More gristle from the rumour mill:
For what it’s worth, more pointless stuff in Fort Tarsis:
Woo! New exciting lore on load screens! Still no proper text chat or loot changes.
Livestream tomorrow should be the usual shitshow.
Honestly, it’s good to see them fixing stuff. And the change to be able to hop around between striders in freeplay is a nice one.
I am surprised that there’s still no loot changes. My only guess (hope?) is they’ve given up experimenting and are doing a complete overhaul on the system.
Yeah, I like the freeplay fast travel option. That’s a good add.
Indicators to the same old broken loot drops. Wtf.
I don’t care. I don’t play for loot drops, I play for content and the joy of the game. As long as I can get some legendary equipment, I’m fine.
- Fixed visual issues with the curtains at the entrance to the bar in Fort Tarsis.
…
That took a team of 4-5 people at least a week. ;)
And now today after the patch matchmaking in Anthem is now worse because to prevent you loading into a dungeon solo they make you wait longer until group fills up. With reduced player count (Xbox one has less than 2500 players and the game sold 3 million) people reporting today it never starts dungeon for them now. Because not enough people patched yet.
It’s killed off any remaining people playing GM2/GM3 at not starting after 30+ minutes:
It’s like they continue not to QA any of this.
Funny that they are trying to fix the mess they created. Matchmaking is shit just because there are not enough players. And there are not enough players because the game is shit. Now they come with some sort of solution for an issue with matchmaking that doesn’t exist. If the game was somewhat good, this shouldn’t be even a subject, you would have more than enough players to satisfy every matchmaking needs. So just fix the damn game and stop wasting time on useless self invented problems.
Magic
Until there is new content (and better loot management for the Loot crowd), the only thing worth playing is GM1
That’s cold comfort to people who have not yet reached level 30.
Tru Dat. I remember having to do Legendary Missions solo even when there were a lot of people still playing, but I was in that no-man’s land between Finishing the Heart of Rage campaign (at around Level 26) and grinding to 30.
Looks like resource nodes in freeplay broke and don’t spawn at all. Not that the crafting materials were good for anything.
Rei, maybe take a break and let others enjoy the game!
EA released the schedule for their E3 livestream yesterday… Anthem is nowhere to be found on it, but games like Apex Legends and The Sims 4 are, along with the usual sports games.
Not exactly an encouraging sign, if you were hoping EA (and by extension Bioware) were bullish about Anthem being a notable part of their plans going forward.
Dead game is confirmed dead. Here’s a summary of today’s announcements:
In one guy’s opinion. I’ll log back in for new content or a group of friends, because the gameplay was fun.
Sounds cool. There was a new stronghold too right?
