Func_Msgboard: 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?

You Are All Cunts.

And not at all funny.

Now you've got the hilarity out of your systems, sensible suggestions please.

Currently thinking about Drakensang and Dragon Age, so would welcome sci-fi-esque or strategy-esque to contrast with that. I think Xcom might not run at all, and Fallout2 etc too dated for my tastes.

That's funny!

at the risk of ruining the joke...

path of exile?

#7038 posted by [Kona] on 2014/01/18 08:10:07

you haven't played any of the Dragon Age games?
I'd start with that.

not sure it's really a laptop game though, maybe too complex for laptop.

What about Magicka

The Banner Saga

#7040 posted by bal on 2014/01/18 10:40:41

Seems pretty good so far, very pretty, with turn+grid based combat.

XCom is a really good game if you can run it yeah.

Thanks.

Path Of Exile is online only and I've played it through.

T'bird reassures me Dragon Age is not too intense to play so it might be okay.

Banner is not my style at all, sorry.

Magika looks fine, definitely suitable, although yet more iso-metric-ish fantasy RPG and I did plenty of that in TL2 and POE.

Pretty sure my laptop is below the minimum specs for Xcom.

Xenonauts

#7042 posted by Spiney on 2014/01/18 13:05:50

is a nice alternative to Xcom.

Got...

#7043 posted by Shambler on 2014/01/19 20:39:52

Dragon Age.

Might get Drakensang and maybe XCom, gotta check my stats first.

Any thoughts on: Ground Control 2 , Supreme Commander , Homeworld , Overlord 2??

Homeworld

#7044 posted by DaZ on 2014/01/19 23:38:20

not played it but many consider it a classic. I didn't like supreme commander because in order to control the insane army sizes you have to zoom out to a point where all the units become little icons on the map.

Battle for Wesnoth!

SupCom Owns

#7046 posted by - on 2014/01/20 00:13:01

But get the expansion too, it makes it much better.

#7047 posted by skacky on 2014/01/20 00:18:28

Overlord 2 is a fun game, but less than the first. If you like being an evil bastard then it's for you. Homeworld is a classic but it's very difficult, be warned.

Concerning Dragon Age, I think it is one of the worst RPGs I have ever played. Hated everything about it.

#7048 posted by [Kona] on 2014/01/20 01:35:54

i played overlord2 for about half an hour, got not one but two game stopping bugs. cool graphics but i wasn't enjoying it that much, so deleted it.

Thanks.

Useful ideas. I ordered a few games, will see how it goes.

Just Bought Space Engineers On Steam.

#7050 posted by Breezeep_ on 2014/01/20 16:51:57

Can't wait to play it!

SupCom

Daz : "I didn't like supreme commander because in order to control the insane army sizes you have to zoom out to a point where all the units become little icons on the map. "
Wtf ? That was the beast feature/gui find of SupCom. How else do you want it - ant sized dots ?

Re-phrase

#7052 posted by DaZ on 2014/01/20 17:28:28

Sure it worked great! But I wanted to see death robots blasting the shit out of each other, not icons slowly moving across a map and disappearing :)

Just my personal preference.

I Am Confuse

#7053 posted by Killes on 2014/01/20 17:47:19

Zoom back in when the masses of icons meet ? :D

Ahh I remember an epic shield and nuke SupCom match, soooo pretty, such destruction (don't fucking shibe)
