A depressingly large number of people. YouTube “star” is a real career now, gross as that sounds, because of the amount of viewers and attention they get.

I'm sure I'm 100 percent wrong, but based on the name alone, I'm fantasizing that this will be a Planetside 2-style MMO shooter, instead of another relatively small-scale twitchy shooter thing.

Nothing in any medium ages as badly as games. Look at that damn mug.

Those are some damn pretty photos. Well done!

The more I read about this game, the more I wonder why this is such a big deal to shooter fans, and not something like Planetside 2. Do gamers only like shiny things?

Jeez. That sounds like they completely broke the game. I mean, they aren’t going to just nullify or nerd all that 240 gear, so the well seems permanently poisoned.

I’m in the exact same boat, except that I’ve already resigned myself to watching the damn thing. I mean, who knows if GRRM will even survive to finish the series? The show might be the closest we ever get to a conclusion.

Smartphones have turned about half of the first world into college freshmen enrolled in Intro to Photography. Unless you’re Ansel Adams, skies are just skies, and always about 1 percent as striking as they are in-person.

Hopefully it’ll also have a sprawling inventory system.

I realize that the election tie-in is just a device to run an overview of space policy, or the apparent lack thereof, but this is not the time for candidates to be talking about something with such low stakes. That’s for later, after someone is elected, and presidential politics gets back to budget skirmishes and…

The bigger issue, for me, is that people would fork over $30k for...that.

That T-shirt is priceless. In that it’s the worst.

Now I’m regretting never playing Titanfall. But not enough to have bought an Xbox 1. Any idea if people are still playing it on PC?

Glad to hear it. I’m not much of an A2G guy myself, but I love the element of HOLY SHIT that kicks in during an air strike (friendly or hostile).

I love the idea of using bot kills to make players feel less chumpy. I would certainly appreciate that in just about every multiplayer game I’ve played.

Sweet Lord.

Is there any interaction between the ships and the ground troops? Guessing no, but it would be great if they’d allow for some Planetside 2-style air-to-ground (and vice versa) action.

Please note that the post is about 5 sentences long. Not exactly an in-depth report. It’s an update. Chill. Out.

Why are the English language fonts so corny in Japanese promotional material? Lots of serifs and whatnot. Is it a readability thing?

This does not make me want another just-fine Mafia game.
