  • What have you purchased recently?

    Bought a cabin size trolley that is quite technical (lots of pockets etc), seems good for the IT savvy person. Can also remove the wheels and use it as a backpack. The shop was having the last day of 2x1 so also got another slightly smaller bag that also can function as backpack.

    Then Halloween sale, taking advantage to clear some wishlist. Need to make an effort to play some stuff as well...

    Ye totally get that you wanted to make them per reference @Squad, and they actually were looking alike; I like these much better though.

    Ah, very confusing; never paid much attention to their offering since mp was slammed from before release.

    So they have a season pass for mp maps only, and then these free updates with the content people really want? :D

    DAT tree shadow

    Oh, I guess the haystacks are those big round things… they might be as of reference but personally I couldn't tell what they were straight away. Maybe even of is not geographically accurate you can use a different kind of stack, something more common and smaller.

    For eg this is what they use in Slovenia to dry the hay

    They also use them for wood.

    i think the problem with the ground is not much the texture, but the fact that Squad hasn't yet played with the alpha, also the ground is quite flat and there are not many features capturing the attention.

    I say keep it up!

    True, but this mp dlcs are free anyway…

  • Bethesda's new review policy

    • blackdog
    • October 28, 2016 at 4:27 AM

    Sorry, but when was it the last time Bethesda published a shit buggy game like No Man's Sky?

    The comparison makes no sense.

    Yes on paper there's the potential to circumvent gamers, but in reality Bethesda is the company that killed Doom 4 and completely had it redone from scratch.

    It seems to me that press is the only audience upset about this right now. And I can understand reviewers' fear for the condition they will be put in… but you are imagining this spreading to every company, which will never happen.

    There's talk about this being unfair for the customer, how? Preorders makes a big chunk of the sales, and they happen way before reviews come out. If anything, reviews coming out before release allow to cancel, but as well place preorders. I've seen that happen for the love of weapon/character skins. "Oh the review is good, I will preorder then, so I get the bonus. (Then I'll sell the game back in the first week.)" Bottom line is people who preorder will still preorder. Those who wait, will still wait. Will they get a bad service because reviews will be rushed? I've always heard that the process of reviewing is rushed! That reviewers crunch and have to even do relays to be able to finish a long game in time for review.

    If there's an argument pro-embargo like Totalbiscuit says, I can counter by saying it allows for "laziness". Wanting to come out with reviews all at the same time means playing it safe, allows outlets to rely on their core audience for ad-views and clicks, they think more of retaining their audience, rather than work to get more. Now is gonna be a race? Ok, if they make mistakes by coming out first, they'll quickly lose the audience that got burned! And honestly I don't really care of what will happen to outlets. I never buy based on reviews, I don't read reviews. I base my judgments on the walkthroughs and I only buy when games are discounted.

    Most of all, I had enough of the power the press has. I distrust big outlets. There have been many many cases of "sellout" reviews. And circling back to No Man's Sky, fucking IGN pumped that game like crazy, they had all the exclusive interviews and previews, then when the game came out they threw the developer under the bus publishing a video "why you lied to us" instead of apologising to their audience for being unprofessional primadonnas fucks for not seeing through what they had been shown for months.

    Press should get the game when it's actually out. Enough of this "review code", that still leaves wiggle space to feed hope for bugs to be fixed upon release, or negative judgment on an unfinished product.

    Dunno @FrieChamp, looks like something that would be generated, but on the website they only mention "procedural AI"…

    I realised only now that there's a free alpha available.

    Well the Wii was the console that sported a browser… even without Android, they could easily include a browser and a couple other native apps.

    This thing is by all means just a tablet in a dock, with gamepad support. They have built what some people wanted to Kickstart for the iPad.

    To me it would make sense that it could let you leave your standard tablet at home.

    ?

    I feel silly when I read these comments because I still enjoyed it. Sure like you say not as good, but still enjoyed up to season 5.

    That's where I'm at now :/ couldn't get to season 6, and now that I have it, my gf has been putting it off… so if that happens again I'll start watching on my own

    Since they started showing it I was feeling this is there game you wanted when the first came out. And seems this feeling is shared.

    Really intrigued, might get it at first discount… although MP is intriguing and I'd get in early, if I knew I could spend the time :(
