for it. I can see why he got away with this behaviour and was able to keep it under wraps because of this almost insufferable answer he has to everything. Next up he will probably claim to be suing Twitch, media outlets and certain individuals in a bid to maintain this ‘victim’ momentum and completely flip the situation in his favour. Already people are buying this ‘he was probably set up’ nonsense even though he admitted to everything in his now deleted Tweet.. -
Just finished 3 matches in the open beta and it feels like Cold War on crack. Everything feels really sweaty and erratic. Can be fun but it’s also rather messy. It’s certainly enough of a change over Cold War and the last few COD’s but I actually think Vanguard offered the best pacing and hit reg IMO so it feels a bit of a step back in that respect. Visuals look good as do the animations but i fear the movement will be exploited to hell down the line. I’m tempted to grab this if nothing else floats my boat towards the end of the year but I hope it doesn’t become too exhausting.

Design has been leaked and looks like they are going for the 'Adidas' look🤣

Some decent reviews so far although the campaign and other PvE content seems a bit light and the MP may not have considerable staying power. I may put it on the backburner for the time being and grab it in the sale.

I can't wait to find out how many projects were cancelled for this too. I imagine Bloodborne 2 was one of them.

Concord taken offline after two weeks with refunds to be issued. Concord: Sony pulls shooter from sale two weeks after release - BBC News WWW.BBC.CO.UK Concord reportedly spent eight years being made but it is being taken offline soon after launch. Probably the biggest failure in gaming history and a very expensive one too with it costing an estimated 9-figures and taking 8 years to produce. Absolute catastrophe for Sony and you have to wonder how the game made it this far. LawBreakers was a warning back in 2015 and with many massively established games pre-pandemic being F2P, a £40 hero shooter in 2024 in a over-saturated genre was never going to have any widespread appeal especially with barely any marketing and very unappealing design. They were never going to drag people away from the likes of COD, Overwatch, Valorant, Apex and even Destiny 2 especially with such a steep entry fee. They made no attempt to liaise with the community until a month before release which was fatal and anyone with a functioning brain could’ve told them in 2019 that this would be a bad idea and to give it up. Feel a bit sorry for the devs but they’ve really failed to assess the market in the last 6 years but this is all on Sony for allowing it to happen and taking such a backseat.

UFL - Open Beta 7th-9th June & Impressions
J4MES OX4D replied to GazzaGarratt's topic in Sports / Racing / Beat Em Ups
I've forgot about this game but watched some footage and it honestly looks like a slow version of FIFA with a shoddier presentation. Quite disappointed really because initially the game was full of promise in not doing what EA were doing yet it now looks like a carbon copy and borderline asset flip. Some of the animations look decent though and far less erratic than in FIFA on Frostbite but it all looks a bit cheap -
Game is not doing too well after a promising start XDefiant is 'struggling' claims source as player numbers reportedly plummet METRO.CO.UK Ubisoft shooter XDefiant might result in more layoffs at the company, as sources claim that player numbers are in significant decline. With BO6 imminent, I think it may very well be on the brink and support will be dropped entirely.

PS5 players who overpaid Ubisoft $110 to play the game early now either have to restart their game from scratch or face game breaking bugs down the line that will corrupt their save or progress regardless. I don't have any sympathy really for affected users - you blindly buy into another generic Ubi rip-off and this is what you deserve Early Star Wars Outlaws PS5 players paid $110 only to have Ubisoft issue a new patch and tell them to start a new save file or face game-breaking bugs | GamesRadar+ WWW.GAMESRADAR.COM "If you continue on a prior save you will unfortunately face issues and progression blockers"

Grabbed the trilogy yesterday on GOG but not sure when I'll be able to start RE2. Can't wait to play that though!

Whole game has literally leaked on YouTube the past week. Not sure how this has happened but every map, mode and gun has been seen that will be available at launch. Looks very much like Cold War 2.0 except the maps seem more simple and bland. It's great that there are so many original ones available but it just looks a bit uninspired. I still might grab it and play for a couple of weeks but the franchise feels so tired and the games are all a continuation rather than something entirely new these days.

Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake - Now Confirmed!

The two racist IGN ‘journalists’ who shamefully smeared the developers with dishonest translations about some statements they allegedly made have gone dark on Twitter with one even raging about the games success lmao! They fabricated a hit piece against the devs suggesting they had made some grotesque ‘sexist’ remarks previous but when the reporters were confronted about their blatant deceit, instead of retracting and apologising, they’ve gone private and/or locked their profile. They should be thankful the game has been monumentally successful because their behaviour could’ve easily landed lawsuits against them and IGN. Gaming journalists these days are a fucking disgrace - many are just a bunch of unhinged activists masquerading, who actually hate the industry and gamers whilst abusing their positions to spout such shite and think they can get away with it. Did they really think that no Chinese person on the planet would read their article and provide the real translation? Literally the most brain dead movers imaginable.
