Support NeoGAF

[cireza]

This is the one that will succeed, go for it Sony.

 

[Ozriel]

MAG was awesome.

Socom 4 was a scam.

A game you paid $60 for was turned into a coaster after they killed the servers. No refunds.

 

[Msamy]

Hope this one ends like concord to make sony leave this shit gaas plans

 

[Physiognomonics]

MMMMMMM JADE, I would eat her bum with a spoon!

She is prettier than any character Playstation has produced those last years. Why don't they use her model in their own games? I mean, she is even a real woman! And BTW I see those kind of pretty women all the time in the real world.

MMMMMMM JADE, I would eat her bum with a spoon!

bro, she is granny now, 49yo ;D
for comparision thats her at e3 2007

[Tsaki]

Damn dude! The people that work on the game think it's the best shit ever?! I'M CONVINCED NOW!
But seriously unless they change the whole neo-commie "eat the rich" writing this game has, it will be another Concord. Listen to this crap:

 

[jonnyp]

It'll suck and be a massive failure. Sony needs to stop wasting money on these abortions and invest in what they do best, i.e story-driven single player games without wokeness.

 

[HogIsland]

There's a reason why my friends called it discount Battlefield.

your friends are probably Raven scum and traitors.

 

[TrebleShot]

lol no you are not and we've seen that with Xbox. They literally released their next gen console with no exclusive and were still selling well at first. Even after like 8+ years of saying we need more games and promising next year.

Plus what are these people going to do go buy an Xbox? lol.

Well no maybe my statement was a bit extreme but if this is what sony are investing in and people aren't buying it the threat isn't that they buy something else. It's that they don't buy what they have invested in.

We're not talking about some suddenly shuttering but they expect growth if they do t get it they pivot. That means pivoting their business focus to where they can see growth. God knows where that is...maybe they revive Vaio and have a gaming PC division.

 

[Killjoy-NL]

Wut

The conversation is about pre-release confidence. Not response to market reception.

Gotcha.

If they weren’t confident about Concord, they’d have launched it as F2P, similar to Deatruction All Stars

I took the €40 pricetag as them not expecting too much from the game so charging money to at least generate some guaranteed revenue.
Just like Helldivers 2.

A game you paid $60 for was turned into a coaster after they killed the servers. No refunds.

So?

 

[Fabieter]

Would be nice for her to finally have a smash hit after all the unlucky projects she had.

 

[PeteBull]

when its so many flops/failures in a row, u have to admit luck has nothing to do with it, she was simply sexy af so great for pr/conferences xD

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

It looks like GAAS is back on the menu boys!!

 

[VeganElduderino]

bro, she is granny now, 49yo ;D

still fucking hot

 

[Holammer]

The game can be saved, but in the state it is now it's a concord level failure waiting to happen.
Unless they are ready take an axe to it, it's better to make it a tax write-off now.

Start by rename it, remove the eat the rich narrative and the edgy zoomer chara design.

 

[Killer8]

The reveal trailer was terrible and people's reaction to it was overwhelmingly negative. Internal polling doesn't mean shit, it's going to die.

 

[SlimySnake]

Definition of insanity. Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting things to change.

All they had to do was chase CoD. Thats it. Go back and make military shooters with like KZ, Resistance, MAG, Warhawk, Socom. But nope. Lets chase hero shooters and extraction shit and fortnite clones and destiny trash.

 

[PeteBull]

still fucking hot

at least u could hit it raw with her age ;P

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Maybe Sony will learn a lesson this time and not make it completely DEI pronouns woke trash with ugly characters no one wants to play as

They should also give it something unique and fun in terms of gameplay to make it stand out from the many competing established games

They should also launch it F2P

Let's see what they do!

 

[Flabagast]

yeeeah sure

 

[Revolutionary]

11 days after the release of F41RG4M3$:

We've come to the difficult decision to shut down

 

[KyoZz]

They can be as confident as they want, the final judges are the players. And in that case... welp, Sony better buckle up

 

[LordOfChaos]

Pls not another generic hero shooter for the pile

Sony's core is great SP experiences.

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

 

[Ronin_7]

Cancel this and Marathon. Work on SP games with or without traditional MP. That’s your audience.

They won’t cancel two games that have the potential to be successful. If they fail, they'll move on, but in my opinion, you just don’t cancel projects that are this far along. Factions was an exception because Naughty Dog realized they couldn't support it due to their focus on single-player games. However, those two studios are primarily focused on online games, so there’s nothing to lose.

 

[DeadOblivion78]

your friends are probably Raven scum and traitors.

Ok boomer.

 

[VeganElduderino]

at least u could hit it raw with her age ;P

I'm 43 I'm not that far off ! I would still destroy that old Pu

 

[Generic]

The most played titles on PS5 are multiplayer games.

 

[cormack12]

Pvp
Extraction

Can already say this will not succeed.

 

[Barakov]

MMMMMMM JADE, I would eat her bum with a spoon!

Hope you like vegan farts.

 

[solidus12]

This game si so dead lmao.

 

[xanaum]

Well, so it means Fairgame will rely on event testing to figure out how it’s gonna perform.

I’m not really sure, maybe there's some hope if it’s free to play, but honestly, I don’t know a single person who has high expectations for it

 

[SHA]

Damn, the only card left for Sony to play before Ps6 is pro marketing deals, I hope it pays off later on, this gen for Sony is pure graphics.

 

[diffusionx]

I know nothing about Fairgame% outside of the very lame trailer, but I guarantee that people within Sony are taking another look at it right now.

I wonder if the leaders of the company have any regrets about promoting Hulst, too. I know people shit on Jim Ryan but Hulst was also his guy. He spearheaded this gaashit.

 

[Herbspiceguy]

MMMMMMM JADE, I would eat her bum with a spoon!

She ain't freaky. She'll pull her ass away the moment you're closing in on it.

I would have kept Factions and Twisted Metal. They offer something unique and different to stand out.
I'd move Factions to another studio and/or team though.

 

[Not_A-Cop_Maybe]

wait till "gamers" find out that you can have characters of colour and even put facepaint on them!

This is really gonna sell like bonkers! /s

 

[Radical Dreamer]

I didn't know i'd say that but... Fuck Sony and fuck hermen lmao, another bomba incoming

 

[simpatico]

Looking forward to the MEGA thread. Popcorn budget is insane this gen. I can hardly keep up. We've got Shadows coming right around the corner too! It's a veritable smorgasbord for popcorn enthusiasts.

 

[diffusionx]

We don't know anything about what those games looked like when they were cancelled though.

 

[CLW]

Was it the same dude that was confident on Concord though?

They/them bigot you are CLEARLY not part of the target modern audience

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

The most played titles on PS5 are multiplayer games.

"most played" doesn't mean most liked. They're just the never ending hamster wheels.
Why would you have hundreds of hours in a 30ish hour SP game?

 

[fart town usa]

It's gonna bomb, hopefully. People are fed up and the market is flooded. The trailer was cringe Marxist nonsense while also being a GAAS title. The irony was not lost on me.

Sony needs to be humbled for as long as it takes. They must feel the pain.

 

[VeganElduderino]

She ain't freaky. She'll pull her ass away the moment you're closing in on it.

have you tried ?

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

We don't know anything about what those games looked like when they were cancelled though.

Well we know what the gameplay is like in Factions and Twisted Metal.
Can't think of any other MP game offering the same thing.

 

[Killjoy-NL]

The reveal trailer was terrible and people's reaction to it was overwhelmingly negative. Internal polling doesn't mean shit, it's going to die.

Fairgame$ looks like The Finals to me, which I think sucked.

 

[diffusionx]

Well we know what the gameplay is like in Factions and Twisted Metal.
Can't think of any other MP game offering the same thing.

Sure, what I am saying is that for all we know those games were in bad shape, or very far behind in schedule (seems to be the case for Factions).

 

[Herbspiceguy]

have you tried ?

Just the vibe I get from her. In a way, she reminds me of UbiDead games, decent looking, but actually boring content.
