Support NeoGAF

[Stumpokapow]

We can hope, at least.

Too bad that's not the game I really care about.

A GAF poster whose name eludes me claimed that Destructoid briefly put up an article about a month ago confirming that D4 was coming to PC. I don't know what Destructoid's source was, nor did I see the article, nor did I see a screencap of the article, nor can I remember the poster's name. So you can internalize this with an appropriate level of optimism.

Shady key resellers do this regularly. Sorry

Gamesrocket isn't a key reseller, but what you say is true.

Yep, the game is already living up to lofty expectations

Oh wow, I'm on a winning streak. Already won Fist of Jesus and now Wrack.

So, by looking GS, I noticed that RE REV2 comes with...two episodes bonus if you preorder? Really? I mean, 4 episodes and 2 are a bonus if you preorder? :|

Fairly certain the 2 episodes are for everyone that gets the season pass as an incentive to buy the entire thing up front rather than each episode at a time.

They asked for my ID as well, but I demanded a refund and got it promptly. Don't know why they are giving Dragon1893 such a hard time.

 

[madjoki]

Wait, is there a season pass?
I mean, I think you can buy single episodes or the whole game (four episodes). So is there a season pass upon base game?

Yeah, 4 single episodes for 5€ each or Season Pass (with all episodes) for 25€.

 

[JaseC]

Wait, is there a season pass?

He's referring to the full package. There are not four episodes and special Season Pass content.

Edit: Actually, it seems there are some bonuses for buying the full package:

Should you opt for the Complete Season, you'll be granted access to additional content including two extra spin-off episodes that tell the story of Moira Burton and the newly-announced Natalia Korda. You'll also be able to play as Hunk in RAID mode.

 

[TheAutomator]

For those not following the W10 thread, seems like Halo MCC is indeed coming to PC

I can't wait to play Halo 3. Already have Halo and Halo 2 on PC. :3

 

[Corpekata]

Season pass = whole game when it comes to episodic stuff like this. It's generally not called a season pass on PC because usually the option to buy separate episodes is on consoles only.

 

[MMBosstones86]

yup. It's pretty fantastic

I'll stay cautious, but still optimistic.

More people need to experience the soundtrack, the general weirdness, and the Jojo-esque poses of D4.

[YianGaruga]

Yes, but on the link I posted six episodes are listed, plus some other packs (I think multiplayer stuff).

As far as pricing goes, each episode will cost £4.99/€5.99/$5.99 a pop or, alternatively, you can pick up the Compete Season option for £19.99/€24.99/$24.99 which will net you the lot. Should you opt for the Complete Season, you'll be granted access to additional content including two extra spin-off episodes that tell the story of Moira Burton and the newly-announced Natalia Korda.

I can't play Halo on PC because of FOV and mouse issues. I can't wait for them to still think it's 2002 and release a crappy PC version of MCC without PC options.

Although maybe that's too positive, I still don't think they are bringing MCC to PC and even if they do, it's a Windows 10 exclusive with release 9-10 months away.

Ok, thanks. But throwback pack etc are exclusives for preorder?

Judging from the PS Blog post regarding the pre-order, only the Throwback Pack is a pre-order incentive.

 

[Abomination]

MS will migrate, enforce GFWL 2.0 and will then shut down GFWL 2.0 after a year

 

[BinaryPork2737]

After watching a few scenes I think the game is not for me.

It's definitely not a game for everyone. It's pretty bizarre and out there at times, and most of the gameplay revolves around QTEs, which a lot of people hate for different reasons.

That said, everything is over the top, even the action scenes, which I won't link because of spoilers.

 

[ashecitism]

Sometimes I wonder if the people who dislike Steam so much just simply don't like the service, or are bitter because "they don't make games anymore!" or are jealous of their success ("They got lucky back then! Been at the right place and right time!").

probably because they haven't developed Stockholm Syndrome yet

 

[rtcn63]

I owned a Zune HD, which was basically left to die from the outset. I'll always use Windows and have an Xbox, but anything else- particularly promised on the software side- I'll remain pessimistic.

 

[Dr Dogg]

Considering Microsoft probably fucked off a lot of pubs by how they kind of dumped GFWL support, closed the Marketplace thus cutting off publishers chance to sell DLC for GFWL titles, then what I can assume is a lack of communication as to what was happening moving forward prompted a lot of pubs to strip GFWL out of their games and integrate Steamworks so they could sell their game and DLC again I really, really doubt that a GFWL 2.0 is ever going to happen outside of Microsoft titles let alone get pubs back on side again after their antics. Of course Capcom have been known to do crazy things.

I came here to post this, I am very tempted to cave in and I gather they're going to launch other nice bundles in the near future; they are just doing a survey asking what customers would want from them so I guess they're taking note of all the feedback.

can someone explain to me why people are in such a tizzy over H1Z1? I don't understand.. here's why:

1. it's a f2p game but the beta costs $20... what?
2. it's another online survival zambie game of which there are several, each being a flavor of the month at some point, how is hizzy any different?

From what I have been able to gather, SOE has been saying for the better part of a year that the game will not be P2W. The bussiness model for H1Z1 would involve selling skins and cosmetics.

When the game released, people were buying air drops that would land right at your location with rare weapons, ammo, and other items key to survival.
