@GreiverBlade how many hours did you play Destiny 2 ?

not sure ... but since i bought it i'd say quite a bit, tho up to lvl 20 for first char was fast, less than 24hrs total, following char were even faster and got a higher PS once max reached (thanks weapon storage ...)

too bad Battle.net launcher has no playtime tracking like steam

I've been playing a bit of BAJA: Edge of Control HD (a HD remaster of a Baja racing "classic" from 10ish years ago). Quite a refreshing game to play. Sure it doesn't excel in physics or graphics but the gameplay is enjoyable and the AI is pretty clever.

Also been playing Overwatch and SW: Battlefront II still. I chose the First Order for the Faction Challenges but I still have pretty much no idea what it all means :| Sadly I've also been encountering some pretty bad server side lag on Battlefront II servers rendering the game almost unplayable I really was enjoying it up until the lag plague.

Which one is the class that has that big melee sword or spear,or whatever it is ?

And would you say that to get the lvl and all those cool weapons etc ,was it a grind for you ? Or did you just had fun,and if so i guess you recommend the game ?

I've been playing some Creeper World 3, which is surprisingly good and entertaining. CW4 is in development and takes the game into the 3D arena which is exciting, but CW3 shouldn't be passed up if you're a strategy fan. I'm still working through the Arc Eternal story, but this game really has a helluva lotta content to offer. I like this game because there's various strategies one can take, which is great because there are times when I want to see how fast I can take a map over or others where I want to turtle for an epic buildup to smash the creeper molecule into oblivion.

I've also decided to get the Lumens DLC for Polaris Sector and start a new game with that while I wait for the 2.7 patch to drop for GalCiv3.

You wanna know what em i playing?
Not freaking Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag that's for sure! Rushed from work to install this garbage, now i know why they are giving it away for free.

Launched multiplayer in a hurry to search for naval battles. In menu searched type of games there was nothing similar to it....so i googled
https://www.vg247.com/2013/07/29/as...-flag-multiplayer-wont-feature-naval-battles/
THERE IS NO NAVAL BATTLES!
Uninstall this,since back in 2013 had the pleasure of playing it all with respectable dlc's all included from your best friends called "the scene". Yeah still a very well made game, i actually enjoyed Black Flag so much.
So glad i didn't have to pay for this one. Cuz last time i gaved Ubisoft my money it was for the biggest disappointment called Far Cry 4, and their ridiculous co-op experience.

My friend, I'm not exactly sure what you are complaining about? You go back and forth about how awesome and horrible it is, and say it's a well made game you enjoyed vey much, but then blast it because a four year old game's multiplayer doesn't have ship multiplayer? I'm so confused.

Anyway, I have spent 98 hours playing Assassin's Creed Origins. They really outdid themselves, and appear to have learned something about open-world RPG's and questing from CDPR, who perfected it with TW3. I finished main quest, but have about 15% of the side quests incomplete, and numerous question marks I need to go see. So it's going to be about 5(+) more hours, since I don't use fast travel, and some of the side quests have multiple parts, like TW3 side quests did, so they have a little more substance and world-building with them.

Here's a few screenshots:

@rtwjunkie your right i did like Black Flag. I'm bitching for no reason.
Just kinda super disappointing that it doe snot have naval battles. I saw some fake videos on youtube about how it supposed to have... turns out, they where actually fake and i waited forever to get this game in anticipation to those battles.

Those are some awesome pictures. Glad you are enjoying yourself. Before i got Battlefront 2 i considered getting Origins instead,but did not because of a few reviews specially this one:

I am very thirsty for a single player great story. I'd buy if there is anything out there that I have not played yet. Feels that 2017 did not bring much.
The game of the year Zelda, was anything but a story game...i don't wanna spend so many hours gathering resources. Andromeda was amazing! But i need more since I will get around 10 days of from work in December and i feel i need to game.

Will give Neir Automata a try...maybe. I already saw a 30 minutes video explaining the entire story, so i already know everything that will happen in the game. Running around farming over and over for those fetch quests, spending so many hours looking up skirt of what seems to be a 14 year old with a big ass sword, does not seem to appealing to me. 8-10 years ago I would have begged to have the computer or this game.
If 14 year old up skirt does not do it for me in video games.....I am getting old :\

@Cvrk I understand your topic now. Since I as a general rule only SP, I didn't remember seeing that piece of news back when it came out.

As to AC: O, it has that great story you might be looking for. The DRM has gotten it some bad press, but overall it is well received by players. I think I have the DRM impact figured out as minimal.

When the game is on pause, it is still running. Therefore, if said DRM was affecting the game highly, the CPU usage would still be high. However, it's not the case. When playing, CPU stays between 60-73% mostly. On pause, it drops to 25% or so. My unofficial look at it tells me that most of the high usage comes from the high amount of things, AI routines, and many NPC. Also, no loading screens from one area to the next. You can travel one end of Egypt to the next without a loading screen.

I've played one of the first assassin creed's games and it was enjoyable but at the same time not my thing. Loved the idea of making a fight, total mess around and hide with the monks or else to dich the pursuit
Currently I play Cabal online, Grim Dawn (really like this game) Crysis 2 and 3 cause both rock and look great, Grid autosport, Demigod and WRC FIA 6 cause I like cars . mostly those on a PC.
PS3 PES 2011, teken 6, SoulCalibur V, Snooker, GrandTurismo 6 and 5 (mostly 6 now) and mortal kombat of course

The DRM is linked to player movement, so no, you don't see usage when paused. It calls home during gameplay.

Fair enough, didn't realize that. I don't think all of it can be attributed to the DRM though: very few games have had such a varied and active NPC and animal schedule and conversations going on. Feels very real, and is bound to hit the CPU a good bit.

Playing a Variation of F1 2017, Assetto Corsa and pCars2. Really into racing games/sims great gun with my G920

 

[Cvrk]

Me too Quake 3...very bad at it. I got it for free when i bought Ryzen cpu, i have all heroes unlocked thing is it s a hard game

Oh no for sure it cannot. But my policy with these Denuvo games is that I don't buy them on release, I do it a year later or so when they're 10-15 eur for a full edition . In many cases DRM has then either been removed or cracked out and overall performance is a LOT better. Sometimes however it is not - for example with Deus Ex: MD. Still pegs 4 cores at 100% all the time and remains stuttery at times, which is ALL DRM at work.

I have the same exact policy. I also w8 a year till the scene release.

Quake 3. I remember quake the first version. OMG it was something This Q3 is not something new or is it? I'd try this.

 

[kurosagi01]

About half way through the Bloodborne DLC now,some of areas are real pain the a*rse but definitely worth the price, more lore is definitely covered with the DLC on top of the base game. Going see if i can plat the game by christmas lol

Started playing Elder Scrolls Online since it was on sale for $10 the other week. I finished Skyrim before (which I normally don't do RPGs) and liked it, so figured a version I could play with a friend might be fun. It is similar, there's a lot more shit though. Typical bunch of windows and information that an MMO offers. I just kind of ignore most of that stuff, equip which armor/weapons have the biggest number, and go mindlessly do quests (while watching TV sometimes). It's just mindless/effortless fun, since the game doesn't take any real skill to just fight random nerds and finish quests. Enjoying just doing that so far with some CS:GO sprinkled in between. I still play Witch It occasionally, but that game has such a small community that it is often impossible to play a game. Haven't gone back to Rocket League since I uninstalled it and honestly don't miss it.

So many SP games installed that I want to go through (either for first time or again), just haven't been really interested in picking up and starting anything new for a while.

Quake 3. I remember quake the first version. OMG it was something This Q3 is not something new or is it? I'd try this.

Try it. Even back then quake was a massive shooter and everyone was playing it very competitive like. So you will still get the same experience,which is brutal level of difficulty. I am serious. People out there really play hard and since it has only exclusive multiplayer game, either you get good and do some serious fraging or you wasted your money. I got mine for free as coupon when i got my cpu.

You get a few heroes, everyone of them with their special abilities. 2 abilities per hero i think. a passive and an active. There is no skill tree, just pre-made skills.
The graphics is very gore like(lots of blood and scary stuff everywhere), and i think it can handle 60+ fps with even lower end systems. Servers never lag, and there s always people to play with even in the mornings.

Because of the power ups,that you get on the map with health and weapon damage etc... the game is even more brutal than Black Ops 3. In BO3 even with all the aerial jumping and etc i still got kills. Here you need to learn the map and be on time to get all the power ups,it's more difficult. So if you spend your money on Quake 3 make sure you are a good shooter gamer.



And since we are on the advise topic:
Should i get Dark Souls 3 just for the multiplayer coop ? Me and a friend wanna play it this holidays season. We are only interested in the coop part. Is it really good? Can the other person joining the server level up as well ?
