Eh, there are a lot of always-online games. That’s not a deal-breaker for me — at least not at a reasonable price.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

I don't think it's "always" online - I think online is required to install it, disc or not.
Once installed, you should be able to play without being online, at least on consoles.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

So if servers go down it doesn't matter, you still have the game forever.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

And if my internet goes down I won't be able to play it.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

You only need internet to install it, not to play it.

New Summer Game Fest trailer

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

Just watched the gameplay demo on Ubisoft’s channel. Looks really fun!

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

Nice, but $110? -eek-

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

Same price online. $130 for the big daddy edition.

I just took it off my list. Once I finish my backlog I will buy it. I have just put a moratorium on new games until I play all old games I haven't played (and they're all games I really want to play). (Gamepass games excluded, I have 30 months of codes saved up)

Maybe it will be $20 when I'm done :lol:

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

A shockingly negative preview article from Game Spot here.
Keep in mind though that most of the complaints is that it's way too easy, yet he didn't know what difficulty level the demo was set at, and it could have been on the easiest setting by Ubisoft intentionally. In any case it's a little worrying.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

That's the most exciting news I've heard about the game so far.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

Care to explain why?

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

I don't need a difficult game. I'm too old for that shit. Give me all the best mechanics of the Ubi collection in a SW setting and I should be happy.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

Agreed. I don’t want a cake walk, but I don’t want it to be unbearable either.

I’ve played games on the easiest setting because I want to enjoy the story of the game and not be sidelined by difficulty in the game play.

Right there with you, Rob V.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

I’m excited for this, just not sure if I’ll be able to find the time to play it.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

that looked and sounded great!!

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

This new gameplay footage makes it look like ass. Boring, generic ass!

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

that looked spectacular. this game for me it is. glad i preordered.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

Preordering an open world game that's a new property without seeing any reviews is a bold choice.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

Especially one from Ubisoft, which is guaranteed to be riddled with bugs, and heavily discounted in a few months (likely with the bugs worked out).

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

I get that Ubisoft drops prices rather quickly... but they tend to deliver and they produce mostly quality IPs with good stories and characters you can care about. Show me a developer that doesn't have launch bugs in 2024 (or ever for that matter).

Now that said, the 10 minute video didn't overly impress me. The random character stream of consciousness babbling and the ridiculous explosion at around the 6:18 mark was laughable. I see the formula is "oh, you need this? Then go do that first". I pre-ordered so I'm playing this regardless. It's the game I wanted since I was a kid - albeit not with the original heros... but I'll take it.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

I'm interested in this game, but between Ubisoft's history and its Labor Day release date, this has "40-50% off Black Friday Sale" written all over it.

Re: Star Wars: Outlaws (2024)
 

I want this game so bad but the premium will be $20 in a year.
