Monster Hunter XX on the Switch is pretty drat fun. I can't read Japanese for poo poo but I've been stumbling around with my son and managed to make it to the 2 star quests and upgrade some of my armor. I don't know if it will get an english language port because Capcom probably thinks it'll take sales from Monster Hunter World but it's everything good about the 3DS games without the lovely portable console controls.

I really want to play MechCommander Gold but ironically that Microsoft published game isn't compatible with Windows 10 Pro/Surface devices.
MechCommander Omni does work on Surface devices after some work, Omni doesn't capture the same overwhelming feel as MechCommander 1 though.

Seems like clans aren't completely worthless unlike 1. Another couple GIPers are in it, I believe. Anyways, let's slowly take it over as people leave to join the clans their goon friend is in etc. We're at 99 right now. Message me on PSN, PM me, post here....

Ah Good old error 0xc0000022, I missed seeing you buddy.
MCX.EXE - The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000022). Click OK to close the application.
Followed the Reddit instructions for Mechcommander 1, mounted iso, copied folders down, compatibity mode(s) with admin rights.


Going to try the Darkest Hour MechCommander Gold supermod, suspect I'll encounter the same 0xc0000022 issue as before.
Even MechCommander Omni presents a weird-rear end popup about the MCO executable cockblocking itself in full screen mode.
Another application is preventing use of full screen mode ;
C:\games\MechCommanderOmnitech\MCORel.exe


Something on Surface Pro devices just seems to hate old microsoft code.
That's why I asked what hardware you were running.

Just solved my old-rear end microsoft games don't work problem.
Directplay wasn't enabled on my machine, technet.com (microsoft enterprise support site) was massively unhelpful as to how get directplay installed and/or working.
Answers.microsoft.com had the solution, I only have myself to blame for my retarded reliance on technet.com

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/games_windows_10/directplay-on-windows-10/d34f924c-63e6-48b9-919e-00f680713b19?auth=1
Ignore the useless microsoft tech support guy quoting technet documentation, someone had the solution on 3rd page of thread.

quote:

DirectPlay is available under Windows 10 features. If you Open Control Panel, and click on Programs and Features, and select Turn Windows features on or off.
If you scroll down the list to Legacy Components, you can click the check box for DirectPlay.
Checking this box, enables the installation of DirectPlay on demand, which means as needed.
So, this will enable you to install it if a game or some other program requires it.

Enabled directplay and MechCommander Gold works, Darkest Hours super mod works.
Booosh.

Is Destiny cross platform play or are you stuck with the playerbase on whatever you bought it for (xboxen/PSs/PC/Mac ahaha)?

I don't think Sony is going to let any cross platform play happen.

Yeah Sony literally has no incentive to enable it

If the roles were swapped and Xbox had the market cornered it'd be reversed

The PS4 does crossplay with PC on FFXIV, war thunders, rocket league, and maybe some othe F2P

Yeah, I chalk it up to thrill of using a Surface device.
Some things are disabled day 0 on Surface devices because Surface devices ship with Microsoft's baseline Windows 10 security settings.

You could say that I enjoy the computer games in the Battletech genre, excluding Mechwarrior Online.
I refuse to play Mechwarrior Online just like I refuse to read George RR Martin books/watch game of thrones.

I have physical copies of Mechwarrior 1, the crescent hawk games, Mechwarrior 2 + all 3 expansions, Mechwarrior 3 + it's expansion, MechCommander Gold and MechCommander 2.
Mechwarrior 1 + the entire Mechwarrior 2 series have been configured to run in DosBox off a usb stick. I even owned the Xbox Mech Assault games + tolerated the lovely voice acting.
Mechwarrior Living Legends is fun to mess around with just for the combined arms vehicles + aircraft.

MW4:Mercs + Mechwarrior 4 didn't click with me. I owned all the boxed copies when they came out, tried them & gave them away.
2 months ago I retried the mektek MW4:Mercs bundle and something about the graphics, the lovely voicework, and the enemy AI that beelines just for you actively repulse me.

Hard pass. The developers of Mechwarrior Online are involved,
I wouldn't trust them to NOT gently caress up a coffee order, and come back with radish smoothies for everyone.
Mechwarrior 2's multiplayer component, Netmech, came out in 1995-1996. Netmech apparently still has more game modes, and server options than Mechwarrior Online offers with "premium" time.

Waiting to see how the new battletech "battletech" turns out. Ended up bored/hating Shadowrun returns & just couldn't give a gently caress in shadwrun dragonfall.
Combat in those two games just was not fun or engaging.
