This game is DoA. The Division, Remnant and Destiny are better.
the division and destiny are nothing alike at all beyond having shooting mechanics and numbers
From the trailer, it seems they seem to be going for a more complex loot and ability system than Destiny but the jury is out, what really bore me to tears with those looter shooters is the expectation developers have of you having all that work to get those guns to use on the same content because they cant bother to support their game with new content or are syphoning the resources into another project. Tried Warframe and Destiny and while they have their qualities, I couldnt stand the faggotry of being on a hamster wheel that go nowhere while the devs keep trying to scam you into wasting money on microtransactions.

Last time I checked, Destiny was making your weapons useless so they could scam you by selling the same weapons later and Warframe keeps being the same no lifer serial killer autist haven as always was, maybe this one will be better.

Ehh... fuck them. Why a fucking rootkit if they dont even have PvP?
It's not even a live services game afaict, it's like borderlands where you can optionally play coop

anticheat rootkits are being put in singleplayer games now, it's obvious where this is going: to prevent people from "cheating" to obtain microtransaction bulshit

Yeah,kwans are really bad at insulting,they have only shit and fuck. It doesn't help that english is pretty primitive language. Tho at least scummy brits are creative when it comes to insulting.

the devs are polish
Didn't they say something along the lines of "we barely speak english so we just wrote a lot of swearing" in regards's to Bulletstorm's writing?
Guess none of them bothered to get some lessons.

Played the demo, the sounds effects were all glitched, the guns felt like shit.

That's my impression as well. Destiny is beautiful, extremely polished, and the campaign is top notch...that said the character building is shallow as a puddle and the game itself is "balanced" to the point where the ARPG powerfantasy/builds aspect is not even remotely satisfying.

If Outriders proves to be deeper and more robust in that aspect, I don't see why it wouldn't be able to carve out a niche in the genre. All it needs to have a deep item/build system with cool synergies and lots of gameplay altering stuff and it should do just fine.

Problem of Destiny is that was made for casuals and balanced for pvp, so you get shallow as fuck systems with half of the guns/weapon perks only really useful on pvp on a fucking pve looter shooter, what is supreme retardation. It is a pity because it is a very polished shooter, many shooters fail into making the weapons feel good to shoot and Destiny is really good at that, this one doesnt have pvp and this is enough to make it better so the loot isnt as just as cosmetic as it was on Destiny but a fucking rootkit on my system? Nah...

Walk backwards with a pistol or a fusion rifle and the shotgun ape is neutered.

Outriders is Coming to Xbox Game Pass on Day One - Xbox Wire

Should still be up for those who picked up that "3 months for a dollar" deal they had a little while ago.

(edit: progress cannot be transferred to the Steam or Epic versions)

DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS. you would have to wait for a windows game store version for it to be included in the PC gamepass.

PSA; Outriders is not coming to Gamepass PC : outriders (reddit.com)

Some informative videos that came out in the past weeks:









^While the skills do encourage aggressiveness instead of turtling, he's probably wrong about cover being pointless, at least on higher levels. The demo already has some infamous sniper enemies with the highest player kill counts among NPCs.

(I like that his character is called ShillUp)

Yeah, it was a bit disappointing to see the Anthem-like savage world turning into Fallujah after the timeskip, but some of the higher level content shows that the color green still exists and you don't fight only rapemurder raiders. (like the example Expedition shown in the november video)

haven't played enough to judge but it seems alright I guess.
doesn't seem to really do anything unique, I'll probably play through it because I'm a sucker for sci-fi games. It's basically just a more serious borderlands crossed with some destiny 2.

actually has stats, so there's that I guess

Fallujah seems like a breath of fresh air after almost a decade of cinematic forest hikes.

Read online that they improved the gunplay, asked a streamer with early access and he confirmed it feels better than it did during the beta. Dunno what that actually means but we'll see. Picked this up for 40 bucks after tax. I'm really interested in their approach which isn't "games as a service" focused, more similar to Diablo 2's structure than it is Destiny.

It's online-only, but not a live services game. So it has the worst parts of both put together with nothing to stop cheaters.
I have pretty much zero interest in playing post-story content in a game that does nothing to prevent cheating.
