Brick Fight Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 The Division is the only game coming up that I have much of an interest in, but I'm more cautiously optimistic than anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cm_kruger Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 I'm kinda worried about the new Homeworld title. Looks cool, despite the original Shipbreakers "mercenaries trying to get enough loot to get home" concept being more interesting before they abandoned it, but will Gearbox ruin a potentially good game like usual?

Brick Fight Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 I tried to replay Enemy Unknown recently, and I don't know how people can get into it. My soldier is fully behind cover in a flanking position with 80% chance to hit, and I miss. Same basic alien fires from outside cover against my guy who is behind a full-shield barrier and hits him. Un-weighted dice rolls are stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoooSeR Posted February 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 I agree with his view that game mechanics contradict to game world/set up and this was maine reason why i'm not interested even if it was promising and interesting at first.

LostCosmonaut Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Got Vector Thrust on sale the other day. Has some drawbacks; lots of spelling errors, bugged content, etc. Also, the campaign storyline is animea as fuck. Still, it has a shitload of planes, and it does get pretty fun sometimes. Worth it for $7.50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Fight Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Shame. Gametrailers had some good stuff, but it's kind of pointless to have a site like that when there's people doing the same/similar stuff on youtube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xthetenth Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I tried to replay Enemy Unknown recently, and I don't know how people can get into it.

Un-weighted dice rolls are stupid. Yep. I'm very happy with how aggressive the Shadowrun games are about making flanking or other cover-removing synergies a huge deal by preventing crits on people in cover and making crits huge. XCOM is really frustrating early in that it is literally an attrition simulator, and playing it well and not making mistakes is only going to reduce casualties to a manageable number.

EnsignExpendable Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Ah, I remember that game. Good times. Sadly very unforgiving, confusing, and buggy. The sequel didn't change much. My favourite part in the first mission (kidnap a guy by hiding him in the truck) was when I suplexed his unconscious body into the truck repeatedly in futile hope of getting him into the back before figuring out that there was a context menu item for loading him in.

SuperComrade Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 I've never actually played that game, but just looking at it and watching the video, I KNEW it was a 1C game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Fight Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 So, this is a game people here may enjoy: I have the Stalingrad Campaign versions, and I've been getting back into it after they've made some gameplay updates. The meta of the game is set around keeping units well-supplied. Basically, if units go two turns without receiving supplies, they can no longer perform offensive attacks, and by three turns, they can no longer defend themselves. The object, then, is to surround units or cut off supply lines as quickly as possible while still maintaining a frontline. This is harder to do than you'd think, because the AI is really smart. I've never seen it act the same way twice, and I've never seen it make a bad choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really missing having single player campaigns, especially now that we're actually getting tank/plane/chopper games again.
