It will be incomplete and full of bugs. Every CA game so far was exactly like that.

Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
It gets better later, imo. By now I can navigate the location pretty much blind. It looks confusing as hell, but there really aren't that many "places of interest".

Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
Yeah, I don't really like the prison either. Rail Nomads and Titan canyon are probably my favs.

Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
Yes, I do. I think I've spend one point in the skill, but then never again. My experience is that money wasn't a problem anymore already at latest when I left Arizona. Really don't know what you'll have to do to run cheap on money. Usually you don't need to buy weapons, because you find them fast. Ammo is only a problem in the beginning, later you'll find enough. Armor, yes, but you only rarely get a new one. All in all, I'd say that Barter is a pretty useless skill. Maybe it should have been useful in dialog as well, when talking about rewards or when trying to trick someone. Dunno.

What are you playing now?
You can wear fur clothes and hunt deer with a bow in the woods.

Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
It's super slow / down since release of the game.

Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
Finally found a full automatic shotgun. Rocks. Especially because shotguns are way more useful now than they had been in the beta.

Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
Wow that does sound bad but at least you are very proficient in English so you and other German fans can still play in English? Or would you only play the game in German? I play all games in English nowadays, unless they were made in German, like e.g. Risen or the Gothic games. But it's bad for anyone who isn't speaking English very well. My experience is that even AAA+ titles usually have a not so good translation, which is why I am jumping right into the English original.

So, reports from german players are comming in, and they say that the german translation is horrible. Like, extremely horrible. Missing strings, which results in companions not being recruitable or quests being unable to complete, strings that are wrongly translated (not just wrong words, but partly even 1:1 from english to german), strings are not making any sense, etc. Especially everything after Arizona is apparently very shallow and bad. Long story short, if you are into english, then Wasteland 2 should not be played in any of the fan translation languages. InXile said they had professional translators reading over it in the end, no? Either it didn't happened or they've been very sloppy as well.

Hahaha, this is like "if you are retarded, clap your hands!"

What you did today.
Heh, I just noticed how much free time everyone from us has. 12 hours, that's kinda madness, man. :>

Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
Yeah, had pretty much the same thought. When it comes to map design, LA is far superior to Arizona so far, imo. It doesn't feel like I am guided through tunnels all the time. Also I like the visual style quite a lot.
-
Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
What I found out is that LA is full of religious nutjobs, and currently I feel like it would be the best thing to just exterminate them all. It surely is a city full of sinners, and every group thinks themself to be more godly than the other.

Pictures of your games Part 5
Not exactly my smartest idea:
-
Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
Beta had faster leveling, though. I've finished Arizona approx at lvl 20. Though, I kinda rushed through everything a bit, only did the obvious dungeons, etc.
-
Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
Shrines don't give attribute points anymore, only xp. With the skillchecks in Arizona you are right, but in LA I've got many now where I am not even close to. had speech checks with lvl 10 already, while the highest of my folks was 7. So it does get up a little more later.

On the other hand, they released the sources, so anyone can pick it up and modify the game in whatever way they want to.

What you did today.
Yeah. Luckily I could recover one partition already with most of the stuff being back now. Working on the second partition, but this one has quite a lot missing stuff already. Though, it looks like I can get the most important files back. After this is done, I'll just have my third partition left to do.... it's the least important one, so let's hope for the best. In any case I probably won't be playing Wasteland 2 today... bleh. Also my Fallout New Vegas mod collection is gone, which hurts a bit too, because I used lots of custom mini-tweaks that I never uploaded anywhere.

Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
Yes, some of the recruitable party members need x amount of *group* charisma.

What you did today.
I had backups, but a few weeks ago my backup server went belly up. I was about to make new backups when this shait happened now.

I am just surprised that this thing is still going on.
