Its the pinnacle of one of the biggest flaws in video games today; that you can make cheap, garbage, low-effort games and make a huge profit so long as you appeal to the lowest common denominator. (LCD being streamers / Early Access Survival / etc)

I watch my boy, AustinGreyWolf, play it all the time.

Why don't you let me find out for myself?

I don't see the appeal of last person standing, but at least it fucking killed DayZ.

It's too expensive and didn't even go on sale, and it still managed to be the top seller.

Is the game good, and what is it with all this controversy ?

>>383082425

Because it's SUPER LEET TACTICAL TACTICS which means sitting in one place for 6 minutes at a time waiting for people who didn't do that to walk by you.

>>383084083

I only have 5 hours played, but I get super anxious and whenever I hear gunfire my mouse goes everywhere. I really wanted to like that game, but I think I don't have the right mindset

>>383084530
Yeah, it's a good game. Controversy is whiners with old ass AMD CPU's complaining about the game running badly on their rigs. Game runs perfectly fine for anyone who actually matters. Also, it's going to run at 4K60 on the X1X.

I'm about 50 hours into the game and I think it's one of my favorite games, but the looting and running get really tedious after a while.

Looting can be barf inducing. You're literally just turning for 5 minutes straight.

As for the running, you could end up running for 10 minutes straight

both problems would easily be solved by making the map smaller with higher drop rates.

The walking I can barely tolerate for now, but the amount of looting you have to do is really getting to me very fast.
Also don't understand how I can head shot guys multiple times and they still won't go down, but when I die, it's usually a one shot kill.

>>383082716
Austin has become unbearable to watch. Sad to see how much this game has taken over his life

>>383084745
>Also, it's going to run at 4K60 on the X1X.
Well seeing as how you Unreal4 engine already does 4K60 pretty damn well with the new UT on a 980, that's not going to be that hard to accomplish. They're biggest problem is going to be the netcode and servers.

So whats the reward for becoming the last man standing? And what happens when you die? do you just spawn in another game with little penalty or do you have to wait for the match to end?

>>383082425
One complaint is that it has no visual style at all and is totally drab. This is a death sentence for an FPS since they're pretty shallow otherwise, yet it's among the most inert and uninspired looking games out there. Mechanically it's nothing new, either, just the same old FPS conventions that were shallow out of the gate. It's all dragged upward by your potential death being around every corner, which is what people are enjoying the most about it.

I know the games graphics matter less when you bring your spazzy nignog friends to play with you, but you can watch a bad movie with your friends and make some kind of fun out of it too.

>>383085768
>would be cool if they added a building for everyone to camp in
The 4x4km desert map will have a big urban city in the middle of it, but something REALLY urban won't happen unless you remove all the benefits of camping.
like the leaderboard fellatio people have

>>383086583
You get extra points to spend on clothing crates, I don't think anything else. When you die you can just leave and then match up again. The game's not for people who play games to collect virtual items.

>>383086850
>complaining about something that has not "visual style" when it came from an ARMA mod
>ARMA being a game about realism with no real visual style aside from realism
Nigga you are not that bright

>>383082425
RNG of finding gear and the amount of team campers is annoying.

>>383087082
thats pretty lame, just points for clothing to change how you look. I wasn't really planning on getting the game, but I guess the novelty is just knowing you were first place to show to the people who havent left the game yet. Doesnt seem like a fitting reward for it.

>>383083132
>Meier having anything to do with modern Civs

>>383087208
That doesn't dispute what I said since it obviously applies to ARMA too. An artistic game will always beat out some uninspired drab shit, you double nigger, both games are BORING looking.

>>383087696
Who knows, considering they showed 2 pictures of it its probably further along than people though. I didn't expect it before the game "releases". Maybe Sep then.

>>383087517
Well what would you expect? A win is a win. You don't get hoisted up in any other game I am aware of for just winning. A small reward, a pat on the back and you move on. Considering the game has a pretty high player base right now, people are winning constantly.

>>383082425
I do like it but would love it if there were more game modes.

Like if there was a mode with only pistols or low tier weapons I'd play it nonstop. Also in a recent thread I saw someone's idea for a game mode closer to the style of the Japanese movie, where instead of everyone dropping out of a plane, everyone starts in one area/building, and are let out all at once.

>>383084740
Jump into hot zones until you get used to combat, the adrenaline will wear off

>>383087694
And yet ARMA3 has sold over 3million while a super stylized game like Sunset Overdrive and DX:MD barely sold over half a million seperately.

That's bullshit and you know it. Sqeenix stated that DXMD sold 1.7m alone.

>>383089105
That's after constant sales, before they put the game on the backburner, it had only sold 500k

>>383088637
I don't know exactly why ARMA3 sold so well, or why many great games sell poorly. I don't write it off because it's drab looking, either. If the game gives way to something really amusing, despite no stylized graphics, it can still be amusing or downright exciting. It seems like a game that people have pushed to pretty great heights, even.

>>383090165
just play in 3rd person you stupid faggot

it's fun with a full squad but I really hope they make the game less shitty to play soon, it feels so sluggish and obviously glitchy as hell for """early access"""

also having a larger squad would be good, at least up to eight

eight of us joined SEA server last night at the same time and played as if we were an eight man squad instead using discord to voice chat with and it was fun as fuck

The game's alright, but I agree with the anons who said it's both bland to look at and barebones. I also find it's balance between 'realism' and not to be slightly awkward. You either downs omeone straight away or tag them all day with a rifle and they still don't go down.

I bought it and haven't regretted it.

The case I would make against buying though, is wait till later. Wait till it's more complete. Even if still in beta, another few update patches and it will be really good. Like maybe wait 3 months, and if it's still doing gangbusters, buy it as it will be even better than it is.

>>383084083
I've put in 96 hours and come in 1st two times. Both were duo matches.

Other than that, I consistently come in top 10. The game is really easy if you have a half decent rig and basic common sense. Close doors behind you, don't run on the crest of hills, switch your gun to auto when looting houses. You'll be fine.

>both problems would easily be solved by making the map smaller with higher drop rates.
Which would result in the rounds being over in about a 3rd the time. No thanks.
>The walking I can barely tolerate for now, but the amount of looting you have to do is really getting to me very fast.
Start landing at the military base, the bunkers, the firing range, or any of the other good loot spots, grab everything you need in one go and spend the rest of the match hunting.

They probably have a level 2 or 3 helmet.

Sounds fun! Can you get banned for teaming up like that?

am I the only one who thinks having a planetside-esque game mode where it's a large persistent world with two (or maybe even several dozen smaller) teams duke it out for map control over an extended period of time?

I feel like huge portions of the map never get appreciated or explored because of how fucking fast that stupid circle closes in on you.

>>383100691
Yep.

>>383101608
They're planning something like that. 50 v 50 team games where you have 30 minutes at the start to fight it out and find loot, if you die you respawn with a pistol. After 30 minutes the 'circles games' start and permadeath kicks in. Might be cool.

>>383084083

I've won 3 matches in the last 3 days =). Most people in the game suck at positioning and using their environment, not to mention you can also abuse the shit out of cars and get top 10 everygame if you just drive around in a car until the last couple of circles.

>>383082425

I do.

>>383101962
They aren't planning something like that. They are letting the game be open to modding so people can just do whatever with the map and tools. Its UE4 so people are familiar already.
