    for me the biggest and most annoying thing is the forced load screens when in a group. I'm a explorer so when I play these types of games, I want to see how much detail is in the world, I want to see all the fauna, secret locations etc but when I'm just trying to smell the roses, BOOM! I'm yanked into a dungeon which results in a load screen and I lose track of the cool place I just found. I hope they give us the option to explore as much as we want even in a group don't force us to engage if we aren't ready. 

    What? There's a freeplay mode for this, you can do what you want there. When you're doing a mission, you need to do the mission and work as a team. There is nothing hidden in missions that isn't in the freeplay mode.

    Or.. you can just do the missions privately on normal or easy.

    You're complaining about nothing. It's you that's doing it wrong.

    You really expect everyone in your team to wait for you while you find a nice plant or be forced to finish the mission without you because you're exploring? Jeez.

    I personally don't know if I would say text chat not being there is a bad thing. Hell it can actually be a good things sometimes because you don't have to deal with other people trying to flame you because you know you wanted to do this or that and they just want to go as fast as possible.

    I am going to give this game a chance when it launches normally, not paying for origin access. I plan to play it strictly as solo so this is why I say that the no text is a good thing.

    Overall the game didn't really impress me with the demo to be honest, but I will reserve my final judgement on the released product. It really felt like a more modern Warframe but actually slower than Warframe to me which isn't really a bad thing in that respect.
    You will want to use their matchmaking system which actually works pretty well. I tried doing everything solo to start with. Its a lot harder and takes way way longer. Stumbled into their mm system by accident and thot: "Hey this isn't so bad", been playing that way ever since. You do not interact with your playing partners you just kill stuff together.
    Nah, I enjoy the slow pace and harder myself that is the point.  I don't want to just kill things with others or have others advance things for me.  Some types of games I just prefer to play solo, shooters and ARPG's are those.  The thing that I hated most about the demo was it through me into a group without asking if I wanted to group on the first mission I loaded into.  It has the same grouping as destiny and warframe both games I play solo also.  I only do anything group only if something is locked out because it is group only.  There is no real point to having grouping if it is just because you made your mobs bullet sponges to be honest.  If you are not interacting together then what is really the point?

    Bro don't tell me I'm playing wrong, I'm playing how I want to play period. I could be in a menu or something and the group will pull me into a dungeon. My point is I don't want to be auto pulled I want to get there when I want to. I don't want any catch up assistance at all mr "its wrong because I dont like it"

    I cant see it having any longevity, the beautiful world is pointless, you may as well be on rails with the "go here" and "go there" markers, if you look around your squad will go ahead and either force a load on you or get mad as they wait at a door and if you play single player you really get to see how abysmal the AI is. If you want to try it, get the $15 origin access for a month, saved me buying the full game.
    You kinda nailed my gripe about being in a group but nothing wanting to fly through a mission and take your time an look around.  I got pulled multiple times because the others were just trying to go as fast as possible.

    Hey, bro, you need to remember you're playing with others and what they want matters too. You can play solo if you want without any issues and take all the time you need. You can't join a 'group' activity and expect it to be all about you. You prepare before the mission, you never even need to look at menus and you get the mission done. Be a real freelancer.

    Believe me, when the kick function gets added your kind of approach isn't going to do you any favours, in ANY game.

    oh shit my bad for not wanting to rush through every mission as fast as possible. You are the type who runs to point to point without taking in anything at all.. Same people who bitch about "no content" after 3 days.. 

    When the kick function is added being a content locust with people who want to have a slower experience is gonna make you rage quit or get kicked. See how that works in other ways?  You "NEED TO REMEMBER"  there are people who have different play styles than yourself. Why did you even start this conversation? 

    Were you that bothered by a person with a different play style? I don't care if I'm in free play, or doing a mission my play style is take it slow. There are others like me. I will mostly play with them. Tell me again what you are mad about? 

    "Its wrong because I don't like it" strikes again. SMH. Stop trying to pick a fight over someone's opinion.. Mr. "Real Freelancer" foh..

    Look, you can do what you want, obviously, but if they remove the catch up thing all that's going to happen is you'll be left behind, get less loot because you're out of range and others will complete the mission without you. You'll miss all the content. It's a fast paced action game, not an MMO that absolutely requires your contribution. You'll just end up leeching if you don't get kicked.

    You can try to apply your style to every game you come across but it won't always work out better for you. If you want to play that way it'd be much better for you to find some like-minded people and use premade squads instead..

    Oh.. and I soloed most of the story on Hard because I wanted to go at my own pace. I played some missions as a group but that was with friends while we were chatting on Discord.

    dude huh......  Stop trying to control my experience. who the hell died and made you king game master..

    I will play any game how I want to and still enjoy myself. I'm not missing shit. Again stop this pretentious shit where you think people who don't play how you want them to are wrong.   wtf..

    I literally just told you I'm going to play with people that I know, I already am, what part of that did you not get. The part where I said "there are others like me" or the "I will play with them" part..

    LOL I'm not trying to control your experience. You're trying to change the nature of the game. There is literally nothing else to do in the mission other than follow the objectives and maybe pick up some crafting materials along the way. That's what the missions are. I didn't decide that, the developers did.

    If there wasn't the catch up mechanic, and you were pugging, you would be missing shit. Because it's there, you won't. You won't miss the story or the action. That's my entire point.

    If you're playing with people you know, why is this catch up thing bothering you so much then? "for me the biggest and most annoying thing is the forced load screens when in a group" seems like a pretty extreme response to something that doesn't even apply to you.

    I said I don't like catch up mechanics in general. Friends or Randoms, I don't like catch up mechanics.  How is that me changing the nature of the game?  wtf are you talking about...
    damn you are annoying.. 

    nobody is trying to change the nature of the game.. wtf are you talking about. I have the choice to not rush through the content and that's on me.. You ARE trying to control my experience by telling me I'm "Playing  wrong" and trying to tell me what I need to do.. sit down somewhere.

    LOL who do you think you are? Really. You are just a rando on the internet. Don't forget. 

    Furthermore why the hell does it bother you how I want to play? I don't think it does really, I just think you like me or some shit, you are always first to react to anything I say..I can say anything.. literally anything, like "I think the sky is amazing" you will quote me wtf/lol me and tell me how wrong I am because the sky is actually not there because there is a filter or some shit. You will then turn the whole thread into how we never went to the moon. 

     I don't want you. Move along now.

    Because you like to play certain way does not make you right either.

    Assuming the mechanics is implemented to keep the pace of the dungeon up, your prefered playstyle is simply not how dungeons are supposed to be played, by design.

    Like you said, you need to rememeber there are people who have different play styles than yourself. Or you are just being a hypocrite...

See how that works in other ways?  You know there are people who have different play styles than yourself right? Why did you even start this conversation? 

    Were you that bothered by a person with a different play style? I don't care if I'm in free play, or doing a mission my play style is take it slow. There are others like me. I will mostly play with them. Tell me again what you are mad about? 

    "Its wrong because I don't like it" strikes again. SMH.
    Look, you can do what you want, obviously, but if they remove the catch up thing all that's going to happen is you'll be left behind, get less loot because you're out of range and others will complete the mission without you. You'll miss all the content. It's a fast paced action game, not an MMO that absolutely requires your contribution. You'll just end up leeching if you don't get kicked.

    You can try to apply your style to every game you come across but it won't always work out better for you. If you want to play that way it'd be much better for you to find some like-minded people and use premade squads instead..
    dude huh......  Stop trying to control my experience. who the hell died and made you king game master..

    I will play any game how I want to and still enjoy myself. I'm not missing shit. Again stop this pretentious shit where you think people who don't play how you want them to are wrong.   wtf..

    I literally just told you I'm going to play with people that I know, I already am, what part of that did you not get. The part where I said "there are others like me" or the "I will play with them" part..




    LOL I'm not trying to control your experience. You're trying to change the nature of the game. There is literally nothing else to do in the mission other than follow the objectives and maybe pick up some crafting materials along the way. That's what the missions are. I didn't decide that, the developers did.

    If you're playing with people you know, why is this catch up thing bothering you so much then?
    I said I don't like catch up mechanics in general. Friends or Randoms, I don't like catch up mechanics.  How is that me changing the nature of the game?  wtf are you talking about...
    damn you are annoying.. 

    nobody is trying to change the nature of the game.. wtf are you talking about. I have the choice to not rush through the content and that's on me.. You ARE trying to control my experience by telling me I'm "Playing  wrong" and trying to tell me what I need to do.. sit down somewhere.

    LOL who do you think you are? Really. You are just a rando on the internet. Don't forget. 

    Furthermore why the hell does it bother you how I want to play? I don't think it does really, I just think you like me or some shit, you are always first to react to anything I say..I can say anything.. literally anything, like "I think the sky is amazing" you will quote me wtf/lol me and tell me how wrong I am because the sky is actually not there because there is a filter or some shit. You will then turn the whole thread into how we never went to the moon. 

     I don't want you. Move along now. 
    I do like you. We should hug. Please don't abandon me.

    Because you like to play certain way does not make you right either.

    Assuming the mechanics is implemented to keep the pace of the game up, your prefered playstyle is simply not how the game is supposed to be played, by design.

    Like you said, there are people who have different play styles than yourself. Or you are just being a hypocrite...
     wasn't the lol button enough for you? What happened you finally broke it? 

    *sigh* every time I post no matter the subject its the same people coming at me for having my own opinion. I get it you want the D, but I'm married so please stop. I don't want any of you. 

    I don't care what any of you say, You don't control shit over here. I will play how I want to play end of story. How the game was designed.. FOH.. You know most games are not played by their intended design because of what i said.. different people have different play styles.

    Stop trying to change the narrative.

    I never said I was right Goofy.  I was told I was wrong for playing how I want to. 

    You want to content locust through it cool..and I want to take my time go at my own pace with my friends. cool.

    All I said was I don't like the catch up mechanics and  clowns got their panties in a bunch. again go away shoo.  I'm about to play Metro.

    Buddy, I did the same as you, played the story solo or with close friends so I could go at my own pace. I'm saying the catch up mechanic benefits 'matchmaking' in this type of game and there's ways around it, like we have done, for those that don't want to feel rushed so it's not that big of a deal. You made out like it's the worst thing about the game. You literally said that it was the worst thing about the game for you.

    And for the record, I'm not personally attacking you or anything. I don't even remember another time I've replied to you about something.

    Wanna be Origin friends so we can help earn each other coins? You don't have to give me the D, I can live without it but I'll always be left wanting.

    No one is talking about the game-breaking bugs in Anthem. What about the empty Mission instances with no enemies in them. I have queued into missions with no enemies in them over and over again. I get stuck in the instance, cant exit from it and have to quit the game to get out. Then when I re-enter the game, the game session is still up and I have to choose not to re-enter it.

    Because you like to play certain way does not make you right either.

    Assuming the mechanics is implemented to keep the pace of the dungeon up, your prefered playstyle is simply not how dungeons are supposed to be played, by design.

    Like you said, you need to rememeber there are people who have different play styles than yourself. Or you are just being a hypocrite...
    It's not to keep the pace up, because it only comes into play based on where the players are in relation to one another.  If you all stop to gather mats, nobody gets ported.  That doesn't encourage keeping the pace up.

    If the devs wanted to up the pace, it wouldn't be tethered to distance between players like it is.  It's to keep players together because Bioware really, really wants you to play Anthem as a squad.  Evidenced also by the way it practically begs you to launch public expeditions instead of private ones, and doesn't even allow you to Freeplay solo.

    I don't mind it, but it's currently too stingy with the space it gives between players.  It needs to be more relaxed.  The Javelins can fly; it doesn't take that long to catch up to the current fight even if you do fall behind.  The best use of the mechanic is to port a player who gets lost back to the general area of their team.  I can understand that because of the scale and complexity of some of the environments can be confusing to some players.  It currently doesn't give enough room for folks to even stop and collect mats or things like runes sometimes if one single group member decides not to stop or has collected those items on a previous run.  That's not useful.

    Sure, but you will be playing it wrong way, thus your further complaints about gameplay are moot - you are simply wrong, end of story..?

    At the very least, they need to evaluate how it interacts with loading times.

    I've heard of complaints by players who took too long to load, were too far from their faster-loading teammates when they did finally get in, and then had to endure another loading screen immediately as the game teleports them to their team.

    Haven't had this happen to me. If if had I'd be happy to complain about it.

    Hopefully the patch on Friday will fix it for you.

    This might be something of a counter-productive suggestion, but maybe players should only enter a mission when all members of their squad have loaded in. That would solve some of the teleporting issues and help make the squad experience better, even if it comes at the cost of longer loading times for some. If players are going to rush objectives, let them start rushing at the same time.

    Might be needed.. but there's load time improvements and standard HDD improvements in the patch notes for Friday so it might not be an issue then.

    I think widening the radius, so to speak, would also help those who load a bit more slowly, but this idea may also be useful.  Isn't that the way Destiny works?  I was pretty sure last time I played it that I waited on the individual squad members to load in orbit before I saw the landing animation to start the mission.

    for me the biggest and most annoying thing is the forced load screens when in a group. I'm a explorer so when I play these types of games, I want to see how much detail is in the world, I want to see all the fauna, secret locations etc but when I'm just trying to smell the roses, BOOM! I'm yanked into a dungeon which results in a load screen and I lose track of the cool place I just found. I hope they give us the option to explore as much as we want even in a group don't force us to engage if we aren't ready. 

    What? There's a freeplay mode for this, you can do what you want there. When you're doing a mission, you need to do the mission and work as a team. There is nothing hidden in missions that isn't in the freeplay mode.

    Or.. you can just do the missions privately on normal or easy.

    You're complaining about nothing. It's you that's doing it wrong.

    You really expect everyone in your team to wait for you while you find a nice plant or be forced to finish the mission without you because you're exploring? Jeez.
    Bro don't tell me I'm playing wrong, I'm playing how I want to play period. I could be in a menu or something and the group will pull me into a dungeon. My point is I don't want to be auto pulled I want to get there when I want to. I don't want any catch up assistance at all mr "its wrong because I dont like it" 
    Hey, bro, you need to remember you're playing with others and what they want matters too. You can play solo if you want without any issues and take all the time you need. You can't join a 'group' activity and expect it to be all about you. You prepare before the mission, you never even need to look at menus and you get the mission done. Be a real freelancer.

    Believe me, when the kick function gets added your kind of approach isn't going to do you any favours, in ANY game.
    oh shit my bad for not wanting to rush through every mission as fast as possible. You are the type who runs to point to point without taking in anything at all.. Same people who bitch about "no content" after 3 days.. 

    When the kick function is added being a content locust with people who want to have a slower experience is gonna make you rage quit or get kicked.

    I literally just told you I'm going to play with people that I know, I already am, what part of that did you not get. The part where I said "there are others like me" or the "I will play with them" part..



    In the end, the lesson here is neither of you play the same and neither of you should be grouping together.

    And I get it, when I played Dungeons and Dragons Online I'd be in groups that would just barrel through stuff. It looked ridiculous and was simply not enjoyable.

    This doesn't even have to do with his statement of "it's not an mmorpg." Doesn't matter, barreling through things for some is just silly.

    But for some it's not. They want it fast and as fast as possible.

    So sure, if either of you get into a group together (I doubt it) the group with the dominant mindset will be kicking the other.

    Just get a group of friends who play like yourself and don't worry about what other do or think. Make your own fun. And part of that is insuring that you play with like minded people.
