Battlefield Bad Company. Apparently the servers were just shut down a few months ago but it was only released on 360 and PS3. The multiplayer for that one is still better than most that came after and the campaign is awesome too.

I've been on PC for about 3 year now but still use a controller for everything that will allow it. But any time I try to use a keyboard it's just universally awful. It's unintuitive, you have to use your movement fingers for lots of other actions, bending your fingers in weird ways, mouses are finicky, sensitivity always feels way off, and it just plain hurts my hand and wrist. How do people use this as their primary controller?

I will say, though, that as much as I thought no world building would bother me, there were a few things that did. Like how the Western Front has the exact same kind of gear and training as official military. So this led to the question "were these service members who revolted against the POTUS and absconded with this equipment, or was it spoils of war from militia members who defeated U.S. soldier to acquire them?" Talking about things like helicopters, humvees, fucking tanks, mortars and RPG. And if it's the latter then how did so many people get the training to operate those vehicles? I also wasn't a fan of almost everybody wearing military uniforms which made it hard to figure out who was who at times.

I'm pretty sure all the soldiers they interact with are WF but I agree it's hard to tell and I think that's the point. Although the president refers to them as secessionists and we only ever hear about three states in the rebellion I think it's easy enough to infer most of the nation was against the president since they did manage to overthrow him and the fighting wasn't just in the southwest. I don't think just California and Texas would be able to do that, especially with Florida dragging them down. So if the majority of the military joined the WF they would be the de facto military. Even though secession and rebellion are dirty words in real life I think the WF were supposed to be the good guys, taking down the corrupt government.

Quorthon109 posted...
A source close to the movie said the images help imagine the nationwide impact of the film's fictional war. "These are AI images inspired by the movie," a source said. "To clarify, they aren't movie posters, just images for Instagram. The entire movie is a big WHAT IF and so we wanted to continue that thought on social - powerful imagery of iconic landmarks with that dystopian realism."
This comes across pretty clearly in the pictures. It's weird that they did this but it's just a throwaway social media campaign. Hardly time to get out the pitchforks. This is just twitter being intentionally dense again.

I think that goes without saying. I just mean the bones of the game. You can make an RE homage with fixed cameras and tank controls but you can make it a little smoother. There's really no reason to make a game look like RE1

The shitty 3D graphics era of games hasn't been inducing much nostalgia in general
We're really starting to hit this era. There's a ton of indie games that have low poly styles and a lot that even throw pixel and low resolution filters on top of them to make it look extra shitty. I would much rather they take the gameaply they liked from these kinds of games and translate that into an actual modern game. There's enough cheap engines and assets out there that anyone can toss together a half decent looking game.

Boomer shooters kinda crashed thanks to Slipgate Ironworks and 3D Realms. They spewed out three mediocre or incomplete shooters in a short timespan late last year and early this year that got mixed to poor reception, simply because they suddenly had a change of ownership so they need to get out their current projects ASAP.
Go look at the steam FPS fest going on right now. Boomer shooters are still are all there is

The main characters love interest just gets unceremoniously and accidentally cut in half, pinned to a wall, and her guts fall out. It's so sudden and graphic and to a character that is definitely not supposed to die.

Honestly, going all out was probably the best move anyway. People act like this was out of nowhere but the mods and admins have had to constantly tighten up the rules and ban specific things because CE can't even handle having memes. So now it's be nice or get the boot. And going private shouldn't be that big of a deal. When's the last time a legitimately new person came here? Nothing will really change here but now you're actions may finally have consequences.

He's a worthless moron who fucks up everything he touches and also a complete psychopath motivated by power. He's willing to kill multiple friends and allies to get what he wants. But he also doesn't know what he wants or why. And also has no personality. Why was he supposed to be a protagonist? The cannibalistic murderous Ghoul had more redeeming qualities.

Mass Effect Andromeda is a decent game. There were just too many butthurt fanboys mad at the ending of ME3 to give it a fair shake so latched on to bad animations to justify the hate. These same ones that yelled about the end of ME3 because "my choices didn't matter" are strangely silent about the idea of the next Mass Effect having to make some big decisions become canon.
The gameplay really drags Andromeda down. When I first jumped in I really liked the story and the characters, It felt like a Mass Effect game. But once I could free roam on a planet it sapped the fun out of the game pretty quickly. It's some sub-Ubisoft open world design.

Yes it does. It's like when Jarhead got ripped apart because people thought it was an action war movie. People are free to dislike something because it wasn't what they expected but it is in no way a films fault if people misinterpret its intent and try to take it out on the movie itself. "Why doesn't this film take a stance on modern American politics" is just as valid as "why doesn't this movie take a stance on American football".
