Wasting 30 bucks on that, when it was on sale a few months back, was a good way to know I never wanted to spend 60 on BF1 since it's essentially the same.

Game was absolutely gorgeous, but no hardcore and some other weird rear end design/gameplay decisions just made it a resounding wet fart of a game to me.

I'll go back to playing Battlefield 4 like a chump now.

The biggest problems I had with the game was not being able to squad up with friends and joining servers and being placed on opposing teams.

Hoping the next one fixes those problems and the couch co-op is implemented well. I played the gently caress out of the original games and would like to have a Star Wars game that's current gen and fun to play.

That last execution, gently caress yeah. I need to just waste an evening cloaking and running up on dudes so I can unlock some more.

Oh yeah, joining that Marvin faction asap

Yeah I know a lot of my gripes were related to that as well. We had to host our own matches to play with friends. And even if you hosted your own stuff, your ability to make gameplay selections were very limited.

Also, the whole "earning credits to purchase weapons and abilities" v unlocking them was kind of irritating as well. I know BF1 does this with war bonds to an extent. Ugh.

FFXIV is doing a free 96 hour login campaign until May 7th.

They also changed the two week trial for new players. I think it's hours or max level of 30 or something

it's a fun MMO, it is pretty anime tho

I still don't get why they're pushing live fire maps so much, what the gently caress is the point of titanfall without titans :rolleyes:

e] they're not gonna ever add that are they :(

Have some good memories of playing Starcraft 1. That said, games last way too long and are stressful as gently caress.

Yeah there's basically no point in playing competitive modes in RTS games unless you can dedicate like 3 hours a night to it. Starcraft had a ton of fun gimmick maps, though. I liked the RPG ones where you level your little dude.

I think at one point all I played was the custom maps. Some of them were actually pretty well done. I remember there was a Starship Troopers one where you just fended off hoards of zerg, was really fun

The arena style ones where you pick a group and do limited battles against each other are cool

Starship troopers was my favorite one as well. Real time sink though, that map could go on several hours. There was another one like that but resident evil that I also liked

Frontier Defense without a defense objective?

Seems like it’ll be about as harsh with enemy waves, includes resupply lockers and deployable unlocks; maybe the Engineer class equipment will finally get used?

Confusingly, there is data such as “money earned for a player Pilot/Titan Kill”

I only played it a couple of times, but I enjoyed the version the AF used for lieutenant PME, where they reskinned everything into different airplanes. :)

there was this old turnbased game, Strike COmmander II which was really cool

it had like every plane post WWII and you just zoomed around and bombed sites and did engagements and stuff. I wish there were more games like that

like I wish there was just an air version of harpoon, or hell I might be willing to try harpoon again but I don't think it's easy to come by or maybe its just expensive, I haven't looked in awhile

edit: It wasn't strike commander II that never existed, I'm mixing up titles, off to mobygames to try and remember it

edit2: Flight Commander II

I play the poo poo out of Command Modern Air Naval Operations but I am a giant nerd and have played wargames for decades. It's really just a big sandbox where you can have scenarios setup with different modern OOBs. Don't expect anything in the way of a narrative or anything.

I've been wanting to play that game for ages, but I feel like it's going to be Crusader Kings 2/EU all over again, where I boot it up every six months or so and just give up due to the complexity :(
