Afternoon session I got right in no waiting, so they fixed whatever the problem was. Playing the game is a TON different than watching someone else play it. Definitely feels more like Mass Effect than it does Destiny.
![]() Not breaking the NDA when I say WOW it's super fun and the mission I played was off the chain. Last edited by Imon Yourside; 12-08-2018 at 03:54 PM.. |

Definitely not Destiny. I can't even come up with a similar game.
It's hard to tell without knowing how much deeper the final game is than the alpha build, but if the first couple of missions are any indication, meaning if there's a lot more than that and the sum total is not just a handful of missions (again, like Destiny...) it could be great. Freeplay is a little dead right now, I think, but there's nothing really to aim for, since there's no access to crafting or blueprints or inventory in this build. Although it's still kind of fun to explore and fight random outlaws and scars. |

I believe it does run Frostbite 3.0 and the combat is somewhat similiar to Andromeda multiplayer but better cuz u can fly and smack the ground. It's really fun the flying is kinda like Flightsim flying. The controls honestly take a little bit to get used to, you will start by crashing into stuff and grounding yourself quite a bit BUT as you get better at it you will gain MORE control over what you're doing and do some really killer combos. It's like your piloting an IRONMAN suit, I would almost call it Ironman simulator instead of Anthem. ![]() If Ironman and Avatar had a baby it would be called the Anthem. Hope i'm not breaking the NDA, i'm not familiar with doing alpha builds. Last edited by Imon Yourside; 12-08-2018 at 06:32 PM.. |

Might still be live. I was up pretty late EST playing last night. I only played Destiny for about a month, didn't hate it as much as most. I played Mass Effect 1-3 and loved them, never played the latest one. To me, the controls and combat felt really good on my XB1 elite controller. Time will tell. I have premiere as well, so we get a special invite beta in january I believe, or is it just open like 2 weeks early?

Really hope the loot game is good in this...one of the biggest disappointments for Destiny for me, probably the biggest draw for me when it comes to games like this.
Seeing as this has no PvP component, I'm hoping there's a ton of weapons/armor/etc...I'm sure there is and I'm confident they'll be constantly adding to the game. |

Can't tell you how many times I'd get the same armor piece throughout. ![]() That and never understood the concept of allowing 1 Exotic weapon or armor piece...I mean if you earn the gear, you should be able to use it...at least that's my thought. Hoping Anthem fixes a lot of this. |

I've heard some say Anthems loot will be more like a Diablo 3 style system. If it's half of that It will be the best thing out in the last several years. Throw in the same guy that wrote the story for Mass Effect 1 and 2 and we could have something truly remarkable. |

primer/detonators like Mass Effect
5 different gun/component slots 6 Different rarity types common, uncommon, rare, epic, masterwork and legendary uncommon and up get 1-4 inscription rolls which pick from a pool of over 100 different stats inscriptions stack infinitely and support roles can matter Masterworks and up get an extra powerful stat ie killing an enemy causes an electric explosion etc Very Large item carry limit/storage limit Salvaging gives crafting tools Find blueprints to craft items up to legendary and bp's will drop at your overall power lvl Can't reroll properties on items Legendary items will all reroll with different stats other than its prmary stat for that weapon. Bosses will drop from much higher loot tables, seems you can find anything anywhere with better chances at higher difficulties. ![]() Challenges like take out x boss 10 times will grant you a high level reward ie leg blueprint etc Loot is instanced for each person but no trading. Loadouts matter you can gear towards taking out trash mobs or more towards boss damage. Last edited by Imon Yourside; 12-13-2018 at 03:41 PM.. |
