Very cool BioWare, very cool. All weapons except masterworks are identical. if you pick up hammerhead assault rifle, its always will be this grey rifle, same attachments, name and color scheme, unless its a masterwork which is anthem version of exotic.
That's lazy, simple as that.

Even the Anthem subreddit that used to be one big hype train is now filled with complaints. I don't know if it was smart to give a small group of people a one week headstart. I see enough people losing enthousiasm for the game watching and reading their experiences. You're kidding yourself if you think one week is going to fix all this. I think he was saying if you didn’t give a head start people wouldn’t have time or knowledge to back out of buying it in advance. Give people a week head start and those few spread the word and people who were going to buy now don’t.

I hear you that it brings the warts to light while people can still cancel, but ultimately bad games get found out at some point and it hurts sales.

This 1 week ahead option was definitely a big mistake. Again. They did they same mistake with MEA. Before MEA was officially out, memes with poor animations been flying around the net. Now, 4 days before official release i can see more posts about people cancelling their pre-orders than been happy with keeping them. They will definitely sell more copies if Anthem will start same day on every platform.
Even i was very confused about this game - not really my type, but it is still BW, they work on it so long... and then reddit hit me with poor to mediocre short campaign full of fillers - thank you, bye.
This ones probably on EA for wanting to push people into their Origin Access service. Also, this will very likely be the case for the next Dragon Age

I see enough people losing enthousiasm for the game watching and reading their experiences. Remember the scene in Titanic where people were playing music while the ship was sinking? Thats is where we are now. Just wait til the professional reviews come out and the game really starts to catch fire....the musicians will panic and stop playing music....

So they earn 3,99 for Origin /EA Access and in many cases with early bad reviews they are losing selling game of full price after people cancel pre-orders / decide to wait until price will drop.

Well, I'm not BW's target audience anymore, I knew that since 2012. But, if the game is the Second Coming, I'd buy it on launch day. There's no BW game since ME3 that deserved this. Not even DAI.

Even the EA gamechangers are turning at this point and recommending that people hold off. Example below from mtashed, a content creator I think is great:

Hm.... Load screens and repetitions and not enough to do, the real game economy hitting you in the face.... plus, today is Feb 17.
I wonder if the FB3 editor is the main culprit with the loading screens vs the Snowdrop engine for The Division / Division 2 with no such problems?

So...Anthem. Buy now? Buy after a discount? Don't buy? I say buy, but let your conscience guide your decision. Myself had another full day with Anthem. Really like it so far.

No idea what you enjoy, but for me, I would say "Discount" if I didn't use Origin Premier. There is good stuff in the game that I like, but not worth the full price. However if Bioware keeps the story updates coming in the next few months and works harder to improve the mission design, then it might change my mind. So far I would say its about a 7.5 out of 10. I like SP games with a good story. Bioshock, ME1 and 2, Titanfall 2.
MEA was 7/10 for me. If you gave Anthem 7.5, it's on the "buy after a huge discount" category.
Wasn't a fan of Andromeda, but this game am a fan of.

Even the Anthem subreddit that used to be one big hype train is now filled with complaints. I don't know if it was smart to give a small group of people a one week headstart. I see enough people losing enthousiasm for the game watching and reading their experiences. The majority of posts on the front page are complaints/problem reports/wish lists for improvements. This is a dramatic change from even 2 weeks ago, when it was much more hype. In hindsight, I think both the demos and this early access may have been a PR mistake, but it's a little hard to tell. We'd need to know if the rate of pre-order cancellations have increased, compared to say the first 3 days after the VIP demo. I mean, we can't just go by the front page of Reddit, because based on that from 2 weeks ago, Anthem was the best game that was ever created. It's also hard to gauge the rate of conversion of fence-sitters to either pre-order or purchase within 1 month of release. Both of those rates are probably lower than they would have been if these early reactions had a more positive mix, but shrug.

I mean, we can't just go by the front page of Reddit Indeed, that place is a never ending circle jerk, almost useless. Not entirely, but almost. Nevertheless, you have a point about their inability to learn from Andromeda, or they really thought they had nailed it. Frankly, I am not sure which would be more disappointing.

Oh damn, I forgot all about Denuvo. With Steam being so prominent I've become quite use to playing PC games without intrusive DRM. It's like taking a very unwelcome trip to the past

I wonder if the FB3 editor is the main culprit with the loading screens vs the Snowdrop engine for The Division / Division 2 with no such problems? [/div][/quote] I am pretty sure it's a FB issue. The engine is built that way to accommodate the huge Battlefield maps and load them up all at once. But in BF you are at that map for longer than you are in Anthem (unless you spend over an hour in Freeplay). The engine was not meant for a game where you keep changing your surroundings and go back and forth through maps. One of the reasons we can't run fast in Tarsis is also because it seems the game doesn't load the whole map at once and has to have the time to load the areas you move towards (notice the doors opening for you?).
