    Re: Anthem (PS4,X1,PC)

    To me this game is more like Mass Effect Andromeda combined with Titan Fall. The game is gorgeous looking on Ultra on the PC. So far I am rolling private sessions and making good progress in the game. The public area is highly annoying. Just a bunch of idiots flying back and forth stopping right in front of your face. Like yeah I see you, now get the hell out of my way. Load times are bad. The game also suffers from people and the world popping up right in front of you, like 3 feet in front of you at times. Which is kind of weird.

    The environment remind me of the planet that purple guy was from on Mass Effect Andromeda. Like it is closely resembles it, only they added caves and 6 times more water falls. The enemies are numerous, but easy to kill. The elites and brutes take more effort. As long as you keep moving, it isn't a problem. One thing I don't like is this game freezes every time it loses connection with EA servers. Did it to me twice which highly annoying. Thankfully both times happened outside of missions. I am ranked 4, almost 5.

    Flying is hit or miss. Some times I do very well. Other times go head first into a cliff or head first into the ground. Tons of stuff to collect which is necessary in this game. So if you don't like collecting resources for better weapons and gear, then this game isn't for you. With that said, don't fly all the time. If you do you will pass up a lot of stuff you suppose to be collecting.

        ATVI, TTWO and EA all got hit, losing up to 50% of their value.

        It was mostly from the fortnite effect. EA has since bounced back a bit because of APEX, which people are calling a fortnite killer.

        Fortnite is a juggernaut.

          With the load times are you using a SSD on your PC? The load times aren’t bad on XB1 and from what I’ve read on discord and reddit, seems as though if you have the game in a SSD, the load times aren’t nearly as bad.

            Got to play with friend last night about two hours through a few missions , and I'm digging it so far. The world is beautiful and I like the gunplay actually.

            The enemies respond and get knock down which is pretty cool they don't seem so spongy like other games that have no reaction to shots. And, the explosions and combos can get pretty intense and really make it feel like you're blowing stuff up.

            I'll be on sporadically with a few buddies of mine but only two of us are pretty consistent gamers so there will be times we won't have full four. With that said some of the PC gamers feel free to add me and we can game with anthem (or Apex for that matter when not playing anthem) .

                I have nothing but SSD's in my PC. The load times are bad. I mean it doesn't take minutes or anything, but it isn't fast as it is in other games.

                  Played about 3 hours of me EA Access trial. No issues or crashes which is awesome.
                  Pretty fun. I’d almost rather play solo than with randoms. I’m sure playing with people you would know is fun but I don’t see any need for Coordination so far.

                    I’m having fun with the EA access trial. Only thing that sucks is I blow through all the dialogue since I don’t want to waste trial time reading stuff. I’m guessing it doesn’t matter much.

                    Does the trial stop progression eventually or do we get access to the whole story line?

                      I blew through it as well but because I will play the game on my PS4 Pro, but I’ve read in many places that the conversations are on the level of old school BioWare.

                        Level 8, just unlocked my second javelin. I was rolling with a colossus. Going to try out the Storm now. Did 3 world events so far. Got to do some more. I see people are level 18 already.

                          So yeah the Storm is AWESOME. After a certain point you have no choice but to do public missions. The amount of enemy thrown at you at once is just way too much for one person to fight. Downside is public missions can be buggy at times. Went to 3 of them. No mission prompts or anything. It was like I was in free roam. Mission didn't even load. Next 6 times, the put me in missions that I already did before. 10th attempt, they actually put me in the correct mission and the mission actually loaded with mission prompts.

                          Now comes the grind of doing side quests and finding world events for I can continue with the main story. Not a fan of story missions being locked behind a we going to force you to do a lot of stuff you don't want to do wall. The story was flowing quite well, then bam, the wall of a ton of requirements hits you.

                            pleasantly surprised by this game. Something about the demo turned me off, but trying it out with premier access and so far so good.

                              I think a storm is mandatory in each squad lol. The combos that it provides are invaluable.

                                Don't worry, damn near everybody online plays with a Storm. I can't blame them though, it is truly is the best Javelin there is.
