Low and behold, I've been sent yet another X1 beta code. This time though, I'm looking for some entertainment. So, send me your best tech related jokes and I'll give whoever makes me laugh the hardest during my Sunday hangover pain will be crowned the winner! GO, BE FUNNY!!!

 

Edit: Quote this comment when replying so I don't have to look through the whole thread, I'm lazy like that! 

Well I played my first game on the X1, I thought the graphics looked and played great, better than how BF4 looks which I still thinks looks good, as for titanfall I am crap at it but will be buying it for sure and so glad I bought an X1 now the filter has been removed improving the visuals a lot.

I got a chance to check it out a few hours ago thanks to thechronic hooking me up with a code, still never received one for signing up, and I am glad I did get to briefly check it out, as I think I will be skipping it. Just not my cup of tea at the end of the day. Just seems all over the place and a tad too chaotic. Ironically I really loved the movement of things during the tutorial, but once I checked the game out, did not think it really translated to the actual matches well. Just turned into your typical MP FPS. I barely saw any people wall running in the game, and whenever I tried to do so, it really did nothing to actually enhance things as it could and should. Maybe it was just the matches I played, and others are playing the game using the new features that supposedly separate it from other FPS's, but based on what I have seen, do not think I will be taking that $60 plunge to find out. 

 

I made the extra effort to play it like the tutorial teaches you and it really doesn't add anything to it. This game has been hyped out to be something it's not. It really is just another run and gun, but it just so happens to have mechs and some parkour thrown in. It's definitely a competent shooter in it's own right, it doesn't come across "messy" or anything. It's just....meh :/ Definitely not worth the 5 years of development anyway. How they couldn't even come up with an SP in that time to really showcase the game is a little bewildering. And 100% not worth the asking price :no:

Yeah I had hopes for this, but I think I'll pass until its on sale for a significant discount.

    • I totally disagree. Very little good comes out of governments all around the world manipulating everything they can and usually the people are not the benefactors. What you say about being restricted and expensive sounds almost like the arguments against firearms and why banning them will protect people as if making something illegal somehow will prevent the criminals from having and using them. AI being far less mainstream could simply mean the average person will not benefit, but "big brother" and the corporations will benefit, which is almost for sure NOT a good thing.

    • "connect with audiences" is the most obvious corporate speak you can think of. I only bought Need for Speed from EA because it was the only racing game with cops in existence and I dig that. Now that they killed off NFS franchise, I have nothing to spend money on. EA is officially dead for me, just like Ubisoft which I've been boycotting for some 20 years now...
