Man developers for some reason don't know, if you make the game fun, you will get lots of sales, maybe not that game but when you make another game (a sequel), people will be like, "Oh shit, last time they made a game it was the fucking best experience". Something like that, then you'll get more people to buy the game because people will tell their friends and all that and they'll buy it.
Is the dead island pc release on par with the release of Hellgate: London and/or Age of Conan and/or APB? Your right, these developers need to start releasing finished games instead of pushing them out the door, because whether they get the initial buck from the release, they lose customers in the long run.
can rival the francise so to be compedative they are spending alot more this time to broadcast their game to the wider gaming community and not just BF fans.
I agree with alot that you have to say but I think that the reason that games like Battlefield 3 and alot of other games comming out right now have to step up their marketing is just to keep up with competition. The Call of Duty franchise has basicaly dominated the first person shooter genre until recently (Im not saying its the best, just sales wise it dominates) and this is mainly due to the hype built up before the games release. DICE and EA now belieive that they have create a game which
@vol1tion What do you mean by resolution? I know i probably sound like an real idiot but i'm basically getting this pc for bf3, and if i can't run it on medium with my resolution, can i fix it somehow?
@ikheetjason The resolution of your monitor, which you can find by going to your display properties. Typical monitor resolutions include 1920x1080, 1680x1050, etc.
So many brilliant points - this video needs to be seen by more people! This doesn't just apply to multiplayer, either - Dead Island and New Vegas are two examples that stick out in my mind, Brink probably being the most recent multiplayer stuff up. Where as the release of say, Portal 2, was brilliance - the game came out, everyone loved it, valve got praise. I think beta testing should be utilised by more people, too - and not for promo, but for TESTING. Hopefully BF3 beta does some good things!
Bit annoying you have to spend 800 bucks just to play one game. They should have some kind of setting for BF3 which allows you to run it on PC's which are not bad, but not good enough. I can run BFBC2 fine, but I doubt I can run BF3 at all. My PC is a lot stronger than the consoles yet I can't play the game on it, me no like.
Hey Voltion, how well do you think a 560 ti with an i7 OCed to 3.9 GHz will run BF3? ( I'm new to PC gaming) I'd appreciate it if you could tell kinda estimate the FPS. Thnx <3 ;D
@vol1tion I use 1920x1080. And medium settings sound good, AA and frame rate is the only thing that makes me mad, i hate stupid jaggies and lag, makes me rage. :3
@vol1tion why r they making it so heavy of a game? if they want more money then they should just make the SR lower... a bloody 560 ti only medium? WTF! I have a GT 320 and a Q8300 with 4gb ram im not buying anything new for shit ill just play older games and mw2 in low - medium settings which i understand cuz my gt 320 sucks
@settherules123 I'm sure there will be a pretty low bar for running the game on low settings. That being said, I'm glad to see a game push the graphical envelope in a way that we haven't really seen since the first Crysis.
i think bf3 will actually outdo cod mw3...cod has failed over and over to change anything...every cod is the same, every cod makes the same mistakes..i hereby declare my loyalty to DICE
good point, but i felt like you were just reading straight off a piece of paper. try to make it a little more impov and honest. im not hating though, good job
Hi I'm new to your vids and pc gaming in general. I am working on a build for bf3. My question is: What kind of fps will I get from an i7 2600k and a gtx 580? Thanks
i agree with you completely, once they have your consent that you will purchase the game, they have no other reason to satisfy you any further, it is almost like they are bribing you to buy it before u hear bad things about it
@milkweed93 so you think releasing the wrong copy is perfectly fine? and even now with the latest version, there are still a shitload of bugs and glitches.
It's been like this for years, buddy. I'm sure you've heard me go off a time or two about this exact thing. I hope now you can sort of understand how I feel. I, too, am sick of getting half-assed games or games only designed to last 10 months and then sink another 60 bucks in. Offering different special deals on a pre-order is silly, especially since they don't disclose why these different places get different bonuses. BF3 is six weeks from release and already has 75 million dollars made.
Do you know what will actually change in Battlefield 3? I know there's vehicles, but those were in B2. It looks a lot like BFBC2 with better graphics. They even kept the shitty spotting system! I might just pass on this one, but it really depends. I don't want more of the same What do you think?
@shantanuh I believe BF3 will feel similar to BC2 in terms of how it plays (the gunplay, gametypes, etc.), but BF3 should have more fluid movement, larger scale battles, new weapons and features (meaning more/different viable playstyles), completely overhauled graphics, and a host of other changes. Overall, if done right, I think BF3 has the potential to be a large step up from BC2.
@vol1tion Dead island is a game I am very interested in and would really like to play. However, the problems this game has had since release worry me!
@Ryd3r22 Yep, I was interested as well, but now I'm obviously glad I decided to pass. I'll probably wait and pick it up when it inevitably goes on sale on Steam after a while.
it seems game developers arent treating the community with the amount of thought that they should. they may come across as though they are listening, but i sense a cheap con in thier words. this applies for many game developers. i suppose its just the way the world works these days. btw great commentary man
I do agree, I'm just wondering how long it'll be before a company here in the UK get's by the government for deceptive advertising. Black Ops nearly got activision sued here because the game straight up didn't work as well as advertised, which was coincidentally the same time they started releasing patches for ps3 and pc.
I'm still waiting though for Ofcom to sue one of these companies but I think it won't be happening soon to avoid damages to the economy... sad face...
Really nice commentary man, I loved the gameplay, and the intellegent commentary. Especially because there are so many 13 year olds that don't know what they're saying so these videos are awesome.
It almost makes me want to pre-order more games because I know they will be incomplete and I'll get something free out of it when they release with a major bug. Along the same lines of wanting a complete game on release, it seems like more and more devs are planning dlc before their game even releases. Deus Ex has dlc releasing 2 months after the game releases? Tell me they didn't have that planned from day one. Devs care more about money than quality product at this point. Example: Cod xp.
@CharlieTango91 I didn't have time to touch on pre-planned DLC in this video, but it doesn't sit right with me either, especially if DLC is included on the disc and simply locked at launch.
@vol1tion I think the Dev's try to hard to release the games as fast as they can. I'd rather a release date postponed and have a good game on release then get it earlier and have unpolished items!
Hey Brandon, I have a AMD Radeon HD 6450, Do you think that the motherboard it is working with will be compatible one of the highest end AMD cards? Or maybe an nVdia card ?
@1994LSSM Yep, your motherboard should be compatible with the high-end AMD/Nvidia cards. You just have to make sure your case has enough room and check that your power supply has enough wattage to handle a higher-end video card.
@NavoB93 I don't know who were the two other guys, but I disliked it. I'm sure I'm getting hated now, but I wont give a thumbs up to a video where so many kills were made with CG-Whoring.
@thetute59 Hey, no need to worry, I was just joking =P, but I think you should base you like/dislike on the commentary, but who am I to judge? Do whatever you want =D
@thetute59 I do what it takes to protect the bombsite plant, and if that means guarding it with rockets from the kit I switched to, then that's what I'll do. I'm sorry you didn't care for the video.
@vol1tion "I do what it takes to..." oh man I can't tell how often I heard this sentence. Why not starting to cheating then?^^ Besides that's what people who use imho lame tactics always say^^ Almost like "its part of the game" from noobtubers in cod ;) Look I did care for the video. Since I saw a huge part of those CG-Whoring, it is part of your video. I sure did not respond to every second of gameplay I experianced^^
