I have a feeling that Death Stranding's either gonna be a real loving good videogame or a self-absorbed, pretentious wankfest that'll cause a lot of people to sympathize with Konami all of a sudden...

Holy poo poo, they're actually making a new, singleplayer Mechwarrior game.  Be still, my beating heart.

Captain Invictus posted:Randy pitchford is a terrifyingly bad businessperson. Was he always the boss, like, back in the Opposing Fronts days or even just the BIA ones? Only heard of him during Borderlands marketing.

This is just a friendly reminder that there are currently more people playing decades-old C&C games than there are playing Battleborn, released in TYOOL 2016.

haveblue posted:I don't know anything about its actual quality but it was released with bad timing by a company some people have held grudges against for years, so the gloating will never stop. Lol, I've only grown antipathetic towards Gearbox recently but I played the beta for BB and it loving sucked, bro.

PantsBandit posted:The monetization thing is probably real and a sign of how lovely valve is these days but I think the hype around it is a lame excuse. Hl3 would, at the very least, be a good game. If they made it and it didn't live up to expectations, whatever steam isn't going anywhere. It's just Gabe et al deciding they don't want to sully their reputation. Ironically I think it's much more pathetic to have the first two parts of a trilogy and then go "eh, it'd be too hard to make the third one live up to expectations, I give up."

In Training posted:Its like that from the very first level Yeah, difference being that I dig it. Do4m's level design never reaches the labyrinthine genius of the original games and its fanmade .WADs, being a series of monster arenas punctuated by platforming sequences, but those arenas and jumping puzzles and the shooting and the upgrade system are all so well designed that I never really got tired of it. The original games are effectively timeless though, especially with its community's perpetual output, but the new one was still real drat good, even though I might never play it again.

Man, thanks for reminding me how good Dead Space 1 & 2 were. It got less scary as you went on because of how powerful the weapons became, but man did it ever have good weapons. I know a lot of people swear by the plasma cutter but I was always a fan of the big boys: Line Gun and Contact Beam  What's more, I played them on my lovely laptop and they ran amazingly well. I think the second game was somehow more optimized than the first!

PantsBandit posted:Which leads into my other old man complaint: too much goddamn cgi. Cgi looking relatively realistic has led to a glut of over the top destruction. Jurassic park (the original) redefined special effects but it was confined to one trex attacking one group of people. It felt impressive but personal. I also probably sound like a gorehound, but most big budget blockbuster fight scenes don't really do it for me anymore (though the Cap Am movies have decent fisticuffs); I prefer the bloodbaths of John Wick or the real, sudden violence of Green Room.

bloodychill posted:If Squadron 42 was release and was a good game, I would not complain. I am doubtful however. It was supposed to come out in 2014 I think. Homie, have you considered just getting Freespace 2 and installing its approximately 1 billion mods?

Crosspost from another thread: Bumping this old-rear end thread because a big, new (final?) version of Mental Omega just came out.  MO is easily the biggest mod for RA2:YR and probably one of the biggest mods for any RTS. As of version 3.3 it boasts the following: quote:This release includes:  Each subfaction is unique and fully realized, both the singleplayer and cooperative campaigns are long and hard as balls, and the mod is fully integrated into CnCnet, meaning you can find a match without having to manually gently caress around with VPNs and the like.  So dig out those Yuri's Revenge CDs (or login to Origin or whatever) and get to Commanding and Conquering! http://www.moddb.com/mods/mental-omega/downloads/mental-omega-330 http://www.moddb.com/mods/mental-omega/downloads/soundtrack-for-mental-omega-33

FirstAidKite posted:Origin is okay but I prefer not having it open because I'd rather have everything running from 1 specific program instead of having to have multiple up and also I don't like that Origin freaks out and will disable the bottom right hand section of the screen from being clicked on until I close out of origin because for whatever reason origin will prevent you from clicking in the bottom right area due to its chat messaging system or something like that, I'm not sure of the specifics. They did give away ra2 a few months ago do maybe you have it.

FirstAidKite posted:Yup, just checked and turns out I have RA2 and its expansion. I can't remember, but RA2 might have some co-op levels and that mod certainly does. There might even be a seperate mod that makes the base campaigns co-op too.

Re: Movietalk, I saw Barton FInk yesterday and it was one helluva movie. John Goodman's one helluva actor.I really need to watch more Coen Bros. films, the only one's I've seen are that and The Big Lebowski. And The Ladykillers.

Bicyclops posted:I very much recommend Burn After Reading for an afternoon when you just want to laugh (J. K Simmons and Brad Pitt in particular are funny whenever they are on screen), Fargo for its general superbness, No Country for Old Men for a time when you can sit and think about it, Inside Llewyn Davis for a time when you want to hear some decent music or when you're frustrated about whatever your art is, and True Grit for a basically enjoyable Hollywood movie. Oh yeah, forgot I'd seen True Grit somehow. Love that movie for simply being a real solid Western. Well, I'm at my mom's place in rural PEI over Christmas with a Netflix box and not much to do so maybe I'll catch up on some filims.

I watched Arrival a couple weeks back and was absolutely blown away, so now I need to watch Villeneuve's other movies, but the trailer alone for Prisoners is just harrowing.

Jay Rust posted:Apparently their new engine (Lumberyard) is just an offshoot of their previous one (CryEngine)? If that's true, then it's not as funny as I'd want. Yeah, it is so it probably actually isn't a big shift.
