>>140797096
>>140797442Pandering: The Star Wars Experience and Boring Age: Rise of the Bland, yeah, no. Both were pieces of shit, they can go and fucking die along with Bethesda, maybe then we can finally have decent RPGs again.
I will not sleep til Bioware takes itself and EA down
>>140797775>norps are actually retarded enough to think people don't just hide and report shitpostshaha, oh wow
>>140797775God damn I hate drones. Fuck.
>>140797096*citation needed*Dont get me wrong, I hope its all true, but still.Where are the facts eggman ? You said there would be facts.
>>140797096>down to 72,000 active playerssource?
>>140797874>bioware>taking EA downthey still have dice and ea sports.no way EA is going down
>>140798162>DICE went full COD>Sports being sued by NCAA player's associationDon't be so sure.
>>140798162>diceFucked up with BF3.>ea sportsThey are being sued over the monopoly or some licensing shit.
>>140798028that was posted with a source at some point earlier this week, so i took it to be legit. by the rule-of-10%, they probably have about 800k active subs. maybe a little more.
I wonder how the /v/irgins that were defending this are feeling.You know the ones, "huuurr /v/ hates video games, always do the opposite of what /v/ says hurrr"
>>140798263>doesnt think DICE went full retard with bc2DICE fucked up the moment its owners sold themselves to EA in 2006. Their failure was predicted to happen years ago. EA ruins everything it lays its shitty hands on. Every game that was developed fully after the merger (bc2, p4f, bf3) has been complete and utter shit, both in terms of gameplay and peripherals.
>paying for patcheslol
>>140798451>always do the opposite of what /v/ says hurrThat's funny, I discovered VTMB thanks to /v/.REINSTALL
>>140798451Considering none have yet to open their whore mouths I'd say they have learned their place for now.
>>140798610
>>140798610Assmad biodrone detected
>>140798495Wasn't BF2 made after they sold themselves to EA?
>>140798537they are too busy making tera and gw2 hate threads attempting asch paradigm hater redirection. far easier to move the herd slightly that stand your ground and defend against it.
>>140798737No, people are just waking up to tera being just another shitty korean mmo. Take a look at the generals on /vg/ sometime, you'll see once avid players now hate it
>banning for killing other players on pvp serversWhaaaat? What is the story behind this? lol
Well, that's torible
>>140797775That doesn't even stir shit anymore.
>>140797096Look, we all hate TOR here but most of this is horseshit. Namely:>dev team replaced with dragon age one.>banning players for swearing to freinds in whispers>which means they monitor whispers.>banning for killing other players on pvp serversThis game is shitty enough that we don't have to make shit up to be mad about.
>>140798353>by the rule of 10%, they probably have about 800k active subsThat math was retarded, and won't even come close to approximating the actual number of subs. It will grossly overestimate them. We don't have enough information to approximate subs by peak population.
>tfw your former best friend became a swtor addict, gained weight and doesn't talk to you anymore because you refuse to play swtor with him
>>140798957You're not fooling anyone
>>140798858people are waking up to gw2 being just another p2w game made by NCSoft.
>>140798957But:>banning players for swearing to freinds in whispersdid actually happen.
troofax
>>140798987He works for them, don't fall for it.
>>140798713EA bought them in 2006. 2142 and BC1 were already in development at that point. Nobody cared about how casual 1943 was because it was trying to be and ended up being a very fun experience. The only issue with BF3 is that it's trying to be something and failing at it miserably. Nobody cares if the game goes full COD. The problem is when it stops halfway and says please don't leave us veterans, I swear I'm a real Battlefield game!DICEA should just kill BF3 off quickly and painlessly. It doesn't deserve to suffer after all those years of quality games.
>>140798957all proven correct actually.crymore biotrinated fool
>>140799018How can they when the game isn't even out and beta weekends done until next month possibly
>>140798987He's already indoctrinated, there is no saving your friend.

>>140798518The funny thing with this isnt them asking people to pay for patches.Its that they are giving away 90 days game time for 9.99, thats much cheaper than normal subscription. The are doing anything they can to get a little bit of money through the door.Bioware are in full on desperation mode right now.

>>140799283Well, I'd call that a victory.
>>140799045>G4TV gave a review of 5/5 and praised the game for "Top notch music and voice acting" and "hundreds of hours of content."[61]>PC Gamer gave a 93/100, praising the story, voice acting, and the amount of content available.[68]
>>140799762Which is why you should ignore anyone that uses gaming sites as an argument to say a game is good.
>>140799283What the fuck
>>140799762if only they had paid their employees instead of every gaming site known in existence.
>>140798518>new conflict threatening the future of the galaxy>threatening the future of the galaxyHow can this be true if1) TOR takes place in the early star wars universe and cannot impact what happens later2) It's optional DLC3) "Failing" the DLC doesn't make a difference, you can just try again
>>140799313Yes, they want the pad the active subscriber numbers as much as they can so they can continue to hide the truth from investors
>>140799991Meanwhile they are shitting out a MP DLC for Mass Effect 3. Their business sense is uncanny.At this point a drunken hobo off the street could do a better job.

>>140799762G4 giving something a 5 out of 5 is pretty much a guarantee of mediocre bullshit. They're the gaming industries biggest cheerleaders. If EA actually did introduce paying for clips in games you could damn well be sure someone on that site would not only defend it but spout some stupid shit about how they were "excited" for it and couldn't wait to see what new and exciting shit EA is going to shovel down our throats next. Gaming journalism is a fucking joke dude.

>>down to 72,000 active players>>lost 97% of its total player basehaven't played TOR, don't really give a shit about the game or bioware.but I've read the article and you're blatantly misrepresenting informationthe 72,000 figure is the average amount of people logged on at any given time, not the total number of people left playing the game.

>>140803648no
>>140803648Nwn2 isn't a bioware game you clueless moron.
>>140803569To be totally honest, I'm a faggot who bought the CE of ME3 because I was stupid and didn't listen to /v/.I would have bought DLC for ME3, but after the ending, it's dead to me unless they fix it.
We get it. The ship is sinking/sunk. This joke was funny the first week but got it's old news. It's like spouting $599 or riiiidge racer
>>140803648I thought NWN2 was Obsidian?
>>140803648fuck off, the threads are better than the game
>>140803751No, just the expansion Mask of the Betrayer
>>140803491because their shareholders are complete fucking morons. During the most resent conference call one of them asked how TOR would hold up against GW2 and MoP and Ravioli told them that they weren't competitors because they weren't star wars and the idiots bought it. Nobody decided to follow up on what he said. If you thought Ravioloi was a moron then these guys make him look like Albert Eisenstein
All these screen caps are trolls.
