dilan147 2 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 They dont speak the fanboy language cause they have their own way of Communicating, Money. They dont give a damn if u buy Gears 5 for PC or X1 as long as u buy it. They could easily delay the release for the gears pc version by several months and watch Xboxes fly off shelves but they have infinite money and just like their Zune mp3 brand that failed Miserably, they are destined to sink the Xbox brand aswell. On May 21st 2013 they nearly succeeded!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DynamiteCop 2,084 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Yeah except they're posting record numbers for the division, so I'm not sure what you're talking about. Also PC has virtually no impact on Xbox hardware sales, since PC and Play Anywhere came into the fray the ratio of sales has been completely untouched however they've seen revenue gains because PC players are now buying software as well. Their existing market is still encapsulated and drives itself just as it has, but they now have the added benefit of additional revenue they were once seeing 15+ years ago yet decided to drop for whatever reason. PC support is a return to form for Microsoft, not any kind of divergence from what we've seen in the past. They're doing great on all fronts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hardware sales are not some solidified line of consistency, there's positive and negative tolerances. Edited February 9, 2019 by DynamiteCop! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For an example X sales tapering off a bit and S sales increasing would bode a unit increase with a revenue decrease. I feel like I'm talking to a child. Furthermore the X and S saw multiple sales throughout the year which would also decrease revenue with again no implication on unit sales. Edited February 9, 2019 by DynamiteCop!

They love to spit in xbox fans faces time and time again, give them no exclusives, make half assed low budget games (then prioritize them for windows 10) and on top of, charge console customers $60 a year to fund the hermit's games. New Minecradt only for PC Gears tactics only for pc AoE only for PC then they'll harass and taunt xbox fans on twitter. don't give these guys your money. supporting 'xbox" or whatever they're calling their scheme nowadays is on par with buying products tested on animals, shoes made by slave labor ethiopoins, etc. Phil, Mike, etc are literal scumbags laughing at you for supporting their product lmao Edited February 9, 2019 by Bodycount N Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For any diehards left on Xbox the message was clear, fuck you, you're not our priority. If you want console gaming, trust us, go for the PS4, we'll show you how good it is by streaming Sony's well-made, budgeted games on our MIXR channels LMFAO MS at console = we're all gamers. stop the fanboy war. (because we lost so terribly). please don't laugh at us. Good games are not ammo in system wars. there are no systemwars. we didn't sucker you out of $500. It's ok we didn't win because we're all winners. the talk of a true cuck LOSER. And these guys think ANYONE is following them into next gen? you seriously stupid enough to slap down ANOTHER $500 on a loser brand?

Razer blew the whistle on it before Microsoft, they pulled it down after this article was posted. It was included as an officially supported game for Razer Turret, had the logo design up and everything. It's an Xbox/PC game. https://comicbook.com/gaming/2019/01/08/gears-tactics-coming-xbox-one-keyboard-mouse-support/ Edited February 9, 2019 by DynamiteCop! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing has been announced... so it's not on Xbox One yet. For all we know, it could be streamed to Xbox via xCloud or in-home streaming, and allow you to play with your keyboard and mouse on the XO Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, because Microsoft's one and only development partner specifically for mouse and keyboard supported games made a mistake, added the custom logo and everything...

Official Razer keyboard and mouse integration into Gears Tactics with Chroma support... available on the PC version, which made them add it to the list by mistake. It has since been removed. Either the game is coming, and has a timed exclusivity to PC, or it isn't coming at all to xbox. Doesn't matter... it's a game designed primarily for PC. Bodycount's point still stands lmao.

The reality is they're aware of exactly what games are and are not coming, what games need support and those that do not. They're the company managing the hardware and integration for christ sakes. They'd know better than everyone, it's pretty clear that they jumped the gun and added this without realization it hadn't publicly announced yet. You're gonna get fucked on this just like Halo 5, and just like The Master Chief Collection. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
