    SimCity V

    I tried booting this up a little while ago after about a year, made me run through the tutorial again, ok no big deal until it hardlocked my pc about halfway through lol
  3. bf4 is a good game
  4. have they tried kickstarting a 3d version for more exposure maybe hire a writer from another industry like neil gaimen to flesh out some strong female characters, like a sexy brooding elf archer. Maybe a toony artstyle as a stretch goal and hire an art director from ubisoft to get that job done right
  5. I reported this post hopefully thrik does what's right

    LawBreakers

    I remember black and white being on of the first critically acclaimed games that made me wonder whether people reviewing games even had a fucking clue. That game would be a perfect early access game today. Some weird half finished thing with reddit-thread inspiring mechanics, like throwing shit at villagers and animal cruelty.

  8. why do you motherfuckers love this game but not Serious Sam 3 fuck
  9. I guess the way it's told over a stretch of time, no real plot, just this focus on events and life style of this guy and the people that surround him. And that people seem to look at it as some return to form as if scorcese hasn't made a good movie or anything since then. I just kept hearing that, and it always made me really mad. Plus there's already a goodfellas 2, it's called Casino and it's much better than wolf of wall street.
  10. lmao boiler room. Wolf of wall street is not a great movie but damn. People who call it goodfellas 2 though are pretty dumb.
  11. I played the beta for about 5 minutes, it feels like every other F2P shooter out there. Super laggy, movement seemed to be server side entirely, and the only map I played was a "Well, we have a cargo crate model, so let's make a map of it" map. but those are the best maps
  12. You're pretty much scum if you don't like john carpenter movies.
  13. origin says I've put 9 hours into this game which probably isn't enough to speak with any validity on an mp game but I will anyway. - everything feels inconsequential - I pretty much don't engage players that much unless they're a titan and when I do it's for 1.35 seconds on avg and always feels like nothing even happened or I feel kinda bad cause I dropped the guy so fast with no effort. There's little to no personal engagement with other players in even the general sense, remembering their name, getting back at them in some interesting way, honing in on their last know position like in battlefield to ruin their fucking night or anything cause it was probably an AI grunt I killed anyway. I can't keep track. - I'm pretty much the best titan fall player there is, or so it feels like, which seems to me the biggest problem. it's like the game was made so anyone could feel like they're good at online shooters but not in any real way, just shoot AI, get an inevitable titan, spam shit, whatever, you can feel awesome and watch your team lose 75 to 300. - why are there other primarys besides the AR and maybe the shotgun, sort of. I don't really know how sniping fits into this game, or why I'd use the smg over the AR. I understand the usual balance on these weapon archetypes (fire rate vs dmg, vs clip size etc) but it doesn't matter if the SMG's fire rate is 700 rpm and the AR is 650 when players have 25hp max. - Fear of death is missing since you can instant respawn and regain ground so quickly it's not much of a set back. Compare it to BF or even call of duty, position in a level is pretty crucial in these games and it's made an almost inconsequential factor in TF since you're able to reach areas of the map in very little time. Traversal is almost a double edged sword, fun and well implemented and changes up the dynamic a bit but kind of invalidates a lot of what could make your actions and tactical positions hold more weight. - burn cards, these are dumb, just kind of more muck to coddle shitty players. Might have been cool to integrate some of these as location power ups or something. - a lot of the maps feel like terrain levels with buildings plunked in them. That's a shitty fucking thing to say cause they all seem smartly designed with all the mechanics in mind . Just an overflow of options and directions where no one particular area of the map feels more important than another. I'm honestly just b-lining it to red dots on the radar without much regard for how the map is going to take me there. I guess it just feels like the competitive aspect of the game is on the very low end of things. COD series was definitely in this same vein but still inherited a basic learning curve by being a pretty traditional shooter for the most part. Map knowledge, weapon knowledge, the pacing and mind games, it comes pre built with that kind of game, all the other leveling/unlocks/loadout stuff aside. The game does have an interesting dynamic overall, Titans Vs. Players + Grunts is fun at first, but it's so compressed with the speed of the game and the brief matches that it doesn't really allow you the opportunity to try and do anything but run around and get a titan because why would I do anything else anyway. Wow what an asshole post, I mean, it's a fun game for a little while and the titan vs. titan combat works pretty well, there's some options there, back out of a fight, regain shield, reposition, time your reloads, don't miss your shots, look out for anti-armor players. Your choices hold some weight with these things but a lot of what surrounds the Titan's just feels supplemental and unimportant. Maybe getting a Titan shouldn't be some inevitable end all. Maybe getting a titan isn't always the best tactical decision 100% of the time. I don't fucking know. Why am I typing all this.

    WiiU

    Wii U still best console this gen. And Wind Waker still one of the most visually impressive games ever. Took me 10 hours to realize mario kart 8 has drafting and apparently it was in Mario Kart 64 as well, but not double dash the one I last played before 7 and 8. wtf hello does anyone own this machine hello

    E3 2014

    from software, deliver the industry from the 4 player toon shaded medieval military coop hell it has found itself in. It knows not what it does. I shall buy 5 import copies of demon souls in your name. Praise the lord, amen.
  16. What are these buildings like 5 brushes? lol better luck next time I guess.
  17. Crysis 2 made me hate videogames for about 2 years I barely recovered from that experience. I am a worse designer, and more importantly, person than I was before I played it. God help us all.
  18. Finished this last night. Game combines like everything bad and good about modern shooters in one place. I enjoyed it but christ sake it's all over the place. I mostly just wanted to be shooting stuff and there's a lot of times in the game where you are not shooting stuff at all. And yeah the env detail is out of fucking control.

    Arena of Fate

    For a genre born from a mod that had zero context for its characters to be doing the stuff they do it's not surprising that all the derivatives blindly follow suit. It's a nice recipe to do as little world and character building as possible and just throw junk at the screen.
  20. Sitting causes cancer. Ok, I'm fucking done with everything.
  21. There's like 3 really dumb things some of the characters do that was enough to enrage everyone it seems. It also being schizophrenic as to whether it's actually part of the alien series is weird. The rest is fine. Still one of the best openings in a sci fi movie and fun to watch.
  22. It's a ubi open world game if you like clearing hud markers off a mini map for 40 hours this shit is so for you

    Gravity

    Oh yeah this movie was great. I haven't been keeping track but I'd bet 10 dollars everyone on the internet hates it.
  24. Man of Steel is pretty much the only good super hero movie. Maybe Hellboy as well. Rest of them feel like directed by committee middle of the road shit.
  25. Doom is still the best fps hahaha this industry
