Probably because they were trying to be all 2019 about it and making a 'they' or a 'them' controller. After all, we've heard of the thousands of female gamers that are up in arms about the blatant masculinity and phallic representations of the standard XBox and PlayStation controllers, haven't...
A shame in a way that they bagged off bots from the BF series. Quite good fun on BF2142 and very handy at allowing you to learn the quite tricky aerial transport controls - rather than plummet 5+yourself into the ground in a flaming death.
If you crack the 'stupid AI' conundrum - you'll be an instant multi-millionaire! It's the bane of most single-player/co-op games, especially within FPSs. In the RTS genre, it can appear quite intelligent at times.
Part of me would however still prefer a leisurely play-through of a round with...
Finished the War Stories last night. Quite moving and evocative with the text written at the end of each one. Good to see you playing as the Germans in one of them - especially reflecting on the hopelessness of the situation by the end of WW2.
Now if I could only find one other person on Planet...
That's the essence of these games - but I do think they have lost their way. We are still burdened with the cosmetic crap that makes no odds to the game whatsoever. Do I give a toss that some sniper bloke has head-shotted me from 200m, but had the ultra rare giraffe-combo jungle skin on his...
Had my first online experience of BFV last night.
Joined that squad-option where it appears to be four-a-side. New map, unknown kit - just jumped onto a squad-mate with a passing Sherman tank (obviously a sitting duck in the turret on top). Drove around a bit, made a couple of the other side...
I wouldn't take it to heart - it's a long-running comment that we have on here that crops up every now and then.
Just like anthracite being referred to as amphacite.
I'd also question the necessity of games that are single player only (or predominately) to be totally reliant on streaming? On the rare occasion that the internet connection has gone down - you've at least got something else to have a dabble with in the meantime. And if I actually think about it...
Yeah - the free offer has expired now, though the core game is still around £3+, the Master Collection is £6.71.
If you're enjoying it now, I'd strongly recommend getting the MC version. It's no longer on cdkeys and Humble Bundle want over £25 for it. Usually the core game is £14.99 on Steam...
@Jonnio - have you had any weird input issues on the PC version during war stories? Finished the British one at the start and began the Norwegian one. That played fine for about 15 minutes itself and then just randomly, I couldn't scroll through the weapons with the mouse. I couldn't fire...
I check every now and then for the wireless devices that have connected to the router. With no default expiration set, it's easy to have devices (phones, tablets, laptops etc) that have a existing connection to your router that can be many months old.
How many people actually check what they...
Took a punt on this as it was around £17 on cdkeys for the PC, at the weekend. Haven't gone onto the cannon fodder of online yet - but tried the war stories single player stuff.
Looks good, sounds even better. Let down by some really weird game mechanics. Emptying an MG42 into a truck that's...
Me too. I signed up for that cheap Xbox pass and have actually downloaded Outer Worlds - but have yet to try it. I'm kind of hoping for a Mass Effect/Fallout hybrid of some sort.
Either this player is the 'roided in front of the screen - pixel-perfect in the vertical plane (is auto-aim even still available these days?) - or he's a T-1000.
To even line up perfectly in such a minuscule time is impressive - let alone to see the enemy in the first place. Pretty sure that...
I think what that clip shows is the virtual lack of any target leading. Literally put the target in the crosshair and fire - 99% of the time it will hit.
That sniper shot at around 6.30 in - lol wut? The occasional tracer coming your way, barely aim and bang - the enemy's dead?
Wake Island is legendary in BF games!
Actually quite accurate in terms of the overall layout and appearance of the island itself. The book about the Battle of Wake Island is a good one if you get the chance to nab it...
The Pacific theatre is probably the setting that would get me back into BF.
Really wish on a different tact, they had done a Company of Heroes 3 with this background setting.
