So with the film and music threads still going and being discussed... why don't we get some discussion going on something on topic to the board? What other games are you playing now?

HL2SP: (SMOD) CSS SCI-FI

#1085 posted by negke on 2007/03/15 23:27:58

just spotted this today at tenfour:
http://www.amphibian.myzen.co.uk/css_sci_fi_download/
http://accept.hopto.org/smod/phpbb/download.php?id=96

scripts that let you play the counterstrike source maps in sp with improved (more realistic) gameplay than hl2's. it's possible to adjust physics and graphics for improved realism, and because of SMOD (which is required) it's not as blatantly easy as hl2.
i was fairly surprised how nice the rebuilt cs maps look.
loading times are quite long but playing the maps (objectives: rescuing hostages or killing a certain number of combine, sometimes including reinforcements) was pretty fun.

Are these your words, or a quote?

Yes, I've played the other bridge building games like I said, but I think the free one is the best as there's less fooling around.
You know. It's as if tetris 2 had three dimensions, well it isn't doing it any better, just adds more hassle.
That's why the crypticsea one was good.

ok, I wasn't criticising you, I was just pointing out the other games :)

Sorry

I realized after writing what kind of cock I sounded like but had to go somewhere so couldn't write an instant retonement.

Errrr?

#1091 posted by Shambler on 2007/03/22 12:32:44

What Stalker?

Not Me

#1092 posted by than on 2007/03/22 12:47:29

don't think it's out in Japan yet, and I've no idea about the release date. I might order it from the US...

whatever, I WILL be playing it soon :)

Yay! Stalker!

#1093 posted by pjw on 2007/03/22 16:44:28

I've been having a lot of fun with it. The game kicks ass, despite some minor warts, and is really pretty. And it's tough.

Holy shit is it tough, especially early-on.

DAMN YOU ALL!

My order has been posted but it didnt arrive today :( Really cant wait to get my hands on it.

All the reviews I read gave it an 8/8.5 ranking and said when its had a few patches etc they would give it a 9 or higher, thats great news indeed!

Im actually kinda glad its harder than most games where you can breeze through without any trouble, as long as its not unfair in doing so...

Fingers crossed I will get it tomorrow!

and ps - WoW can wait, Ive been waiting for this game for too long :D

Heh

#1098 posted by necros on 2007/03/22 20:26:43

gamespot has it listed as march 20 as the release date, so technically, it's been out for 2 days now...

in any case, i'm really looking forward to picking this up. been waiting for this game for.. well, ages... and it still looks as amazing as it did back then. i really hope it lives up to at least 1/2 the hype about a-life and all that.

Shambler will hate it with every fibre of his being.

That is all.

Oh Do Tell...

It can join the queue behind 80 more hours of Gothic 3, and Guild Wars, and Thief 3, and Vampire the Assquerade, and Dark Messiah which I haven't even bought yet. I haven't play any games for over a month.

P.S. Let me guess, head bob that makes Alton Towers look like sitting in a library??

I'll probably pick it up now that everyone has been so enthusiastic about it. Looks like a fun game :) I just hope it runs on a 9800

It was in stores in Australia on either Tuesday or Wednesday this week, I haven't got a copy yet but I have seen the legitimate copies that some of my workmates bought. :)

Shut Up Shut Up Shut Up

Tip: * and / on the keypad act as a time lapse/acceleration thingie. The only real use for it (that I've found) is to get to morning more quickly, if you don't want to screw around in the middle of the night and get killed. It also makes you hungry quicker.

Also, it's not quite as hard now as earlier--I've gotten a few better weapons, but you still need to keep on your toes...

Beware--some of the jobs are time-based, so don't be a dumb shit like me and take about ten of them without paying attention, and then fail half of them the next day.

#1105 posted by nitin on 2007/03/23 08:41:35

what, I thought this was an FPS ? sounds like an RPG from pjw's description.

And if I should know this but have been living under a rock, sorry.

#1106 posted by gone on 2007/03/23 11:17:53

Its fps that plays more like RPG
And its must have. (And Im the game-hater :))

It runs on 3 year-old PCs at lower render (w/o normals and bloom)

all the goathics and MoMs and stuff pail in compraison

#1107 posted by gone on 2007/03/23 11:19:09

runs good on 3 year-old PCs

Speeds.

#1108 posted by Shambler on 2007/03/23 12:28:22

Another immaculate review ;).

I still want to know why I'll hate it. No quick-saving? Lots of "defend the suicidal NPC" missions?
