Give me all your crackers

G0RF posted:

Yeah. Plus they've added some free new DLC- old Battlefield 3 maps and "Night Maps" of existing maps in BF4. It's now like $40-- for a game that can provide hundreds of hours of laughter, amazement, and outright delight.

FWIW- I don't play Call of Duty games. Too arcady. The vehicular combat, squad coordination, and scale of environments makes Battlefield a far more strategic shooter. You'll spend the first couple of weeks agape at just how bloody epic the whole thing is- and then spend the rest of your hours laughing your rear end off and having a blast. (Unless you're protective of your K/D ratio...)

Though I have a pretty killer PC rig, I'd recommend playing it on the PS4 (if you've got one). Battlefield through Origin IS a pain in the rear end on PC; the multiplayer management on Playstation is a lot less hassle.

Your post, also convened me to pick it up. Its currently on sale for $19.99.

Star Citizens want to see the faces and tears of the slaves they bought being drug out of their cargo holds and sold.

BUT PVP IS BAD THOUGH, DON'T DO THAT UNLESS I WANT TO, NO TAG BACKSIES.

On the real though, I firmly believe that the star citizen community is just the elitist, childish minority of the world of warcraft community grown up and moving on to something else. They were just as toxic as when that game was in full swing.

He's right about one thing if Fart Shitizen ever came out it would be cluttered with Idrises in no time because CIG painted themselves into a corner with LTI then tried to wiggle out saying death doesn't matter anyway because insurance costs almost nothing. Their precious immersion plays a distant second fiddle to selling more jpegs and trying to appeal to everyone

I'll give Lando this he may look like the sort of motherfucker who'd stab you in a piss stinking underpass for the change in your pocket but at least he put Wulge in his place. Fucker did shut up when he was told. I bet he'll swear to not buy a jpeg in protest then break down and buy it anyway

Honestly I'd be willing to bet Wulf really despises Lando. Lando actually is part of the company while Wulf's claim to fame is pretending to be a former cyber sleuth.

Feel the rush!



I'll caution you-- prepare to get killed a lot at the lower levels. It takes quite a while to really get a feel for the sometimes huge battle maps and to unlock the weapon attachments that help up your firepower. Learn to communicate with Squadmates (you don't have to via voice if you don't want to)-- because you'll earn XP faster and it makes the game far more exciting when you can coordinate efforts with others.

It was very much worth the $100 I spent -- still playing it years later. At $20, it's an embarrassment of riches.

Also either blast through single player and choose the black guy at the end or find a save file if you got it on PC, it unlocks the M249 which i have found to be a Necessary Weapon

I hope the people who are finally asking questions as to how long it will take to earn the ships (what their "investment" is "worth") are finally realizing that spent their money on something which has no defined value. Also that they are gay and dumb.

The "kid" in the wheelchair was 18 or 19, which is young enough to have an excuse for being stupid but not an excuse for aggressive creepy internet stalking.

Also after the initial "oh gosh" reaction to him being in a wheelchair some people made good points about it being kind of bad to infantilize the disabled.

I have issues with calling men and women 18 and older kids. I guess because they can join the Army and get sent to war (thanks Obama!).

At first I couldn't believe that someone thought 1000 hours of "effective farming" was reasonable for earning a stock Idris-P but then I remembered that this is the game that a lot of Star Citizens want to play for the rest of their lives.
