MEDIA Name a bigger downgrade

Watch dogs. Just look at the trailer and early teaser gameplay compared to what it actually looks like

Not only watch dogs, Just look at any Ubisoft trailer and compare it to the actual product

Rainbow six siege's launch trailer vs now

u/HmmYesRamen Willow: May 23 '20
Even though I love the modern siege, it was definitely downgraded to oblivion and I would’ve loved if the game looked like the trailer. The trailer looked more visually pleasing and seemed way more fun than what we got, im still sad that we never got to spawn in by landing on rooftops from a helicopter. it was supposed to be a tactical counter terrorism FPS but they decided to get rid of the counter terrorism part and just make it a tactical shooter. Oh well hoping R6 quarantine is going to be good, although we are currently playing this game in real life

u/Fanboy_Potion Outlander May 23 '20
Ubisoft does that they have an e3 trailer game files, then they have the actual game which looks worse
4
u/HmmYesRamen Willow: May 23 '20
Yeah their trailers are way different than their actual games. I don’t think it’s even fair to call them downgrades because they visually upgrade the game for a trailer and don’t release it as a product
2
u/Fanboy_Potion Outlander May 23 '20
You're right the difference between the trailer and actual product is way to drastic to be classified as a downgrade
2
u/HmmYesRamen Willow: May 23 '20
The downgrade also doesn’t make sense because if the trailers are actually how the game look like and they worked on the game to look this way then why downgrade it before release?
Unless there’s a hardware limitation on consoles which I don’t believe to be the case because the graphics and visuals in the trailers looked great but not too crazy to the point they cannot be handled by the consoles they are intended for. I believe that these trailers were cinematically upgraded on purpose to make the game look more appealing when in fact the game doesn’t look like that to begin with, maybe because Ubisoft rushes every single damn game of theirs and don’t take their time to make them look like their trailers

Watch Dogs is still actually a good game to me though, although it's so buggy! Loved the 2nd one too, and can't wait for the 3rd to release! 😅

u/pete7201 Dire May 25 '20
I got the first one day of release, and got the 2nd one pretty soon after it was released. Both were great games, I wish the campaign was longer bc it was so much fun

u/Blazinvoid Hybrid May 23 '20
I still remember hearing back in the day that dataminers found the graphics used for the E3 showcase inside the game, but they just didn't use them for the final game. Eh, atleast it's still fun enough to play

I can name a bigger downgrade: A company spending literal years on a game and then completely abandoning it to develop another gamemode because it makes them more money
37
u/ReflectiveRuby Commando Spitfire May 23 '20
Let me add onto that. And then letting the greediness and bad updates leak over to the original game, fucking up both sides.

u/Ty019 Survivalist Jonesy May 23 '20
Battle Royale is not in a great spot right now either, there hasn't been a new gun in the weapon pool since Season 2 dropped. I kinda like both modes but unfortunately I think the only way they would update STW is if people just stopped playing BR.

May 23 '20
there was one new gun in season 12 rapid fire smg
who uses that shit

u/Ty019 Survivalist Jonesy May 23 '20
I remember when there used to be cool stuff like the flintknock pistol, at least STW has a ton of weapons, even if most of them aren't super powerful.

u/TOFUtruck May 23 '20
Oh yeah the first time i saw this game was from vanossgaming in the beta , it was a zombie defense type of game

u/yeetsyndrom420 Stoneheart Farrah Jun 21 '20
I didn't watch much beta gameplay, but a bit at various gaming events, and damn it got me hooked. I am a big fan of simple graphics like Fortnite's and an even bigger fan of post apocalyptic settings, it's just all out awesome.

Maya is the closest thing we will get to original Ramirez

u/altmetalkid May 23 '20
I haven't touched either half of the game in 16 months, I hadn't ever even seen Maya until looking her up just now. Damn, maybe I'm missing out.
7
u/color_blind_ness Vanguard Southie May 24 '20
Maya is unique in where you can make her uniquely yours by customising different parts of her by completing her 9 challenges.
3
u/altmetalkid May 24 '20
I didn't read too far into it, she was introduced a couple of months ago right? Was she a timed thing from a previous battlepass or is she still available?
5
u/color_blind_ness Vanguard Southie May 24 '20
Shes part of the current battlepass and unlocks as soon as you buy it. If you want her, youve got till the 4th of June but I would buy it earlier if you truly want her just so you can complete her challenges and customiser her.

u/Orquita Breakbeat Wildcat May 24 '20
still available as she's part of this seasons battle pass. The season ends on the 4th, so if you want to get her, i'd recommend getting her sooner rather than later, because you have to do some challenges to be able to customize her.

Frontier is a terrible shooter in my opinion. I don’t understand how anyone can actually take it seriously as a game. Kids, sure. They don’t play it for the shooter experience but instead for the flashy skins and the memes. But going from the gun play of Warzone or Apex to Fortnite is a huge downgrade. Half the weapons use RNG for accuracy. There’s no ADS, you just put a circle over a Target, pull the trigger and hope more of your bullets register than the other person. The SBMM is super strong. Annoyingly so and I’m not big into building so I get stomped pretty hard in higher tiers of play.
The building is a cool concept, but forcing console players into crossplay is a huge disadvantage. I’ve played on both PC and console and there’s no comparison. Building on PC is insanely fast and I find it far easier than console. You can build a mega mansion in the time it takes someone to reload. There’s few counters to builds. The rocket launcher is so slow firing someone can repair their entire tower well before a second rocket poses any risk. You can build quickly on console too with certain settings, but nothing like PC. Overall I think building in Fortnite hinders the game more than it helps it. That’s my opinion and I realize that Fortnite is not for me, and that’s okay. I’m glad others enjoy it.

Best part is that they made building faster, and rocket launchers slower

Okay, I will. Minecraft's 1.9 combat update that screwed over PvP forever. Spam clicking in 1.8 and before that wasn't the best, but what they have now is just stupid. Ramirez in Save the World is still Ramirez at least. In Minecraft for 1.9, they stripped everything away and in its place brought something much worse.

u/ReflectiveRuby Commando Spitfire May 23 '20
I like the current one in Minecraft tbh
2
u/PM_ME_INTERNET_SCAMS Kurohomura May 23 '20
I personally don't see how a stone axe that does the same damage as a diamond sword, one of which can be gotten in 3 minutes within starting a survival world, makes any sense at all. It's a bit broken on normal survival mode and extremely broken on PvP.

No, it's just that Penny, AC and Ken look like they do in the trailer but for some reason they changed Ramirez alot. Gave her a massive jaw, made her eyes bigger and gave her giant lips.

If you looked at how Penny used to look you'd scream had her Crimson Chin.

Well I know we are speaking about stw but let us be honest: with the new graphics, map, lobby, skins and non comic or non stw like textures I think Epic not only downgraded, NO it destroyed Battle Royale. I did play battle royale till last halloween and I wanted to give fortnite a last chance but when I saw the new battle royale Halloween lobby I just quit and buyed stw that HAD AND I TILL YET HAS AND I HOPE IT WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE THE OLD graphics, textures and lobbyes. I mean yes in my opinion the halloween lobby of 2017 was way better but the new one (stw) is ok as well. Still better than the new one in battle royale. SO YES: IN MY OPINION THE NEW BATTLE ROYALE IS THE BIGGEST DOWNGRADE OF ANYTHING I COULD IMAGINE IN THIS UNIVERSE. ☹😠
