    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    I am happy so far. The mission was enough to get me wondering whats next. The gunplay feels a little different, and I am having a little bit of trouble putting my finger on it. For me, it seems that auto assist is turned down. The old 'drag it across his head, shoot while it sticks' bit...

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    I played two games of crucible. Maps seem smaller but action is fairly consistant. What seems an issue is individual skill matters way more and getting a kill and making the numbers uneven seems to really start a steam roll. You all are 4 together vs people spawning in at more random places...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I have people on my Discord that have made macros and literally sat at Raubahn and Pippin for 12 hrs. Just letting the macro run while they go watch TV shows and shit. I think one guy started at 5am this rmorning and finally about an hour ago took a break to go try some crafting.

    DOTA 2

    PPD cracks me up. I know a lot of people seem to hate him, but he just always seems to be a competitor in whatever he does and is just honest. Not trying to be a dick per se. Just, he opens his mouth and out it comes. As to Dota pain, I feel you. Last one was similar. Friend and I queue...

    DOTA 2

    I've haven't watched all the games, but it seems to me that Bristle is a little overpowered this patch. This current game. Even without the CM backing him up he just seems to soak way to much damage while returning it with quills compared to the rest of the team.

    Was told it was originally a place holder joke until they came up with something better, meaning "Name Pending". Don't know if thats true or not.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    I won't deny they make reasons and at this point we're mostly just quibbling. My point and what I will return to is it felt, not that they are trying to tell a story but that they made the mission and level design, then went back to fill the story to move you from mission to mission. This...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Still makes little sense if you think about it. They lost sensors and comms, that's why they haven't heard from the Nexus. So, what's the back up? For us, if we lose comms you still go to the rally point at the appointed time. Let's say they can't repair their shit for whatever reason. Makes...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Yeah, they give a reason. They also throw out that their radar arrays weren't functioning if you read one of the little tablets. But, again. They give a reason but it doesn't make sense. They lost contact with the Nexus that they were supposed to fly too. But wait, its sitting right where...

    Its the latest in console exclusives. Microsoft pays more, and the bam. Not shit animations, now exclusive to Xbox 1.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    The gameplay is fair at best. I found myself enjoying the exploring, driving around shooting people parts. But there were bugs and design choices that were annoying. Gating opening doors behind killing all the enemies was one. That works great, except when enemies fall off the platform but...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    The story feels and flows just like something I wrote in 8th grade for a fiction assignment. Seriously. Hamfisted forcing it down routes so that I can get to the next scene I had envisioned. Its bad. Don't know how to transition organicly to the next chapter? Just force some crap that makes...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    As someone else mentioned, when you finally get away from all the dialogue, horribly animated cut scenes and cringe worthy story bits the game actually starts to feel.... ok. I played through the storyline part until the 'buy to play more!' block and it was ok. Driving around in the !mako...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    So. SOme aspects of that review are true. There are a lot more 'voice options' but it feels like they don't matter. I get the opinion if I was to go back and select a different one, nothing would really change. At best, a throw away comment and then back to the main. The map, exploring...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    So, I've been playing the trial. THe game just seems, mushy. Best way to describe combat. I don't know if my graphics card can't keep up, or if there is some memory leak or my streaming or what, but the responce to my inputs was slow mushy, and it was bad. And the longer it went on, the...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    I agree. You remember games for the story. Gameplay makes it fun, but the ones that truly stand out in memory are because of the characters and story. Last of Us is perhaps the best recent example. I honestly can barely remember most the game play elements, but the characters and story are...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    At least the combat seems to look ok so far. Makes me have hope that again, the multiplayer might save the day. But the story seems tripe. I've heard it said that 'writers' are a dime a dozen and wanting to be a video game writer pretty much means you are just one of a million who can write a...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    I am wanting to like it, but man its not working. The animations seem... off. some of them. The set piece ones aren't bad, but the more dynamic ones just look off. Uncanny valley really hard. And the characers just seem.... dumb. Like, who doesn't buckle up while doing atmospheric entry in...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    How many people are still playing this? I always enjoyed it, and while I finished the Oryx raid on easy I've never done any of the raids in the latest expansion. Anyone still playing this shit regularly that would be interested in a +1 just for completion if nothing else?

    I would more argue, realize everything is disposable. The only things that really matter unless you have some unique, one of a kind item is your experience levels and recipes. Anything can be rebuilt without too much work, at least on the FoH server. The worst would be not having your place...

    Not me or Mita, we're farther up the river. But that is a member of my clan, the aforementioend Vepil and his friend are building in that area. We've seen you in the area a few times. We're pretty chill about not attacking if you at least make an attempt to communicate. The archers at the...

    Mita isn't on these boards. He's applied and is a friend of mine and is still waiting validation. Our bases (two we use, a few old ones we need to go det) aren't really growing in size. We've built the shell of what we wanted and then have been filling out the inside/upgrading them. Also...

    DOTA 2

    This game sometimes. Was trying to do a random quick normal match for fun before raid. Normal All Pick. I'm a level 77 account. Don't know my MMR in normal. But... there is no way it should put me with two lvl 1, first game ever people and one level 7. Wasted 30 mins of my life. 30 min in...

    Friendly PSA for people. If you build next to resources such that the area they spawn is 'claimed' by you, they won't spawn anymore. This includes exile camps etc.

    Use the direct add option in Steam. Go to your steam page, View -> Servers -> Favourites tab -> add server. Enter the IP address there and it will show in your favourites whenever it is up. Don't use the port. Just add the IP address and go 'find games on server' or whatever the option is...

    Mine plays music depending on where I am on the map. Also, my character grunts like a female, but any other female players I hear in the area around me grunt like men.

    Gruel is the primary. You make it with seeds and plant fibers in the cook fire. YOu can also use other foods apparently, but I haven't tried cause I worry about spoilage.

    I am going to have to go around and start cleaning up a bit soon. Each time I go on a long exploration trip, I end up making a place to stop, repair etc. Going to clean up a lil, but as we approach the city and look to start raiding it having a place to fall back too, repair and store items...

    So the latest patch seems to have broken some things. Harvesting resources is super fast now. Seems I am getting 3x what I used to get per harvest. And crafting is weird. Crafting at an armor station is giving me 2x what I have in queue, but also isn't letting me craft some items despite...

    Welp. Was enjoying the FoH server but then patched and forgot to check if the server had the patch yet or not. So, now locked out of the server. Anyone know any way to roll back a patch?

    Is the FOH server still up? Went looking for it last night and couldn't connect. So far only playing solo on my own computer, but really enjoying it so far. It seems they have a lot of placeholders and possibilties to continue expanding the game already there. So, so far I am enjoying it...

    Who thought releasing that video was a good idea? That is so cringe worthy that I have found my desire to play the game reduced and also now presuppose the female character in game is a cunt. Yay Bioware. Good marketing.

    So I played it a little today. Its buggy and limited. An Alpha obviously. It was fun for what it was. We played it multiplayer with two other friends and had a lot of fun just fucking around, building holes. Falling through the world. Building a truck and watch it react horribly (and...

    Beast Master's hawk would also be good for scouting, but again its not nearly as good as wards you can place anywhere. My best counter I've found so far to MK is to just get Viper. Hit him once with Viper's Q and he can't escape, can't jump and he usually isn't tanky enough to stand up to a...

    At some point though, you have to. Trading hits with him in lane, you will eventually have an issue. I have not enjoyed my experiences trying to farm a lane against him at all. God forbid he has a support with him who can set up a good stun. (I saw a Shadow Shaman/Monkey King lane that was...
