Drowsy Emperor Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 I don't know about the WH40K rpg. If its story was planned for an MMO it already sucks in advance as a single player experience. On the other hand, maybe it all works out. И погибе Српски кнез Лазаре,И његова сва изгибе војска, Седамдесет и седам иљада;Све је свето и честито билоИ миломе Богу приступачно.
Morgoth Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 WH, or 40K, just suck as an IP. They should bury that nonsense for good and better concentrate on good stuff. I still want that Homeworld 3. Other news: SEGA cancels a couple of projects, restructuring commencing, more people losing their jobs. Don't you just love this mad race for lowering and lowering your currency?

Amentep Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 Mass Effect is a terrible squad based shooter, because it's an RPG. Mass Effect is a terrible RPG because is is a squad based shooter. That pretty much sums up the entire series. What's funny is today, just for fun, I powered up a CoD MW game. Wow...as far as shooters go, that blew ME3 out of the water and MW 3 came out before ME3 and still rocks all over it. Yeah...ME3 is an RPG...cause if it were a shooter it is epic fail. I like it as an RPG... Then again, people say I'm one of those who are part of the stupid masses instead of some of the elite RPG artiests here. Sometimes it's good to be able to play CoD though. I completely like the ME series as they are, and view them as RPGs. As RPGs they are just as fun as CoD...but not ME3 MP...that actually is pretty bad in comparison after I fired up MW. I'd probably never lasted at ME series if it was pure shooter - I'm kinda hopeless with them. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

WorstUsernameEver Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Takedown (Hardcore Tactical Shooter) reached its funding goal http://www.kickstart...actical-shooter Weeeeeell.. that? I wasn't expecting.
Lexx Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Heh, though I am happy about it. Wouldn't pledge any money to it, but I would like to get a new game which is like SWAT 4 and co. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

Gorgon Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Haven't liked any of the latest warhammer games. Maybe they will go more traditional out of desparation. Can't hurt anyway. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Lexx Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 DoW2 Retribution was p.cool, though Chaos Rising was the better one gameplay wise. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
Gorgon Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 They completely ruined it by making it a squad based combat game with an RTS viewport. I understand that there are people out there who like that sort of thing, there are people who love blue cheese, but recent events would suggest that they are not a majority. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Malcador Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 I don't necessarily think the DOW2 change is responsible for THQ's troubles. I enjoyed both games, was fun to customize the squad and so on, loss of base building wasn't that big a deal. That Takedown project looks interesting, world needs more 'tactical' shooters in any case. Why has elegance found so little following?

Malcador Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) http://www.eurogamer...com-on-thursday GOG giving away a "Legendary" RPG on Thursday I guess it'll have Legend in the title. Ah, only to people owning Witcher 2 or buying it, so I guess it's not that cool. Whoops. Edited April 2, 2012 by Malcador Why has elegance found so little following?

Morgoth Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Some more Next Gen console rumors: PS4 to release before next Xbox Next Xbox to use always-online DRM? If MS is that dumb and goes down the Ubisoft road, I predict Sony will have it easy. Unless they do the same dumb thing. Rain makes everything better.
pmp10 Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 The whole anti-used games rumors suggest that both consoles will feature some kind of online checks. I just don't understand how MS hopes to implement it - they sell thousands of consoles in countries that are not supported via Live. Maybe those rumors are for dev-kits only?
Morgoth Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 I can see that they want to bind your game to an PSN/Live account to curb used games, but always-online? Please... Rain makes everything better.
Nepenthe Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Which reminds me, the Witcher 2 x360 special editions got cut in half, so yours truly was left without a copy. I'm starting to think they simply don't want my money. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions
Nepenthe Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Leisure Suit Larry Kickstarter! Al Lowe! http://www.kickstart...arry-come-again ... Seems kind of odd to kickstart an already announced game, but, hey... You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions

C2B Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 EDIT: Goddamn, a remake? That's too bad. Read the FAQ. It offers up a lot of possibilities. According to a comment Scott Murphy (Space Quest Co-Creator) is also ready to join them.
