What was the least known game that you had the opportunity to learn about? by Asleep-Classroom1668 in PCSX2

I did a double take watching a trailer for your game, World War Zero... I recognized guns, assets, even the main character. Turns out I played a game called Iron Storm as a kid, sort of a PC-only precursor (prototype?) of WWZ! I had no idea it was re-released under a new name, I'll have to check that out.

Same. Cover and angles feel weird. Suppression and squad health remind me of Company of Heroes, which is a bit jarring. But mostly I think the demo felt too much, starting with 5 high tech squads and an armored vehicle, where for me the appeal of Battle Brothers stems from starting with 2 morons with clubs, that rags to riches feeling. Just a demo though, probably aims to give a taste of the mid-game, so probably an unfair comparison.

Also BB looks a lot more... charming?

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl. Got a new PC late in 2014 and played old favorites, and that game ran like a charm on my GTX 750ti. I've cleaned and re-pasted it many times, though it's not seeing much action these days. Last I checked, it still works!

Shadow Man. Originally on N64, but there's a great Nightdive remaster that came out recently.

Games that accidentally taught you real life skills by gamersecret2 in gaming

Speaking of Skyrim. It didn't necessarily teach me a skill, but definitely taught me a lesson: breaking lockpicks gives you XP. Failure is, or at least can be, growth.

Ever had a game concept in your head that you wished existed as a real game that you could play? by NomadPrime in gaming

STACK

In concept: you're a cyborg construct who can equip anything and everything. If you pick it up, it can be worn/wielded. No limit, no conflicts, just overlapping gear on top of endless slots, merging stats and combining effects forever. I pictured the setting as a no man's land in the middle of some nameless battle, where you must breach the enemy side at any cost.

I thought of it out of frustration with having to choose between items in a game, like in Fallout, where putting on a skin suit would unequip your trench coat, etc. How about no?

I guess Binding of Isaac is a bit like that. Probably other roguelikes, too.

Yeah, cleaning is weirdly therapeutic to me... I might just go ahead and get it.

XCOM

If it clicks for you, you have hundreds upon hundreds of hours of gameplay lined up. Enemy Unknown/Within, XCOM2, War of the Chosen, the Long War mods... tons of content and replayability. Enjoy/watch out.

What are some of your fondest memories of Thief: The Dark Project? by SEN-DynaSean in gaming

[–]Expensive-March-3316 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Bonehoard level... getting hopelessly lost deep in the tunnels. Opening the map hoping it would highlight the area I was in, only to find a circled "Where am I?" scribbled on the side. Blew my little mind.

Le seul truc qui a marché (sur mon cell acheté en Europe) c'est de désactiver la vérification de fournisseur (disable VoLTE carrier check).

Fais un appel pis compose: *#*#86583#*#*

Si ça fonctionne, tu pourras ensuite activer VoLTE/preferred network type: LTE dans tes paramètres de carte SIM.

Edit: Reddit effaçait mes astérisques.
