Thinking of trying Normal first here. If it's too easy is there an option to increase the difficulty of the current playthrough or is that coming later? :shifty:

Considering I’m generally poor at FPS games I’ll just be sticking with the normal difficulty :lol:

Is this cross platform with PC?

Controller v Keyboard/Mouse is just going to mean tears of woe.

Yes, and it's already causing trouble, thanks to PC cheaters.

In Ranked you can choose controller or keyboard mouse inputs only if you want.

Surely that should have been one of the main things to work out once you'd made the "let's make it open world" decision... I dread to think how long it's going to be until the main game is "complete"

Gonna be pretty much impossible to avoid spoilers, too :x


Cortana finally puts on some clothes :o .

I can’t download the 62Gb file yet. Be good to get it done overnight ready for 1800 tomorrow.

Not unlocking the game until 6pm launch day is dumb.

Millions of people trying to download the same 60GB files at the same time. It’s going to be a shitshow.

Unfortunately you can't pre-load DLC on Xbox. The advantage in the long run you'll be able to delete the Campaign if you wish. Hopefully it'll download in time for a session late evening but I doubt it.

Then they should have let each region start the download at a reasonable time, instead of having to wait for America to wake up.

What the strawberry float. Hey, it all comes out on Wednesday at 6pm, but none of you will be able to play it then… sorry. Apart from the reviewers, double sorry. You’ll play it at some point, get over it…..

We’ll manage. But what a shambles of a launch that it can’t be preloaded to play on release, like every other game.
