    If the campaign is ...well, more than 8 houts, I guess and it has a decent story I'll probably shell out for the ps4 vversion.
    I really should get into pc gaming, for the game prices if nithing else
    £38 from Indonesian PSN. A lot better than £60 for UK.

    Aren't you restricted to that region if you play online though?

    @JamboWayOh I don’t play online really but I didn’t think regional locks were still a thing for games these days.

    I'm wondering how the upgrade to PS5 will work if I buy from an overseas store. There's no guarantee we will be able to use them on PS5 is there?

    @tonyferrino I shouldn’t see it would make a difference, you’ll still have the overseas account and I can’t see them making any big changes to how accounts work on PS5.

    About 3 hours into the story and I have to echo some thoughts here - it's actually very enjoyable. Not a huge fan of the "multiplayer" style missions in the single player campaign but the content around it is actually great!

    This game is annihilating the fan on my Pro, even when standing still at the war table. Never even knew it could get so loud.

    @creepiest-lizard Your hatred for this game cracks me up. And yet here you are posting in here again. Brilliant.

    In any case, it’s good to see Patrick Klepek is enjoying it too.

    Or maybe he’s just been paid to say that.
    Am I supposed to know who this is?

    @ChiefGB If you follow gaming journalism at all then yes. Otherwise I guess not.

    They really need to patch the load times. 1 minute every time you die (playing on hard) gets old pretty quick.

    Will be curious to see how matchmaking works from tomorrow. Because it was bad in the beta and still the case here. Couldn't find anyone to matchmake in the first available mission and I remember in the beta that even if you did they didn't seem to ready up so you're stuck waiting for a while. It was better playing with friends but solo queuing might be a pain still.

    About 45% through the campaign playing on hard and here's a thoughts/issues I've found:

    - During an Iron Man mission, the jump button stopped working as did the back direction on the left stick. Had to reload the level.
    - On a really tough mission with myself and 2 AI companions, I died a bunch of times. On 50% of these deaths, I didn't get knocked out like you should, and instantly died and failed the mission, despite 2 AI companions alive and well.
    - I really don't think this will hold up on higher difficulties/end-game. It's just way too chaotic and it's impossible to be in control of a situation where there was a bunch of enemies, especially in cramped spaces (which there are a lot of). Often times there's not enough time to avoid/dodge a red telegraph, other times there's just shit hitting you with no warning and you're insta-gibbed. I've died a bunch of times and gone "wtf??" and never feel like I could have prevented it. Which sucks in a game like this.

    Patiently waiting for Patrice Kloptak's verdict before I decide to part with my hard earned money.

    Attempted a few hours on multiplayer with some mates tonight, absolute shambles from a technical standpoint unfortunately.

    - Matchmaking is still hopeless.
    - Frequent crashes back to dashboard
    - Infinite load screens.
    - Enemies falling through scenery making it impossible to progress through a mission.
    - Various strike team related bugs, missions launch for some members but not others, etc, etc.
    - Objectives disappearing from missions.

    God help them tomorrow when it launches for everyone.

    Aside from that, the campaign continues to be decent and the multiplayer looks like it might actually have potential long-term if they support it well.

    Oh don’t worry the email I got this morning excitedly claims you’ll be facing new threats and stories for years to come.

    Has their ever been a more disappointing loost system for this type of game? Nearly at the end of the campaign and I've not looked at a single piece of loot. I do think the fact it doesn't change appearance hurts my interest in it, but the big problem is that it comes so thick and fast and with such minor upgrades that its easier just to hold l2 every once and a while to just equip the best stuff. I wonder if it will be different at endgame but it's not a good sign.
