As it got busier it became too much work removing the hashtag from posts that quoted the tweets. I've been toying with the idea of doing the same as we've done in the Dragon Age forum - having separate Twitter & Twitter Chat threads. Anthem launch IS around the corner so the Twitter Thread may become busier, and thus it may be time for... Grabbit Den? (but you can always ask me - hey, keep a close eye on hashtags  You're the one with the tweet and news posting speed I can't compete with, so I may as well clean things up a bit when I have time to spare...)

People wouldn't be able to grind that way to level up or gather resources and and actually play with people or by completing content. Again I ask, why does this matter? Why does Bioware care HOW people play their game, as long as they do? Dictating play style is not a way to gain fans, imo. |

Gee … It would be nice (really, really nice) if they would apply the fix to Andromeda … You know, since they deployed the Xbox upgrade via patch, maybe they could do the same for ALL of Andromeda wrt the sound bug. But … very, very happy to hear (  ) that the sound bug might be fixed for Anthem by game release. Here's a totally legit "thanks BioWare" … *fingers crossed* |

Why does Bioware care HOW people play their game, as long as they do? Dictating play style is not a way to gain fans, imo. Because it's a multiplayer game and thus what we do in it can also affect others, so they create mechanisms to encourage co-op and those that attempt to minimize the occurrence of exploitative behavior or grifting?

That definitely seems to be their approach. I have to agree with melbella, though. I wonder if it's mainly because this is their first MP-first co-op game? Some of the "we know what's best" attitude from SP game design carrying over a bit too far? In any case, it's an impossible goal. They'll never be able to keep up with the clever and devious ways MP players come up with to game the system.

It's not like Bioware is unfamiliar with MP though - they did release and still maintain a large MMO and portion fo Austin studio seems to be working on Anthem now. I do agree that fighting with grifters, exploiters and whatnot is a Sisyphean task, but nobody said that they shouldn't try and actively mitigate it, as we know what happens if they won't - and in this case, they just seem to want to try something new (if it won't work, they'll just switch it on, because hey - live service). Plus, people recently have been wondering in a different thread whether there will ever be a game that will discourage mindless killing, especially of wildlife, so I guess it's a way to somewhat discourage that...

Pete Smith @pasmithOK I tested. Private mission, killed one mob, exited. Zero experience, so looks like no experience per kill, only for completing feats (and of course mission exp). Can you confirm, @benirvo ? So i guess leave the wildlife be? Ben Irving @benirvoConfirmed. There are many feats that grant XP, including defeating enemies, using gear, using ultimates, defeating enemies with weak point kills, etc. This system is designed to reward good play and prevents degenerative/exploitative behavior by finding an enemy to kill over and over again
Ah... yes, the grind for some unfortunates unable to conform to "good play". Exploring and surviving simply won't do. No, Bio wants to straight jacket the player.....
I wonder about the percentage of players in the game population that become aware and are able to to play "good" vs the general population. perhaps the Leader Board numbers will reveal this?
BTW, why does Bio care about how one plays ? This appears to punish the solo player.

As a further thank you, all four javelins are available now in the Forge for players who have played in this weekend’s demo. Won’t get a chance to jump in? They will be waiting for VIP participants next weekend!
Log out and back in to see them if you’re in game.

Though I wonder if microtransactions in the main game = love service,,,, 'cause there are none in the demo or at least no one has mentioned them.
