Play Rogue Aces if your want to feel like a bad rear end just landing a plane. The game has me making motor noises with my mouth during dogfights. The mechanics plus the hd rumble make it hard to put down.Metal Geir Skogul posted:My friend have you heard of NFC That's a lot of effort that a phone app can replace.

There's certain nfc reader apps that allow creating tags. Theoretically, can't you just save them to a folder and reuse created tags?

Is The Danger Zone on your beach party playlist? Is the originator of the saying, "I can fly, I'm pilot" enshrined on your mantle? Then Rogue Aces is for you. A truly skill-based roguelike, Aces is one of the most cinematic games you'll play this year. And not in the marketing meaning of cinematic that just stands for cut scenes and funneling you to set pieces. No, Rogue Aces nails a few mechanics and uses them to create an immersive experience. The core of the game revolves around the controls, which hone down the intracacies of flight to their essence. Besides two different ways to direct the plane itself, there's only the manual analog engine to worry about. With fully custom controls, it's easy to find a setup comfortable for you, though the game defaults to the analog sticks for both. You also have an unlimited machine gun canon, as well as a growing but limited stock of bombs and rockets. There are several tutorials that get into the small intracacies of the game, and I recommended doing all of them. After the initial offer you can find them all in the options. Once you've come to grips with piloting the airplane, there's only one mode you can even access, the campaign. The campaign looks exactly like the tutorial, and for all intents and purposes, that's exactly what it is. You will receive an objective, take off and head towards the glowing objective marker and take it out. In this mode, the main focus is to git gud. Because of how land is generated, you will crash early and often. Once you're good at it, the goal is to complete the perfect run of 100 straight missions or so. Along the way, your targets will drop temporary upgrades during missions, and every failed run adds xp to your over all level that unlocks permanent slots for random upgrades you can choose before each run. Not quite sure about how it unlocks, but at some point, I think a run of 10 completed missions in a single run will unlock it, the Frontline campaign is unlocked. This is the real game. Frontline campaign generates a map of 28 separate proc gen islands each with their own unique objective. Your mission is to reach the opposite end of the map, where a rival pilot is HQd. The game gives you 2 and a half in game days, with failures taking up 4 hours and success taking 2. Every "turn" you choose one of 3 islands and try to clear it. At the same time, the rival will close the gap between you and choose their own. As they get closer, the day will change to night, until you're fighting against them in a lighting storm. After you defeat them, they get sent back to their base to try again with another powerup(mini guns, flame thrower). The genius of Frontline is that it takes the tutorial/campaign to it's logical conclusion. In the original, every objective is marked by a flaming yellow icon that tracks their position no matter what. In Frontline, that's all gone, so for instance, every island you must capture the base, the game will give you a picture of it in the corner and you have to go put eyes on it. This combined with the procedural generation of the islands produces emergent cinematic gameplay just through being a skilled pilot. The bare bones aesthetics seem to encourage repeat plays, as the basic art bellies the difficultly, compelling you to challenge yourself as the simplicity highlights your errors. I'm not really fan of rogue likes, even necrodancer was just a novel experience. But coming to grips with Rogue Aces had been socially unhealthy. It's all I can think about. Tldr currently the best 10 bux you can spend on the eshop.

Hot tip: the more you use and destroy a weapon, the stronger that type will be when the blood moon comes. It's almost like the game is rewarding you for fighting. The best weapons are recreateable already. It's funny how most suggestions to make botw "better" involve homogenizing it to some degree of familiarity.

Jim Silly-Balls posted:I havent seen any discussion of Crazy Justice here. Its a Fortnite-alike for Switch, XBONE and PC, with crossplay. I'm thinking about backing it because I want Fortnite on the Switch and Epic apparently hates making money, so they haven't brought it over yet in what has to be the dumbest gaming decision of both 2017 and 2018 I backed it, but they are super quiet as far as updates, with even the switch build kind of looking like a shell game. Hoping it turns out alright, it as only 15 bucks. And wait for e3 and Nintendo's online service. Willing to bet things are being held back as incentive for that. Also, tencent who owns pubg makers bluehole, also created the mobile pubg and that moba valor that is already coming to switch. With how easy ue4 is, I can see the pubg mobile app coming over, especially since it uses bots, which would be perfect for short offline bursts. I really want radical heights.

There are alternate control schemes. But that logic, there are other input devices that are "easier" to use, is like the exact opposite point of flight games, especially those with any kind of simulation in them. You can rest your hands on your lap, that hasn't been an issue since the wii.

The only people that had issues on the switch were the nba playgrounds devs who wanted to drop a patch bigger than the game, and Nintendo said no. Nba2k18 is one of the biggest gaas in the industry, and it gets patches all the time.

Same deal with Enter the Gungeon, their patch addressing similar issues was submitted the day after the game came out but we weren't able to download it for about 3 weeks. I imagine bigger developers have more leverage though, certainly That's how patches work. The big publishes have more people to make sure patches won't break something else. Indies don't, so they have to keep resubmitting. This is nintendo making sure the patch works, not prioritizing based on infamy. Nintendo has shown they need/want Indies more than 3rd party. Many small indie games put out patches really quick, sometimes just for a better icon. bushisms.txt fucked around with this message at 16:41 on Apr 23, 2018 |

Sky Rogue is really good but it's aesthetic is confusing. It plays like a military sim, but the aesthetics scream arcade fast action, so it takes a second for the pacing and mechanics to sink in. It has a similar loop to rogue aces where landing on your base is a thing, though a little less skill based than rogue aces' rendition. There's deadzone settings option that is a must for the danger zone controls, but it only unlocks after you complete the tutorial. There's currently an issue where your game will hardlock during loading screens. Happens after a few rounds. They've already submitted a patch, so hopefully it's not too hampering. Luckily, the game starts so quick from the home screen. Just got doom as well or I'd dig in more. Elman posted:Has anyone noticed that their joycons started vibrating harder a while ago?

The first time I locked on to someone with the danger zone controls and shot them down felt incredibly good. Don't miss out on sky rogue y'all. I'd be playing it more, but I'm currently being humbled by doom. I'm sad it took me this long to experience this.

Kvlt! posted:I really want to play Doom but I can't justify spending $60 on what I hear is a ten-hour campaign. How's the multiplayer? I promise I felt the same way. I got it used at GameStop so you might get lucky. But i promise it's worth what ever you get it for. There's a small but it seems dedicated multiplayer group. They populate the team and deathmatch lists. Got close to full games. The game is just a joy to play, I kind of like the multiplayer more for really feeding the need to rip and tear without having to navigate a story. Single player is just starting to pick up, just got the assault rifle, but with more multiplayer time than single, I'll say it'll be awhile before I finish it. This is all predicated on you liking gyro aiming, as if you're playing with sticks, I imagine it's not nearly as fluid or fun. Get this game.
