Yeah, pretty much the rep system here.

Drakul 07-06-2010 10:46 PM

Our rep system is actually better, I think.

If someone gets neg repped here, it eventually shows in the form of red boxes. XBL doesn't show it because the stars never go down. Why have a star rank if everyone shoots up to five stars after any feedback, good or bad?

Kalyx triaD 07-06-2010 11:03 PM

Both can be abused is what I mean.

I got weird reviews myself.

Emperor Smeat 07-06-2010 11:28 PM

Activision wants a a bigger share of PSN and XBLA revenues for the DLC and games they create. Not sure if they have ever released anything on WiiWare but even that would be affected for revenue shares.

If they were to get that demand it would only be a matter of time before the other big companies request personal shares and might rise prices of DLC or games.

How do you view your reviews?

Drakul 07-07-2010 07:36 AM

Press the Xbox button on the control pad, move to the last page on the menu, select "profile" and then "view rep".

My rep has taken a beating since playing SSFIV online. I'm almost at 50/50 good/bad rep with most people claiming I'm unsporting.
I had no idea it was against the rules to stay ontop of your opponent or not let them hit you. Or is it that hard to believe anyone can use Zangief so I must be cheating. :roll:

Funky Fly 07-07-2010 09:24 AM

You are a god damn monster with Zangief. Lesser men than you or me simply cannot handle such utter defeat. Take a moment to stroke your manly beard in observance of your general manliness. If you do not have a beard, then stroke what is most assuredly a Zangief-like patch of chest hair.

lol, I had no idea people looked at that/cared.

Verbose Minch 07-07-2010 03:38 PM

My rep is at 31 and 69 exclusively because of TF2 on 360. People don't like getting dominated. :(

Hey look at that, Bounding found it's way into Virtua Fighter. Still gonna give this a chance when the (eventual) console version drops, but everything that urks me about VF is still present. Guess I should 'get over it'.

You should het over your hatred of awesomeness.

Also, HOLY FUCK YES. Still not holding my breath for a console port.

I assume this is just a rebalancing with some new minor mechanics thrown in? They're getting downright Street Fighter 2 with this.

Also, I will probably never play VF5. Worst $10 I ever spent. Seriously can't get past the inputs/floatiness.

And they don't like it.

Have you got Leliana's Story DLC yet?

Funky Fly 07-09-2010 06:41 PM

Yeah, haven't sat down to play it yet. I'm backlogged.

#BROKEN Hasney 07-09-2010 06:49 PM

And being held accountable is a smoke screen for marketing monies. Fucking kotaku.

Ah well, it won't make a difference but I won't be buying SC2 anymore.

LoDownM 07-09-2010 06:51 PM

Blizzard canceled it today.

So pissed, it won't work right for me, Leliana doesn't show up in cuts scenes and when I actually play she's bald :(

Only the forum part. Real ID will still be needed for some things, it appears.

PC.

Funky Fly 07-09-2010 07:03 PM

Good news: that will probably get patched immediately. Do you have any mods active? They could also be interfering with your game.

It's optional when it comes to in game(Atleast in WoW, not in SC2 beta and don't plan on buying it so don't know).

Turned them all off and even turned Awakening off, still does it. Haven't looked to see if it's a problem with the DLC or just something on my end tho. It does make the game unplayable, atleast for me, as I'm one of the people that actually liked Leliana.

...It looks like we'll get our first look at Sega's Thor title at the "Marvel Interactive: Marvel Video Games" panel. Also on hand will be David Jaffe to discuss the return of Twisted Metal, Capcom to show off Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Visceral Games will bring Dead Space 2, Fable III gets it own panel, Obsidian talks about writing Fallout: New Vegas, and Cliff Bleszinski and the team at Epic are probably going to blow some minds with a live demo of Gears of War 3 (with "key announcements").

Does Sega have the rights to the entire Marvel Movieverse? Because that sucks if they do. There was no improvement from the first turd at all with Iron Man 2 and The Incredible Hulk was only just a little better.

Kalyx triaD 07-09-2010 10:27 PM

Just the Avengers-movieverse. Marvel movies in other deals can have games from others (Origins Wolverine).

That's what I meant. Movies that Marvel is doing themselves. Activision has all the X-Men and Spider-Man titles.

#BROKEN Hasney 07-10-2010 04:31 AM

DA:2 is sounding more like a Mass Effecty console RPG.

Not complaining, I'm just assuming there's going to be a backlash.

Funky Fly 07-10-2010 05:10 AM

Haven't heard anything. Mass Effect isn't bad tho. As long as the story is still top notch, I'm gonna keep playing because Bioware games tend to have good gameplay anyway.

#BROKEN Hasney 07-10-2010 05:22 AM

"More responsive action combat" and there's only one hero with a full story that's human that you can make male or female.

The focus on one guy has seemed to make the game sound more epic though, the story spans a decade.
