a Japanese movie like 50 percent of the geek population knew nothing about because it never got a states release until the other 50 percent started to complain when the first hunger games came out.

The moral of the story? Don’t jump to conclusions based on hearsay and secondhand information.

That’s disappointing, I’ve read all of the other replies and while I’m going to do some more of my own homework, this really doesn’t sound like a sandbox. Used to play Star Wars Galaxies back in the day, that was the closest I ever got a true sandbox MMO.

I’m really hoping you’re right.

I have the same issue with most Highlight Reels. I think their servers just aren’t up to the task, I always just skip to the youtube link.

How can you attribute that to Denuvo?

I heard a really loud sizzling sound about 20 minutes ago, wasn’t sure what it was.

It’s funny how that works. For me, Halo’s is nearly exclusively a competitive multiplayer series, as that’s the part that draws me in. There’s definitely large segments of people who think of “Halo” as goofing around in social playlists, kicking it in custom games with friends, mastering the campaign, pushing the…

That’s exactly what I said.

In this case, the complaining seems pretty valid. CS is a pretty finely tuned game, and they just dropped in a weapon that is completely unmatched in power for cost.

I’m interested to see if the introduction of cards like Reno in the recent League of Explorers expansion will have a lasting effect on the meta. It’s certainly slowed things down and stuffed a lot of the hyper aggressive decks that were so common (and still are, though to a lesser degree).

I was so hoping this would be posted.

In case no one’s ever told you, you’re an idiot.

Because Rockstar has to justify the cost, as they’re in the business of making money. If they take people off to work on this, they need to prove that it’s more financially soluble than whatever other project that programmer would be working on.

Dayum girl.

Trying to read the comics...

I spent some time watching it on Twitch as well, but came away pretty underwhelmed... seemed pretty boring. Maybe I was watching the wrong streamers!

And yet it was the outsourced parts that worked the best - the individual game engines. They played great. The UI, netcode, and matchmaking were all on 343i.

True, a lot of the UI bugs and general matchmaking issues were embarrassing though. Way beyond the acceptable “launch bugs” that come with any game.
