Anthem (PS4,X1,PC)

How did you get that?

Dropped during a mission I was playing with 3 randoms. Pretty sure it was a mission for one of the faction story lines. Might have been a contract though. I’ve been playing on hard for a few nights. Drops seem to be better.

I have 2 masterworks of the same gun. Don't really care for it either. Maybe my expectation of what masterwork and legendary weapons was too high for what it would be. They don't do a lot of damage, so therefore they not better then all the guns I already have. The only thing different about it is it shoots very fast and have a bright as hell muzzle flash. My storm have one and my Ranger have the other. Got mine in free roam.

The inscriptions on them seem to be much better.

Re: Anthem (PS4,X1,PC)

This issue with damage numbers not meaning anything and also that a level 1 gun you start with being the best weapon in the game is troubling. Has killed the very last bit of interest I had in this game. This game needs a rework and needs more time in development (strangely 6 years wasn’t enough).

The level 1 gun thing is a bug they are fixing this patch. Just don’t use it. I didn’t even know about it until I just watched that dev video tonight.

I can't think of a multi-player game that's come out in the past 5 years that hasn't been littered with initial problems. Especially a first time IP. They eventually get staightened out, but the games get patched as we have them, it's just the current state of affairs.

Again I hear your point but just because it is the standard in gaming doesn't mean we as the consumers that pay for these rushed out, 3/4 finished games ,have to accept it. It is what it is be we deserve better.

Re: Anthem (PS4,X1,PC)

A game like this can not launch finished. It’s impossible. They need to add content and patch things and when they do unfortunately things can be negatively impacted. If the game is fun they will maintain a player base through that and other people will come back. It happened with the division and it will most likely happen here.


If your post was about Spider-Man or tomb raider or something I could see where you are coming from. These games are different animals though.

I get it, and I agree with these games being a different animal but how does any game that is based on grinding to get the best weapons and loot ship with a bug like the level one weapon bug? Yes they will patch it, 3 weeks after launch. I am not against this game at all because I will buy it at some point, just have an issue with the companies putting stuff out with bugs that they say they didn't know about.

Re: Anthem (PS4,X1,PC)

Well the Escape the Fortress of Dawn mission is pretty bugged. Playing it this morning and it’s never ending. I guess it’s happening randomly across different platforms and I can’t complete it. Wasted almost an hour this morning and gave up. Not sure if I want to try this again until I know it’s fixed but it’s a main story mission. One guy suggests a quick play matchup can cause this if someone joins through that route. Really annoying.

Was the gun bug even there at launch? I think it was a result of the last update. It’s just a bug that’s easily avoidable. I’ve put 40 hours in and didn’t even know about it until last night. I don’t see how it’s a big deal at all. I guess it’s a bigger deal to people who haven’t played yet.

This happened to me. It was just endless waves. I restarted and did the mission again. It progresses really fast and tells you to go to the next area like 2 minutes in if it’s working correctly. I fought those endless waves for like 20 minutes though lol. You’ll know really quick if the mission is bugged or not.

Re: Anthem (PS4,X1,PC)

I have gotten lucky with drops. My main Storm build is a Mastwerwork 492 power. I have all mw components now.

I have three storm builds going, each with different primers and detonators. I use legendary whirlwind sniper. For my 492 build I have legendary frost shards as primer, and then the legendary lightning strike as detonator. I have a mw gun that gives me 30% speed for frost shards so I really never have to let go of the R1 button until the enemy freezes, then hit'em with the lightning strike.

While I do think the loot drop needs buffed, I have gotten legendary stuff. Hoping taking out the white and green loot this next patch will help.

Re: Anthem (PS4,X1,PC)

My personal opinion is that EA should have delayed Anthem until Fall 2020 and let it be a launch title for next gen consoles. It would have virtually no competition, all the issues would be (or at least should be) non-existent and the game would have looked even better than it does. EA should have looked at the game in the long term as opposed to short term.

Also, it seems like EA cancelled their E3 2019 showcase which while not being a huge fan of EA whatsoever, I want to see Respawn's Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order game especially now that Chris Avellone is on board. Thankfully, it's supposed to be shown at the Star Wars fan event in April if I remember correctly.
