News Comments > PlanetSide Going F2P

Plus Dust 514 looks pretty darn tempting compared to Planetside, installed yesterday and looking forward to try it. Although it seems like one could easily pay a lot more than the old premium of $60 for a single game if starting to shop for stuff

News Comments > Steam Trading Cards Beta
6. Re: Steam Trading Cards Beta May 15, 2013, 17:00 StaticRandomNumber
 
Yeah.. Steam is starting to loose its root in my opinion.. I will keep playing games on Steam I have, but I think it is time to shop around more instead of just that very convenient "Purchase" button.

At the same I just had my first encounter with their support after many many years of use and no problems, and so far I am not impressed... I get more qualified service from Comcast and AT&T, that is just sad.

Can only say you missed out on some great games, especially Morrowinds humour was great. "Boots of blinding speed", I wondered what they would do until I raced over the cliff at full speed completely blind.... great moment in gaming history for me

I was hoping for a little more like a 2D version of Rainbow Six with the planning stage, but still looks fun.

News Comments > Natural Selection 2 "Gorgeous" Update This Week
5. Re: Natural Selection 2 Feb 26, 2013, 12:35 StaticRandomNumber
 
Nice, I love NS2, it is close to the feel of the original.

I actually prefer them not making it any bigger, when I join a 20+ players game, the balance seems to go out the window.

News Comments > Aliens: Colonial Marines Trailer
19. Re: Aliens: Colonial Marines Trailer Jan 10, 2013, 15:33 StaticRandomNumber
 
That graphics in the trailer made me think of Natural Selection 2, I was expecting to see the shadow of an Onos...

The problem with Aliens for me, is that the world of it is so narrow, the surprise of discovering a person in a cocoon or seeing a chest burst only works the first time and each game seem to use that as their main set piece.

But I have enjoyed a number of books set in the Aliens universe, so I hope they can make a fantastic story happen, instead of just trying to surprise us the same way as the movies did.

Yes, they are probably taking a dead franchise that didn't have zombies in it and are now re-animating it.

News Comments > On Sale
4. Re: On Sale Dec 31, 2012, 13:55 StaticRandomNumber
 
Getting tired of these sales too, I love a good offer, and I don't mind paying a premium to get the game when it comes out or pre-release. But these sales now seem to come within less than a month of the original release and then they just keep repeating.

Maybe just a lesson learned for me... wait to buy until 1 month post release, even if the game is worth the $50-60 to me, because I will just end up feeling short changed, even when I can easily afford the game at full price.

Wow.. I was very close to buying it because of those descriptions. Steam seriously has to start vetting the products they sell.

I don't understand why we need to know iPhone and iPad is on sale, and it says "slashing", this more like "nibbing" at the price.

I got to many games now I haven't tried yet. So promised my self to at least play them before I buy anymore... but these sales makes it hard, especially old classics, which I am even less likely to actually play again.

News Comments > Natural Selection 2 Patched
6. Re: Natural Selection 2 Patched Dec 11, 2012, 19:35 StaticRandomNumber
 
I played NS1 a lot a few years back, and just started NS2, and yes it is very much the same to a large extend.

I don't care it is hard though to get going - rookie servers are great for new people, especially new to commanding, players are very understanding if the commander that jumps in upfront says 'hey I am new so don't complain', and a lot more people use mic these days, making things a lot smoother and team communication a lot better.

So I don't understand what all the negativity is about.

Sure there are bad matches now and then, when you just wish the commander had followed all your suggestions... but also had amazing games where a good commander ensured a very good game.

It's all about real teamwork, which it is hard to find in other games, and it fails at times, because people go lone wolf, but that is all part of the dynamics that make it great in my opinion.

Hmm.. so perhaps that is why it is called the Gollop chamber in the new XCOM game.

Well worth the price, the intensity and pace is way higher than L4D. There is more teamplay by design compared to L4D, so I would say well worth the money.

Terribly addictive.

Although games may be a prime candidate for resell, think about all the companies that have business software, and then of course there is all the smartphone apps.

Now that would really make for an interesting marketplace.

Thanks for the link to the map!

For using with Steam (Win7 x64), it is super easy, just following instructions on the DayZ forum.

Its five very simple steps, no need to mess with registry and other stuff

Find it funny that on Star Wars day, that someone named Obiwan Kenobi gets arrested, talk about great timing.
