In all of 2016 the big features added were shopping, grim hex for pirate shopping, and babbys first crysis area death match maps. Coming up on 4 months into 2017 and nothing notable has been released or been put onto the joke of a production schedule. But the game is totally going to come out as promised, we just have to wait while they poo poo out a few more broken modules then start layering on the fidelity because that's how game development works. It's basically how blizzard went from a single male orc model, the little starting cove with like 5 quests, and focused on putting in all the mounts, then boom, world of warcraft was born.

Remember when 2.6 was supposed to come out in June of last year? And 2.7 in July? Weird how now if it comes out 10 months later it's a great victory. 10 month delays for incremental patches full of well-wishings are normal. Meanwhile Blizzard dropped big patches for Overwatch and Diablo 3 today that I was actually able to play and they changed gameplay in substantial ways. And neither were 30 gigs or knocked out internet to my town when I downloaded them. Funny how that works out sometimes.

The Titanic posted:This is what I was going to say but you did just as well and better. See that's kinda the thing I've been getting at all along - you hit the nail on the head. CIG is going out of their way to get their backers to focus on the patch number only, and not any meaningful additions to the game. And oddly enough it's working. "3.0 came out, Derek was wrong" say the MOMAs of the world, missing the point that "3.0" means jack poo poo if nothing substantial is included in it. Gamers never fall for this poo poo - they figure it out in a hot second. Only Star Citizens fall for this. It's amazing.

Back again, and in the mean time poo poo happened at CIG. So explain to me how a 150 mil company just took a little over 3 months to produce 1 patch with basically nothing in it. gently caress me, gently caress you.

I think Port Olisar has the right store to suit your needs Switch or no isn't exactly an obvious choice, right now there's like only zelda to play which may or may not justify the cost by itself alone, depending on how much you like good games. But Mario kart and Splatoon are coming soon though

Do you have pre-pubescent children in your house? Do you attend lots of roof parties? Is the only reason you want one is to play Zelda? I've learned to wait on the Nintendo consoles. You can find barely used units in pawn shops for a fraction of the price in a few months. My Nintendo experience has been limited to buying for one or two games then never using the console again.

XK posted:Just think, as bad as ME:A is getting savaged right now, it's certainly leaps and bounds beyond whatever state SQ42 will be in at any point in the foreseeable future. I've sunk some time into Andromeda. It's space dragon age inquisition, which means there are side quests out the wazoo, and the average ADHD collector will be burned out on bullshit before getting to the meat. If you're about to play andromeda, just do the main missions to get to Eos and do not gently caress about. Forget the shinies, don't explore Nexus, just get on your bus and head to Eos. Animation is fine, Frostbite always looks loving wonky with light (Their SSAO blows goats around hair), and the writing is bad, but not entirely terrible. Plot holes four Lesnick's wide. Can't beat it for space opera, though. D_Smart posted:If you're talking about what I think you're talking about - FATCA - do not mess with that. Just trust me on this. Yep, and I don't. One brush with IRS was enough for me because they're really humorless.
