I can't believe they're getting away with this crap. The apology on Steam was laughable.

TitanUp4171d ago (Edited 4171d ago )

what apology?

acemonkey4171d ago

i bought it when the game first came out months ago...what the lie about on steam?

-MD-4171d ago (Edited 4171d ago )

They listed a ton of information on the game's store page which was 100% false and didn't give any indication that the game was still in Alpha.

400sq km maps? Try less than 10 (yes 10).

Plagasx4171d ago

This game is getting so much hate I almost feel bad for the developers...

Are_The_MaDNess4171d ago

kinda Disagree with you there, its THEIR call to put the game out there for sale even when its not done yet. and over the last half year it looks like there haven't been a change in the game at all. all this release was a money grab for the Devs. and publishers.

Devs. and publishers need to learn (now) that they need to have some sort of quality expectancy when they are asking for a Price no matter how low, but the fact is that they advertised it as a finished and full game when its far from the Truth

Hydralysk4171d ago (Edited 4171d ago )

Feeling sorry for developers that don't deliver on promises, or even make sure the game works as intended, just lets them know they don't need to worry about cutting corners.

There's such a thing as being too whiny, or letting your grievances go to far, but people tend to forget that developers are made up of people as well, and some of them are just as bad as the fanboys that populate their forums.

Are_The_MaDNess4171d ago

have you even read anything about the game the last few months? they have failed many, many times.
the video bellow is covering most of this in a nerd rage.

Kennesu4171d ago

lol you guys need to chill the fuck out i spend more on cigs on a day basics then the game costs.

SnakeCQC4171d ago

false advertisements and flat out fraud dont matter to you?

Are_The_MaDNess4171d ago (Edited 4171d ago )

and don't mid you its illegal in most counties

just saying :/

Skate-AK4171d ago

That's nothing to brag about.

Snookies124171d ago

Looks like I'll stick to Day Z thank you.

Nice. It's really cool that PC players get to play this masterpiece.

PrinceOfAnger3d ago

It has surpassed spider man now
it's 71k+
game did this with way shorter time than spider man.

itsmebryan2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

@prince
I'm confused. Does that number mean total players at one time playing like a snapshot
or total sales? If it's the former that's not very accurate because I know I'm not the only person that buys games and plays them later and that number is not included.

RNTody3d ago

Great, I loved this game. Definitely think it's Sucker Punch's best work to date!

rippermcrip3d ago

Is this going to be the new thing thing? Articles about Steam reviews? Which of course was in response to the false article about the review bombings in the first place.

Christopher3d ago

Hey, just a heads up that the new owners did open news to Steam updates, but we try our best to not allow them to go on daily updates unless relevant to some other news. I understand this isn't everyone's cup and tea and sympathize, but the door has been open. If you feel it's 'too much' please do PM me or submit a ticket to the mod team. Thank you.

I came here to post this link in that specific article. 84 perce t is pretty good. How many bad reviews were there like 5

GamerzElite3d ago

This is good game and Ghost eliminate all fake outrage.

CrimsonWing693d ago (Edited 3d ago )

I always get confused by this, but is 72k good sales numbers for a game? I keep seeing games fail at selling 2.5 million and that they need to be on multiple platforms but is an additional 72k adding much?

Fishy Fingers3d ago

Im not sure how its confusing :\

72k actively playing. Not 72k sold.

A good example is Helldivers 2, 6m sold, 450k (at its peak) active players.

But how many swords swung is what we're all really waiting for.

shinoff21833d ago

Lmao. How many swords swung. I was hoping for how many steps

wesnytsfs2d ago

And its how many years old from initial release.

Crows903d ago

72k is concurrent
...that is not the sold figure.

Michiel19893d ago

for one they already had a huge launch on the playstation, they don't need to sell 5m to make the porting to pc profitable and as pointed out below that number you see is just the people playing it at this moment.

Plague-Doctor273d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Also from the insomniac leak we know these PC ports are a quick turnaround and budgeted around $2-4 million. At 100k sales they break even including Steams cut. They may not sell millions but they are a great ROI

elazz3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

72k concurrent. That is a global number. People who bought the game are not playing at the same time because of timezones, working schedules, holidays, events... There is no good rule of thumb but you can extrapolate based on other games that also released sales data. Then it is clear that the PC release alone accounts for at least 500K copies sold on steam, maybe closer to 700-800K. Probably will sell over a million this extended weekend.

According to steamspy and other data gathering sites games like Days Gone, Spider Man, God Of War, Horizon Zero Dawn have sold 2 to 5 million copies on Steam. So I expect Ghost to reach similar numbers. Probably even surpass it.
