Thread: 2143 Dice Troll?

Honestly the modern day FPS scene is BLAH at best. I look forward to something awesome, like unreal tournament or something...

Ok, they got the majority of their money a year ago, and they are milking the rest of us (me) 15 bucks every few months for extra maps, just to play with our friends, and, in your opinion (it seems), you are saying EA is actually devoting resources to a launched, successful and lucrative license that they are already in the black for,,,,,,Ea would spend, no, DEVOTE, more resources in that direction?

I don't know jack about business, but that seems a bit off-kilter to me.

Or thanos. Or any other end credit you've seen in this generation....

Just saying.....

I actually agree with this. To some extent. I've stated on these forums online gaming is one of the cheapest forms of entertainment today. I still believe games need to be priced and made differently to be honest. Single player games should cost no more than $30. Multi-player games should be $100 or free. But. You better not upsell that $100 game, and you make sure all content is added free or included at the start. Freemium is nice, but I feel it's a flawed system.

Back on topic though, I'm actually excited about hard-line more than 2143.

I was personally confused. What does one have to do with the other? Could someone elaborate?

BF4: $60
CR: $15
SA: $15
NS: $15
DT: $15
FS: $15

You're right you won't pay $100. You'll pay more by the time all the expansions come out.

$135 for the "full" BF4 game.

My point is, they should not be that high in the first place.

And gas should still be $0.79 and a loaf of bread should be $0.35 and.... nothing is as cheap as it used to be. I have $110 invested in the game, I have well over a hundred hours play time. Less than a dollar an hour. As Max pointed out before, not many forms of entertainment are that reasonable.
