Other PC Games Thread.
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?

No 
Actually in an interview they said that will probably be tweaked. Killing the charger with one frying pan hit looks weird. 
 
And they might change the rules based on how you're playing. Players vs Players could never have 1 hit kills but Players vs AI might... 
Changing Rules 
are awesome
 
Hey, they can be. As long as it's made clear what's happening to the player. 
To Be Fair 
Boomers die from 1 bullet no matter what mode you're in. The charger is pretty big looking to go instantly into ragdoll after being hit by a frying pan. 
Stalker : SOC With Oblivion Lost 2.2 Mod 
Is great stuff! =)

Been playing loads recently, and this mod really doe's turn the game into something special.

+ Tons more guns, ammo types, armours and items

+ Tons of new mutants (some are scary as hell)

+ Fixed campaign levels that let you keep on playing after you "complete" the game.

+ Numerous tweaks and fixes all over the place, which make the game better and much more atmospheric.

Give it a whirl if you have not tried it! It's still bastard hard in some places, but its nice to play a game that genuinely challenges you for a change =) 
Fucking Game. 
i LOVE stalker but the god damn thing never runs for long before crashing. it's just evil. :( 
Isn't Oblivion Lost 
the mod that made me die at the first few dog thingies at the first armor place because i fired about 50 shots at them and only got 3 down because they were so tough and seemed to respawn? I think it was. Never even started it again after that experience. 
 
I didn't find OL much harder than vanilla Stalker to be honest. Sure you're not confusing it with the Invasion mod or some other of those? 
Dark Salvation 
Looks like a well achieved Q3 porting ... At least very evil-ish and satanic !!! Hell, it sounds frightening !

Hmm 
Isn't that the one with the appalling animations/models/level design? 
 
what struck me as funny is that the trailer has some clips with some seriously BAD particle effects. i can't even tell what it is supposed to be. you see these big blobs spawn in without fading or growing-- they just pop in, fly upward and then pop out (again, no fading or anything, just *pop*). if they couldn't even be assed to get rid of that or at least make it look 50% less shitty, what does that say about the quality of the rest of the pack? :P 
Hey Now 
I like the textures.... And it's single player quake3, right? That hasn't been attempted as far as I know since... The Dark Conjunction (shudder). 
Those Are Shitty Emissions. 
Yes, they smell bad and are dirty and since they're shown in the promo video they're shitty public emissions.

Looks like a design weak team - if particle fx are weak then don't use them. Q3 has a very nice shader system that could replace all those particle attempts with much nicer looking stuff.

Although they also have one shifter texture in there that's just round red circles. 
What Grahf Said. 
 
Dawn Of War 2 
Who wants game?? 
I Didn't Buy It 
My $ limit is exceeded for the month.

Good thing really, There's alot of other games I need to play.

And going through Soulstorm with the Sisters of Battle isn't easy, so that's still got some mileage in it. 
DoW2 
Haven't played mp since I bought it yet (played the beta a bit) but yeah sure, I'll give it a go if some people are interested. 
!! 
New L4D campaign coming from Valve "Crash Course" that fills the gap between No Mercy and Death Toll. Sounds pretty cool, can't wait for it. 
Pah 
My sisters of battle save game is corrupt.

Lovely.

New L4D campaign? :D 
More L4D 
Ff Doom3 
Well I've never actually played it, but watching these L4D videos, I'm really not impressed by this game. Looks like Serious Sam style gameplay but without the awesome level design from SS2.

Well anyway, i'm just posting about FraggingFree, the doom3 roe mod? Any of you guys played it? I just played through it all over the last few days. Fkn hell, what a professional mod. To be honest the level design shits all over id's levels, and the new monsters (albeit some already released previously) and weapons shit all over ROE. Just a shame it's WAY too insanely fkn hard. If it weren't so hard, and maybe a smidgen longer with less spawning monsters in the same areas over and over, this could easily be a second official mission pack.

Still, the best (albeit short) experience I've had with Doom3 mods/maps is still Shamblers Castle :)

Play it. If you like zombie movies, you'll love it.

A great simple HARD game where you have to sneak past security cameras.
