Func_Msgboard: Other PC Games Thread.

Posted by - on 2004/09/27 08:12:48

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?

Checked out Dark Messiah of Might and Magic again recently, pretty neat. Why has this kind of thing not taken on more ? First person melee dungeon crawling is awesome with a half decent combat system.

Good news is it seems Techland is getting back to working on Hellraid.

I agree, it is pretty neat. Also, super pumped about Hellraid.

Give Vermintide a go, this has a great melee system and super fun gameplay.

Loved Dark Messiah

Fantastic game, nothing else really like it and also pumped about Hellraid.

Romero and Adrian Carmack, back together on something dark and violent which uses keyboard and mouse.

Whoa

I hope it doesn't turn out to be some kickstarter bollocks.

The Return - our saviors ?

FifthElephant - I have Vermintide and quickly got disappointed - its a reskinned Left 4 Dead :(

I love coop but somehow I hate the whole Left 4 Dead type of thing. Its so formulaic in the end, poison dude, grabby dude rinse and repeat rinse and repeat.

Very arcadey in that sense I guess, which I also occasionally like for coffee break coop games, but there it doesn't really work for me.

Dark Messiah.

Yes really good game and pity there isn't more of it.

L4D2 was awesome of course. Verminitide good but not as much fun and quite unforgiving.

Killes if you can dig 3PS fantasy too try Enclave.

Technomancer....

What do we thing??

Graphics look great. Setting looks cool. Monsters look entertaining.

Combat looks kinda ass?? Pure-batman style and I think the camera perspective would piss me off...

We think that calling it a gameplay trailer is a joke.

Looks Like...

.... a bad mix in between Mad Max and DeusX.. meh !

Looks like Treyarch is going to make good on the Black Ops 3 mod tools, they're doing a closed test of the tools now. Community members are showing little things they've thrown together in the past few days. Not seen any editor shots yet, but presumably it's all still an updated Radiant.

And posted slightly prematurely, someone has posted more thorough thoughts here: http://mappersunited.com/index.php?/topic/297-alpha-modtools-first-impression-features/

Not Surprised

#9154 posted by mjb on 2016/04/25 17:15:34

But considering the team it's hard to feel let down. Exciting none the less as I know the thing will be funded in no time.

Kickstarted

I'm a whore for kickstarter + romero :(

"FROM ROMERO & CARMACK" is really pissing me off. It's so obviously to make people think it's that Carmack.

#9158 posted by scar3crow on 2016/04/25 17:54:55

Which is funny, because, if it was John, it wouldn't mean as much to me. I'd love if he were involved, seriously, but Adrian being a part of this has a lot more impact for me.

Also, liking that all of the maps are by Romero. Even more so liking that the theme is basically an excuse for mappers to make what they want and put gameplay in it. The layouts you can glimpse in the trailer definitely jive with his vague claims back in December that e1m8b was a dry run for something new. e1m8b wasn't flawless, but I'd love a UE4 powered game packed with maps like that.

Well.

That video did sound promising. Decent premise to allow for some good experimentation and diversity within the SP game.
