Was the reviewer just a bad player? You know, like a Storm that doesn't hover during combat? Faulting Anthem for supposedly failing to fully utilize flying is somewhat justified, but the gameplay does allow you to fly around as you like in combat and for missions. Not setting the game up to...

They need to fix the useless perk rolls before adjusting loot drops, make what we get more important than giving us even more useless shit. I'm more depressed at how awful my crafting RNG is while trying to make a Harvest set.

Same here. I've yet to see a single item drop for my Ranger that had +Blast dmg, nor have I been able to craft a single Universal component that has Blast dmg. Best I've seen, and I'm not sure its as good as pure Blast, are items with +Dmg to Q or E. To take down shields as a Ranger, you need...

Do people realize that the drop rate as it is right now is the exact same drop rate one day before their mistake? I didn't see nearly as much whining about that back then as now. Instead of increasing drop rates back to that mistake, I'd rather see them fix the useless perks issue first...

Noticed tonight while I bit the bullet to finish the 25 Quickplay runs for Valor, that if you run on Normal you won't encounter dead instances nearly as much on other difficulties. Had to make 9 more runs, only 1 was bugged.

But... but... according to these reviewers this is an example of lazy mission design!

Were you gifted some coin right after the tutorial? Most if not all the Premier members got a sizable chunk of Coin, I got 160k which I've spent. I think I've made around 120-130k coin in my 90-ish hours.

No, if he spent 60hrs farming Tyrant Mine and is complaining about only earning 93k, then yes, he is playing poorly. The cost of MW ember in that show is truly dumb, no argument there. If it were like 500-1000? Good. You can also, if you're willing to do so, craft a set of components that have...

Those of you saying drops were reduced, what Luck are you running? Drops in Freeplay feel the same to me, drops in GM1 Contracts seem as bad as normal, while drops in Legendary GM1 Contracts seem less. I'm starting to think that doing good dmg in GM1+ is too reliant on getting nice perks, at...

I linked to a post on Reddit where ppl were listing their origin names to accept friend invites to stack up Alliance coin.

Yea, I got a Legendary marksman rifle (its perk lowers recoil per hit) with +250% phys dmg. Rolls like that is the only way to make gun dmg relevant in GM1+, wish I had that on an AR or machine pistol.

Quick question about the Origin App. There are times when I see people on my friends list have an icon that says "Join Game".. how do you set that up?

Here is a link to a post with a lot of information about stuff that isn't explicity stated ingame.

You can solo all Story missions, all side missions, all Contracts and Freeplay (there will be 3 other ppl roaming the Freeplay map, but not grouped with you). You are forced to get into a matchmaking group for Stronholds. So yes, you can play Anthem exactly like you play the other games. It...

The only items ever seen disappear were the Legion of Dawn legendary items, and that was only when entering the Launch Bay. Did you perhaps salvage it by mistake?

Its fine if you get a 4 player group so the freeplay zone is all yours, if you go in solo its difficult to find these Titans and world events in general since the other people or group is clearing them. Sucks. Wish they would enable a few of those Shaper tubes to send you to each of the Freeplay...

A more detailed list, yes. Not sure why it didn't work. Anthem - Acts and Updates - EA Official Site

Yea, I haven't been able to stay connected this afternoon for more than 20min. Sucks. In other news, prepare for a new round of outrage now that the 90 Day Roadmap is out showing no new Stronghold til April and no Cataclysm til May. People going to salty, lol. 90 Day Roadmap

Get into game, go into Freeplay, exit Freeplay, all items appear magically.

ToG is great, but sadly there are some long stretches which are kinda dull, but keep going to see how epic it is currently. Its on break atm til sometime in March when the next arc starts up, can't wait. You might try out on called "UnOrdinary", its pretty good for a powered up teen drama.

The Freeplay zone feels a lot better when you're actually in a full group. I hope that someday they allow you pick which type of matchmaking you want for Freeplay; "solo open world" or "matchmake into group".

Siege Breaker is pretty nice, full auto sniper that will proc a freeze on the enemy (and it appears to be small aoe). Pretty good on targets that will love through 3 shots, since you can then detonate them if you have a skill ready.

I have disagree, while the speed increase is noticeable, it is just barely so Yea, a bit sad, there is one mission where after you clear it you are zoned into a Strider bay that has your Javelin and a Forge access, along with a "door" to take you Tarsis. I think they wanted to make Tarsis into...

No, in too many cases the game is judge as a shit game because of how it didn't live up to the reviewers love for the old BioWare (tech issues aside), remove that bias and you find a game which nailed the "looter" aspect and is also a fun "shooter". Technically the game is flawed, everyone here...

I've had a similar thought about how the game feels like various pieces patched together. The game in Tarsis is in no way similar or as good as the game outside Tarsis.

Its just a symptom of the bandwagon effect and another review where the reviewer has a boner for the old BioWare, so they have to express their disappoint in some outrageous way.

I get that, and I think its a very "Oh this will turn it around for BioWare" type sentiment, just take the game as it is and not judge it based on its comparison to previous games made so long ago by a studio with the same name (but obviously lesser ability). When developing a game I am sure its...

Here is a good subreddit post to browse for Alliance friends so you can soak up some Coin at the end of the week: Alliance Pool

Ok, but the missions in D2 are no different than what you see in Anthem; its all kill this or fetch that, with some jumping puzzles (which are nice), get X type of kills, get X kills with X weapon, etc. Yep, strongholds are anemic, but the Freeplay zone is pretty nice, but as you say, its really...

Curious here, but to those who have played Anthem to lvl30 and started the grind, if you find the missions to be boring, or not diverse enough, what type of missions would you want to repeat over and over? I'm not talking about Strongholds, or even the main Story missions, but stuff like the...

Heart of Rage boss is the most interesting encounter in that the boss does a lot you need to watch out for, the other two are pretty lame (at all difficulty levels). If they could spice up the encounters as you increase the difficulty it would go a long way towards making the strongholds feel...

You can get MW items before lvl30 (I got my first at 26), but they won't be max ilevel, so don't stress much about it. Once you're lvl30 I'd suggest farming the hell out of a stronghold on Easy until you get 2 of the Avenging Herald pistol, their special perk stacks, so you'll be doing +400%...

Any Javelin can do that, some easier than others (Storm / Colo), you just need to take advantage of the combo system. When find the skill set that feels good to play, try focus on getting perks that buff those ability types. You can solo your way through the Story and then Freeplay / Contracts...

Hm, if you get nearly full MW components, with the right perks for your build, you can solo GM1 and could probably solo Gm2 if you're patient. Ran my 3 daily legendary contracts: 1-3-1 MW's.

Yea, loot has been changed I think. Running GM1+ strongholds nets you 1MW for each chest 100%. Normal GM1+ contracts are still a RNG thing, while the Legendary GM1+ contracts seem to be way better than they were. Prior to patch it was really rare to get a MW in either version of contracts at...

You got lucky with the GM1 Contract dropping / rewarding a Masterwork, they do not guarantee them even now. If you did the Legendary daily contract(s), then yes, they will give you at least 1 MW as a reward. I've done six normal contracts at Gm1, and had no MW drops/rewards. They will have a...

The free legendary items you get (weapons at least, and if I recall the Gear) will disappear if you load into the Launch Bay, they should still be around if you use the Forge inside Tarsis itself.

Not sure anyone is defending the load times or the number of loading screens, at best they (me included) that load times on SSD aren't bad. That vid is dumb, at the start he says "Oh hey, they patched the stuff I'm mainly going to rant about such that they are not as big of (load times), or not...

Well, the first is just hype, and if people set their expectations on how a studio hypes up their game, you deserve to be disappointed... every time. Having you in particular bring up that point is kinda funny since you're well aware of shallow hype is, lol. Not defending any studio from trying...

Good time to start the loot grind, I think. I just did 3 legendary contracts and got: 1 legendary, 9 masterworks (3 of those being components) on GM1. Yesterday I thought I was lucky to get 3 masterworks in total. Loading times seem about the same, buuuut so far all team members have loaded in...
