>contains in-app purchases

nah

>>377203828
Because a board predominantly made up of 15-17 year olds aren't going to remember an OG Xbox game that was relatively obscure even back then.

Was the protag name's always been Alpha?
That's kinda rad.

>>377203828
When you say there are torrents, do you mean that the game has been hacked-up to work with non-cancer OSs? Or that you can just get it without going thru windblows store?

i fuckin hate you 4chimp faggots, i swear. you love being contrarian just for the sake of it.

no matter what the subject is, you will find a way to shit on it. are you really that miserable? kys

Locked at 30 fps unfortunately.

I'll probably play through it for nostalgia's sake but I can only play in quick 30 minute bursts before it starts hurting my eyes.

How long is the story mode?

>>377203828
Too busy playing it mate :)

I remember hearing about this when it first came out. A friend told me it had hard and unrewarding gameplay, but an awesome story.

>>377205120
I was under the impression is was a single $5 purchase to skip the campaign (which iirc is really fucking good) to get all the skills and go right to multiplayer.

I don't suppose theres any way around the Windows 10 requirement, or a likelihood it will eventually come to windows 8? I hate that they keep pushing this shit, no way am I upgrading my entire OS just to play a few video games.

I've spent about 8 hours trying to fix this stupid shit, and I guess it's just not happening. I can still play PC-to-PC fine, but crossplay doesn't work at all, which is a big issue since most players are on console.

No thread about this game never actually talk about why this game or what the gameplay is like. Thus I officially announce this game shit which deserved to fail and to be forgotten and all that hype is coming from oldfag billyboys who were too poor at that time to buy an actual console - PS2.

>>377208464
i don't think which operating system you use matters. i'm pretty sure EVERYTHING is being monitored and logged, just so they can black mail you into doing what they want or they will fuck your shit up so bad, you'd have to start a new life

>>377208776
Exactly.

>>377205679
It's exactly that. But you know what, people would rather complain rather than make valid points.

Who even gives a shit about this game anyway? Microsoft are just trying to pull the nice guy card by giving a "literally who" game for free when in truth it's probably some freemium bullshit

>>377208109
Yes, the quality on that webm is horrendous.

>>377204045
I think you can unlock everything by just playing the single player

>cute pink haired girl is you
this is bad?

Honestly, /v/, I was way too busy playing the single player so that I can unlock all the skills.

Shit's just as good as I remember it being, and I'm glad it's back.

To those having issues running the game: Fix your rig, don't have so many services running in the background and make sure the proper services are running.

I really want to play this game but the fucking windows store has never worked for me.
In the past I've tried downloading Halo forge and Gigantic and all it does is spend like 10 minutes "starting download" only to get random errors every time.

That Quantum Break game eventually went to Steam right? Can we hope for this game too?

>>377209440
I find it unlikely given that this game is free and was made so for the only purpose of promoting of windows store.

>>377209724

4 player free-for-all, 2 on 2, 3 on 1 if you want to.

Played it for 10 minutes. Opening cutscene was retarded, game looks like shit, I quit in the first room. I know it's an upscaled remaster or whatever but fuck is it painful to look at.

>>377203828
>Why the fuck is there no threads about this?
The game just released anon. It's been nothing even a whole day yet. People are playing it, give them some time and threads will sure start to appear.

I'm beginning chapter 2. So far, i quite impressed by how unique the gameplay is and i thought that it would be a game focused on gameplay but the story is really interesting too.


How is the multiplayer?
I don't pretend to try it before finishing the story mode.

>>377208334
Sauce? Please?

>>377212947
>How is the multiplayer?
Fun. Challenging. Deep. Deck-building is half the fun. Figuring out good combinations of skills to counter opponents.

Just wish I had more than one copy of each skill. I might play through the single player so I can start making more arsenals. That's not a bad thing since the campaign is really good, too.

>>377212947
Multiplayer is just like single player but you're fighting a person instad of AI.

>>377213646
Literally, the only bad thing about the campaign is if you've already played the game but have to go through the tutorial missions again.

Jesus christ. So many people sperging because the game is not on their platform of choice. Just dual boot windows 10 and your precious 7, and only use 10 for games. Or just get an xbone. Also, sony shills like >>377209076 need to fuck off. Why are you getting so defensive when you just got like 4 months of solid games?

Also get with the times, there's no CoD, but plenty of Overwatch, PU: Battlegrounds and Counter Strike threads all the time.

>>377208502
I hope that's sarcasm boyo.

I'm on second chapter.
wtf is this shit. Don't tell me that entire game will be about ruing around same battle arena collecting orbs.
The combat itself is fun but I wont last with game mechanics like this for long.
Where are all these super duper complex skill combinations I kept hearing about?

Anybody have some good tips on deckbuilding?

>>377214940
Have mostly aura particles and a few low cost skills. So you make sure you have option un case you get a bad roll

>>377214934
I hear shit kicks in around the 3rd chapter. The story I've seen is pretty good though, so hang in there.

>>377208334
Who fucking cares? Its faster than Windows 7/8 and it works.

Like people that are so opposed against certain operating systems, only to be using the previous version is literally the height of autism. Who fucking cares?

Really slow beginning and navigating around the hub map is so slow but this game is fun so far. Multiplayer has a shit ton of potential.

>>377215195
W10 can display gifs in the built in photo viewer, unlike 7 where you have to use s browser. Thats pretty handy

i wanted a remake
not a port

sony is doing a crash remake, a ff7 remake
what the fuck is this cancerous xbox bullshit? im not signing up for windows 10 to play some bullshit port

>>377215697
Mate, at least they had the decency to release it for free (the microtransactions are totally optional, it just gives you the skills for MP without playing the campaign). Why would they remake a game that was obscure even for the time it came out?

>>377215697
Wow. What a picky fucking person.

TIP: during the initial countdown of a match, if you don't like your hand, you can press the left start button (the old back button) to "redraw" for a new set of 4 skills. If I have a hand with no/few aura I always redraw so I can start with some.

>>377214940
Don't build a deck around one specific combo. I did that and would just be waiting all match for that perfect hand I needed. Have a few options for solid hands. Like, a couple reliable infinite use skills. Whenever I lose really badly I find myself refining my aresenals, using what I learned from the last matches.

>Windows is shit

Thats retarded.

Windows has always been a terrible operating system but it seems like normies are only upset about 10 for some reason.

Its a necessary evil for PC gaming. You have your work PC/Mac with something respectable running on it, and your gaming PC for games.

BUT NOT WINDOWS 10 IT HAS DIRECTX12 AND BETTER CONTROLLER SUPPORT DONT USE THAT ONE FOR GAMES!!

>>377217437
How is Crash not a remake? It's the first three games, remade on PS4.

First impressions of the game is
a bunch of avatars that run around like lemmings that can only move and jump unless they pick up floating orbs in order to function.
There's no basic attacks and everything is just a waiting game for things to recharge.

Why did people like this game again?

>>377220413
You get a free pack through the store and I am pretty sure that you can unlock more through single player.
It's one of those things that let retards pay for fast tracks.

>>377220413
THIS JUST IN: GAME COMPANIES LIKE MONEY.

>>377203828
Because it's on two platforms hardly anyone here supports.

still playing Singleplayer

I'll be up for multiplayer in a few days

Your first few matches with a shit arsenal are going to feel clunky, shallow and dull. But the more time you put into refining your arsenal and figuring out what skills work well together, the more rewarding it all is. Half the fun is building my arsenal and seeing the payoff and the drastic difference in gameplay.

Its on xbone too retard.

the game could have run all the way back to Windows 95 if they didn't replace the DX8 calls with DX11. You can call them on that if you want, but is still irrelevant that many people here have suggested the Xbone version or dual booting your system just for newer games. Posts like yours aim to do nothing but pointlessly detract. Windows 10 is shit but phantom dust isn't and I'm at least 99% certain this is a phantom dust thread and not a windows 10 thread.

>Complaining about microtransactions
Both SP and MP credits are stored locally, so you can just edit that with CE and buy whatever the fuck skills you want from the MP store. If you're a new player, I'd recommend playing through SP first, but it's a nice shortcut for returning players. Save data is stored on the server/cloud/whatever, so if you're on Xbox just download it on W10, do the edits, then go back.

There's also a severe lack of people adding each other to play in this thread, so add me. XBL name is in the picture.

>>377225104
Why are windows store apps/games so needlessly protected? I ended up having to reinstall W10 earlier because I was trying to get the BGM folder out of its normal directory and everything somehow got super messed up.

Hopefully someone who knows how to get those files out is able to rip it, because they're probably using higher quality audio than the original version.

>>377203828

any other shit you can edit to fuck up the game in multiplayer, like damage values or aura cost?

>>377211141
Works fine for normal work and play stuff. People who are nuts about MUH PRIVACY sperg out about it, but if that's the case they can dual boot Linux and only use win10 for games.

I'm sure you easily can, but I don't care to try since I don't really care about cheating in MP. I doubt you'll really see many people doing it because the game is niche enough as it is. Even in fighting games on PC, you very rarely -- if ever -- run into a cheater because people just wanna play the game.

You'll probably see a few people doing it early on, but once the game settles you probably won't see another cheater for a long time. I remember running into a few people using modded xboxes, anyway.

I might try some stuff in SP later for fun, like giving the AI partner infinite HP to see if they can even finish a mid-game mission on time.

>>377226875
I kinda messed that up. It's stored locally but uploads to a cloud server, like Steam does, which makes sense because the "Xbox play anywhere" stuff.

You don't have to do anything with the Microtransactions, did you not read the thread?

& they only said it was a re-release, just adding in 1080p. The only reason it's free is because the studio behind the remake was put under, this was an apology, adding in microtransactions to at least make a little money. Though I don't condone these actions.
