Meowbot posted:

I am very excited for this game. I have probably put well over 365+ days of my life into playing just Quake and Doom. I have played a lot of Wolfenstein as much but it isn't my go to FPS. I could go into a rant about how all newer story based first person shooters are bad but it is way beyond that at this point. I just hope this is a good loving run around and kill everything game that I've been waiting a very long time for (I didn't much care for the new shadow warrior or ROTT).

The initial trailer looked so good and made it appear that the story is going to be pretty half decent. The gameplay looks phenomenal and I can't wait to try this on my computer I just built a few months ago. The only part that sucks is that it isn't out yet and I got to wait to play it some more. Good to see it is getting good reviews.

Very excited for Doom as well but well the movie and Doom 3 happened since so I have a hard time believing they can go back to doing what made the original so great. It isn't hard really guys. It is not that loving hard to make a good first person shooter and it is the most infuriating thing on the planet that no one can get it right.
yeah. i guess starbreez jr is making doom, and if they can make wolfenstein as compelling and dark as i have seen in streams, i'd love to see how they would make doom.

For the completely computer illiterate, how does one connect to a VPN? Or is that talk frowned upon?

Edit: I guess its more of a question is any random VPN safe?

FlyVPN is a piece of poo poo and I wish people stopped recommending that crap. Last time I checked you had to jump through a ton of hoops to create a free account on it like "post this on facebook and twitter" bs.

Go to https://www.privatetunnel.com/

download the vpn client, make a free account which takes 10 seconds, connect to UK from the client and restart steam > unlock > launch game > disconnect from vpn, done.

I'm pretty sure you just download it and put in the trial account details they list on the website because that's what I did. No account creation necessary. You might be out of date.

People that are already playing the game. Does it support aspect ratios other than 16:9 without letterboxing?
I'm getting sick of games that letterbox everything that isn't 16:9.

Tried changing to a single monitor to see if it'd let me play. The result was an extremely low, unchangeable resolution and it being set to my 769th monitor which apparently has a lot of pixels.

For those of us still waiting (I don't really want to gently caress with a VPN but I just might)-a new interview with one of the directors is up: http://gamecrate.newegg.com/wolfenstein-new-order-interview-narrative-story-music-1960s/

Honestly nothing really new but it's something, and a very short read, anyway.

Also, for anyone that is playing now on PC, do any of you have a Radeon? My card was the lowest recommended (6850) so I'm not expecting to play on Ultra settings or anything, I'm mostly worried about what someone said earlier about AMD cards being poo poo on the Rage engine? Any news/word on that?

I'm finishing up unlocking the game so I haven't tested yet, but I'd expect if there are any problems they'll be minor because of the driver work done for RAGE compatibility. Obviously the engine isn't exactly the same, but I doubt the changes to it were major enough to completely blow up like RAGE did at launch.

Don't worry. In 7 hours when my game finishes unlocking, I can tell you all how the game runs on my i5/7950.

I imagine the answer will be "60 fps maxxed out", but who knows!

Well I started a VPN to unlock early and it seems unpacking takes a lot more space than advertised. I had ~60GB free yesterday, downloaded the whole game (40.7) and now it's stopped unpacking and I have around 30 MB free on my SSD. It turns out I had Mass Effect 3 still installed on my SSD so I'm about to free up 20 GB, and hopefully that will be enough.

Edit: once finished unpacking, the folder takes up ~44 GB :psyduck:
Edit edit: and it keeps freezing on launch...I just get a white screen.

In celebration of the launch of Wolfenstein: The New Order, I might as well post up my completely ridiculous Weird War II library.

Weird War II stuff tends to span a few broad sub-genres:

- Occult: factions of the war engaging in "dark arts" in order to harness supernatural powers for various purposes. Summoning demons from hell, acquiring holy relics, attempting to access other dimensions, or using other forms of "arcane knowledge", etc. Some of this has basis in fact - Nazi Germany had several occult groups of which many prominent Nazi officials were members, and they legitimately believed they could tap into hidden knowledge of the supernatural in order to help them win the war. Expeditions were actually sent to locate relics around the world.

- Super-science: Scientific breakthroughs were plentiful during the war, but what if the factions were equipping really weird poo poo? Particle weapons, teleportation, flying saucers, time-travel, freakish medical experiments, etc. Again this has some basis in fact - as the war continued (and especially as Germany got more and more desperate) scientists engaged in increasingly off-the-wall experiments and ideas. There was a great deal of experimental technology that didn't get past the drawing board for various reasons - lack of funding, materials, facilities, practicality, or the fact that the war ended and there wasn't a need for it anymore.

- Alternate-history: what if things had played out differently, a different decision was made somewhere that changed the course of the war? What if the Nazis had won the war, what would the world be like today? What if we had been forced to engage in a land-war with Japan? This has a sort of sub-category to it as well:

- Conspiracy-theory: did Hitler *really* commit suicide in his bunker? Have high-ranking Nazis been in positions of power since the war's end? Do we really know everything about the war?

Beyond this, Weird War II stuff tends to fall into one of three types:

- Fiction: exactly what it sounds like. Jetpack-wearing Nazis with deathrays spilling out of UFOs to combat Allied mech-walkers armed with tesla weapons, poo poo like that. The tone can be all over the place, from depressingly apocalyptic to two-fisted pulp-action to nail-biting suspense-thriller and anything in between. Weird War II is broad enough that it can really accommodate any tone or style an author might want to implement.

- Non-fiction: obviously more mundane than fiction, but not necessarily less interesting. Historical accounts of expeditions to recover holy relics, technical discussions of war-time breakthroughs, thought experiments about alternate courses of the war with an eye for historical accuracy and plausability, etc

- "Non-fiction": alternative-publisher accounts of war-time activities, basically likely-fiction written as if it's non-fiction. Conspiracy theories about postwar Nazi organizations, Nazi contact with extraterrestrials, government coverups of secret experiments, stuff that the authors really want you to believe because it'll completely destroy everything you thought you knew about the world. Even if it's totally bonkers, it's still fun to think about.

I likes me my Weird War II. v:shobon:v

What's extra funny is how often it trickles into other stuff that's not really centered around it. It crops up in Outlast and the main plot of Call of Duty: Black Ops, according to the director 'Starship Troopers' is pretty much alt-history if the Nazis won the war, it's a really prevalent pop-culture topic even if people don't realize it right away.

I assume you have other shelves as well. Right?

Like the only literature you have should hopefully encompass more then just althistory Nazi/WW2 stuff.

Here's the thing, I'm a feminist.





So did you buy Ubersoldier 2 based on the strengths of Ubersoldier 1?

Collecting this stuff has been a hobby of mine for about a decade now. I'm working on writing a book about the genre; there's already one sort of about it ('Nazisploitation'), but it more of focuses on pop-culture history and is largely film-centric.

I mostly bought it because it was Weird War II, and it ended up being better than the first game. The set piece action is more fun, the locations are more varied, and it takes itself a lot less seriously and just has fun with its goofy premise.
