Name any 'AAA' shooter in the last 2-3 years with a 15 hour single player.

Longest one I can think of is wolfenstein new order which I have 12 hours played, and I'm 2/3rds of the way through my second playthrough.

My stealth playthrough of metro last light is on 15 hours, including a restart.

Depends on how you play the game :p

I take my time and explore every single corner of a level/game.

Watched a video last night with a guy ranting for 18 minutes about the game, would have been amusing if he wasn't a Star Wars anorak and spent 10 minutes bitching about inaccuracies in the em11 blaster, storm trooper gloves\uniform and Vaders helmet dome....i **** you not. :rolleyes:

I got more than that (in some cases WAY more than that) from most single player games I played,

Deus Ex: HR
Bioshock Infinite
Borderlands – any of them, I even spent longer than that on the expansion
Alien Isolation
GTA V

Do you play all of the game or just blast through it as fast as you can? I like to play it all and that takes time.

I got a fairly decent amount of time out of DX:HR and Dishonoured but Bioshock Infinite I'd completed most of it in an afternoon and I wasn't rushing it :S I have fond memories of the days of Half-Life and Deus Ex originals where they kept me going for most of a week of solid gaming. (Sadly these days don't really have time to do that any more though).
 
Any one know if any game stores are doing a midnight launch?

Ive been trying get through to Game since friday sent 3 emails an got no reply from either means.
 
Guys and gals anyone found the Season pass cheaper or even for sale than on origin?

I have found the base game for 33 which included the Pre order bonus but cant seem to find anyone other than origin that sell the season pass (or the ultimate edition)
 
Seems as though i'm one of the few looking forward to this game.

I assume that the people moaning about the vehicle/hero pickup system are the vehicle whores of BF4? Who won't be able to keep respawning into the same vehicle over and over again simply because it's all they can use. The current system actually gives everyone a chance to play who they want to or what they want to and if the person misses out on the pickup, well go do something else worth while.

The ballance seemed pretty spot on to me in the beta. I must have played a good number of hours of the beta and both sides lost and won equal amount of times. The rebbles should be out gunned and out numbered, that's the way the film was and the game should follow.

Really wish people would stop moaning about kills and deaths being shown on the scoreboard, why is it such a big deal. I'd happily have some guy running around killing everything on sight and drawing fire away from the rest of the team in order for them to complete the objectives because he wants an "epic" K/D ratio.

I've pre ordered. Large number of game modes, graphics look great, the teaming up part for online games needs improving but anything is better than BF4 at the moment.

I agree with this, while its not perfect I much prefer the vehicle system in this then battlefield.

Not sure what beta you played but while it was possible or the rebels to win ridiculously easy if people did things right, most of the battles I played (which was quite a lot) the imperials won, comfortably. Also I'm not so sure about the 'rebels should be outnumbered and out gunned', unless your also suggesting that they code it so the imperial troopers have a 98% miss chance and can be killed by having a small rock thrown at them, you know, to make it in line with the films.

Because it's very rarely just 'one guy', let alone one guy who's good enough to actually draw anything other than ridicule from both teams. It's an epeen measuring stick and there are enough games to cater for that these days, play the ******* objective. :D

Agree that it looks very nice, disagree quite strongly at the large number of game modes, its quite lacking in terms of content for such an expensive title.

The vehicle/hero system is no different to BF vehicle spawn system except instead of sitting in the spawn screen, you now just have to sit at the back of your spawn along with the other 3+ guys and wait for the pickups to show, they aren't randomly placed, they are the same each pickup @ the same location, at least in the alpha and beta they were.
 
I believe (though don't know for sure) that offline game modes are of the survival type (against waves of AI) and not objective modes like walker assault.

You'd get some that were always in the same place but I seem to recall some others were random (same position always but different pickup) I've had the vehicle pickups before from the one outside of the rebel base on hoth that normally rotates between squad shield and smart rocket.
