What have you been playing lately?
>>64421945>MoH: Frontline I remember playing this with the girls in my neighborhood on their GameCube. Holy fuck that was a long time ago. >All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.Why does growing up suck so much bros?
I haven't picked up a controller in a while.Been busy with a lot of other shit and I've been leaning on other hobbies
Squad and Far Cry 2
>>64422002I still can't get over retarded respawning of checkpoints in FC2. That game could've been magical if only slightly less retarded people made it.
mostly Foxhole
>>64422009I liked it. Kept you on your toes rather then having a permeate fast travel. I guess my opinion is the wrong one due to all subsequent games being fast travel city.
>>64422062I never played any past 2, which one would you recommend?
>>64422009>respawningI think it's just how the engine works. Dunno if it's because of the consoles back in the day having cripplingly low amounts of working memory, or just the devs finding it easier that way, but the map's split into smaller areas that just stop existing when you get far enough from them, and are reset to their initial state when you return.If they didn't respawn, the environment would also be a lot less dangerous.Could be neat if there was something like Stalker's A-Life, where the NPCs have to move to the checkpoints to retake them. Would likely need a whole new system in the engine to support it if large chunks of the map aren't even loaded most of the time, though.
Been playing the demo for this which is basically The Expanse, the game. Pretty rough but has potential.
monster black market but I prefer it if you thought I was cool and playing picrel instead
I'm considering buying Battlefield 6 (when it goes on sale I hate the $70 standard), you chuds let me know if its good
>>64422136the foundation is great but as of now it lacks polish and it's very grindy. After a few bug fixes it will be truly great.
Beyond Citadel. If you look past the coomer artstyle, It's a good, fast paced shooter.
>>64421945Only the most /k/ 2600 game of 1983, Robot Tank.
>>64421945I've been playing Gray Zone Warfare. It has shaped up nicely and I look forward to the next update in November. If anyone starts, remember not to bring that much fancy gear on a mission in case you cannot reach your corpse to get it all back.
>>64421945Been chewing through the second chapter of Cultic. Breddy gud if you are into the boomer shooter revival, particularly in the same style as Blood.
>>64421945I'm old and don't play vidya much anymore, but I am doing a FO:3 run right now.
They don’t make them like this anymore
TA Escalation. The greatest mod for Total Annihilation.
Insurgency 2014. I love source.Best voicelines in any shooter I've ever played. Did you know if you stab someone to death in it and hit "enemy killed" they will say a special voiceline? Link not related, but at 22 minutes the guy says "no" in a bunch of different ways https://youtu.be/qyuoOPHiY2g
>>64421945I've been playing ready for knot recently. it's kind of glitchy but it's still fun. they recently added hard mode which really added some challenge to the game. before you could just run and gun on a lot of maps. my main complaint is that the AI can will often kill you with the most ridiculous pixel peeks on maps like greased palms. you'll get sniped from across a warehouse by some dude with a glock shooting at you through a 1/4" gap between two boxes. it gets really fucking annoying sometimes. I wish someone would make a frag grenade mod.
>>64422927>can will*willfucks sake I always leave a word in after changing my sentences like a retard
>>64422927Shooting feels great (rare game that lets you use a shorty HK51. But the gameplay loop is horrible. I hate having to manage my retard teammates stress levels, I hate spending more time cuffing, scanning evidence and tagging dropped weapons than actually pie'ing corners and room clearing.
>>644220653 for the main character slowly loosing his mind and turning into a feral killing machine.
>>64421945stellar blade and recently Space Marine. Space Marine was pretty fun until this last mission where there isn't any cover and waves of baddies, i gave up after an hour of dying.
>>64422546What game? Is this a game adaptation of Platoon?
>>64422715The OG's sound design in general was incredible.
Delta Force Land Warrior is way comfier than it has any right to be.
WARNO, of course.I present my new least favorite division, Doodoo Du RhinStarring such exquisite units as; the worst main battle tank in the game; NOW WITH DOGSHIT ATGMS!!!!
>>64422009Tom's Mod for FC2 lets you increase the checkpoint respawn timer up to an hour real-time (that doesn't reset every time you close the game) and I highly recommend you try it.
nu-hitman. I find the environments particularly soothing and fascinating in a way other games don't come close to.
>>64423052That might be the one with the O J Simpson joke in the game code.
>>64423026>I use OG insurgency sounds for X-COM WOTC weapon mods
>>64423018Not OP but I think it's Conflict: Vietnam
>>64421945>DOOM IIunbelievable how good this game is
Arma 2>>64422715Based and better than the new one
>>64421945Don't stop girly pop demo dropped, enjoyed itOther than that just dayz
>>64423179Ah yeah, that looks right. I was just watching Platoon and Junior looks just like his character in the film.
FEAR, because everyone said the shotgun was amazing

>>64424029Same, I'm also doing a Chenarus Winter playthrough
>>64424029>>64424088i played some ww2 one on chernarus where we were nazis fighting americans and british. it becomes spoopy af at night time when nods arent a thing
This is the greatest gun in this history of video games.Find one better.>you won't
I've been playing quasimorph a bunch. Its pretty fun, and the new update adds lots of silly things.
>>64422947that's why I don't play the campaign mode, I just play quickplay and co-op with my friend. I agree with the whole evidence thing, that's not my problem as a SWAT officer, the forensics nerds and beat cops can deal with that shit.
>>64422136what was your favourite battlefield prior to it? That'll kinda determine if you enjoy it or not imo
>>64424170I think it’s overrated and terrible unless you have a singular enemy in front of you, even the multiple versions in 3 are all just kinda bad. I’d take the fusion cannon or chronoscepter from 1 anyday of the week. Hell, I’d even take 1’s auto shotgun over it.
>>64422715Just for you, anon, I'll play some Insurgency tomorrow. It really blew me away how much worse Sandstorm was, is, and always will be. I was so hyped for it too because of how much I loved the first one. Oh well.
>>64422136>>64422204>>64424539Battlefield 6 is excellent; but it's not any of the other games you already played.If you just want to play the same thing you already played, play the same thing you already played.Otherwise, BF6 is the best running, cleanest looking and best balanced BF of all time. It lacks maps, lacks gun variety, the battle royal mode hasn't been implemented yet, we're still waiting on the battle pass and there are a few bug fixes you should expect in the coming weeks, but it absolutely mogs every other BF game experientially.All it needs is time in the oven to flesh out the experience; to grow a map roster to rival BF4 after DLC
>>64421970Your heart dies.
>>64421945been replaying mgsveasily my second favorite game in the wandering around africa clearing checkpoints and collecting diamonds genre
>>64422136Its definitely got good bones but I would wait for a sale like you said.The gunplay is the biggest issue right now with the weapon bloom completely killing your accuracy leading to a lot of frustrating moments where you are on targets but your shots just go around people.The destruction is another issue with a lot of stuff being indestructible to "preserve" map flow, but it just leads to the destruction feeling very one-note and not something you can really rely on or actually use to its fullest potential. Its really all or nothing when it comes to breaking shit because an RPG can take down just the front of a building or a sledgehammer can do the same in 2 hits. Its kind of ridiculous.The game is also missing a "gimmick" like previous battlefields. BF4 had levolution, BF1 had the behemoths and BF5 had the buildable defenses. The best map in BF6, Mirak Valley has the closest thing to levolution with a crane in the middle being destructible but that's it. There's not really anything that interesting that changes up the flow of the game.Other than that the game has some good stuff going for it, like the vehicles are strong but can still be dealt with easily, and the weapon selection is pretty nice except for maybe the sidearms. Doesn't really matter that much but the campaign is unbelievably dogshit. Take the shittiest wannabe Tom Clancy military pulp novel you can think of and dial up the dogshit to 11.
>>64422106It's a deliberate choice, you don't need to keep the entire outpost in memory to have a flag that says to spawn guys there or not. The director has talked about wanting to make the whole environment feel hostile in interviews before iirc.
>>64422136I'm having a lot of fun with it. I'd wait for a sale if you didn't bother getting the beta or 2042 skins, but it's a good time.
>>64421945Stalker 2. So glad they added night vision in.
RAGAMUFFIN!
Im having fun with Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts.Like an amalgamation of Hitman, Sniper Elite and Crysis (made on the same engine).
>>64424690the suppression system is dogshit in bf6, the fact that you need to hit a target for it to take effect defeats the entire point of it. There hasn't been a good system for it since 3. "time out of the oven" fuck off anon, maybe they should have just not released it for a year and sold it as a full experience like every battlefield since 3 & before?
>>64422694Based TA enjoyer. I need to get back into BA and SpringRTS.
>>64424782>*ai grapple rapes your dominant arm while you have a two handed weapon*>now I can't take pleasure in murdering his AI bitch ass
>>64421945I miss MoH bros, why cant we go back? or at the very least why wont sony put them up for sale on the classics catalogue? are they retarded? You know what, dont answer that last one ..oh before I forget, I was trying to play Conscript but it filtered me and in shame I went back to warzone.
Thought about playing some modded Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts.But then I remembered how frustrating it was, and instead decided to go back to Mechwarrior
>>64424803BF3 had four DLCs.
Can't forget Receiver
>>64421945Rimworld with a Combat Extended modpack is fuckin' kino.
>>644248721942 had special weapons of ww2bf2 had special forcesthese weren't excuses for the games being shit out the gate. BF3 was still a complete game at launch. the "let bf6 cook" cope is just that, a cope. I've enjoyed the game but it's clear that it's gonna be a shitfest like 2042.
>>64421945Battlefield 1942. These days I almost exclusively play old games on my retro PCs and consoles.I could build a new PC but it'd come at the expense of my other hobbies, it would lose value, and there's nothing new which interests me. Maybe when Elder Scrolls 6 comes out I'll upgrade.
>>64421945Having a blast playing BF6
>>64424757>It's a deliberate choice, you don't need to keep the entire outpost in memory to have a flag that says to spawn guys there or not. The map might feel a bit empty if you cleared too much of it and the next time you passed a few outposts, they were completely empty, with no spawned guards but none of the carnage you left behind clearing them either.I suppose at some point during development they had a choice:>add system for tracking outpost/road checkpoint state, mark them cleared if none of the guards are alive, keep list of cleared outposts in memory and re-spawn after it's been long enough (with the caveat above)>or just don't track or save anything besides player state and story progress, spawn new guards on every chunk loadThe later games kind of stepped past this by immediately throwing a very unimmersive "outpost cleared" screen in your face and spawning friendly guards so it didn't seem so empty, but I don't think that would have fit into FC2's style that well.
making my own knock-off tanks in sprocket is funwish there were a few more scenarios to use them in
>>64425321I love making multi-turreted monstrosities, hopefully mod support will allow for user-made scenarios
>>64421945>What have you been playing lately?Return to comfy
>>64421945Day of Defeat is the only vidya worth playing in 2025
>maxed firearms>maxed auspex*sips blood pack*I'm isolated.
>>64421945FNV but only dead money, the rest of the game is comfy but is waaay to easy to cheese. Plus I like the police pistol, fits the noir aesthetic perfectly
>>64425685they said that they went with the colt police special as a reference to treasure of the sierra madre
>>64424690>>64424872>ayo bix nood mufugga let DICE cookAt the best they'll suck the fun out of the game because redditards cry about "muh balance". Just go play cowadoody at this point since they're effectively the same game
>>64421945Finished replaying Battlefield Bad Company 2 and Battlefield 3 recently. Just come to the realization after almost 14 years of owning both games BF3's campaign is complete trash
>>64422468I wish the dev wasn't so stingy with ammo in the second chapter, I have to save all the molotovs for chad cops only, and the game barely give you any dynamite to have fun with cultists.
I still play bf1942/dc final every week or so, still has servers and regulars that hang out
>>64425685>>64425690It is modeled after an Official Police, but that frame size was later offered as a Trooper model in .357 with adjustable sights.I recently got into old Colt revolvers and the Official Police is really good. They have a butter smooth action with crazy tight lockup (like all Colts) and can handle hot .38 loadings despite never officially being +P rated. They were designed for .38/44 loads.Because they aren't snake guns nobody cares about them so they sell for fairly modest prices. Great shooters too.>>64425734I'm playing on a medium difficulty setting so I'm not scrounging for ammunition as badly as I could be, but it is scarce enough that I have to manage what weapons I'm using depending on the mix of threats I'm encouraging. I like the level design and world building so I spent a lot of time secret-hunting throughout the campaign, which helps tremendously as well. I ended up with tons of gun parts for weapon upgrades doing this, and boosting damage really helps ammunition last longer.I don't know how far into the campaign you are, but you can cheese most of the initial onslaught of "Old Town" by stacking barrels and getting on the roof of the saloon. Also the "Fairgrounds" is a complete slog. Feels way too long.
F.E.A.R. is 1 of the best games of all time! The closest we'll get to a fucking reboot is Trepang2.
>>64423293I became a janitor that wants to move back to his homestate to go to college for free. I wish I never moved sometimes.

>>644245391942
>>64426334>>64423288God FEAR was an experience and it really did have the best shotgun. It's the only shotgun that you keep an entire game in a "Only 3 guns" game.
>>64422927>I've been playing ready for knot
>>64426334Trepang2 is fucking great. Did a Rage difficult thinking it would be challenge but a bit painful and not fun, But I had a lot of fun once I knew when to back off or strike them mallcops. It's "F.E.A.R but with more speedy/advanced moment and aggression" playstyle is something I want more of. I just want more Trepang than F.E.A.R at this point. Banger OST and Gun audio too.
>>64426334Ah, i was thinking about playing a horror shooter now that we are close to halloween. Does fear hold up? or do i need to slap a few mods on it to make it work?
>>64424170agreed
>>64422065>>64422950Far Cry 2 was the only good one, because it was fundamentally Heart of Darkness. Also, do read its IMFDB page, the guy writing captions for the pictures is hilarious.I'll die on the hill that 1, 3, 4, 5, whatever are hollow dogshit action games with no depth at all. Boring.
PUBG is all I play anymore. Best gunplay of any game in existence.
>>64427200Farcry: Instincts was the best one you plebian. And Jack Carver was the Jackal, which still means Instincts was the best.
>>64421945
>>64426334Based. Just started F.E.A.R. myself a few days ago. It’s incredible. The atmosphere combined with the gameplay are perfect for my specific brand of autism.
>>64421945I suck at this game.
>>64427200Far Cry 2 is indeed the best one but I'll vouch for Blood Dragon as well. If it wasn't open world it would've been even better.
>>64422065None, just 2>>64427200The Heart of Darkness theme was amazing>>64427220He's not the Jackal, that was confirmed. >>64427494Fuck BD
>>64423056It is slightly better in some ways than a m551 sheridan and its cheaper, so there's that
>>64424778Same
I never played Farcry 1 or 2, but I throughly enjoyed 3, 4, and 5.
CS2
>>64425685Based dead money chad, most people can't handle the resource scarcity since they were used to the piss easy base game. It's the only part of the 3d games that feels apocalyptic imoFor me it's the automatic rifle, if they added a cutts compensator as an attachment that improved its accuracy it would've be my main weapon. Thank God for mods kek
>>64426887Dont know of any mods, just refer to the pcgamingwiki for workorounds for modern systems, widescreen, etc.
THE BLADE IS COLD YES?
>>64424686I don't understand why everyone likes the first one so much more. Sandstorm is fun in my opinion. What's wrong with it?
>>64421945frontline had an amazing soundtrack
>>64422694>>64424820Have you tried Beyond All Reason? >TA based made by volunteers, don't have to spend a dime to play
>>64424749Good game. This along with Max Payne are some of the few games I can think of where you can dive in any direction & be able to shoot while laying on your back prone. Add some physics to that and you get a pretty solid gunplay model.
Pic related is close to my heart. Love the Future Force Warrior extras. If only..
Speaking of older games, this one is hits home.
>>64424690>>64424755>>64424803Why is DICE incapable of just re-releasing Bad Company 2 with better graphics? Or has the nature of shooters changed so that anything that isn't expressly made for streaming MLG faggotry doomed to fail?
>>64428943>two different versions of the game, depending on which console you were playing onSplinter Cell: Double Agent did the same thing, and it always struck me as bizarre.
>>64422715I love source as well. I have a ingrained memory from that game using a suppressed pistol to hs an enemy from across the map. Hitscan made its instant bullet travel hilarious to experience.
>>64428990It’s a corporation, not some mom and pop outfit. I’m sure EA/DICE has no idea what made their previous games popular. Remaste/remakes only work when there’s enough demand for it.Those games had their time, change is inevitable.
>>64428999I'd guess the older consoles were still relevant enough to get games, but the gap between them and PC/PS3/X360 was enormous. Not just a performance difference, but the previous gen consoles couldn't even use the same rendering techniques because they had no modern-ish shaders or anything. Dunno how many game engines supported both of those, either.So either you had to find a game engine that supported both old and new platforms, and develop a game that can work on both (likely with some compromises from sharing assets and code between very different platforms), or just develop two different games.I don't think crazy perf gaps like that even exist any more. A random mobile device can, in theory, handle nearly the same assets/shaders/etc. as a high-end gaming PC. Probably not very fast, but anyways.And gaming power per $ has barely gone anywhere in at least half a decade. If anything, performance is going down from all that raytracing/realtime global illumination crap they're shoving even into games with entirely static environments.
>>64422065I loved playing Far Cry 2, and Far Cry 3 was pretty damn good as well. Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon was pretty alright too. I didn't pay much attention after that though.>>64422009I will agree that the respawning checkpoints in FC2 gets very repetitive once you go through it several times. If the respawns felt more randomized and organic to keep things fresh that would have been a lot better.
>>64422546Oh shit I remember playing that as a kid! That's a throwback for sure, thanks pal.
>>64429019EA was a corporation who were run by execs who'd buy a company that was doing well, come in with a bunch of flowcharts explaining what kind of shoes were doing well and they need to start producing these kind of shoes, only to fire all the staff as they turn around point out they are a bakery.
>>64423061Great mod recommendation, thanks. I'll definitely give that a try when I make a new Hardcore playthrough. Should make it less tedious overall and makes clearing the checkpoints much more worthwhile rather than just constantly sneaking around and avoiding them on foot.
>>64423184A classic for sure.
>>64421970>>64424726>Why does growing up suck so much bros?>Your heart diesIf I'm being frank here, it's probably because you haven't learned to grow up properly yet in the first place if I'm being honest with you felllas. That, and you're probably suffering from depression as well. I've been through that myself. You know what's helped me to grow up and feel more masculine and energetic in my adulthood? Sunbathing. Turns out sunlight exposure is incredibly important for testosterone and neurochemical function. Sunlight will certainly make you feel better if you're not getting enough of it in day-to-day life. So go get some if you're feeling down on your luck. Just be careful not to burn your skin. Good luck dudes>>64421945Been playing Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault. It's a cool game, a little janky in it's gameplay, but cool nonetheless. Makes me feel like I'm back in WW2 fighting the Japs again in the jungles.
>>64427249I recommend Blitzkrieg mod, its on steam too. Fantastic for skirmishes.
So which of these FC2 mods is the go-to? https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Far_Cry_2#Mods
>>64429069Pacific Assault is very underrated and also rarely brought up when MOH is discussed on /v/ and /vr/. So many instead have nostalgia for the downright atrocious Rising Sun on the consoles.One thing I liked about PA a lot is that ammo is not plentiful and you are constantly on the last mag or two. It's also fairly challenging at points.The only real flaw is the dogshit airplane mission. Sadly by the time it came out Call of Duty was the superior ww2 shooter.
>>64427215They're ruining it. It's on its last legs. The gunplay will be gone in a year or two. DMRs are now dogshit to use, every one of the guns they'd added in probably 4 years feels like a super soaker, and they desperately want to kill off ARs like they tried to do with DMRs.The game is now being solely made for nogunz whales from East Asia with no taste in gameplay or guns.
>>64429224>The only real flaw is the dogshit airplane missionLuckily for me I played lots of first person flight simulators before that mission so I got used to the controls pretty quickly, but the fact that they even had a dedicated flying mission in an FPS game based mostly round infantry combat was pretty jarring to say the least especially when the flying was poorly executed as well. Seemed like an afterthought to me. Really weird choice from the devs there. But the next mission after that made up for it easily. Tarawa Atoll is my favorite, hands down. The Pacific campaign doesn't get as much worthwhile attention compared to its European counterpart in my opinion, but oh well. Beggars can't be choosers, that's for sure. You make do with what you've got.
>>64429353It's been about 10 years since I played it but I have a vague memory that controls were bound to mouse for movement and maybe that's why I remember it as very uncomfortable.Speaking of planes, I recommend pic related and its sequel. If you like Ace Combat, you will like this too. From the era when Ubisoft was still making good shit like Brothers in Arms.
>>64428978Countless hours spent in Terrorist Hunt, crawling around the map for 20 minutes until some AI catches a peak of me and screams “AIM FOR THA HEAD” before they dome me
Helicopter controls in Battlefield 2 were absolutely perfect and i will never understand why people shit on them
>>64429359Hell yeah, thanks for the recommendation, anon. That'll go on my list for sure. And yes, for Pacific Assault on PC, movement is on the mouse by default and it's inverted as well for up and down directions. Really messes you up for the first time after running and gunning on the ground on foot lol. But that's war for ya. Anyways, fighter planes will forever be cool and interesting. God bless American air power.
>>64428978this activated the tacticool dressup gene in me
>>64428883Yeah. I love the graphics which are a huge upgrade from the old TA engine that Escalation uses. However, BAR has fewer units, so while I think it looks a lot cooler it doesn't have the same strategic depth.Escalation is free to play too.
ARMA 3
Been playing HOIIV Old World Blues mod. Lots of bullshit but it’s still fun
>>64429237Yeah the devs really do hate us. Every single update is a middle finger to the old base. That DMR nerf was brutal. The mini 14 is less than worthless.
>>64424803Suppression is a stupid mechanic as it exists in most vidya and frankly it does nothing of value. BF and Squad are largely to blame.
>>64424316>>64422044> Quasimorph> FoxholeFinally some good fucking recs
>>64422065Three so that you can take part in the Rakyat’s ancient trials like getting high and hunting a water buffalo with a grenade launcher.
>>64424170Anon, Perfect Dark had an alien sniper rifle that could shoot through all of the walls, floors, and ceilings on the level. Maybe you never had to fight someone using it in multiplayer, but it’s incredibly broken.
>>64429947Red Faction had a similar weapon.
>>64429947This game was so ahead of its time, we are still catching up to it.
>>64421945WWI Series, particularly Isonzo. When I spawn for A-H, I take the Steyr M.14 and pretend that I'm a veteran of Boer Wars.
>>64421945I just play oldschool runescape
>>64429947>>64430042I used to crank it to art of Joanna Dark spanking the female "zakos". The magic of puberty
>>64429678that mod is the only reason to buy hoi4, it's fantastic.
>>64430238Nice.
>>64429216Of all the ones I've tried only Tom's Vanilla+ seemed decent, Redux made the game run at 15 frames per second and Realism + Redux makes a whole heap of unnecessary changes.>>64429050You'll still have to deal with enemy patrols regularly however.
>>64430320I'm mildly interested in EU5, but EU4 changed so much from EU3/the original French board game that I only ever played Westros Universalis because I hated the mechanic changes and "random generated leaders" so much.Europa Universalis: the Price of Power is the greatest board game of all time, usually I've played that with friends, it's soooooooooooooooooo99 much better to play with actual people. And the mechanics are much more faithful and impactful
>>64422002>Far cry 2Based.
>>64430343I remember being high-alching yew longs in Seer's village and looking out over the fields and forests as the slaves picked my flax and chopped my yew logs. I would short slaves who traded in multiples smaller than 500 for wasting my precious time."pick that flax faster negroes", I'd say aloud, to make my brother laugh.
>>64428978AIM FOR THEIR LEADER
>>64429367WHY YOU SHOOTIN THE WALL BITCH
Arma reforger server I frequent recently added a mod version of the backpack mortar and machine guns like in 1.6. This server does auto regen of supplies so I had to find something else to stick to, so I did some mortars. I took a cargo humvee, put 500 shells in the back, the two mortar pieces and set out to certain positions at the max range of the hottest point on the map, montignac. I would push out 40 shells from each position before scooting to another spot. Enemy team was bitching the whole time I was doing it, saying mortars were pushy shit and should be removed. I got like 89 kills before I ran out of shells, went back, got more and kept doing it. We ended up winning cause this enemy team spent too much time and too many assets on Monti trying to fortify it amid constant heli and mortar strikes. Next day the mortar backpacks were gone but the head admins put the adult mortars in which add the realistic ranges and said we could do it from our mob, and that it WONT be removed. I can still hit Monti and the increased dispersion on the rounds at that range make it even more effective for consistent saturation bombardment. I fucking love mortars.
>>64431245Based as fuck. 1.6 is shaping up to be incredible. New small experimental patch dropped today. l gotta see if they fixed AI supply teams finally.
Some retards were holed up in a shed on dayz tonight and i had a grenade. Now i have over a thousand nails and an ied

>>64430320I yearn for a Fallout RTS ala Halo Wars or DOW
>>64421945Got my cousin to play the TF2 campaign for the first time. Gen Alpha or whatever, 13 or 14 i forget. He had a fucking blast. It's short and sweet but all killer no filler. Had to look away at the end cause it still makes me emotional don't laugh at me.
>>64429359I remember this for the Wii and the motion control actually made it really fun. Outside of that fjord mission. Fuck that mission, I used cheats to skip it. The best was unlocking all the planes and going to Pearl Harbor with a Tempest and seeing how many Zeros you could kill in the ~30 ish minutes of the mission.
>>64432249BT, Ethan from infinite warfare, K2SO and Optimus prime as the only bastions of robro hope keeping me from becoming a full blown clanker racist
>>64421945Ive been hooked on this shitty game that's just called Vietnam War. It's amazing and absolutely unhinged at the same time. For instance, there's a "kill civilians" button you can press to order your squad to do a My Lai, and your character has a dedicated "war crimes" stat.On my first run I chose to be in the Air Force and I got stationed in Thailand. Immediately I got attacked by a dog with rabies inside the base and died, so when I respawned I spent the next half hour clearing the flightline of all animals, which drained my sanity stat so I had to go to a juicy bar to restore my morale. Then I hopped in a B-52 on a bombing mission over the Plain of Jars, got shot down because I couldn't figure out the controls, and had to evade Pathet Laos in the jungle, calling in airstrikes on my own position until a medevac chopper picked me up.
>>64428883Yeah I have, sorry that's what I meant by BA even though that's a completely different thing.>>64429205CoH with the Blitzkrieg mod is a blast. I loved doing comp stomps with buddies. I remember being really sad when they made the US rocket jeep Armor doctrine only.
>>64432353I forget the name of it, but there's a Sino-Japanese War mod for CoH where the ultimate unit in the game is just a regular M4 Sherman the Chinese get for speccing into the X and Y Force tech tree. I always thought that was amusing.
i've been bouncing between day of defeat: source, company of heroes 2, WARNO, steel division 2, and more recently starship troopers: terran command since a new update came out.>>64423056>least favoritebut what's your favorite? for me, it's 101st in both warno and sd2. i wish there was a good US div with amphibious transport for the rare times i want to assault across a river/lake without possibly losing it to AA.
>>64432488>DOD:SWas my jam back in the day, whooboy, but tried to get back into the nostalgia now, barely any players, if, then in servers filled with bots, same with CSS.Old geezers trying to have 20 minutes of machine gun fun on an organgemap after coming home from overtime, feels like.Best to cherish the memories of Donner, Kalt, Avalanche and custom beach maps.>19 years agoI need a moment.
>>64422136it's battlefield for the tiktok generation
>>64428867>Femoid soldier>Snow maps and jungle>Not real locations >No mosques>No call to prayers>Faster movement>Ugly cosmetics >Full auto being better than semi>No knockback after full rifle cartridge>Questionable gun choice (who even use that Chinese oicw?)I still play it to this day but it's clear it feels more like hardcore CoD than tactical shooter.
>>64424316I found quasimorph while perusing steam, turns out Seth did a vid on it. Its such a cool game, was addicted to it for like a month straight.
>>64432842>retard figures out how time works
RS2 also is this game always full of cheater? Like, I have run into multiple guys with 250+ping with 90kills on average and having 0.5 sec reaction time amids all the bushes and horrible anti-aliasing. Is this legit?
>>64432249>Gen Alpha or whatever,This gen bullshit is retarded, only greatest generation, boomer and millennials actually make sense as they mark notable event in history. Shit like gen x, silent generation, gen z or whatever is just strange as they don't mark anything new in history.
>>64421945Call to Arms Gates of Hell. My friends and I used to play modded out Company of Heroes until we found this thing. It's everything we were looking for.
>>64432302Looks fun
>>64432910based, I've spent several hundreds of hours on conquest. The game was everything I wanted (easy to get into for a session but realistic enough with a dynamic campaign with progression) Am now eagerly awaiting the bongoloid dlc.
>>64432182Always felt that RA1 was the more underrated and /k/ in tone even if the game was legit just tank spam.
>>64433004RA1 is too primitive but its also not multiplayer based. The storyline is sick as fuck. I would even argue it started a conspiracy to memory hole the game franchise. After all the game practically entirely disappeared but later reemerged due to how fun it is to play the better multiplayer developed RA2 version of the game. The game came out like year 2000. And people a few years ago half my age took the game to twitch and YT to produce regular episodes of matches. I was super impressed and even got my kid a PC just to play it. Now we play it together. I always kick his butt but he's getting more quick and aggressive. RA2 was developed more so for better online multiplayer game play. Units can individually gain super power promotions for super long sustained kill streaks, and the basic battle tank can engage enemy units targeting them targeting them and fire shots at them while actually moving without needing to stop. Making RA2 a huge maneuver and fire tank battle. I wish they would fully update all the older C&C games to do the game. Needing to pause tanks so they may fire or else they will not shoot, and zero reward of individual promotion for a tank gaining sustained kill streaks makes the older C&C games so droning. Not to mention. The RA1 storyline has got to be the ultimate hard to swallow real life Red Pill by the fact when they eliminate Hitler by erasing him from time, all it does is remove him from being opposition against the communist war machine by taking him out of the way. Paving the way for an alternate WW2, ALLIED V. SOVIET UNION. Underrated indeed, and its continuing to somehow gain popularity. You can buy all the C&C games for like 5$ fucking bucks. And on top of that people are still throwing out free MODS of entirely new game add ons for the games. Fucking like C&C.
>>64433033>RA1 is too primitive but its also not multiplayer based. In a weird way it actually is. The whole engineer change was in response to engineer rushes online in Tib Dawn. They reverted the change in Tib Sun when they realized that it fucked the campaign and it was easier to just let players wall off key buildings like con yards to nerf it as a strategy.>basic battle tank can engage enemy units targeting them targeting them and fire shots at them while actually moving without needing to stopQ move was a thing introduced in RA1. Legit the most valid strategy in 90% of missions where you can build is just to get a bunch of mediums or heavies and Q move through the enemy base. Its what legit fucks a lot of balance up as a light tank will 1vs1 a mammoth and win thanks to Q move.>RA1 storyIt is indeed an extremely interesting premise with Stalin being infinitely worse than Hitler. There's gassing and death camps mentioned in the story that most people won't pick up on in their first playthrough. Game does handwave a lot of things like how the British Empire should be the world superpower still in this timeline and Imperial Japan would be wanting to fuck the reds but then again the game is basically an asset flip that was meant to be a prequel to Tib Dawn.>somehow gaining popularityThe remastered collection was well received and the untouched version being free doesn't hurt things either. Tib Dawn last I checked was the more popular one online as it manages to be balanced probably by accident meanwhile RA is Allied or bust, seriously Soviets are so badly underpowered outside of grenadier rushes its not funny.
No silent storm anyone?
>>64421945Selaco
>>64432910what do you run it on?
>>64422715Hell yeah, it took the lame of battlefield and added the tactics of counterstrike
>>64430238Good luck on quitting anon. I deleted my jagex account and all my characters and haven't looked back, a few months ago. Life has gotten way better. >>64430343 is a good reminder of what this game once was and how jagex ruined it.
>>64421945they really have to patch psycho patrol R before I play more of it
>>64433410Jagex did ruin it, but there was no way to retain the magic of 04-07. As games become more optimized they're less fun, and the noob-heavy early days where the game was super accessible were never going to last.The only way would be to make a separate internet for people under the age of 15 and re-release 07Scape to them. And if they want a RuneHQ they have to make it themselves.
>>64421945Sprocket, it captured my autism perfectly, I've spent 500 hours doing and redoing tanks and MBTs
Highly recommended
>>64433004Both C&C1 and RA1 are in a very odd place where they came out at a time where there wasn't enough capability for the graphical aesthetic they actually wanted, and by the time both sequels came out they went too far off into science fiction that they lost what they had originally.I'm frustrated we'll never see a game fully do "early 90's NATO vs a crazy Serbian Techno-Cult" ever again.
>>64433004RA1 is a step down from C&C95 that came before. Some game mechanics are legitimately worse than they were before, and it's really not a good game compared to the first one.
>>64421945Days Gone had surprisingly good shooting & weapon selection.Obligatory RDR2 had realistic funs in regards to reloading mechanics
>>64435242It really was a product of its time and to think that when it released NATO had yet to fully commit till Tib Sun had released.>>64435326At least it doesn't have a complete overreliance of commando missions which makes it campaign far more enjoyable than Tib Dawn.
>>64429069Tell me this is copy pasta
>>64421945GTA 4 is the only GTA with good gunplay IMO, the MP10 is so good it might be the best gun in the series
>>64433300An old-ass second hand gaming laptop. 1070, i7 6700hq, 32 GB ram. It does fine at 1080. I've never had an issue that makes it unplayable or even all that unpleasant. Gets a little laggy sometimes, but the game is really good about turning down settings on the fly, so if your friends start to lag because your potato can't keep up, it'll turn down your graphics a bit and you can all keep playing. I don't even notice a loss in quality. I should also add that my performance overall seems to have degraded in the last few months. That Chinese bitcoin miner I inadvertently installed has slowed things down a bit. I almost never had any problems with the game in the past.
Intravenous 1 and 2 are peak. I remember playing it for the first time, enemies found splotches of blood from a kill I made, and the entire fucking map went into alert and started trying to hunt me down. Real good shit.
Bodycam, although it doesn’t look like any of you poorfag shitters ITT have a PC that can play it
>>64435538I spent all my money on guns and ammo :(
>>64424876the bloody thing crashed every time i got halfway through the deagle level or whatever the max rank wasare there some tricks to speed through the early levels like an elite operator? after several hours when it crashed for the third time i just never started it up again
>>64432777dods has a lot of players in evenings or on weekends. i play on the 415 servers typically which have a lot of fun custom maps.
>>64435538>spending a few thousand every couple years for graphics that aren’t that much better than consoleNah, retard. I’m done doing that shit. Guns are forever.
>>64435745>a few thousandSomeone got tricked by Rajeesh-prebuilds.
>>64435850How much did you spend on your cpu and graphics card? I’ve never paid someone to build anything for me.I run Linux. You run wangblows. We are not the same.
>>64422110There is an actual Expanse: The game thougheverbeit.
>>64435538Bodycam is FOTM tier. The original Ghost Recon/Rainbow Six games are forever, since ubisoft hasn't bothered to make any more games like them; every new entry in each series always a step back or direct downgrade
>>64435538
>>64436610and it's a multiplayer only
>>64425342This operation was where the only working Tiger 1 was captured. Snapped this pic of it at Bovington about 3 years ago. (Matilda 1 breaking down after moving maybe 10 yards was the funniest thing ever god bless her)
>>64421945Guts & Blackpowder
>>64422715such a shame sandstorm was so gay
>>64422715I much prefer the gameplay of the original.>>64436780Its the fact they kept removing features long before it became a skin selling simulator really ruined the potential of the game.
Good ol' skyrim with colonial rifles modded into it and roman/viking/crusader armors plus some mandalorians and space marines & ofcourse monster hunter megabeasts for the spicy taste. It's a given I quicksave every 3 minutes, game is as unstable as the turkish economy.
>>64421945Anyone remember Shadow Company, the 1999 game, all I remember is the demo.
>>64429947>>64430042Perfect Dark was that perfect blend of Goldeneye meets Cyberpunk and giving every weapon two modes was a nice feature.
>>64422044I was there, I was there when we won the war on Charlie 9, the longest Foxhole war in history. Up there with the battle of B5RB in EVE in terms of player driven warfare. Even surpassing it with over 18 million total casualties. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmvmFOyRaKg>>64429359This game was based as ever loving fuck on the Wii
Afraid of monsters and my god is the shotgun annoying to use. After being spoiled by the shotgun in ready or not, I don't believe I can accept any other form, except for the shotgun in DRG, and only because of upgrades. Also>lbn4 FEAR shotgunUnless you're shooting within 5 meters, you're going to be doing very little damage.>>64436921Perfect dark is just goldenturd, but actually finished and ten folds more refined.
>>64437392>>64436829I used to dunk on fools with the M4 barrage at ranges today unimaginable in vidya, let alone competitive.Agree on the FEAR shotgun, though, overhyped.
Highly recommend Sea Power: Naval Combat in the Missile Age. The base game spans the mid-late cold war, but there are a lot of mods bringing in modern or even future designs.
