Title: Report games here!
Post by: Gabbe on 22 April 2010, 13:28:29
:O :O :O Post your best games ever played here :O :O :O



I will start with my report of the best graphical game ever

Code: [Select]
[img]http://www.clan-ci.net/Crysis_logo.jpg[/img] The most advanced graphics i have ever seen, using those stunning lightning effects that makes the game so realistic i almost sometimes get scared when a enemy pops up! (just like the adverts  ::) ) You really have to play this game to get a look at how this graphics plainly is super awesome, lately, people have been comparing crysis and ArmA 2 wich is a very photorealistic game. That is why i will be comparing them here, using the facts and not fanboy-activities.


Genre:    FPS (First Person Shooter/Fast Paced Shooter)
Platform: PC & Mac(!)
Style:     Futuristic
 
As you start the game you get a quick briefing, giving you a grasp of what the games about, then you immediately jump (literally) into the game
This gives the game a advantage over Armed Assault 2 because that game has no intro at all. You also immediately see the stunning graphics and get a REAL feeling of the game :)
As you proceed in the game things become more difficulty as they should, however, it is  hard to notice what your objective is because i got no explaination of where the tool for replaying the mission brifing was. Someone might argue that this just adds to the realism but...
The story is also amazing if you love FPS and SCI-FI.

This was a custom map, made with cryengine 2.

Crysis comes with a copy of the cryengine 2, find it on the disk!
Cryengine 2 was also the engine powerinjg FarCry 2, wich was a hit!

Here is what the next engine (cryengine3) wich you can actually use if you buy their game: crysis 2, this includes the engine! Look at this engine and cry in happines:

Feedback please, and yeah, report Glest here aswell  8)


I just got some ideas from the first two posters, what if you could rate a game 1-10?
Rate your game 1-10 /no fanboy plz  ;))
The best reports get to the be on the main page! :)
Tell people about what makes your game so special, make the readers want to play it



-Archmage- Report of the great game Savage 2!


Savage2 is awesome! IT'S FREE AND RUNS ON WINDOWS LINUX AND MAC!!!

Sword reflections, slimy skin, great effects, expert 3D art, and tons of fun!
You can play either a RTS role of commander or an FPS role of a little troop on the screen.
Again superb graphics, tons of fun, and graphics lag isn't a problem, network lag can be annoying, but it's usually very smooth. :thumbup:

I rate this game 9.8/10(a few annoying things like bad defaults in the options and other slightly annoying stuff...)!

Check it out at the Savage2 website! (http://www.savage2.com/en/main.php)

John D.H and his very informative report on many games, mainly Atlantica Online:

I've played a couple MMOs in my day.  I think the first one I tried was Martial Heroes, but I couldn't really get that into it.  It's basically like any generic MMO, and set in ancient China.

Then I played Eudemons Online for a while, which is kinda like a cross between Diablo and Pokemon (hard to imagine, but if you played it you'd get what I mean).  I got pretty frustrated with how the PvP system works, in that somebody one or two levels higher can kill you in one hit, made even worse by the fact that paying players had such a huge advantage that free gamers like me stood no chance in PvP and everywhere except the starting map and the insides of towns are freely open to PK (without warning, too, so you tend to get ambushed).  Plus, there's a serious lack of quests and the game is in perpetual beta.  Apparently development has been abandoned in favor of a newer project, which is really just the same game with a futuristic spin on it.  The only really fun part of this game was raising and training your pet monsters.

I tried Talisman Online for a little while, but I couldn't really get that into that one either.  One of my friends got me to play Runes of Magic with her a couple times, but once again it just didn't draw me in.

Code: [Select]
[url=http://atlantica.ndoorsgames.com/center/pds/pds.asp]Atlantica Online[/url] has been my only MMO for a couple years now, and I play off-and-on.  I like that there are a ton of quests, so it's not all that grind-heavy, and the cooperation is so much better than in the other games I've played.  There are always people wanting to form parties or inviting you to guilds, and playing with other people is always more fun than playing alone.  Additionally, the combat system is dramatically different (and better) than the other games, kind of Final Fantasy style.  Instead of managing one character, you manage a group of up to nine (you start with about four and then get more as time goes by), and you can swap them out for new and better ones as you gain levels and complete quests.  In this way, you can customize your group to extraordinary level (Want a group of nine spearmen?  Not a good idea, but you can sure do it if you want!).  The combat itself is turn-based but there's a 30-second time limit on each turn, so that keeps it moving fast.  There are also PvP tournaments several times a day, where you're matched against players of a similar skill level (based on win-loss record).  Paying players do have a pretty big advantage, but not enough to spoil the game, and you can beat players with higher levels and better equipment if you're good/lucky.  Also, the auto-move and teleportation features make travel so much easier, especially since the world is really quite big.  I've never tried running from Angkor Wat to Alcatraz, but I'm guessing it would most of an hour if you didn't teleport.  The market system is the best I've experienced, and is driven by supply and demand because you put your items up for sale and you only receive money if/when another player buys it.  The crafting system is quite nice, too.  Basically, Atlantica is the only online game I've played that got just about everything right.

Best game ever played, no question at all! Final Fantasy IX. Nothing came close to it in battle style, abilities, leveling up, insanely good storyline, etc; The graphics were great for its time and console (PS1). There's not much I can say without spoiling it, but I liked the friendly citizens in the game (such as one merry cook banging in nails with a frying pan after the destruction of his city), rather than the dull upset NPCs of earlier final fantasies. The dialogue is masterful, the storyline is the best ever written, ever.

Gameplay is flawless and the ATB battle system is fantastic, and improves so much.

The BEST game ever made is Hearts of Iron 2. No 3d graphics whatsoever, just good 'ol 2d sprites.

I was really looking forward to HOI3 but Paradox f****d it up by putting it on the Europa Universalis engine and putting in a stupid command structure thing.

Games I like(d) a lot:

Battle Isle: a long time ago an the amiga computer
DukeNukem 3d:  a long time ago too ! I never played any game so much ( about 4-5 years!). I made tons of maps and mods for this and we had several great LAN-Parties playing this game )
ut2004: Especially the ONS mode ( I still love to play the Onslaught ( ONS ) mode !)
glest ( of course  ;D)

( ... and I play Nexuiz from time to time too )

Most fun car racing games I played are Flatout2 and a long time ago TocaTouringcar 1 .

Here is my report of Runescape(!):


Code: [Select]
[img]http://www.runescape.com/img/main/home/bannerLogo.jpg[/img]
Recently, JaGeX added a new skill to free playing players wich allowed them to go and solve the puzzles of duengoneering! This new skill is fair to lower levels as it makes the bosses reduce hp and combat stats when the player duengoneers. The new area covers a area 60 times the area of the city ,in-game, called Falador(!) Here is some shots from it (

In this game, you really do not get done, after you have reached all the levels to the max, which probably would take 5 years, there is still plenty of quests (160+ more to come(!) ) Now it also comes with a demo version, but why is this necesarry? there is already free to play!

The game supporsts all OS that can run, even the ipod and iphone i think...

Here is my report of Runescape(!):
Nice choice gab! I'm an avid runescape player and have already been in the high scores for dungeoneering for quite a while. It's more of a minigame than a skill, but I love it all the same. :D

Also, I looked at the graphics for the first game that you posted (crysis) and I must say: wow! $30, huh? Maybe I'll buy? ;)
Title: Re: Report games here!

Omega, yah, RS ownage XD

And crysis, remember to visit this site:  http://crymod.com/portal.php (http://crymod.com/portal.php)
And get some mods, and use the very helpfull can-you-run-it tool, i belive you find it on nvidia pages.
And it has a sandbox-engine in it aswell..a game engine, and you can import blender files, just search youtube.

All of my friend find savage 2 incredible entertaining, since two of us love strategy games and the rest have a passion for FPS and WOW-like ones, makes it a perfect choice, thanks arch for posting that awesome game :)

You can`t be serious! RS is the most played free mmorpg of all time! guniss records, and the 5th top search on youtube is Runescape, and RS = Runescape. You arent serious when  you almost say that you haven`t played this game?!

I fixed it so you can vote for 2, is that ok? If you want to be able to vote for more, choose 'Edit poll' near the poll, then go to the box taht says How many votes per person. By default this is 1. Change it to the number of votes you want them to be allowed. I'm pretty sure 0 is unlimited votes, but can't verify...

Probably my favorite turn-based strategy, with the possible exception of Medieval Total War... but Wesnoth is definitely my favorite free turn-based strategy.  It's also cross-platform, so you can find it on their site (the logo is also a link) or on your favorite package manager on Linux.  The graphics are all 2D, but are drawn very well.

Good point. I loved half life 2 and both of the two episodes (when does the next come out? Episode 2 ended with a bang!). I love legend of zelda, but Twilight Princess was better in my (humble) opinion.

Battle of Wesnoth is good, though I can't play it ATM because of my computer troubles. The good news: I saved $900 last month and have another $700 this month, so I'll buy a real good laptop! :D

I've played a couple MMOs in my day.  I think the first one I tried was Martial Heroes, but I couldn't really get that into it.  It's basically like any generic MMO, and set in ancient China.

Then I played Eudemons Online for a while, which is kinda like a cross between Diablo and Pokemon (hard to imagine, but if you played it you'd get what I mean).  I got pretty frustrated with how the PvP system works, in that somebody one or two levels higher can kill you in one hit, made even worse by the fact that paying players had such a huge advantage that free gamers like me stood no chance in PvP and everywhere except the starting map and the insides of towns are freely open to PK (without warning, too, so you tend to get ambushed).  Plus, there's a serious lack of quests and the game is in perpetual beta.  Apparently development has been abandoned in favor of a newer project, which is really just the same game with a futuristic spin on it.  The only really fun part of this game was raising and training your pet monsters.

I tried Talisman Online for a little while, but I couldn't really get that into that one either.  One of my friends got me to play Runes of Magic with her a couple times, but once again it just didn't draw me in.

Code: [Select]
[url=http://atlantica.ndoorsgames.com/center/pds/pds.asp]Atlantica Online[/url] has been my only MMO for a couple years now, and I play off-and-on.  I like that there are a ton of quests, so it's not all that grind-heavy, and the cooperation is so much better than in the other games I've played.  There are always people wanting to form parties or inviting you to guilds, and playing with other people is always more fun than playing alone.  Additionally, the combat system is dramatically different (and better) than the other games, kind of Final Fantasy style.  Instead of managing one character, you manage a group of up to nine (you start with about four and then get more as time goes by), and you can swap them out for new and better ones as you gain levels and complete quests.  In this way, you can customize your group to extraordinary level (Want a group of nine spearmen?  Not a good idea, but you can sure do it if you want!).  The combat itself is turn-based but there's a 30-second time limit on each turn, so that keeps it moving fast.  There are also PvP tournaments several times a day, where you're matched against players of a similar skill level (based on win-loss record).  Paying players do have a pretty big advantage, but not enough to spoil the game, and you can beat players with higher levels and better equipment if you're good/lucky.  Also, the auto-move and teleportation features make travel so much easier, especially since the world is really quite big.  I've never tried running from Angkor Wat to Alcatraz, but I'm guessing it would most of an hour if you didn't teleport.  The market system is the best I've experienced, and is driven by supply and demand because you put your items up for sale and you only receive money if/when another player buys it.  The crafting system is quite nice, too.  Basically, Atlantica is the only online game I've played that got just about everything right.

That is sadly true. If there was a bigger multiplayer community it might be better, but the computer AI is very poor (especially when you compare to other games such as the diety difficulty of Civ4). Unfortunately, one must depend on external software (IRC client) to communicate with other players, and even then they must get the IP adress and stuff... Glest really needs a master server and/or built in IRC client to fix multiplayer, but that's not a discussion for here.

(http://exgn.files.wordpress.com/2007/08/assassins-creed-logo.jpg)

A Medieval RPG doesn`t get much better, the sotry, unimagineable touching, the graphics, unimagineable good for a story set in a medieval town. The feel of the gameplay is so, what can i say, real? it sometimes makes me scared, sometime happy and sometime im getting cruel as i play. The battle system is sometimes reapeating itself, but overall, it is good. When looked into, the game has a turn-based combat-system, but it is hard to see as something always happens!

Imagine this on a sized monitor? The resolution is so incredible (atleast on the pc) that it seems like it uses high-polygonal models for almost every character! The game is published by UbiSoft and is created by a multi-ethnical team with different religious backrounds.

Apparently development has been abandoned in favor of a newer project, which is really just the same game with a futuristic spin on it.
Seriously, if you look at the gameplay, it's exactly the same.  I don't think they even modified the engine, just added new game assets.

Estrategia is "strategy" in Spanish.  I spelled it wrong in my previous post.

Glest was the name I used to use for my zip files when I first started working in the game because of using opengl and being a strategy game (estrategia in spanish). Now it has no meaning at all, it is just a name we think that sounds good.

COD MW2 is indeed very good. However, avoid reseting everyone's votes. This is the last time I'll vote. :(

Remember that they CAN change their votes and CAN select multiple options, so reseting votes is unneeded and serves only to annoy. ("What the heck? I just voted in this half an hour ago! *Votes again, goes away for a bit* What the heck? I just voted in this 20 minutes ago!")

Virtual BattleSpace2!

It`s the game they use to train soldiers here up in norway (including physical traing aswell of course)

It lets you add almost any war scenario you wan`t, though it isn`t free, the regular editions are good, but don`t expect anything with huge graphic demands, like arma.

This is actually not a game, rather a simulator.

This is the teams, but i don`t know if you have your own language or uses english, if it is english i guess you could join under the UK/US team, on the forums i have seen canadians there.

There is however internal dispute between the portoguese and the brazilian within their clan :) they say that we are lucky XD

Nice stats Gabbe. I go by the name hofmic, and like you, only really go on members worlds (I don't have any f2p armor and dragon doesn't work in f2p).

You beat me in most things except agil and dung (44, not bad seeing I only played for a week after release, then quit for a while). I'm currently working on getting 70 defense...

I edited the poll to have a few prices of things I know, as well as once again ticked the box to let people change their vote.

I really just noticed something about your stats though. Aren't you a pure? I do recall an argument about pures vs balanced players with you a little while back (but since we all agree with me, I guess we could call it an agreement, not an argument :O). Gotta admit, I don't see many pures with 71 defense! :O ;)

BTW, on the topic of runescape, do you know a mod named "Kittyphantom"? He is probably the bestest runescape player ever lived!

Okay, now ima going to propose something for every member of the glest community, anyoen heard of Ikariam? free browser Strategy game, well, it kinda dsucks on graphics and stuff, but what if the whole of Glest Community created a clan? I`ve just started, well, i played a long time ago, but when you are gone for 1 week they delete your account. Anyways, if we were like a uber awesome clan in there, owning all and standing together, giving eachother resources and stuff, + it would`ve been advert for glest, but i propose it more for the fun gameplay it would`ve been, like if someone attacked me, then archmage and Omega and Catmystery and JDa and wyvern and Emscape and all the other guys sent a fleet to the guy attacking me and he would`ve been like "whaaa mommy!" and then we`ll be like "rawr! glest ftw!"

that sounds awesome and it would also make more people check and maybe even play glest and join. So we all can make like a glest clan and everyone in glest would be part of it and it would be like boooo yaaaa we rule..... lol

Runescape name: Glest Clan
Runescape pass:  PMed to you [arch]
Runescape e-mail:Glest-^-gmail.com {thats yours i assume}

Make friends with the trusted forum people and make them general in clan chat, sooo...

I'm afraid I'm too busy with a different clan to join that... (Anyone familiar with the RSHC?)

If we're going to mention our levels here, I guess its worth mentioning I reached 90 combat at last, as well as 70 defense to finally put all my combat skills (except pray and summ or course) at 70. I'd personally love to raise summ, but I'm totally out of blue charms, and my golds and greens are useless for training at my level... :(

@Cat, it is indeed possible to have multiple clans, though you can only be in one at a time. Just leave the clan and enter the next, and you're welcome to leave that and return to your old one at any time.

Anyone here join the Triumvirate? I was recruited by my friends into the Lords. :)

You can look up "hofmic" to see for yourself. Recently got my farm over 30 (currently 48, but should be my target of 49 by tonight), so I'm ranked in everything.

And yeah, members have massive advantages. Soul Wars, the abyssal whip, hunter, slayer, improved all skills, better dungeoneering xp if over level 90 combat, dragon equipment, uber awesome quests, bigger world, fairy rings, more monsters, summoning (mixed emotions there...), among others.

Poisoning's not bad too, but it's a double edged sword. Not only can we poison, but we can be poisoned! I rarely poison though, other than some bosses with a DDS special or perhaps the dragon spear (kp).

Do you ever come to F2P worlds? I only imagine people would do that to get some resources that they can't get, or items, monsters, etc.  :|
Well yeah, Runescape is boring until you get members! Really, F2P is only good until around level 50 or so, by which time you've finished dragon slayer and all the other quests, etc; Then it's time to become a member.

Now, going to F2P worlds is pointless. Everything in F2P is available in P2P and more! All F2P monsters still exist, all F2P items too (though they are vastly inferior to members items). Dragon armor IS too expensive for its stats, but it looks totally cool and speaks cash. However, dragon weapons are great until you get the 70 attack required to wield the mighty abbysal whip, one of the best items in the game, along with the Saradomin God Sword. For the most part, the God swords are overrated, being only good for Player VS Player combat. In monster combat, the whip is the best, though the Saradomin Godsword is great for slayer (a members skill where you are assigned monsters to kill, usually a large number. It could be something as easy as birds or something as brutal as steel dragons). Pre-70 attack, you should always use the best scimitar you can wield.

For armor, barrows is great for PVP, or for those who can honestly afford to train with it (easily possible when fighting good enemies, or if you don't mind paying to get those stats, such as to get fast charms from waterfiends). Bandos is great armor, but EXTREMELY expensive. 3rd Age is the most expensive in the game, but does boast impressive stats. Dragon is really not so bad for NON-DEGRADABLE (barrows armor degrades) armor, for those who are rich but not rich enough for Bandos.

Personally, Veracs is good barrows armor with its set effect, though Torags is also very good. Ahrims is great for magers, though I don't consider karils a huge deal.

For money making once you are a member, easy money can be made killing the green dragons in low level wilderness, though it's vastly inferior to training high level hunter or runecrafting. Both RC and Hunter can net you upwards of 1M/hr at level 99.

I'll think about it...
Yeah, Dragon Equips...looks cool, but somewhat overrated, unless for fighting other people, PVP.
I don't really like degradable equipment though...I mean you have to recharge it and such...  ::)
Anyways, thanks for the tips, I might see you around someday, if not, Arch will then...or not, I mean, tons of worlds...  ::)

Actually, dragon equipment is best for monster combat (if you can afford it). For PVP, that's what degradable equipment like barrows, ancient warriors, etc are usually used for.

I see. I don't know much, being F2P, all I know, is that there is corrupt everything...
but basically, rune is best...most people that are F2P try to get money to buy Saradomin, gold, trimmed, Guthix, or Zamarok rune... and that's about it. Not much else to do, but to get a membership. or stop...playing.

Not really... There is corrupt dragon, which is meant for F2P pvp, since it lasts a VERY short time, but has the stats of the dragon weapon it resembles, minus the special.

I'm working on Lost City, for a Dragon Longsword. :D :D :D

Need to get my crafting up though. :(
So you're a member now? gratz.

Other quests I recommend:
-Monkey madness, for dragon scimmy
-Priest in peril, to access morytania
-Ghosts Ahoy, for the ectophial
-Plague city series, for access to west ardogue, the elves forest, the underground pass, and more
-The Dorgushaan Goblins series, to access their capital city underground, as well as their agility course, a shortcut to the kalphite cave, and a totally cool cross bow capible of hitting up to 600 in optimal conditions.
-Roving Elves, for the Crystal bow and shield
-Temple at Seniesten (and its massive list of reqs) for ancient curses
-Desert Treasure, for ancient magiks
-Lunar diplomacy, for lunar magics
-Dream mentor, for more lunar magics
-Shilo village to access shilo
-Tai Bwo Wannai trio, to use the village to the max, as well as to use the altar there
-Fairy tale part2/3, to use the fairy rings, and eventually without needing the staff
-Garden of tranquility, for the funniest quest in the game
-Nature spirit to access the swamp in morytania
-Myreque series to access burg de rot's bank, the temple trecking/burge de rott Ramble minigame, Meirditch, and the paterdomus catacombs

Of course, those will take a long time, but are good quests to strive for eventually.

Other fun things to do:
-Play castle wars
-Play Pest control
-Play soul wars
-Play more castle wars

Farm snap dragons. Insane money if you get lucky with how many you get. Just pay close attention so it doesn't get diseased, and make sure to use super compost. The exact yield is random, but the super compost increases that. Another good herb to grow is torstol, which had skyrocketing prices since the introduction of the overload potion.

Best money? Hunter. At 99, it can be over 1m/hr. Of course, a really lucky time at GWD or Abyssal Demons is very good money too (imagine 3 whip drops in one day. That's 12m right off the bat!)

I know of no such mod. For now, if you still want to be able to change your vote, don't edit the poll. :P

How farming makes money:
Torstol Seed Market Price: 187.8k
Clean Torstol: 30.5k

Yield: 3-18

Loss at minimum yield: 96.3k
Profit at maximum yield: 361.2k
Minimum yield to break even: 7

So... super compost and hope for good yield. Usually nets you good money.

No member trains prayer by killing things for bones!!! :o :o :o

That would take forever! I am an advanced RS player and in track with what everyone does. The majority of players train prayer by buying Dragon Bones (they are the most available with good XP) and use them on a Gilded Altar with both burners lit for 3.5x XP.

D Bones were once 2k a piece, but ancient curses made D Bone prices soar, as there was actually a meaning to getting 99 prayer (other than the cool skillcape).

Have fun learning more about runescape now taht you are a member Arch!
Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: -Archmage- on 7 July 2010, 02:12:45
3.5 xp is less than you get for regular bones(4.5). :|

Just go the the place in the Wilderness where tons of bones spawn. :P
Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: Omega on 7 July 2010, 03:26:51
Oh my god dude, you are kidding me, right?!?!?!

3.5x xp = 3.5 times your normal experience. AKA: Dragon bones are normally 72 xp, so thats 72*3.5=252xp per bone. So a full inventory is 7056xp. At yanille, the closest bank to a PoH portal, thats pretty darn fast. In comparision, burying normal bones till 99 would take so long, that its no wonder that it hasn't been done!!

While that may be fine until lvl 40 or so, lvl 99 requires just over 13M xp...

I think it's so stupid that you can't use bots, they are so useful to keep you from damaging your arms(a lot of buttons to push and stuff), the problem is that people use them to continually train, I just wanna use em so I can sit there and watch it happen and not have to keep pushing the same buttons over and over again. They need some way to make sure the user is using a bot properly though, and not leaving it on overnight.

Yah, they should have it so if you use a bot, you have to enter your pin every half an hour, and Jagex would design the bots to shut down if the pin wasn't entered within 5 minutes of request. I'd like to be able to use a bot and read a book or do internet research at the same time, then I don't feel guilty playing instead of doing something productive. I stand in an area where I continuously get attacked by lower-leveled creatures, that is the fastest way for me to train. the problem is that I have to tell my character to eat some food, and bots can do that for you, and log you out if you run out of food, which is helpful because I hate dying. :P

Imagine it was a big big big box full of levers (thats still tecnolgy but more work that buttons) and the lever was really old and you dread having to pull it cause its all rusty and it gets stuck and you need like 2 people having to pull it. yeah that takes work not laziness!!!  >:( (ok i think im done with my ranting..)

You don't understand, clicking a mouse and walking 5 miles for water so you can survive have two whole different levels of importance. And within clicking itself there are levels of importance.
Your survival may depend on walking 5 miles for a bucket of water, clicking on another monster in runescape is not critical at all. I wouldn't enjoy walking 5 miles for a bucket of water, but I'd have to do it, I don't enjoy clicking, and I don't have to do that, clicking is trivial when it comes to clicking on monsters in games. I'm not saying I don't want to ever click, I'm just saying that I want to automate trivial repetitive things so that I can spare my wrists the stress and have more time to do productive stuff.

If you wanna try to tell me that optional automation of a totally trivial thing such as clicking on a monster in runescape, you might as well claim that modern guns are lazy, because instead of shooting and then having to reload we can shoot multiple times because we have the bullet automatically feed in, also allowing us to automatically spray tons of bullets at once. Reloading is pretty simple, pull the clip out, put a new one in pull the charge lever, and you're ready. You have to turn bots on and off, and fiddle with the options, of course you have to manually put bullets in each clip, but that's about as much work as resetting options on a bot. Modern guns aren't lazy they're efficient. Bots aren't lazy they're efficient for the user, so they don't wear their wrists out.

FYI: I'm not ranting here, I'm simply stating the truth.

my favorite is definitely Diablo 2 because 1 sucks compared to 2. 3 IS GONNA BE AWESOME. I rate diablo 2 a 8/10 because before they nerf batted all the classes it was INSANELY FUN. But now all the classes basically suck compared to their former glory and there are so many hacks that you can't even trade with people cuz they can steal ur crap. But in diablo 2's prime it was creative with the creatures, i mean come on killer cows with halberds that would 1 shot any low level guys (as in 30- depending on class) and a spider human blob thingy that could duplicate itself and shot death lasers and fire novas. And also unlike some VERY popular games (World of Warcraft's Death knight compared to basically everything) all the classes are pretty balanced and it doesn't stop there! The items were INSANE! But ya anyways 8/10

In the CC I spend most of my time in, we are very open and equal. We hate only two things, Merchers and Bots. All of us love messing up bots with famous things such as the cat trick, and for some of us, bots are the only thing we bother to report.

I don't bot, because the bots that are out there will get you banned and are designed for cheating, I just want a bot that will move at normal Human speed and click on some monsters for me, it's just that it's way too easy to use a bot for cheating, which is one of the obvious reasons why Jagex doesn't allow them, I agree with that, and I know that it's would be pretty much impossible to create a bot that couldn't be used to cheat, because what's to stop you from walking away and leaving it there? :look: I'd still be taking control of the mouse and checking stats and xp and stuff, I just want the bot at a normal or slow Human speed to click on monsters. I don't want to cheat at the game I just want to not have to click quite so much.

But it's not a problem for me anymore, because I've found an area where I can train on lower-leveled monsters that will automatically attack me, so I just sit there and click on a salmon every now and then.

Basically I'm agreeing with you that bots can be used for easy cheating, and I report people that I think are using bots. If you're sitting at a computer with a bot running, and you're watching it and checking stats and stuff, that's not really cheating, but if you're not at the computer and the bot is botting away that's serious cheating.

You don't need a bot to do that. You can do it yourself. Surely its not to hard? Perhaps you don't have the patient for MMORGPs. Jagex has stated their ideal audience is adults, and for a reason. Most of the guys I know, flame little kids for their impatient such as you pointed out. If you don't have the skill/patient/time/etc for playing runescape, its time for you to move on. We, for one, like the game without our bots.

I don't like repetitive things, ok, I never have. But as I said I've solved my problem for the most part.
yah that proves little kids are very unpatient except I am pretty good with patients and i pretty much have the skill and time (well more in the summer)..

There is a difference from kids, to teenagers, and young adults, to adults.
I think you and arch...fit to "teenagers"...  :|
Anyways, how would you rate runescape? I'd give 75/100. Members? more. F2P? Less. (rating) Just like how it is...in RS.

Tell me when you've found someone that likes repetition.

Stephanie, you told me yourself that you sell things at minimum price because you want the money as fast as possible, you even said you were unpatient........... :|

I've been playing RS since '04... so... 100/100. I started as F2P for some years, but Members is much better. Once you get to the point where you've finished dragon slayer, its time to upgrade to members. You will *not* regret it. I will never be able to return to F2P.

As for the end of runescape, like many corporations, I predict a long life. Imagine 60 years from now, when I'm retired, I could sit back and be playing RS boasting about how I have been playing for 60 years.... ;D

Grr... I will now clear this up once and for all (though I usually explain this at least once a week).

The GE's minimum price will not necessarily sell it for the minimum. Think of it as an auction, where the minimum price is the starting price, but where there is a price cap (the maximum price). If item A has a market price of 90-110gp, and you sell it at the minimum (90), but someone is trying to buy at max price (110), it will sell at 110. But if people are only buying at min price (90), the best offer there is is 90gp, thus that's what you'll get.

This applies to buying too, so offering the max price when buying will give you better chances of getting that item, abet, you will always spend all that money. If you have the time, you can try buying at the min price, if that doesn't buy, you can try the market price, then lastly, the max price. That is good only for when there is plenty of stock, and you want to save the money (or can't scrape up the money, such as to buy expensive items like the Whip).

I hope that is understandable.

I know that, but you're not very likely to get more money than you put it up for, the thing is, that you don't want to sell it at minimum price, and then have it sell at minimum price, but it really depends what the item is. If it's a really cool super expensive weapon(say....a godsword) then yah try to bring the price of that down if you can. But if you're selling yews or valuable money making things, then for your own sake, don't put yourself outta business. But of course their are other people who sell smartly and keep the price as high as they can, but you're playing against your self.

IF you haven't noticed Swamp Toads sell at max price really well, the price has just gone sky-high!

Title: Re: Report games here!

Yeah, for those who can`t see difference, just in case

Merchant = buy items to sell them later for higher prizes
Invest     = buy items to keep them for a long time and use them
Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: -Archmage- on 11 July 2010, 17:49:36
Gabbe............that's wrong........ :-\

Merchanting: Buying a lot of something to make the price go up and then selling, merchanting isn't good or bad to my knowledge, except that people don't like them throwing the prices all over the place. Investors can ride the price trends from Merchanters.
Investing: Riding the price trends, basically buying something when it's low and selling when it's high, investing is good for an economy.

Basically, Merchanting annoys people, Investing is good for the economy and doesn't throw prices off like merchanting does.

That's a main reason that I invest instead of merchant. ;)
Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: Gabbe on 11 July 2010, 17:54:21
no, thats a good description on merchanting, merch clans are the only ones with the power to raise the prizes, i don`t have anything against people who try to merch on their own, but when  they gather in big mass clans, then their dangerous. I might have a misunderstanding though, since we have the exact same word in Norwegian, and thats the description of what i earlier said. blurgh, i made 0 sense lolz.

Speaking of games, there are 2 other little discussed games (one I just previously mentioned) that are very good yet so ... quiet at the moment (though every now and then someone on RS breaks out talking about oblivion  ;)).

Those two games are the Half Life 2 series and the Elder Scrolls (Oblivion) series. Both excellent.

Speaking of them, does anyone know when to expect the Elder Scrolls V? I heard it may come out this year or next year!

Also, what about Half Life 2: Episode 3? I've been waiting forever and haven't heard any news...

Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: Omega on 29 July 2010, 18:11:50
I don't think the death of one of the voices would kill the game. After all, the biggest character with a voice is Alex (the hot girl), while the main character you control never speaks, though is directly referenced. After some googling, I found it should come out later this year at an expected price of 29.95 MRSP, and it is supposed to wrap up the episodes, as well as finally take us to the Borealis!!! :o :o :o

Relatedly, Portal2 is supposed to come out in 2011. Anyone ever played portal? It was a masterful game included with the orange box (which had all 3 half life 2's as well as team fortress as well) that conned the popular phrase "the cake is a lie" and I for one, cannot wait to see a sequal!

I think Crysis is about neck to neck with arma2 in photorealism.
What can the physics do in Arma2, I mean seriously, Crysis physics are almost flawless for me on max settings.
In my opinion Crysis has better particles, by far, I have my particle settings on minimum and they look better than Arma2's on maximum. :P

Post by: Gabbe on 31 July 2010, 16:53:19
Videos can`t judge the quality, I have both, warhead is maybe equal but regular crysis isn`t. Ofc physics are WAY better on arma 2, its a frikkin simulator man!!

there is a crysis mod that applies Arma to graphics to crysis, but used crysis lighting which is btw the best game lightning system in the solar system :P

omg why the hell isn`t more people interested in these fantastical games? Is it maybe..just maybe...because their compu can`t handle such graphics? just maybe...maybe a little...noob?

you should see the arma 2 map chernarus, it is HUUUUUGGGGGGGEEEEE

How could you get bored with Crysis, I play the levels over and over just to find all the nooks, crannys, and alternate routes. :P
Plus, modifying Crysis is a hell of a lot more fun than modifying Glest.

Here is my report of Runescape(!):


Code: [Select]
[img]http://www.runescape.com/img/main/home/bannerLogo.jpg[/img]
Recently, JaGeX added a new skill to free playing players wich allowed them to go and solve the puzzles of duengoneering! This new skill is fair to lower levels as it makes the bosses reduce hp and combat stats when the player duengoneers. The new area covers a area 60 times the area of the city ,in-game, called Falador(!) Here is some shots from it (Runescape.com (http://Runescape.com)):
Code: [Select]
[img]http://www.runescape.com/img/main/kbase/skills/dungeoneering/screenshots/dungeon_introduction.jpg[/img]Here is were you start off with dungeoneering!

A full list of the basic in dungeoneering can be found here: http://www.runescape.com/kbase/guid/dungeoneering_the_basics (http://www.runescape.com/kbase/guid/dungeoneering_the_basics)

In this game, you really do not get done, after you have reached all the levels to the max, which probably would take 5 years, there is still plenty of quests (160+ more to come(!) ) Now it also comes with a demo version, but why is this necesarry? there is already free to play!

The game supporsts all OS that can run, even the ipod and iphone i think...

Technically you can play just like you can play glest wow nexuiz final fantasy and about any other game that can run with a vnc in the background

Probably the best medieval game that have ever been released, with a huge amount of mods (1000+) you`ll never run out of fun, simulate battles with thousands of units, manage your kingdom, trade and everything. This game delivers a relaistic feel about how the medieval struggle was.

Well, I watched that first video about Arma2's realism, and I must say, IMPRESSIVE. While its hard to judge a 340p video, it does make me want to buy the game to witness it. Of course, much later, because I still have 2 games I bought that I haven't gotten around to playing yet, so I best hold off for now... :P

What would arma2 cost even (for the PC)?

Fortunately, you are incorrect. I have quite a good laptop. A 1GB HD ATI Graphics Card (ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650).

This put my Graphics as the highest thing in that windows indexing thingy (I know, its not the most accurate, though). I have played many games on the highest settings, though I only have so many games. The ones I've played on the highest settings include Oblivion, Bad Company 2, Dirt 2, and Nexuiz.

Damn, 6 months until I'm old enough to get a job....... Those ATI Radeon HD 6870's are real sexy graphics cards.......... ;D
For now I'll deal with my 4670, it can max out mw2 without lag at 1920*1200 with AA on full, and run Crysis Warhead at relatively high settings, over 1024*768, at like 40 fps normally. It can also max out Turok, res 1920*1200. To my calculations, my computer can outperform a PS3 by 2-3 times. :P

http://www.tech-forums.net/computer/topic/54464.htmlhttp://www.zdnet.com/blog/hardware/xbox-360-vs-ps3-which-has-the-best-graphics/178

PS3: 275,000,000 polygons per second
Xbox 360: 500,000,00 polygons per second
My computer: Unfortunately I don't know, and reading up says vertices per second is what a computer GPU does.

Now I'm all confused. I really don't get why everyone makes things so complicated, all I want is a performance thing with a graph for graphics cards and consoles and stuff so I can tell what the abilities of each system/card are. I do know that my graphics card has 1 GB of VRAM compared to the Xbox360/PS3 256MB, which allows me to have very high resolution textures all over the place. In Crysis Warhead I can put textures on max with no fps decrease. 8)

My computer is a dual-core, but that only matters if the game is CPU limited, it's fast enough for now, but I'd like to get some kind of job in 6 months and upgrade my computer a bunch :P.

I read somewhere that the Xbox 360 can do 500,000 polygons at 25 fps, or was that the PS3.......... can't remember........ Though with my computer I've gone up to 1,800,000 polygons at 35 fps. In the gaming world it's really hard to find someone that won't give you stats in Technobabble. :look:
Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: Gabbe on 11 November 2010, 14:59:52
Crysis got awesome coding and the game takes advantage of all cores in your processor even if it got 12 cores, it will automatically distribute eqal amount of code on all of the cores. The PS3 is more powerfull than Xbox, and there is no software on the consoles to count fps. Not weird tho, because if it were, all would buy computers and sony and MS dont want that, sony want money for the console and the games on it, MS want your subscription to WinLive and games for the xbox. I have had crysis maxed benchmark, recording and i got 49 FPS ;) Running 5970, clocked so that equals 2 5870s, meaning, my game ran at 8 5870 GPUs. Havent tried arma 2 tho, and i probably wont because i borrowed two 5970s from one of my friends, which has now moved :)

Ah brings back memories :D WHat i love about The Settlers is that you have to improve each economic cycle, aka, gold miners needs fish to eat for mining a lot of gold, then you need a fish hut, and for the fish hut to be made you need wood which can be aquired from a sawmill wich get wood from the woodcutters hut and then you need a woodsman to plant new trees, and then for you to take land for more wood you need soldiers, to get soldiers you need a barracks, and for the barracks to make soldiers you need weapons, that means iron, which can be aquired from the blacksmith/weaponsmith, which needs coal and iron ore, to get iron and coal you need bread and water, bread you get from a bakery, whichb get corn from a mill, which get corn from a farmer which needs water and space, again all over to the soldiers which needs barracks.

And that is just one cycle! you have also cycles for how to get settlers, how to do diplomacy and stuff and how to how to how to! The game is just so VERY huge demanding on micro management. BTW that was from IV i took that cycle, the other games have like other cycles.

My friend, those images are simply too BIG.

Please either use small thumbnails or a link. If posting lots of images, a link is recommended.

Image guidelines:
-Use of one or two large images is fine. After that, links for more images is recommended.
-The Spoiler Tag does NOT stop the image from loading!! You'll still make the person load large images. Please do NOT use the spoiler tag for that purpose. It can be used for a single large image to better format the post, but to conserve, please instead post links to the images.
-Please avoid posting images larger than 1024x768. If they must be large and absolutely cannot be resized, please post a thumb or a link.
-It's recommended to use a trusted site for hosting images. Imageshack (http://imageshack.us/) is a good one, as is Photobucket (http://photobucket.com/).
-Animated GIFs are NOT recommended to place multiple times. If it doesn't serve any real purpose by being animated, a still image will do. In fact, animated images should generally be limited to profile pictures and the smilies.
-Images are recommended in JPG or PNG. GIF can be used if you don't mind the bad color restrictions. JPG is optimal for most images because it can be compressed very well. PNG is recommended if alpha (transparency) is needed.
-Some sites allow you to create "photo albums", which are simply a set of images stored on one page. This is created by default when you upload multiple files to Imageshack (http://imageshack.us/), and is an effective way of showing off multiple images without cluttering up the board or having dozens of links the viewer must click. You could also use your own site to have a "gallery" of images in one location for those who purposely wish to view more images.

These aren't necessary rules, and COMMON SENSE must be used for posting. These have been copied onto the official forum rules.

Cheers. [Insert non existant beer smiley here, simply because nobody has still made the smiley, as per the request in general discussion. :().

For a link, just place the link to the image, as it is. For example, you would use the [img] tag surrounding an image to parse the link as an image. To make it a link, just leave it without the tag and it will automatically be recognized as a link (don't forget the http://!). Alternatively, you can use [url]http://linktosite.xxx[/url] (where http://linktosite.xxx is the actual URL). As well, it's possible to use [url=http://linktosite.xxx]Text to Display[/url].

That wouldn't work so hot. Spoilers simply change the CSS attributes of the spoiler div so it is hidden or visible. In order to be loaded after being displayed, it would require dynamic creation of the text, something that wouldn't work so well with the way the posts are stored.

i bought the game and dragged into th world of endless playing. it was hell amazing. honestly. i realy like the armed peasant units. my favourites. they cost pretty cheap. they are powerfull in numbers. they can whistand enemy sieges. they are brave. and they carry pitchforks to harvest the enemy with it. they can be recruited without any requirments or hard mintainance costs. dont underistmate militia or angry rebelling people! thats what gave those peasants my respect. cuz they fight for me without saying "we want shiny armours and enchanted swords and magic horses! yay" they carried their pitchforks and charged off the enemy armies. my last battle was a battle where militia and conscriptees were severly used (thats me alright using those fellows) i made my "sir arabian warlord's tacticless rush"  i used my archers to go and attack to kill some enemies and weaken enemy sentries at the walls. they made a low damage and got beaten. then. the 2nd wave of my followers (armed militia and spearmen and 53 laddermen) charged through with the enemy watching them attacking helplessly. the enemy start raining arrows at my guys and started the screaming of soldiers massing at the enemy walls they use their ballistae and threw their giant logs at my guys and lots and lots and lots of troops fly in the air from the impact and die. my soldiers swarm and enemy close their gats my ram is dead and my laddermen hurl the ladders over the walls and evrey boddy starts climbing up and therehundreds and hundreds of guys just fighting and killing around they were realy realy realy going at it and enemy knights and pikemen just pwning a swarming army fighting thhem. lots and lots and lots and lots of punching and stabbingand chopping and killing and shouting over the walls. then my men started hurling more ladders to enter the inner parts of the castle
(the first frontal wal was already swarmed with ladders) my remainig laddermen with ladders i ordered to start putting ladders over wall. and the laddermen with no ladders stared punching and kicking (they have no weapons)
and it was very hard micromanaging because of the computer having trouble (not lag. but it was'nt doing things right like my troops just standing around without fighting) and this was about an end for all and it got to a hard part of killing the last enemy keep hardly. the enemy king pwned them awfully bad. they finally kill him. and i won! yay me!

post opanians about if you like the stronghold series games.

if the stronghold legends is out i will certinly try it without a moment of hastation. i dont have a newsteller here so am gonna try and check over the sites any time possible (daily)

Dragon age: origins RAWR!! Okay thats fantasy :D but then, Mount&Blades, Horse and Fires, Mount&blades: Warband are all the best Medieval games out there, there are no competition, Mount and Blades have such a good feeling and realism + loadpack of mods to make more realistic, and remember forever replayability this game is the Best, hands down!

I liked stronghold for a while, but it has terrible cutscenes, a bad battle system on the ground, and lots of other things were ridiculous, frankly.  For example, the keep is immune to attack, the walls are like 10 feet tall, and the knights are just too powerful, yet they lack a charge capability.

A lot of your images don't work.

Really M&B is a simulated diplomacy game, you start out as however you choose to, but even if you chose to be noble, you still start the same way as everyone else. After you have gotten strong enough, you can pledge allegiance to one of the kings within the game and help them on campaigns to conquer the continent. Eventually, when you have a high enough reputation you can break from your allegiance and conquer a hostile town/city/castle and declare yourself a king/ruler. throughout the game there are also HUGE AMOUNT of quests to complete, the game also contains THOUSANDS of different weps and armours; crossbow to throwing dagger, bow and arrow to lance, sword to pike and so on, even hallberds, scimitars, daggers, and rocks. And dont forget the clubs, darts, and charged horses on move! You can choose to battle for yourself or chose computer to generate a battle without you there, the result is often way better with you in command as you can issue orders to your army to keep it as combat efficient as possible.

You don't need six threads about exactly the same thing.  They've been merged, and some posts have had BBC disabled since you can't seem to grasp the concept of not cluttering your numerous discussions with way too many giant images.  Good day.

To put this simply warlord, PLEASE do not use excessive large images, please don't clutter the board with too many offtopic posts that are pointless (as Zoy pointed out). It simply helps no one.

They use Blender to make and animate the models, and then render them as a 2D sprite.  This is how a lot of 2D games do it, since animating in 3D is so much easier, more modifiable, and more reproducible than doing it in 2D (where you have to draw each frame as a new sprite).

hi guys, i can't just sit here and play silent hill: comecoming whie bieng silent myself lol, i wanna talk about it, its epic, i wont use walkthroughs for this one, when i played PSP i used to play silent hill 5 as the best scary game and obscure too, dont forget resident evill 4 although i just stack up my PSP down my bedroom when this cool XboX elite came up, i like the wirless controllers but they seem to not stand up long to vibration which annoyes me, i played silent hill: homecoming in it, i am used to play scary games but this one just scared me off alot, its hell epic and dreadfull, although i have reached the hospital and am still stuck in it, am following this sicko kid running away, facing off with nurses and trying to bypass them with shutting off the ligt and bieng quite while marching, here an advice: if want to avoid enemys you can always bypass them, shut off all lights and shut the radio, the radio elps you locate enemies nearby, but if you dont want a fight shut it off and march very quietly, bypass them and be safe, there are obstacles i noticed they fall and make noisey sounds if you walk by them like a table or a trashcan so you must be precise, any noise will make them react because the react to sound and they are heavily attracted to light and unable to see in the dark with their weak ears and eyes , although i dont use this often, it hinders me from exploring the room but it keeps you at safety.

Minecraft!

Argueably the best Indie Game of all times! As boring as it might sound, if you try it then you will get addicted. I promise, it allows you to create whatevr you want! Though you might think that "meh the graphics suck!" I tell you this game is epic, also the terrain is generated automatically so you`ll never play on the same map as before, unless you save that map. And you must survive the nights, thats when the zombies come out! Then build walls and create swords and bows to hold stand until daylight reaches and burns away the zombies.

Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: Gabbe on 8 January 2011, 10:19:14
The old wildy! Haven`t you played the old wildy or when there were free trade? That means that when you killed someone in wilderness then you would gain all of their items except 1 if they used protect item, 3 if you were the attacker. Not as it is now, cuz when you kill someone with full sara then you would risk only getting a stupid bucket in return. Now you can get the full sara instead! Runescape had about 1/3 of their fan base to leave when they removed free trade & wildy. Free trade is that you can sell items for ANY price you want, that also means that scammers r gonna return. And that means i can stay in Varrock bank saying "Trimming full rune for free!" and have a retartet noob come give me his full rune and thinking hes gonna get it trimd. hurr hurr i cannot wait! And also selling a iron scimmi to someone. The process is simple, put up a rune scim, let them put up cash, quickly before they accept the trade, change the rune scim for a iron scim = $$$$$$$$ hur hurr! me is gonna roll world now hurr! MAN! I can`t wait, finally, this will make sure not everyone gain tons of cash too. And avoid the economical mess GE has been making.

SELLING ROCKHAMMER!!!! [harr harr dis is not gmaul harr harr]

No all caps spam please.



heheh, my lil nooblet friends. My account, as fickly weak as it is, can put both of those to shame! I consider myself mostly as a quester, and my massive quest points reflects that. By the way, it's worth mentioning that woodcutting is HORRIBLE money. Magics and yews are quite slow for the profit they give, and are inferior to hunter, runecrafting, and slayer, commonly accepted as the best skills for money making, along with combat (dragons for bones, GWD generals for hilts, slayer tasks for drops, etc).

You should've edited his post Omega, now my post doesn't make an ounce of sense. :P I don't really see the issue with a few big caps, I mean it's a big change to a famous game, and it's not like he took much space with those caps at all. :|
Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: Omega on 9 January 2011, 07:56:35
You should've edited his post Omega, now my post doesn't make an ounce of sense.
:P

For the record, it's not the quest that makes money, it's the continous act of maintaining the kingdom that makes money. It's not tons of money, but its a nice, guarenteed, steady amount that requires only 10 minutes of work a week. I can easily make at least 1m profit a week off it, depending on the seeds obtained from the nests.

I'll admit though, it will be nice to see the wilderness back, as a longtime player since 2004, I've always enjoyed the older aspects of the game. Abet, I don't like how all the quests that were in the wilderness will be relocated... Obviously they'd be far too difficult to do in old wilderness, but some, such as Summers End, are completely based on the wilderness concept! Likewise for While Guthix Sleep's Lucien's Fortress (on that discussion, WGS is the most epic quest ever). Because of that, I'm sorely mixed on the wilderness, but definitely want Free Trade back, and would prefer to have players drop the items they had in PvP, but only in the PvP worlds (aka: a mixture of old wilderness and new PvP elements).

hell. you people are very wierd with the capss. i dont see they make swears silently seriously whats with it?

ok i've added your name in my friend list. when your online i'll give you a post informing a meet. alongsides every glest member i will call.

skillers SUCK they just mine and farm. then they sell and then they min and smith and farm and they mine then they smith and they smith while they sell. crappy skillers wasting their times instead of venturing into great places like the wilderness and the far westwerd and the far eastwerd or southward to the great islands. lotsa places to explore. i embark on quests all the time. though this game SUCK atleast without a member account. because theres alo of quests in mem accounts. lol. i was thinking like this when i was a complete lvl 4 noob. i was eager to go to widy and explore. but LOL i marched like 10 seconds and i got killd by zombies. though now i am much harder to kill. i like going to large dark dangerous places. my current point is that volcano in karajma

Oh well I`ve been to almost all places in RS anyways :P but seriously, if you get atted during a quest in wildy, run away or tele away or fight the bastard. For high lvls this shouldn`t be a problem. Unless ur taken by a suprise of a clan were half the players are ancient a holes.

Warlord, i suggest powerlevling until your abt 80~ combat. Thats when you can have real fun with the game & explore and stuff.

If you are a skiller it is respect, most skillers usually have a high lvl main anyways, but if you are a skiller that means that you`ve earnt your money through peacefull skills only, and that is pretty hard. noo, the game doesn`t "suck" without mems, but certainly, when you have fully explored the free area its either time to quit or to move into the realm of real players :P

About miscellania, given that im not a no lifer 24/7 on RS, that is a solid way of having a income without needing to play hours of hours.

And yay! I`VE just rounded 25 million milestone :D

say what would happen if theres a chuck norris in this game?

though skillers are WEAK level 3 is something much of an abomnation and embarassment and dishonor.

i wanna stay this level. 33 years old is better then a f***ing old 60 yrs granfather. those skillers are mostly 3 years old (i take levels as an age lol)

say whats your favourite runescape soundtrack? mine is: yesteryear, fanfare, dwarf thame

whats in hour of an hour? seriously an hour is an houur theres no more hours after or in that. you peoples. are very wierd :o

Harr harr, come to duel arena and let us settle this fight ;) I`d say i could probably take you out without any armour mage range or wep. Then let us see if a 98 yr old is stronger than you 33 year old :P

I dont remember though, but you, let us meet. Though, im not member anymore, i cancelled the sub a little while ago, but that doesnt mean i can take you in duel arena! i do like the bandos theme very much. you`ve probably never heard it >.<

Moving the topic back to RuneScape for a bit, it looks like the wilderness will return, as the poll closed yesterday with 91% wanting the wilderness back and only 7% saying no (the 2% extra is those who don't care either way). An official statement will be released on Monday the 17th.

Here is my report of Runescape(!):


(http://www.runescape.com/img/main/home/bannerLogo.jpg)

Recently, JaGeX added a new skill to free playing players wich allowed them to go and solve the puzzles of duengoneering! This new skill is fair to lower levels as it makes the bosses reduce hp and combat stats when the player duengoneers. The new area covers a area 60 times the area of the city ,in-game, called Falador(!) Here is some shots from it (Runescape.com (http://Runescape.com)):
(http://www.runescape.com/img/main/kbase/skills/dungeoneering/screenshots/dungeon_introduction.jpg)Here is were you start off with dungeoneering!

A full list of the basic in dungeoneering can be found here: http://www.runescape.com/kbase/guid/dungeoneering_the_basics (http://www.runescape.com/kbase/guid/dungeoneering_the_basics)

In this game, you really do not get done, after you have reached all the levels to the max, which probably would take 5 years, there is still plenty of quests (160+ more to come(!) ) Now it also comes with a demo version, but why is this necesarry? there is already free to play!

The game supporsts all OS that can run, even the ipod and iphone i think...

Download java here:  http://java.com/en/ (http://java.com/en/)
Play Runescape here:http://www.runescape.com/game.ws?j=1 (http://www.runescape.com/game.ws?j=1)



I won`t let this count as a apply for the mian page, because i am the owner :) i simply did it because i wanted to

I have to admit, I was a huge fan of runescape for the longest time, I was a paying member for while as well. but I fell out of it.

Although not my most favouritist game evrar, I do have to say Super Columbine Massacre RPG was the most interesting.

But the most awesomest game I ever played was Desert Bus.  Check it out!

Post by: the warlord of the reich on 25 January 2011, 12:27:46
not worth it totally not worth it. totally dude seriously this game isnt fun theres like thousands of stuff could go better then this so why is it your best?

i got another game to tell you guys about.

you ever got so intrested in pacific and world war 2? you will say battlestations midway. battlestations pacific. because they've got one of the best graphic and effects ever. AA fire. battleships destroyers and fighters. bombers. but the game is too short (battlestations midway is only 10 levels to play and some other operations) and they are both not very strategy or unit-controlling nor they are not economical. yeah? theres not a economical and pacific warring game. theres none dude! actually dude theres. its called pacific storm! this game is awesomest world war 2 game i ever playd. wanna know why? because its both reall time managment and commanding the empire and is also a battlefield and troop command. the game lets your camera go free (meaning you can go around the battlefield watching dogfights, kamikaze, ships engaging in battles, aircraft bombings, torpedo runs, explosions and much more!) meanwhile. you can click one of your units (a A6M zero for example) you can click the U in your keyboard. you know what happens when you do that? YOU CONTROLL THE UNIT YOURSELF!!!! you drive it and fire the guns. kamikaze and bomb targeted areas. shoot enemy planes. turn fights and much more!!! you can also do it on the ships!!! click U in your keyboard while a ship is selected. you will controll the ship's AA guns and fire them. although usually inffective. it becomes deadly to enemy aircraft if in close range enough to predict an arc and angle and ballestics of fire towards it. ennemy bombers are most velunarble to it. because their lack of speed they go stay under heavy AA fire for long time they might get shot in it. also level bobing. rockets pearl harbor carrier and ship command and fighter dogfights. heavy bombers battleships even scout planess based on catapults!!! you can command ships. give orders and order the captains to go tactical (passive tactics, long range bombardment, etc) and you can also do kamikaze!!! (which is unrealisticlly uselss in this game due to the stuupid computer pilots that when ordered to kamikaze they only go on carriers and fly their planes at the current speed without accallaerating and also due to the stupid computer that goes to low alttitueds once kamikazing.) although you can kamikaze always fails. try to do it less or only use it with fast aircraft like randy. A6M zero. etc and also yo can equip your planes with whatever you want. bombs. torpedos. 250 IB 60 IB even 1000 IB bombs. you know what else? the game is economical!!! battlestations midway goes tottally downhill once you finish the campaign. same for battlestations pacific. but this pacific storm. you can do simulated or costum battles. lay island sieges (land troops, command fleets etc) meanwhile playing great campaigns like in pearl harbor (a great level i like to playit with japan because you get tons o aircraft and boombers to blow enemy ships with) and also this game is aweesom. you can go to the mapp where you can see the whole pacific !!!!! command fleets to attack enemy. produce weapons and shiips in your factories. build economical buildings and drill islands for oil. build iron mines and make a grand factory for weapons and aircraft and fleets. then declare war on your enemies and launch massive attacks. conquer USA with japan. capture strategic locations like new york, san diego. washington. etc or conquer japan with USA and capture strategic locations such as tokyo, their capital. or something else. but this game isnt totally made of gold; theres downsides (flak shells are 99% useless. AA machineguns aare redecioulosly close range, kamikaze is near useless.) but the game's downsides are few. the game is totally worth alot of money i say.. you can use a fighter to play in dogfights meanwhile go out and layback on your chai and watch fleets, aircrafts, bombers, submarines going to the fray. lay siege on islands oor go out drop torpedos on enemies. commence massive battleships like yamato into battles. yamato is a seriious beast. it was in the past. i once used its massive main guns and sank a destroyer in one barrage :o :o :o and a massive number of AA on it. i once got a record while using one of yamato's AA and killed 6 airccraft passing my me after they dropped their payloads. you can also send out scoutplanes like those based on catapults. carrying speciell ammunation. use those scous to locate and destroy enemy's submarines. also about yamato. it is vry fast. and massivee AA means you will pay dearly for evrey thing you send to attack it. neearly not a single bomber survives from it. either few fighters get lucky and fly over the AA on it. you can also mannuever it to avoid the torpedos and bombs. also go destroy enemy ships. run away from battles. destroy enemy convoys. you can also fly the famous zero-sen "zekes" fighters. i got a record for it. in a turn fight i kkilled 6 hellcats and a single TBF bomber in a single fly by although the TBF was'nt in the flyby i did managed to kill it while it is inside its formation (its pretty dangerous to attack bomber formmations with zeros due to the enemy tailgunners will fire on you) i also once got another record of shooing 3 B-17 bombers with 4 zeros. we got their tails but lost onne zero... then used dive tactics that always brought doom to flying fortresses. the bombers got killed. also dont forget to try out those awesom tony fighters. they can really swing around. the game definatlly favours japan because you get the best fighters and battleships. meanwhile. in USA you get nothing but good anti-air destroyers and good bombers (in armor) but with japan. i think evrey player of the game likes the japanes due to the easyness of their fighters use..... they can fly around. jump. climb. and do anything an acrobat would.  so thats why those japanese fighters can stay good for you even when you go late in the war.

cheers fellows :)

Honestly Though, my favorite game I've played would have to be the whole Jedi Outcast series, they were good quality games, at least for there time. Plus they also have a pretty big modding community as well.  

It was mostly an FPS, but the gameplay was really fun.

P.S. Desert Bus was a joke.... it's this gag game that they call a verisimulator, or a game that's stupifyingly like reality, basically, you are a bus driver that's driving from tuscony to arizona, you pick up a few passengers in the game, but all your doing is just that driving to arizona,, driving through endless desert.  It take you four hours to get there, and when you finally reach there, you get 1 point, then you can decide to either end the game or go back again.

No, this isn`t cinematic, this is GAMEPLAY, yes you heard me right, these awesome graphics are gonna be your for the taking, REAL TIME!

Crysis 2 is ahead in development, and look at crytek site, the ps3 version is going to be equal to highest performing PC version. All the PC version is getting better would be the resolution.

Wereas DICE actually has one version of the game engine for consoles(!!!) and one designed to utilize the new DX11 features to the max for PC. Clearly you must see that here DICE wins 8)

In fact I probably won't buy BF3 now. To be honest, Killzone 3 looks about 3 times better. :look:

Edit: I played the Arma 2 operation arrowhead demo maxed out, and to be perfectly honest I didn't like it, the gameplay was over-complicated(couldn't keep track of the controls), and the graphics were pretty bad...

I`d put my guess you never going to buy it anyways, but i will be playing both and can tell you wich is better ;)

ArmA2:OA is not a game, its a military simulator, and it is actually extremely good doing its job, the graphics maxed out, with mods*, and max render distance, dude we are talking KILOMETRES OF THE MAP that has to be rendered. Simply no competition there.

Dude what the hell? Seriously, have a close look at the video, or look here IGN showing you..:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqZ-XWXak3M

If you know FIFA and EA sports games in general they have a INCREDIBLE ADVANCED ANIMATION SYSTEM, And since DICE is a internal EA studio, they get all the technology from all of EAs games. Animation is actually one of the things BF3 is going to be vastly superior to any other games. The only thing i feel is wrong with BF3 in this alpha stage is reloading and aiming.

Also the campaign will be Co-Op (hint hint please buy arch plzz) You can see in the previous video, wrong part of time i think it was called. :)
Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: -Archmage- on 7 March 2011, 04:43:56
Animation System: That's nice, but really Crytek beat them to it. :P Notice the reload animation, enh, not so good. Sprinting looks pretty good, but not as good as COD:MW2 or Crysis 2. :| BF3's first-person cutscenes are pretty good, but MW2 and Crysis 2 are still tops. Having a nice animation system doesn't automatically give BF3 A+. Same with Crysis 1. Shall we talk about Assassin's Creed? :P

Destructible Environments: BF3 pulls ahead, they really focus a lot on this. Crysis 2 has limited destructible environments, not quite as good as this.

Lighting: BF3 lighting looks really good, and feels almost real, but the CryEngine still sits on top for being more than real.

1-Crysis 2
2-MW3
3-BF3
4-Assassin's Creed Botherhood
5-Team Fortress 2

So I'll probably get it. :P

It is by the way unknown if a MW3 is on the way, the site saying that they were going to make MW3 is denied by activision, and the site says it was a joke + activision sues the makers of the site. Most people now think that is because activision wants to drag away publicity from the other companies now releasing major titles.

BTW; You know if Crysis 2 is going to have nVidia 3d technology? Hopes, atleast nVidia sponsors them, so there is hope! :D

BF3's first-person cutscenes are pretty good, but MW2 and Crysis 2 are still tops.

Lemme tell you, there was almost no cinematics in there, gameplay only :) The soldier that got shot by a sniper? Real-Time rendered, no pre-made animation. The animation when the soldier opened the door? Say hello to FIFA animation system ;) This will feature also in multiplayer.

In BF3, when a teammate (among the 64!!) players damaged, you as a medic will be able to drag him into safety and safely heal him up with bandage and stuff without getting shot at, something no game i have seen has done yet. You will be able to mount your gun to almost any part of the terrain, this means that you will be proning down and actually mount your two-foot sniper to the ground before shooting, increasing accuracy.

INFINITY WARD ADMITS MODERN WARFARE 3 IS LESS ADVANCED THAN BATTLEFIELD 3!

http://www.cinemablend.com/games/Infinity-Ward-Admits-Modern-Warfare-3-Less-Technical-Than-Battlefield-3-30432.html (http://www.cinemablend.com/games/Infinity-Ward-Admits-Modern-Warfare-3-Less-Technical-Than-Battlefield-3-30432.html)

he admits that building a new engine for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 would be "counter productive", after he was asked about MW3 using any new tech after the internet nearly exploded from the Battlefield 3 gameplay footage.


 I guess innovation finding its way into the biggest selling franchise in the world of interactive entertainment would just be financially blasphemous for Activision, eh?

MORE EDIT:

and for the demo of crysis 2 was like CTRL + C, CTRL + V STRAIGHT from the console version (Press START to begin , aim assist, adjust TV settings for brightness settings to name a few ..) PLUS it is mentioned that the full game is released in DX9, then get a DX11 patch later after launch (http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=29330).

Quote
The eagerly-anticipated game will ship with an underlying DX9 API on March 25, with the DX11 patch coming a while later, and it'll run just fine on a quality laptop.

Stop bullshitting us CryTek..

I mean, Crytek is dumbing the game down for it to fit on a Xbox 360. We are talking a computer from 2005..While DICe actually makes one version for PC and one version for Consoles! And atleast they put the effort to create DX11 at first and not patching it in because the engine doesn`t yet support it. Also, Crysis 2 is in DEMO stage. BF3 is in pre-Alpha stage, and still they look equal, so i think DICE will steamroll Crysis 2, straight forward, just looking here and remember, pre-alpha:

says quite a huge lot about how the BF series have been THE BEST for a LONG LONG time, i mean, the IW 4 engine can`t handle such great maps, and ok it can`t handle such maps, but WTF there only 18 players MAXIMUM? BF2 from 05' can handle 211 Players And still maintain these beautifull graphics:

Have you guys seen a new game called oil rush (http://www.oilrush-game.com/).  Apparently they are accepting pre-orders and it seems that 90% of the initial pre-orders were from GNU/Linux gamers.

OilRush is a real-time strategy game based on group control. It offers mechanics of a classical RTS combined with a Tower Wars genre: control the upgrade of production platforms as well as their defence forces, and send battle groups of naval and air units to capture enemy platforms and oil rigs.

Looks cool, though i don`t like unrealistic settings such as oil platform countries it is a good idea around TD.

Its nice to see an RTS that focuses on naval warfare. In lots of games navy are usually added on and underdeveloped compared to ground units. I almost want to make a navy only mod for GAE! Graphics look great! I wish Glest could look like this one day :P

This isn't a game but a game engine.  I know titi started development on jGlest with JMonkeyEngine and they have released their alpha 3 engine which includes an awesome SDK.  Check it out with the video below.

Crysis 2 is coming soon, unfortunately for crytek/Electronic arts the full version of the game have already been released. Very unfortunately that because that would imply that pirates get games faster than those actually paying for them.

Late reply: Relatedly, Glest could use one of many free open source engines for things like water. In particular, OGRE is free and open source, under the MIT license (which is GPL compatible and quite simple and open). Mind you, OGRE would add a fair size to an executable, but the ability to render the desired MD5 models as well as support for DDS textures would save the developers work of implimenting that, and more importantly (to me) we could get some realistic looking water (that's Glest's weakest point really) as well as improve the shadows. OGRE is amazingly powerful, and very fun to tinker around with.

I would recommend you all take a look at some of its examples and tutorials to see just how powerful and easy to use it is! Of course, Glest itself is its own engine, and it may be undesirable to use 2 different graphical engines, but the effects could be amazing.

I've heard of ogre 3d before and in fact jMonkeyEngine is able to import the OGRE 3d file format.  Do you happen to know what are the advantages of using ogre over jME?  Looks like they are both scene graph based rendering engines.  jME is java, ogre is c++ right?

So I just finished a two-day game jam with some of the other folks over at OpenGameArt.org.  Have a look at what we've made. :)

The game is called Last Escape, and it is currently available for Linux and Windows, and should compile just fine on whatever platform you like.  It's a 2D run-and-jump platform game where you shoot bugs and collect their energy.

http://opengameart.org/content/last-escape-reddit-game-jam-entry (http://opengameart.org/content/last-escape-reddit-game-jam-entry)

(http://opengameart.org/sites/default/files/archive/lastescape-lab_0.jpg)(http://opengameart.org/sites/default/files/archive/lastescape-sewer.jpg)

(I mostly just made maps and maintained the tileset, as I'm not much of a 2D artist.)

Quote from: BartK
This is a COMPILE ONLY version.  If you can't compile it yourself, please wait for the binaries, which we'll post here ASAP. :)

http://opengameart.org/sites/default/files/archive/lastescape.zip

Last Escape is HARDCORE.  Don't expect it to be easy.  There are five levels total, and if you're going to get through them, you have to play carefully and kill enemies to collect their drops, 10 of which give you an extra life.  Please let us know what you think!

UPDATE:  Windows files are here (with binary)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2325979/LastEscape.zip

Just download, unzip, and run. :)

I know, right? Square Enix has frustrated me in recent years. Up until final fantasy 10, things were great (with 9 being my favorite), but then it was just a quick slide down hill. 11 and 14 weren't even real final fantasies, 12 had a lackluster storyline, and despite the interesting battle system, it did not really feel much like a Final Fantasy in story, and 13... the story was so linear it was like walking down a straight hallway for most of the game, and even when you start getting some choices, it is too little and too late, plus a terrible battle system that was just spamming the same button over and over.

And for Chrono Resurrection, it was a terrible move to squash it, seeing the game was non-profit and was just free advertising for Square Enix, continuing a beloved series that Square Enix would not.

Yes, Square Enix has disappointed me.

@John.d.h Thats exactely what DICE is doing new! Acitivision is milking the CoD series as hard as possible, Crytek is promising stuff and not keeping a single, also abandoning their PC fanbase and jumping on the X360. WHat DICE is doing is developing one engine for all platforms! They are using just about 100% of the PS3, and the X360 is being pushed as hard as possible. And I am still shocked that Bach said the rig to max BF3 is yet to be built! They are taking such a huge leap forward in terms of graphics, and from previous experiences, BF series have always delivered amazing gameplay. Teamwork based and not omglolZ0r quickscaip pwnead like CoD is, and Crysis is turning to be.

WHat a horrid comparison to make between BF3 and AC2B, two completely different games, i mean, a 3rd person RPG vs FPS? srsly?
Even so, there are many comparable aspects.

Characters & Storyline: AC2+B obviously dominates
Graphics: ACB has large scapes of buildings, and literally unbelievable animation. As well as pretty sharp shadows.
             BF has obviously superior graphics in many ways, but AC2+B have a few areas where they excel(animation definitely).

I bought AC2 because I played it at my friends house, and I love it. After I beat it, I could only hold about a week before I bought brotherhood(trying not to buy video games all the time). I have never wanted to buy BF games, and my friend said he didn't like BC2 when I asked his opinion. (The wobbly gun is a huge turn-off) :P
Current Game priorities for this year:
Assassin's Creed 4 - Revelations: Getting it ASAP!
Call of Duty 8: Modern Warfare 3: I will definitely be getting it, because MW2 was a scream. Multiplayer had some issues but still a good game.
Battlefield 3: I dislike the crappy first person animations(hands and stuff) that the BF series has always had. As well as how the guns act and stuff. I will probably buy it though.

I've been working on some pretty fancy crysis particle effects, especially water effects and stuff. When/if I show them off, I'll mention Glest somehow. 8) By the way these effects will be a bit better than the famous Xtreme Particle mod series by Xigmatek(both in performance and quality!). Not to brag too much but all he does it use low quality materials and mass amounts of particles. ;D

MW2 sucked hard, just admit it, all the reviews says so, and it most certainly doesn't help to know that half of IW got fired.
AC2:revelations will use the same engine, no improvement, however that engine still tops the category, but archmage, you will have to wait for the PC version of this you know, i'll never buy something that not just dumbs the PC version down, but manages to do that horrible mistake to delay its release date, pirate ASAP for my part.

Anyways, this is why you can't compare FPS to 3PS, AC2:Brotherhood doesn't have first person animations, so you can't blame either one for lacking animations, as they have a ton of different animations. AC:B wouldn't benefit from the ANT system of BF3, and BF3 would certainly take a huge hit if they imported ACA system from AC series. Well, AC:B would benefit from it because it is the to date, best animation system. AC:B has inferior graphics, simple as that. BF3 lightning, texture, animations are all superior to AC:B, but then again AC:B isn't trying to aim for the same goal as BF3 is trying, AC:B is trying to make animations that jumps around on stuff seamlessly, wich it is doing a hell of a good job in doing, no other games in the top notch are even trying to do this.
BF3 is also trying to make seamless animation, but they do not blend in with the environment like AC:B system is trying to do, however, they have a heck of a better clothing and physics simulation, also adding actual weight into the animations. You can see the guns of the soldiers actually having some impact on movement, AC:B lacks this, the swords are not as heavy as they should be and often while they collide with clothing and other objects they just fly right through. That does not mean either have a better animation system, it just means they are aiming at something different the both of them.

BC2 is not a BF game, even Bach said so himself, Battlefield is Battlfield, Bad Company is Bad Company, DICE said BC was just a spinoff from the real battlefield to experiment with the new consoles and experimenting with destruction, just like Heroes was to experiment with customization, and not graphics.

Frostbite 2 is also built from the ground up, graphics engine, completely re-coded, same goes for animation physics and API/CPU support. BF3 technology is in other words superior to anything right now, and that my friend is not fanboyism, if Crysis 2 for example had lived up to the huge expectations, I would say it was the best engine, however truth is this is not the case.

MW2: Had a great campaign, one of the best ever in a first-person shooter. Also, I'm pretty sure they didn't get fired for making MW2. :P

The engine used in the AC games is fine, it has good everything, though I wish they would make improvements and stuff. Actually AC3:B had much better shadows than AC2...

AC:B doesn't have any first-person animations, but BF has third-person animations. AC:B doesn't bother very much with weapon weight and stuff, but BF3 way overdoes it, guns do not weight that much. When you look at the scene of them running through an alley, you notice the gun in the FP animation is barely moving, but the gun in the third person animation is moving quite a bit more realistically. With FP animations BF is embarrassing itself, loosing to CoD. BF3 FP animations look so fake, MW2 had very lively and real feeling animations. The technology does not make the game good or bad dude. The BF series is one that says look we have this technology, then makes a crappy campaign, and a crappy FP experience. BF seems to keep the same musical theme over and over, it's a good theme, but the ways they change it are horrible.

BC2 is a Battlefield game, it's a spinoff, but it shares the title dude, experiment or not. In fact, AC1 was just a huge experiment by Ubisoft that turned into a major title. :P

@About your pics: Screen settings brightness, contrast, etc can change a game entire look. MW3 could definitely use a contrast boost. :| I made Crysis look far more lively and realistic simply by messing with the contrast, brightness, and gamma.

CoD:MW2 and Crysis 2 are both games I bought, and enjoyed a lot. Even though Crysis 2 was an undershot of what was expected in the tech zone, it had great animations, a spectacular soundtrack and awesome overall look. CoD:MW2 didn't have nearly as good graphics as Crysis 2, but they were still good, and with the quality animations, soundtrack, and storyline, it was a very good and enjoyable game.

Compare MW2 to MW1, and MW2 was shit, MW1 campaign was immerse and included yourself in it. MW2 campaign was interesting and urged to more play, but it was so damn linear and felt so fake compared to MW1, like Activision tried to hold on to something that is finished and done, and belive me, we will see another milking attempt by activision called MW4 after this MW3 crap has been released. MW2 camapaign was short and linear, though it urged more interrest because i thought IW would do something more interesting like in MW1, they never did, everything just came out just as expected.

Battlefield 3rd person animations are the top notch nowadays, no contest. I agree it's first person animations look horrid, but remembering pre-alpha I can live with that. Battlefield music is beast, and best and will remain so! :P

BC2 is not a true battlefield game, in the exact same manner as Heroes is not a battlefield game, they are testruns to see if something works. I must say though, Bad Company 2: Vietnam expansion was a huge ton better than the piece of mappack called CoD:BO. Just as with 2142, Vietnam balances the core game. 2142 balanced out everything in BF2. SUch as 1942 balanced with 1942: Vietnam.

And since when was not cehicles mentioned? Vehicles are a must in next-gen games, alogn with destruction and large maps, none wich CoD fullfills. Well, that does not count theyr frickin scripted shit, every tiny bit of destruction in CoD is scripted ffs!

About my pics; don't push the facts away, BF3 has large advatages when it comes to texture quality, lightning polycount etc. everything that can be seen from a screenshot. Another truth is that MW3 is using the same engine as MW2, thus not improving graphics by a single inch.

Another thing is that BF series is played by mature players, CoD is played by immature 12 year olds screaming in the mic with a such a huge pitch its a pain in the A**(ear). BF requires teamwork to win, and tactical choosing of classes, tactical deployment and tactical weapon usage. For example if your teams commander have spotted a amount of enemy tanks rolling into one of your bases, then you choose AT class and not the sniper. In CoD, noone dies for objectives, everyone camps like bushwookies behind some indestructible wall and hoping to get that 25OMGnukZ00R killstreak. Even in domination, noone jumps onto bases, noone dies for objectives and vice chat is used primarily for ranting one enemy or even sometimes friendly soldiers. The CoD communtiy is immature kids running around playing "The cool game".

Crysis 2 was a Xbox360 port, pulling out every little bit of power in the console, still a port and ran shit on PC, in comparison with Crysis 1/warhead ofc. The story was cool and all, but linear and used up, the music was beast and a massive masterpiece. MW2 was better though.

Wake Island: (http://www.geezergaming.com/main/media/kunena/attachments/83/WakeIsland%20-%20Back%20To%20Karkland%20-%20BF3.jpg)

Now this is a playable map, not like the tiny squeeze maps in Crysis 2 and certainly not the one room run gun painspazzkillerz0r from CoD. Crysis 1 had such large MP maps, the i mean, both SP and MP maps were frigggin HUGE. Did i even mention playerocunt?

Define "good campaign". I have only found really one FPS with a single player mode that was truly worth the money for the game, and that is Bioshock's. Granted, it had no multiplayer, and that improved the game for me. Tis not all about listening to 12 year olds show how much profanity they know.

Call of Duty 3, MW, MW2, Black Ops, Bioshock, Bioshock 2, Battlefield 2, Halflife 2 (and all episodes), James Bond Quantum of Solice, James Bond Goldeneye, Halo 3, Nexuiz, Cube 2: Sauerbraten.

I'm really more of an RPG fan to be honest. In retrospective, that last statement wasn't entirely accurate. Halflife 2 (and its episodes), as well as the James Bonds, also had good single players. Otherwise, a game you can beat in a day is no fun. Other games like the Final Fantasies, Fables, Dragon Age, Elder Scrolls, Civilization, etc, have a nice tendancy to net you well over 40 hours of gameplay, many even exceeding 100 (or have replayability value that lets you replay them over and over).

You're unbelievable Omega....you like RPGs but you haven't played Assassin's Creed 1, 2, or 3. For your information AC1 is about Altair in the Crusades. AC2 and AC3:Brotherhood are about Ezio Auditore in the Renaissance, and AC4:Revelations will be about Ezio in his 50's. Assassin's Creed is literally the best RPG game EVER created. Last I checked AC2 is only 30 bucks on Steam. Brotherhood is like 50 though. :)

There's no need to talk to me like a child... I'm older than you, mate. I understand it perfectly fine, but the extreme shortness is a huge letdown, whether or not it's well written. It's like short stories, they can be great, but they are just too short to give the same impact a full story would (not to say I don't still have Steven King's "The Mist" still in my head, though I suppose that kind of borders on the edge of the definition of "short").

Also, I recall Brotherhood being $30 (CAD) at Walmart here once.

Just checking, I know a few people who don't really get it. :P For a FPS MW2's campaign was actually a bit long. Though Farcry 2 has like a 50 hour campaign(5 times as long as MW2), and it's more rpg-like, running around doing missions and crap.

It is true what Omega says, MW2 campaign was short & linear, that also applies to Crysis 2 imo. And for the record, I can't wait for BF3 to release their horrible singleplayer campaign, DICE were never really good at making SP, but their MP was the bomb best.

Guns don't shake enough in fp view, RLY????  That's all nit picky stuff... I really hate big name games, all struggling to be the most "realistic".  Am i really one of the last of a dying breed who wants my video games to feel like video games?? I miss my polygons and pixels, over the top physics, simple story, and simple gameplay. The only FPS I ever liked is UT Classic and UT2004, UT3 is another "try to hard to be realistic" game i cant stand. Ill stick to Glest, Minecraft, and Cladun. :P

Have you ever tried ArmA or OF-series? Both are military war simulators, and they involve such a huge load of teamwork it really takes a lot of skill to master those. Bets games ever imo, I prefer games to stay true to what they are originally intended to be. Such as Minecraft not trying to be super-realistic, sticking to its lego-thing, it does a hell of a good job at just that, battlefield trying to stay somewhere between CoD and Arma, (Fantasy jumpknife vs real tactics) I enjoy that, but i also enjoy Arma series trying to be as realistic as possible, and they are doing a good job at that too!

Though I do not only enjoy realistic games, as pre-told, i enjoy games staying true to what they want to be or are already. An example would be SC-series, excellent game for those who prefer only key-control (extremely) fast paced balanced RTS games. What about CS:S? Well its a competative game, and really well-balanced. It is a good game, given the conditions trying to be a shooter with balanced and competative play.

Total war series? A friggin awesome game, given the condition it is trying to be a turn-based tactical RTS game!

The conclusion is that all games eventually fail when they try to be something they simply ain't, i disagree with you, games do not have to try and be pixelated games to be good, some games are doing very well at just that. CoD for example, why didn't they just stick to the competative(!) arcade style game? Now it is purely something for total noobs to enjoy their auto-aim and lag-shots give them kills and splash up a huge massive reward text covering half of your screen. Not even mentioning their lack of (or inability?) improving and innovate both their gameplay and graphics.
Isn't this an accurate representation of CoD?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eE_msAKWdOs

That being said, i would not want the industry to stagnate at the nostalgic pixels floating around, rather i enjoy pure clear graphics resembling reality on screen. Cut the last part for un-realistic games(fantasy, minecrfat-like etc.) Those games have had their time, and for us it's time to let go and sometimes go back and play the old classics, but don't expect any new fresh blood into those games. DOn't get me wrong, the old C&C are much better than the new cartoonish piss they are shitting out now. That however, has absolutely nothing to do with how bad/great the graphics are, b ut hwo the artstyle is played out.

Maybe he caught the mag upsidedown in that MW3 pic. It doesn't look like he's reloading, and MW2 had scenes where a guy tossed you a mag.
Not to make a big deal or anything, but you're comparing a shooter that doesn't even try to have all that good graphics to a shooter that constantly upgrades their engine.

Dude that duty calls video is a pretty back attempt to make fun of CoD. It's not even like CoD.

He didn't have you even seen the trailer? Making excuses for such retarded (either, optimization for consoles, hint, hint) mistakes. BTW, can you tell me what kind of missile that russian submarine is firing in the MW3 trailer? It looks like a pure white thing with no texture whatsoever.

Im comparing those who pushes the technology forward to those who stagnate until the last piece of dollar is milked out of the customer before upgrading. DId you know that MW3 will have destruction, vehicles and larger maps? They brag about it HAHA! not like BF have had it for some years now.. Oh, and call of duty are upgrading their engine just that it cannot be upgraded so much every time given the 1year release schedule they have, whilst DICE have developed FB2.0 for over three years now, rewriting just about everthing (thats talking like 90%) from scratch.

That Duty calls video my friend is an accurate representation of just about every new CoD game ;)

Blame Activision, not the game series, and the developers. Let me get this straight... You're saying CoD's engine is being upgraded, and they have vehicles, destuction, and larger maps. But you're also saying:
And since when was not cehicles mentioned? Vehicles are a must in next-gen games, alogn with destruction and large maps, none wich CoD fullfills.

Why do you have to be such a fanboy, Gabbe?
I like CoD, I like lots of games. But you're making me not want to get BF3 because you're trying to cram your opinions down my throat. I'll be getting MW3, and Assassin's Creed Revelations. I'll get BF3 later for christmas or something. Or maybe sooner if you wanna co-op with me. But I'm a bit more excited about AC4 and MW3. Also...I don't have that much money. :P

@Ishmaru: How your character moves in the fp view, heavily defines the feel of the game. If he runs and snaps his fingers at the same time, you're going to think? WTF?! Crysis 2 had a very realistic feel, because the fp animations were so accurate and real looking. Also I'm an animator I notice these things more. My friend didn't buy BC2, he'd played it and decided he didn't like it. I asked him why, and he said that it looked dumb, and the character walked like a retard.
Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: Gabbe on 2 June 2011, 19:23:48
They won't have any new vehicles, only the old killstreak ones. Yap confirmed, google is sauce. Destruction? Scripted, yap its in there, but scripted. Large maps? I simply don't belive they'll abandon theyr core fanbase wich enjoys the fast paced gameplay. Simply put a tad larger maps just to have it in there to compete with BF, but it won't even be close to BF3, yet again BF2 or the BC series.

Im not a fanboy, I don't know if you notice, but all my saying is fact, and when subjective opinion i state so and reason for that.

I want Skyrim, BF3 and Arma 3!! Maybe AC2:revelations later but those primarily, such a good game year this time! :D :D Oh and yes, it is AC2:revelations, not AC4, neither was bro'hood AC3, it was kind of an "expansion" on the already established storyline. Devs said so, look up on some oldposts on their facebook page if you care. Ubisoft will have the AC series have trilogies, confirmed at AC website. Ubisoft is kind of milking this series now, but not even as close as Activision is milking the CoD series.

All CoD fanboys bash on BF when something is a little out of place, whilst completely ignoring the glitch in their own precious masterpiece of jewel(fake). The running in MW1/BO/MW2/WaW and will most likely be in MW3 because animations don't change in any CoD games, take notice of this, slides on the ground, it has close to no contact with the floor, dynamically speaking, whilst BF series have the armatures react to a hill or a flat plane. Obviously both games have some things they would like to change, but BF series is yet again superior because of the fact that they have technology advatage. MW2 running looks more realistic, given if you slide on ice or something (wich doesn't occur any often/at all). BC running looks the same, but it includes dynamical allocation of ground to calculate armature position.

On the other hand I would like BF series to include more game modes, seriosuly more game modes, anything but TDM would be awesome. And removal of that stupid k/d ratio that makes people camp, hell this makes me think of something, CoD is a camping game, you are rewarded to sit in a corner with you stupid sniper or MG and kill people on spawnpoints, what a brilliant idea! Rewarded by killstreaks and a high score.

Assassin's Creed 3: Brotherhood
Dude Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood may be the 'name', but it is without a doubt the third major game in the entire series. Thus why it can be refered to as AC3.

Gabbe: I don't know if you get this, but as much tech as BF may have, I've always found CoD more enjoyable than BF. Graphics don't make the game.

What's the big deal with Arma... I've played it maxed out, I hated it. Way to many controls(had to keep looking them up) to do simple things, bland/meh graphics. I just enjoyed the helicopter(some) and running around listening to coltan blues. :P

I never said CoD was perfect, I just said I enjoy playing it. Dude BF movement ain't perfect either I've seen quite a few movement glitches in the gameplay vids.

What's even the huge deal about graphics? I judge games by the following, in order of importance: Story > Gameplay > Depth > Controls > Graphics > Sound/Music/Voices > Multiplayer. Notice how Graphics are down near the end (though under sound because late night gaming doesn't let me use sound for anything but PC games, not to mention that sometimes the sound can be so annoying, particularly beeps when navigating menus). Multiplayer is low priority for me, largely because my internet will generally kick me, leaving only maybe one game in my entire arsenal multiplayer compatible. Even something where the massive ~600 ping won't matter, such as Glest fails because the connection tends to be "hiccuppy", and Glest doesn't have any way to reconnect after losing connection, like many other games do *poke*.

I'm not against games realistic games, its just that being/looking realistic is not the only system to judge a game by.

For me a good game id defined by: gameplay, controles, graphics, music, story, sound

And by graphics meaning aestics, color, composition,  smoothness. Not weather or not there are bullets in magazine, or if a missle looks like a generic white missle.

The only part of story I care most about is characterization. I can live with a simple even if overdone hero saves world, as long is I like the characters.

At least its just me...

Guys its the feel of the game, that's the turn-on or turn-off. The feel is generated by: 1 Story/Music 2 Graphics/Gameplay 3 Controls.
Different things matter different amounts for different games. Minecraft graphics suck the gameplay is meh, but the feel is so attractive, the feeling of infinite building possibilities. Crysis graphics are king, and it has a jungle shooter/sci fi thriller feel to it which makes it a really fun game. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood has an excellent storyline, a spectacular soundtrack, good graphics, and addictive gameplay. If Assassin's Creed played Screamo 24/7 I would either delete the game or turn off the music. :P I don't think you can put different things in order by how much you like them, because it usually varies a lot for each game.

This exactely, a game with suckish graphics might be fun, but it will only be so if it is trying to stay to what it is. Minecraft would not be fun with a story or something. It would totally ruin the entire purpose of the game! Crysis was a, and still is a stress test for computers, there aren't many that runs it over 30FPS, but it looks extremely awesome and it has a unique gunfeel wich corresponds to the crystal clear graphics. Crysis with minecraft graphics would suck hard. Just admit it. Oh and while I think of it, there was this mission in warhead i belive, where you were to go through a tunnel cave with lots of alien and natural roots sticking out, and sure the graphics alone scared the shit out of me! It wouldn't be fun with lower graphics details, the graphics totally made the feel of the game.

Arma requires teamwork and patience, and if your a squad-leader or commander, it requires tactical skills. Everything in that game is dynamic, if you make a mistake, the whole mission changes. It fits perfectly for my playstyle basically, really, if you didn't enjoy Arma2 because of the massive amount of controls it has (I belive they use the entire keyboard almost), try OFP, it has arma hitsystem, but normal shooter walking and running around system. It has the arma shooting system, wich basically includes bullet drop, bullet impact etc. And i would say it is fairly realistic. It doesn't have as good graphics though.

Look, AC2:Brotherhood is a assasins creed 2. It just isn't like Battlefield 1(1942) Battlefield 2(vietnam1942) Battlefield 3(battlefield 2) Battlefield 4(2142) Battlefield 5(BC1) Battlefield 6(Heroes) Battlefield 7(BC2) AND now Battlefield 8(3)

Talk to the guys on some AC forums or something. Their facebook wall for example.

SOON E3 IS HERE AND WE'LL HAVE A TON OF FOOTAGE FROM EVERY UPCOMING GAME :D :D :D

I hope to see Battlefront 3 trailer now, man then i would...oh well...

I just finished beating Frogatto.  It was definitely the best platformer I've ever played, and another example of aesthetics vs. graphics.

http://www.frogatto.com/

I've also played through the Lugaru demo, and it's got me strongly considering buying it.  It's like Bugs Bunny meets Assassin's Creed, cross-platform for $10 (and the code is GPL).  If you enjoy stealth games and/or fighting games, this is definitely a title to check out (at least the free demo).

Cool little game, but not something I would spend money on though.

Im comparing those who pushes the technology forward to those who stagnate until the last piece of dollar is milked out of the customer before upgrading. DId you know that MW3 will have destruction, vehicles and larger maps? They brag about it HAHA! not like BF have had it for some years now.. Oh, and call of duty are upgrading their engine just that it cannot be upgraded so much every time given the 1year release schedule they have, whilst DICE have developed FB2.0 for over three years now, rewriting just about everthing (thats talking like 90%) from scratch.

Blame Activision, not the game series, and the developers. Let me get this straight... You're saying CoD's engine is being upgraded, and they have vehicles, destuction, and larger maps. But you're also saying:
And since when was not cehicles mentioned? Vehicles are a must in next-gen games, alogn with destruction and large maps, none wich CoD fullfills.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UfolMgQZDk

MW3s destruction is scripted. It was just another Activision trick to hype up their game so that they can milk the series even more. I highly doubt that Vehicles are a real new feature, just another activision trick. Same goes for larger maps, co-op and everything, it will be just like MW2. Killstreak vehicles doesn't count.

I'd rather put it you are the fanboy defending CoD, so instead of acusing me (and im just giving information) for fanboyism maybe you should have a look at yourself.

How am I at all a fanboy...
I don't care if the destruction is scripted. It's still destruction. It doesn't mean it's a BAD GAME gabbe. I will enjoy playing AC:R, CoD:MW3, and BF3, as they look like fun games. I don't care what you think you can "prove" to me. I play games for fun dude. :P

Post by: Gabbe on 5 June 2011, 19:24:50
While we are talking destruction in this context that means dynamic destruction. Let me put it this way, destruction = fun. More destruction (dynamic) = more fun. Fun is not something constant, but subjective and it can be measured.

You are a fanboy in the same manner I am. Your accusing me of fanboyism, all I want is the games to compete so I can get the best possible product, but Activision is so damn lazy they don't make their game better tyhey just milk it for all its worth.

Almost all other aspects of a the game matter more than the destructibility. Scripted destruction always looks nicer too.

Activision has a different idea of what's good. You want games to constantly upgrade their graphics and GRAPHICS GRAPHICS GRAPHICS. Activision wants a large amount of CoD games, with expanding gameplay(and money, but everyone wants that), and MW2 graphics were pretty awesome. MW2 graphics engine-wise were meh, but the content was really good, MW2 made really good use of shaders, not to mention how smooth the graphics are(as in high frame-rate). BF3 graphics are actually damaged by the fact that there's no rig that can max it out, it suggests bad performance. I can easily see BF3 recreated with the CryEngine, and having much better performance, (and vegetation bending...).
By the way, can you shoot down trees in BF?

Im not going to stagnate at todays technology, I want the technology to improve. CoD isn't expanding on anything! Thats what im saying, they are stuck in some hole it seems, tell me one thing they've improved since MW2. BO was a total fail, don't count it in. MW2 graphics engine is a modified QUAKE engine from 1999 ^^

Frame-rate is not graphics. If it can run 70FPS im fine. How can you say BF3 graphics are damaged by the fact there is no rig that can MAX it? Let me emphasize MAX. That means the top level of detail. The consoles run on the lowest possible settings, and DICE said its gonna look a heck of a lot better than other console games. That equals my rig can run this at 120+ FPS.

Sorry Seth, but you just have to let go of CryEngine being the best engine out there. FrostBite2.0 is just WAY more powerfull. Can you shoot down trees in BF? Which one? 1942? no. 2? sometimes. 2142? sometimes. bad company? Definately. Bad company 2? Definately. Battlefield 3? ALL surroundings are taking impact from explosions, bullets and movement. EVERYTHING is dynamic. If I want to blow down a building, I go in a empty server and use the hourse it takes to do so.

FrostBite 2.0 is superior in all fields.

Say hello to consoles gabbe, they've been holding back graphical technologies for years. DICE is internal EA they have plenty of money, plenty of resources to borrow from, they can easily afford to develop 2 versions of the game. CoD just switched developers, I don't know how you can honestly insist that the new developers should try to improve the engine(yet).

No rig that can max it also means, bad performance.

The Cryengine is capable of just about everything done in BF, with better performance. Plus Cryengine can do lots of fancy vegetation physics( :P). The problem is that DICE as stated above, has the resources and money to develop 2 versions of the game and fully utilize the engine, unlike Crytek. Crytek doesn't have a very good financial situation as far as I know. Crytek also can't borrow technologies from other games. They have to do every little damn thing themselves. Unless of course they pay another studio to help them.
Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: Gabbe on 6 June 2011, 20:07:40
Don't act like I don't know the consoles have been doing that since their release. EA doesn't want to spend the unecesarry money on making two versions, usually, somehow DICE convinced them it was a good idea. And don't you dare defending Activision, wich is worth more than EA, for their decision only to utilize the weakest of the platforms, the X360, as their main development platform. truth is Activision is a money hungry monster milking the shit wherever they can. I insist that Activision don't fire their emplyers right when a megasucces is going. Like they did under MW2 with half IW. IW was imrpoving their engine after MW, but then Activision fired them. Thats where the problem lies, not in there being new developers, like you are implying. Fact is Actvision is milking the crap out of ...

Again, graphics mean very little. I'd rather have trash graphics and a very good game than have 100% photorealistic graphics and the game to suck. Or 100% photorealistic graphics and 1 FPS (slideshow). The way I see it, when it all comes down to it, both games have their pros and cons, and before saying Black Ops failed, bear in mind it's the best selling game ever, selling more than 7 million copies world wide in the first 24 hours only, and has made over a billion dollars in profit. Must be one heck of a fail, huh?

Now, please, can we not argue about the games? This topic should be more about reporting and discussing the games themselves, not pitting them against each other in a death brawl of which one is better, which will always be heavily seeded by personal preferences.

Gabbe: MW3 will be a good game. As for BF3 I will probably buy it, but they need to fix that horrid first-person look. The way you can see your feet in BF3 while you're doing stuff is awesome, but Crysis 2 did that first, and it looks better in Crysis 2. :P

Well art style should not determine gameplay...

Disgaea and a large chunk of NIS games are a Turn Based Strategy RPGs (same genre as Final Fantasy Tactics) which would probably be very boring to heavy Action based FPS gamers. This is for people who like more unique comedic twist to the classical rpg gaming experience. Especially completionists, who like grinding to max level, and collecting legendary gear. Disgaea games actually do very well with a large fan base.

The other game is a Action RPG Dungeon crawler, with an retro NES art style, and a unique leveling system. Game focuses on customization of your characters, which is almost like a puzzle game in and of its self.

Look at the most used guns. Compare the stats of the FAMAS to any other gun. The spawn system is shittey. It looks like WaW, no improvement. No, new 3d models is not an imrpovement in any way.

Something is popular doesn't mean its good. Justin bieber popular, he a good singer? No.

Frames per second doesn't count when comparing graphics. You'd have the rig to run it? go! And if the consoles can run it, any PC ment for gaming is gonna take it on low settings atleast. Anyone able to play BC2 will be able to play BF3. confirmed, DICE tweetar.

MW3 will be as hyped and as horrible as its predecessors MW2 and BO. BO was made by treyarch, not IW, but they use the same engine just that MW3/2 engine is a little modified. (AKA IWengine4). I saw its E3 trailer, and it looked EXACTELY LIKE MW2. No improvement -> no buy.

I find it funny how I am a fanboy apparently, calling out facts about both games, whilst all you can say is "I'll be getting MW3 probably, they need to fix blah blah blah in BF3 before I buy it!".
I know that BF3 doesn't have extremely good First person view, but ateast it has dynamics that CoD simply doesn't have! Take a look at it, it looks like they guy is flying through the air on some air-baloon!

BF3 FP view is horrid gabbe, not "doesn't have extremely good". The thing I like about games like Crysis 2 and CoD is that since they aren't ultra-ground breaking games, they actually put a little work into the content.

You're a fanboy because you claim that BF3 is the best game ever, when clearly that is an opinion. I have my own opinion on what's fun. BF3 just doesn't look that addicting.

BF3 FP view is decent when put into comparison with CoD. If you ever looked on their E3 trailer then you can clearly see that the guy sweeps over the enviroment like it was nothing htere and he just a ghost. In BF3 you can now also see your feet, if you look down on the ground, you can see parts of your body, like legs and maybe some upper body. This is something new to BF, it was in Crysis and it is non-existant in the minds of Activision. Never been in CoD, sometimes they managed to script it in, but when you look down, your feet disappears. Tell me one friggin thing that IW improves with their new MW3? ONE THING. Thats right, they never put any work at all into their new content. This looks exactely like a DLC ffs!

The campaign maps also need re-doing(too many "why can't I go here?!" moments). :P Did you notice that Crysis 2 has an advanced graphics menu now?

Also Crytek is starting to use too much bloom. Bloom is pretty realistic, but it's not something where more is better.

Valve's engine is old.  I mean to illustrate that the graphics engine is secondary to story and gameplay.

(Know nothing about mw vs battlefield but surely most buy and play both?)

My biased opinion is this; MW2.5...sorry MW3 will have the exact same animations as its predecessor MW2. It will still use the quake engine from 1999. The developers have spoken out that they aren't improving the engine and thus not the graphics, thus not the map size, and therefore the gameplay will most likely stay the same. Battlefield 3 on the other hand IS using a brand new engine called frostbite 2.0, featuring a light system capable of doing an almost infinite amount of lightsources in a single object. One object in BF3 has more lightning detail than an entire map in BC2. Also if you have played the FIFA series you know that they have an superior animation system in every aspect. this ANT system that it is called is integrated in Frostbite 2.0 allowing for life like animations with real weight added to it. Something most games today lack completely (Im looking at you CoD 7,6,5,4 and your flying on ground running..).

Did i mention that BF3 with FB2.0 will deliver support for 64 players, but DICE playtested with 256 players?
And I forgot vehicles!
And the most important thing, destruction 3.0 allowing to wipe out any enemy cover you can find o.O.
Also the Battlefield series have always had superior sound technology to the CoD series.

While I can agree to preferring Battlefield over Call of Duty, aren't you taking this a tad too seriously?

Which one?

Speaking of MMO's and banning, I am disgusted at the numbers of bots and real world traders in such games. They spoil the game for others and are a plague that deserve to be banned.

The MMORPG is Spiral Knights.
Oh no, I would never do that. (I've also played Runsecape before, too...)

I got banned because after they released this event, it glitched the 2nd currency of the game...I don't even know why they had to wait 45 minutes to patch it, since it was really serious. I guess it was just a really bad decision and luck... It should have been a temp ban though. Most of the other people who got banned were people who actually payed for the currency in cash...so its a lose lose...

Now, I'll need to try to write a really nice appeal...  :(

Looks nice, but I don't plan to buy it, I wish they'd make a replacement for the old BF1942 instead of keeping on the modern warfare part of FPS

Closest thing you will ever get is 1943 for PS3 and XboX360, maybe 1944 for PC with updated graphics like BF3. But for non-BF game is suggest Red Orchstra series. very accurate to history and very fun aswell. There is also a mod for BF2 called Forgotten Hope coming out soon. Very good aswell.

But if you want updated graphics, i'd reccoment you wait for 1944 for PC.

Anyways i think you will be missing out on the fun if you skip BF3 :P

I actually prefer modern style combat games over world war style. We've just had so many games based on the world wars that I'm just tired of them now. Plus, weapons have improved considerably since the world wars, adding for a more iconic game.
Title: Re: Report games here!
Post by: wyvern on 16 August 2011, 19:49:56
The first forgotten hope was also good, but now I'm lazy, modern war is mostly about flying a drone 3000 miles away, so thats not really half as interesting as in the days of WW1-2 when soldiers had to rely on crummy bolt action rifles and training more then now, now troops don't even get trained in how to use a bayonet, makes modern war seem a lot more boring. If a WW2 mod for BF3 comes out I'll think about buying it, but otherwise, I don't have much reason to buy it

I agree with Omega, we have a lot of WW2 games, even though they are old, they are there. I'll assure you modern war in games isn't much about flying a drone 3000 miles away. Also knifing is in modern war games so you won't need any bayonet either.

[big]Call of the Past: Modern Rehash 3
[/big]
How to make a Call of Duty game in 10 easy steps:

Step 1: Use an outdated game engine from 2005

Step 2: Insert crappy storyline about Russians and nuclear weapons

Step 3: Design a character that 12 year olds will perceive as "cool" and refer to him only by his mysterious call sign.

Step 4: Kill said character in a scripted event 2/3 way through the campaign.

Step 5: Kill key bad guy in another scripted event involving slow motion

Step 6: Add a halfbaked multiplayer mode. Make sure that there are plenty of glitches and imbalances and good places to camp.

Step 7: Profit.

Step 8: Release overpriced map pack.

Step 9: Profit some more.

Step 10: Repeat steps 1-10 until series has been sufficiently milked dry

Number 10 is a paradox, because in order to complete it, you must repeat the first nine steps and it.

I think it is still right, because when the condition "Series milked dry" is in place, you must no longer repeat the process.

BF3 beta now online for those who got MOHLE or TIER1 edition, or preorder. I got preorder and MOHLE, no key, 28 September...FUUUUUU Ea servers and sucky chat support from India or Pakistan or somewhere...

Post by: -Archmage- on 2 October 2011, 04:31:53
I played the BETA.
All my friend had to say was "that sucks balls".

I am highly disappointed as it is clearly no match for Crysis 2, or even UrbanTerror.

-no improvement in destruction
-first person graphics from 1990's
-massively overdone sun that blinds player
-couldn't find any real reflections
-cartoony water
-footsteps and bullets had no effect on water
-can only visit menu(option, exit, etc) while player is alive[extremely annoying]
-on ultra settings many, many textures were blurry[yes 16x anisotropic filtering]
-almost no blood on screen, it's hard to tell when you're being hit

It's very boring whether you care about graphics or not, and it certainly isn't a king of graphics.
I love graphics: Hated it.
My friend can hardly tell runescape from crysis: Hated it.

I maxed it out completely. Disappointed.

For comparison:
1990's game:
(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e5/Megaman3_slide_rush.gif)

Just thought we should get that out there before we compare graphics to "1990s games". Not that it was a bad year, but I have a bad allergy to hyperboles.

True I exaggerated a bit, though it reminded me of Farcry, so make that 2004. :O

I think it's pretty sad that this is even supposed to knock call of duty over.

I will be buying MW3. I will not be buying BF3.

Also, the destruction in Battlefield is far overrated. While Crysis 2 has very little destruction, it has very nice rich destruction with good amounts of physics. Battlefield simply generates some fake looking dust particles and rocks with no physics then removes geometry.

Not good as in "A-Sequel-to-Crysis1-which-by-the-way-still-tops-any-game-but-BF3s-graphics-today" like.

On another note, Crysis 1 is coming to consoles.
