GhostofAnakin Posted May 8, 2016 Posted May 8, 2016 The Dark Zone in the Division seems to eat me alive. Maybe it's because I'm low level (relatively speaking), but I get murdered whenever I come across a group of thugs. And extracting gear? Ha! Forget about it. I get swarmed by enemies from all sides and constantly either get killed or miss the extraction because I'm hiding behind cover. The lag doesn't help, either. Seriously, I keep harping on this but it's just pathetic. Half the time I play, my game is lagged to hell. I'll score a perfect head shot, and it will take 5 seconds before it shows up as a headshot kill.

Malcador Posted May 8, 2016 Posted May 8, 2016 Almost paragon 300 in D3. Maurauder's is kind of fun with impale, not very good at group damage but eh, the turrets kill what they can quickly.

GhostofAnakin Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 Crafted my first two pieces of purple (superior) equipment in the Division. Unfortunately, the blueprints were only for a bag and a hand gun. I was hoping for an assault rifle or sub machine gun. The one issue I have with crafting is I find material is rather scarce, and so by the time I have enough material for a good weapon or armor, my level is well above that of that item.

Katphood Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 (edited) I will probably buy Uncharted 4 today, can't wait to see how pretty the game is. Uncharted 3 Remastered still looks stunning so I expect Uncharted 4 to blow me away. I am also a wee bit curious about the multiplayer, never tried Uncharted 2 multiplayer. Hopefully, I won't see a bunch of 12 year olds swinging around the map like monkeys and shooting at each other.

BruceVC Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 Well besides browsing for awesome updates to the top candidate for GotY, I am playing Pathfinder Adventures on my iPad. The game is so crazy addictive, to bad it has still a lot of bugs but well, I haven't played better iOS/Android Free-to-Play game ever. Obsidian did a great job in transferring the game from Tabletop to Mobile platforms.

GhostofAnakin Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 Seems like the Rogue agents in the Division in the Dark Zone are nothing but idiots who pick on lower level players. One guy kept killing people near the extraction zone, for no real reason. I got killed by him even though I had zero items to steal.

Mamoulian War Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 Killed today for the first time Aeronite in Lightning Returns:FFXIII, for a gold trophy. Well this game is not that bad, but it missed so much potential. As I said before, the stupid MMOesque fetch quest can destroy any game. And they are definitely destroying this on. If this is what SE thinks about "Open World Fun" and put something like that into FFXV, I will be sad panda ( Although FFXV is pretty low on my anticipation meter, due to it being hack&slash with RPG elements and not, what I expect from jRPGs...

Katphood Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Playing Uncharted 4 and loving it. Great stuff, I like how the story is presented in a slightly more serious tone. This could very well be the best game in the series but have yet to finish it. Looks amazing so far. Bought Uncharted 4 and DOOM yesterday. One more time I get to get my hands on the games before release. Living in Tehran really pays off I guess...if you are a gamer. 1 There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.
ShadySands Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Picked up Stellaris from GMG for 30 bucks thanks to them having a 25% off code (SPACE25). Downloading it now but probably won't get to play it until Wednesday 2 Free games updated 3/4/21

Katphood Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) It's really awesome. Worth the wait. DOOM on the other hand...good lord! The graphics are like something from 2010...what were they thinking?! Seriously, is this a joke?! There is also screen tearing and such. Gameplay is ok(it basically boils down to "hit an enemy until it starts glowing, then either execute it for health points or just shoot it...also, good luck on finding health points anywhere else so better keep pushing that R3 button. Glory Kills!!!") but the graphics and some of the animations are absolute dog poop. So you have all been warned: Avoid DOOM and save your money unlike me. Payed full price for this piece of crap. I am really starting to hate Bethesda with a passion. Edited May 10, 2016 by Katphood 1 There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.
Fenixp Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Well... Without Bethesda, we wouldn't have Dishonored and Wolfenstein: The New Order. I guess remaining members of id were sacrificed to the Dark Gods in order for these two absolutely stellar games to happen, and the price we have to pay is the new Doom. Anyway, thanks for warning. 2

In a group it is easy- the other player will always be somewhere your level, so absolutely possible to kill. Had a similar experience once, because when it comes to extracting the stuff, players suddenly turn blind and don't check their surroundings anymore.

Raithe Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Was having an extreme Monday yesterday, so I decided to take advantage of the 25% off offer at Greenman Gaming and picked up Stellaris. Now I do believe that might become my new addictive lose time game for the next while.... 1 "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
Tale Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Up until past 1 playing Stellaris. Still haven't gotten far enough to make a judgement call. I barely met my neighbors yesterday, two moderately crappy groups who will inevitably try to destroy me. One xenophobic hive mind and one group of dudes who think the galaxy belongs to them. Here I am trying to spread safety to all races in the galaxy and I'm situated near these buttheads. The seemingly more hostile ones actually liked me a bit better since we're both arthrapoids. But the long term prospects of them not try to attack me are slim, so I'm cozying up to the other dudes who also have a stronger fleet. Other than that, I've got a nice big section of the spiral arm all to myself. Pretty much the entire limb. Perhaps more once my science ships decide to brave the terrifyingly peaceful space amoebas. Hostile, hah. So far, it just feels like Gal Civ with RTWP, leaders, and a bonkers tech tree. We'll see how it goes. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Malcador Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 More D3. Should get back to Grim Dawn though, at least to finish the story. Not a bad game, even if I really am not totally certain of what I'm doing.

Gfted1 Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Im not sure where the end of the story is with Grim Dawn. I killed Loghorrean but there doesnt seem to be any more map to explore. Ive also only purged 25 shrines and I know there is at least 3 more out there. Am I missing something? "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"

It just seemed kind of dumb. I had nothing of note on my person that he'd want to steal. So it seemed kind of petty. I could understand if I had some cool loot. It also seemed kind of cowardly that he was at the high end of the level for the area (19) and was going around targeting the lowest end (15).

SadExchange Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Currently have about 2 1/2 hours into Uncharted 4 and really enjoying. It seems like Naughty Dog has really excelled at enhancing each gameplay aspect to their game from previous installments. I will say that, due to graphic integrity and storytelling, for the first couple hours, I really do feel like I'm "playing" through a movie here. Movement feels great, shooting mechanics so far have been solid, voice acting is stellar as typical with their titles and the graphics, damn, easily one of the best looking console games, if not best looking games out there right now. 1

Ive also only purged 25 shrines and I know there is at least 3 more out there. Am I missing something? No, the game just ends there seemingly out of nowhere. Now you obviously missed some shrines but which ones is kind of hard to tell. There is one gated behind a quest you can only do with high Rover reputation and one hidden behind a secret passage in the Queen's Lair, those are kind of easy to miss... 1 No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.
