The one thing I hope they patch in to make first person driving more viable, is to have the option to make the camera reset if you let go of the right stick. As it is, move the camera to look around and it stays there, need to move it back manually. That's what throws me off. Goddamn ramming a car in first person is something to see though.  What car body did y'all choose for your Magnum Opus? I decided not to go for the perfect V8 intercepter rebuild (Wild Hunt I think it was), and instead chose Shovelface. Looks the right balance of speed and aggression.

Tried it this morning before going to work. Runs perfectly well at high settings (but limited resolution, because my screen is crap) on a 2-year computer.

So hey is it just me or is there mouse acceleration that you can't turn off in this? Since it's brand new the only thing I've found relating to it is a blind download off some whack-rear end youtube video.

I played it last night and subsequently only had time for around five hours sleep, rather than my usual seven. Totally worth it, can't wait to come back tonight and stab more dudes with shivs.

Since it's brand new the only thing I've found relating to it is a blind download off some whack-rear end youtube video. I don't think it's mouse accel if you mean the camera controls, the camera just has a little bit of a wind-up/down when you turn it for some reason. Even on controllers, it doesn't stop right after you let go of the stick like you'd expect it to. It's a bit annoying. If you mean including menus then yeah probably. zen death robot posted:I'll get this during the winter sale, maybe by then I'll be done with MGSV.

Yeah I took Wild Hunt. I just had to have the old Interceptor.. it's single player so gently caress it. I'm loving it, the steering is just really analog and if you stop and look at the front wheels while moving the left stick you can see how it's not linear. It's car and melee combat so far with the plot being there is a dick guy to later beat up and I want to build a sweet V8, pretty much what it should be. edit: you can turn off motion blur in the menus, if you dont like that poo poo. I dont.

Only played for an hour but really dig it so far. Guy called your dog a dinki di  Only 2 things(on pc), 1. where is that colour setting mode thing? I couldn't seem to find it. 2. Is there a difficulty level setting? If one was presented I think I blew by it.

So I'm clearing out the first camp, and the game chose that moment to throw its first storm at me.  Also, you can zipline while holding a jerry can. In fact, you use the jerry can to zipline. The music is great, while I type this there's a really primal drum beat going on that really sounds like it came straight from Fury Road.

I'm just trying to decide if I should get this fox PC or ps4. I have the rig to run it but I normally like driving games on the ps4. How hard is it to hook up the ps4 controller?

 There is this setting in the new nividia driver for Mad Max, when you apply it it then shows up in the game menus. If you've got a big video card and frames to burn this did steal a few from me, if you want to give it a shot.

Reviews make no sense anymore. 1886: The order was the most banal boring poo poo this year and got good reviews. That game is purest shite. I'm pretty sure at this point game journos just email each other. "Yeah i'm not feeling this game, giving it the vague unconstructive dismissal treatment" and then they all kinda just write the same review where they gibber on about how the game doesn't have enough wow factor and really you should be streaming until dawn on your youtube channel with 5 subscribers (who are all your mom).

I checked the audio options before starting the game, as you do, and noticed the option for "Fury". I played the game at regular sound levels and it was perfectly acceptable, but I really wanted to know what Fury was. Turn it on and it blows the sound levels of the game to SUPER loving LOUD SO YOU CAN HEAR ALL THE CARNAGE FOREVER. DO IT

 Redbox has presented me with a most shiny and chrome disc. This game is the best game. That shotgun blast sound...the engines roaring...the feel of impact from heavy hits...OH BLESSED BE I AM IN VALHALLA! I'm definitely buying this when I get paid.

Reviews are find and generally a good indicator of how fun a game is if you know where to look. Not always, obviously. Oftentimes a game appeals to a very specific niche, or doesn't hit its stride until you reach endgame territory, in which case a lot of reviews wont necessarily apply to it. There's enough of a consensus that this game isn't as amazing as it could have been with the talent behind it, so I'm happy to sit it out for now and save my limited time for better stuff.

Reviews are often only actually useful for people on the fence, which few people in this thread dedicated to the game seem to be, so complaining about them is like pissing in the wind. No reviewer is lying when they say they think the game is mediocre though

Guy called your dog a dinki di  I'm enjoying MM so far, although I'll be the first to admit that I love Ubisoft style 'do mindless, menial tasks via a huge map, over and over again' type gameplay. If that's not your thing, this game isn't for you.

Maybe it is hard to stay postiive about the game that is riding as a media tie-in to the best action movie of the year and is releasing the same day with the GOTY contender. This is a year of exceptional open-world games, so it is no surprise that tower-climbing skinner boxes will be held to a higher standard till the end of 2015.

So I'm driving out to test my new sniper rifle, spot an enemy car with a heavy ramming bar. He's alone and turns tail and drives off. I completely forget what mission I'm on and take off after him. My harpoon pulls his doors off, but I can't snag the driver yet. For 5 minutes, drum soundtrack urging me on, I'm boosting and chasing after this bugger. I see a group of nomad water refugees for the first time, two of them got run over by the car I'm chasing. I don't have time to stop for the survivor. Finally smash this car to pieces just before it reached the safety of a convoy, which thankfully didn't engage me as I was almost on fire. By now I'm deep in new territory and spot a crude tower built out of an airliner. Snipers. I drive to the base, leap out, and fight and roll my way up, dodging their bullets. I punch two of them off the tower, must have climbed 8 or so ladders by now, it's a veritable highscraper. The last one I meet is calling me to come and fight him like a man, 10 seconds later he's falling to his death with a broken jaw. I turn to start gathering scrap and immediately fall off the ledge and die. Magical. gently caress your sniffy reviews, game owns.

Oh my god. When you take over camps, they have a war crier to urge the troops on, gives them a buff if you don't take him out quickly. Leave him alive, kill all the rest. Trust me. He's hanging up there suddenly defenceless and he has the best dialogue. It's hilarious.

I wish I had a video of this moment... "I need the car"... "Here I am "... Chumbucket hits me with the car  This is a good game and I'm glad I bought it. It's like a post apocalyptic version of Shadow of Mordor, if this had the same Nemesis system it would be the best game ever.
