CD3 should never have this type of pressure. It should be a mid sized niche game, instead now its billed as a AAA next big thing.
MS set it for disappointment.

I thought it was the worst looking game at E3.
Lol, of course you do.
Can you tell me something that looked worse? The trailer wasn't even real gameplay. It was CGI and cut shots and still looked noticeably worse than everything else being shown.
It's been at every E3 since 2014 and they still don't feel confident enough to show an actual gameplay demo.
Looks great saw some comparisons from past e3's to current. Just saw windows gaming central article about Dave Jones not being involved anymore. Epic has purchased his cloud company which was powering Crackdown 3 multiplayer. It sounds like MS isnt going to pay royalities to epic and instead use its own cloud tech for multiplayer. Which is probably why the game took so long on top of polishing it up.
I'd be shocked if it's cancelled. It would be far more embarrassing than even Fable or Scalebound cancellations.
But the game looks like a mess. Probably like a 6/10 type affair, which means maybe some fun could be had. But it's funny after all the hype of "teh cloud" and the environments, it looks sorta low budget. The last gen games were technical laggards as well. It is what it is.
The only thing that impressed me was that physics tech demo they showed off years back. We haven't seen anything close to that since, so I'm kind of skeptical that it will even be in the finished game. No mention of the "cloud" either. I guess they concluded using cloud computing to aid with physics calculations just isn't practical right now.
I know they are saying that level of destruction is only available in MP, but surely, after all this development time, they would have something to show off. That's what everyone wants to see - proper destruction, not the crap we saw in the e3 trailer. I think we didn't see it because it's simply not there.

Agreed. Same thing with Sea of Thieves. People went into that game expecting AAA levels of content, when quite clearly that was never the intention.
The chances are super high that Crackdown 3 with StormCloud support on Mighty MonsterBox will be the all time..... GOAT. lol
G'head and laugh, I just did. :P
There's more chance of @SecretPolice not using :P at the end of every post then there is of Crackdown 3 actually being good
:D
