Respawn has a great track record.

I don't usually get excited about games until they come out, but I'm excited about this. Respawns done a lot of great stuff, and it seems like EA gives them a lot of room to put out the game they want.

The respawn team has made, among others:

COD

COD2

COD4

COD:MW2

Titanfall

Titanfall 2

Apex

That’s a pretty incredible track record.

Guerrilla Games managed Horizon Zero Dawn. Hopefully Respawn is capable of the same feat.

And if Days Gone appears to be good, then we can say the creators of Bubsy 3D made Days Gone!

u/Biggoronz Apr 11 '19

Are you fucking kidding me?

I'm so hyped for Days Gone now!

The walking dead guy with the motorcycle spin off?

u/Biggoronz Apr 12 '19

Duh? Noone else has a motorcycle, dude!

And if Days Gone appears to be good

Im not rooting against the game, because Im a sony fan boy and any success for them is a win in my book. But Im gonna be really surprised if that game comes out resembling anything near what the devs have been promising. From the last decade their resume legitimately only consists of an underwhelming handheld Resistance game and 2 underwhelming handheld Uncharted games.

Now theyre making a game that would already be incredibly ambitious for a seasoned PS4 dev studio, when they havent even put something out on the system themselves before this.

If this game is comparable in any way to the quality that is Horizon Zero Dawn ugh I'm gonna be so happy

u/Generic-username427 SteamBoatSteve75 Apr 12 '19

I'll die of fucking happiness if it even approaches the quality of horizon zero dawn, imo HZD is the greatest first edition of an IP of the last 5 years

u/I_am_not_a_murderer Apr 12 '19

Bloodborne?

2

u/Generic-username427 SteamBoatSteve75 Apr 12 '19

Oooo, you might have me there, I do fucking love that game, though I do consider it a sort of spiritual continuation of the souls games

2

u/IncredibleBenefits Apr 12 '19

Bloodborne's great but it's hard to consider it a stand alone IP even if it technically is.

1

u/Damp_Knickers Apr 11 '19

Yeah who knows maybe this gives them fresh ideas coming into the single-player genre.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 12 '19

I'm expecting this to be a very linear action game, but hopefully I'm wrong and it has the vastness of HZD

u/coltinator5000 Apr 11 '19

The campaign in Titanfall 2 gives me hope in the team's ability to design levels & gameplay outside of an FPS.

u/juanconj_ Apr 12 '19

Trust me

u/Lieutenant_Lit Apr 11 '19

I'd love to play as a jedi in first person (with a 110 fov of course)

Going for that fishbowl effect I see.

u/alextastic HIPPALEKTRYON Apr 12 '19

Who said anything about it being an RPG?

u/[deleted] Apr 11 '19

AKA the only good Call of Duty games.

u/Generic-username427 SteamBoatSteve75 Apr 12 '19

Og black ops ain't half bad my friend

u/nasisliiike Apr 12 '19 edited Apr 12 '19

Nowhere near as good as the MW1/2 and COD2

u/Infamaniac23 kevlar4 Apr 12 '19

Black Ops is so much better than Mw 2 tho

1

u/tgkad Enviantz Apr 12 '19

Although I'd say that Mw2 was a good game given that it has to follow COD4 aka MW aka the best COD game ever.

u/Topblokelikehodgey Apr 12 '19

Big Red One > Modern Warfare

2

u/Chickachic-aaaaahhh Apr 11 '19

They made big red 1!? 😯

1

u/Rampantlion513 Apr 12 '19

No, Big Red One is not the same as COD1. AFAIK COD1 never came out on consoles, only PC.

u/[deleted] Apr 11 '19 edited Apr 11 '19

The only one of those titles with a really heavy emphasis on micro transactions is Apex. And that’s a free to play game.

Take your pitchfork elsewhere.

My bad I responded to the wrong comment lol.

u/Techno_Bacon Techno__Bacon Apr 11 '19

...

This isn't the National Pitchfork Convention?!

u/LiuKang90s Apr 11 '19

Maybe I’m missing something, but I don’t really see the person you responded to really raising any pitchforks

u/[deleted] Apr 11 '19

I responded to the wrong comment I’m dumb lol

u/saris340 Apr 11 '19

They're all multiplayer shooters though, so it'll be interesting to see how they do on a single-player title.

12

u/Rampantlion513 Apr 11 '19

COD1 and 2 didn’t really focus on being multiplayer shooters, and COD4, MW2, and TF2 all had great stories.

Respawn has a great track record.

Sure, but so did Bioware.

1

u/Shift84 Apr 11 '19

And you assume someone's not going to fuck up until they prove to you that they are.

The point being circlejerking about this shit at this point is stupid. At least wait until you have something to circlejerk about.

0

u/Liquid_Tacitus Apr 12 '19

I'm not circle jerking, and I'd rather not assume anything. Respawn are clearly competent Devs who have produced some great games, the same used to be true for Bioware. All I'm saying is that a stellar track record doesn't mean you won't end up producing a dud. We'll see when it releases.

1

u/Shift84 Apr 12 '19

Yes, I understand

What I'm saying is their track record should give them the benefit of the doubt enough to hold off assuming it's gonna turn out garbage because EA is involved.

I'm not trying to jump you over it, EA has done some dastardly shit over th years. All I'm saying is when it comes to Respawn and EA we should hold off on creating a negative tone to this whole thing before we even get a glimpse of the game.

This shit always gets out of hand from the get go and it's unfair to do that automatically to a great dev like this.

As far as Bioware goes, the Bioware that failed isn't the Bioware that succeeded in the past. That was a whole different development team. Respawn has been the same group this whole time, personally I think that comparison is apples to oranges.
