Maybe the reason I don't get these issues is because the file isn't on SD. Maybe it is because I only played handheld... But it's weird that not everyone has the problems...
I think he is a little... Dramatic. I doubt it is anywhere near as good as Octopath Traveler. Such few games on the Switch could ever assert such an idea. That doesn't mean that it's a bad game.
I enjoyed the game, but haven't played the Switch version. I think maybe they should have done more themselves to advertise the game, as it hasn't been advertised well for any platform.
If that were true then more of the industry would use IdTech... Instead they use Havok, Their own (Frostbite/SnowDrop), Unity or Unreal?
All joking aside, Epic aren't used to being this big. They are learning as they go. This is all new territory for the industry... A live service game on a console that is both a home console and handheld? They are trying. People need to be patient.
Same here! I have 120 hours plus! Not one of these. The only one is lag on 50v50 is you are all in and loads of people are using explosive weapons or anything that has an AoE.
But why are we not having them? The bouncing one is new to me... So it the chat thing... Is this because I only play in handheld? The only problem I have is not mentioned here. Sometimes when loading into the menu its all black, apart from the daily challenges and level/tier information on the left. I have to tab along and back. I sometimes get the same on the login part. The background doesn't load.
I hear that. I am used to PC which limits the size of screen when using a proper display. It's about a lot more as well. A TV has poor latency, is terrible with colours and has a restricted framerate. I love that PS fanboys think the PS4 does true 4k at 60fps without the need of a displayport. Ahahaha.
Ark is considered in the PC community as a poorly optimised game.
And that graphics aren't everything. That is why games like Undertale and Shovel Knight command more respect than Ark. Ark failed somewhat at what it tried to be. The game is... Meh.
Yes, the power is limited. Guess what?! That's what you get with a portable system. Saying it lacks power is like me saying the PlayStation lacks portability and a touchscreen.
1) it broke the rules. Doesn't matter if you agree with them. I don't agree that Weebs that get caught with pictures and videos of cartoons depicting child abuse get let off so lightly. But I respect the law even if I dont agree with it. That is something civilised people do. A famous philosopher was sentenced to death, and his friends tried to free him... He refused. Saying law is law.
2) YouTube monitors this because Japan is one of those countries that allows child porn. Whilst that happens it means all live streams from that area are monitored.
3) Guns aren't the same as pornography, implied paedophilia and the like. Even in the UK you can own a gun, and use it for sport, hunting or work. Child pornography has no use.
But at least there is a list of names here. A list of people that justify any sordid act committed by the Japanese.
The big difference is Splatoon started production a long time ago and used motion controls from the start. It wasn't released on any other platform before needing converting. Add that to it being a big budget AAA game released for full retail price.
Fortnite is Epic's first FPS to use motion controls (not Nintendo's... ) And are doing so for motion controls designed by another company (Splatoon has the luxury of being made by the same company that makes the platform and the motion controls) and on a game that was created for a different platform. It has been out a matter of weeks, and isn't finished. It is a "live" service.
To cast shade this early on is a joke. And a little bit silly. By that standard we should judge children harshly "what do you mean you cannot use calculus and differentiation to find the optimal cuts to make the biggest box! You're 8! A 24 year old degree level engineer could! Your first attempt was rubbish!"
Instead people should be thankful they are trying, as I personally wouldn't. I find the idea of using motion controls as a gimmick and in solo game, it's fine. But in a team player based game (squads) an idiot with motion controls can let the team down. And then there is this idea that it's better... It really isn't. It's like analogue sticks... They are great and all... But the top Street Fighter/MK/etc players still use D pads or fight sticks. Not analogue thumbsticks.
I think it is great for people with disabilities. And needed. But for every day use? I think it is a gimmick and there is a reason that Sony, MS and the PC market havent brought in motion for online FPS.
The irony is that if you wanted to be at your best you'd call for Ninty to release a keyboard and mouse. And don't say about handheld, because using motion in handheld mode is just dumb if you live anywhere with sunlight.
You do know that Nintendo make neither of those, nor this? You do realise Nintendo cannot force Devs and publishers? Plus... Tekken is a pile of rubbish and Soul Blade is stuck in the early 2000s with questionable character design. It was okay 18 years ago... But now.
But way to show ignorance. Pokémon is for the likes of you: idiots that know no better.
But why get Tekken and Soul Blade when Smash and Street Fighter are on the Switch... Shouldn't their priority be in supporting those games?
All we need now is a special remaster of Final Fantasy 7 and 9 for the switch and then it will be my primary game machine along with PC... If only it could handle Quake Champions...
They are only 3D renders... So I will not hold my breath for them as it seems a little too kickscammer for me. The charger is very important. A lot of people with heat-related damage have gotten it from using the wrong charger - using the chargers from their phones. Most of which will not even charge. Some turbo chargers though can damage the battery as in terms people can understand: the battery is charging too quick and so the inside is heating up beyond safety limits. Anyone that vapes knows this. I use mechanical mods and thus have to know ohm's law. This is because the resistance of the coil a person should build is in relation to the amp of the battery. Not the voltage. If you get it wrong and draw too much ampage, the battery will heat up. The same goes in reverse. Fill a battery with an ampage too high and it heats up, and can vent.
I've seen in certain shops in the UK (shall we say those ones that sell things like BB guns, stuff for stoners and all seem to sell foreign mountain dew) and some won't charge... Others were dangerous. One packaged saying it was for switch, said on the box it was 12v at 10A...
You are so right. Let's go back to the PlayStation days with no remakes or sequels... Ahem... Pitfall, pacman, bomberman, final fantasy, mortal Kombat... And on the 16 bit systems there certainly wasn't games such as final fantasy 6... Or a ton of Street Fighter games... Ahem... Or R Type... Or Alien Breed... And it's not as though there were a million versions of Mario or Sonic.
But you are right. Reboots do suck. Look at Doom and Tomb Raider. Destiny and No Man's Sky were so much better. And who the hell liked Metal Gear Solid... They shouldnt have continued the series. Same as Final Fantasy and Tekken. They should have left it at one. And resident evil.. well it should have ended with 2... Or at least ended before they removed the amazing tank controls. I mean RE: Biohazard is such an ugly, badly designed game. It shows such a lack of creativity to create something fresh whilst confined to a brief. It doesn't show amazing skill. We all know that it is harder to build a house when you can build anywhere. It is easier when you are forced to fit a certain plot.
I loved your comment. It made my night. I totally agree with you that sequels are lazy and that games like Witcher 3, GTA 5, Resident Evil 6, Mario Odyssey, BOTW, Farcry 5 and Final Fantasy 15 are all terrible. LOL.
I agree!!! When you look at Fortnite and PUBG they are identical!!! :/ Same as Street Fighter and Soul Blade... And it annoys me how Borderlands and Left4Dead look the exact same... :/
No, but I do get you. It's like open world adventures. It annoyed me how much BOTW looked like Assassin's Creed Syndicate. And more annoying that Quake Champions looks frame for frame, tri for tri, like Overwatch and Siege. :/
Look, maybe you are new to gaming. But this has always been the same. ALWAYS. There has always been games to jump on a bandwagon. This guy has even made a game himself that does that!!! I mean it's hardly original... Even the name is generic.
But when you mention COD... You mean like WW2 game looking like... Well world war 2... That is like saying all racing Sims look the same... Yes, that is because they are going for realism...
I think you need to consider the logic here. Battlefield and COD will share many similarities because they are trying to recreate real life... But to say they are all the same is ... Well... Dumb. Look at fighting games. Injustice is different in look to street fighter which looks different to Soul Calibre which all look different to Smash.
But if we are going down this route, please tell me how a game that is the same as every mech game since the N64 is any different? Like seriously. These games were 10 a penny in arcades 8 years ago. And the art style was especially en vogue.
I say the exact same thing about anime and Japanese games.
Though I agree! Pokémon Let's Go Eevee and Pikachu sure does look like BGE2 and Tetris VR... Ahem.
I know what he means, but he is being a little pretentious and hypocritical. His game isn't exactly groundbreaking, from an artistic perspective. A lot of games look the same because of realism. If you have 10 games that are going for that asthetic they will look slightly similar. As for games that are stylised all looking the same... I think Limbo, Little Nightmares, Cuphead, Child of Light, etc all look very different. Compared to the 32-bit era where everything did look the same... (Rayman, spyro, crash, gex 3D, conkers, etc)
But if we take say... Battle royal. We have PUBG, Fortnite and Realm Royale. 3 games that look different in art style. However the huds will be similar. This is because it's a game and lots of research has been put into UI. This is because it's a science. It's intuitive. On every phone the clock is at the top and the keyboard comes up from the bottom. They all follow a set layout. Same as UI in games. If every game was different, every game would have a steeper learning curve. We expect in a shooting game that one trigger aims down the irons, and the other shoots. We expect whilest driving that one is accelerate and the other is brake. That is how it is.
And yes this does change over time. One game might buck a trend and change the landscape... But it doesn't happen often. And usually that only relates to player feedback, such as being shot in a game. And to give a player as much of the screen as possible, so the UI should be as minimalistic as possible.
That is my belief anyways. And what I got taught. Though I think this dude saying all this is simply to sell his game. To get free press whilst at the same time rubbishing most other games, trying to sound like he is a Messiah or prophet for creativity. He just seems a bit of an idiot.
I really question this as 1 in 5 is really high since I know at least 40 switch owners, including myself, and only one has this problem and when a group of us tried to investigate it, the one with the crack used hers a lot in docked mode and didn't use a hardcase for travel. Yes, I am sure she didn't damage it through neglect. But I am saying that maybe some of these have more common factors other than "it gets hot so it must be the switch at fault and not my treatment of the console!" And I really really don't judge a poll where people will have googled about the crack and come to here, then polled their crack. Nobody was searching "I don't have a crack in my switch" to bring to a website.
This is why polls like this aren't just idiotic, but they are actually dangerous. The poll is pointless and is as relevant as turd sandwich.
As I said... I know a lot of switch owners. And know pretty much every one at my uni. Kinda funny how NONE of us have had this problem. Considering at least 10 of us should have it according to nintylife.
I shall keep going and asking random switch owners.
As for their response: you people had no problems with Sony doing this: and charging extortionate prices for refurbished consoles back in the PS3 days. And if a game was stuck in the optical drive then you lost that game. Nobody has a problem paying £1000 for a phone that costs less than a tenth of that to make, and then they charge similar prices just to replace a screen on a 5 year old iPhone. Wanna know why they are charging this much? It is because idiots payed all the other companies and now have set a culture where to fix tech is a premium cost. And people only seem to have a problem when Nintendo do it.... Funny that...
And may I also say that to fix a cracked case on an iPhone X from Apple costs... £556.44... ahem.... And the screen costs £286.44...
Sony Xperia Z1 from carphone costs... £59.99... cost of replacing screen is... £81.10.
Samsung phones cost over £200 to replace ONE part that can be done easily.
Just like to remind everyone: this is the world you have made.
Let me put it this way, idiot. An adult shop on the high street wont have a massive advert on the outside for a sybian or ohmybod. They instead blackout the images. This is because... Wait for it... Kids are on the street.
Kids can go onto the eshop and if they allow disgusting pervy images then parents will complain and governments will step in. Right now gaming has the joy of policing itself. But with all these idiotic people it won't last. It is already changing because of dumb games like CS:GO and Overwatch.
Personally i find the image and the game repugnant. It appeals to base humans that haven't evolved. It's basically the Love Island of gaming. For trashy people. But because it's a JRPG it's forgiven by the pretentious weeb community that cannot see they are the same as those idiots watching trashy reality shows filled with sex to cover up the fact it's devoid of any creativity.
Don't even get me started on the hypocrisy of "feminist weebs" that talk about the lack of equality in the west yet eat up eastern culture.
And to those saying about it... It has been patched and now runs smooth on the Xbox one X... And that the original author of the article had to apologise to the publisher for LYING.
"... managed to scale the resolution between 90 per cent and 50 per cent of native 4K, which means the resolution goes from the upper limit of 3456x1944 to the lower one of 1920x1080," CEO Valerio Di Donato says. "More technical details on this will follow in the next days, when everybody will be back from holiday vacations but meanwhile let us spell it out: it's not 1080p."
Funny as it wasn't anounced then, so how did you preorder? I mean it's not even 2 years since we knew it would be called the Switch. So how did you pre order this game before it or the switch was announced? Amazing!
And good for you! I prefer my dirt rally on PC running at real 4k, not Faux-K like the Pleb station Poor or Xbone. Getting 120 FPS on my nice display that goes higher than 60fps. I also like having AA that works and not having screen tearing. I mean since you are gonna take that stance I thought "well if the switch is so bad graphically then how bad is console in general when they still struggle to keep up with even the lower end of the PCMR.
Fair enough to say you aren't interested in the game, but you tried to make yourself seem... I dunno... It is just weird to post about a game on another system and act superior... At the end of the day you are being a console peasant. I own a switch, not because of the graphics, but the first party games and it being portable. If I want FPS and graphics I will stick to PC.
This dude is like saying: "I got fed up of waiting to hear Drake so went to listen to Kanye West" when Tupac albums exist. So well done for overspending on a poor console that lacks any power (my 3 year old laptop still shows up any console) and really only has about 2 exclusive games worth anything.
Own whatever you want. Play on whatever you want. That is what makes the world great. But don't be that dude that uses his or her preferences to attain social standing, and use it as a way of making yourself superior.
We all game, and it doesn't matter what you game on. Or what frame rate or resolution you do it at. Nothing is better, or worse.
That's weird because with the Xbox one X it runs at 60fps using 4k textures, advanced AA and HDR. So to compare is a bit... Well... Idiotic. But I checked to see, and found you are wrong.
A lot of people on her make claims about things as of they are experts. I'm sorry but you have to be an idiot to say something runs worse on one console than the other considering both use same custom AMD chipset and both use same architecture. Lol.
Look at the results of the poll. Its currently at under 20%. Though that is a high amount and should be addressed, it isn't a massive problem, like there was with original 360s.
I need to check mine, but I am confident there is nothing wrong. I never use mine docked though and live in the UK. Maybe those that play docked in hotter countries have this problem more than those that play handheld in cooler countries.
Every console has teething problems. It's why they make revisions.
Hahahaha. So you want it to be cheaper, so you can buy a pro controller that could make it more expensive just to have a switch that you cannot take the sides off (which to me is pretty big as it means less weight when using the kick stand, and also for games like Voez that can be used completely touchscreen) but also that you cannot play any two player games like Mario Kart... The joycons are perfect for games like Blaster Master. I do get it, to a casual the joycons do seem poor. But to anyone that is a gamer, they aren't much different to teeeeeent cutesy nes controllers. Then there are games that use motion control... Try using that with joycons that don't come off the main body. Ahahaha.
But all this is moot. You clearly cannot afford a switch, act like everyone that owns one is an idiot and arrogantly think you are superior. Dude, fair enough if you don't like the switch. It's like Mario... I can see someone saying they don't like the game. And that is taste. We all have our own preferences. Same as it is okay to not like the joycons. But to act like you are better and worse... You make out that they are useless. I hate to tell you this buddy, but that is not something you can claim. They are actually a technical marvel. And work very well for handheld.
But lemme put it this way. With built in controllers you cannot change them. If a switch goes inside the controller you need to send off your whole unit. So you are basically glorifying a false economy. Without removable joycons you might save $60. Now think how much two pro controllers would cost you. And now think of all the drawbacks. I personally just got the pro controller for home and use it in handheld. And I love being able to play poyo poyo Tetris and other games in two player with friends. Truly is nothing like playing a game or two in the Students Union. But in the UK we like our multiplayer games. It's why bomberman (Eric and the floaters) and Worms sold so well here back in the day.
Interesting... People that do well in life get rewarded with earning more. Meaning they can play games. I would have hated waiting to playing Breath of the Wild. A movie is much better when you don't know much about it. It being overhyped can kill it and make your expectations way too high.
I am glad I got mine at the start. And they won't be releasing one without removable joycons as then to play in TV mode you'd need a controller which negates the saving. Plus it would cannibalise their profits and sales of Labo.
Funny but PC could say the same about games like BOTW. Compared to games like Detroit and Deus Ex the game is ugly. Even compared to that famous game that people test their PCs with.
Mobile is a new platform. You can be as salty as a closet sailor but it doesn't change a thing. You are not intrinsically divine... Nor are you even that important. Many people do not have access to Switch and thus gaming on the go is only available through Android or iOS. There are plenty of amazing mobile games.
And Fortnite proves that F2P can be fun.
The irony is you have 88 in your name and yet like Jim Sterling you seem to display none of the knowledge that gamers from the 90s have... Instead only starting to game during the PS3 era... Which is okay. But don't then act like a "core" gamer when you seemingly didn't game during the arcade era. The only people that have your attitude have never ever played much arcade. Which is where pay to win started.
How salty. All games are pay to play. You do get that, Einstein? I mean you realise by a game being sold it is pay to play... That is the classic model....
@TommyTLG No it shouldn't. That would really annoy me as it then just says a massive f u to those of us that play handheld only.
I am glad they have kept it a real shooter and not use gyro that ends up taking all the fun out of it. By bringing it in you force everyone to use it.
If they bring in gyro you should be forced into a separate server away from cross platform and people playing with normal control schemes. Gyro should have it's own little section.
I'm sorry but why should Epic spend so much time adding a feature for a few people that only play Splatoon? Why? When they have had to do so much already. And it's free.
This is like someone giving a person a pizza for free and that person turning around and saying "all pizzas should be stuffed crust. Please make it a stuffed crust!" ... Jesus. Just enjoy the free pizza.
It amazes me that Kojima comes up with a cast, name and then trailer before even developing a story. He announced it all whilst the GDD barely had more than a dozen pages. And people act like he is a God. Epic release a game for free that becomes the biggest and they get sued by devs, have parents saying the game is evil like heroin, have fans demanding features days after release...
Just calm down. Enjoy the ride. You wanna give feedback? Do it through the game! You can do it. But Epic don't read comments on random websites.
Really? I hate gyro controls as they are weaker and also require space. They are okay holding a controller, but I don't play docked ever. I have a PC... Why would I need to?
So for me gyro are awful controls and if you can't use a thumbstick then maybe shooters aren't for you. It's been this way for a long time and most people don't have a problem with them. Sure mouse and keyboard offer better accuracy, but thumb is more than acceptable.
Also that is dumb. Years ago MS got fined and nearly destroyed for forcing IE on Windows users. This is almost the same. And it will actually work against them in the future. MS and Nintendo will be able to say their consoles offer cross platform, and in MS's case a far superior and secure network. Sony has very weak security so it's no surprise they are being pathetic.
PlayStation's were amazing. But alas, they are made by Sony. Such a terrible company.
Stahp. Just stahp. We get it, you're a Sony troll.
The game runs fine in handheld mode. Adaptive resolution really helps. Haven't heard the fan go mental like others have said. Nor have I felt my switch get that hot - not as hot as a PSPoor. And the battery lasted me 2 hours, just. But I expected that.
The game is actually a little more fun on the switch. And this is from someone at Epic Game Centre in Staffs UK.
But all it shows is that Sony fangirls are so desperate and whingey. It runs well, and is actually more fun on the switch. I guess it is because more adults use Switch than use PS4 so it just feels less idiotic.
And no. I don't work on Fortnite. Different area of Epic Games.
Really? That is slightly ignorant of you. BST is British summer time. This is due to daylight savings. Otherwise it's called GMT or Greenwich Mean Time. As it is the mean average of time on the planet. And PT means Pacific time.
It always makes me wonder how people can rave about comedy such as Rick and Morty and Family Guy and yet seemingly know so little. How do you laugh at something you don't understand. Case in point being Brian having to explain to a girl what PT means and her replying "no I think it's specific time" ... The irony is someone like you will laugh at that not realising the joke is at the expense of people like you.
Mate, just because you need to see people react to know how to doesn't mean the rest of us do. The whole industry has praised Nintendo Direct system and moreover, they eschew any over the top hype. I mean ffs people cheered and danced in the crowd yesterday for Just Dance. That should tell you everything.
But I get it. You like hyping things up and need to see others to tell you how you should think. God forbid you actually formulate your own opinion.
You are one of those sad acts that watches reaction videos, aren't you. How odious.
What do you mean? That is such a generic question.
Do you mean are the models higher poly? No. They aren't.
Do you mean is there more AA? Yes. There will be as the engine is more optimised for both lighting and AA.
Do you mean is there nVidia gameworks? No. It's a switch. That is why Nintendo are considering a new Switch for 2019 to include the nVidia chip.
I'm really trying to understand people on here.
The changes are usually how they design the models and about making the animations better.
But since it's a physics based game I would more hope they improve collision and physics and focused on getting the engine running smooth. I would also prefer to see them work on making sure the game plays the same as it's counterparts, so switching from PS or XO doesn't require adjusting time. I really could care less about the graphics. If that is what matters to you then get a PC or PS4 pro. On a tiny screen in 720p the graphics are already good enough. Let's not try and improve the graphics for docked, just to see those models and the engine to cause problems for handheld mode. Fine if you want two versions of the cart: a docked one with higher poly models for the OC GPU to render and a cart for handheld that uses lower size textures and lower poly models to make sure FPS stays in the realms of playable.
People really need to learn more about gaming. Right now Devs take a lot of stick. From comments to YouTube. We even get death threats. That is not cool. I think the gaming community needs to realise how much blood, sweat and tears go into games design. The fact that at uni we get no life. That we have to be trained in everything from Substance to Photoshop. That we have to be architects, anthropologists, engineers, artists, historians, etc. We have to be able to do more than just use blueprints in unreal and buy assets from a store.
And we work bloody hard. Sometimes 80-100 hours a week. At deadline we are stressed out. We miss birthdays, births, first words, first steps and all for a community that at times really is the most toxic environment in society. We don't want stardom. We don't want to be like Kojima or Peter "the liar" Molyneux. But we do want a little respect. And maybe that the community tries to understand...
You people at times rip apart our lives, our ability and our livelihoods. And tbh it is now showing. That is why steam is filled with crap. Designers have had enough. And now you are being drowned with asset flips and unfinished games. The good guys have had their hearts destroyed. So you are left with the bad.
The games community can be the greatest. When you get told how much your work, your creation and your baby means to someone. When someone hands you a piece of fan art. Some of the stories you hear are what make it all worth it.
We don't do this job because we want money. We do it because we are gamers. It's about time the community gave us a break. Stop calling us "lazy" as sometimes the community has to take credit for a hostile environment it helped to create just as much as Unbisoft, Activision and EA has.
And I agree. You should always hold Devs and publishers who have done wrong accountable. But now we are always the scapegoat.
Let me put it this way: if nobody had paid for loot boxes they wouldn't exist. If nobody paid for microtransactions in mobile games they would be better quality. Instead you created this partly. Now take ownership and realise gaming doesn't belong to the small section that have to be so nasty. Gaming is for everyone.
Oh okay... And a PS4 pro can handle 4k, stop being lazy Nintendo!!!
That is using your logic. There are many reasons they cannot just set up online. Especially when matchmaking is so important. Playing with friends is one thing, but playing competative...
You guys, that clearly have not played much, if any, FIFA games and simply are using such idiotic logic.
RMX has online. Wow. Really? Except that is a racer and Welp... Racers are easier to do online for. In fact racers are the easiest games of all time, going back to games like old NFS and Outrun. The fact you think that RMX and FIFA are comparable shows a ignorance.
EA are testing waters on a system that is unique because of how it is set up. The online service has been called into question by most of the industry. Funny how some here had a go at the online but now contradict that by claiming the online is good and needs no work and that all Devs should find it easy to include. Ha.
There is a reason it took time for Fortnite to be considered on the Switch and it's the same reason we never see a Battlefield or Overwatch on the system.
I love the switch, but to say a developer and the team are lazy because a system is weak. I mean you do realise all but Switch now use the same architecture? You do know that right? You do know that switch is the odd one out? And the fact they made a custom version of FIFA shows they aren't lazy. Your comments show that Nintendo fangirls are as bad as xboners. And that you are special little princesses that live in a world sheltered from reality. "EA are lazy because the first attempt wasn't perfect and didn't include every feature!" I mean Jesus.
Please go learn how Nintendo have set up their online servers and how Xbox live and PSN is set up.(bearing in mind Microsoft provide the tech to Sony for the PSN to work meaning that the set up is the same on both formats) and look at how Origin is set up on PC. Now also realise that those 3 versions are all the same and they have nearly 23 times as many customers. And their online services have been tested. This isn't the first FIFA they have released on those formats. 18 was the first Switch FIFA.
But whatever. I think Nintendo fangirls have forgotten that the Switch isn't that powerful. In handheld mode it's a beast... But in docked mode it's a joke. And that is what EA know. The designers are thinking about how to add unique things to the switch to take advantage of it being a handheld.
Also, just to ask... You do know that Sony and MS don't require you to connect your phone to the console to use chat features, right? Think about what else could be unique about how the switch does stuff, and now think about why maybe there have been obstacles to get online working to the same level it does on console and PC.
@Pichuka97 yeah, they said at the time they hadn't found a way to make it work due to the switch's limitations. How is it lazy? That is such a dumb assessment. Ever think they spent a lot of time trying to get this to work and thus it isn't lazy? It amazes me that idiots are allowed on the internet.
They have spent 9 months working with Nintendo. If you were a FIFA fan you would know that. This is to get online working. And also to get it so two devices that are nearby can play.
Isn't Pokémon lazy? That they claim its design that keeps the series from becoming more than "baby's first RPG" isn't that lazy? That they call limitations of Gameboy a design choice now?
@Grumblevolcano you mean like the PSP was for the DS? And the PSPGO was to combat the DS lite? And the Vita was 3DS? Tell us how that went. Why are people so dumb at times. To research and develop mobile tech costs more than a normal home console. Sony lost the last gen war to 360, only winning in Japan and Asia (minus China that didn't allow the sale) and have had problems with all their departments. So much so that different departments are now trying to vie for control of SCEE because of their success. Unfortunately the mobile market hurt them. I doubt their shareholders would allow such a fiscal gamble. The company has shrinking profits and has departments that are hemorrhaging money. That is why they have been selling off their brands. Heck, it's why they have shrunk their "cellphone" and mobile phone divisions.
Crimson tadpoles, that didn't harm the Wii. And Destiny and Titanfall were AAA... Whereas Minecraft wasn't... So your argument is dumb. Especially since Ninty has lived and died by its first party IPs.
Why would you trust a guy that refuses to change a game from its first iteration. I mean c'mon!
He is clearly a dumb as PokemonGO was quickly over and done with. He also clearly doesn't pay attention to the community or indeed to trends. Games on phones aren't full games. And the DS still sells, as do those tablets that claim to be gaming ones with hard controls instead of soft touchscreen ones. What a monumental idiot. Please get someone smarter to head up Pokémon and maybe just maybe the series can be saved from weeb furry idiots. Maybe it can get back to being a good game instead of a game stuck in the mid 90s.
@Nincompoop that is dumb. They have a season pass. The game not good enough for you? You people are never happy are you? They don't have to do anything. You are one of those self entitled princesses aren't you? That would complain about birthday gifts that weren't up to your snobbishly high standard.
@roadrunner343 what? You miss my point completely. If you are paying that price you'd want more. Speaking as someone that does buy expensive things. You judge on price if you have money. It's how you keep it. You spend wisely. These bags are very poor for their price. When you can get the same from a designer store (yes, designer. If I could post pics if I could) for a lot less. Debenhams in the UK has them. Then just buy Horizon case and there you go. These are created to capture mugs like you. Nothing to do with being expensive or cheap. I am saying when you pay more you expect better. That is the way it is. To say otherwise is stupid. You pay £1m for a car you expect more Rolls Royce than Honda Civic. [removed]
My points still count.
You cannot use it for anything else. For the price you'd expect that.
You can get better for cheaper that can be used for other purposes.
The design is slightly eww.
It isn't a good fit and your analogues will be screwed.
But sure... Pick up on price when I was talking about... Wait for it...VALUE. duuuh. Something that always applies. This stuff is designed to take advantage of people whom are posers. I mean it's not even fit for purpose. Ahahaha.
@Yasaal Love it when someone idiotic confuses opinion for fact. I also love it when said moron doesn't be constructive just screeches like the buffoon they are. What a reminder of our place. Some people are merely simpletons.

Re: Epic Games Responds To Fans' Pleas To Improve Fortnite On Switch With New Patch
Maybe the reason I don't get these issues is because the file isn't on SD. Maybe it is because I only played handheld... But it's weird that not everyone has the problems...
Re: Cosmic Star Heroine Dev Explains Its "Frustrating" Experience Working With Nintendo
Well he has the exposure he was after now.
I think he is a little... Dramatic. I doubt it is anywhere near as good as Octopath Traveler. Such few games on the Switch could ever assert such an idea. That doesn't mean that it's a bad game.
I enjoyed the game, but haven't played the Switch version. I think maybe they should have done more themselves to advertise the game, as it hasn't been advertised well for any platform.
Re: Players Have Had Enough Of Fortnite's "Unplayable" State On Switch, Send Plea To Epic Games
@NEStalgia
If that were true then more of the industry would use IdTech... Instead they use Havok, Their own (Frostbite/SnowDrop), Unity or Unreal?
All joking aside, Epic aren't used to being this big. They are learning as they go. This is all new territory for the industry... A live service game on a console that is both a home console and handheld? They are trying. People need to be patient.
Re: Players Have Had Enough Of Fortnite's "Unplayable" State On Switch, Send Plea To Epic Games
@HorridCrow
Same here! I have 120 hours plus! Not one of these. The only one is lag on 50v50 is you are all in and loads of people are using explosive weapons or anything that has an AoE.
But why are we not having them? The bouncing one is new to me... So it the chat thing... Is this because I only play in handheld? The only problem I have is not mentioned here. Sometimes when loading into the menu its all black, apart from the daily challenges and level/tier information on the left. I have to tab along and back. I sometimes get the same on the login part. The background doesn't load.

Re: Head Of Abstraction Games Addresses Technical Performance Of The Switch
@Kriven
I hear that. I am used to PC which limits the size of screen when using a proper display. It's about a lot more as well. A TV has poor latency, is terrible with colours and has a restricted framerate. I love that PS fanboys think the PS4 does true 4k at 60fps without the need of a displayport. Ahahaha.
Re: Head Of Abstraction Games Addresses Technical Performance Of The Switch
His comments forget two things:
Ark is considered in the PC community as a poorly optimised game.
And that graphics aren't everything. That is why games like Undertale and Shovel Knight command more respect than Ark. Ark failed somewhat at what it tried to be. The game is... Meh.
Yes, the power is limited. Guess what?! That's what you get with a portable system. Saying it lacks power is like me saying the PlayStation lacks portability and a touchscreen.

Re: Weirdness: YouTube Takes Down Official Senran Kagura Livestream Before It Could Even Finish
Lol. Look at the Weebs defending it.
1) it broke the rules. Doesn't matter if you agree with them. I don't agree that Weebs that get caught with pictures and videos of cartoons depicting child abuse get let off so lightly. But I respect the law even if I dont agree with it. That is something civilised people do. A famous philosopher was sentenced to death, and his friends tried to free him... He refused. Saying law is law.
2) YouTube monitors this because Japan is one of those countries that allows child porn. Whilst that happens it means all live streams from that area are monitored.
3) Guns aren't the same as pornography, implied paedophilia and the like. Even in the UK you can own a gun, and use it for sport, hunting or work. Child pornography has no use.
But at least there is a list of names here. A list of people that justify any sordid act committed by the Japanese.
Re: Soapbox: Fortnite's Motion Controls Leave a Lot to Be Desired
The big difference is Splatoon started production a long time ago and used motion controls from the start. It wasn't released on any other platform before needing converting. Add that to it being a big budget AAA game released for full retail price.
Fortnite is Epic's first FPS to use motion controls (not Nintendo's... ) And are doing so for motion controls designed by another company (Splatoon has the luxury of being made by the same company that makes the platform and the motion controls) and on a game that was created for a different platform. It has been out a matter of weeks, and isn't finished. It is a "live" service.
To cast shade this early on is a joke. And a little bit silly. By that standard we should judge children harshly "what do you mean you cannot use calculus and differentiation to find the optimal cuts to make the biggest box! You're 8! A 24 year old degree level engineer could! Your first attempt was rubbish!"
Instead people should be thankful they are trying, as I personally wouldn't. I find the idea of using motion controls as a gimmick and in solo game, it's fine. But in a team player based game (squads) an idiot with motion controls can let the team down. And then there is this idea that it's better... It really isn't. It's like analogue sticks... They are great and all... But the top Street Fighter/MK/etc players still use D pads or fight sticks. Not analogue thumbsticks.
I think it is great for people with disabilities. And needed. But for every day use? I think it is a gimmick and there is a reason that Sony, MS and the PC market havent brought in motion for online FPS.
The irony is that if you wanted to be at your best you'd call for Ninty to release a keyboard and mouse. And don't say about handheld, because using motion in handheld mode is just dumb if you live anywhere with sunlight.
Re: Digimon Survive Is A Brand New Digimon Game Coming To Switch Next Year
@angelus
You do know that Nintendo make neither of those, nor this? You do realise Nintendo cannot force Devs and publishers? Plus... Tekken is a pile of rubbish and Soul Blade is stuck in the early 2000s with questionable character design. It was okay 18 years ago... But now.
But way to show ignorance. Pokémon is for the likes of you: idiots that know no better.
But why get Tekken and Soul Blade when Smash and Street Fighter are on the Switch... Shouldn't their priority be in supporting those games?
All we need now is a special remaster of Final Fantasy 7 and 9 for the switch and then it will be my primary game machine along with PC... If only it could handle Quake Champions...

Re: Accessory Maker Bionik Gaming Is Releasing A Cable That Replicates The Nintendo Switch Dock
They are only 3D renders... So I will not hold my breath for them as it seems a little too kickscammer for me. The charger is very important. A lot of people with heat-related damage have gotten it from using the wrong charger - using the chargers from their phones. Most of which will not even charge. Some turbo chargers though can damage the battery as in terms people can understand: the battery is charging too quick and so the inside is heating up beyond safety limits. Anyone that vapes knows this. I use mechanical mods and thus have to know ohm's law. This is because the resistance of the coil a person should build is in relation to the amp of the battery. Not the voltage. If you get it wrong and draw too much ampage, the battery will heat up. The same goes in reverse. Fill a battery with an ampage too high and it heats up, and can vent.
I've seen in certain shops in the UK (shall we say those ones that sell things like BB guns, stuff for stoners and all seem to sell foreign mountain dew) and some won't charge... Others were dangerous. One packaged saying it was for switch, said on the box it was 12v at 10A...
Scary stuff.
Re: Daemon X Machina Producer Believes A Lot Of Modern Games Look The Same
@premko1
You are so right. Let's go back to the PlayStation days with no remakes or sequels... Ahem... Pitfall, pacman, bomberman, final fantasy, mortal Kombat... And on the 16 bit systems there certainly wasn't games such as final fantasy 6... Or a ton of Street Fighter games... Ahem... Or R Type... Or Alien Breed... And it's not as though there were a million versions of Mario or Sonic.
But you are right. Reboots do suck. Look at Doom and Tomb Raider. Destiny and No Man's Sky were so much better. And who the hell liked Metal Gear Solid... They shouldnt have continued the series. Same as Final Fantasy and Tekken. They should have left it at one. And resident evil.. well it should have ended with 2... Or at least ended before they removed the amazing tank controls. I mean RE: Biohazard is such an ugly, badly designed game. It shows such a lack of creativity to create something fresh whilst confined to a brief. It doesn't show amazing skill. We all know that it is harder to build a house when you can build anywhere. It is easier when you are forced to fit a certain plot.
I loved your comment. It made my night. I totally agree with you that sequels are lazy and that games like Witcher 3, GTA 5, Resident Evil 6, Mario Odyssey, BOTW, Farcry 5 and Final Fantasy 15 are all terrible. LOL.
Re: Daemon X Machina Producer Believes A Lot Of Modern Games Look The Same
@ieatdragonz
I agree!!! When you look at Fortnite and PUBG they are identical!!! :/ Same as Street Fighter and Soul Blade... And it annoys me how Borderlands and Left4Dead look the exact same... :/
No, but I do get you. It's like open world adventures. It annoyed me how much BOTW looked like Assassin's Creed Syndicate. And more annoying that Quake Champions looks frame for frame, tri for tri, like Overwatch and Siege. :/
Look, maybe you are new to gaming. But this has always been the same. ALWAYS. There has always been games to jump on a bandwagon. This guy has even made a game himself that does that!!! I mean it's hardly original... Even the name is generic.
But when you mention COD... You mean like WW2 game looking like... Well world war 2... That is like saying all racing Sims look the same... Yes, that is because they are going for realism...
I think you need to consider the logic here. Battlefield and COD will share many similarities because they are trying to recreate real life... But to say they are all the same is ... Well... Dumb. Look at fighting games. Injustice is different in look to street fighter which looks different to Soul Calibre which all look different to Smash.
But if we are going down this route, please tell me how a game that is the same as every mech game since the N64 is any different? Like seriously. These games were 10 a penny in arcades 8 years ago. And the art style was especially en vogue.
Re: Daemon X Machina Producer Believes A Lot Of Modern Games Look The Same
I say the exact same thing about anime and Japanese games.
Though I agree! Pokémon Let's Go Eevee and Pikachu sure does look like BGE2 and Tetris VR... Ahem.
I know what he means, but he is being a little pretentious and hypocritical. His game isn't exactly groundbreaking, from an artistic perspective. A lot of games look the same because of realism. If you have 10 games that are going for that asthetic they will look slightly similar. As for games that are stylised all looking the same... I think Limbo, Little Nightmares, Cuphead, Child of Light, etc all look very different. Compared to the 32-bit era where everything did look the same... (Rayman, spyro, crash, gex 3D, conkers, etc)
But if we take say... Battle royal. We have PUBG, Fortnite and Realm Royale. 3 games that look different in art style. However the huds will be similar. This is because it's a game and lots of research has been put into UI. This is because it's a science. It's intuitive. On every phone the clock is at the top and the keyboard comes up from the bottom. They all follow a set layout. Same as UI in games. If every game was different, every game would have a steeper learning curve. We expect in a shooting game that one trigger aims down the irons, and the other shoots. We expect whilest driving that one is accelerate and the other is brake. That is how it is.
And yes this does change over time. One game might buck a trend and change the landscape... But it doesn't happen often. And usually that only relates to player feedback, such as being shot in a game. And to give a player as much of the screen as possible, so the UI should be as minimalistic as possible.
That is my belief anyways. And what I got taught. Though I think this dude saying all this is simply to sell his game. To get free press whilst at the same time rubbishing most other games, trying to sound like he is a Messiah or prophet for creativity. He just seems a bit of an idiot.
Re: Nintendo UK Is Asking For As Much As £180 To Repair Cracked Switch Consoles
I really question this as 1 in 5 is really high since I know at least 40 switch owners, including myself, and only one has this problem and when a group of us tried to investigate it, the one with the crack used hers a lot in docked mode and didn't use a hardcase for travel. Yes, I am sure she didn't damage it through neglect. But I am saying that maybe some of these have more common factors other than "it gets hot so it must be the switch at fault and not my treatment of the console!" And I really really don't judge a poll where people will have googled about the crack and come to here, then polled their crack. Nobody was searching "I don't have a crack in my switch" to bring to a website.
This is why polls like this aren't just idiotic, but they are actually dangerous. The poll is pointless and is as relevant as turd sandwich.
As I said... I know a lot of switch owners. And know pretty much every one at my uni. Kinda funny how NONE of us have had this problem. Considering at least 10 of us should have it according to nintylife.
I shall keep going and asking random switch owners.
As for their response: you people had no problems with Sony doing this: and charging extortionate prices for refurbished consoles back in the PS3 days. And if a game was stuck in the optical drive then you lost that game. Nobody has a problem paying £1000 for a phone that costs less than a tenth of that to make, and then they charge similar prices just to replace a screen on a 5 year old iPhone. Wanna know why they are charging this much? It is because idiots payed all the other companies and now have set a culture where to fix tech is a premium cost. And people only seem to have a problem when Nintendo do it.... Funny that...
And may I also say that to fix a cracked case on an iPhone X from Apple costs... £556.44... ahem.... And the screen costs £286.44...
Sony Xperia Z1 from carphone costs... £59.99... cost of replacing screen is... £81.10.
Samsung phones cost over £200 to replace ONE part that can be done easily.
Just like to remind everyone: this is the world you have made.
Re: Nintendo Clamps Down On Risqué Imagery By Censoring Taisen Hot Gimmick Switch Port
Great logic by the weeb journo.
Let me put it this way, idiot. An adult shop on the high street wont have a massive advert on the outside for a sybian or ohmybod. They instead blackout the images. This is because... Wait for it... Kids are on the street.
Kids can go onto the eshop and if they allow disgusting pervy images then parents will complain and governments will step in. Right now gaming has the joy of policing itself. But with all these idiotic people it won't last. It is already changing because of dumb games like CS:GO and Overwatch.
Personally i find the image and the game repugnant. It appeals to base humans that haven't evolved. It's basically the Love Island of gaming. For trashy people. But because it's a JRPG it's forgiven by the pretentious weeb community that cannot see they are the same as those idiots watching trashy reality shows filled with sex to cover up the fact it's devoid of any creativity.
Don't even get me started on the hypocrisy of "feminist weebs" that talk about the lack of equality in the west yet eat up eastern culture.

Re: More Pre-Order Cancellations Cast Serious Doubt Over Anti-Grav Racer Redout On Switch
@spoonmanx
Funny as it wasn't anounced then, so how did you preorder? I mean it's not even 2 years since we knew it would be called the Switch. So how did you pre order this game before it or the switch was announced? Amazing!
And good for you! I prefer my dirt rally on PC running at real 4k, not Faux-K like the Pleb station Poor or Xbone. Getting 120 FPS on my nice display that goes higher than 60fps. I also like having AA that works and not having screen tearing. I mean since you are gonna take that stance I thought "well if the switch is so bad graphically then how bad is console in general when they still struggle to keep up with even the lower end of the PCMR.
Fair enough to say you aren't interested in the game, but you tried to make yourself seem... I dunno... It is just weird to post about a game on another system and act superior... At the end of the day you are being a console peasant. I own a switch, not because of the graphics, but the first party games and it being portable. If I want FPS and graphics I will stick to PC.
This dude is like saying: "I got fed up of waiting to hear Drake so went to listen to Kanye West" when Tupac albums exist. So well done for overspending on a poor console that lacks any power (my 3 year old laptop still shows up any console) and really only has about 2 exclusive games worth anything.
Own whatever you want. Play on whatever you want. That is what makes the world great. But don't be that dude that uses his or her preferences to attain social standing, and use it as a way of making yourself superior.
We all game, and it doesn't matter what you game on. Or what frame rate or resolution you do it at. Nothing is better, or worse.
Re: More Pre-Order Cancellations Cast Serious Doubt Over Anti-Grav Racer Redout On Switch
@OorWullie
That's weird because with the Xbox one X it runs at 60fps using 4k textures, advanced AA and HDR. So to compare is a bit... Well... Idiotic. But I checked to see, and found you are wrong.
A lot of people on her make claims about things as of they are experts. I'm sorry but you have to be an idiot to say something runs worse on one console than the other considering both use same custom AMD chipset and both use same architecture. Lol.

Look at the results of the poll. Its currently at under 20%. Though that is a high amount and should be addressed, it isn't a massive problem, like there was with original 360s.
I need to check mine, but I am confident there is nothing wrong. I never use mine docked though and live in the UK. Maybe those that play docked in hotter countries have this problem more than those that play handheld in cooler countries.
Every console has teething problems. It's why they make revisions.
Re: GameStop Reveals That Switch Sales Doubled In The Week After E3
@GKO900
Hahahaha. So you want it to be cheaper, so you can buy a pro controller that could make it more expensive just to have a switch that you cannot take the sides off (which to me is pretty big as it means less weight when using the kick stand, and also for games like Voez that can be used completely touchscreen) but also that you cannot play any two player games like Mario Kart... The joycons are perfect for games like Blaster Master. I do get it, to a casual the joycons do seem poor. But to anyone that is a gamer, they aren't much different to teeeeeent cutesy nes controllers. Then there are games that use motion control... Try using that with joycons that don't come off the main body. Ahahaha.
But all this is moot. You clearly cannot afford a switch, act like everyone that owns one is an idiot and arrogantly think you are superior. Dude, fair enough if you don't like the switch. It's like Mario... I can see someone saying they don't like the game. And that is taste. We all have our own preferences. Same as it is okay to not like the joycons. But to act like you are better and worse... You make out that they are useless. I hate to tell you this buddy, but that is not something you can claim. They are actually a technical marvel. And work very well for handheld.
But lemme put it this way. With built in controllers you cannot change them. If a switch goes inside the controller you need to send off your whole unit. So you are basically glorifying a false economy. Without removable joycons you might save $60. Now think how much two pro controllers would cost you. And now think of all the drawbacks. I personally just got the pro controller for home and use it in handheld. And I love being able to play poyo poyo Tetris and other games in two player with friends. Truly is nothing like playing a game or two in the Students Union. But in the UK we like our multiplayer games. It's why bomberman (Eric and the floaters) and Worms sold so well here back in the day.
Re: GameStop Reveals That Switch Sales Doubled In The Week After E3

Interesting... People that do well in life get rewarded with earning more. Meaning they can play games. I would have hated waiting to playing Breath of the Wild. A movie is much better when you don't know much about it. It being overhyped can kill it and make your expectations way too high.
I am glad I got mine at the start. And they won't be releasing one without removable joycons as then to play in TV mode you'd need a controller which negates the saving. Plus it would cannibalise their profits and sales of Labo.

@GoldenGamer88

Funny but PC could say the same about games like BOTW. Compared to games like Detroit and Deus Ex the game is ugly. Even compared to that famous game that people test their PCs with.
Mobile is a new platform. You can be as salty as a closet sailor but it doesn't change a thing. You are not intrinsically divine... Nor are you even that important. Many people do not have access to Switch and thus gaming on the go is only available through Android or iOS. There are plenty of amazing mobile games.
And Fortnite proves that F2P can be fun.
The irony is you have 88 in your name and yet like Jim Sterling you seem to display none of the knowledge that gamers from the 90s have... Instead only starting to game during the PS3 era... Which is okay. But don't then act like a "core" gamer when you seemingly didn't game during the arcade era. The only people that have your attitude have never ever played much arcade. Which is where pay to win started.

Re: A Mysterious Countdown Has Appeared In Fortnite On Switch
@TommyTLG No it shouldn't. That would really annoy me as it then just says a massive f u to those of us that play handheld only.
I am glad they have kept it a real shooter and not use gyro that ends up taking all the fun out of it. By bringing it in you force everyone to use it.
If they bring in gyro you should be forced into a separate server away from cross platform and people playing with normal control schemes. Gyro should have it's own little section.
I'm sorry but why should Epic spend so much time adding a feature for a few people that only play Splatoon? Why? When they have had to do so much already. And it's free.
This is like someone giving a person a pizza for free and that person turning around and saying "all pizzas should be stuffed crust. Please make it a stuffed crust!" ... Jesus. Just enjoy the free pizza.
It amazes me that Kojima comes up with a cast, name and then trailer before even developing a story. He announced it all whilst the GDD barely had more than a dozen pages. And people act like he is a God. Epic release a game for free that becomes the biggest and they get sued by devs, have parents saying the game is evil like heroin, have fans demanding features days after release...
Just calm down. Enjoy the ride. You wanna give feedback? Do it through the game! You can do it. But Epic don't read comments on random websites.
Re: A Mysterious Countdown Has Appeared In Fortnite On Switch
@BenAV
Really? I hate gyro controls as they are weaker and also require space. They are okay holding a controller, but I don't play docked ever. I have a PC... Why would I need to?
So for me gyro are awful controls and if you can't use a thumbstick then maybe shooters aren't for you. It's been this way for a long time and most people don't have a problem with them. Sure mouse and keyboard offer better accuracy, but thumb is more than acceptable.

Re: Sony's Share Value Takes A Hit Following Fortnite Account Woes On Nintendo Switch

Also that is dumb. Years ago MS got fined and nearly destroyed for forcing IE on Windows users. This is almost the same. And it will actually work against them in the future. MS and Nintendo will be able to say their consoles offer cross platform, and in MS's case a far superior and secure network. Sony has very weak security so it's no surprise they are being pathetic.
PlayStation's were amazing. But alas, they are made by Sony. Such a terrible company.
Re: Sony's Share Value Takes A Hit Following Fortnite Account Woes On Nintendo Switch
@vitalemrecords
Stahp. Just stahp. We get it, you're a Sony troll.
The game runs fine in handheld mode. Adaptive resolution really helps. Haven't heard the fan go mental like others have said. Nor have I felt my switch get that hot - not as hot as a PSPoor. And the battery lasted me 2 hours, just. But I expected that.
The game is actually a little more fun on the switch. And this is from someone at Epic Game Centre in Staffs UK.
But all it shows is that Sony fangirls are so desperate and whingey. It runs well, and is actually more fun on the switch. I guess it is because more adults use Switch than use PS4 so it just feels less idiotic.
And no. I don't work on Fortnite. Different area of Epic Games.

No. It's a switch. That is why Nintendo are considering a new Switch for 2019 to include the nVidia chip.
I'm really trying to understand people on here.
The changes are usually how they design the models and about making the animations better.
But since it's a physics based game I would more hope they improve collision and physics and focused on getting the engine running smooth. I would also prefer to see them work on making sure the game plays the same as it's counterparts, so switching from PS or XO doesn't require adjusting time. I really could care less about the graphics. If that is what matters to you then get a PC or PS4 pro. On a tiny screen in 720p the graphics are already good enough. Let's not try and improve the graphics for docked, just to see those models and the engine to cause problems for handheld mode. Fine if you want two versions of the cart: a docked one with higher poly models for the OC GPU to render and a cart for handheld that uses lower size textures and lower poly models to make sure FPS stays in the realms of playable.
People really need to learn more about gaming. Right now Devs take a lot of stick. From comments to YouTube. We even get death threats. That is not cool. I think the gaming community needs to realise how much blood, sweat and tears go into games design. The fact that at uni we get no life. That we have to be trained in everything from Substance to Photoshop. That we have to be architects, anthropologists, engineers, artists, historians, etc. We have to be able to do more than just use blueprints in unreal and buy assets from a store.
And we work bloody hard. Sometimes 80-100 hours a week. At deadline we are stressed out. We miss birthdays, births, first words, first steps and all for a community that at times really is the most toxic environment in society. We don't want stardom. We don't want to be like Kojima or Peter "the liar" Molyneux. But we do want a little respect. And maybe that the community tries to understand...
You people at times rip apart our lives, our ability and our livelihoods. And tbh it is now showing. That is why steam is filled with crap. Designers have had enough. And now you are being drowned with asset flips and unfinished games. The good guys have had their hearts destroyed. So you are left with the bad.
The games community can be the greatest. When you get told how much your work, your creation and your baby means to someone. When someone hands you a piece of fan art. Some of the stories you hear are what make it all worth it.
We don't do this job because we want money. We do it because we are gamers. It's about time the community gave us a break. Stop calling us "lazy" as sometimes the community has to take credit for a hostile environment it helped to create just as much as Unbisoft, Activision and EA has.
And I agree. You should always hold Devs and publishers who have done wrong accountable. But now we are always the scapegoat.
Let me put it this way: if nobody had paid for loot boxes they wouldn't exist. If nobody paid for microtransactions in mobile games they would be better quality. Instead you created this partly. Now take ownership and realise gaming doesn't belong to the small section that have to be so nasty. Gaming is for everyone.
Re: Play Online With Your Friends In The Switch Version Of FIFA 19
@Folkloner
Oh okay... And a PS4 pro can handle 4k, stop being lazy Nintendo!!!
That is using your logic. There are many reasons they cannot just set up online. Especially when matchmaking is so important. Playing with friends is one thing, but playing competative...
You guys, that clearly have not played much, if any, FIFA games and simply are using such idiotic logic.
RMX has online. Wow. Really? Except that is a racer and Welp... Racers are easier to do online for. In fact racers are the easiest games of all time, going back to games like old NFS and Outrun. The fact you think that RMX and FIFA are comparable shows a ignorance.
EA are testing waters on a system that is unique because of how it is set up. The online service has been called into question by most of the industry. Funny how some here had a go at the online but now contradict that by claiming the online is good and needs no work and that all Devs should find it easy to include. Ha.
There is a reason it took time for Fortnite to be considered on the Switch and it's the same reason we never see a Battlefield or Overwatch on the system.
I love the switch, but to say a developer and the team are lazy because a system is weak. I mean you do realise all but Switch now use the same architecture? You do know that right? You do know that switch is the odd one out? And the fact they made a custom version of FIFA shows they aren't lazy. Your comments show that Nintendo fangirls are as bad as xboners. And that you are special little princesses that live in a world sheltered from reality. "EA are lazy because the first attempt wasn't perfect and didn't include every feature!" I mean Jesus.
Please go learn how Nintendo have set up their online servers and how Xbox live and PSN is set up.(bearing in mind Microsoft provide the tech to Sony for the PSN to work meaning that the set up is the same on both formats) and look at how Origin is set up on PC. Now also realise that those 3 versions are all the same and they have nearly 23 times as many customers. And their online services have been tested. This isn't the first FIFA they have released on those formats. 18 was the first Switch FIFA.
But whatever. I think Nintendo fangirls have forgotten that the Switch isn't that powerful. In handheld mode it's a beast... But in docked mode it's a joke. And that is what EA know. The designers are thinking about how to add unique things to the switch to take advantage of it being a handheld.
Also, just to ask... You do know that Sony and MS don't require you to connect your phone to the console to use chat features, right? Think about what else could be unique about how the switch does stuff, and now think about why maybe there have been obstacles to get online working to the same level it does on console and PC.
Re: Play Online With Your Friends In The Switch Version Of FIFA 19
@Pichuka97 yeah, they said at the time they hadn't found a way to make it work due to the switch's limitations. How is it lazy? That is such a dumb assessment. Ever think they spent a lot of time trying to get this to work and thus it isn't lazy? It amazes me that idiots are allowed on the internet.
They have spent 9 months working with Nintendo. If you were a FIFA fan you would know that. This is to get online working. And also to get it so two devices that are nearby can play.
Isn't Pokémon lazy? That they claim its design that keeps the series from becoming more than "baby's first RPG" isn't that lazy? That they call limitations of Gameboy a design choice now?
Re: Pokémon Boss Didn't Think Switch Would Be A Success In The Age Of The Smartphone
@Grumblevolcano you mean like the PSP was for the DS? And the PSPGO was to combat the DS lite? And the Vita was 3DS? Tell us how that went. Why are people so dumb at times. To research and develop mobile tech costs more than a normal home console. Sony lost the last gen war to 360, only winning in Japan and Asia (minus China that didn't allow the sale) and have had problems with all their departments. So much so that different departments are now trying to vie for control of SCEE because of their success. Unfortunately the mobile market hurt them. I doubt their shareholders would allow such a fiscal gamble. The company has shrinking profits and has departments that are hemorrhaging money. That is why they have been selling off their brands. Heck, it's why they have shrunk their "cellphone" and mobile phone divisions.
Crimson tadpoles, that didn't harm the Wii. And Destiny and Titanfall were AAA... Whereas Minecraft wasn't... So your argument is dumb. Especially since Ninty has lived and died by its first party IPs.
Re: Pokémon Boss Didn't Think Switch Would Be A Success In The Age Of The Smartphone
Why would you trust a guy that refuses to change a game from its first iteration. I mean c'mon!
He is clearly a dumb as PokemonGO was quickly over and done with. He also clearly doesn't pay attention to the community or indeed to trends. Games on phones aren't full games. And the DS still sells, as do those tablets that claim to be gaming ones with hard controls instead of soft touchscreen ones. What a monumental idiot. Please get someone smarter to head up Pokémon and maybe just maybe the series can be saved from weeb furry idiots. Maybe it can get back to being a good game instead of a game stuck in the mid 90s.
Re: The Latest Zelda: Breath of the Wild Gift May Make You Crack
@Nincompoop that is dumb. They have a season pass. The game not good enough for you? You people are never happy are you? They don't have to do anything. You are one of those self entitled princesses aren't you? That would complain about birthday gifts that weren't up to your snobbishly high standard.
Re: Get Namco Museum For Free With This Lovely WaterField Pro Switch Case
@roadrunner343 what? You miss my point completely. If you are paying that price you'd want more. Speaking as someone that does buy expensive things. You judge on price if you have money. It's how you keep it. You spend wisely. These bags are very poor for their price. When you can get the same from a designer store (yes, designer. If I could post pics if I could) for a lot less. Debenhams in the UK has them. Then just buy Horizon case and there you go. These are created to capture mugs like you. Nothing to do with being expensive or cheap. I am saying when you pay more you expect better. That is the way it is. To say otherwise is stupid. You pay £1m for a car you expect more Rolls Royce than Honda Civic. [removed]
My points still count.
But sure... Pick up on price when I was talking about... Wait for it...VALUE. duuuh. Something that always applies. This stuff is designed to take advantage of people whom are posers. I mean it's not even fit for purpose. Ahahaha.

@Yasaal Love it when someone idiotic confuses opinion for fact. I also love it when said moron doesn't be constructive just screeches like the buffoon they are. What a reminder of our place. Some people are merely simpletons.
