Lol I do that just in case anyone wants more information that I share via YouTube and Twitter.
These write-ups only take about a hour or so to do depending on how much information is shared out in the Social Media world. u/BenIrvo is the sneaky one as he likes to hide his answers like he hides his alleged koalas. :)
Overall I create this content for you and the community as I know not everyone is able to follow the info as much as I can.
I hide my answers?? How? I don’t mean to :)

There is matchmaking so you can make more friends!
You guys are the best. I will dedicate my Storm Thor build to you.
Unless you are Australian you can’t play a Thor build. It’s in the code. Soz.
Any chance on a Christmas present allowing us to get a chance to jump in before January? That alone would bring me tears of joy.
Nope :(
That was a seriously great stream!
Question though...for the storm, if a group of enemies are primed with lightning damage and I detonate that with a lightning detonator for the combo the electrical aoe will spread to the enemies. Does the aoe damage stack? Meaning a group of 5 enemies all hit with lightning will all damage eachother?
Yep
Read moreI was originally looking into wether or not Anthem would have cross platform play. While it looks like that may or may not happen, I ran into an article that spoke about cross platform saves instead.

This would solve a major problem for me in that I actually have a need to play it on both PC and PS4. My wife has a disability that prevents her from being able to sit up at a desk and play PC games anymore. It's just too inconvenient to use a M/KB setup laying down and controller support for games on PC is a shit show most of the time. So, she has pretty much moved to being a console gamer. She is all about Anthem right now as she loves pretty much everything to do with BioWare so I already bought two copies of Anthem for us on PS4. But...I have a lot of friends that will be playing on PC and don't min...

A Producer Bromance Emerges
Gameplay Producer Darrin McPherson and Lead Producer Ben Irving sat down with the Anthem community to present the highly anticipated stream covering loot and progression. It was a stream filled with new information such as loot rarities, random rolls called, gear score, new passive slots unveiled, how combos/statuses work, and even some gameplay with a high powered Ranger at the end. We’ll cover these in their own sections one by one to ensure that we are able to cover them thoroughly and clearly. You can watch the entire stream here.
Before we begin, we should point out the disclaimer that Ben gave n...
Nice post :)
I want to play Anthem. That is all. I don't want to wait anymore.
Sorry :(

Can only be detonated once. So first person.
so any status effect from any Javelin can be combo'd with your javelin's specific Combo effect. so regardless of freeze, electric, acid, fire, all 4 status effects will always prime for my javelins Combo effect? i guess im just trying to understand what exactly you mean when you say the status effect applied does not matter.
Yes. What you said.
So I know we will get different landing animations and a victory pose. But for the love of god I want a few different flying animations. The base ones are ok atm but I want the classic superman one arm out extended while the other arm is close to his chest/stomach. 2 arms out and when you change directions if you go left the right arm slides back like your breaking and same for the other side. Maybe have a flying attack in are one arm cocked back ready to punch a mob in air. atm we only have a ground pound while in air when you try to melee. I know I only put down a few examples but Id honestly think it would add to the uniqueness a lot.
Interesting idea... Can't promise anything, but I'll kick it over to the systems team 😊.
Hey Ben not sure if you're still on to answer my question but does the AoE effect of the Lighting only trigger once when it becomes "primed" or does it happen multiple times during the duration of being "primed"
thanks again for all you do for us. You're the best
Only once primed
When you reach the level threshold and you choose the Jav you want, is it available to you right away or do you choose a Jav, then do the mission to unlock it, and then are able able to play it?
available immediately
Can't y'all just release this tomorrow or something? Pretty please?
Will consider it. Hold on. No. :)
Is there any difference between detonations based on energy type for Ranger and Colossus?
Obviously Storm spreads the AoE, Interceptor carries it with them, etc. If Ranger detonates an acid primer or a fire primer, are those combo effects identical?
Yes, the same.
