A small patch landed yesterday just before we started playing to drop the new Paris map for everyone. We played it a few times and it seemed a decent Assault map, with the first point harder to take against a well co-ordinated team holding the choke point just ahead of the point. One of the better map additions on first play through me thinks. Not sure what you guys thought@LordBaguette @crispymorgan @Greboth?

Yeah, AngryJoe did a pick of a mission and loading screens and its ridiculous tbh. Apparently a patch will come soon to reduce the delay but not for the proper Day 1 release this Friday. Also, I found Datto's review pretty good.

I didn't realise this was in beta but I'm super glad its crossplay. Similar to Warframe, I want to try it but it may be easier to play these type of games on the Switch initially. I'll have to see how it links your friends together across platforms as I'd like to learn it with a few of you that still play it @Horrible_Hector @Capn_Underpants @igotmollywhopped. Still, the GOTY (old jokes die hard) is a great addition to the Switch.

I don't care. That's me all over. Just can hide it a little more in DriveClub 😀

That's because of my Brexit link 😂😂

I do too. I can't deny like the visual opening of a surprise but RNG hurts everyone and can make you feel depressed AF if you want something, thus pushing your mind to think, fuck it I'll buy it. I wish they could do it in a way that was guaranteed in some way by X hours or X challenges you get everything. Seems fairer for the effort you put in. I don't think I'll ever buy one. Separately though, I'd like to look at that League Play, in a clearly non-sweaty type of way. I like competitive play but if I don't win it ain't the end of the world. Would be cool to try it out with a few people.

😂😂 you weren't too abrasive, you didn't mean any harm as you're only speaking the truth about what's going on. I don't come from your angle though. I'm not thinking we're in a state of disarray. I look at Brexit and everyone saying the world is gonna end if we don't leave. Now we're trying to leave, what's happened? Nothing. I don't feel any different and I chose to remain. I'm not concerned either as we'll deal it either way. The people that wanna moan will still moan. That's just life. My want from games is more on a small scale for me. I want to selfishly know I'll get hours of game time out of it and there's objectives to chase and complete. The biggest thing for me though is finding games I can have some fun with my mates. This game has some potential in that, after seeing the reviews it is a game that can deliver some good grouping up options. The worry is for me the endgame isn't enough for everyones playstyle. Destiny 2 shown that when they dumbed down their progression to endgame and then we were left with 5 Powerful objectives for months which could be done in an hour. I'm where Biron is right now but I know sometimes I get swayed by, "I love games, I want a new game". If that happens then I'll consider it. To me, I don't want to change buying games in the marketplace, it's how games are maintained going forward. I wont buy their DLC if its shit and everyone doesn't wanna play it. I've only ever pre-ordered one game. Destiny 2. I've only bought their DLC because I enjoy their content. If they show willingness here, I want to be more willing to show the love back however, I'm agreeing with your view that if its isn't worth playing I wont give them further money. I just wont stop buying games because they need to change their business models (also, I'll be bored to fuck as I wont buy any MP games taking that approach). Focused efforts on not supporting their monetization is the way I like to focus my efforts in games. After all this. Will I buy the game for £60? Hell no. Will I buy the game for £43 which I've found (30% reduction) - possibly but still not sure. We're derailing the endgame anthem thread a little so whilst I'm trying to answer your gaming world discussion, I'm still trynna keep this relevant to Anthem. P.S. ideally, I just want my Sega cartridge games back which probably are worth far less than £60 as it's not maintained and they have about 8 levels but that's how my mind works and I know it won't happen anytime soon 😘 P.P.S. I did not want to buy Division 1. You told us to buy it because you said it was great, so I bought it regardless of what content or business model they had at the time. We all have different drivers to buy games and that's okay. 😀

True. Will stick up a new thread for this as I've grabbed the picture from treyarch website.

Thing is, I'm with your sentiment. I get it. I just don't believe that me, one person spending £43 (cos I wont buy it for 60) will make a difference. I cant start the revolution. I'm just being a realist. It's got to be down to will I have enough to play in the game for value for money. I base that alot on hours played but I get we're all different. I must admit though based on how I've always been, If this does get a paid DLC later on, those decisions take alot for me to be persuaded. Before I met you and FG peeps I'd never bought a DLC in my whole life. Still now, the only ones I've bought is a map pack for cod and Destiny xpacs. Even Destiny's ones though are bothering me if they keep their business model. Back to Anthem, we don't actually know if they will introduce a paid DLC at some point. So I have to weigh up will I get enough playtime from 43 quid. I might. I'm still debating that but its kind of down to others buying it too.

What. The. Fuck.

I'm on it dude, it's been far too long.

I watch some Mtashed stuff and he put up a video 24 hours after his initial review which really confirms the repetitive issues. Now we all know every looter shooter has repetitiveness as it's about doing them again and again until you get the loot you want (and challenging yourselves of course). But I think it's just going to start suffering from Day 1 content that people breeze through, leaving Strongholds and some foreplay stuff to do. I still like the look of it and based on me looking to play multiple games so not this exclusively this shouldn't really be an issue. Problem comes with most only having enough money for 1 AAA game in the next few months. Original video 24 hours later

Play for no longer than 2 hours then and bring your worst Dad jokes ever. Maybe we should have a night where we try a ton of different modes, maybe even some of the character ones too instead of just cars. We wont know if we don't try.

You say that but The Punisher and some of the other TV series they've made (Luke Cage too but that's based on others views as I haven't watched it) were gaining momentum. I agree it would be cool to see more DC stuff but they continue to be a let down. The latest Teen Titans looked piss poor.

You busy at the weekends now?

The last of the Marvel series have now been cancelled, allowing them to be moved or completely stopped in production from Disney's perspective. I really hope that the Disney service or whatever they're planning will be accessible across other platforms and integrated services. I cba paying another subscription to watch Marvel shows via another TV series. A sad day considering The Punisher was really hotting up in Series 2.

They really are. Them and Spurs are great to watch right now, really hope they can keep on winning. Massive game on Sunday - Man Utd vs Liverpool.
