Anyone got an opinion on Habitat?

It's a fun little time waster right now but is lacking anything beyond, build space station, sometimes accidentally explode.

If you don't need it right now come back in a few months. I kickstarted it after playing the demo at PAX and while I have zero regrets, most people should wait a bit until they get some more stuff in.

On the other hand, flying through space with a mechanical t - Rex head spitting fire is pretty loving awesome. So... ymmv.

Is Company of Heroes 2 any good? Thinking of picking it up while it's on sale. I'm not that into RTS but i did like the first game.

From a few pages back:

Rookersh posted:

The campaign storyline is offensive to the point even I took offense to it ( as a guy who grew up in Poland, and enjoys bad but silly storylines like Enemy at the Gates/most CoD campaigns. Like it outright pushes the Nazi's as the good guys for fighting the Russians, when you are the Russians. ), and the balance is terrible in multiplayer.

If you just want another Company of Heroes game though, and want to send dudes to scripted deaths in scripted fights over WW2, it's campaign is alright gameplaywise. I'd honestly say wait until Ardennes Assault launches next month though, since that will be standalone, and seems to fix all the major issues Company of Heroes 2 ran into.

Everything Rookersh says is accurate and true, on the other hand I've had a lot of fun playing comp stomp with friends.

Pretty sure that booster packs start dropping once you've received all the cards from a game. You might also need to be lvl 10 but I could be making that up.

I could have sworn I had one bookmarked but is there a good site that tracks the total prices of card sets? I made a few bucks shuffling cards and gems and I was thinking about upping my steam level for those sweet sweet booster pack drops.

Also, was it ever revealed what Hatred's TOS violation was? Kind of moot now considering Gaben added them back but when literal scams like War Z were allowed to remain I'm really curious what sort of violation they could possible have had.

Picked up Mercenary Kings yesterday and started playing it today with a friend it's, okay, but I've one fairly important question. Do you ever get a gun that isn't the starter pistol or are you just playing/grinding and hoping that maybe one day you'll get a drop for a part that you might be able to use to build a gun?

Because being stuck with a crap rear end pistol and having to hope that I might maybe one day get some parts to build a something better isn't really that fun.

When I ordered my code I used a quick checkout using an email that I have a Gamestop account associated with but didn't use my login and my Order Details page was blank too.

Wait, don't go!

5v5, various ship classes, no creeps (AI minor threats), two lanes, resource point control for leveling a la Battlefield, more weapons and HP per level, a set of skills dependent on your class (the high damage, low health, high speed ship can go invisible and make a decoy of itself). It's different and pretty fun, and I think it was supposed to be F2P on leaving EA anyway, so might as well "buy" it and have it if you want to try it later.

Hmmm, well it is free, maybe I can rope some folks into trying it out with me tonight or over the weekend. Thanks.
