    They are already are, aside from the lvl1 Defender. And the Defender itself doesn't do more dmg than the MW weapon, it just nerfs HP scaling somehow.

    That list is somehow bad? Yea, its disappointing that they are not starting the Act 1 rollout til the END of March, rather within March like everyone thought, and they didn't seem to sure about that. What was the doubling down on loot? They are removing white/greens, and are looking to make GM2...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    As far as I can tell from testing this, its a bug with that specific gun (lvl1 Defender) scaling the HP of mobs down regardless of difficulty. Ran Gm1 freeplay with Defender + MW gear + Epic components (307), easy mode. Replaced Defender with a MW Defender, back to normal. Ran with MW Defender +...

    Are they defending it, or just trying to clarify the difference between bricking and crashing?

    Path of Exile

    Synth maps seem like a new Delve type subgame, which I'll love. Have no idea at all what to build to use, maybe holy fire totem? Arc got a nerf, but will the chaining range nerf be that bad?

    Watching: Seems alright so far (the game).

    I believe "rebuilding the database" doesn't wipe the console clean, lol.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    I have a feeling that if Anthem was the cause of a PS4/PS4 Pro bricking, Sony would remove the title from its platform until the issue was addressed. Since Anthem is still available, I highly doubt Anthem has caused any console to brick. Fake news. That said, it is clear Anthem is causing PS4's...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Have you really spent that much time in Freeplay? It honestly doesn't sound like you have, since from my experience the zone is kinda small. Flying around in a 4-man group feels just about right, with events popping at a decent pace as you move. Even going in solo is alright, but of course you...

    How could that get past Sony certification? Sounds like something both BioWare and Sony missed.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Part of this problem is that people think their Gear Score matters in terms of ability / performance. Like my 494 build is complete trash compared to a focused 461 build. So some people think they are prepared for Gm1 or higher just because of a gear score, when in reality they are not. Content...

    The Division 2

    I like most everything about D2, but I won't play it for the simple reason I dislike the duck&cover mechanic of combat vs. the run&gun of Destiny / Anthem. Maybe that will change sometime in the future, but right now its just not a fun playstyle for me.

    Lots of people, it is a known bug with the Frostbite engine that hasn't been solved for years. Best you can do is adjust your audio settings to 24bit/44khz or 16bit/44khz.

    I get it, and I agree that the game is messy. I am also sure Gladd is just milking the drama for $$ on youtube, if he wants the account back he'll get it back.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Funny thing. No one was doing the boss exploit when you had a 3sec timer til the game locked you into the kill. This only started happening when the dev's lengthened the lock timer to 10... at the request of the playerbase. Gladd and Streamerhouse got what they deserved for abusing an unintended...

    BDO becomes casual later on, the content at release for Xbox is tiny compared to what it will have, so if you really like open world pvp this is the time to get into BDO.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Just you probably. Make a harvest set, set the diff to Normal, spawn into Freeplay right outside Tarsis and go left or right along the zone wall to make a loop. Was and still is pretty populated with events (aside from yesterday when Freeplay was broken for a few hours).

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Apparently BioWare will be posting a perk/stat guide next week listing all the effects. It didn't sound like it would be an ingame stat page/description type thing, just a news type post somewhere.

    Acid is Physical dmg. Also, if a weapon has an elemental proc, they are separate dmg sources. So physical/impact would buff the bullets, and any +elemental effect would buff the elemental proc. Divine Vengeance is so good because you can buff phys/impact, blast (explosion) and fire. Tested...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Every gun in the game needs a base reduction in reload times. I got a legendary shotgun "Rolling Carnage", nice perks, and its bonus increases dmg by 50% when you Dash (stacks 3x). I thought it would be great for my Ranger, since run & gun is my playstyle. Started using it and the just sucks. It...

    No difference. I've gotten the same amount of materials / embers at all levels of difficulty (Easy through GM1).
  26. Zindan

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Not sure about the others, but Harvest has a tiered result for the amount of Embers you get: 0-99 = 1 100-149 = 2 150-249 = 3 250-350 = 4 +1 per Elemental Rage AR you have equipped (bug). Also it seems that inscription caps are increased with rarity. I've not seen Luck higher than 35% on...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Its not just Hard difficulty, you'll get the same stuff on Easy and Normal as well. It is in GM1+ where the entire loot table opens up.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    The Dev who was giving us all that info about Luck updated his information. All players start with 100 Luck, so all you need to get on gear is 90 to be at the highest threshold.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Good first step. With this change we'll be able to see if drop rates themselves need a boost (probably).

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    There are times when you disconnect during Freeplay and when you do the reconnect / exit Freeplay thing you won't see what you had. If this happens, go to your Forge and the items should be in there (epic+). Ran 6 contracts at 192 Luck; 1 Legendary, 1 MW. One contract dropped a total of FOUR...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Yea, I'm about to go have ppl unknowingly carry me through some Gm1 contracts while rocking 192 Luck (461 ilvl). Build isn't that bad though, tbh. Using best weapons, 3rd best launcher/grenade setup and general components that buff all the other stuff (except no buffs to Blst, sadly).

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    I'm only expecting some information on when the inscription fixes will go live, and their thoughts on loot drops overall going forward. I am sure the post by Travis Day kinda forced them to rethink their plan.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    I was getting a lot of disconnects on official launch day, and started running trace routes to see what was going on. At that time there were two Amazon nodes that were taking a shit before my packets hit their ddos protection. Not sure how PS4/Xbox handle connectivity to Anthem servers.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    No unique models as of yet for the legendary guns, and all the legendary items are just ilvl upgrades (though that 2 ilvl scales up the dmg by a good chunk). I've gotten 3 legendary guns now: Avenging Herald (sucks for my playstyle as ranger), Rolling Carnage (a pretty badass shotgun where...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    The stupid staggered release is probably why they've cycled through the same cosmetics twice now to give Xbox/Ps4 and non Premier subs the chance to get those items. If the same shit appears at next cycle, yea, lame. They have quite a few more cosmetics ready to go already if you find some alpha...

    They don't have individual accounts? Not sure if all the streamers there were doing what the current guy was doing.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Oh god, classic. Streamerhouse and friends were exploiting a bug that allowed them to reset the final boss of a SH, to just fight the boss and get loot, got perma banned. Now they are whining that they weren't doing anything wrong! They were just doing what they could do in Borderlands! lol.

    While you are correct that a games intro hours should give you a feel for whether or not you'll like the gameplay, the article posted recently was apparently written by someone who failed to understand what was being presented to them, like any 8yr could. Just simple gameplay aspects that are...
