$29.99/$39.99 for a multiplayer only game? Wow, they must be pretty confident in their product.
$20 too much but I will admit the game looks fun.
Well you can fuck right off with that.
Far too expensive for a multiplayer only game. It should be half that.
I was expecting a €15 game. Fuck paying €40.
[quote]Garden Warfare can be sold at a discount because the plan is to continue expanding the game after launch. There's also no single-player campaign, as the entire experience is focused on multiplayer. "We definitely want to build on the game once it's launched," Wiebe told us. "We're definitely taking a cue from Plants vs Zombies 2. Using DLC and new content updates, we want to keep players engaged in the long haul."[/quote] So basically it won't just cost absurd amounts of money, but also have all the crap from the second one. (microtransactions) Way to keep running decent games into the ground, EA.
I would have bought this game but even if I wanted to after the price tag announcement, I can't because it's a Shitbox One exclusive.
Titanfall is $60 and multiplayer only but I didn't see anyone bitching about that.

Would be cool if the DLC was more like Battlefield's, and less like normal F2P games. Judging from the gameplay videos, this looks pretty fun and it would suck if it had pay to win shit, but I doubt it considering that it's being sold for 30/40 bucks.

[QUOTE=ColossalSoft;42069446]Titanfall is $60 and multiplayer only but I didn't see anyone bitching about that.[/QUOTE] Or L4D, which doesn't have a singleplayer and was at least $80 here on release (it has bots but if that qualifies as singleplayer then games like Counter-Strike would be singleplayer).

The game literally has a section for "singleplayer"
Why is this even a fucking shooter what the hell?
The gameplay looks really fun, its like dungeon defenders. $30 for most likely 20+ hours of gameplay is worth it....
[QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;42070362]Why is this even a fucking shooter what the hell?[/QUOTE] marketing appeal
[QUOTE=Keychain;42070334]But Left 4 Dead is a co-op game, not a deathmatch game.

[QUOTE=Keychain;42070334]But Left 4 Dead is a co-op game, not a deathmatch game.

And I wouldn't really say L4D is a singleplayer game because it has bots (and the offline games against bots and online games are the exact same anyways). Can we say that TF2 is singleplayer because it has that offline bot match mode?

Looking forward to this.
Didn't expect the Plants vs. Zombies games to turn into cash cow. What with Plants Vs. Zombies 2 eventual paywall and all.
