What’s getting patched? The captain farm?
Captains are untouched.
The removed legendaries from chests.
They added legendaries as a possible reward for side quest completion (reward goes straight in inventory)
They removeed Epics from the vendors.

cool. I might play through the story again and do the all sides. I need to optimise my Devastator
 
Got 2 legendaries in about 2 hours.

The Thunderbird assault rifle is cool with its lightning effect and attack.
 
The only legendary weapon I've been able to get is the Iceberg sniper rifle. It freezes enemies but I'm a terrible shot and you need to get crits for this weapon to be really effective. I'd like the Thunderbird, which I commonly refer to as the Thunder Lord because of Destiny. But I don't want to burn myself out of the game by farming the demo.

Speaking of the demo, the devs must have done something right to get me and many others to farm as hard as we can with just a demo. What I really want to see is a how different armor sets will look. In the demo most of the armor looks the same no matter what class you're playing as. I know it all low level stuff, I just hope for radical designs just like the legendary weapons seem to have.

This game is a hard day 1 purchase for me. Its a lot of fun solo and I can only imagine how much more fun it will be with a full group. I've tried to do coop in the demo but matchmaking is super slow and I gave up every time I tried.

I Imagine most people are playing the demo either by themselves or with friends. I’ve never been able to find a match outside of friends invites.

I hope matchmaking is working better when the game releases. But the way this game is structured doesn't fill me with confidence in the developers technical capabilities. By that, I mean how there seems to be a loading screen for almost everything in this game. Need to walk through a door for the next instanced mission, loading. Need to speak to a quest giver in a room, loading. It just feels dated compared to a game like Destiny which is heavily instanced but manages to do a much better job of hiding the loading and handling things on the back-end without players looking at loading screens. Fortunately the SSD on nextgen consoles helps a lot.

Only matches that I have managed to get into are Tier 2 and it pisses me off because I want a challenge. Players are only coop-ing to farm.

They did do something right, they included content people want.

Just farm in small doses. 10 mins here, 15 mins there. Your collection will grow.

The legendary armour looks awesome, and according the accolades, there are 96 legendary armour sets. That is a lot. Hope it isn't a misprint.

I hear ya when it comes to pacing ones self when it comes to farming. Unfortunately for me I can become obsessed and get a kind of tunnel vision when it comes to farming for loot I want. Its happened to me in Destiny, Division & Borderlands franchises. I started a Trickster and only played a couple missions before I went back to the Devastator to farm for more attempts at legendaries since I know that'll be my main class.

The demo is a lot of fun and I have a feeling there are low expectations for this game with almost zero marketing behind it. I just hope it blows up and becomes super successful so Square can take notice and learn it was a mistake to put almost all their backing behind a big name (Avengers). That they learn the most important aspect of any game is how fun the game is, not the name and association of a popular brand.

2millions have download for the demo.....

The free demo is the MARKETING. Interestingly its also the most consumer friendly & honest.

You also need to remember it is a looter shooter and the crafting system requires the looting of gear to unlock abilities to craft gear with. So, you are going to want to get these legendaries twice. One to dismantle and one to keep.

Also, burning out, is that really possible here? As soon as tge game launches you get instant accesss to new content, legendaries, abilities, Epic gear, crafting, etc

The game seems to have been received well. I guess it will depend on streamers and content creators to make it a hit or failure.
 
This game doesn’t need to sell GTA5 or Halo numbers to be a smashing success.
Obviously. But doesn't change the fact that 2 million isn't alot. How many of that small number will actually buy it? Certainly not all of them.

It isn't just a finacial issue either. It is billed as a coop game, most players in games like these are solo players. A healthy base is important. Then lets not forget that a huge portion, if not the majority, wont even finish the game.
 
2 Million downloads for a soon to be released game without marketing muscle behind it is a helluva lot, in my opinion. Hopefully Square will commit to at least a modest marketing budget to get the word out about this game to more casual (non forum going) gamers.

But all you did was make an excuse as to why it has a small number.

Hopefully it is alot higher now, cause that 2 mil was from 1 week.

I'm not sure how 2mil downloads is a small number in any situation. But my mention of the lack of marketing was to highlight how well the demo seems to be doing without major advertisement.

I have no idea how many copies needs to be sold to be profitable. But a few million downloads for a new IP from a relatively unknown developer seems like a good sign to me.

I was gonna say... am I the only one who thinks 2 million is pretty damn good for a new IP from- you used the exact phrase I was thinking- a relatively unknown developer?

Obviously not all those will buy it. Or rather a more accurate statement is, We don’t know how it’ll sell. That remains to be seen.

It's free. Only 2 million from like 250 million gamers downloaded a free demo of well praised game coming soon that is in a popular genre. Yeah, that is not alot.

Well praised.....its only been out barely two weeks with minimal gaming news coverage and with most likely a spike in youtube creators making vids about farming. Its generated a slight buzz among gamers who look for gaming news, but the way you put its like the demo has gone viral. :laugh:

Meh, it doesn't matter. I just hope the full release is fun.
