Azdeus Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Well, everything is better with lasers. Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

SonicMage117 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I know we got The Old Blood but it would be great if Bethesda and Id gave us another game like that and The New Order. I wouldn't mind a futuristic Wolfenstein from those guys to be honest! Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey? Is it a habit of yours to scurry about, getting in the way and causing bother? What are you still bothering me for? I'm a Knight. I'm not interested in your childish games. I need my rest. Begone!

marelooke Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 (edited) Not strictly game news I guess, but just got an update of Gog Galaxy today. Holy batman, great feature list... If they keep this up they'll be wiping the floor with the Steam client soon. Seems I can't link directly to the version 1.2 patchnotes due to excessive use of JavaScript but you can find them on the Galaxy site: https://www.gog.com/galaxy (slightly realted: is it just me that fears the Steam codebase is a mess given at how glacial a pace it evolves even now that they have some actual competition?) Oh, and I had to read through pages upon pages of talking about Stalker 2 to catch up to this point. STOP TWISTING THE KNIFE, IT HURTS! The pain. *cries in a corner* Sorry, emotional breakdown mode disengaged. But seriously if I *had* to pick a top 3 of favourite games *ever* Stalker: SoC would be in it (CoP is better mechanically, but the atmosphere of the world and especially the labs in SoC wipes the floor with CoP imho). Oh yeah, two others I'd pick, just off the top of my head would probably be Dungeon Keeper 1 and BG2:SoA Edited April 25, 2017 by marelooke 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonicMage117 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Strafe's price is $19.96 lol How appropriate I just learned about the new Marvel action rpg and it looks great. Featuring 50 characters and each one is dofferent (no clones or similar characters). Pretty great stuff. Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey?

Agiel Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) Could have been interesting if it included some of the forgotten battles of the era between WWII and Vietnam: Pusan Perimeter, Inchon, Chosin Reservoir, MiG Alley, Dien Bien Phu, Algiers, and so forth. I suppose on the plus side for Activision looking at the likes bar this seems to be garnering a far warmer reception than Infinite Warfare. Edited April 26, 2017 by Agiel 3 Quote “Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.” -Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>> Quote "The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete." -Rod Serling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadySands Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I don't think I've ever seen a single game set in the Korean war.

rjshae Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I don't think I've ever seen a single game set in the Korean war. I'm sure there are some out there somewhere but I guess that's why it's the Forgotten War There was an old SPI wargame based on the early part of the Korean war, called "Korea". I played it a few times when I was younger. The rugged terrain and shape of the peninsula made for a pretty uninteresting game though. It's somewhat reminiscent of the Italian peninsula campaign during WW II -- only the sea landings made it at all interesting. Otherwise it's an endless slugfest.

After watching the live stream I noticed that many of the scenes were near duplicates of the ones in CoD2 (upgraded graphics and slightly different dialogue of course). And CoD2 was the last CoD I actually bought/played. Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey?

Katphood Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 (edited) Last year I gave in to the hype of Modern Warfare Remastered+Infinite Warfare bundle and the results were mixed: Modern Warfare Remastered was fun to play, the single-player campaign is still in my opinion the best in terms of story and narrative MW:R multiplayer was great fun but the lack of dedicated servers and a weak player base made it forgettable and I eventually quit. Infinite Warfare had an awful SP campaign, just as bad as Black Ops II, III and Ghosts. You basically have no idea what is going on, who you are fighting and why you should care at all. Zombies in Spaceland was fun for a time but the DLC 1 focused on melee weapons which made it boring and DLC 2 is now focusing MOSTLY on melee combat. It's super boring, why the hell would I want to learn different martial arts move? I'lll just go ahead and play Shadow Warrior instead! Despite how much people hated the MP in Infinite Warfare, I must say I quite enjoyed it. It was fun to mess around with different weapons and combat rigs and I enjoyed the fast paced combat but maybe that's because it was the first time I was playing such a game. Before that I mostly spent my time playing games such as Battlefield: Bad Company 1 & 2, Battlefield 4 and Red Orchestra 2. Last week I decided to delete it because I got the feeling that I had finally seen all that there is to IW, besides that I have no hope for DLC 3 & 4 to be anything special. Call of Duty: WW II is 'boots on the ground' but the setting is something that has been done to death before. I would have been interested in the game if it portrayed the Eastern Front, Vietnam or the Korean War.
