Starbound vs. COD ghosts

i wont bother to make a list what they could add than 5 new weps or few maps not worth my time for this crap game

 

you sir have made my day *claps*

 

lets see...cost of base game+ map packs+account service fee that is required to play multiplayer for xbox and playstation(albeit you only need the playstation network to play multiplayer vs xbox gold is required to use any and all online services) Thats what...180-200 dollars us a year just to play cod?....yeah...ill take a pass thank you very much

I mean do you know how many my little ponies I could get my daughter with that kinda money? jeez

 

We're talking about how CoD Ghosts is more popular on a certain platform at a certain time. I'd say that is pretty irrelevant.

 

Don't take my opinion too harshly, though. I may just not understand the genre enough.

 

Gotta say if you truly do that then that is deliciously evil

 

CoD is like that on pc there player base is on consoles

 

It's been out for a month, too. I doubt Starbound will be anywhere near 88k active players per day a month from now unless it goes on discount during the holiday sale. Every game has a peak at launch and then wanes.

 

Heard that CoD ghost was a big failure, many seems to find Black Ops II far better.

 

Well the same can be said for any game that no one likes, it's all personal preference really. Plus I play LoL and Dota 2 .

 

Part of me feels that if the numbers were reversed, everyone would be saying "You can't compare an indie game to a triple-A game!" instead of what's being said right now

 

COD has to be the same game, every year. They have an extremely loyal *cough cough 12 year olds cough* fanbase, and if they drastically made changes, they would lose a lot of those fans who have learned to love the series for what it is.

 

While it is unfair to compare games of completely different genres and platforms, I still laughed out loud reading the numbers.

I am sorry for all shooter fans out there, but I hope the shooter genre crashes soon and that the sequel machines of Battlefield, CoD and so on die. These games have not changed in any significant way in years.

 

This is a bit skewed because it doesn't take into account console players. But it is pretty funny .

 

Truer words were never spoken

 

Tired of this nonsense.

CoD was bashed in the first place because it was too casual.
Now there are thousands of casuals bashing CoD just because everyone else does it.

Yet if you ask most people "why do you even hate CoD?", I can guarantee they won't be able to give you a straight answer. Because their opinions are not their own. Instead of playing the game and forming their own opinions, they just mindlessly bandwagon.

"CoD never changes." So what? Neither does any other AAA title.
Battlefield has remained the same since it's first iteration, only adding levolution and tweaking class structure.
Halo and Gears of War have remained mostly the same until recently.
Yet no one ever complained about a lack of change there.

No, I am not a CoD fanboy. But stop being sheep, stop circle jerking, and stop posting this nonsense where it is entirely irrelevant to anything.

Lock this thread. It has nothing to do with Starbound and nothing constructive can come of it.

Well I can say that people pick on cod because it is the poster child for the casual bro gamer, who is content to buy an fps shooter and some sports games for there system and nothing else. That's not to say that those other games aren't just the same (battlefield, gears, halo) they are just as much a part of the über casual crowd that get picked on so much. Cod is just the one that broke into the market so effectively, and so It gets most of the attention negative or otherwise. As for legitimate complaints, games like cod encourage aaa devs to stop innovating and start iterating more, leading to a bleak, uninteresting, and overly familiar gaming landscape. This is bad. Baaaaaad

 

me too ;_;

 

Wow, took that way to far. Guess people can't share their opinions on a forum anymore.

(A place where ideas and views on a particular issue can be exchanged)

 

50 dollar game and 15 dollar game. Omg this was so unexpected. AND COD IS ON THE PC TOO OMG THATS THE PLATFORM EVERYONE PLAYS IT ON.
