For Homefront, if you like shooters and the gameplay is as interesting as it looks in the videos, are you really going to care for optional micro? Probably not, I won't considering no other "player" will have an advantage over me considering it's a single player/co-op game. I don't really see it as a big issue here myself, and it will help fund the free content additions they claim to be adding. As we know what publishers are like after a game is finished, this will allow the devs to carry on with it I hope.

Quoting: drjomsNot pay to win they say. So if it's true, seems like very good game.
I have seen games with micro transactions which were all right.

In some games it is done fine, CS:GO has a good balance for example.

Dota 2 and TF2 have a nice balance, not the best examples since they are free, but they still do it nicely.

They confirmed to me it will be available on twitch after the livestream, so anyone who misses it will be able to watch which is good news.

Quoting: 14Maybe you have reason not to, but it'd be cool if you made videos with commentary of you playing the game. They wouldn't necessarily have to be really long like giantbomb quick looks, but a few minutes of real gameplay + commentary goes nicely with a trailer and text.

I would love to do them myself, but I am rather pressed for time a lot nowadays. Even a ten minute video can end up taking hours to get correct after cutting down gameplay, editing and so on.

Quoting: GuestWhat do you mean by "with permadeath"? If I die in game, I have to buy game again to play it? :D

Was that a genuine question? It means you have to start all over again.

Quoting: GuestThe graphs are blank for me, except the first one.

Hmm seems Firefox rendering is a bit pants for an svg included as a normal image. Works fine in Chrome.

The graph lines don't even show up in Firefox when set as an html object, wtf is Firefox doing hmmm.
