I want to believe this. Yeah sure, shark cards paid for all the DLC GTA online got, but:

$700USD real money to buy everything in one of the DLCs. Of course this'd be dumb as most of the vehicles were junk and that includes dumb poo poo like a $GTA 100k helmet with night vision goggles (that didn't work) for your character, but good lord.

Bonus: The average cost of a vehicle from each in-game manufacturer. Keep in mind that if you're not doing the big heist missions because you can't afford an apartment/bunker with the heist planning room or don't have a friend to host them for you, the average pay per mission is around $11k.

I really, really hope that Take-Two is sincere and they don't want to go down this road again. Of course if they did it'd probably mean something like Cactus Cards like Greenhorn, Cowpoke, Ranch Hand, and Rio Grande, which would be kinda funny if it wasn't so gross and predatory.

Hi everyone,

This guy was really happy that you guys linked to his site, but emailed me asking me to edit the post to reflect that the URL had changed.

If you try to click this link from way back in August, it might not work. PLEASE replace it with .org instead. Thanks.

Hello,

My name is Aron and I write for RDR2, a gaming site that has been linked to in this post in your forums:

forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3803629&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=256

Firstly can I say how happy I am that your readers thought our content worthy enough to include in their posts!

Secondly, we have changed domains from rdr2.com to rdr2.org and you will notice that the link in the forum post no longer works. So I was wondering if you could please edit the post to reflect our new domain, otherwise, your readers will get a "not found" error if they try to click it.

It is only the extension (.org) that is changing, everything else is the same, including the rest of the URL to the article. So you literally just need to replace the �.com� with �.org�.

Thank you in advance for this, we are a small website and truly appreciate a site like yours linking out to us. If you have any questions or issues whatsoever about this request, please let me know.

Kind regards,
Aron

They have been trying to do this for a very long time. It started with Americas Army. It was actually a pretty good FPS.

The new Hitman game seems cool. I can't say much about 2 in particular as I'm only playing the 2016 version that I recently got but imported into 2, whatever difference that makes.

The new Path of Exile league starts the 7th of December and I can't fuckin' wait. They revamped the oldest mechanic (masters) into something completely new, folded the last three leagues into the base game in a new and improved form, and added the actual new league mechanics on top of it which is like some kind of Shadow of Mordor nemesis system thing. Plus the usual balance changes, new skills, etc.

That's how you do a goddamn ARPG these days.

Naked Bear: Apr 15, 2007; Boners was recorded before a studio audience that was alive!

There is a Bomber Crew expansion with a shorter North Africa campaign for the USAAF, which means... B-17! :black101:

Unlike the Lancaster's wimpy four turret maximum, you can stuff up to seven gun stations in the B-17. It adds waist gunners, and the nose turret is replaced by two optional cheek guns. Also, no more of that shuffling back-and-forth for ammo bullshit; all positions come with the ammo feed installed.

Of course, you'll need all of those because, you know, gently caress you. Got shot to poo poo over the target? That's great... you'll get hit by waves of Komets on the way back.

Still really good.

Project Hospital.

edit: maybe I'll get the FarCry 5 DLC and try it again. I'm bored enough to probably play the game again and actually finish it.

The only purpose of games "journalism"is to collect money to post ad copy so IDK why you'd expect anything different with a release by one of the largest game companies

Like honestly just look at how relatively slow the games thread is for a brand new loving fallout game is for a better perspective on how doa this poo poo is.

Preach it.

Fallout 76 should've just been a standalone Fallout 4 expansion single player.

# ? Nov 15, 2018 22:53

Nostalgia4Dogges: Jun 18, 2004; Only emojis can express my pure, simple stupidity.

lol people are pretty pissed at the criticism fallout 76 is getting. Bro did you even play the game or are you just a bandwagoner!!!

This seems like good real input on it from the PS4 thread though

Doctor Zero posted:

It�s simultaneously not as bad as and also everything people are complaining about.

I�ve said this before and playing the released version of it yesterday did nothing to change my mind. If you just want more fallout to dick around in (the game is huge) and were okay with Fallout 4 this may be your jam. It�s kind of like playing 4 on survival mode with random people wearing odd costumes running through your game and waving.

If you are expecting the Next Big Fallout game, or post apocalyptic Destiny, or a completely not-Bethesda game, then you will probably be disappointed and should wait to see if it improves later.

I am having fun with it, but I definitely am just looking for more Fallout since I�ve already played 4 to death.

Mustang: Jun 18, 2006; “We don’t really know where this goes — and I’m not sure we really care.”

I zone out whenever a bunch of people screech about how bad a game is, they're way to emotionally invested for some strange reason.

I like survival games and think it looks fun personally. Not some groundbreaking game but definitely not something that's so bad it should be personally offensive to some people.

It�s not really a survival game though

Like it�s not really that much like Rust at all. The survival mechanics and PvP are barely a thing and base building is super limited
