RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
To be honest, I really can't imagine why they couldn't just add a basic ai to MWO and add some kind of offline- / coop-mode. Throw in some tanks that are more or less static anyway and done. If we look back at the old MW3/MW4 missions, it really wasn't something super special. Go here, kill that, go there, escort something, etc. They really could have done the same with the MWO engine, I am sure. Hell, just sell it as "offline addon mission pack" or whatever, instead of these stupid hero / gold mechs. Would have made people happy and they get some more money out of it.

What are you playing right now
I started in a desert biome and doing pretty well now. My folks are pretty much only eating berries.. got like 2000+ stored in a big fridge. Biggest issue for me has been a lack of these damn combined parts. My only source of them now is via traders, so I'll have to produce stuff that I hopefully can sell at a caravan to get silver to get the components... Had to amputate a few limps already, one of my peeps has a bionic arm and one raider that I've rescued got a broken spine... It's a 16 years old girl and I just can't get me to get rid of her... damn.

Started some Rimworld yesterday. Boy was that a mistake. I've spend the whole weekend doing nothing else.

This youtube comment is pretty spot on: "So after years of trying the MWO thing, you're finally going to give us what we want?"

There's some youtube videos of people building crazy detailed city scapes. It's awesome, and really makes me wish Transport Fever would look like that graphic-wise.

Isnt there a multiplayer mode? Maybe we should make a convoy through murica.

Heh, I actually did the same in ArmA3 a lot. Took one of the light vehicles or a civilian car and kept driving around Altis. It's most fun if you also use hardware like TrackIR.

Tickets? I thought this is a tv show. Do they show them in cinema now too?

Westworld
I dunno. The company I am working in exists since the early 1900s and we got a photo of the man who founded it. I guess the tv show is set a tad in the future even and pictures of everything are everywhere. Makes it just very hard for me to believe nobody knows how Arnold looks like or that nobody cares to find out.

Movies You've Seen Recently Thread
Now I know what people think if I write "the book was a lot better", but it's true. In the book you can feel how he tries to survive and how it gets harder for him, while in the movie it's like... nope, no problem. Got them potatoes, got them explosions, all is fine and dandy. They had to cut a lot from the book to make the movie run in time, and it totally shows. It's not like in Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter where stuff from the book is missing in the movies-- the movies still work nontheless. For the Martian on the other hand, it really does not work. Maybe they should have made the book into a 6 episodes tv show instead. That probably would have turned out a lot better.

That sounds pretty terrible, to be honest. Maybe I'll wait for bargain bin It gets even worse. In the second(?) dlc they again tried real hard to push this stupid multiplayer game mode. Complete waste of time, imo.

It's almost like this thread has run its course.

In Human Revolution at least it "kinda felt belonging together". In MD right at the beginning you just jump from random cutscene to random cutscene... Basically all the walking you'd normaly do inbetween is removed, which leaves a bunch of awkward dialogues and then a linear dungeon with enemies to get past.

I'd wait until they hopefully make a version where the DLCs are in the base game. Right now, the way the DLCs are working is a complete turnoff and pretty much the reason why I haven't replayed the game yet.

Same, we tried D1 again a few months ago, but it really wasn't that fun. But it's cool how you can totally see that the game started out as turn based. Pretty much everything related to walk around, interacting, etc. just screams turn based.

Why the hell would Obsidian remove his name from the credits. His name means free money.

I checked his blog on the forum. Couldn't find his stuff about companions right now, but there are so many posts- why would Obsidian delete exactly that one?

I have vacation this week and some dumbass thought it is a great idea to start hammering a god damn drill against the wall since 07:15 .......

Sure, but tell that to console peasants. (Not that I am one. Just saying that if you aren't playing with mods, then the games start is really bad once you feel like replaying)
-

Yeah, but you can never skip it, which makes it a huge pain in the arse if you ever think about restarting the game. Then it suddenly becomes long and annoying to slog through.

Pictures of your Games Episode VIII The Fast - The Picturesque
That's because my bbcode firefox plugin doesn't work in non-bbcode post mode, and the bbcode post mode on this forum is broken since months. Can't do any linebreaks anymore. I liked Train Fever, so I also like Transport Fever, especially because not much has changed, but they improved many areas a lot. For example, you can build so many rail setups now that simply never were possible in Train Fever. Also stuff like finally being able to build roads over rails (not just rails over roads), etc. makes your life a lot easier. Of course they also added ships and planes now. Not sure yet how much I like them, though... planes cost a lot and so far they give me only little money, if at all... (probably only useful on big maps-- I am playing on a small map), and ships are so, so, so slow. Oh, and they changed the transport system from the old 20 minutes rule (if something is further away than a 20 minutes [the whole route - back and forth], it simply wouldn't work) to an "area effect". That means, all stations now have a radius in which goods are accepted, which finally allows to build *long* trains. It also means you'll have to use more truck stations to deliver goods into other parts of your town. In my screenshots above, I have 4 truck stations- 1 at the train cargo hub, and 3 spread over the town. The line frequency thing is still annoying me, though. Yes, you can now make really long trains, but if their frequency (how fast they go in/out of a station) is too high, industries still won't produce more goods. Basically that means, if you want a facility to grow, you still need multiple trains on each route, which in return means, shorter trains are again more effective. Especially in the later years (~2000) it makes me wonder if it wouldn't be more effective to just use trucks instead of trains. They cost less, have a higher frequency because you need more of them, and they can also go with 80km/h, which is what most of my cargo trains are doing. All in all it is still a lot of fun. Still I'd wish for special events every once in a while that do something to break the flow. Oh, and I want weather effects.... Rain, sandstorm, whatever. Day and night cycle could be fun too. I really liked that in Cities - Skylines.
