You're right that this is a real deal early access game microsoft brought because they needed something for December. I'm sure the devs don't want people to play the game in its current state but it says alot that people are still loving and playing it regardless. I personally am gonna wait until it's more stable. Hell the early round rubberbanding is still an issue on PC and that's my biggest irk with the game.

Edit: on second thought this is probably very patronising, I was talking about display refresh and render frame rates and tearing but whatever, I imagine everyone knows this stuff anyway.

It's amazing that fallout 4 is still the demo in every xbox kiosk I've seen. Has Conan Exiles always been $50? Could have sworn it was 30 originally (I know it's on sale now) which is still too much for something that broken. I'd love to play it for like $15 though it's kind of fun even if it's stupid and barely a game.

So, yeah PUBG on the original Xbone really is something else. Holy poo poo it looks worse than any game I've ever seen by a mile. It's pretty fun though. I didn't have many texture loading issues once the actual game started, but it is just a comically butt ugly game. Is there really no mini map indicator for the shrinking play area?

There is a dotted line towards the white circle if you're outside of it, and there is a solid blue line that moves from left to right above the minimap, with an icon representing you and the right side of the figure representing the safe zone. Also I remember some games with EGA graphics looking kind of bad but I powered through somehow.

I was looking forward to PUBG on xbox (consoles are so much easier to win on vs. PC) until I caved and bought it on Steam. What a boring game. It's kind of sad this is what Microsoft built a console launch around. Anyone playing Vermintide still? I picked it up since it was free with Gold and I love Left 4 Dead, only to find that *no* one talks in it. It still blows my mind how many people play co-op games without thinking a mic would be helpful.

I think it's still early access on xbone. I'm on the x, but lately it's been playing super smooth for the most part. Still not the same as PC, but it's a different kind of retarded beast that's also fun to play.

Played Pubg for a few hours tonight, and I'm gonna give it the benefit of the doubt that the PC version is much less terrible than the Xbox one, even though I'm not completely sure of that from the videos I've seen. But, like even in some alternate universe where it looked and played well this game seems...bad. Like, I do get the appeal and it's sort of fun but it's already wearing thin after a few hours. Is the PC version more fleshed out or just technically better? I'm trying to figure out what garnered so much GOTY attention. It seems like almost no effort was put into it whatsoever. It seems like an exceptionally bad game in almost every regard.

I still remember one of the developers for Crackdown 2 posting on this very forum when it came out and justifying the city and most assets being recycled as "games are too expensive to develop now and people should lower their standards if they want them to remain u$60."

It's both got a lot of attention on it, and game changing enough to change the shooter genre as a whole. Yes, it's not the first game like this, but it's the first one that gained traction. Raskolnikov2089 posted:Bundling an early access beta with every Bone X sold and trumpeting it as an (timed) exclusive is a little sad. A lot of people seem to enjoy pointing out that it's a "timed" exclusive. This may be the case, but Microsoft seems to have spent good money on the port, going as far as calling it a "second party game." If Microsoft is smart (and it's a coin flip, honestly) they will pay to keep it exclusive. It's all up to Phil "Games" Spencer I guess. We'll see. CAPT.

While you've worded it in a way that makes it seem like a bad opinion, he's not wrong. Games cost way too much to develop now, but that is the fault of developers chasing stupid poo poo like accurate shadows on grains of sand and other frivolous graphical enhancements.

I'm convinced a lot of the GOTY hype comes from people watching the (admittedly very entertaining) clips on youtube, which tend to omit the hours upon hours of boring gameplay.
