Is there a reason that i shouldn't be this excited Elite: Dangerous is coming to PS4 this year? It sounds loving awesome. It seems like everything no man's sky was supposed to be combined with just about all the stuff i heard star citizen is supposed to have with the added benefit of being an actual game. I do have the sinking feeling it might be the first "ps4pro recommended/required" game.

I have to agree with others here and recommend For Honor. If you liked bloodborne the combat is pretty similar from what I've played, maybe a little more forgiving, and when it clicks it's pretty drat satisfying to square off with someone.

UnfortunateSexFart posted:Uh oh, the goon heroes at Giant Bomb love For Honor - despite being absolutely terrible at the game. That's awesome though, if you can love a game while being awful at it, that means the game may contain the theoretical "fun" particle e Which For Honor totally does, in my opinion. I'm still waffling about actually buying it, but having an epic sword fight and then kicking my opponent off a wall at the last second when im at dot health is pretty satisfying

UnfortunateSexFart posted:Oh yeah, definitely a good thing. Although it's not normally the type of game that people will like if they aren't very good at one on one battles. Like you can't help out significantly in other ways like you can in say battlefield 1. There seemed to be a couple group buff abilities, but i got decapitated so quickly most of the time or used the first available ability so i rarely got to use them. Definitely nothing that could compete with the time i spent turning my team into a never ending stream of immortal soldiers as a medic or making helicopters invincible as an engineer in bf.

Ghost Recon is basically as cool as i thought it would be, which is exciting. I've only played a little bit though, because it wouldn't connect at first and my PS4 hard locked when I tried to close the game. Less exciting

veni veni veni posted:That mind control ability in SOM was the most OP poo poo I've ever seen. Yeah but it was a single player game, you vs an army of orcs, and by the end combat was more about orcemon management than actually challenging the player. I like all the OP stuff in open world games like SOM; i cant wait to shadow strike my way through a couple regiments of uruks. I put an absolutely impractical number of hours into the first one, they have my axe. Er, money.

Jack-Off Lantern posted:So them designing a menu that takes you out of the action instead of a snappy quick one makes it good? Okay. Radial menu snapping to super slow-mo seems to be the new standard, and I'll definitely take it over the AC inventory screens that take forever to load and make my PS4 sound like a pod racer. At least they made the camera stick the selector instead of the move stick like ghost recon, THAT radial menu got me killed a lot. Also, you get a handy warning about robots charging--their icon changes from a red dot with an exclamation mark to a super excited exclamation mark (that maybe flashes? I can't remember), letting you know its time to spam roll. edit: not to say you won't get crushed instantly with little recourse by a thunderjaw doing a tail spin, but the ease of dying in HZD just means that you priorities should be distance from your enemy, THEN dealing damage Inspector Hound fucked around with this message at 16:25 on Mar 23, 2017 |

Snak posted:Has anyone else's share button recently gotten way laggier than usual? It used to be I could hit the share button and within a second to, save my video or take a screenshot. But now I have to wait like literally 10-30 seconds to be able to do either. Some I it never lets me do it and I just have to go back to playing the game. I wouldn't be surprised if it' sjust my psPoor showing its age, but I was wondering if anyone else was having the same issue... Mines improved if anything but yes I know exactly what you're talking about. It seems to get a little better on subsequent attempts, so maybe try holding share and letting it all load once right at the start of a round/play session would help? I've literally been intending to do this and then forgetting to do it until I encounter the same problem you're having for like a year.

Smol posted:I finished Uncharted 1 and been playing some Uncharted 2. While the sequel is definitely much improved, I still think there is too much combat. No idea how 3 & 4 hold up yet, but hopefully they learned some pacing lessons from The Last of Us. There are a few good set pieces in 4, nothing like the seemingly endless waves in what I remember of the first one. I kind of wanted more gun fights by the end. The straps look pretty bouncing around

man nurse posted:Well I bought Horizon Zero Dawn and I'm not seeing why it's getting all the goon love. It seems very average so far, but I've seen many call this their GOTY and all that. Am I missing something? Does it just get better as it goes? Keep going, and make sure you figure out how the different weapon effects gently caress up robots in different ways as this makes combat go more smoothly (it seemed arbitrarily difficult to me at first). Do the collect-a-thon quests and side quests too, they aren't as tedious as you'd think and they are rewarding in terms of game item stuff as well as filling out the story. I felt like your actions (attacking robot factories, etc) have a noticeable effect in the world. I also really dug the graphics and the fact that it genuinely tried to tie the world together in a comprehensible narrative; a lot of open world games that are universally hailed as excellent kind of don't make sense if you look at the way the story interacts with the world, and it feels more like it does here. Also the main character is female and it isn't exploitative, which is notable in a sad way.

rabidsquid posted:i got it for $25 on black friday, and assuming you still enjoy batman style combat you'll probably enjoy it. i get wrapped up in tracking down and fighting orc captains and dont pass much time on the actual story. i havent gotten far enough to see the loot box poo poo everyone is mad about but i hear it still sucks, but thats also like end game or post game content i think. The loot box stuff isn't that bad, you can buy the "poo poo tier" boxes with the in-game currency that flows like water, and they don't seem that lovely I'm choosing to look at it as a way to summon up new orcs when I don't want to just roll around brain washing captains myself. Can't do it all the time since you're limited by your supply of mordor bucks, but it's not entirely useless if you don't want to pump actual money into the game (I don't and have not).

Nostalgia4Dogges posted:Ok so what’s the appeal of BB for $13 I feel like I should just buy it but I’ve never played a souls game and I don’t get the obsession besides “hard but satisfying.” Like are you just endlessly running around fighting bosses The map is crazy fun to figure out, and kind of amazing to sit back and contemplate once you've opened up a good portion if it. The story and setting work really, really well. The combat is fun once you get the hang of it, but it seems punishing for the first stretch. It's worth $13. Avoid spoilers.

Probably play Black Flag first, then go back for Freedom Cry later/if you want more pirating.

Norns posted:A lot of you that love souls/borne stuff should give Monster Hunter World a try. We open. An appeal to broad appeal--Norns appears to be endeavoring to let the fans of a widely loved gaming franchise know that a new game contains elements similar to their perennial GOTY. New games are often the subject of well warranted skepticism; one cannot truly know how a game feels, what it is like to put our minds, our, and I hope you'll forgive me, souls, into that world, until the money has been spent. A comparison to a trusted source of escape, one that one already knows scratches those indescribable itches, can help communicate that incommunicable feeling if what it might be like to move through this new, unknown world. quote:Combat isn't identical or anything. A hedge! He has herewith narrowed his comparison to the aforementioned beloved franchise. Combat is certainly one of the aspects of the Souls franchise and Bloodborne that is most often remarked upon. To find which aspects of the games are being compared, we must read more deeply into what Norns is telling us. Norns continues: quote:But it definitely has similarities that work insanely good with what equates to constantly fighting giant loving boss monsters. And then wearing them Ah, the grandeur of those foes, battled infrequently and having on average greater strength and stamina than preceeding opposition, often colloquially referred to as "bosses," and trophies taken thereof. While in Bloodborne a player doesn't have the ability to take trophies from enemies per se, in-game lore indicates several of the weapons and even costume items belonged previously to the beasts and kin you're slaughtering in your night of phantasmic terror or even to the elder terrors ultimately responsible for the whole affair, and the enemies you encounter are on more than occasion would easily qualify as what one might describe as "giant loving boss monsters." Norns is specifically disqualifying the combat--excepting, perhaps, the anime-as-gently caress weaponry--from his comparison. He sees likenesses instead in the size and scale of the boss fights, and in the tangible connections between those bosses and the weaponry and items used to hunt them--a hunt in which the player has no possible hope of succeeding, a hunt against all odds. Posters of the PlayStation4 thread of the Games subforum of these immortal, glorious dead gay forums, Norns comes to you to help you feed that primal urge, the one we all have, to look up, no, farther up, no, those are its nipples, farther, up, up, into the blazing eyes of an impossible enemy, to grip the ridiculously impractical sword-hammer-axe-cannon in our giant, stupid-looking riding glove, and perfectly time holding R2 until right before he lands that first hit. Don't close your hearts to him, open YouTube and recall the enormity of some of the cohort you faced in Bloodborne, and those you might face now in Monster Hunter. "Giant loving boss monsters." Cleric Beast, Paarl, Amelia, that big idiotic looking balloon head sucker finger thing you fight in the church--all giant. All boss monsters. All loving. Thank you.

Wolfsheim posted:I've never played a Far Cry game before, but I keep being tempted when I see 5 go on sale because zipping around in a wingsuit and shooting rednecks and hunting with a cougar buddy sounds really fun. I would definitely play 4 and maybe even 3 before 5. Fc5 is good, but it kind of pales next to 4 for a lot of reasons (the guns were cooler, the setting was prettier and more interesting, all of it was set up more believably). I thought Primal was good too, but i wouldn't recommend doing it first since far cry is more fun with guns.

BF4 for 8.99 and Titanfall 2 for 5.99 right now in the store, both premium editions or whatever with all the add ons. I'm sure the player base for both is mostly grizzled veterans with perfect aim and eyes in the backs of their heads at this point, but those games are still worth way more than that.
