I sent Joey a friend request last night. I hope he accepts.

I've started to buy new games from Best Buy instead of Amazon since Amazon starting charging sales tax.

I doubt Battlefront 2 will be one of those. I may be wrong but I haven't seen any Black Friday deals for it.tragabigzanda wrote:I'll probably just wait for this sale to go live next Friday for Battlefront 2.

How so? I played the beta and it was terribly imbalanced (walker assault on Hoth was at least, but that kind of makes sense) but then I didn’t actually buy the game until a year later and it seemed to be a lot more balanced - except for the heroes, but it sounds like they’ve addressed that issue. What did I miss in that first year or so?numbers wrote:My only problem with Battlefront 1 was how when they patched the game they basically made it a completely different game strategically.

They did a lot of buffs/nerfs as time went on, but I think the biggest change was that after a while, a lot of the casual players moved on, while people who really wanted to compete stuck around.mf wrote:How so?

Yeah, you guys are right. Here's an updated link with the games listed:LoathedVermin72 wrote:Yeah I think BF2 is too new to get a BF deal already.
You didn't like The New Order, or The Old Blood? I loved TNO, but heard TOB was no bueno.LoathedVermin72 wrote:Even though I didn't like the last one, I might grab Wolfenstein II on BF. Best Buy has it for $25.
Jesus, I didn't realize there were so many. I played TNO. I have trouble with FPS games that lack polish.tragabigzanda wrote:You didn't like The New Order, or The Old Blood?

Ahh yeah I could see the casual players dropping off. I think there was probably a spike of new players around the time that I came back on board due to a major price drop and some free weekends on the DLC, but it’s definitely back to the hardcore players again now.tragabigzanda wrote:They did a lot of buffs/nerfs as time went on, but I think the biggest change was that after a while, a lot of the casual players moved on, while people who really wanted to compete stuck around.mf wrote:How so?

But they do mention other Flash Sales, so I'm still going to hold out hope that they'll at least do like a 10% discount on the game for the holiday or something.
