Forums - Sales - The Order 1886 sales nearly 600,000 copies in 2 days. #SmearCampaign=Failed

Some journalists have a heavy political agenda (look at MH4U reviews). Fortunately, we, the people, will not bow to such manipulation & propaganda.

OP must be having a laugh. This thread got a huge response

Isn't The Order overtracked?


I've been saying that as well, and it turns out I was right.

Also, the title says 600K, but it seems it's closer to 500K.

Possibly even lower. I wonder what would make someone would buy this game digitally. With no way to trade it in you're pretty much just throwing money away

Reminds me of the time when Heavenly Sword was lukewarmly received and a lot of PS3 owners were defending it. Now that the PS3 have an amazing library of exclusives, and the need to defend the system no longer exist, most of those same people accept the game was mediocre. I expect the same thing happening to most of The Ordor's "lovers" at the end of the PS4's life.

Though not really. Not only is the game still praised, after all these years, but it makes several people's best ps3 games lists or best hack and slash games lists. It's one of the best games I've played and the reason I bought Enslaved Odysee and DMC. You may have missed the praise, but as someone who likes the game, I can tell you that I see it all the time.

That is why it sold less than Dying Light, Evolve and Dragon Ball digitally.

I was giving a hard time to Sunset Overdrive and called it a flop (and got banned once for that, even though I still think it sold disappointingly), but this seems an even bigger disappontment sales-wise, especially considering double the install base.

My reviews for PS4 games:
Killzone: Shadow Fall - 4/10
Tomb Raider - Definitive Edition - 9/10
The Last of Us Remaster - 9/10
inFAMOUS Second Son - 7/10
Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes - 6/10
Diablo III - 7/10
Velocity 2K - 6/10
Destiny - 7/10
Shadow of Mordor - 6/10
The Order: 1886 - 8/10

I have no problem rating Sony games poorly, I just really enjoyed the Order...



Owner of PS4 Pro, Xbox One, Switch, PS Vita, and 3DS

The smear campaign what uncalled for, this game had nothing worth singling out... Not my favourite, I sold it as soon as I finished it, just like Far Cry 4 by example... it's just not a very good game, but it does not have the horrendous smell attached to it that some made it to be... especially coming from a gaming press core that cannot even notice buggy games.

why would an agenda  leave some evidence lol, mass media agenda, and other agenda is proven if it's shows on the result not by evidence it self. You think you will believe if i am showing a lot of evidence. The answer is you will REFUSE to  believe. This discussion will only end bad because you have shows that you from the start already deny every possible scenario.

So deny all you can, and keep replying my comment and the Order is keep selling lol.

You only think there is agenda because its poor scores run contrary  to your own pro-Sony agenda.

so you just telling i did this only for sony, too bad i am not that low.   there is a lot of thing that you don't know about thing in this world my friend. To bad before you discussing with me is better you try to learn what is a console warrior, and sales researcher  both are different.

" I don't expect you (or many others) would be claiming as it a smear campaign if it wasn't a Sony exclusive being panned."

 

hmm OK, so you just again trying to accuse me that i am defending Playstation brand and their first party games, u know what you don't know me and i don't know u, which another prove why u cannot trust people on Internet, hey.......... Egypt got a revolution thanks to facebook, you will be shocked how people with money could buy influence and thanks to internet it even worst.

but again thank you for quoting me, it will be useless to discuss with u if you from the start until now still accusing me as Playstation White Knight. So hasta lavista, sayonara.

Yeah, more like 400k max. Legs will be horrible too (unless it gets bundels which it inevitably will)

Mediocre sales for a medicore game.


400k Max? Really? You can't be serious. Is this real life? lol

as in about 400k first 2 days, not 600k.

it was overtracked 100k in the US if Im not mistaken... most of that would be first few days. 

Says who? Proof?

If anything the game is under-tracked and that 559,000 VGC total naturally doesn't even include digital sales. And before you harp that it was #4 on digital it was only out for 8 days the whole month. Evolve and Dying Light the whole month and Dragon Ball Z won't come close to selling 500,000 first week so it's spot at number 3 is obviously due to die hard DBZ fans.
