Just realized I messed up my gear. I was supposed to look at the traits of the pieces and match them up. I just scrapped all the extra stuff.

About 8 hours in now. Got 2 more hours left for Thursday, and then a day off on Friday (shoop da woop!!) First things first. I can sprint in fort tarsis!! I don't know why it didn't work earlier, but now I can sprint at an increase of about 40%, where as previously it was 5%. The getting around speed is now... still horrid, but liveable. I reckon they should just disable sprinting and make sprint speed standard, but we'll see how they adapt this in the future (or not). Anyway, as I said. Liveable. Been soloing up until this point, and enjoyed the gameplay greatly. I can take my time to look around (DO THIS! THE GAME IS GORGIOUS!!), explore for chests and materials, and stop to listen to the story. Normal up until this point has been a good difficulty, although I am starting to see it might be possible on hard some day. The only reason I'm dying less in normal is because I'm learning the ropes and applying tactics with gear as I should (storm) (a.k.a. gittin' gud). I do want to talk about the bullsh*t first titan fight in the arcanist mission (I'll avoid spoilers). WTF was that. I can deal with the boss having a huge health pool, and, admittedly I was ill-equipped (wrong weapons) for this fight, but come on! 80% of my time was me on fire, undoubtedly the most masochistic status effect for a storm. I was non-stop flailing around like a broken-winged bird, desparately attempting to return to it's most natural habitat (i.e. the sky). And while the flailing taking course, continuously being chased by [REDACTED] which either propagate the burning status effect or set you up for an instant-kill was frustrating. I get difficulty being difficult, and maybe I needed to learn better to simply avoid the titan's attacks so I could stay in the air more easily, but I attempted many a dodge for it's attacks, and nothing dodge-wise seemed to be able to get me out of the attack's burning status to broken arrow range. I hope it's an L2P issue, because otherwise this'll get real old real quick. Furthermore, enjoying tarsis a lot. Good conversations, it's getting a little livelier, shops opening, getting to know people, hearing stories, ... I do want to point out that it is unneccessarily convoluted and for some reason never properly explained that you need to earn crafting and vanity options through the loyalty systems of the factions. I get WHY they did it, and am a proponent in se, but some explanations would have been nice. Also, when or how can I craft specific gear? I'm starting to get PO'd about the fact that I haven't been lucky enough to get all the gear I wanted for my build. And I haven't seen any gear crafting sigils as rewards for loyalty... does anyone know?All in all: I do enjoy the game very much. It certainly has it's flaws (we'll see how they handle QOL with their "live service", but it is fun to play, a fun story so far (I'm starting to get used to the voice over the comms), and I am properly smitten with the chick in the red outfit who gives you missions and who's name escapes my mind right this minute Bottom line, I can't wait to play more, so that's Always a good sign

For those not in early access it is very disappointing that so many people will be done with the game (at least the story part, perhaps not the grinding part) before I even log in on official launch day. You can honestly play how you want to an enjoy the game at your pace. In my 10 hours, I did a lot but still have a ton of stuff left to do in terms of the main mission, contracts, freeplay exploration...you can set it private and solo the missions or just matchmake with 3 randoms and, at least for me, it usually works out pretty well in terms of completing the mission. People who have finished it have blazed through it...play it your way and enjoy it. Those who blazed through probably did it just to spite bioware to see how fast they could go. That's no way to enjoy or play a game proper, and is probably not you.
Im 8 hours in and took everything at my own (solo) pace. I haven't gotten anywhere close to far in the story

If you think playing through some story missions is done with a game like this you might be better off playing another game in the 1st place.

I get WHY they did it, and am a proponent in se, but some explanations would have been nice Because Fort Tarsis forge is closed - times in town are so tough that it’s only really used to maintain a few rickety Javelins. Prospero’s short mission with ember is virtually all about us helping to re-open it (and thus getting him back to business) which is only possible because our early deeds have earned us some notoriety and things in Fort Tarsis (at that point in time a dying frontier town) became busier thanks to it. First you need to get specific ability gear - and then equip and use it during set amount of world events in freeplay or missions. 4 events will unlock basic white blueprint, 8 or 10 will unlock blue one and so on. You can check what’s available under CRAFT tab in the Forge and it’s as simple as having proper mats and holding a button. Each crafted piece will have different, randomly assigned inscriptions (starting from common rarity) so if you want a specific one you may have to craft something multiple times.

If you want to craft certain ability gear, look under the tab for the different Javelins and you will see how far you are with it's progress. There are lots of things hidden in the Challenges, you should look them all up. I would wait with crafting anything above Blue items until you reach level 30. An hour or two of Freeplay gives so much gear (well, I didn't test after Bioware nerfed the random field chests yesterday) that you will certainly find anything you look for.

Im 8 hours in and took everything at my own (solo) pace. I haven't gotten anywhere close to far in the story
People had finished all quests, had full Masterwork gear and some Legendaries on Sunday (3rd day after launch) and were tackling GM3 with various success. That's rushing. Finishing the campaign, side quests, (even all Strongholds) and all of Tarsis dialogues (not skipping a single one) is not rushing, especially if that is what interests you in the game. And you can achieve that in 20 hours or less, depending on difficulty. How is that rushing if that content is exactly that long? Sure, you can go run around in Freeplay for 30 hours, not touch the campaign and then accuse people who did it in less than 30 hours that they "rushed". But you would be wrong. If people aren't interested in anything but the story, will you tell them it's not the game for them because they don't want to grind in SH or Freeplay? And that playing the story is "rushing"? Because that is how it sounds. There is no "proper" way to play. The activities right now are limited. Freeplay, Quickplay, 3 Strongholds (one of which is a rehash) and whatever you have left on the story front. If you like just 1 or 2 of those it's fine. Nothing "improper" in disliking Quickplay or Strongholds for example. In fact I bet that there is barely anyone that likes the rehashed SH. Try it when you can on Normal or Hard. You will be avoiding it after that or leaving before the final boss or sooner. Should I call that "improper" playing? 😂

Look on the bright side. So many high levels will be available to join you in Quickplay (myself included), especially if someone in your group quits from a frustrating encounter. In fact it might be smart to set the difficulty on Hard in order to have a bigger chance to be joined by high level geared people. They will carry you easily and you will receive much more loot and experience. You will also have easier time in Strongholds even with one high level in the group. I tried a Normal Tyrant Mine to see how my Storm (350 gear points at the time) will fare. It felt easier than the Easy mode I did in the demo (and that was super easy).

Don't worry, the story is not good and very short - even if you do all the side quests and wait with the main quests until no more side mission pop up for a while. You get to max level pretty quickly. The fun part starts after you get these annoyances out of the way and start working on you Javelin, grinding for amazing items. I got some cool new masterworks and legendaries yesterday which totally changed some things on the Grandmaster 1 stronghold runs. And people will be better geared by the time you get online - meaning you get good stuff faster when you go on farming runs with better geared people that can carry you through some quick runs. The downside is you have to get to level 30 first before being able to do hiher difficulties which is sad, because playing on hard felt super boring (unless you go solo, but then it sometimes becomes a chore).

That does suck for you. I hope you play with friends, because a lot of randoms have already beat everything so if you match with them they'll be rushing through everything sense they've already seen it. If they run ahead of you, you'll always respawn next to them. You won't be able to take your time. I recommend to play solo if you can, or play with friends who don't mind taking missions slow so you can explore.

Rushed ? Sorry but campaign is so short, that you don't have to rush. Many people already reached lvl 30. Spiderman was also short, many people got the platinum in 3 days. Games not innovative at all, it ripped batman's combat and it was repetitive as hell. Did not see anyoone complain about it.. How come Every bioware game falls into the double standards category? Bought the game yesterday on my xbox one X. it plays damn fine. If it provides me 30+ hours of fun i cannt see all the complaints then being valid. its a product we pay money to get entertained.

The difference is that many many many players reported they are having so much fun with Spiderman. It did right the things it was trying to do. Anthem falls short on several things it tries to do and can't compensate it with something stellar in other areas. The "so much fun" is just not there for enough people. That doesn't mean you personally won't enjoy the game. If you think it's a good purchase, all the better.

A lot of people have been BW fans from the start, who have continued to stick with BW even if they don't like how their games turn out. People don't come here just to shit on BW, they come here to engage with other fans about what BW is up to next. No one is "more entitled" an opinion, is an opinion; it's not fact. I also think it's false that the majority here hated BW last 3 games, run a poll about how many actually liked Andromeda. You'll be surprised that the majority here loved that game, and hated that BW cancelled DLC for it.

It's a rehash. Are you arguing that? And it will be a good thing if we can replay whichever mission we choose, but Bioware probably doesn't want to hurt Quickplay or deal with people that abuse certain missions for quick loot. I actually finished everything in 25 hours. It's my estimate since Origin claims I played LESS! I know how I spread my gaming hours better than Origin for sure. But I had bugs and crashes that forced me to repeat missions, played a good bunch of Strongholds, played with friends on missions I have already done and had to grind bit extra for the Tombs since I didn't get retroactive count for any task. That was on a mix of Normal and Hard. Without issues I would have been done in 20 hours. That's even slow compared to the players that did it all in 10-15 hours.

I don't think you should compare these games. It's true, I enjoyed Spiderman but Anthem's innovation puts in a very different league. The comparison (if there is one) is between a perfectly executed, bug-free, charming but safe (with repetitive content) almost 'last-gen' 'Batman-style' game. Comfort food, basically. And Anthem which is promising something more dynamic, though what there is, is admittedly obscured by bugs and content 'to follow' right now.

Rushed ? Sorry but campaign is so short, that you don't have to rush. Many people already reached lvl 30. Spiderman was also short, many people got the platinum in 3 days. Games not innovative at all, it ripped batman's combat and it was repetitive as hell. Did not see anyoone complain about it.. How come Every bioware game falls into the double standards category? Bought the game yesterday on my xbox one X. it plays damn fine. If it provides me 30+ hours of fun i cannt see all the complaints then being valid. its a product we pay money to get entertained. Is batmab online MP mmo looter shooter?

Was arguing that it was just your assertion. Anyway, my Origin says 45 hours. And while I do not talk to every NPC, still not done everything it seems.

Haven't played by my mates recognize Spiderman as one of the best games they played in 2018. So we're appealing to friends now.
