Oh yeah? Well I saw a trailer where some convicts executed a man pinned to the ground while capering around him and holding a glock sideways. Whatcha gotta say about that? Checkmate, scrub. :smug:

Aaron Keener, a white man, executes people in that exact style. :smug:

I mean don't get me wrong here, if the criminal factions were comprised entirely of minorities I would support the game getting ripped to shreds...but one where the groups are pretty all-encompassing? Eh. It's like how I'm seeing complaints the game is relying on the "bury your gays" cliche because in a setting where everyone's dropping dead, a couple of gay people also bite it. I dunno man.

FTFY.

In other news, I'm seriously enjoying this game. I played the beta on xbone and PC, and was seriously questioning buying it. Ended up buying it after reading all the feedback from this thread. I'm happy I did because I've been having a blast, and I haven't even had a chance to team up with goons yet. (Steam: krunkin; uplay: kermsmeister for you PC goons that wanna shoot dudes)

If there's anything more important than my ego around, I want it caught and shot now.
Having a lot of fun in the dark zone, although there's definitely a few quality of life improvements that would be nice.

Like, if your stash is full, you can't do anything. You have to throw away all drops you have and go back to base. There needs to be a stash in the dark zone vendor area so you can choose to throw some things away or transfer them to your inventory or whatever so that you can then go extract additional loot that has dropped.

We also need a way to drop loot you've picked up for other people in your group, especially if your inventory is full.

Also there should be a clear marker to tell the difference between loot that dropped instanced for you only from an NPC and loot that dropped off a player that anybody can pick up. Its awkward when you see a drop so you go to pick it up but your group member picks it up first, and then your'e like "oh wait, that was a player drop". We've actually been cool about sharing the loot and letting different people take a piece of the pile when possible, but its easy to not notice its a shared drop.

You know, I was about to disagree with you, but then you called everyone who disagreed with your point stupid and I changed my mind. Guess it's time to stop playing, then.

Shooting at people that don't identify with you racially in a video game where those people aren't real is the same thing as inciting race riots and killing millions of people in real life; You heard it here first.

Dammit, had that bug where you can't pickup or interact with anything while I was doing the department store mission with all the cleaners. Had a random person helping out and finished it, but couldn't pick up any of the loot or interact with the collectibles. Had to quit and reload, but now the whole mission has to be redone to gain access to the space.

Oh well.
