Another person who doesn't understand time zones.

5pm Pacific / 6pm Mountain / 7pm Central / 8pm Eastern / 9pm Atlantic / Midnight GMT

Two hours.
The exact same time as global release.

To be fair, Calverz was going by the release time

Another person who doesn't understand time zones.

5pm Pacific / 6pm Mountain / 7pm Central / 8pm Eastern / 9pm Atlantic / Midnight GMT

Two hours.
Embargo drops the exact same time as global release.

 

[FearlessBelgian]

But it's already out in 2 hours that makes no sense.

How can the embargo be after it's out?

So embargo end in 48 mins, no ? (1 hour before release)

 

[digoutyoursoul]

You get to see Xbox fans suffering live.

Leave us alone you bastards :-(

 

[Salz01]

Isn’t this also the first Unreal Engine 5 game, outside of Fortnite? They should have this thing looking polished and playing in pristine condition.

This thread is about to be a big firework and it's all thanks to you lovely people

 

[Hestar69]

no they don't, it's not very good. The open world is well-done yea, but the story is usual 343 nonsense and the missions are super boring. There is probably a great game there but it was completely incompetently made and then they had to throw it together just to get something out the door after a year delay. Maybe not too different from this game.

really? I enjoyed it it was ALOT better than the putrid crap they put out called halo 5 (4 was alright IMO)..But yeah.. They should've delayed it a year or so and fleshed everything out (even mp)

 

[DenchDeckard]

[Dusktildawn48]

I really think this is the game that gamers need to band together (no matter what plastic box you worship) and tell developers this shit isn't good enough.

 

[Salz01]

UE4

okay, just saw where they confirmed ue4

 

[solidus12]

Twitter influencers should be held accountable for this shitshow as well.

For years they have been hyping up Redfall and Starfield as the second coming of Christ even though they didn’t look all that impressive to begin with.

Truth is, they’re desperate for a W against PlayStation that they’re willing to hype up whatever game is coming.

Im talking about the Colts, Tom Warrens, Jez Cordens, Destin Legaries

 

[Mr Reasonable]

Well, it just got a patch. Perhaps the first of many.

 

[Hestar69]

I didn't care much for Halo's SP campaign but I really think the downfall started with the introduction of Brutes in Halo 2.

I don't mind the brutes I think the downfall started with bungie leaving obviously. halo 4 was ok imo,but 5 was so terrible I had to force myself to finish it even though I hated it.

 

[Yoboman]

I don't blame Arkane. This is definitely an Xbox management issue

I'll do the "immersive sims to play" thread.

This is a fucking abomination.

I haven't made it through any of the non-Bungie games and even some of those were painful (2, ODST). Halo > Reach > 3 >>>>> everything else.

Wait, this was supposed to be an immersive sim?

 

[feynoob]

This is not Xbox problem.

Arkane had too many years, plus 1 year delay.
Xbox did all they can, and arkane fucked up badly.

When your own company is giving you 1 year to fix your shit and you don't, you have a serious problem.

One where the embargo hasn't even lifted.

That went south, quick.

This is a fucking abomination.

Abomination at least has some dignity. This one doesn't.

This one treats it's players like babies.

 

[IFireflyl]

If this ends up getting above a 70 when it's missing 60fps and has so many issues, then reviews are meaningless.

 

[feynoob]

One where the embargo hasn't even lifted.

It's all due to 1 review doing 4/10.

 

[bender]

Phil should have delayed it another year...and bought me a pony.

Starfield will be a good game.

It’s flagship Bethesda. It will be a huge buggy mess, but also an enormous role playing game that you can get lost in.

I’m not worried about it.

Just ignore Twitter dorks.

 

[Gambit2483]

[feynoob]

That is Mark I can see it hitting.

People have nostalgia for arkane. That can effect some reviewers.

 

[Guilty_AI]

It's all due to 1 review doing 4/10.

Honestly this game has been looking bad for quite some time already. This review feels like the first nail to the coffin.

 

[Dick Jones]

It's all due to 1 review doing 4/10.

More than that. The game box was call a fucking doorstop by one and we have the worst game of 2023 in another.

 

[GHG]

Wait, this was supposed to be an immersive sim?

https://www.pcgamer.com/with-redfal...radical-new-approach-to-immersive-sim-design/

And on the games website... :

Redfall is an open-world, co-op FPS from Arkane Austin, the award-winning team behind Prey and Dishonored. Continuing Arkane’s legacy of carefully crafted worlds and immersive sims, Redfall brings the studio’s signature gameplay to this story-driven action shooter.

https://bethesda.net/en/game/redfall

Not seeing much of that "signature" gameplay to be honest.

 

[BoxFresh123]

Admittedly very unlikely but imagine this drops a 90+ Meta now

 

[Krathoon]

Seriously, the game is coming out at 7pm Central? WTF? Most latest release ever.

It's Bethesda and it isn't co-op.

Redfall main issue is co-op. Co-op games aren't like the past. All current ones have been failure.

 

[Dick Jones]

Put those fuckers back on that ship.

 

[AmuroChan]

welcome to 'make my skin crawl!' starring your host, mitch dyer!...

i'd watch...

Would you expect anything less from a guy who tried to rationalize that the human eye cannot tell the difference between 720p and 1080p? Also, same guy went on to write the terrible campaigns of Battlefront II and Gotham Knights.

[LordCBH]

I’m morbidly curious to experience this impending train wreck. Think I’ll open the Gamepass app on my pc and download it to see how awful it is for myself. The Xbox low bar for me is Crackdown 3. Can they manage to go lower?

 

[feynoob]

Where is SenjutsuSage ?

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Admittedly very unlikely but imagine this drops a 90+ Meta now

As much as I don’t like their games, they have been critical darlings with recent releases. I’d be surprised if this scored low, particularly from certain Xbox reviewers.

 

[Captain Toad]

Xbox fans hate ponies.
