Perhaps Anthem is just too big of a game compared to Battlefield V? I'm not saying that BFV isn't a large, complicated game, but Anthem is more than just a shooter. No idea... Nvidia ray tracing requires DirectX Ray-Tracing (DXR) which is DX12-only. Seeing as how Anthem is built on a DX11 renderpath (based on the released PC sysreqs), it would be impossible for it to support ray tracing. Just as well, too, since Frostbite's DX12 renderpath has serious issues. Enabling DX12 in BFV costs a significant chunk of frames on Nvidia GPUs (this is without turning RTX on) and introduces stuttering. I also heard the same thing happened with BF1, though I never experienced it personally. I'd rather Bioware focus on gameplay and content rather than trying to tack on RTX features to what is already a buggy DX12 implementation that apparently even DICE is incapable of or can't be bothered to fix after multiple years.

HeartofVancouver @dimitrirealtor@benirvo @anthemgame is there a afk vote kick in matchmatcking?? Or we stuck carrying someone? Ben Irving @benirvoNo vote kick. We think too many negative behaviors come from this. We do have ways to AFK kick someone Nick @xtokix18@benirvo Hey Ben, what's gonna be the highest level in the game? Ben Irving @benirvoPilot level - 30 at launch. Item level - you will have to find out [HASH]ANT

I'm curious about something relatively minor I've noticed: the color of the healthbar. In one of the videos we've seen (Ranger gameplay, pretty sure) the Javelin's healthbar was white instead of the yellow we've seen from almost every other gameplay footage. Is this indicative of a Javelin's rarity level, or was that a feature that's been changed/scrapped since then?

Health bar is usually green, but goes red if it gets low. We talking about the same thing? Second bar, top left. The yellow bar on the bottom right is the ultimate charge bar.

bigjonny83 @bigjonny83 @bio_Warner hi any chance you can finally answer my question I've asked it so many times to all the devs and no answer will there be a companion app for anthem
Jonathan Warner @bio_Warner Hi! No companion app at launch but maybe later (sorry it took so long to answer your question)

The yellow bar on the bottom right is the ultimate charge bar. Yeah the more recent footage has the Storm, Ranger, and Interceptor with green health bars while Colossus has a yellow armor bar (which functions as health anyway). I mention it because I could have sworn there was a Ranger video where the health bar was white instead.

Ok didn't want to pull up the our world your story thread to post this and please I am not complaining (tho some will say so) but I was kind of expecting a whole new world but after reviewing the video's this morning I saw quite a bit of graphic items from DA games plus ME and MEA etc. I know, what are you saying exactly well I was hoping for new IP so new graphics no visual clues of other games if I remember correctly this is supposed to be a whole new world so with that said yes I have a very good imagination but (now this is just me) seeing all those graphics from other games well....it kind of distracts me from the whole new world thing. I have preordered the game and will play it to the max but I just thought I would bring it to your attention in case you all didn't notice.

Hey...did someone say 'green ranger'? Where is our Dragon Zord?! OK, that's it....I'm painting my first Colossus in the colour scheme of the Dragon Zord from the original Power Rangers. ANd my second one will be a White Tiger Colossus. I'm also doing my Rangers in Green and Gold and then White, Black and Gold. (Put a stamp on it and call it a Done Deal)

But that's standard industry practice, and since all BW game since DAI are on Frostbite...

OKAY. I just saw/heard something in RyanCentral's newest video that makes me a little more confident that even if the story has to take a backseat, the Bioware personality and charm is still there. Past his voice over you can hear/see Brin complaining about the Scars, and the Freelancer replies: "Tell us how you REALLY feel, Brin." I've been playing a lot of Monster Hunter World lately to get myself used to the 4-squad objective based online gameplay that Anthem's selling itself on, and it had a similar take on the narrative and characters. Main throughline story isn't much to write home about, but the charm and personality is more than enough to outshine the grind and repetitiveness of the mission objectives.

Where was this tower in DAI? wasn't DAI but the one shepard ported through when he/she went through the beam I would have to find the vid again that shows it in or near Fort Tarius.

Question about the legendary edition:
The special armor for the storm, colossus etc, is this purely a different look? Or does it also have stats / abilities? I've gotten mixed impressions about this and I was wondering if anyone can clear it up?

I've gotten mixed impressions about this and I was wondering if anyone can clear it up? They are purely cosmetic without any stats or other in game effect. There will also be weapons in the Legion of the Dawn set though that will likely give you a small initial advantage but will be outclassed by the weapons you loot in game soon <tm>.

weaponS? or weapon singular? I only know of the assault rifle weapon. And the javelin gear for the ranger.

You're right, one weapon and one gear item. Sorry for the inaccuracy.

I kind think if they're going to add special, unique weapons armor to various versions of any game such as this, that those pieces should be the best, and not be out-done by other items found in the world, dropped by enemies etc. because that makes them not so special. "Oh yay...I have this nice piece of armor, but this other piece I found on a dead enemy is statistically better. Makes this Special Edition armor piece look like tinfoil.
Why then did I pay x dollars for the SE of this game to gain a piece of armor that I'm not going to use because I can find better elsewhere in the game?
So again, I think that if any game is going to have added bonuses of special weapons, armor etc that in order to make them so coveted and 'special' that they should really be the best of the best (because that will also validate the extra cost of a CE game version over the Standard (game only) retail box that could be found at any store such as Bestbuy or Staples.

I kind think if they're going to add special, unique weapons armor to various versions of any game such as this, that those pieces should be the best, and not be out-done by other items found in the world, dropped by enemies etc. because that makes them not so special.

Because then you get the accusations of pay-to-win. If you shell out real world money for a CE of a multiplayer game, and the equipment is head and shoulders above what you can loot, those who don't have the CE are at a disadvantage, unlike in a SP game. BioWare did it right with the LOD armour, you get bragging rights, but it's only cosmetic (as is the rest of the game's armour, if I remember right), it's mainly what you attach to it that counts. As for the weapon, I don't know if it's available right at the start of the game, or if you need to wait, and get a leveled version when you reach the end of the story campaign (as Destiny 2 did). That would allow you to have a gun with more use, rather than one that will be outclassed almost immediately.

Ah, Talon. I see your point. I never thought about it that way...But that makes sense especially in a game like ANTHEM. Good point.
