Cream-of-Plenty posted:poo poo, fifteen years, there's 30 years between Thunderdome and Fury Road. Insane when you think about it. I'm actually shocked to see paid reviewers down on this game; everyone I know who actually has played it has said great things. Did they not grease enough wheels, or what? ED: gently caress Metacritic just reinforces that experience: PROS: 8 Positive, 8 Mixed FANS: 85 Positive, 6 Mixed, 4 Negative. ... there is something clearly off about this ratio.

It was originally with Mel Gibson and about to start then 9/11 happened. It killed flights so there were delays and it went to the wayside. It was about to start again and then Mel Gibson got arrested for a DUI, said some words to a cop, and his ex also released a phone convo. And here we are.

Honestly that 15 extra years probably turned out for the better. Hardy and Theron are awesome. Plus all the advances in computer editing let the practical effects compositing be .

Is there an idiots guide to applying that sweetfx filter to this? I pointed the ReshadeSetup tool at the mad max exe and it didnt auto detect, I don't wanna gently caress anything up but I've never used sweetfx before.

Decided to clear out a Top Dog camp to get some paint. First one I pick, I go ballsy and try a four-out-of-five camp that ends up giving me the Steel paint. Now my car is loving shiny and chrome. Motherfuckers are witnessing left and right from this point on.

It probably would have been a very different film with Gibson and an early 2000's release date. Cream-of-Plenty fucked around with this message at 22:52 on Sep 4, 2015 |

My one problem with this game is why the gently caress is my blackfinger too prissy to repair my car while it's mobile? Come on, Chum, some rando War Pup didn't have a problem doing it.

Fuuuuck me this game is pretty. Wish I had thought to record the resulting flips that fucker did, but I'm sure there'll be plenty more. Also the co-op camera is a genius idea and I can't wait to try it out.

I did a write up summary of the movie's evolution in the movie thread, but Miller was surprisingly mum on the topic of Furiosa. Considering how long he's had a complete script, it's amazing how much he kept under wraps: Blind Sally posted:MAD MAX: FURY ROAD

I love the car customization in this game. No matter what options you use, it's as gently caress. Half the fun of this game looking for towers to crash through to make a sweet screenshot and then making it look like a wallpaper.

Speaking of which, I have a ton of those Rockstar tabs--I wasn't kidding about buying a hundred pounds of the poo poo when they were on sale at Costco. I currently have a ziplock of 30 or 40 of them I can start posting on and off if people are interested in the hood ornament. If you end up winning the custom RZR 4x4 Rockstar is offering, you better give it to me though

You can just stop the car and get out once you have them harpooned, it stays connected and your car anchors them in place for stomping open.

PS4 touchpad stopped working during the game on both controllers. Swapped games and they worked fine. Still didn't work when I started Max again. Went to see Griffa (since I thought it was the closest thing that showed up on the minimap) and it worked again.

Can you adjust the field of view on this game? I can't stand lovely console ports with 55 degree FOV's, it makes me sick.

No clue what causes it or why that fixes it.

It's still a good idea park behind a wall or rock outcrop if you don't want to get hit in the face with flying debris constantly as you're walking toward the crate .

I also love the poo poo out of the developers for giving the DS4 native support and proper icons in this game. I want to write them a love letter. Having said that, is anyone else experiencing explosion sprites shrinking away into nothing? Missed an awesome helix fire trail because half of it dissolved.

Some of the upgrades break the game. Level 4 shotgun isn't just 4 barrels, it's 50% stronger too. It'll one shot through some armour. Twice in a row I was able to take down the heavy Dead Barrens convoys by just driving up to the lead vehicle, blasting off a tire to bring it to an instant halt, then getting out of my car. The one thing they REALLY need to fix is that when I do this, all the War Boys get out of their cars to fistfight me rather than trying to roadkill me. Seriously, I'm a one man death machine on foot. War Boys need to stay in their vehicles more. I could fix a lot of this by downgrading my gear, but... man it's had to turn off upgrades. Years of conditioning. I kinda wish the Max upgrades were less of a direct upgrade too, slower in the heavy jacket, shorter parry window in the heavy wrist armour etc. Small things, but I've had to dump 30-40 hours into the game in the last four days to find some minor complaints. Al Cu Ad Solte posted:I called for the car and Chum hit me with it! The fact they have specific dialogue for this tells me they noticed it, and didn't change it because it's fun.
