DoucheBagMcSwag, do games w Rainbow Six Siege X update detailed, as game goes free-to-play on June 10

So this is not the PvE mode that I was waiting for huh …

Pass.

BmeBenji,

I’m curious- what PvE mode were you hoping for? Like some kind of expansion on what T-hunt used to be?

DoucheBagMcSwag,

Yeah something like that. Maybe a Co-Op story mode (extraction was shit)

I’m sure that will drastically improve the already wonderful and welcoming community.

BmeBenji,

The ranked pool is limited to paying players still, which is a good way to help keep cheaters out

He’s a CEO, ergo an idiot.

As a massive saints row fan, the ‘reboot’ made my jaw drop. Even Gat out of Hell was an enjoyable title compared to this mess. And it barely even had cutscenes!

I love SR 3 and 4. But with SR2022 costing twice as much as FF16 it makes sense why it had to be this way

‘We have American talent [at Saber.] And who could do this for, you know, a quarter of the price in Poland?’

What a shithead

Stovetop, do games w Ubisoft reportedly considering fresh business to own Assassin's Creed and other big franchises, co-owned by others like Tencent

Translation: We can’t find a buyer for our failing company, so next we’ll try to prop ourselves up by selling/leasing our IP.

I don’t think they want to sell the company. I think the family that owns the majority of it is doing everything possible to stay in control of the company called Ubisoft, regardless of how many of their IPs they still have left when the dust settles.

lath,

Tencent is supposedly low-key interested in buying something. It’s a rumour though so credibility is unknown.

13igTyme,

Really, tencent is going to buy something? Whoa!

lath,

Anal beads and rosemary scented lube.

The new game mode looks like the opposite of R6. The map is more open? Looks COD-like. R6 has always been CQB to me.

The interactive props are cool though.

simple,

Agreed, I’ll need to try it to see how it is. The idea of defending and attacking in one game sounds like it could be fun but quick respawns and an open map is closer to battlefield.

moody,

It’s more cod-like right now, but it’s still more strategic and 3-dimensional. I think once people start getting to know the maps better and strategies start to develop more, the run-and-gun style of play will slow down and people will play more carefully and more objective-oriented.

xnx,

Cqb?

hitagi,

Close Quarter Combat/Battle

I feel like something about this should be incredibly illegal, since it basically amounts to Tencent trying to sidestep every other investor in the company to gain total ownership of the valuable IPs.

I get free to play, however I am getting frustrated when I purchase a game and then it goes free to play.

Tetsuo,

I get it but I don’t really mind when it’s a very old game. It’s not like your copy of R6 siege has that much value many years after release.

Same goes for OW.

irish_link,

Absolutely true, unfortunately for me I usually purchase games later in their lifespan after most bugs are worked out. It’s not like it goes F2P a year after I purchase but I guess I am just complaining.

If more people get to play it and the game is given new life it’s a good thing.

Phineaz,

Well, can’t speak for R6S, but OW most certainly decreased in quality after it went F2P. We pretty much stopped playing a few months later.

Same goes for OW.

I paid for a 6 x 6 Hero Shooter they gave me a F2P 5 x 5 version with a lot of changes and I cannot ever play again the game that I paid for. I do mind a lot.

Tetsuo,

I bought OW at release and it’s one of the best value I ever got in gaming.

The game was around 40€ many years ago and I had all heroes since release, plenty of lootboxes and skins. And I played hundreds of hours on it. Yes they killed their game in the recent years but that doesn’t mean I didn’t get any value from it. I honestly think they were pretty generous for the first years considering it wasn’t price at 60€ like some CoD.

ZeroHora,
@ZeroHora@lemmy.ml avatar

The problem isn’t the amount of value, they’ve essentially removed OW1, there’s no way to play it again from a game preservation perspective is goddamn awful what they’ve done. Probably the only time you can play it again is when they release an Overwatch Classic for $29.99 in 10 years.

DudeDudenson,

Comically enough they put it in sale on steam

Codilingus,

Ranked will not be F2P. If you already own Seige, you won’t have to pay again for ranked.

Anyone knows what happen to operators and skins already owned?

simple,

You’ll keep everything, it’s not a new game but more of an update and moving the game to a new engine, like CS2

Contemporarium, do games w Moon Studios (Ori, No Rest for the Wicked) goes 'fully independent' in aftermath of Private Division closure

After all the negative press I’m actually pretty surprised how much I’m enjoying No Rest for the Wicked

I think Ori IP belongs to Microsoft so this means no more ori games from moon studios

Not that any were planned, pretty sure they’re done with Ori.
