I know this is the bone thread but it sort of counts, does the Windows 10 store ever have sales? I expected one at E3 like Sony but only saw Gears of War for 30 bucks.

I didn't have a real problem with MCC any time I was playing it besides some lag and also nobody choosing anything but Halo 2.

This is for the 360, but I went back through my download history to grab a few things I wanted to replay, and I noticed it was light. Super light. Missing half the things I ever had light. Is it just pulling things out of the list or what? I know for a fact I've played Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light but my download history says I never bought it. e: Also since I got around to playing it Fable Anniversary is loving awful RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 00:12 on Aug 22, 2017 |

TheScott2K posted:There have been cases of things disappearing from people's purchase history that they've had to solve by making a phone call. Suggest checking your gmail archive for the email confirmation when you bought it. Another possibility: maybe you got it on Steam? No, I have the 360 cheevos to prove it. It looks like I'm missing most of it after like 2012. I may need to make a call later then. I didn't plan on playing most of those games again but there were a few I was going to grab and some aren't on the store anymore.

quote:Did somebody else buy digital games on your 360? If they bought them on your console you'd have been able to play them with your account even though they're not yours. Almost like the "primary console" thing of this gen but not quite. Might be that and I simply didn't remember then. Though I thought I was the only one on the console for some of these like Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light. On the plus side, I still have Yaris.

Forcing someone to be your robot slave if you want to play 3-player in the campaign in Gears 5 is stupid as hell but I can't stop laughing at it Especially since half the enemies can just slap it out of the sky and kill it immediately

It really is impressive how badly 343 botched the Halo franchise and it's also super obvious they didn't really get what Bungie was doing with Halo 1-3 thematically, which is amazing because of how blatantly obvious the games are about it. Relatedly did you know the Spartan Laser in-game is also known as the Grindell/Galilean Rifle? You know, to really drive the point home?

WattsvilleBlues posted:I know next to nothing about Halo, what are its themes? It's both pro-religion/faith, as a general concept, and anti-evangelical, which is uncommon at best in America (though it is also boner-poppingly pro-military). It also does not actually give a poo poo about America - most of the fighting on Earth is in Africa, and all you really see or hear of the US is if you glance at Earth from space in 2 and 3 you can see the east coast burning. It takes heavy inspiration (pretty much blatant theft acutally) from Aliens and the Colonial Marines so the soldiers are all oorah troops but in-game it's actually a truly universal force. Basically with that Spartan Laser weapon I mentioned, at the end of Halo 3, after breaking the Covenant (and after the rebelling alien forces join with humanity against the zealots, whose main force are the savage-ape like gas-guzzling--and-iron-shooting monsters, the Brutes), the man named John literally shoots the Divine Spark with the weapon called the Galilean on the Ark of God before going on to shatter the Halo, the proof of divinity, to turn back God's Flood. Master Chief is a Christ figure but the initial trilogy is more concerned with Christ as a human man, which is also interesting as little really is. The game is the least subtle thing on Earth and 343 missed it entirely. quote:A lot of people here rip on the single player, but I think the focus on that is completely wrong. It's the multiplayer that 343 truly botched hardcore. Turning the game into Call of Duty was a horrible call. Halo no longer stood out from everything else, meaning its multiplayer community tanked very quickly once Halo 4 came out. Poor deathmatch map design, removing most if not all of the weapon placement around maps, and giving it Call of Duty like time to kill, completely ruined what made Halo exciting. The multiplayer was pretty okay in 4 but I couldn't be bothered with 5's, I just think it's extra obvious how little they really cared or focused on what the series really was with the themes. There's still some Halo in there in multi at the least. quote:From what I heard about the development of the Halo series, Bungie do not know anything about its themes either. lmao It's not the most consistent thing either but there's a lot there to unpack and its interesting to see how it both evolved them then threw them away. quote:Even before that, 343 hosed up the Reach multiplayer when they took it over. I used to play a ton of Reach with my roommates at the time, then suddenly one day we couldn't go into most of the playlists-including basic poo poo like Slayer and big team battle-split screen unless they had their own Live gold accounts. We could only get into a rotating selection of grab bag playlists for wacky custom modes. It sucked rear end. Reach multi instantly turned to dogshit when they took over and made the new rulesets that were just MLG esport variants but half-assedly so so nobody was happy with it.

quote:The new flight sim has 1-3cm resolution of object accuracy across the ground for the entire world. They created an AI to map trees, grass, dirt, roads, and street objects using their bing mapping data and a bunch of deep learning. A typical lawn is like a million rendered blades of grass, and every forest has a fairly accurate representation of where the trees are in real life. That seems like overkill

BonoMan posted:Horizon 4 as weirdly become my most played game. I was never a driving guy but it's just beautiful (on the X at least) and fun as hell to gently caress around in. I'm like level 122 right now I think. The PC version lets you turn on damage modeling; the cosmetics get really beat to poo poo but physically they just start listing and going slower. The F2P one had your tires burst if you hosed up though lol

What the gently caress is Gears 5 doing with its matchmaking Teams are five players, but you can only bring a party of 3 into quickplay. You can bring any number into ranked and then lose because probably the other team had a full party. Also it takes loving forever. Just let me bring four or five people into the gently caress Around mode! RBA Starblade fucked around with this message at 19:21 on Nov 21, 2019 |

Cojawfee posted:I installed it and tried out a a level where I built a track over to a station but then I forgot to change the direction on a junction and the train went of the tracks and I couldn't find an option to put the train back on the track. One menu has a reset button that's greyed out. And there's a reset level option, but I think that just deletes all the track. Also, pressing B on the pause menu (you know, to go back to the game) instead opens their twitter page. No thanks. Exactly my experience lol
