Anytime I need to see your face I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

For groups of riot gear guys I pretty much Stun Arm level 3 everyone or go with the usual strategy of flashbangs or smoke and CQC dunking.

You can eventually develop stun/smoke grenade guns and launchers, or use a non-lethal shotgun which will knock over riot gear guys.

so I loaded up portal 2 since it's a valve game: the right trackpad thing is really bad and p much unusable as a right stick, the left stick and face buttons feel way too close together, and the left trackpad/d-pad sucks as a d-pad

like i said, i turned off trackball mode, so it doesn't have momentum in scrolling which seems to help.

played some ray-man, also and it works well for that.

there's no possible way it could be any good with such a terrible interface

if NX is using the same architecture as the Wii U, and the Wii, and the loving Gamecube it's dead in the water

both because developers won't want to gently caress with it and because I'm pretty sure that's still 32-bit so say goodbye to the 8gb of RAM from the other consoles

there are newer 64-bit POWER cores that are still backward compatible with the PowerPC 750 or whatever the Wii U CPU is based on

lol @ the payday 2 thread already convincing themselves that literally paying money for objectively better guns is "not a big deal" and "only redditors care about it"

also acting like this is one small disagreeable addition rather than the culmination of years of selling pure upgraded gameplay in the form of monthly paid DLC packs

Extreme Metallica Archaea is pretty ridiculous to do legit.

I ended up just taking Quiet with an anti-material sniper rifle and let her dome the skulls over and over and over while I dodged rocks on top of the hangar.

not tht i found, but i might need to dig around a bit.

that said, valve just emailed me to give me the valve complete pack since it's not fully working on mac yet (even though i don't play much on my mac), and extended the return period to 60 days, so i'm gonna give it some time.

i think you can adjust the right touchpad so if you tap towards the edge it'll act like your pointing the stick in that direction rather than having to drag from the middle

some guy on steam forums told me "On the right stick STYLE OF INPUT setting, change it from Joystick Camera to Joystick Move." so i'll try that or something

if games use L3 as sprint its real fuckin annoying and you may have to bind one of the paddles on the back to that

i thought the point of the right touchpad was to use it more like a mouse/trackpad than a stick?

its real hard to describe how it functions but yeah you can do that with some games.

technically you can do it with any game by creating your own settings profile

except for the dumb stupid ones like metal gear that crap themselves if you try to use both mouse & keyboard and a controller simultaneously
