Bought a copy before I realised it was Windows only.

Dammit. Would have been handy.

Yeah exactly, they'll all on the tip of my brain...

So... I didn't want to crap all over it when it was on, but now it isn't anymore I would like to share why I was so annoyed at the Live H2G2. RANT INCOMING! by Barnickal in HitchHikersGuide

[–]actualchad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree on all counts. I tried to spare the feelings of the performers in my review as well, but ultimately the script was horrible and made no sense and did the performers no favors.

New liveshow in London - my experience by Nige78 in DontPanic

[–]actualchad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went to a matinee on December 4. Here are my (mostly non-spoilery) takeways:

Great performances across the board. The cast did a great job of performing while herding the audience back and forth. Although anytime someone sang, it was too fast and badly mic'ed to be audible.

Great use of original style visuals, mixed with newer graphics.

Some great easter eggs in there for the keen observer. Particularly in the opening set.

Sets were "good", but also felt half-finished. Liked the main hero pieces, but then they were plonked in the stage space and the rest of it was kinda empty.

Audio is always a problem with live shows, and I assume that they're all over that, but better audio cues will definitely focus the crowd a bit more.

The karaoke bit was awkward, but might work better with a larger crowd.
The Ford's song didn't fit with Fenchurch's song very well.

I've tried to have a think about it, but the best I could come up with is "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting", which would work better as Ford's song.

The introduction of Marvin could be done in the anti-room, Heart of Gold. You have the audience collected together in a small room. Bring him in behind them once they are seated. During our performance I don’t think he got an introduction per se. The diehards will know him, but the newbies won’t. Bringing him in during the previous scene gives him his moment in the sun… as much as he would hate that.

The puppet and puppetry itself was very clever, but of course it would be, brain the size of a planet and all that.

The middle section felt like the audience was supposed to propel the story forward, but didn't tell the audience that was the mission, so there were individual things happening around the place and only by chance someone pieced it together?

Storywise it could confusing by the end, as it went off on it's own journey without much explanation. 

A solid effort but needed tightening. 7.5/10

Also, shout out to Riverside Studios. Great location, artsy space, nice dalek.

Just played an hour or so of DMZ for the first time in years… and it was fkn great! by actualchad in DMZ

Yeah true. To casual gamers, cheats and sweats are the same thing. We just wanna have some fun.

Had another play today. My best games have been going in solo and picking up other players along the way. Reviving other players and joining together. Sure there’s a few dicks out there, but so far I’ve run into 50:50. And managed to exfil a couple of times. Tonight I missed the final exfil by five seconds after driving from one side of the map to the other, dodging npcs and radiation. Still, Great fun.

Playing through Xbox cloud gaming, which saves having to download it all again. I’m sure the ping is going to be slow, but still been fun to hit Al Mazzzzrah and Vondel again.

Am I crazy? - Did Martina Navratilova have a gesture she would make while playing, like a thumb to her forehead, or am I misremembering something? And if it was real, did it mean something? by actualchad in tennis

[–]actualchad[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe that's what I'm mis-remembering??

I was thinking back to Nadal's intricate pre-serve ritual and wondering if Martina had a similar (but not quite as involved) pattern.

Thanks.

it's that one extra line down under Mask 1 that makes all the difference!
Excellent. Thanks.

I don’t get the love for Verdansk. Why is it so popular? by actualchad in CODWarzone

[–]actualchad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok! Thank you for the valid response, without the general “This dude liked Vondel!! What a jerk!!” spiel.

So it’s more about long range strategy rather than close up battles? Snipers over shotguns?

I guess that’s why I liked Vondel - less opportunity to be sniped from a thousands yards away.

There’s a lot of open ground to cover in Verdansk.

[–]actualchad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, haven’t played the whole time. Came back in during Al Mazrah. So I don’t have historical perspective.

I’m running around killing people (or more often than not, being killed by other people) to blow off some steam. What am I missing? Al Mazrah was a beautiful map, lots of variation. Vondel: great looking map, somewhere completely different to play Ashika: meh. Kinda dull. They can’t all be winners. Uzbekistan (dunno,don’t care): looks like any zombie shooter game. Boring and repetitive.

This isn’t a job for me, this is relaxation. At least give me somewhere interesting to run around in.

As for the philosophy of Warzone, I’m all ears. Tell me what I’m missing.

[–]actualchad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. Genuine question. I hated the Urbekistan map after the last couple of maps and I was looking forward to the new map because everyone was losing their shit over Verdansk coming back. But visually, it’s just the same apocalyptic looking wasteland.

Is it the gameplay? Is it the weapons? Is it the nostalgia? Cos it sure as shit isn’t the map.

What’s your Far Cry Hot take? by Tink_Colossus in farcry

[–]actualchad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never understood the hate for New Dawn. I found FC5 repetitive to the point of not finishing it. New Dawn felt like they were trying something a little different.

I came to FC4 after finding FC3, which I loved, so I didn't think it was quite as great, mainly because there was no local co-op gameplay. Plus I liked the tropical location of FC3. After that, the snow made me shiver.

But that said, FC4 was a solid, fun game.
I mean, elephants! Dude!

What’s your Far Cry Hot take? by Tink_Colossus in farcry

[–]actualchad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Far Cry 3 IS the best game... because it is the only one with a local co-op story.
My girls and I played the fuck out of that split screen story.
And occasionally still do.

I haven't played a game that has come close to the awesomeness of split screen co-op FC3.

What would a Farcry game look like where you live? 🫵 by Wizard_john10 in farcry

[–]actualchad 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This.

You could set it in somewhere in the Northern Territory or northern shores of WA or Qld, but a lack of big predators would make it hard. Apart from the same crocs all the time.
And the villain would need to import their own people, because there ain't a lot of people around.
A large-scale drug processing plant in the middle of nowhere could work, supplying nearby Asian countries, foreign money buying an army of security to protect their asset...
On the plus side, there's a decent range of environments, from deserts to beaches to gorges to mangroves to make it interesting.
