aaaaaaaand I'm dead.

well that could've gone better

still nfi what killed me or how

so that's frustrating

sound design is rock solid thus far

Second game was better

the other players make it arguably a little too paralyzing to get things done because you're constantly worried that one of them is hiding somewhere, getting ready to stiff you

It also randomly went 'oh btw only five minutes left get to an extraction point'

and I'm like 'wtf?'

So I start heading to an XP but don't make it before the timer expires and the game declares that now my character is dead

💯

things like that tend to shit me

but the overall experience is one I'm going to pursue

no loot boxes or microtransactions, so let's hope it stays that way

need to rebind the keys, too

the map key is tab

so if you're running (holding down shift) and try to open the map, it opens the steam overlay

Broke: Gaming makes men lazy.

Woke: Gaming turns men into psychopathic murderers.

fuck me this game is unforgiving

also I think it incentivizes murdering other players just a little too highly

on the flipside, when you take your time and everything just falls into place, it's also very satisfying

last game I found the bounty's hideout, but at the point should've done a 180 and exited the zone

would've still got a decent reward, plus my character wouldn't have been fuckin' butchered either

But it was my first time getting that far in the game and I gotta figure out how to deal with that motherfucker one way or another

ayyyyyy won a game

Pretty sure every other human player was a corpse, but I still sat around checking *e v e r y t h i n g* before going in for the bounty

I'd be curious to see how it plays out with a partner, so if you pick this game up give me a buzz

Playing solo certainly seems to have some advantages (read: play as painfully slow as you want without someone near you tripping over every thing and alerting everyone else to where you both are)

The interactive environment is good. Last game I was about to enter a building when a murder of crows took off, cawing loudly - so I ran across a pier and took cover, to find a two-man team bumbling their way into the boathouse yard

I was about to see if I could pick them off when they ran inside and started trying to kill the bounty - and then a flock of chickens in another area started panicking and, sure enough, another person ran in, too

Welp, one more game. Just gonna try and nab some extra xp for this character

Fucking guarantee this goes completely awry just for that reason alone

You've been rambling for so long, I think you forgot to mention what game you're talking about.

<:think_woke:378717098681171988>

I did mention it back up top when I first started downloading it; it just took me so long that it's probably several pages back by now

aaaaaaaand the server either crashed or has been shut down blaaaarrrrgh

at least it had the manners to not kill off my character and instead reset it back to pre-game state

You actually got the game

that the crytek game?

google tells me yes

yeah, took me all of last night to download it

Oh there is a discussion about this here too. Hah obviously went to wrong chat.

Think I saw Lirik stream it a while back. Looks interesting.

It's been interesting

It could fork in two directions though

Really, really good game, that's slower-paced and immersive and forces you to give a shit about your player

I remember seeing a trailer/teaser with some creepy spider crawling inside a barn

orrrrrrrrrrrr exploiting the game meta in a fashion where everyone is too paranoid to move for fear of being murdered by all the other campers who are waiting for other people to do the heavy lifting

that's what I did in the division

There's a whole heap of potential here

murder people and steal their gear

then that became repetitive and boring, like the rest of the game

A pox upon thee.

<:pepe_sad:378719408345841664>

I teamed up with people too!

Then ganged up on others.

Yeah, I don't go to the dz in the division because I don't think that stealing people is funny

yeah, I tend to find that playstyle results in people who want to actually play the objective to quit the game

Leaving servers full of people who just want to kill other players, except everyone else is doing the same thing, so barely anything happens

I used to play a game called Instellar Marines

I still do occassionally

But yeah, stopped playing for like two years

Because in this game you 'rank up' by collecting points, and you collect points by killing the enemies in the environment and 'looting' the points from them

reached a point where one single slimy cunt could go prone behind a bush near an exit, wipe out your squad with a silenced weapon, and steal all of the points off you and your squad and then exit

after you've been busting your ass against very murderous ai robots for over an hour

and even though "it's just a game" and "global rankings don't matter"

when you see cunts like that waaaaaaaaaay above you on the game-wide scoreboard

you're basically just like 'yeah, get fucked'

THIS game isn't at that level, don't get me wrong on that

but if the devs make one wrong move

I backed Interstellar Marines on kickstarter, but it went into development hell at some point.

I just think it's currently a little too easy to let someone else find the bounty, kill the bounty, collect the bounty from the corpse, and then you can pick them off at that point

Hasn't happened to me *yet* but that's because I spend like twenty fucking minutes securing absolutely everything before trying to exit

only one guy working on it in his spare time now, I think.

Yeah, it's still kicking around

recently the community was able to get involved

so it's making headway again

but

could be too little too late

don't know

Marines need to be tougher

also the fucking huge backpack shouldn't count as part of the hitbox

that's absurd

"agh! he got me in the BACKPACK!"

Also a greater variety of vision modes

considering this is supposed to be like cutting-edge tech with only the best of the best recruits allowed to participate

and all they have are fucking flashlights

herp derp

I love the whole helmet visor thing

lol

would like to see more pros/cons to having it opened/closed in various situations

the backpack is the most vulnerable part of the marine, be sure to aim for that

basic training knowledge

wut

make it modular, so you can purchase upgrade 'chips' for it or something, and you can insert, say, two chips into your helmet that give you XYZ

see, plenty of ideas there

the game has a very interesting premise, and ambitious goals

nfi if they'll do any

well, I did catch some of the more h4rdk0re community leaving me with the impression they don't want to do the whole alien thing anymore

and just have it as marines v marines

which is like

*booooooooooooooooooooooo*

It should be Rainbox Six

**IN SPAAAAAAAAAAAAACE**

sure, have marines v marines in some scenarios

but asymmetrical combat against hostile lifeforms? sign me up for that shit

Anyhoo, so far, so good

Prolly give it another bash later

Sargon is doing some DSP level gameplay

Phew, felt the urge to destroy my computer, because of a frustrating jumping puzzle. Over now though. :p

What game were *you* playing?

Also, Stellaris is 60% off. hmmmm.
Already got my hands full, but everyone seems to be into it. Might pick it up anyway

What I'm not liking about Stellaris 2.0 is the pirate events.

Now that you need to spend influence to expand, it seriously limits how fast you can do it. And no matter how fast you do it, you constantly have pirates spawning just outside your borders.

Or, if you leave a hole in your territory, again, that's where the pirates will spawn. And they rubberband on how strong your standard outposts are.

Sounds reminiscent of the Mongol spam in TW Medieval 2

how did they legally get away with this? loopholes?

judging from the terrible English I can only assume it's from a country where Valve can't sue them

But why would Valve let them sell the fuckin' game on their own platform?

There is a game called runner, it seems pretty interesting

Hezbollah has their own video game called Sacred Defense https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFQk5FQXblQ

or Holy Defense or something

shitty graphics

nah man those are Allah's graphics

Didn't they make an Arma 3 mod?

Or is that what this is

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3_YTSI9Vgk

uggggggh.
had a good hunt, didn't get the bounty, went to one of the extraction points (where some cunt was camping in order to try to kill the guy who DID have the bounty), capped him, started getting shot at by another guy but managed to escape

And then the server had an error so I didn't get any xp. At least my character didn't get scrubbed, but bloody hell that's annoying

http://store.steampowered.com/app/637090/BATTLETECH/

please let this be a not-shit mech game.

pretty please.

oh wait, it's a tactical game

well in that case it might be alright

I'd still love to see a proper mech 'sim' though

Just take fucking Brigador and make it first-person with the Dagor engine or something

it's looking quite good

when did Steam add the 'move folder' option?

because that's the most not-shit idea I've seen them implement in a while

now I can move games with long load times onto an SSD while I play it

and move it back when my playtime tapers off

The number of fucking hoops I had to jump through back in the day, juggling games like Rage and Nautral Selection 2 between drives..

welp

going hunting, feel free to join me

I fucking knew it.

I saw the AI cheat post a couple days of ago, but I didn’t realize wiz threw a salt fest again

He didn’t handle the criticism of the militarist VA well either

the militarist VA is so shit

it runs with the assumtion that militarist = I want to purge the entire galaxy and btw I'm actually insane

instead of
I like having a strong fleet to protect my people, and I'm not afraid to use it if the need arises

the militarist VA should sound more like Grand Moff Tarkin and less like someone who recently escaped a mental institution

^

yeah @nic they sound like fucking fantic purifiers

no kidding

@nic what's your favorite ethic VA?

either xenophobe or authoritarian

you?

xenophile or egalitarian

filthy commie

spirtualist VA > materialist VA

spiritualist VA is best girl

***I serve the faithful~***

I got tired of her

don't play with her all the time then smh

I quite like the authoritarian one
"resistance is forcibly discouraged"

xenophobe astartes vc best vc

Xenophobe and Authoritarian sound like Imperial Commanders from Star Wars
hence why the Militarist one should sound like Grand Moff Tarkin
so you have the trifecta of Imperial Voices, which coincidentally fit the Empire's ethics

kek

Empire run when @nic ?

I'm gonna do one soon
I've done pseudo Empire runs before, but not the Galactic Empire from Star Wars

What vidya franchise do you guys want revived?

Final fantasy tactics and front mission

Vandal hearts would be interesting too

Although, we are getting battletech, which seems to be really good

I'd really want a new wild arms game

that too

it's pretty good

Paradox's Wiz is a typical Swede, as PewDiePie would say.

I don't trust a person who doesn't put in the tiniest effort in learning how to pronounce the letter "J", in English.

@Mal I don't trust the gay danish either

Good for you, they'll probably be thrown off a roof in due time. No need to form any premature bonds.

So what do you guys do with the mole people?

Ssh, no one mentions them.

It's just a shitty arena shooter

No, HOI is not my cup of tea. I prefer space nazis, or mongols.
