The Professor said they all had to play as part of their homework.

My end of semester professor evaluation will be scorching then

 

[FoxMcChief]

better be careful, this threads for negative opinions only

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

I know the feel man, happened to me with Starfield. The good old days.

Just think games like Starfield and Redfall were full priced games and could also be played on Gamepass

 

[Badlucktroll]

concord should be a free ps plus game

 

[thief183]

Thanks I will. I’ll admit the character designs are not exactly my taste but in gameplay you’re looking down the barrel of a gun anyway and the gameplay is solid. To me COD is far less visually interesting and the gamplay hasn’t changed in 20 years so this is a breath of fresh air.

For me it is soooo slow, I mean damn, I mean I get it that fat characters can't really run fast.. or run at all... but the game is like playing immersed is slime.

 

[darth.shrimp]

Game has more people watching on Twitch than playing the game

And there were 20k people watching an hour after launch... viewers count crashed even harder than players count lol

 

[Interfectum]

Better hurry guys

If Sony were smart then they would have at least thrown this on PS+ day one, not that it would have made any difference long term though.

Fun for all lifestyles and beliefs.

The Professor and pals are sitting there, refreshing the SteamDB page, ready to pop the cork on a bottle of champagne when it crosses the 700 barrier.

Having to also pay to play online is nonsense also for these. I am not keeping an active subscription anymore and i wouldnt do it for 1 game only (and if i did, this would not be it)

My review: Concord isn't for everyone but it should be, because it's made for every one of us. It is so much more than just a game, it's a bold glimpse into our future.

9/10

 

[Warablo]

Its not like this should review bad except for horrible character designs, there just isn't a player base to play it.

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Not diverse enough imo

 

[Nydius]

It’s a legitimately fun shooter and I’m tired of pretending it’s not

So, instead, you'll pretend that it is? It's mediocre in every sense of the word and I couldn't give a shit about pronouns or the woke things others are complaining about. I can put those aside if the game is decent. There was a lot of "wokeism" in Overwatch 1 and that didn't keep me from playing it.

After playing through both beta weekends, my take-aways were: The characters and their abilities are cheap clones of other, vastly superior, games. The gunplay is decent but it's no Destiny 2 crucible like some people compared it to. TTK is horrendously slow which allows people to disengage from combat and run away far too easily. Some characters are extremely imbalanced, especially with persistent deployables in ranked/competitive modes. Giving the characters no ultimate abilities makes the game lack any real adrenaline-pumping last minute heroic moments. The gametypes are boring as hell and the maps have zero soul -- my least favorite map from vanilla Overwatch (Temple of Anubis) has more memorable design than all of the maps of Concord, combined.

As a complete package, it's a 2.5 out of 5 game.

Man, I wish Men_in_Boxes was here to see this. He would have been getting cooked.

What if he knew, and got himself banned to make sure he didn’t have to run damage control.

I appreciate this post as I think it’s the first time someone reviewed it without just saying “diversity”. I havent been able to play it but i also havent been able to see anyone give real feedback. Thank you

Makes me sad that Babylon's Fall is in a similar category. I would be curious to see it relaunched as a free to play...

Lol I had to check.
Concord still hasn't even been able to beat Babylon's Fall

It's almost like god wanted to personally shit on him with the perfect sequence of events between wukong and concord

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Most of the US is out of work/school now, so... where are those numbers?

 

[StreetsofBeige]

On the plus side, it's doubled Goodbye Volcano High which peaked at 291.

 

[DavidGzz]

Oof, the only thing that could have saved it was 9s and 10s. RIP.

 

[AJUMP23]

Bad game is mediocre on Sony.

 

[FoxMcChief]

The game seems to keep jumping back to that magical number of 660. If only 6 more idiots bought this game.

What are you waiting for?

 

[FoxMcChief]

What are you waiting for?

666

But the number is back below 650

 

[StreetsofBeige]

MC only has 5 reviews. Dont expect tons more. I think a lot of game sites wont even bother. I highly doubt this game will get 50+ reviews like bigger titles.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

666

648 now, 12 more just refunded

 

[Katatonic]

Bunch of edge lords up in here. I see y'all.

 

[winjer]

The word that best describes this game's launch is Schadenfreude.

 

[Antwix]

And there were 20k people watching an hour after launch... viewers count crashed even harder than players count lol

And the only reason that number hit 20k was due to paid #ads anyway. Quick payday for some streamers and then they obviously peaced out to no one's surprise.

Indeed.

The wheelchairs DLC should help address that.

 

[Sgt.Asher]

Ain't that a kick in the head.
Simply put, it was never a good game. Okay at best.
There are free games that offer more than Concord ever will.

[solidus12]

I’m so happy to see this game failing. The next one is Fair Game$.

 

[JerC]

GOTG for me if it causes Sony to get rid of Hermen.

 

[Punished Miku]

You know shit's dire when GHG is running to sub services for help.

 

[TintoConCasera]

The cope is in!

Hey that's some sexy avatar.

 

[ReBurn]

This is what peak game design looks like

 

[Flabagast]

I agree

 

[dottme]

Missed the opportunity to use prof pronouns.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

There cannot be a more humiliating moment than knowing that your game is a nuclear bomb nobody wants to fuckin play but still having to post emojis. The ultimate

How can you even be this delusional? Lmao.

How can you even be this much of a pathetic fanboy who does nothing but damage control for Sony?

 

[Astray]

Didn't help destruction all-stars or Foamstars.

Someone at SIE is going to take a massive internal hit for this game. It's not great but it looks and sounds expensive.
