Is Caribbean! anything more than a Mount and Blade reskin?

Also, has Eador been patch enough to be worth playing now?

 

[Eanan]

I think I heard it was supposed to be garbage but maybe someone will correct me.

Yeah lots of negative reviews. Oh well

 

[Grief.exe]

I would be wiling to pay ~20 dollars for all the cods not including ghosts. Get it together Activision. Also Fall of Cybertron still being 60 reg is silly.

 

[Tenrius]

So I played through the training in Battlefront II (took like 20 minutes) and everything worked fine. Not sure about the aspect ration though, it seems to be 4:3 (with correct proportions), even though I set the resolution to 1080p. I suppose it can be worked around, of course.

They have some balls on them charging $15 for the original Call of Duty and $15 for the expansion

Not to mention $30 for black ops 1

nothing to see here

 

[Knurek]

Both War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron were 75% off in the latest Amazon sale. $5 and $15 respectively, the base price for Fall is just out of control.

True, but a) this is Acti we're talking about, and b) there's a general, long-running tendency to reduce the general discount and just about make every sale unappealing (current Disney sale is also 66% off, and who can forget that lovely Capcom DLC sale).

According to WSGF it's Hori+ so it should be native to your monitors aspect ratio.

Just wait until the May Day sale happens. You'll be having kittens!

Sure, it's possible, but just going by the information we have from the Amazon sale.

 

[DocSeuss]

Fuck, I know you needed that too.

So how are you supposed to improve yourself if you aren't made aware of the issues? What if the issues were just some superficial bullshit or a general misunderstanding?

Unemployment benefits an option in your area?

There. Specifics.

I don't

I really don't know what to do right now.

Can't get on unemployment, haven't made enough money to qualify.

I have just been fired.

Apparently, people complained about me, but the specific nature of these complaints were not detailed. In fact, it's "not my job to tell you about any complaints. Sometimes, thing just don't work out."

Fuck.

condolences, man. Hope something better comes along.

I certainly hope people aren't buying Bloodlines? Troika doesn't see any of that money

Activision always does this, they'll be $12.99 each on a daily sale or something. I know that their sale prices are stupid.

You could always get a friend to call the place you used to work at, pretend they're calling to check your job history since you're looking for a job with them, and see if your boss spills the beans that way? I don't know man, I'm sorry.

Wish I had the means to help you.

Oh, that is cool. I've heard good things about those games.

What do you want them to do then? Pirate it?

(I'm not trying to be snarky, I'm being serious.. what would you consider an alternative if a person wants the game?)

There is no other alternative, that is what he is referring to.

Well- I said yesterday 'it's my birthday month so it's time to buy games!'

Didn't expect I'd see a deal on May 1st that I wanted.

Bought myself shadowrun + expansion. Woooo!!! Excited for this since Baldur's gate 2 EE doesn't work at all.

I'm actually starting to feel bad that behemoth gave us beta testers free copies of their game. I'm going to have to buy a copy as a gift to show my support for them.

[Tizoc]

I noticed that M.A.V., an homage to that other indisputably great From Software game, is hitting early access in a couple of hours.

Definitely going to try it after my CS:GO buddy goes out of town for work later this week.

Is it F2P?

But that doesn't look anything like Otogi 2!

I think it's $19.99

 

[Aerocrane]

No, it costs $20 from the developer's website, which I assume will be the Early Access price.

Ooh no idea but here's the list of key bindings.

Most isometric RPGs I've played over the countless years you could get away using just the mouse except for a few actions. Hopefully someone might be able to chime in.

Other then some hacking parts, where you have to type in a code, I'm pretty sure you can play it just using the mouse.



Yeah, that's a fair assessment of the original campaign. Dragonfall adds in a lot more options for role-playing and feels a lot less linear. Combat is pretty easy in both campaigns.

Thanks guys!

Remember when Denmark sponsored a Minecraft version of their town to allow people to explore the city? I thought it was just available for download, I didn't know they had hosted this on a server. Apparently hilarity ensued.

Since last week users of the Minecraft computer game have been able to explore a life-size model of Denmark in the game.

READ MORE: Gamers can virtually visit and download Denmark in Minecraft

But DR Nyheder reports that within a couple of days the model had been changed radically and the creators of the model will now reboot it.

Chris Hammeken, the chief press officer at the geodata agency Geodatastyrelsen, which originally constructed the model, described some of the modifications users have already made.

Levelled to the ground
“Several large Danish towns have been levelled to the ground and a lot of new things have been built all over the place. We don’t have a complete overview yet, but we’ll probably choose to reconstruct Copenhagen and the other cities,” he told DR.

A user of the entertainment, social networking and news website Reddit, RandomDKguy, posted a screenshot of American tanks invading an area of Copenhagen, complete with a number of Stars and Stripes flying, under the title ‘Americans are going amok in the Denmark map in Minecraft’.

At the time of the model’s launch, Thorbjørn Nielsen, one of the model’s co-creators, had appealed to users to “make changes in Minecraft-Denmark with respect and show consideration for others”.

If nothing else, I hope this gets Valve's attention and they stop letting this type of buffoonery on their store. Jim was right to make fun of this "game", but he probably got this guy all kinds of sales by doing it.

Kind of reminds me if that time I went to Legoland and got in big trouble trying to take apart some of the landmarks there.

Jim did this video on the Tubes Of You where he eviscerated the game in particular, and Steam's lack of curation in general for allowing such shitstains on its market, even as Early access, to begin with.

As ever in these cases, Jim was right on the button, and someone got butthurt over it.

Trust me, I still wonder how in the seven hells I managed to snag a code for BO2 for 7€.
I think it has something to do with a massive debt my friend had with me over ice cream and hamburgers.

im not suggesting pirating, that is against gaf's rules, but just that people realize where their money is going.

I have a 40% off Luftrausers coupon if anyone wants trade a few cards for it.

 

[FiveElementNinja]

I am getting drops from Aerena. If you paid money for the game you will get cards. If not, you won't. So gift copies won't get cards. (Which is to be expected.) I got it from a bundle so I guess that's why I am getting card drops.

Yes, but your logic is flawed in that to legally own the game, someone has to buy it, and Acti gets that money in any case.

Therefore, if you want to play Bloodlines (as you should), you don't already own the game, and you wish to protest what happened to Troika, then it behooves you to pay the least amount possible for the game, so that the amount Acti gets is correspondingly less, does it not?

Not many visual mods, but there are many for multiplayer (the source code for single player was released for the public only last year). I stopped, but for many, MANY years i played moviebattles, there's bound to be some people there still.
