It takes a lot of balls to launch on the same day as Fallout 4 (and mere days after Call of Duty). I'm surprised they didn't delay it to get a better window. It wouldn't be the first time a publisher has done that.

Anybody know how long an npc will remain hostile to your presence if they catch you stealing?
-
I think they ran out of buttons to use. If I remember correctly, waiting was done with the back/select button on consoles for Fallout 3. In Fallout 4 that button is for switching the camera modes. The ps4 controller technically has enough buttons to make up for it since the touchpad counts as multiple inputs, but I don't think the Xbone controller does. I don't remember what new mechanic was added that needed a button. I think either sprinting or gun bashing.

Dogmeat is probably in Sanctuary. You probably just haven't noticed because he never wanders around. He stays in one of the doghouses. My advice is to delete every doghouse in Sanctuary except for one, so then he'll always be in that one when you need him.

That's the nice way of saying they're going to send them on a cruise, then sink it near a deserted island and move on to other things.

So uh...what's going on with the site lately?

PS4 version here. Haven't really run into any noticeable bugs or framerate drops yet. I've only gotten about four hours in, but I would think that would be long enough for me to notice a framerate drop. Either the day one patch fixed the issue for the most part or my PS4 is special. Edit: I just read that having a faster hard drive helps to mitigate the stuttering problem. I use a hybrid drive in my PS4 so maybe that's why the game feels fine to me.
-
The day one patch hasn't rolled out yet, right? I hardly expect it to fix everything but people who play it after the official release may not have so many framerate drops compared to leaked copies.
-
I saw this trailer in the theater earlier today. The movie itself will probably be nothing special at all, but I have to say that I really like the stylized look of the cats and dogs. I like it when animators take advantage of the medium to make animals into caricatures of themselves.
-
The Peanuts Movie I will admit that I am biased due to having grown up reading Peanuts, but I think it was still a worthy adaptation. It is definitely made for people who hold affection for the characters, though, so if you don't already like Peanuts then you probably won't suddenly change your mind with this movie. Still, it's a nice film that ties up a lot of those loose ends that were left behind with Charles Schulz's passing. It definitely respects the source material, which makes sense because I heard his son was heavily involved in the movie's production.

Which is, always was, and always will be fucking retarded for a game that's entirely multiplayer focused. I don't care what bullshit excuse Bungie uses. I never got to do Vault of Glass (and never will) because I never had the right combination of time and friends to make it happen. I don't have the time, patience, or interest to try to endear myself to a bunch of strangers. Fuck Bungie and their "just go make friends" shit. Yeah, I know I'm salty, but God forbid I buy I a multiplayer game and expect to be able to do all the multiplayer content. The game barely had any as it was.
-
Good lord, weapons for multiplayer are microtransactions? How can anyone be okay with this?
-
So this is some of the best DLC I've bought in years but GOOD GOD, Binding of Isaac was already a hard game and then they had to go and make it even harder! Have mercy, Edmund! I'm just a mortal man!
-
What exactly is the enhanced edition of System Shock? I tried to play the original version once that I got when it, uh, fell off the back of a truck, but it was just TOO old school and cumbersome, even for me.
-
When you put it like that it actually does sound kind of kickass.
-
I hope Far Cry Primal doesn't have too many radio towers. "But it's a caveman game!" Oh, they'll find a way.
-
The reason I'm cynical is because I only see these things getting worse. They may not bother you much now but are you so sure they won't become a major problem five or ten years down the line? Hell, it's even happening right now. The Phantom Pain microtransactions weren't such a big deal...until they patched the game so that anyone who ISN'T playing online loses a huge chunk of GMP each time they start the game. Oh, and they just so happened to start offering paid FOB insurance around the same time. You can't possibly tell me that these two things aren't connected. Cut content? Just compare EA's Battlefront to Battlefront II. The released game won't even have half as much content as the previous game, but they're trying to get you to pay up to 120 dollars for it. It's disgusting. Also, while I haven't played it myself, I'm hearing talk that Halo 5's multiplayer options have been completely neutered compared to Halo 2. I'm hearing that they took out the popular Infection mode. Hell, I hear you can't even create it with custom rules like how it originally started. I don't know for sure yet if that's true or not, but at this point I wouldn't be surprised. I probably have more to add on this but I'm about to leave for work. Basically, the point I'm making is that I am not as optimistic as you are about these things.

I'm trying to beat Crypt of the Necrodancer to get it out of my backlog and holy crap, zone 3 is just kicking my ass. Has anyone here actually beat the whole game? Are there any tips to better prepare for zone 3 or get through it more easily? The difficulty spike is just so immense that I feel like I must be overlooking something.
-
If anything, I'd say it's doomed to a future of microtransactions, cut content, half-assed ports, and season passes that fail to deliver, but that's an entirely different kind of doom we're talking about here. The industry is not about to go bankrupt. It is, however, getting progressively shittier the further we go into this generation.
-
A friend of mine told me that Digital Foundry looked into it and found that Rocksteady has not changed anything about the game since the September patch other than adding all the new DLC. Fucking disgusting.
-
There are some Killzone 2 level shenanigans going on in that launch trailer. Seriously, that slice is so vertical that it's going all the way into space.
-
Yup.
-
Holy shit it's even WORSE than we all feared.
-
What was up with that Fighting Irish Vault Boy at the end? What could that mean?
