Yeah I'm not sure why devs still do that.

TBF, when it comes to bad decisions they've been on a roll of late.

Yeah I'm not sure why devs still do that. It's certainly the shittest way to deal with co-op play and progress. |

It’s 30fps at 4K?
So why can they *at the very least* drop the resolution and bang out a version at 60? It’s more poor performing Bethesda shite, the fact they’re now owned by Microsoft and launching it exclusively on their “own” console now is doubly embarrassing.
Xbox this gen has been good, maybe verging on great… but only because you can play everyone else’s games on the damn thing.
Mines been gathering dust for six months now.

The co-op progress thing is proper balls, and shockingly pretty much the norm for a lot of open world co-op games as well. Have had the same problem (stats save but progress doesn't) with Far Cry 5, Dying Light 2 and plenty of others over recent years, I'm amazed it's still a thing.

To flip that: is there a game where progress is shared across the party and everyone isnt just a guest in someone elses campaign? I cant actually think of one.

Halo Infinite.
Fairly resound shit show other than that feature, mind.
Edit, and of course anything server based: Destiny, Avengers, etc, etc.

DF speculated that it was more due to that game isn't finished because when Devs use ue4 they do an optimisation pass using some specific program to get it to 60fps, so essentially MS are releasing something that isn't finished in the most basic way. Again. |

I really hope this isn’t their game plan because it’s “just” going in to GP - almost everyone will play it “for free” so bang anything up in there to fill the library and deal with it later.
Because CoD will keep sub numbers up regardless.

This has 7 written all over it, by virtue of it being a Gamepass game it may get a fair few eyes as it's first party content but I don't think it will sell well and I don't think many will come back to it depending on when they release the 60fps patch. Never thought I'd say that about an Arkane game. I personally think Microsoft need to change tack a bit and actually crack the whip at some of the studios they bought.

Other than the standard ‘20s “literally unplayable” 30fps whining, I don’t quite get why everyone is so down on this. I think it looks pretty cool.

I think there are legitimate reasons for the "whining" because well first person shooters don't feel great at 30fps, for a 1st party game it's not a great look especially for a game made for the "most powerful console"as well as a console with an absolute dearth of content. A lot of this also hints at the game being released unfinished and most importantly you don't associate this kind of game with Arkane. I can definitely see why people are down on it.

The Switch is dropping it's 5th exclusive 1st party title of this year in 2 weeks  |

Yeah, I think the Switch has had more 1st party titles than the Xbox at this point in the year. So my point stands of there being a dearth of content.

Hi-Fi Rush
Ghostwire Tokyo (updated version)
Age of empires II
Minecraft Legends
Redfall next week.
But only 2 of those are console exclusive and 1 released last year on PS5.
But MS have already released more first party games than they did in 2022.

Shame it's coming out after the bank holiday. Anyone picking up the add on pack? £30 seems a bit steep for (eventually) two new characters and some new outfits.

Something came 'free' with the Game Pass install. Not sure if that's what it was, or not.
