Hunting in RDR2 is great, I just wish I didn’t feel obligated to only kill what I could carry. Every other game is like ‘hahaha you took out a whole herd of deer with a mini gun! Have a bunch of venison and skin.’ You don’t get to do that here. You can carry what, 2 large animal hides? And that’s if you have a pack horse with you.

I said come in! posted:Titanfall 2 was meant to be a direct competitor to Call of Duty, but its multiplayer never took off, and Battlefield is dead now, so EA has been trying to figure out what it wants to do with multiplayer for awhile now. They are very lucky they struck gold with Apex Legends. Wasn't it a direct competitor of Call of Duty AND Battlefield? Respawn had some real hubris to release it right between CoD and BF. There was absolutely no way it was going to succeed releasing alongside the two biggest FPS games in the world.

Far Cry 1, 2, and even 3 to some extent felt like really experimental games. But since 3, all the numbered Far Cry games have felt very cookie cutter. And it doesn’t help that the writing is terrible.

mcbexx posted:I was also basically hate-playing FC5 a while back and that one scene where they make you go through the same gauntlet over and over again, only to put a friendly NPC at the end of the last run for you to murder reflexively because you are no longer thinking about what you are doing and just want to be loving done with it almost made the game earn a tiny sliver of respect from me, but probably for the wrong reason. That was the highest high the writing in FC5 ever got. Too bad to, because that one segment was a tiny glimmer of quality what the only moment it got.

Metro Exodus looks amazing on the PS5. The only problem is, the DLC is broken and won’t download. A lot of people are having this issue, but a lot of people aren’t, and there doesn’t appear to be any quick fix.

So far my experience with the adaptive triggers has been underwhelming. It's a neat gimmick that does serve to make every gun feel differently in Metro, and it's kinda cool that they can simulate trigger creep and then the clean snap when you shoot, but I can't possibly see leaving them on in a multiplayer game. You lose a few milliseconds pushing through the trigger on your first shot, and that would be a huge disadvantage in something like CoD. So, that's my take. Single player, yes, it's cool. Multiplayer, no.

Metro is really at its best when it's not doing the open world stuff. The other Metro games were super linear, and all the open world stuff really just serves to waste your time in between killing things. 2033 and Last Light were better.

Detective No. 27 posted:Gyro aiming rules and further minimizes the gap between standard controller controls and m+kb. It's just generally a great accessibility feature too. There's no downsides to using it. It's new to me and thus scary and I automatically hate it. That said, I can't help but think if it's done right, its probably a shitload more accurate than stick. Until you freak out in a gunfight and your aim takes a massive poo poo because you moved an extra half an inch.

veni veni veni posted:I feel ya. I feel the exact same way. I'm like "wtf this should be my favorite game but I kinda hate it. Is it me? What is going on here?" I’m right there with you. It’s because they made punching things do zero damage outside of blood fist and brutal kills. Added to that is that where in 2016 brutal kills gave you health and ammo, only chainsaws give you ammo now. So before you could rage at something, dump your last 3 rounds into it, punch it until it was primed for a brutal kill, tear it in half with your bare hands, then you’re off to rip and tear the next mother fucker. Now you have to shoot until you run out of ammo, then run away from everything until you can find a weakling you can chainsaw, followed by another you can shoot just enough to set up for a brutality to regen your health (you cant punch weaklings to kill them or prime them for brutalities wtf). God help you if you clear out the trash enemies early in a big fight, because once you’re out of ammo, you’re out. Sorry for the rant. I’m going through it again on PS5 and I want to like it so much but god drat they hosed up a really good formula that kept you right in the action and what they replaced it with doesn’t.

Escobarbarian posted:The good thing about playing launch Cyberpunk on the PS5 is I got the crashes but barely any of the bugs. Had like one or two T-poses, one HUD issue, and that was kind of it. Yeah it ran like a champ at launch on PS5, minus the crashing every 45 minutes or so. I’ll probably beat it after they release a next gen version in 2022.

Seymour Buttz posted:I totally understand feeling like "I'm used to this way and I don't want to learn how to do another way". That’s where I’m at with it. I’ve been using a controller for almost 30 years and now I’m supposed to reinvent how I aim? But I want to learn, if adopting gyro aiming is how I keep up with the 12 year old CoD kids (until they all adopt it too) then I’ll give it a go. But first I want to try it out offline so my KDR doesn’t drop lower than it already is.

Shammypants posted:So basically some guys involved in making good cod (MW2) and rainbow which is cool are making a game. Is this bad? If you think the time to kill in CoD is too short, and in Battlefield it’s too long, well, the TTK in Division is about 20 times longer than the two of them put together. It did not make for fun PvP, and the PvE is debatable. So if that’s how this plays, I’m out. But if that’s not the case and it’s super reasonable with tons of gun porn and attachments and clothing options, gently caress yeah!

I need to find a decent, story driven FPS to play that I haven’t already beaten. Maybe I’ll try Far Cry 4 again, but it’s hard to play when the secret ending is truly the best, and the game I actually want to play. Edit: is there anything else like prey/doom 3? I’ve played all the dishonored games. And I’m sick to death of open worlds, which is another reason I don’t want to play far cry 4. Sammus fucked around with this message at 23:59 on Jul 19, 2021 |

acksplode posted:Have you played the Metro series yet? The first two are cast from the Half-Life mold, and then Exodus introduces some large areas that break up the linearity with open exploration, but without falling into the Ubisoft pit. I love the metro games, that linearity is what I’m looking for, exodus is the weakest one in the series to me because of those open parts. Are there any Japanese FPS games that haven’t gotten as much exposure as they deserve?

You just go around strafing and headshotting people, I guess it's kinda like halo with portals. It's quite chill and very much 'one more round'. I think there's a ps5 version around the corner too. I’ve been playing this too, it plays really, really well. My only gripe is, it seems like no one else is playing it. I’ve never found a full match

boz posted:My Review for Arena Legend Hunter Generic Title: I played it so others don't have to, and I agree with this statement. When I tried it yesterday, Trios mode was broken and could never find a match. Now, it's possible that's because its new and no one is playing. But it's a bad sign. So I tried solo. Ignoring the fact that I suck at controls, it's a bad game. You run around fighting mobs and opening chests to find randomized gear that levels you up in match so that you can hit people harder, have more health, and take less damage. You can have a bad match and go into the final circle with less than a third of the numbers other players will bring. So it has the possibility of being super unbalanced based on the drops you get.

After playing a few hours of Hell Let Loose, this game needs to be a PS+ game or it’s going to die before it’s even born. I know it’s early in the beta, so maybe a lot of people don’t have keys yet, but I haven’t seen a match anywhere close to full. Not even 50% full. And the pings are generally through the roof.

Kilometers Davis posted:just let people enjoy a thing imo I’m not enjoying it. It’s riddled with server issues. It’s a WW2 shooter and Battlefield clone that doesn’t really bring anything new to the table. I am however impressed with the map size, and maybe if the game actually had players and didn’t constantly kick everyone from the match there would be some limited fun to be found. But right now it feels like that fun is a diamond ring and it’s been lost in one of those poo poo holes in a national park. You know the ones, just a wooden shack, a simple toilet seat, and a deep hole underneath with some chemicals in it. Can you find the diamond ring?
