AllNewJonasSalk posted:Bought rear end Creed Odyssey because that bitch was cheap as gently caress and wow. Between this game and Red Dead 2: The Reddining, I'm really happy with these awesome period oriented open world games. I need every game, from this point forward, to pay an insane amount of attention to detail. It's amazing climbing temples and seeing all the little artworks they placed on the latticework. Agreed. I finished Red Dead 2(and loved it) and jumped into AC: Odyssey. I liked the contrast coming off Red Dead in that you are basically a super hero in AC. Ancient Greece looks amazing (even on an Xbox One S). While I loved the "realism" of Red Dead 2, I am equally enjoying running with my tamed Lion and lighting my sword on fire to murder some Greeks.

Currently very upset with Gamepass as due to it I am now firmly enroute to 1000/1000 Agents of Mayhem which is a very poorly designed game.

I really don't see m/kb being added to any competitive fps. Sure you'll see it get added in for stuff like Halo Wars, Kerbel, City Skylines, and free to play 3rd person shooters. But I would not hold my breath for BFV with mouse and keyboard.

Widespread adoption of m/kb for console shooters would own because you could start clowning on people who paid like 100 bucks for a xim with some old usb keyboard lying around in your house.

SUNKOS posted:Does anyone here own the Master Chief Collection? If so, does it show playercounts for the multiplayer of each game now that they added the option to install specific games? I'm curious roughly how many people are playing each of the four games online since I've been going back and forth between picking up MCC or the specific games I like via BC. I like that you can just install multiplayer and ignore singleplayer completely but I saw the multiplayer mashed all four games into each mode and I'd rather just install the specific games I want to play and stick to them but I don't know if they're dead or not? Everyone hates Halo 4 for example, what's the playerbase like for that in MCC if the only part of the collection installed is the multiplayer component of that game? I have no idea about player base number counts but I remember that when ever I played MCC, I couldn't really find many people playing 4 online. Most people seemed to have been content with playing Halo 2. That's my experience though.

That's my experience though. to answer the original question i dont believe it gives you population counts of individual games, or even pop count of the hopper you're queuing in. the MP hoppers all contain some amount of H4 unless they specifically say they dont, but usually most people will vote for the alternative options. the very few times I have managed to get a game going in MCC, everyone avoids H4 matches when they show up to vote on.

Man I don't know if it's my new weed habit or rising levels of lead in my water supply but I am playing FF13 since it's Xbonx enhanced and uh, I'm finding it a lot easier to follow and not as bad as the many times I've bounced off of it? I mean I know the first ten hours are tutorial but it looks nice and the music is some of the series' best.

I think getting rid of player count was one of 343’s first acts with the reach to halo 4 transition after bungie peaced out For those with short memories, 343’s first reach patch was not well received...

ethanol posted:I think getting rid of player count was one of 343’s first acts with the reach to halo 4 transition after bungie peaced out Player counts were still on the website for 4, the reason I remember this is because of that graph with playercount being almost nonexistent less than a year after launch. Then there were all the shenanigans to hide what 5 actually sold, by counting basically everything it could to beef numbers (all I know now is that Halo 5 is ranked in the 30's for most played games next Gears5, a game where it's almost impossible to find a good match).

Its a really good game; it just doesn't play like previous final fantasy games, people thought they understood the tutorials when they absolutely didn't, and the story is the hottest of garbage. If you know that you get free ATB refreshes every two turns, saboteur maintains the stagger gauge just as well as commando, and each job provides different passive bonuses to your squad you've got all you need to enjoy the hell out of the game.

The PC ports kinda pissed me off with their laziness ("Don't turn off your PLAYSTATION®3" messages are left in and you need external tools to make pads work) but I did not have a bad time with the games themselves

Ashen is really good and if you have Game Pass and like Dark Souls you should give it a whirl. It's not entirely derivative and a lot less lonely than Dark Souls.

COD WW2 got off to a really lovely launch, but they improved the game immensely since then. Still, Blops4 is really really good. BFV is also very good. If you're hard up for WW2 go with BFV.

Xboxonex had a hard time updating, first time gave me an error that wasn't even in the error code database. After a 2nd attempt it updated without error, but upon reaching the dashboard it shutdown without any warning or errors. Did that several times but then was 100% operational for installation and a few hours of play of Rdr2. Then this morning trying to install Forza horizon 4 from game pass the install kept failing with an error code that had the directions of "try again later". I rearranged the install/download queue so Forza was last after seeing other things seemed to install fine, and I'll see things went after being gone for the day. But now I'm worried i have a bum unit or something? Sextro fucked around with this message at 00:26 on Dec 16, 2018 |

I ran an Ethernet cable because the bone gets a whopping 6 Mbps down over WiFi even though it's about 10 feet away from an AC1900 router but the 5400 RPM HDD write speed is the limiting factor when hard wired.

The xbone just plain sucks at networking period. I had to turn whatever setting leaves the xbone in sleep mode off because it would come back and refuse to connect to any network. Also, the fact that you have the unplug the ethernet cable in order to use wifi is dumb as hell.
