Stronghold wars would be a sick addition, something involving dozens of cars. I've unlocked 5ish regions now and this game is great for hopping in and destroying a camp or running a race.

I've unlocked 5ish regions now and this game is great for hopping in and destroying a camp or running a race. I wish that once the non-scrotal strongholds began to prosper, you'd start to see stronghold patrols out on the roads, or allied convoys where the enemy convoys used to run. As it is, there's places like Balefire, then nebulous "allies" (I have no idea who exactly they are) that take over the bombed-out camps you clear, and then nothing in between. The strongholds themselves change over time, and as you clear out a region you get sniped less, but the open world doesn't seem to react to improvements and changes in power nearly as much as would be cool.

girth brooks part 2 posted:I like how if you fall too far Max's bad leg goes out on him and he hobbles around for a bit. Although the "death by falling" distance is the shortest I've ever seen in a game. It's fairly realistic, but you see a 12 foot drop in a game normally you'd be like "that won't trigger a loss of health".

"So, uh, there's a rule that you can't kill the War Crier. Don't know if you know that but that's the rule." "Don't suppose you need anyone that can inspire people with music? I've been doing this for years." If only I could drive my own DOOF Wagon of spared War Criers with maybe Chumbucket as the flametarer. I mean they put a loving wrecked model of a WAR RIG in this game so you know I want more content where I can drive and fight around one of those Dragons of the Wastes.

Messing with the numbers for Cineon DPX should help you not burn your retinas. The best thing about SweetFX is that the changes happen in real time, as soon as you save them, so you don't have to keep closing the game.

The Ripper is a preorder bonus that actually doesn't suck. I love how bulky and tough it looks compared to the other body options, I thought I was gonna stick with Furnace the entire time but I was won over.Fat Samurai posted:Do the Archangels do anything besides being a specific set of parts? I've only unlocked the Jack so far. Nah they're just presets. You'll need specific ones if you want to use the Opus in Death Runs but other than that, big fat meh. Everyone's gonna want to build their Opus their own way, really, Archangels are just for people who want a reccomended loadout. Here are some things I suggest doing for a giggle: 1) Go back to the default starter V6 and see just how loving fast your car is with your usual engine. Seriously. It's agonising. and conversely, 2) Take all your heavy weaponary and armour off and use the most powerful engine you have, it's loving crazy.

Where's the upgrade that slaps a big rear end boxing glove on the end of the line? Don't hold out on me Chumbucket! Ofaloaf posted:Is it me, or do the top dog fights feel easier than a lot of the mook fights? There's no crowd control, no need to worry about getting mobbed when squaring off against one guy. There's one in Pink Eye's territory that actually got me killed a few times. Also, shirtless Max with all the gear upgrades looks loving awesome.

I like that in this game you're getting constant praise for being the most badass driver while likely bonking into poo poo all the time. Meanwhile, no one mentions that Chumbucket is the best marksman in the history of the universe.

Since shotguns do jack poo poo to Top Dogs and those dudes are the last guys you fight in a camp, I just emptied all my slugs into the ferals first thing then did the usual dodging and shivving routine with the boss proper.

Looking into more pieces of history I don't know how to take this being the new 52 Max with people around the great snow before the water evaporated talking about a "a post internet world". I guess extreme global warming is now the more likely doomsday scenario than Global Nuclear War, but something just don't click with me shifting the goalpost on that way with Mad Max. Especially with people still using 1970s cars now instead of newer model bodies. Oh well, back to killin'.

Game owns. I think my only complaint is the distinct lack of Australian accents. Like, Max's voice kinda sucks, and I haven't run into any other Aussies. I mean, there were more Australian accents in Borderlands 3.

Meanwhile, no one mentions that Chumbucket is the best marksman in the history of the universe. As my character belittles Chum at the beginning of the game, I roll his buggy and fishtail and crash into boulders. He hails me as the driver-saint while I accidentally roll the vehicle off of a cliff and abandon him and his burning vehicle repeatedly.

I always throught it was a mix of stuff. extreme global warming leads to the inevitable world resources wars and then nukes. that would explain all the "mutants" and people with 12 diffrent cancers. I never understood how long ago the world ended. like 40/50 years? i mean max was part of the old world and i assume the alot of the older people like pink eye and gutgrash saw the end too. idk. overthinking it.

Don't forget the weird plague virus of people spitting out water and animals like cows, sheep and other more sustainable live stock dying to the point where they have to practically drive dogs and cats to extinction by eating them. The weird mix-mash of more believable elements causing the Wasteland just doesn't sit right with me. Nothing wrong with it, just feels off to not have oil wars then nuclear war instead of a more modern cacophony of catastrophe descend on people in a information age. But Mad Max never has a completely stable lore other than Max was a cop, poo poo was getting bad, his family got killed and he and the rest of the world went Mad. This is likely just par for the course as they never said how far the in the future it was. Crabtree fucked around with this message at 20:43 on Sep 4, 2015 |

Joe Gillian posted:Sure thing. If you do want to mess with filtering in game, you can still use the Capture Mode, and play the game in Video Mode with whichever filter you like. It also lets you change the fov which is neat. Too bad it's not in the menu. I suppose it messes with the game presets since it cause weird stuff in some situations like when you use the binoculars.

Does this game contain any Fury Road spoilers? I haven't watched it yet (the DVD is coming out in a couple of weeks) and I'd rather go into it not knowing anything about it beyond the numerous catchphrases that are all over the Internet already.

"15 some year overdue sequel with a new cast? Sounds like bullshit!" Then we get Fury Road. "Movie game based on an IP coming out the same year as a new movie.. sounds like TOTAL bullshit!" And now we get this. .... Mad Max is a franchise that has actually more luck than the title character.

There is a woman named Hope and Scrotus is a son of Immortan Joe that was never part of Fury Road. Other than saying the Citadel and Immortan Joe exist, this is basically a diverging legend that has almost nothing to do with Fury Road other than incorporate part of it's plots elements into the video game's separate story. Other than hopefully watching the movie before you read any character bios, you should be A-Okay to not be spoiled by the game as it is.
