LadyCrimson Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 ^ What in the... The funniest part is I've now figured out how to reproduce leaving the normal boundaries of the game, at will. Some oddball glitch with view angles and tossing around materials. Sadly, the biggest caverns I've dug for checking out their outer shapes are long gone. I'll have to do another. “Things are as they are.

sorophx Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 looks more like a remake of Jagged Alliance Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland.

Keyrock Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Bokishi, you're such a tease. Keyrock, is that Dead State? Nope looks more like a remake of Jagged Alliance It's Jagged Alliance: Flashback, so you're basically correct.

LadyCrimson Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 The bottom screenie just reminded me of a shot from Dead State I guess. “Things are as they are.

Lexx Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 I tried JA:Flashback shortly before the release again and it felt horribly unfinished. It totally killed my mood to play it since. Also, yes, people should see it more as a JA1 remake, and not a JA2 remake. Me personally, I am fine with this. Back in the days I totally loved JA1. Played it for so many, many hours. Never finished Deadly Games, though... "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
Bokishi Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 (edited) Elite Dangerous is probably teh most epic sandbox space flying game out right now. You can be a trader or a bounty hunter or whatever. It is also the benchmark Rift game. In the Rift everything is true to scale and massive. You can turn your head and look out your windows to the stars and watch huge ships and rocks whiz by. You can look down at your digital hands and watch them make the same joystick movements that you make. It feels less like a videogame and more like the holodeck. And 10x more next gen than PS4 and Xbone. Cross your eyes and you'll see what I see My matching joystick setup Edited January 10, 2015 by Bokishi 6 Current 3DMark

Humanoid Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Yes and no. My preferred stick for space sims (where I favour minimal resistance) is the CH Products line. Other than switching the connection method from gameport to USB, their current products are absolutely identical to the ones they were selling some 20 years ago - and I'm glad that they are. Contrast to Thrustmaster (who were bought out by Guillemot) who dropped their entire line of products to make these oddities. That said, they still produce the god-king of all game controllers, the Warthog HOTAS. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
LadyCrimson Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 I was mostly talking about their appearance (Bok's are pretty fancy looking to my eyes), although the ones in your link do retain the same general shape as the NES one we had ages ago, and a couple hubby bought when he wanted something for a pc game once. I've never been a joystick person tho. I mostly just remember the Atari one. 1 “Things are as they are.
