E3 2016

[Havok83]

Wow wow wow wow. What a start! Man this week gonna be so epic. So awesome!

I thought it was lame. If I had to grade this conference, I'd give it a D. It was boring and outside of TF2 (which their showing wasnt all that impressive), it was rather weak and not a good start to the week. They should have showed ME gameplay and detailed at least one of the SW games. I will say I appreciate that they didnt do the cringeworthy gimmicks that Im sure UBisoft will pull out tomorrow

So many first person shooters to play this year.

 

[jokesonm3]

I highly recommend you guys watch Stonemountain64's Battlefield commentary, hilarious stuff.

I guess I'd give them a 6 out of 10. TitanFall 2 and BF1 look incredible. ME: A looks great, but too bad there wasn't more. I'm confused as to what is going on with next year's Battlefront. The other SW games planned right now seem cool. EA didn't surprise me, they do the same thing every year. They typically have 2-3 great games to show and the rest is filler.

Seriously. Even with just Doom and Overwatch this would have been a great year for shooters, but there's even more coming that look great too.

 

[GENERAL RAAM582]

So where is this hour of Battlefield 1?

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I was kind of shocked they showed so little of Mass Effect. It was originally supposed to come out in just a few months.

I am starting to think that wasn't really true. These companies seem to love to announce stuff early, even if it is super unrealistic.

 

[jokesonm3]

Btw the Xbox One Slim leaked... lawl.

 

[TX85]

Needed more Mass Effect and Star Wars but Battlefield 1 and TitanFall 2 looks so ****ing good!

 

[Havok83]

It was never coming out in a few months. They had nothing to show last year, yet people were insistent that it would come out in 2016. When they officially delayed it, I thought okay, show me something and they didnt. Now E3 comes and still no gameplay. This game is huge and they need alot of time. Fall 2017 at the earliest seems more reasonable but I wouldnt be surprised if its 2018

yep!! it's purty.

 

[X Knight]

disappointed no hint of Dragon Age 4 ( though that will probably be next year after MEA is out of the way ).

and no real hint of a new Bioware SW game ( other than Bioware being listed as one of the SW devs ).

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

Man, that was a letdown. I went in hoping to see more Mass Effect and more Star Wars. And...got kinda nothing. I mean, they told us about a Star Wars game that "should" be ready in 2018. Lots of behind the scenes stuff, and concept art...but that's nothing, really.

I'm starting to think Mass Effect is going to have problems. The game's supposedly going to be ready early next year...I'm starting to think at the least it'll get shoved into the back end of next year, if not straight up 2018. They pretty much gave the same Mass Effect stuff last year, which was behind the scenes stuff of "what may come...", and nothing with any of the Star Wars stuff seemed ready enough to show anything to us that made sense.

And the Soccer stuff, I mean it's not for me and I understand it makes money and has a ton of fans. But, I came in and kinda got nothing but some seconds and concept art of things I wanted to see. So, meh.

I agree completely Havok.

Green Lanterns here!

ME and DA alternate so DA would be next year

 

[X Knight]

yeah, I'm starting to think ME: A won't be coming until later 2017, too.

hope it's not pushed back to 2018, though.

 

[X Knight]

yeah. that makes sense.

 

[X Knight]

hopefully Beth will make the Skyrim remaster official later tonight!!

Yeah, I wish there had been something. A behind the scenes video, or concept art, or a logo. Something to know they're working on the next Dragon Age would have been cool.

There is the possibility that they show the gameplay at the Microsoft conference.

agreed.

 

[jokesonm3]

God i really wanna see Terry Crews rip his shirt off and shout loud while playing BF1.

 

[Soapy]

Didn't they just put out a Dragon Age last year?

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

I'm leaning 2018, now. I think if they were shooting for an solid 2017 release, they should have had something more to show. A proper trailer, or a few minutes of gameplay. Something that showed some solid footing.

I get the feeling, with as little as they showed, that they've still got alot of work left to do. So, late 2017 at the soonest seems about right to me. Which would mean we get alot of Mass Effect stuff at next year's E3.

Which is a little disappointing because I'd heard that the aim was for Mass Effect to hit 1st quarter next year. There's no way that's happening, I think.
