oh man
i'm still angry about planetside 2
What happened?
i was 2nd in command of a 3000+ member outfit that had been running from release and when the game started dying the outfit died with it
planetside 2 was a fucking mess
i loved that game but goddamn was it a circus
It was a good kind of mess
Playing as a sniper was so fun
yeah except the studio got way too much money from cosmetic purchases and stopped developing the actual game
once ppl started realizing they weren't gonna get all that cool shit smedley promised us we knew it was over
the resource system they did eventually put out is a total fucking joke
Micro Transactions is gonna kill gaming
doubt it
I heard they were gonna make a third one
If it ever gets to a point where it's _too_ much
There's gonna be less sales
Which means less money for the companies
Which means they tone it down
I mean yeah, you're still gonna have people buying games
Yeah but if it gets to a point where it is that bad
I hope so
Microtransactions will probably always be in games now
but I think it's already reached its peak
Unless they start taking something else than money lol
True, let's hope it peaks
I think the peak is or was close to the battlefront 2 fiasco
Or something similar ubisoft has done
Or is that EA?
ea
Ubisoft is just as bad however
Just checked, there's apparently just made articles about how they've stated they "learned from the mistake that was battlefront 2"
Rainbow Six Siege has this season pass bull shit my friends have spent over 200$ on that game
Jesus
tbqh both original battlefront 2 and battlefield 2 was the peak of gaming, you could host your own servers, there was pretty damn good modding
You could have the ridiculous 64v64 matches
yeah i agree there was a 5 year or so period there where it was all gold
battlefield 3 had its moments too
starting from like cs 1.6 and ending with tf2
That's pretty accurate
Lotta good games in that time frame were solid Juul
