There are so many mods. I usually look at the top endorsed files list and pick the ones that I like. UI mods, radio/song additions, extra missions, etc. You maybe want to skip the major overhaul mods for a second playthrough but I haven't played them so who knows?

Really hoping Broken Age wins the vote. It has been the only thing I have wanted so far from the community vote stuff. Because of this I just assume it is going to lose.

is Crimzon Clover WORLD IGNITION a good shump to pick up? any thoughts guys?
Click to expand...
Oh, my friend, you've come to the right place.

If you have any sense you've bought it already, before I even thought up this post. If you still haven't, here's my review on Steam:

Oh My God it's full of stars

*baby floating in space to epic music*

The original doujin release of Crimzon Clover, which came out in Japan only in 2010, was nutso enough, with explosions and lasers galore, a shop where you had to buy continues, levels and even new ship types with in-game currency, and a punishing difficulty that set it apart from the other "bullet hell" shmups out there. WORLD IGNITION, a port of the later arcade release on NESICA coin-ops (again, only in Japan) takes that insanity and cranks it up to twelve - no, twenty.

Now, you don't need me to tell you how to play a top-down shmup, it's like sucking eggs, everyone already knows how it's done. What's different about CC is the Lock-On weapon radar, which locks on to any enemies within its radius and showers them with homing lasers/rockets/sniper bullets of Death (depending on the ship you're using) and the Break System, which amounts to filling a bar at the top of the screen by shooting down enemies. When it's full you can press a button to instantly power up all your ship's weapons for a few seconds, and the display of wanton laser-green devastation is nothing but impressive. But wait - fill the bar again while in Break Mode, and you can press the button again for (wait for it) Double Break Mode, which is like holding a lit match to Magnesium - the brightest lightshow seen in shmup history. It's also good for your score multiplier, too, which helps.

It's a pity that the original game's Shop mechanic never made it back in - it was one of the most original things about the game, and made it a meaty single-player experience, but this seems to be a faithful port of the arcade release, which obviously didn't have the shop, so I can see why it wasn't included. Ah well, the meat of the game is here, and oh so much more, so rest assured that you're getting your paltry entrance fee's worth and more. Better than Jamestown? Yeah, by miles. Better than Ikaruga, though?...I'll have to get back to you on that.

If that doesn't convince you, take another look at the store page you have linked. Now, imagine that running on your monitor, in full-on Tate mode, with a driving techno soundtrack pounding mercilessly in your ears as the blazing technicolour mass of pixellated lazer-death assaults your eyes and fries your neurons, assimilating your very thoughts to its arcade-twitch reflex demands, and eventually consuming your very soul with its DOUBLE BREAK MODE vortex of eldritch Lovecraftian insanity. Before you know it, you are a mere slave to the machine, hopelessly and helplessly trying again and again to relive the ecstatic fever of achieving that elusive high score. Not since Pac-Man Championship Edition DX+ has gamerkind seen its like, and they stand together, proud and overwhelming, as Gods in the fallow wastes of fallen Steamhalla.

So yeah, it's quite good. Check it out. I'm hoping for an Astebreed deal myself.

So I got Arma II + Operation Arrowhead.

I can now play Day Z on it, correct?

Do people still play it on Arma II or is it pretty much dead since Day Z came out on its own?

Everyone remotely interested in (tactical) multiplayer shooters should really give Insurgency a try. It's still a daily deal for another 20 hours.
The game feels a lot like Red Orchestra (it's actually made by one of the guys behind the original mod), but on a slightly smaller scale. No gimmicks and perks, no unlocks. It's great fun and I regret I didn't buy it sooner.
