For me gunplay is the most important, if the matches are smooth, reactive, fun and varied. Levels were decent enough for good gameplay.
Theres too many shooters with subpar controls. And theres my personal preference to bungie esk FPS.

Content, “progression”, and no campaign were the biggest issues in my opinion. Progression less so for myself

Most reviewers complained about content per cost and that gameplay was decent.
Isn't "gunplay" just how the guns feel to aim and shoot?

Awesome!!! Too many people as usual were/are making too much of a few bad dialogue scenes yet didn't prevent these same people from raving about Spider Man 2 which had a gay quest in it and pure DEI/woke as others would call it plus the quest itself was bad. Didn't prevent me and others from giving the game a 9.0/10 overall though.

Too many people shit on games for the most retarded mother fucking reasons and even worse, they're not even playing the game so their opinion is void due to not having any validity to it whatsoever and even worse are those that will shit on games that they have no interest in playing nor will ever play which makes no logical sense because if you're wasting the time this way then that tells me you have nothing to play at all.

I look at a game like TLOUP2 which is excellent across the board except for the shitty story line, horrible ending, bad characters some of which who are no longer likable and they turned Joel into a retarded mother fucking pussy. You gotta be kidding me. Yet, people still praise the fuck out of it. Here's why - when someone bitches about shit regardless of what it is, if it's "their favorite" all the same arguments and complaints don't exist but the moment they have no interest in, they shit on it constantly. SMFH

I'm not playing DAV because it's shite. The characters look shite, the premise is shite, the combat looks shite. I don't need to play the game to know it will be shite.
If the game wasn't shite, I would have interest in playing it. I don't. Why? Because the game is shite.

You can't say the game is shit because you haven't played it. All you're going by is what others who hate the game are saying because it validates your own opinion. You're going based on how it "looks" which isn't the same thing as actually playing the game yourself. I have had plenty of games that looked bad on video and when I played them, were great and many others that looked great but were bad when I played them. Too many people always want to have their uniformed opinions based on other people's opinions because instead of actually playing the game themselves and form their own opinion, they would much rather just be negative and best way to do that is by using someone else's negative opinion as if it's their own even though it can never be their own because they didn't play the game.

You not wanting to play the game is perfectly fine as it's your choice and decision but to shit on it repeatedly with no proof, no facts and no evidence makes no sense. You're being negative (which has been a huge fucking trend on this forum regardless of what the topic is) just for the sake of being negative.

Handles nice, but not fun or exciting to drive.
That is exactly the point I made... we don't know.
Because the car was only in pink color most people didn't try to see if it was fun.
In Concord case because the game was so much talked as failed by influences and load guys on social media most didn't even take the time to try it.

Holy word salad batman. I have a functioning brain that takes in information, it processes it then draws a conclusion. That conclusion is, it's shite.
Tell me though, how did you know this game was going to be good before you bought it? All you had to go on was looks and the thoughts of others...

I have proof, facts and evidence that this game is indeed, totally shite.
I'm not negative, I'm realistic and not loving in a unicorn fairy land where any slop I get shovelled down my gullet is magic pixie dust.

If this forum is trending negative, it's because the reality is that gaming has turned negative. Hint and spoiler alert: it has. Fact.

What's point in their ea launcher then 🤣
As a PC gamer, it kinda sucks, yeah.

Basically, you buy the game on Steam, but it launches from your computer through the EA launcher. Their launcher app used to be Origin (I haven't played any since they released their "new" launcher), but Origin annoyed me constantly with crashes, and background resource utilization. FYI, Ubisoft does the same thing.

These launchers mostly serve as an effort to get you to buy DLC directly from EA, via skins, etc. When players make purchases directly from the EA App, the publisher doesn't have to pay a sales cut to Steam.

The game looks good and the combat/gameplay looked good but I didn't know that it would play good until yesterday when I started playing it. Like I said, there's been plenty of games that looked great to me when watching them but playing them, not so much and vice versa. You won't know for certain until you play the game yourself. I don't go based on reviews or other people's opinions because im not them.

Sad but true.

Who would you be loving if you were in a unicorn fairy land? The unicorns, or the fairies?

Who does the shoveling in this land, as the unicorns presumably can't wield a shovel, and the size requirements of fairies and pixies would suggest an insufficient quantity of slop relative to the human body?

Do the pixies give up this magic dust willingly, or is there a dark lore surrounding a war between fairies and pixies?

You are absolutely right man! However you're definitely wasting your time with rationality on this forum.

We saw the people who bought the pink car, stopped driving it unbelievably quickly.

You have to look at the RATE of player drop off on Steam. Ignore the overall numbers. On the first weekend Concord had 780 concurrent players. By the 2nd weekend, Concord had a high of 230 concurrent players. That is horrendous player retention.

That's not a woke, DEI, toxic branding issue. That's a "this game is boring to play" issue.

Reviews mostly said the gameplay was good. People who played it generally liked it. People I talk and played online liked it.

The game barely got touched because of this and the price for a PVP.

No1 is gonna try a game where everyone is complaining about it, even before it released. They choose there side, place there bets and wouldnt budge

There are 853 reviews on Steam.
593 positive.
264 negative.

Imagine if the loud hater guys didn’t rate it bad to make a point social media.

The drop in Steam were because they couldn’t find games because people where not even giving a chance to the game.

If people that loved the game will drop it if you had 5 minutes queues like you had on PC.
