That suppose to be Wednesday so the day after tomorrow.
Interesting, but not much to work with. Still, Xbox BC news this week and whatever tf this is. Not bad.
But we have to remember Gears will also switch to UE5
I stopped playing after the third one, never touched the new ones. It has the type of gameplay and story that gets quite boring quickly. TC are excellent devs and Iâd be keen to see what they can do on a different IP, hopefully after Gears 6 they can move on.
but we have to remember UE5 is the next version of Unreal with supposedly very easy upgrade path which is what Hellblade 2 is gonna be doing. Thatâs unlike a whole ass new engine from scratch like Slipspace.
I donât think itâs far fetched to expect Gears 6 in 2023, even Rand on his recent video said heâd expect it to arrive in that year. UE5 will have arrived by next year, and the game will have been in development for 4 years in 2023. Gears 5 took 3 years more, Gears 6 can take 1 more for UE5 and related tech groundwork. 4 years is a good bet I feel.
You mean that they bought a studio or studios maybe? But would that fall under âinsaneâ?
Keep your expectations in check for that BC thing. Itâs just the start of something. Something really cool, but the initial offering might be a bit disappointing.
Xbox related?
Probably Uplay coming to Game Pass, theyâll start with a small selection of games and keep adding to it.
naah they should first add the long overdue EA Play to PC, itâd be extremely annoying if theyâre announcing another publisher on board while the first one itself isnât properly integrated. But I wouldnât be surprised if this UPlay deal completely ignores the PC Gamepass, of course.
Also, Uplay itself needs to fragment itself first, it currently doesnât have an EA Play style vault. I would expect that to happen first, then it would take a bit longer to integrate the Vault. As Nick said on the podcast, maybe by the end of the year is a good bet.
Them adding Uplay isnât going to stop them from working on EA Play on PC lol obviously itâs a technical thing that theyâre working on which is completely different to adding a new publisher to the service.
Could be the reason itâll have a slow start, theyâre most likely working on it right now behind the scenes just because they havenât announced it yet doesnât mean theyâre not working on it. By the end of the year maybe itâll be complete in the sense most of the games are added.
Confirmation of restarting the BC program would already be really cool and enough for me
Thanks, I appreciate this.
Honestly I wasnât expecting crazy stuff, but something like Fallout 4 for starters, since that was the first game they showed for it last year.
Do you also know what the thing is ACG mentioned?
More BC games? Oh yes letâs go.
Also trueđ
My guess, and it is purely a guess, is that a small number (10-20) games have had the frame doubling treatment, and that is what will be revealed this week. Then there will be more added as and when they are completed.
Thatâs what makes the most sense, as when MS talked about it, it was about a list of certain games, but not all. I expect they will expand that list as time goes on.
