CharlieFoxtrot posted:Without getting into the debate inherent in that question, the game is based on the political upheavals of the 1960s and 1970s, so no, it doesn't really involve drugs. In the same vein, I'm looking for something most likely browser based that I can play with just a touchpad. I'd like a city builder or some other TBS/Sim game. Dwarf fortress is a little bit much for me to have fun with it

The Naruto games are somewhat similar, but they seemed less complex. I didn't put a lot of time into them. There aren't any other fighting games in big 3D arenas like that as far as I know.

Sam. posted:I meant a game where you do political stuff. I like CK2, but I'm looking for something with more fleshed-out intrigue, and preferably more contemporary. Shadow President is DOS abandonware and probably the best modern mapgame out there even today. Play the US right in the 90s right before the first Gulf War, with an ahistorical surviving Soviet Union as the big bad. Use diplomacy, trade, espionage, foreign aid, and outright war to further your goals.

My favorite plan in Evil Genius was using one side of the mountain to make an elaborate network of tunnels and locked doors to draw the agents in and try to unlock them, only to find that super secret level 3 door opened up to...an empty broom closet. Meanwhile the other side of the base had the important stuff. Also Bruce Lee was an rear end in a top hat and would *wreck your poo poo*.

DeathChicken described the accurate way to play the game. You are supposed to create an elaborate fake base to keep the cops occupied while your real goings on are happening elsewhere. If you just make one base you are probably going to be slowly whittled down since the agents are unkillable.

And don't bother too much with an elaborate hotel. Having just a bar, an elevator and a few valets is all you need to keep tourists occupied. Put a few level 4 security doors in the trap base BEHIND traps. Those doors attract agents like flies and are pretty much useless within your own base.

There's an exploit you can use. Early on, when you first get access to the world map, there will be no reprisal on the world map. So hire a bunch of goons, stick them on the more profitable regions, and keep the game running for a few hours. Boom, instant billionaire.

My son loves playing minecraft on my little brother's xbox 360, but I don't have such a thing. The PC version doesn't have controller support without having to do weird xpadder stuff or installing mods that don't quite match the functionality of the console versions. There are hundreds of minecraft clones though. Are there any decent ones that have native controller support on PC?

Len posted:Yeah but if you're gonna do that you m get as well just use the in game cheats for money. Same result but faster. It's a much more legitimate way of cheating. It helps/makes people feel as though they aren't cheating because they do it through the game itself and not by a command or editing files. Besides I skip that and just create a self sustaining base, load up minions on continents and check in every so often while I do other things. Or you could just increase the number of minions you can own and the game just becomes WAY more awesome. Speaking of increasing minion count I've stuck with 500, but in high traffic areas of my base I need to make corridors 3 blocks wide instead of 2. Has anyone found a lower count sweet spot?

The key is to make investigating agents work for you. If they leave the island without finding anything, it will decrease your heat. This can be accomplished three ways: 1) They don't find anything naturally. Based on luck, but you can help it along by having a few high security doors block a meaningless cave 2) They are helped. Your social minions (valet, etc.) have their own special attacks that confuses agents. Target intruders this way as soon as they start to break into your base, and you usually won't have to worry about them. Each minion works differently. Valets are great as long as the agent hasn't seen anything yet, spindoctors are the best overall, and diplomats are useless for this. Using nerve gas traps within your base will help as well. 3) Non-lethal torture. After you capture an agent, stick them in a non-lethal torture device (like the salad bowl). This will drain their smarts, making them forget everything they have seen. A valet will escort them out once they're done, and they will probably spend the rest of their mission scratching their head.

Are there any games like Harvest Moon but multiplayer? I'm looking for a new game to play with my girlfriend and we both love Harvest Moon & Rune Factory. I thought of something like wurm, but I don't think she'd like a game with strong PvP. She also vetoed Minecraft.

I need games that are like the end of the desert in Lost Planet 2, where you and your co-op partners take over a train armed with a huge cannon, and then spend an entire level trying to operate this cannon to fight a boss alien. Multiplayer co-op games where you all work together to operate some kind of machine or vessel. Guns of Icarus would be great if it weren't a competitive thing I'd have a harder time selling my buddies on. Star Wars Galaxies back in the day had multi-man vessels, and you could just tool around space with your crew harassing NPCs; like that, but less extinct. If there are single player games that hit similar notes, that'd also be nice. I played a bit of Rocket Slime on the DS, but it was kinda easy. I saw a trailer for a space strategy game where you played in first person on the bridge of one of the command ships and had to run around between the various computers, that'd be more interesting if I weren't garbage trash at strategy. FTL doesn't count since you're just bossing around a sprite crew on a set of blueprints, I'd prefer to be in the ship/tank/whatever.

Xeras posted:There is a MUD thread in Trad games here. I haven't played 3, but between 1 and 2 at least, even though 2 is a better game, 1 still holds up, so I'd say it's worth playing. Especially since the plot of the games doesn't really stop to catch you up to what happened in the previous ones so if you care about the story you'll be pretty lost if you start later in the series.

You can get a ship and have your guildmates control cannons and sruff. It's pretty sweet. You can do the same thing in Space engineers as well. Also Dead Space 1 is the best and only of the series. The rest is Micheal Bay bullshit in my opinion and doesn't even come close to capturing the atmosphere of the first game. The chunkiness is appreciated as well. Why do controls have to be so responsive for an engineer with no combat training? The whole experience captures what they were going for. DS2 and especially 3 are fun, but they just don't do it right, at all. There is no room for the whole spiel about how sequels are supposed to improve upon the game... This series was totally not meant to be continued. Not to mention the plot itself is not great, almost bad. At least when fleshed out, as a backdrop in text logs and such it works really well in DS1. I just couldn't take the next two installments seriously at all. NeoSeeker fucked around with this message at 11:26 on Oct 14, 2014 |

Check out "Shrapnel", abailable here: http://adamcadre.ac/if.html for a specific game. These are more like classic text adventures than IF, but I'd recommend the Frederick Pohl's Gateway games. They are fun sci-fi stories based on Pohl's novels, with pictures and a really good UI for the time.
