Ghost recon is a $20 or less purchase it's basically the division narcos edition looks promising as good coop fun but the division beta looked promising also im not falling for a 2 week game again.

I recently picked the division back up and maxed out the new level in an evening the games aren't even challenging anymore

RE 7 is

anybody that's done,what's about the average time to complete it?

My first completion was roughly 13 hours. But I explored every nook and cranny.

My second playthrough to get all collectibles (missed a few of each on first playthrough) didn't take that long. Maybe 6 hours.

I then did a speedrun for the achievement and to get the X ray Glasses and Circle Saw unlockables before starting Madhouse. Finished my run in 3h10 minutes without really paying much attention to a guide, only to make sure I was below a certain time threshhold at major sections.

I'm now about halfway through on madhouse. It's fairly easy with the X ray glasses, both defence scrolls so you take no damage when blocking and the circle saw, which effectively functions like a chainsaw without an engine that can run out.

But even with all that I've died a number of times due to molded attacks that catch me by surprise when I'm circle sawing them or mis-timed a block

The boss fight against the grossest boss in the game (no spoilers but it should be obvious who that is to anyone who played it lol) on madhouse was still pretty damn hard and cost me every healing item I had. Even sawing away at her non-stop took a very long time. Idk if I would've even been able to kill her if I had to use my guns and the little ammo I had at that point.

finally beat dishonored 2 over the weekend and the game was one of the best to come out last year. Gameplay was awesome and really great level design by Arkane Studios. Enemy AI is even better than in the first game and there were parts where i actually had to kill people which i dint have to do in the first game.

one of the color features i liked was how you can customize the difficulty outside of the standard difficulty levels. so you can make enemies more perceptive, make your footsteps louder, seen easier in light and more. 

I enjoyed it a lot more than the first game but it still has the same problems as the first one i.e. annoying to aim blink/ far reach powers and a story that's pretty shallow. but the gameplay really makes up for it as well as the world in the game still being interesting to take in.

if none of you guys have tried out the game i highly recommend it. the limited edition comes with the definitive edition of the first game which includes all the DLC so that is a big plus.

Thats all that matters to Ubisoft at the end of the day. Not sure why that should be the case for any gamers.

Ubi, EA, Act.
We should all know how they get down at this point.
Unless you're hurting their paper, they're not listening to you.

I don't really need them to listen to me. I'm just not going to get their games and enjoy what I like
All I was saying I don't get the point of comparing Divison's sales to Destiny's like it should matter if there's a sharp contrast in quality of game regardless.

yeah man give it a try it's underrated imo. The first game is really good too I'd recommend it first if you want to know the entire story before the sequel. The DE has two campaign stories to it as well as challenge maps as well.

Exactly. We're on the same page. If I ain't feeling a certain company/game franchise I'm not going to talk about how much I dislike it for pages.

I'm just going to give other companies like Playground Games my money. 

I didn't. I clearly posted what Ubisoft would have to say on the matter, PR speak aside.

Orange light got me last night

 

[Warmachine85]

I liked wildlands. Is it great? No. Its like a division far cry destiny mix. Driving is trash in it tho. Some character models look trash too.


Speaking of divison. I loved it too i didnt play on release date i started after 1.4 patch i think. The gun play was top notch imo. Still not a prefect game.

Like shotta said tho wildlands a 20 dollar game at best. Not saying its a bad game but its not worth 60. Missions seem to be the same thing. Its way to easy. AI teammates are dumb as spike. I enjoyed it tho. Probably enjoy for a week then thats it.

 

[iYen]

Driving's trash? Supposedly, it's the biggest open world ubi game. Given that, driving had to be on point for me.

 

[blakep267]

Driving is always bad in Ubi games, because the camera and car don't work together if that makes sense. Like when you play for a Horizon, the camera goes wherever you are driving/ looking at. But in Ubi games you have to turn the camera and the car at the same time. Ex if you are driving towards a curve normally you could just drive around the curve and the camera would adjust. With ubi the car turns but the camera stays the same

I never drove or used vehicles in Far Cry 4, and one of my beefs with the Watchdogs 2 trial was this city was way to big to run around on foot

Yup your exactly right. I just started walking everywhere it was that frustrating.

 

[shottadru]

I preferred using the choppers, the driving was trash Shooting from choppers is trash tho in GR. If the mix up the side missions it can be dope but I doubt Ubi actually will put effort in their game. It. Will be a mix of 2/3 side missions and mad missions fighting up the cartel tree. Will get boring quick like a far cry game

Finished RE7, 10 hours 40 minutes on normal...Loved it.Really hope this is the direction the franchise sticks with.

The puzzles sucked they just need consistent difficult puzzles.

This.The boss battles were inconsistent too,earlier ones were way harder than the later ones.
