No, because we knew that our partnership with PlayStation was going to continue from last year so we knew that one of the incentives was going to be that 30 day exclusive. So we had planned from the beginning and it's also one of the reasons why we made the decision to have more partners involved with it, because we just wanted to make sure it was rock-solid.
Bundle up for a journey to Ecopoint: Antarctica, the former Overwatch installation where climatologist Mei-Ling Zhou was once stationed. While researching severe weather anomalies in the region, the station was hit by an intense polar storm. Running out of options and low on supplies, the team decided to cryogenically freeze themselves until the storm passed. They believed that it would only be for a few months, but Mei awoke nearly a decade la
With Diablo 2 having been released all the way back in 2000, action RPG fans had been waiting for Diablo 3 with feverish excitement. So it was of little surprise that when the game released in 2012, it set a new record for the fastest selling PC game ever, with over 3.5 million copies sold in 24 hours. It was just a shame that only a small number could actually play
Skyrim - As a fan of fantasy set role playing games, Skyrim has to be one of the games I've been looking forward to since its original announcement. I'm looking forward to letting my mood take me where I want to play the game and see what kinds of surprises Bethesda has in store for people who are willing to ignore the campaign and really explore the world. Yes, I have plans to make a two-handed warrior who dabbles in the smallest bit of ma
If you haven't seen some of Overwatch 's excellent cinematic shorts, you're missing out on some significant backstory. In " Alive ", Tracer takes on Talon sniper Widowmaker (real name Amélie Lacroix) and tries to prevent her from assassinating a prominent religious leader. After a furious fight on the rooftops of King's Row, Widowmaker makes the shot and kills holy robot Tekhartha Mondatta. Tracer demands the reason why, but Lacroix only offers a chuckle in reply. The pair fight again and poor Lena is left winded in an alley with her chronal accelerator on the fr
So I'm going to show my colors here. I am PC MR for sure. That's where I got my start in gaming. There is no way in the world I would the PC version of the game ship if it was poor. It plays amazingly, I love it. When we do our play test I do play with a controller, but I get owned so bad. But it's so satisfying trying to play PC for our play test and come out with a two to three KD and I'm like 'there bches. Don't give me any more sht. I'm okay!' Cause I'm not a console FPS game Ranking tips guy I just can't move my thumbs and fingers and hands the other people can. I'm amazed that people can do it, but you get me on a mouse and keyboard I'm going to wreck some sht up. So yeah it's really good. It's great. The frame rate is fantastic. Now I also have a killer rig, so I'm not playing on the lowest common denominator for sure, but I am really enjoying it. So for someone who comes from that background I think that anyone who plays this on PC is going to be really happy.
The biggest concern was probably the ADSing because you have a fair argument to say that the static image that you pop up is iconic. I think that there's something to be said about that. I think that what won out in the end was that the gameplay had not changed in any kind of significant way with any of the improvements and the new animations. So when we had done our user testing and play testing, and this is play testing across most of Activision so we had Treyarch, IW, Beenox, we had our whole crew. However many studious are in the business at this point. We had a lot of people in there and these are hardcore people. If it f*cking sucks they will tell you it sucks, and these are the people playing the game and giving us the feedback on it. Universally it was loved and appreciated so we knew after a couple play tests like that and run throughs we're not hearing the negativity that we feared, and it doesn't get more hardcore than hardcore COD makers. We're all playing this pretty regularly. So we felt really confident. That was one of those ones that we were a little worried about and given some of the social media stuff I'm not worried once they get it in their hands, I'm just hoping that they give it the chance that I think that it deserves. I think that they'll be happy with the results.
