Steam users are reviewbombing the game due to the requirement to create an EGS Account to play the game online.
>>683690157good news actually total epic deathtotal pajeet death
Was it there before? If so, then it's stupid to review bomb. If it was only added after launch - then it's a fraud and review bombing is not enough, and legal action should be taken.
>>683690314D3 is damage controlling by mentioning the EGS requirement only hours after release, and not before.http://web.archive.org/web/20240723024627/https://store.steampowered.com/app/2291060/EARTH_DEFENSE_FORCE_6/https://steamdb.info/app/2291060/history/
That's what you get for adding vtumors.
>>683690157EDF might need an EDF
The requirement was NOT there before launch. So i see why people are pissed.I'm glad about this backlash since it'll go on discount sooner and then i'll pick it up.
Wow japanese fans are vocal about the new EDF and they are not happy
>>683690157HAHAHAHAHA
>>683690157Just create an account then, what's the issue? Use a burner mail if you're some tinfoil retard thinking china is spying on you or something
>>683691998You don't have to give them an e-mail address, you just press a button and it generates a pseudo account for you
>>683690157KEK enjoy your /vt/umors steamies :)
>>683690340Great now even smaller game publishers try to fuck you over as much possible
Can Steam just take away ratings from the Chinese already, they always shit on Japanese games like this and boost their own trash or Kslop like Lies of Penis
>>683690314it wasnt. I checked 2-3 hours ago. They just added it now
>Talk shit about helldivers 2 when the account linking drama happened>has vtumors(MAJOR red flag)>now thisyou faggots deserve it
>>683690157Off to a great start EDFkeks. Come back to Helldivers it will outlive this cheap looking asset flip in the end.
>>683690157Kill yourself, you waste of fucking oxygen.
>>683690314Of course not. It's exactly why people are only talking about it now.
>>683692676>>Talk shit about helldivers 2 when the account linking drama happenedSauce?

>>683691998I don't want to, thus you're not getting my money.
>>683690314if it was there then the review would be not negative. Are you really surprised that people dont like to get fucked over
>>683690157I hate epic just as much as the next guy but those people have to be kidding me if just using epic online services is a reason not to buy this gameI bet they use gmail and voice recognition on their phones with no concerns.
>>683690157remember when EDF fags were all so smug about Helldivers dying?LolLmao
>>683692884I ain’t clicking that shit
english VA is killing my enjoyment of the game
>>683692715Have the swedecucks finally stop nerfing the fun out of the game and fix the Eruptor yet?
>>683693064Made for getting guro'd by bugs.
>>683693046I don’t think it’s a big deal but I’ve come to realize that gamers acting unhinged is entirely to my own benefit so I join and encourage the outrage mob
>>683690157I'm glad you told me it was sad news, I wouldn't know how to feel otherwise.
I dodged a bullet. I would be mad as fuck if I had bought the game.
>>683692715EDF never nerfed weapons after release unlike HD2. I also remember it crashing frequently
there will never be a game to fill the gap that HD2 did for 2-3 months
>>683693597Unfortunately you aren't wrong. Helldivers release was something magical. Peak gameplay when it was new and fresh, peak community, then everything changed when swedecuck autism struck because we weren't playing the game how they intended. The Eruptor is still unusable dogshit.
>>683690157LMAO this could've replaced Helldivers but of course the japs are cluelessly retarded as usual
Epic Online Services is basically THE go-to for setting up multiplayer, cross-play, etc. If these people think developers are going to stop using EOS, and stop using Unreal Engine, they are absolutely retarded. I guarantee none of these gibbering morons even know what EOS is.I see them saying, "Remove the EOS requirement to play online". Fucking HOW? What do you slack-jawed fuckwits think EOS does?Sometimes, I swear, on the Steam forums it feels like I'm surrounded by genuine retards. Just the lowest grade of absolutely basement-bottom retard.
>>683692884thanks anon was fun playing with randoms in edf5 MP so looking foward to it again
>>683693848simply amazing. they just fumbled such an easy, perfect opportunity to be big.
>>683690157>Steam users are reviewbombing the game due to the requirement to create an EGS Account to play the game online.and they didn't mention this AT ALL that an EGS account was required
after what happened to helldivers 2 and all the shilling here, i almost bought this. glad i didn't
>>683694028>and they didn't mention this AT ALL that an EGS account was requiredYou don't create an EGS account, though. You link your Steam account to EOS. I'm puzzled that some people don't understand what EOS is, and I'm puzzled why people keep saying EGS. They're completely different.
>>683693891reddit-man here to save the day
>>683693848>HD2 shot itself in the foot, now is slowly bleeding to death>EDF6 could've gone for the jugular>slices its own throat insteadWhat the fuck is going on with many vidya publishers/developers this year?
>>683694151I'm starting to think it's actual sabotage.
>>683690157Edpsister not like this, this suppose to be helldiver killerNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
>>683693891make it optional
>>683692424>smaller game publishers>$60 + $30 of DLCs on top of itThey are just your regular jews.
>>683694151>>683694235No. the japs are that clueless. they have 0 global awareness (for the better or worse). so they just blindly listened to their "consultants" or whoever is the highest bidder for quick money, in this case, EGS.
>>683694421>make it optionalHow do you make the entire architecture that runs the multiplayer "optional"?
>>683690157it requires EOS, not EGSepic online services is a feature in unreal engine that enables crossplay multiplayer.
>>683694519Everyone is using EOS, though. Not just Japan. There's no reason to use Steamworks anymore because firstly it sucks and secondly it doesn't handle crossplatform stuff at all.
>>683694118well it sure as hell reads like i need to make an account
>>683694598EOS is a framework of APIs for practically everything to do with online. Leaderboards? That's EOS. Multiplayer? EOS. Anti-cheat is a component of EOS. It is the only real choice for making a game like this.
>>683694673
>>683694598>>683694609Then what's the issue here???
>>683694545by using the same architecture that worked perfectly fine for all the other games.
>>683690157already a thread
>>683694751people saw the epic account thing and got scared. epic doesn't give a fuck if you actually make an account with an email or not. it was actually a hassle because i had to try attaching my nephew's epic account to our switch, but the second you open fortnite without doing that first, it just autogenerates an account, making it a real hassle to un-attach that account from the switch to account an already existing one.
>>683690157What reaction did they expect?
>>683690157>do shit>get bad reviews"reviewbombing" is a word without meaning, implying some malicious intent and bad faith for creating negative reviews as deflection, even though the customers who make those negative reviews bought the game and just wanted to play it. Also it's just silly, for so many years you didn't need extra accounts with some other service for stuff like crossplay, but now every other game suddenly needs it and conveniently with services everyone wants to avoid by the biggest shitter companies in existence. I somehow doubt we started moving back in time and things just got shittier than they were years ago for no reason.
>>683694747CREATE ACCOUNTvery heavily implies creating an account you dumb fucking idiot. holy shit. how the fuck your parents didn't decide to back the car over your infant skull is a fucking mystery of the universe.
Reminder.You cant launch pirated copy without ESG account.
>itt retards who have no idea how complicated it is to implement cross platform multiplayer for a game like this
>>683695016PIRATEGODS WIN ONCE AGAIN
>>683694917>CREATE ACCOUNTI hate to say this, but do people not understand what that button does? I know a lot of Steam users are children, but what it does is link your steam account to EOS. You need something to link to EOS (your Steam account) and it needs your permission to do that.People would be screaming and crying if they were uploading your steam account IDs to Epic without asking.
>>683690314https://steamdb.info/app/2291060/history/Nope. They added the EOS requirement a few hours ago.
>>683694609>>683695039But there's no cross-platform in this game.
Its not a review bomb its just negative reviews. Stop using this fucking corpospeak.
>>683694917so this page pops up. says you need to create an account to continue. it gives you a big ol' button that says create account.And, somehow, you can't understand why people are assuming this means creating an account? seriously? this is beyond your comprehension?
>>683690157How did this happen twice in a year to the same "genre" of game from different companies?It's such a specific thing that you'd think this is a once in a blue moon occurrence.
>>683690157this looks like a shit helldivers clone pass
>>683695416Because the genre they're in is heavily multiplayer-focused, and EOS is extremely commonly used for crossplay
>>683695150Nah, it's a reviewbomb, because the people leaving negative reviews are still getting their friends to buy the game and play it with them actively even while writing the reviews. To flag a game as "not recommended" while recommending it to all of your friends is textbook definition review bomb.Either way, EDF 6 already peaked at almost 3 times the EDF 5 peak and is still climbing, so it's not very effective.
>>683695547EDF5 works perfectly fine without it.
>>683690314LAWYER UP GAMERS
>>683695127Yes there is. PS4/PS5/Steam/EGS (eventually).
>NOOOO DON'T FORCE ME TO TAKE AN ACCOUNT IT TAKES 10 SECONDS!!!>being forced to install a DRM platform that needs to be on at all time that collects and sells my data, SIGN ME IN!
>>683695416>twice in a yearEDF 6 released 2 years ago and is playable in all regions, and even without an account in single player or couch coop.
>>683694751People saw epic and think they have to install the ebin game store and got mad.There was an article months ago about this shit but no one saw it. It wouldn't be this bad if they put that before the game released.
>have to create an epic account>at this point I might as well get Alan Wake 2
>>683695663who are you quoting
>>683691630Please tell me more?
>>683695736It installs it's services though together with game.
>>683692884You still need to install EOS to make it functional. It's no good.
>>683695663i like how your pussy ass is complaining people finally stand up to bullshit practices if anything they need to do this more and on bigger games go cry to twitter with the other faggits
>>683690314>If so, then it's stupid to review bomblol
>>683695897So I guess you're also mad they force you to install and use steam to play the game?
>>683690157>two years old game>$60 + taxes + tip + DLC>Need an Epic Account to play onlineWhat a load of fucking shit
>>683695663>NOOOO DON'T FORCE ME TO TAKE AN ACCOUNT IT TAKES 10 SECONDS!!!
>>683695967EDF5 was also $60 when it launched and there wasn't as much shitposting compared to this one. I blame that helldivers like article.
It's more like a dummy profile, you can't actually log into the account or do anything with it, and it's assigned a random AdjectiveNoun#### username on Epic's side. All it does is relay your relevant Steam data to Epic's online infrastructure, has nothing to do with EGS.
Do you need Steam to buy and play the game?
>>683695736Nigger, it installs epic online services when you launch through first time set up and won't launch without it.
>>683692929>if it was there then the review would be not negativeWrong.
>>683690485this vtubers and their loser simp fans are the worst part of the anime fandom + trannies + lefties faggots. It is a perfect encapsulation of everything wrong with society nowadays
Valve drones are the biggest cocksuckers in this entire industry. I've never seen people so willing to shackle themselves to a corporation like this.
>>683696229t. Tim Sweeney
>>683696149Holy fuck THE Epic Services!? This is like a gamer genocide
>>683693276nope

>>683696229Where is Unreal Tournament 4 ?
>>683693127It gets better later, the game is dual (quad actually) audio though, set it to JP if it bothers you that much
>>683696296Yes, i don't want it on my pc.
>>683690157>Game has something people dislike >Give bad review because of it>NOOOOOO STOP REVIEW BOMBING AAAAAAACKkysDeath to all games that make you open another launcher or another account after already launching it from some shitfuck Helldivers for trying it and fuck EDF too
>>683696229pc only gamers are always the most pathetic bunch
>>683696135Anyone?
>>683693046The problem was they didn't even announce this on release day. They had to be forced to admit hours after
>>683694751The login requirement, plenty of games use epic online services without it
>>683696296Yeah, sorry I prefer publishers being transparent about third party software and helping consumers be informed since I like to keep chinkware off my computer. Glad to know you suck corpo cock though.
noone is posting clips, this alone shows anyone who defends it are shitposting, i had a webm collection an hour in edf 5 release
>>683696434>since I like to keep chinkware off my computer. Glad to know you suck corpo cock though.But you have problem with Steam? Valve the company that outright works with SBI and the CCP is fine?
>>683696468I literally CAN"T install EoS. Shit is just stuck at Dependencies installation.Is my PC actively saving me from Tim's grasp?
>>683696468>post screenshots>lmao this guy spend $60 for this look at him and laughI can see this shit happening with the absolute state of the game
>>683695902this. what a fucking cuck. even if they announced it when the game was announced, still worthy of review bombing. fuck epic pajeets
>>683692676>slopdivers STILL malding about getting cucked by SnoyYou truly deserve the shit that happened to your game. Eiffel Towered by the balance team and the publisher lol
>>683696135>>683696421Can someone answer me?
>>683696550>the company that outright works with SBI and the CCPThat's Epic.
>>683692715>live service game that’s been mismanaged by both the devs and publisher will outlive a single player gameLOLOLOL wanna run back to your trooncord and workshop that shitpost?
>>683696434You mean like Steam?
>>683693891kys
>>683696653???????
Why don't mods respond to reports against absolutely blatant organized discord raid activity against this game's threads? literally EVERY SINGLE thread since the beginning of this week has been attacked by faggots spewing the same tired baits and doomposts, and now they're literally flooding the threads with waves of flamewar baiting and shitpostingThe absolute fucking state of this site
>>683690157You think that's bad? Even they pirated copy requires you to install epic services to play it
>>683693046I already have an account from who knows when, but they didn’t post the fact that epic is REQUIRED for multiplayer on their store page, so everyone who preordered it and everyone who bought it within the first few hours was deceived, and that’s why they are mad.
>>683696801Maybe some slavs will crack it.
>>683695984this but unironically
Ok but what is wrong with epic services?
>>683696758>everyone who disagrees with me is a discord troon>everyone who criticize my goyslop is a discord troon
>>683696639no
>>683696927Ummmmmmmmm uuhhhhhhhhhhhj
After looking into this it seems I’ve already played a lot of games that use EOS on Steam, only they didn’t say anything about it and this one does
>>683696758>anyone disagreeing with me clearly is involved with the boogeyman I conjured up this weekGo back to Ieddit.
>EDF6 will surely fill the void Helldivers 2 left after going through the PSN account drama>EDF6 makes a stupid decision that leads to its own controversy that will get them review bombed for the exact same reason.STOP. MAKING. PEOPLE. REGISTER. FOR. ACCOUNTS. FOR. OTHER. PLATFORMS. WHEN. THEY. BOUGHT. THE. GAME. ON. STEAM.Is it really that hard? Steam should factually crack down on developers and publishers pulling this shit. If you buy a game on Steam, it should not require a third party account. You don't go on EGS, buy a game, then be told you need to install Steam services and register a Steam account.
>>683690157Name me one game that required players to sign up for a third party account that was well recieved by players.
>>683696981>uh turns out I already had aids so I dunno why everyone is warning me about catching aids
>>683696927its fucking shit, and Tim killed UT, I fucking hate Tim and Epic.
>>683694257>helldiver killerHelldivers killed itself and hundreds of thousands of former players already fucked off back to various games, like Starship Troopers: Extermination, EDF 5, and even fucking XCOM. No need to kill that which is already dead bud
>>683696927Why do I need epic services for a game on steam what do I gain from this
>>683694917This probably isn't no different than other EOS games. They don't ask you to create an Epic account because they create a psuedo one for you automatically. Just hiding that popup, and putting it in the options if someone really wanted to login to their EGS account, would have prevented 95% of all the bitching. But japs gotta be retarded like always
>tfw linuxits over
>don't have any friends>only play offlineI think I'll be OK
>>683690157That is what happens when they try to rip off Helldivers soo badly
>>683697105>They don't ask you to create an Epic account because they create a psuedo one for you automaticallyI don't believe you.
>>683696758yes anoneveryone who disagrees with you is a fedora cuck incel redditor discord tranny indian woman schizophrenic autistdid I miss any?
>>683697017From what i understand they put it in for PS4/PS5 crossplay when it was released on consoles first.
Back in my day we had to drive an hour to even buy a game. Now these zoomers are throwing a temper tantrum for having to spend 2 minutes creating an account somewhere.
>>683694609>everyone is using EGSyeah fortnite kids
>>683696956So I guess people are also mad you are forced to use Steam to play this?
>>683697105There was an article saying this months ago. If only they put it up in the store page.https://dev.epicgames.com/en-US/news/in-less-than-a-month-how-earth-defense-force-6-added-crossplay-by-adopting-epic-online-services
>>683696629same goes for you, enjoy your vtumor shit and seanigger fanbase, with the extra jeets shilling EGS
>>683697105or better yet, let people use their favorite API.>do you want to crossplay with other consoles, you will have to use the Epic Shit Services>do you want local MP, just use LAN>do you want to play with other steam users, use SteamworksIts not fucking difficult to implement.
>>683697386This! Let me play and buy this game without using Steam
>>683692884https://cdn1.filehaus.su/files/1721903998_68427/EDF6_Fix_Repair_Steam_Generic.rarOnline Fix for EDF6, password is "online-fix.me"Paste it to your EDF6 directory, launch LaunchGame.exe as admin (while having steam opened), you will have white screen, minimize the game and browser will open, log in to your Epic Account and allow the account for access to the game. Yes you can play with legit players and players on consoles. Enjoy.If you have error about missing files, install epic online services in the game folder.
>>683696093Slopdiver Trooncord has been seething about EDF ever since their dogshit game died
>>683697221Back in your day you didn't need an account to play co-op either.
>>683693276Yep.They buffed the rifles,fixed the spear and made more stratagems viable.The Eruptor is good>>683696712Helldivers will still be fine when EDF copypaste number 10 launch and be ignored like any other reused asset garbage slop.
>EDF6 will fail because people think EOS and EGS are the same thingToo bad for the Japs. It’s funny that the negative reaction is because they inform you of it while most games do it invisibly. If you’ve played Elden Ring or Risk of Rain 2 or half the shit around then your Steam was already linked to EOS.
>refunded my copy and a gifted copy for a friend who is not interested due to EGS >another friend refunded their copyI bought 5 full price despite knowing it was barely different and shouldn't have costed that much. I did the same with 6 but as soon as I saw EGS shit start launching and installing I just force closed. At least I have some money I can spend on something else.
Damn, discordnigger doomposters must be really mad that the game isn't flopping like they hoped if that's the best they can come with.
>>683697386The thing is, Epic *requires* crossplay if you want to sell it on EGS. I know there are services like PlayFab, but they aren't free like EOS. Valve should update Steamworks to accommodate cross platform play so we don't have to deal with this shit. I know it technically already has it, but it isn't as well documented as EOS.
glow spear is pretty cool as are the shields
>>683693046The problem is that the game proudly demands you to make an Ebin Games account, this was only communicated after the fact and the reaction from the publisher was "oh yeah oops we forgot to mention but you HAVE to sign up to Timmy Tencent to play oops our bad lmao". They could've implemented the EOS framework in a billion different ways that are as unobtrusive as possible, but they deliberately chose the one that is guaranteed to piss people off.
>>683695663>NOOOO DON'T FORCE ME TO TAKE AN ACCOUNTYeah, exactly. Don't.
>>683697275yeah, turns out your average gamer doesn't casually browse epics dev blog.
>>683697726>It’s funny that the negative reaction is because they inform youIt wasn't there on launch. It was only added a few hours ago.
>>683697287>tranny is terrified of vtubers Many such cases!
Umm, yeah. I'm going to need you to post WebM's of your online EDF 6 multiplayer gameplay sessions. I mean, if you claim that you aren't bothered by the obligatory epic signup for online multiplayer, I have to assume that you actually purchased EDF 6, agreed with the EULA, and are playing EDF online.C'mon, go on you Epic shills, post those EDF6 online multiplayer WebM's already..
>>683696296i don't install any unity games because it installs Unity Gaming Services. literally unacceptable
>>683690157>requirement to create an EGS Account to play the game online.HAHAHAHAHAHA
>game already have over twice the amount of max players that EDF5 hadTim keeps winning baby
https://dev.epicgames.com/docs/epic-account-services/getting-started>If you use only EOS Game Services in your game, you do not require EOS Epic Account Services. You only need to use EOS Epic Account Services if you want your players to connect to your game using their Epic Games accounts so they can use services such as crossplay, friends, player presence, and the social overlay.Sandlot could have just not made the account requirement and nobody would have noticed.
>>683690157not making an epic account and never will. cope, seethe, do what you must
>>683697564Mirror of the fix:https://hidan.sh/pcutcf1h74dnhttps://gofile.io/d/id20rOhttps://small.fileditchstuff.me/s13/sOKnctnMAGKhPghvbij.rar
>>683697946No webm but I got this
>>683697726EOS isn't the problem. It does provide much-requested functionality that Steamworks has failed to implement so far. The problem will always be not wanting to become a statistic that Epic can use to do more anti-consumer shit with their store
Androids/machine men are actually kinda creepy as far as EDF enemies go.
>It only takes a few minutes to sign up chud!Does signing up actually make the game better for me specifically? Do I get anything beneficial out of it?
>>683697946KEK, they won't. I guarantee you. None of these epic shills actually purchased earth defense force 6.
/v/dfpw: rage
>>683697903Exactly. And sandlot never mentioned it anywhere on the steam page
>>683697679>live service game with 14k concurrent playersTo be fair, that’s not too ba-Dropped from 460k concurrent down to 14k concurrentAh, I’m sure Arrowhead will be able to subsist off of a grand total of 200 concurrent players by the time EDF 7 is announced as in development LMAO.
>>683697914>vtumor seanigger calling anyone else trannyL M A OMAO
>>683690157>put the game on steam>required to make an account for a direct competitorPlease. Can the Epic game store just fucking die already? It's not going to complete with steam. It's never going to be successful. Stop bribing developers with your mountains of Fortnite money.
>>683698121see >>683698001
>>683697192just install a game like fortnite onto your switch or playstation and open it. you'll find out you now have an epic account named something like frog39543 attached to your console.
>>683695107Then why doesn't it say "continue without signing in" and have a little tooltip to explain that it creates an internal ID only used for EOS purposes? That would've avoided like 99% of the entire fucking issue, but instead they had to set up the splash page to talk about having to sign in.
I preordered this game (a lesson to be learned there) and was never notified that it would require a 3rd party account. Previous game didn't require it.To be notified of this Epic Online requirement right after release is fraud. I have no stance on if Epic is spyware, but this behavior is by definition false advertising. I won't buy this game until this requirement is removed, and if it is never removed, I'm not going to play a legit purchased game.And no still not going to install kernel level anticheat to play Slopdivers and have a max of 10 bugs on screen at a time. Kys shills.
>>683698189Because the devs are Japanese people who had no idea anyone would care
>EDF 6 current player count 17k>HD2 current player count 14kOOF. Troondiver bros… I thought… we shitposted… hard enough
Guess I'll refund and pirate it
>supporting SBI and CCP?this is fine>taking 10sec to create an accountTHIS IS LITERALLY 1984!!!
>>683697726>Already twice as many concurents as EDF5's peak during daytime hoursDoom shitposters lost
>>683697894It links steam for online. You don’t need to login anywhere, maybe you are just whining for whining’s sake
>>683698187I don't WANT an Epic account linked to my other shit you retard. That's the crux of the issue.
>>683698120You get an extra overlay running in parallel with the game, no, you can't disable it, but why would you want to?
>>683698274Japs are naive enough to think western players are not retarded corporate cultists
>>683698301What does the account provide the customer?
>you need to sign up on a pirated cracked copy>you literally cannot play without internetamazing
>>683694687>It is the only real choice for making a game like this.If only there was another big company that people liked and also had a developer stack like this
if i ever bought a game on EGS and it made me log on to Steam id be equally pissedjust the idea of launching a service when youre already on a service is bullshit
>>683698189The pre-order bonus was shit, so I didn't have a problem refunding it just to join the bandwagon. The more Epic hate, the better
>>683698438Same thing Steam does, nothing.
>>683698409If you played ANY of these games then you already linked up to Epichttps://steamdb.info/instantsearch/?refinementList%5Btechnologies%5D%5B0%5D=SDK.EpicOnlineServices
>>683698187>just willingly install malware no die
>>683697564Hold the fucking phone. They never implemented any license checks and just blindly let any arbitrary client connect to the official servers?
>we're never gonna get another EDF game on PC because the publisher fucked up and didn't mention the EGS account requirement on the store pageplease tell me this is a nightmare that I have yet to wake up from, my favourite niche game can't end up like this
>>683698529So there's no reason to sign up? gotcha.
>>683698553I don't think many of these games force install EOS when you click launch though
>>683695984Me when I tried playing the demo of that new Prince of Persia game
>>683698028Crossplay was the entire reason for EOS.
>>683698569You use steam tho>>683698585The game has sold way more than any other game, what are you smoking?
>>683698578Yes you can. Legit Steam players who bought the game, even consoles.

>>683698613That’s exactly what they do.
>>683698585EOS is not EGS retard
>>683698585Sorry but it's real bro, they pulled a repeat of the Slopdivers 2 account requirement months after it happened. The utter stupidity.
>>683698438A dummy account associated with your steam tokenAllows you to use Epic Online Services through SteamUsually it's silent but D3 are inept dinosaurs and brought all this shit on themselves
>>683698553Wrong.
>>683690157Rightly so.
>>683698609Same reason to use steam, they force you
>>683698585Your doomposting has no power here, nintennigger. Stick to your circlejerk.
>>683698703I don't believe this, but I will test this with one of these games to make sure.

>>683690157Helldiver's 2...ELECTRIC BOOGALOO
Funny how the discordfaggot's favorite weapon, the steam playercount chart, isn't being posted in the thread. Humm, wonder why.
>>683691998no!
>>683698529I could list all the things Steam offers for free that make it the defacto platform on PC but all of your replies are going to be Sweeney-funded "who cares".I know you fucking Jeets only got the internet in the last decade but at least try and understand why Steam is the top dog on the PC platform despite all its shortcomings.
What the fuck, Outer Wilds used EOS??
>game has already sold way more than any other games in the series>Japs will look at this and think it's thanks to Tim-sama (which it is)APOLOGIZE to the guy saving your dying series.
>1500 posts into this shitposting storm>Most people in it still don't understand the distinction between EOS and EGS
Just stop caring.I didn't buy Sonic Frontiers or Dragon's Dogma 2 solely because they had Denuvo.I didn't buy Digimon Survive because it didn't have Japanese text.I didn't buy Megaton Musashi because it also had some weird shit I don't remember the name of I think.Just stop caring. Don't FOMO. Be extremely petty and move on quickly.
>>683698828Some of those games DON'T EVEN HAVE MULTIPLAYER

>>683699215>people that bought the game are playing it obviously>thread is just paid Steam pajeets trying to doompost>meanwhile the game has already sold way more than any other games in the series
>>683699000That's because everyone involved is deliberately encouraging the confusion. D3P is too terminally retarded to understand what they're talking about and why everyone is so mad, so they just put up a post explicitly stating that you need an Epic Games account to play multiplayer, lying to their audience to piss them off even more. Epic doesn't give a shit and would rather have more people sign up for their bullshit, and anons just want to watch the turds fly.

It runs like shit.
>>683699364Nah I don’t buy it. Elden Ring wouldn’t hand over my data like that.
>>683697017Just blame epicThey'd make you do the game for every gsme on UE if they could.
>>683695547>Extremely commonlyI have never had a game use EOS for crossplay until this, and I do basically nothing but co-op with friends. Where the fuck have you shills been popping up from posting this so much today?
>>683699425Its only 110 levels, you get over 30 brand new missions.
>>683699509You're a steam cultist, use a epic games store instead.
>>683699608You're not necessarily retarded yourself but you clearly don't have a grasp of how those kind of online services function
If you bought this epic slop, then lower your voice when speaking to helldiver chads.
so aside from the epic gay service, is there any other shit we can use to shit on them even more?like server outages, balancing issues, whatever
>>683698227Now you know how Helldiversfags felt.Never ever ever ever ever pre-order. Doesn’t matter if it’s a game in your most favorite series in the world and there’s surely no way they can fuck it up. Don’t do it.

>>683693891Hey pal, blow in from stupid town?People playing games on Steam don't want to rely on any other launcher other than Steam.You don't login to Xbox live when you play on your switch.
>>683690157>reviewbombingthey are reviewing the gameyou can't just make a buzzword up to re-label a normal activity because you don't like the outcome
>>683699879no clue, most people ended up uninstalling it immediately due to that
>>683699830the sony boys crying demanding others to "just make an account" will never not be funny. I can't see why it was so important to them.

>>683697679I still use it regularly, it has a niche but it was better when it was the crowd clearer it was. I don't get why they can't just make the explosion bigger after removing the shrapnel that caused the "exploits" they were salty about

Thank you Tim-sama for gatekeeping my favourite franchise from filthy normalfags
>>683699910You do realize you use Steam, the SBI inc. and CCP store?
>>683690157>requirement to create an EGS Account to play the game online.Completely justified.
>>683699608The first game that uses EOS you play automatically makes a dummy account for you, every following game uses this dummy account.
I was hoping this would be the new HD2 and Sandlot would get a big break, but I woke up to this retarded news of them breaking their own kneecaps instead...
>>683699830I bought neither because I didn't fall for the hype lol
>>683699879translation is half assed and full of engirshvoice acting is awful, and not the b-movie so bad its good sort of bad like previous game, just really bland badgame is 90% a reskin of 5
>>683700015>No, you don't understand, if you allow one bad thing, you have to allow and put up with every bad thing ever!
I wonder how devs/publishers feeling right now.Probably glugging beer in some bar not giving a shit.
>>683699937Redefining words that upset leftists is what they do best.Its not justified reviewing, its 'reviewbombing'. It's not pedophillia, its 'gender reaffirming'. Its not violent niggers, its 'people of color' and so on.
>>683700014This lol.I don't think you can even buy the game ion EGS. They are just using it for online. Hilarious seeing schizos seethe about nothing again while I'm having a blast playing.
>>683700015They made a client specifically for China expecting that the CCP would try to regulate Steam like they do with other companies but it hasn't happened yet for some reason.
>>683700114Yes, Steam is a bigger problem than EoS so complain about that instead?
>>683698917here you go. it's doing slighlty better than the 5 years old dwarf game on its release day
>>683700118at least 17k people paid 60 euros for that trash lol they're all happy
>>683700049The fact that you hoped for this is really fucking stupid, it's better for these games to be niche
>>683700118They'll get returns on hand signed fax documents in about 3 daysJapan is that modern
The lesson to be learned is to use EOS without telling the customer, like every other game already does.
>>683700174>Steam is a bigger problem than EpigLol, lmao. Mao, touch grass.
>>683700015You got a source for that?
>>683700174Steam is a bigger platform which I have already been using for over a decade and will require a much larger effort to change. Not installing a new game has the same benefit for zero effort.
>>683698115The description of them reminds me so much of the mechanoids in Serious Sam. These two settings keep blending in my head more and more.
>>683700218heh
>>683700118If you are drinking and still giving a shit then that means you haven't drank enough.
>>683700174wumao
>>683699879the dub (main selling point of games) is shit
>>683700187Is EDF a dwarflike?
>>683700040oh so then if i try to make a real account and link it with my steam something would break?
>>683697760>The thing is, Epic *requires* crossplay if you want to sell it on EGS. I bet that's because the multiplayer playerbase would be fucking DEAD on launch for literally anything if they didn't force it.
>>683700118>Game sold way more than any other in the seriesthey will probably thank Tim-sama personally>>683700254Riots platform alone has more users than steam
>>683700118gotta give it a month when steam send them the charge back for all the refunds
>>683700206I'm not a hipster, I don't give a fuck if it's niche, but I would like the people who make things I enjoy succeed.But then they pull this dumb shit.
>>683699660I think the distinction is how EOS is implemented. Elden Ring uses EAC and is the only extra thing it actually installs, if EOS is actually used, it's on the backend for online play and not installed on your PC, most online games using it works like this, with or without EAC. Games like Returnal and EDF6 installs EOS as a third party software which adds more features and while it is not required for Returnal (you can cancel the install and the game doesn't care) it is required for EDF6 and adds Epics overlay and other shit. It's supposedly required for crossplay with consoles so it's the publisher/devs at fault for not pointing this shit out beforehand, and Epic for being gay as fuck in how this is done.
>>683700328EDF has more bugs.
>>683698585Good, having to wait an extra fucking year to play on ps5 just so they could ship the port at the same time was pointless.
piratebros how do we play online?
>>683698585Have hope, even after Japan did the fucking retardation of creating and releasing New Gundam Breaker, Gundam Breaker 4 eventually came into existence.
>>683700370>Game sold way more than any other in the seriesevery fucking game is like this, the size of the audience continues expanding every year, of course your newest game is gonna sell more now that you're selling to a prospective audience of 100 million people instead of 10 million like last decade, etc.
>>683700357kinda, if you tried to link an existing epic account with your steam and it already generated an epic account through some steam game, it would give you an error message saying you can't it because that steam account is already linked to an epic account.

Yes you can play with legit players and players on consoles. Enjoy.If you have error about missing files, install epic online services in the game folder.
>>683700547Fucking genius.
>>683690280>Infinte chinese money>Devs already break even and probably paid in advance for a thousasnd copies.But yeah you are changing the world with your negative review. Count as much as a sign over petition to stop violent video games or for the enviroment LOL.
>>683700187I tried playing this and it's so fucking boring, especially the mining shit. So tedious.
>>683700480You are stealing from EGS, stop it at once.
>>683700601>can play with legit players and players on consolesaint no waythanks timmy tencent
>>683699364Epic shills are lying about thisDon’t believe them
>>683690280>total pajeet deathWhy do you hate Valve?
>>683700370>Riots platform alone has more users than steamah i see so we are just making factually incorrect lies now cool
>>683700601>Yes you can play with legit players and players on consoles.ahhahahahhaha thank you Timmy for such amazing service i will spend $60 on pizzas
>>683700542>every fucking game is like thisAre you sure? Tell that to all the failing devs with their pozzed sequels that bomb, retard
>>683696131>All it does is relay your relevant Steam data to Epic's online infrastructureoh yeah, because I want Epic to spy on my steam accountthat's perfectly fine
I have a fun question if anybody thinks they can answer it. I'm pretty sure that Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising utilizes Epic Online Services for their online and that game allows for crossplay with consoles. Correct me if I'm wrong and if I'm right, why is it that Granblue doesn't require you to make an Epic account?
>>683698301SBI is shit
>>683700783Why the fuck do you care? It's a non issue. Oh no, the CCP got your friends list, ITS LITERALLY OVERFUCK YOU RETARD
Get fucking dabbed on. It should have been bombed like this just for selling once again the same fucking game for 60 bucks. But i'll take it.
>>683700796Because it does it silently scroll up nigga
So it it just an account or does it install the epic store app onto your computer too?
game?piratedonline fix?copypastedspacewar?hidden from my accountit's edf time
>>683700796Because they didn't realize they could use the crossplay accounts as a metric to show their investors."Hey look how many more people use our platform now that we make them sign up."
>>683700747This does not even include Valorant numbers>b-but botsAll the top played games on Steam atm are botted to hell
>>683700796In cases like that it just links to Epic on its own without you doing anything.
>>683700867Cuz we prefer not giving an inch so they can take a mile?
>>683700892We are the valiant infantry
>>683700385These games are already full of shitty players who get carried.I don't want more normalfags playing these games.
>>683700959You already gave them an inch years ago when you installed all that shit on your PC and phone, it doesn't matter, they already have everything, WHY THE FUCK DO YOU EVEN CARE ANYMORE
>>683700682The free money is gone anon, they did this for free…
>>683700580EDF isn't an Epic Games title, so that analogy doesn't work. Try again.It'd be more like if some indie game like Bio Prototype needed to be logged into steam on a PS5.
>people that download a DRM platform from a company that works with SBI and the CCP cares about "integrity"??????????
Alright now with the shitposting out of the way it's time for the serious discussion to start:How is the EDF singing during battle compared to previous games?
>>683701056>You got raped in the ass once, so just get raped in the ass 5 more timesYou don't even know what I have installed let alone on my phone.Why do you care about my abstinence and refund request?
>>683700890Thanks for the heads-up, I just used the search function to look for "Granblue" so I asked the question directly instead.>>683700928So you're saying that Epic forced it on the EDF developers?
>>683691998The game also installs EGS on your system which sucks
Once again playstation chads win again.
>>683690157>earth defense sissies thought this was going to mog helldivers 2OHNONONONONONNOONONONONONOONONONONONONO
>>683701142Yes. You are a gay now. You can never ungay yourself. Glad you understand. Now bend over.
>>683701137Ranging from copy pasta from 5 to garbage ai version.
>>683701142Just make a damned account, it takes 90 seconds tops and you forget about it. It's not a big deal.
>you still need EGS to play online on the pirated copyLLLLLLLLLLMMMMMMMMMAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOO
>>683701142I mean you clearly sound like you're familiar with getting ass-raped
>>683700892>hiding spacewaryou should favorite that game on steam so everyone can see how many hours you pirated online games
>>683701235BAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>683701195It's still a much better game.Some autists crying about irrelevant shit doesn't affect the game's quality, just like having to make a PSN account didn't affect HD2.
>>683701224I prefer not to. I'm refunding.
>>683700891It doesn't install the Store app, it installs the Epic Online Service app which allegedly includes some local features like Epic's overlay and some other worthless shit. Games using EOS does not have a hard requirement for this but for whatever reason EDF6 does.
>>683701307>>683701235LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
>>683701137It's trashWorst song by far, worst singing too.Probably the one thing about 6 that is just absolutely worse than the other titles.I say this as someone who thinks this is easily the best EDF game yet.
>>683699000>Installs Epic shit on your system to go online>Faggots try to play it off like ITS JUST A SERVICE LAWLI don't want your fucking garbage on my machine. If it's a server side then thing that's that, but keep your steaming pile of dogshit off my computer.
>>683701307I refunded HD2 when they decided to force that, Not buying EDF for this reason either.
>>683697136does the game not work on linux???
Well guys, you can continue fighting over this. Me personally, I have decided to not buy it. I'll go look for other games instead. See ya!
>>683692676This desu. Also they're getting cucked by buying a repackaged PS2 game for 60 fucking bucks. Imagine that.
>>683701401Ok, that's your autism and tantrum.it didn't affect the quality of the gameplay in any way.
Can you buy this game outside of Steam, or are you forced to install and use Steam to play this game?
>>683701235bro wtf and piratecels are bragging about this???
>>683700547lol then i know for a fact that EOS list is bullshit. i've played a ton of them and linked my steam to a fresh epic account just fine.
>>683690157faf
>>683698301This comic was always stupid. Society never improved; technology did. Improvements in farming techniques and yields are what really improved the lot in life of peasants and paved the way for developed civilisation.
>>683701386It's already on your machine if you've played any popular online game those last 5 years
>>683701404>tim epic bullshitit does not
>>683701467If it improves the game then I'll consider it. If it does nothing then it gets nothing.
>>683701559Ah so that was why it wasn't on my PC explicitly until I installed EDF6
>>683700601https://qiwi.gg/file/6HF70186-tenoke-earthLet's go bros.

>>683698703>>683698828Installed Elden Ring to test it. It does not install EOS on launch like EDF6. So this is not true.

>took over an hour to receive a refundMust be busy over in the refunds department
>>683690157>>683690314While I am not an old fag, I am still old enough to remember being a PC gamer in the 2000's and remembering when Steam was new and how it was constantly shat on for trying to take control away and change how PC gaming works as we know it. I was really late to give in, about around 2010.And to cut my autistic blog short: Valve should play a bit offensively for once and make a rule that no game going forward can require a third party account for anything (to be allowed to play at all, to having to play the games multiplayer, or to get content that cannot be earned through the game itself or purchasable through Steam). I had a misconception that a game gotten through Steam would have no other form of DRM ans I was pissed buying Max Payne 3 on sale and finding out it required downloading and running the Rockstar Game store. Trying to enforce "no other DRM at all than Steam itself" may be hard to sell. But not requiring third party accounts and clients should be reasonable.
>>683701715It does, it also installs EAC which is much worse :^)
DO NOT REDEEM!
>>683701792Its always like this bro'. Game is still shit and everyone should refund, hell, if you were smart you wouldn't have bought that garbage in the first place
>>683701684You don't need to give your credit card to make an Epic account, you disingenuous fuck.
This thread right now
>>683701845It's not in my files from what I can tell, so I don't believe you. Unlike when I install EDF6. EAC is another story, I'm unfamiliar with it, but I'll take your word for it that it's potentially malicious
>>683701923>not even 20k people playing>25% current ratingYeah definitely swimming in cash
>>683700601>Yes you can play with legit players and players on consoles. Enjoy.10/10 service timmy.
holy shit earth defence fags got raped hard.Helldivers total victory
>>683701923And at the end of the episode everyone moved on from the FOTM and ended up with Homer being his only customer. Quite apt.
>>683701996>way more players than they ever had beforeThey are up nearly 300% compared to EDF5, that's a fucking insane increase.
>>683701996Yeah it's great for a small game like that, retard.
>>683702029And Homer and his bunch of friends love being thereVery apt
>>683690157>Steam users are reviewbombing the game due to the requirement to create an EGS Account to play the game online.Good.It forced me to make an automated one for Rocket League and I don't even know how to login besides starting RL from Steam and then it logs me on automatically.Never will I use that shit in any other game and never will I buy one that needs it.
>>683702048>>683702064I'll admit that. They resold exactly the same game with a few changes to your retards, for 60 bucks. They did fucking rape you. Bless the devs.
>>683702029And? You reek of a fucking secondary who never even played these games.EDF having a small playerbase is nothing new. I don't "need" anyone to stay.the game has an amazing built in normalfag filter and gatekeeping.
>>683701927People are retarded and don't understand there's multiple ways for EOS to be implemented. Strictly for online play there's nothing extra needed to be installed locally for consumers as it is handled server-side. But if Epic features for users are implemented like EGS login, overlay and whatever else, EOS is installed as a third party software.As anon has pointed out with Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising however, it is NOT required for crossplay so why EDF6 has it is questionable other than the fact the game does seem planned to release on EGS going by their own webpage.
>>683702048>They are up nearly 300% compared to EDF5you're so shit at math it's funny.
>>683701923This is probably true. To leave a review you had to buy the game so everyone review bombing it still gave them money. Looking through the reviews most of them don't even have "product refunded" so they still kept the game. KWAB>"B-But it wasn't there till hours later!"1) Never pre-order games or buy them at launch.2) Always pirate before buying.
>>683702161>They did fucking rape youI asked for this, it's fine
>>683690157Sad. There are other games that require egs for multiplayer and they don't get review bombed so doing it on this niche game is just hurting them for no reason. Just play single player like normal people.
>>683691998Just spread your anus, what's the issue?
>>683701816>I'm a retardweird flex
>>683702192Interesting, thanks for the info
>>683702184>SecondaryKeep saying words you don't know the meaning of.
>>683702275>dude just create a Steam account, download Steam and let it run and collect Data what's the issue?
>>683696758True
>>683690157Good. Fuck off with that. Any external account requirements should be against tos. But this is better. The game devs can't come after steam for monopoly tactics and they still get reemed by the end users that hate this shit. Helldivers should have made this obvious.
>>683701764>Strawmanthey are both forms of personal information hint: you really aren't as smart as you think.
>>683701473EGS or Console version no other choice
>edf5 barely had players>edf6 is hitting 17k on day 1what happened
just play helldivers 2
>>683702261Retarded japs didn't make it known on the game listing until after release. That's why it's being review bombed
>>683702228>Looking through the reviews most of them don't even have "product refunded" so they still kept the gameMy refund is still pending and I requested it about an hour after the game went live. Give it time.
Hmmm this thread doesn't have enough food analogies desu
>>683702448Why are people not raging that they are forced to install a SBI program?
>>683702450It's the best game in the series and Steamies are SEEEETHING over the ROARING SUCCESSTIMMY SAMA I KNEEL
>>683702450Literally Helldivers 2 happened
>>683702450Vtumorsthey will faint again after 3 hours
>>683702501What's a SBI program?
>they didn't buyted Alan Wake IIand you dare to call yourself "gamers"...
>>683702450I think it's genuinely impossible to fuck up a new release in terms of sales numbers. The demographic for vidya has been exploding year on year and has only now started to plateau.Never trust any scumfuck corpo who celebrates anything being "the fastest/best selling in the franchise". Cornering 2% of the current market is more sales than 20% of the previous one.
>>683702471That's fair.But one of my personal rules is to never get games that have pre-order exclusive content. That is one of the earliest possible red flags for a game for me.
>>683702595Steam, Valve works with SBI so when you use Steam you support Sweet Baby Inc™
>>683701816Nah. In some context it makes sense. An online RPG for instance should be allowed to have their own sign up thing. But these other games where the purpose for the account is literally just to pull users into a competing ecosystem and only inconveniences users? Fuck that. Users should just keep refunding and review bombing the latter. They'll learn eventually.
>>683700002the main reason they removed the shrapnel was because it had a 50% chance of launching straight backwards into your head and instakilling you (which was only discovered after they fixed the glitch where you were immune to your own bullets like it's fucking doom 1)
>>683702668You don't even need to preorder for the stuff.
>>683702647>it's normal for every new game to sell 3 times as much as the previous oneRetard
>>683702684Why do you dislike Sweet Baby Inc? Are you racist?
Oh, so just Steam babies crying about nothing again. Typical.
>>683702726>50% chanceUntrue and retarded, unless you were insanely unlucky or kept hitting things at point blank.
>>683702789
>>683702375Looks like I was spot on, secondary.Go back to HD, nigger.
>>683702192So, for example, if Civ VI, Bannerlord or Wh40k Gladius uses EOS but it doesn't feature EGS login and such, it's all server side? I could simply block connections via hostfile and game wouldn't even notice?But game breaking itself in such case would suggest otherwise, yes?
>>683702595>talking to subhuman /pol/skins
>>683701195how come people that post this image never play any video games?
>>683702789Yes.
It was supposed to work just fine on the pirated version but it doesn't.
>>683700601>Yes you can play with legit players and players on consoles>sell out to corpo>make it easier to piratea shame will be the first edf not my steam list but whatever
>>683690157As they should. Epig is malware.>>683690280FPBP.Epiggies SEETHING.
>>683702381>dude, you already got rectal examination once, right? So what's your issue with my anal rape?
>>683702953Yeah I rather complain about the root of the problem that is being forced to use a DRM platform in the first place to play the game.
>>683702953Anon you talk about ze anus a whole lot
>>683694897the Epic marketeer that talked to their publisher's marketeer forgot to mention that EGS doesn't actually have any customers and will only make people hate you
>>683702904>that ps2 ass menu and font Why are jap games like this
>>683702789Why the fuck should we HAVE to baby other races just because they are sub 80 IQ sub humans with crab in a bucket mentality
>>683703039>game sold way more than any previous game in the series>all thanks to Tim>"n-no it doesn't help!"
>>683702776>Pokemon>Souls>EDF>Monster Hunter I'm excluding Rise because exclusive vs multiplat>Persona>SMT>YakuzaMaybe not three times, but unironically yes.
>>683703063You mean good? They just are.
>>683703063Retards call it soul. For real japanese "people" are just retarded and stuck in the past. And not in a good way.
ITT: Zoomers pretending like they don't log into an Epic account every day to play Fortnite or whatever gay shit they play
>>683702152>He still play Rocket League after Epig bought themISHYGDDT.jpg>Writing was on the wall>CONTINUING to play after Epig bought them>CONTINUING to play after Elong Musk's DumpsterTruck is thrown in with fucked up hit boxes.Do Rocket League faggots really?
>>683703106Tim somehow made more people buy the game on Steam?
>>683703063It's a recolor of EDF 5 anyway. They could shit out EDF game every year.
>>683703063If it's responsive and sounds nice i'm A-OK with that shit
>>683703107>look at the first series in your list for fun>it's the total oppositeRetard
>>683703063>zoomie thinks "PS2-like" is an insult
>>683702726Never happened to me o once because I used it as a long range weapon as intendedBut that wasn't what I fucking asked. I understand they didn't like how the shrapnel damage was calculated and probably too incompetebt to fuck with it without fucking up all the other explosions that creat shrapnel.But tell me, why can't the base explosions of the grenade just be a 5m radius or some shit? They don't have a reason they just gutted the gun.
>>683703204They could put in more money into marketing thanks for Tim gifting them EOS. Yes, it was a genius move. The next EDF game will be even better and probably exclusive.
>>683700601any chance that this gets your steam or epic banned?
>>683700601It only lets you connect with other pirates but not steam players and console players are nowhere to be seen. What a let down.
>>683703172the vast majority of fortnite players are consoles and mobileshitters Tim is actually deluded and thinks he can convert those into PC gamers somehow and dethrone Steam, but you know how that has been going
>>683703063Because they use fonts designed for japanese
I don't even have the account on EGS yet they made one for me automatically
>>683694598EpigOnlineSpyware.dll is a symptom of the Epig Spyware Store cancer. EOS REQUIRES an ESS account. That's the problem.
>>683703290Been using online fixes for quite a while, never a single case of a ban, ever.Here are mirrors of the fix if you can't download it from filehaus:https://hidan.sh/pcutcf1h74dnhttps://gofile.io/d/id20rOhttps://small.fileditchstuff.me/s13/sOKnctnMAGKhPghvbij.rar
>>683703364 Nothing wrong with that.
>>683703409Hi fellow /fuckepic redditor
>>683690314it wasn't there before but even if it was, it's a bad thing so it deserves the negative vote that's like saying "nooo you already knew the game was bad before buying it, you can't give it a negative vote!!!"
>>683703437Everything is wrong with it since you will be met with "failed to connect" message in 9 out of 10 lobbies
I'd like to thank Steam for helping fund the next EDF exclusive on EGS.
>>683703257Note how I said highest/fastest selling.Google quickly pulls up these results>Pokemon Sun and Moon is Nintendo's fastest-selling game in The Americas>Pokémon Sword and Shield is the fastest-selling Nintendo Switch game yet>Pokemon Scarlet And Violet's 10 Million Copies Sold In Three Days Breaks Every Nintendo Record
>>683703521You realize they'll be able to track how many people actually pay for video games on EGS, right?
>>683703521You got that backward
>>683703521I want to thank them for making it playstation exclusive next time so we won't have to wait two years again.
I'm stuck in the tutorial because steam input is broken and I can't shoot my gun
>>683696758Love watching edffags getting their comeuppance after shitting on helldivers for adding mandatory PS account link
>>683703569I clearly stated sale numbers and you replied with that list saying that squels always sell more which is false.
>>683702776>Sell three times as muchProof? Because review count doesn't count. Lots of people don't leave Steam reviews.
>>683703637>i get my thoughts injected directly by console war shitters>and now I carry the torchSad
>>683703589You mean track how practically non existential that demographic is?
>>683696215Twitch and youtube keep recommending vtubers to meI can't figure out what I watch that puts me in the algorithm with those faggotsHoly shit is it cancer
>>683703706Steamdb and steamcharts
>>683703802not as sad as EDF shitting the bed with an epic account LMAO
>>683702381No problem. I'll just go to Walmart and pick up a physical cop-oh
>>683703968If you watch any form of game streams that counts to the algorithm as it shares genre with vtubers who do game streams too.
Im playing the game. Had an Epic account for Fall guys so cbf about login shit drama going on. You already give all your details to google and corpos its too late to have that muh privacy speech.Being a Fencer feels good.
How can anyone look at this manufactured and fake outrage and not believe discordtroons are real? You guys don't even play video games anymore, all you do is look for that next kick, that next controversy "I just need a little bit more controversy maaan that's all"
>>683704165>Im playing the gameTHE ONE THAT WILL TAKE ME TO MY END
Post yfw you didn't preorder.
>>683704165>just stop having principles and bend over for the corpos bronah
>>683693891here's your (you) you son of a bitch
>>683704240I played HD2 even with the Snoy shit. I refuse to install Epic Chink Services on my machine. Shills like you can fuck off, games are still played, just not be shit devs trying to shovel literal trash into our mouths.
>>683704301
>>683704240this is just karma for edf fags having incessantly interject in helldiver threads. get used to it, it'll blow over in a week at most.
>>683704324You broke your "principles" when you installed one of the other 2000 games that use EOS.You have nothing. You are a pathetic waste of space.
>>683704240Is discord in the room with us right now?Are you running it in a different window?
>>683704517>>683693891How many games require you to install it? Yeah, that's about right, fucking boot licking faggot.
>>683704324So I guess you don't use Steam?
All I'm getting is that the game will be free of troglodytes. Time for some quality gaming for once instead of meme-spouters.
Sorry for the betray /v/ros but I love edf so I'll just bend over and spread my cheeks to timmy.
>>683704517projection
>>683704301>preodering in the current centuryWouldn't ever be me.
>leftists screech about Trump being a dictator>nothing happens during his presidency >leftists screech about epic client>nothing happens during its time of usealways do the opposite of what idiots say, anons.
>>683691998Have some self respect you fucking monkey
>>683702714>But these other games where the purpose for the account is literally just to pull users into a competing ecosystem and only inconveniences users?It is nothing to do with that. As far as D3 is concerned it's just a matter of guaranteeing you as a customer will be able to play with anyone on PC regardless of where they got their copy of the game.Epic Game Store is not a requirement. It's just the networking service. This is one of those cases where like it or not, Epic has been doing a better job than Valve in affording cross "platform" services and more publishers are adopting eos as a consequence. See >>683702821 you don't even need to 'sign up'. It just associates your steam ID with a unique key on eos network. I'm not a fan of it either, but it's an unfortunate consequence of these bullshit digital 'platforms'. At some point some games are just going to use one service or another for their networking. Otherwise we're all signing up for new accounts with every single publisher, running their own bloated launchers, etc. 2K, Rockstar. Looking at you.
>>683703364Yeah, you can see those lobbies, but you can't connect to them. Thanks for clarification.
>>683704858>shill tactics fail>I know, let's appeal to rightoid politics, 4chan loves thatThey need to save their money on these shills and invest some in actually making a new game next time roflmfao
I don't care about multiplayer but I totally get the negative reviews. As an EDF fan it's a bummer but at least the sales/player-count/stream counts appear to be much more that they were for EDF 5
>>683698585Am fucking done with them, the delays for western releases after 2027 always grinded my gears and the pricetag of 6 put me on edge but now i just dont care anymore.
>>683705005>at least the sales/player-count/stream counts appear to be much more that they were for EDF 5Steam's peak user count when EDF 5 came out was 14.7 millionSteam's peak user count when EDF 6 came out was 33.0 millionOf course it's going to do bigger numbers. I don't even mind EOS, just use the silent version that 99% of devs already do.
>>683690157>SANDALOT, my son, you must now choose>will you use Steamworks for multiplayer with a dedicated internet backbone that provides superior connection speed>or will you use Epig Online Services to enable cross play with to a store that nobody uses?>...
So is this timmies new grift? Forcing people to make an account to play online? Megaton musashi was like this too, you HAD to make an account just to use the MP even though the rest of the game was steam
>>683690314right on the ignore list
>>683690157Is there even a single lobby in the game that is tagged EGS:[room name] instead of STEAM:[room name]
>>683703365>fortnite players are consoles and mobileshittersStill requires the account
>>683705380Steamworks fucking SUCKS
>noone posted a single EDF6 online MP clip.>yet all are crying about the Epik account creation requirement.tortanic touristfags, you don't even own EDF6.
>>683705748>you don't even own EDF6.You have to buy the game and play it to even leave a review
>>683705739Why, because they have a scheduled maintenance once a week?
>>683705748I'm still deciding whether to refund or not because the whole Epic thing pretty much bricked my friend's account and he can't fucking play onlineYou fucking NIGGER
>>683705748>you don't even own EDF6.Of course I don't
>>683705871refund and pirate
>>683705748Correct, I left a review and refunded
>>683705748i launched it for 1 minute and left a bad review before getting a refundim not a cuck who gives chinks my info to play a game
>play both EDF and Helldivers on playstation>completely bypass all this PC drama
>EDF6>aftermath of EDF5 where you time travel to change the past and events of specific missions
