Support NeoGAF

[Knurek]

Been playing Bioshock Infinite in the minute amount of free time I had last week.
It's... okayish, I guess? I hate it that you can only have two weapons on you at the same time, no quicksaves in an FPS is a baffling decision.

Now that I think of it, it's a CoD clone, isn't it? Just without all the jingoistic overtones and some additional audiologs to collect.

Not sure what exactly is taking so much space here, does it have 20 versions of each and every texture or what? Oh well, game is running lovely so far, 60fps (with some drops to 55 here and there) with no noticeable stutter at least.

S4 Clegane is best Clegane.

but The Hound is the best Clegane...

Man I should have said the mountain.

And the big file size of Bio: Inf came from the DLCs.

 

[Lain]

So Jenny LeClue got Greenlit, but I don't see a new Greenlight batch out yet. Does that mean one is coming out today? Or it's just a special case?

 

[Arthea]

as a fan of the series, i'm personally waiting since WOTN was buggy as hell when it released

I would have preodered it, but I was sure it's early access for some reason, which it seems it isn't. So not only I don't have it (being a fan of series and all that), I'm not sure what to think about it.
But ya, I can totally wait, seeing as I haven't finished WotN and just bought dlc recently for it too.

There's a weapon wheel.
I kept forgetting about it too.

It's still pretty meh, tho.
Looks nice, shame about all the shootbangs.

Mountain Raffle

Just watched the trailer on Steam on mute, felt like I needed to play some Enya or something in the background, lol. Seems like a very meditative game.

Then I saw all the junk collecting on the mountain sides and I don't know what.

it was early access a few weeks ago-that's how I saw it on the store

 

[derExperte]

In case nobody noticed
is out already. I remember it being early "accessed" before, but it seems to be normal release. Anybody knows what's up with that?

Reading the Steam forum gives me the impression that they haven't put much work into it during ea and just released it as is.

That was my problem with it. The enemies are not that great and it reminds me a lot of Jak and Daxter 2; throw a lot enemies at you and shoot. Similar airship missions too. Burial at Sea is a much better game than almost all of Infinite.

I was afraid of that. Oh well, I can wait then.

It's bloated, whenever a fight breaks out you'll want to turn it off, and the pacing is a mess.

The first 4-5 hours are probably some of the best gaming i've ever experienced, though. It a shame that it only gets worse for the remain 10 hours. It was like a reverse TLOU for me.

Burial at Sea is a much better game than almost all of Infinite.

especially part 2, where it essentially becomes Bioshock: Dishonored. It actually became fun to engage in the action as opposed to the regular game, where the action was an annoyance.

 

[Blak_Status]

Oh my god Overruled looks fantastic I wish I could play with you guys but wedding planning and I didn't win. =P

Yeah Overruled looks awesome. I wish I won it.

We're also planning a wedding. The date is more than a year away and my fiance is already getting on my nerves. She talks about it everyday.

 

[Stumpokapow]

Good Luck

The code I won didn't work, already used. Thanks anyway.

 

[bigwinnerx]

Bully for $3.74?

 

[Sub Zero]

The code I won didn't work, already used. Thanks anyway.

Yeah, seems like I gave away the codes of the first four pack I bought. Sorry, my bad. I don't have you as a friend on Steam, so I'll send you a new code via PM

 

[Gipsy Danger]

If I were to buy The Witcher 3 from Mother Russia. Would it lock me out when the ACRTAG is set to false or will I be good as long as I redeem it before it is?

Sorry to quote myself but could someone let me know about this? Pretty new to the game.

 

[Panda Rin]

so I have Evolve stuck in my download queue. anyway to get rid of it?

Sorry to quote myself but could someone let me know about this? Pretty new to the game.

Once you have it in your library, you're good to go from what I've experienced and heard.

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

The lack of claustrophobic environments in Infinite is also a reason why it doesn't have the same impact. With Rapture, you had an environment that was crumbling and leaking at the bottom of the ocean. That's just easier to convey.

I am not being so articulate. I'm posting from my phone and haven't slept.

 

[Stallion Free]

especially part 2, where it essentially becomes Bioshock: Dishonored. It actually became fun to engage in the action as opposed to the regular game, where the action was an annoyance.

The stealth was so half-assed in part 2 that it actually soured me on that dlc all together. I actually would have preferred they just not have enemies or something if they needed to make it different for playing as Elizabeth.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

Bully for $3.74?

yes. there's a mod you'll need to download to get 60 fps, though, but other than that it's a decent port with 360 controller support.

Sorry to quote myself but could someone let me know about this? Pretty new to the game.

So long as you have activated it, you should be fine. The odds of them locking you out from the game after the fact are really really slim.

It wasn't really great but i still enjoyed that dlc than i did most of the action filler that the main game has. man, chop like 5 hours of filler from Infinite and you could've had a masterpiece, Irrational/Take 2.

Also, looks like those Revelations 2 rumors are turning out to be true. I say bring it on, but make the shooting not feel so damn mushy and impact-less for fucks sake.

Yeah, it was "stealth", but still with a shootbang engine, so nothing you did mattered as long as you weren't spotted or hurt anyone.

 

[Seanspeed]

Sorry to quote myself but could someone let me know about this? Pretty new to the game.

I'd be interested in knowing this as well.

I didn't mind the stealth aspects themselves, I just disliked that it was so necessary. In Dishonored you have the choice, but in BASPt.2, you basically have to do it all throughout.

Gracias.

When GMG will update the "best 50 titles evah" sale?

That flag would be no problem but they theoretically could ip lock the RU sub retroactively. I doubt they'll do it now but there's a small risk.

It's also doing it with The Witcher 3 in some places. GBR here and it says it on Steam store.

 

[Ruruja]

Is it because it says "English. French" on one line, rather than 2 separate languages?

 

[Alien8]

This seems to be the reason on Bully's case. The witcher 3 seems still don't have info about languages supported.

sheesh, had to roll it 16x times before it gave me the number i wanted.. thanks for the giveaway!

Someone earlier suggested it may be because there are no languages set yet. I have no idea though.

Witcher 3 is still pretty much staying away from the books right?
