Quite a few broken games with this generation of consoles. Halo, AC Unity, Driveclub to name 3 of the top of my head.

for everyone its been a big slap in the face, Since BF4 we have has nothing but big broken releases. If it wasn't for Forza working straight from the box I would have given by now.

Did you play Assassins Creed Unity? I put nearly 100 hours into that and had only minor issues. Far Cry 4 wasn't broken either.

Honestly, don't fall into the 'internet hysteria'.

 

[Robert]

Yes, because the countless videos and reports detailing the issues were hysteria? Did you play pre or post patch?

 

[robbiemc]

I played mine (from rental) a few days after launch, so was after its first patch. So in reality the many issues weren't going to cause any players any problems, yet unfortunately everyone persisted in calling it 'broken'.

Now all we hear (as in above) that all the big games this year have been 'broken', which simply isn't the case.

Released too early due to internal pressures? Without doubt, but 'broken'? Nope. Broken suggest a game is unplayable, but that wasn't my experience at all.

Robert, have you played Unity? What were your thoughts?

 

[Buffman]

Halo still unfortunately glitches while you try start an online Co op game . (is fine once you're in buy I cba dealing with that.

People just want to complain left right and centre about everything these days... Sort of glad though as unity has tumbled in price and I want to play at some point!

 

[robbiemc]

I actually cancelled my per-order of Unity due to the negative press, but was very pleased at how well it played. In 100 hours of play I only fell through the floor once, and at no other time did the game actually 'break'.

I suppose for me the problem is two fold:
- Use of the word 'broken'. That's a strong word that's pretty clear in it use - the game doesn't work.
- People who have not played the game claiming it's broken.

'Unfinished' or 'released too early' is a better way to describe some games this year, which is still a major issue of course, but then that wouldn't make such good click bait, would it.

Okay, I have Live but my console is telling me I don't. I then check subscriptions and I have a few days left. I try to purchase another sub and says my payment method is used on too many accounts? ideas?

Nice update for Febuary...

 

[ic1male]

Tile transparency is good but meh for the rest.

 

[JoeBoi]

You guys need to complain less, try dealing with the lack of updates on the PS4 .

Lol, you are quite right, sir. I hold my tongue in future.

I'm not sure it's something that can be fixed.
