We wanted to know about the game Yeah, we learned a little about what we didn't already know but considering we awaited almost a year Oh, actually, I think it is a year for more gameplay and information We only got a bit of it many were left underwhelmed due to basically not really learning anything new about the game Today, we will learn many many new things about the game including story plus progression loop customization co-op PvP raids or dungeons and many other in-game features. I'm sure you'll be interested in knowing about Now this information comes from Mark Dara the executive producer of anthem He has done a great job in answering questions about the game and that's where all this info comes from So let's go people now if you are watching this and wonder why is that on what anthem is Well, here is a quick briefing into the world of anthem anthem is an upcoming online multiplayer action RPG game being developed by By the way and published by Electronic Arts. The game will be released worldwide on February 22nd 2019 anthem combines third-person shooter and action role-playing game elements in a contagious open world Shared with up to four other players in which they take the role of a freelancer done in fully Customizable Exile suits called javelins you pilot these javelins suits of powered armor that let you flight and swim Javelins also let you survive in the hostile world of anthem a world left unfinished by their shapers The game features both single-player and cooperative multiplayer elements in a shared world that can have up to four squad members per team teams can fight savage beasts and ruthless marauders while exploring lost ruins and Experiencing massive world altering terrain Accurances your primary enemy in the story will be the dominion a human nation bent on Subjugating the other people the dominion believes that they can control the tools of the shapers and bend them to their own Purposes the dominion are an ancient enemy with a secret in their past and that's basically a quick briefing of what I can think of But I'm guessing you already knew all of that So let's get into the details you may not have heard yet And let's start with progressing and how you can play the game where you can play the game in either solo or a party or four Matchmaking will be a thing too. The structure of the game is encapsulated in the concept of our world my story When you are out on a mission you are focused on that the world is shared across everyone and Changes you share Cataclysmic storms and time of day with people you aren't playing with This offers a kind of story telling that hasn't existed in Bioware games before When you are done on the mission you can return to a base like Fort Tarsis Here you will talk to characters customize your suit and see the results of your actions Your base is a single player experience removing social pressure from those who want to spend time with the characters of Fort Tarsis If you decide to play the game solo solo is you won't get help from AI controlled allies and in-game NPCs Although you will come across them in-game they will speak to you throughout missions They won't be on the mission with you your character will have voiced dialogue. That's good to know They will be in-game relationships accordingly as you'd expect with storytelling buns build etc etc But no romances on the cars at the moment missions throughout the game are set with one outcome But the conversations we have and interactions we have within our hub will definitely affect their lives As we know you can play the game solo or in a team in a team means you can travel the diverse world together And help one another out on said missions if you're at the same place on a said mission You'll both get full credit for that mission if you do a mission you've already done to help out You will get special rewards, so that's awesome dungeons raids or what's now known as strongholds will require a team of four And cannot be done solo these strongholds like many other features are not required to complete the story So us as freelancers starting out into the world of anthem you actually start the campaign as a ranger The other javelins are unlocked throughout the story the colossus the storm and the interceptor It's important to note all are in the game at release You just got to do your job and unlocking them before you can use them your freelancer can change suits So there is no need for multiple profiles one character one freelancer multiple javelin suits Important not your whole team can use the same javelin suit if they choose to if you are doing a mission together You can change suits within your forward base or at four at tasks that is up to you Now the way leveling works up is as follows You level up your freelancer, so changing suit after using a specific single javelin for multiple levels doesn't change anything Your freelancers level unlocks perks across all javelins So leveling up your freelancer guys affects all javelins you own So it won't be a single javelin suit progression system or javelin suits and level with your freelancer The javelin suits as we know all are for different unique perks So it makes sense that some weapons can only be used by some javelin suits The javelin suits as we know can fly and do allow you to breathe through a certain extent under water But flying causes your jets to overheat you'll have to land to cool them down So be careful where you're landing people or you can find other ways in cooling them down Under water you will have an oxygen meter, which if it runs out guys. Yes, you become a sponge bob's food There will be a revive feature though. I'm not sure about underwater, but there is one here The javelin suits do have melee attacks, by the way, but at launch there is no pure melee build javelin suits And there most probably won't be at launch now because you all spend a lot of time beyond the walls You will obviously take a lot of damage clearly. So how does health work? Well, it doesn't regen you will have to pick up health This could come in many forms not confirmed yet Javelin suits are upgradable via loot drops found within the world So expect bigger jets, bigger air tanks, scarier weapons and so forth Loot found within the mass open world can be crafted to change the way your javelin plays So crafting has been confirmed. That's absolutely epic You can also unlock cosmetic items to change the way you look This includes armor packs and paint jobs We can also change the play style of our javelin suits by changing our weapon loadouts There is a separate personalization system which allows us to change our appearance Also changing the appearance of said items like changing colors can be reverted if you want to We will also be able to change the way our freelancers look, which is cool Now progressing in a game is confirmed by new skills, weapons and enhancements So there is that reason to play and level up the higher level up you get The better gear you unlock simple as that Looting game as I've mentioned drops from multiple sources out in the world Enemies and so forth and it's believed that there are at least five priorities of loot Loot is also instance per player So it won't drop on the floor where others can steal it You complete something you get that loot simple while on the subject of loot What about loot boxes micro transactions? How will they affect the game? Well loot boxes are not in the game You will be able to buy vanity items, but they offer you no benefit in game in terms of power Also the vanity items you can buy you can also earn in game Now PvP is it going to be a thing? Well not yet And I believe they don't currently have any plans for it in the works This comes because of a number of reasons It allows Bioware to go abroad out on gear and weapons without worrying about balance as you can imagine In a game as such multiple javelins gears unlocked at certain levels The imbalance would be absolutely crazy But there are many ways of solving this so I'm optimistic we will eventually see PvP sometime after launch So yes, you can play with your friends, but you just can't play against each other as of yet Also no couch co-op so two people can't play split screen on the same console You also need to be online to play due to dedicated servers There will be no core plots locked behind dlc So I guess this confirms dlc in the future won't have lock story as such. That's good news More javelins suits will come after launch too So four javelins suits at launch with the possibility of many more added post launch Awesome So how would a game run? Well, previously they stated it will be locked at 30 frames per second on console They might actually prove themselves wrong, especially on newer visions I'm pretty sure people will see 60 frames per second on the Xbox One X Aim assist will also be a thing for controllers At the moment currently there will also be no cross network play at launch The first person view will also be a thing too, absolutely amazing And what about a demo or a beta of the game where millions can play and give their input? Well, they do plan on getting the game out to a wider audience before launch But at the moment can't discuss what's planned and lastly guys, why is it called anthem? Well, it's a long story today state But anthem of creation is a major thing in the world and people indeed it is And on that note, we have come to the end of the video I honestly hope you've learned something new about the game today If you haven't well used bigger anthem nerd as me But yeah guys, I do truly appreciate your support If you'd like to hit that thumbs up button, I would love you forever Remember subscribe if you are new around here and enjoy and want more anthem videos And people hopefully I will catch you on that next one
