That's insane. Sony should be throwing money at the devs with network infrastructure to support the game.Massive player base on PC.....7th most played game on steam with 409,367 concurrent players at one stage today. Any dev going console exclusive these days clearly does not like money.
I don't like it when I can't see through the back of my own head to line up a shot.Why's that?
It's over the shoulder, so you don't have that issue.I don't like it when I can't see through the back of my own head to line up a shot.
Am I the player character or an ethereal puppet master pulling the strings?
Regardless, my own head is blocking my line of sight. It's a bad aesthetic, it turns me off and I won't support games that only run in 3rd person.It's over the shoulder, so you don't have that issue.
You know you can aim and shoot in first person too, right?Regardless, my own head is blocking my line of sight. It's a bad aesthetic, it turns me off and I won't support games that only run in 3rd person.
This also applies to platform games and most console games. I don't feel connected to my character when I'm observing them from the outside.
I admit I do not feel as strongly about this as I do about the fact that cheating in multiplayer games should be a capital crime.
It's close though.
Lol, reminds me of mmo games where every news bit is on Twitter, but not their own site or forums.Steam score is starting to drop, people are copy pasting the devs comments from discord because posting them to steam seems to be too much work for the devs.

If that's true, it's a massive marketing failure.You know you can aim and shoot in first person too, right?

A pox on Discord.Steam score is starting to drop, people are copy pasting the devs comments from discord because posting them to steam seems to be too much work for the devs.
On PC its bound to your scroll wheel button, and you have settings to remember it per-weapon or globally. You also have a setting to have a tap of the aim button to 1st person and a hold of the aim button to stay 3rd person.
In other news, I tried to load into a match this morning and it hung my computer on the drop pod screen, then my 990 Pro 2TB died. Can't detect it in BIOS any more.
Ouch, is that one of the models with problems? I can't remember which ones had issues from a year or two ago. I know it was the 970 for production up to a certain date. That or is it some issue with the anti-cheat software perhaps.
lol. I think not.If that's true, it's a massive marketing failure.
Say you play this as a team with your friends, how many hours till you beat the full game?
But is there any ending? Or it just keep looping against the CPU AI bots? You never play against actual real players online right?My three buddies and I probably put 30-35 hours in to work our way up to the hardest difficulty.
YMMV.
I don't believe there's an actual ending. Just that you continuously take on new missions and unlock the remaining perks(ship modules). Which will take a lot more time.But is there any ending? Or it just keep looping against the CPU AI bots? You never play against actual real players online right?
Most definitely. They also have mechs coming "soon".I will say - they're most likely going to add another faction or two to the game. As on the map, there's room for at least one more, possibly two in the blank areas.
I'm not the only one who is instantly turned off by 3rd person so however successful they are, they could have been successfuller.lol. I think not.
That is your prerogative as a consumer, but your argument for not liking the perspective is specious.I'm not the only one who is instantly turned off by 3rd person so however successful they are, they could have been successfuller.
I'm not here to support my aesthetic preferences with reasons that satisfy you.That is your prerogative as a consumer, but your argument for not liking the perspective is specious.
Supposedly there is no queue, it's random who gets into the game.
You're not wrong about the lack of an actual queue.I really want to play the game, haven't been able to for 3 days now, and the developers attitude is not giving much hope that's going to change.
Glad to see this. A buddy of mine was doing this too. Frustrating to see they've allowed it.People are leaving the game running overnight to get around queue times, apparently. An update should be coming soon that adds an AFK timer to prevent those people from clogging up the servers. For the CEO's part, he says it's worth waiting for the server issues to be resolved before buying the game.

Thoughts on adding a mode where bugs and bots are duking it out while you deploy? 1v1v1 would be epic.Servers are still absolute shit, which isn't shocking.

Damn that would be *epic*Thoughts on adding a mode where bugs and bots are duking it out while you deploy? 1v1v1 would be epic.
When you say new missions, how many missions are there in total? And how are they always new?I don't believe there's an actual ending. Just that you continuously take on new missions and unlock the remaining perks(ship modules). Which will take a lot more time.
The journey of getting to the highest level and beating whatever mission comes your way is where the meat and potatoes are in this game. The game is pretty challenging overall. Especially when you and friends are trying to figure each enemies weakness while trying to collaborate on how to overcome the absolute chaos that comes your way. It's a lot of fun.
No pvp.

How long till the fun runs out though? I mean you're playing against bots? I'm trying under the longevity of this game playing against AI?Best + most fun co-op game I've played in ages. I love how the accidental TKs are basically part of the game
Wow this sounds terrible. Also, I don't think this is possible for adults. Coordinating 4 adults is extremely difficult and not realistic. Most gamers play solo queue.You're not wrong about the lack of an actual queue.
If you're playing solo, there's a near-zero chance anyone will join your in-progress session.
If you're trying to play with friends, your only hope of playing together is using the 'Join Game' function from your Steams friend list.
In both instances, you shouldn't wait around to be "Let in" to the game. If you fire up the game and you're not on your ship in less than 5 minutes, alt-F4 and trying again is the way.
