I wish dissidia will develop a community Have monetized tournaments like fighting game Juggernauts such as Tekken and Street fighter. Some villains are actually playable on this game. So people who love antagonistic characters can play as them.

Now this seems to be another great one. I understand it's just beta, but even so it has to be a great game! Monetized tournaments wouldn't be a bad idea though.

I always like the open beta session and as long as you do not expect perfection it is usually pretty impressive. I also like the idea of the monetized tournaments and could definitely get on board with that.

 

[to7update]

Yep, we know it's unfinished, it's not perfect, but as you say, at the same time it's impressive, and it's our chance to play something before the official release. For gamers only obviously!

 

[Freeda]

This is definitely an impressive game. Whether it's finished or not, the verdict is unanimous. I do agree that monetized tournaments would add some serious value to this game.

 

[to7update]

Beta versions are great for players, because we can play it for free, but also for developers, as they can check the existing bugs. Overall it's a win-win situation.

 

[mar06]

Beta games are better than usual game and lot of player will love to have it especially it is available to download it with any problems.

 

[to7update]

Mmm, I don't agree that beta games are better! I mean, they can be very good, but they are named beta precisely because they are still being tested and we can find bugs, so it's hard that they are as good as the final versions.

 

[Freeda]

I guess it boils down to how you look at it personally. If you have played these free beta games and enjoyed them, then it's understandable that you would think that they are great, but for others it may turn out to be an extremely annoying and disappointing experience trying to play a game that has all those problems.

Beta games are better than usual game and lot of player will love to have it especially it is available to download it with any problems.

What does that even mean ? How are games in beta better than a finished product if that is what you meant ?

Yep, true. Playing a free beta version of a game it's not the same thing as playing a paid game, a finished version, so who is playing beta has to realize that. We might be at a really exciting point of the game, and it can simply crash.

 

[Maestro]

I agree, the character customization is one of the best features on this one not that the game itself is bad.
