Video Game General 4.0: You wanna enjoy your console? There's an app for that

It’s kinda silly that FPS games on console don’t have a M/KB option nowadays, imo.

I think you’re confusing the word "farce" with ***“a game that was just fundamentally flawed from the ground up”***.

It’s not like the developers lied about Watchdogs or something, it just wasn’t that great of a game. Which sucks, because the concept of it sounded so dope on paper and the things it DID do right it did awesomely.

Come to think of it, one of the only reasons I played it as much as I did was solely because of that multiplayer mode that let you “invade” another player’s game and hack into their servers. Watching another player run around in the street confused as fuck looking for you as you hid nearby was just too good of a feeling. Hope that comes back in the sequel.

It’s even more silly when you consider games like Final Fantasy XIV have Keyboard AND Mouse functionality, but not shooters.

Same here. Suckers were annoying just as the Minions are now.

All of the characters who shoot in Overwatch get an instant boost in accuracy but I think the character that becomes even more dangerous would be Mcree. It’s hard aim at a distant Widowmaker consistently on console but PC Mcree can use his six shooter pretty much like a smaller sniper rifle. Console owners don’t want any of that.

Watch Dogs even with the disappointment it brought was not a bad game, the biggest issue was it had alot of untapped potential that was not realized.

New Saints Row looks kinda cool, it is like they are mixing in zaniness but dialing it down a notch from the previous game.

From the sound of things PC players arent too happy about it either lol.Thats what happens when you give a character like that Hit Scan.

As much fun as I have playing Overwatch, I knew it would have a ton of balance issues especially with multiple of the same characters allowed. Honestly McCree being OP is only the start of the balance issues this game is going to have.

shrug Balance is over rated anyway

Fun and balance are not mutually exclussive.
Developers should always thrieve for a balanced and fun game.

There is this too… Don’t know how well it works but if you plug this in your ps4 you should be able to use your usb keyboard and mouse.

So when are we getting Sleeping Dogs 2?

Yea sure, but most of the time they focus so much on balance they suck out all the fun.

Fun>>>>balance. Balance is over rated.

There is nothing fun on unbalanced messes.
Besides, outside some developers, most try to keep a good ratio between both.

Well…If we are talking about fighting games…
The ones that are considered the most “unbalanced” are also the ones that are the most fun.

Yeh you figure that one out for yourself :bgrin:

And some of them are considered some of the worst ever made.

And some of the balanced ones are considered the worst ever made as well so thats not saying much either way.

There’s a “balance” between overpowered cheese and “fairness” between characters in a FG…

On one end, you have your anime fighters that dgaf and keep stacking characters with options on top of options, then you have your NRS games that take away anything even remotely interesting within a week of its discovery.

Finding that middle ground is especially difficult in this age of patches, but I feel this trend of nerfing top tiers rather than buffing the weaker characters needs to stop.

Soo

Nothing like socom this E3?

Fuck

I mean…

MvC2 is one of the most unbalanced fighters I’ve ever seen, yet it had a strong and active community for over a decade because it’s simply just fun to play.
