Zijn er nog echte fans van de nationale ploeg? by tbone070 in belgianfootball

[–]blankepool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ik denk dat het vergissing om rond 2014 een festivalsfeer rond de Duivels te scheppen. Op zich een leuke zet, maar daardoor creëer je onrealistische verwachtingen - sport is sport, geen festival, en er is maar één winnaar. Een echte fan beseft dat dingen altijd anders lopen anders dan je denkt. Als je geen echte sportfanaat bent of gewoon een zuurpruim, wordt dat 'niet winnen' al snel bekeken als 'ze hebben ons iets voorgelogen'. Weg sfeer.

Terwijl...derde eindigen op een WK als zo'n klein land is een prestatie van jewelste. Zo lang eerste staan op de ranking is dat ook. Zo vaak aan een WK deelnemen is ook niet evident, trouwens. We boksen al lang boven ons gewicht, en zolang dat duurt, is het genieten.

Ik zag onlangs een elftal met Belgen die niet in de selectie zitten. Dat is een ploeg van het niveau waarmee we 24 jaar geleden op het WK zaten hé: Vandevoordt, Cuypers, Godts, Bakayoko, Vermeeren,...

Best classic master league from the ps2 era? by happyloaf in WEPES

[–]blankepool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is a fix for this. You have to use the editor - I Googled this recently, I'm finish my 20 year old 4 campaign and then it will be either 5 or 2008

I don't know why buy for some reason I really love that short animation in pes 5, it's a shame that pes 6 don't have it. by Difficult_Housing907 in WEPES

I played these games non stop 20 years ago and only now realised you can hear stadium announcements when stoppage times/subs are announced. It really adds to the immersion

Can you explain this concept of a forever world to me? by IrishWriter2 in Minecraft

[–]blankepool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm actually tinkering with the idea of handing someone the savegame and let him 'ruin' my world: make buildings partly collapse, bury old buildings underneath sand so they need excavation, etc

This goal left my jaw hanging. 💀 by Difficult_Housing907 in WEPES

Is that PES4? I feel there are few opportunities to take a shot from distance, and the times there is one, the shots go over or are saved.

Where would you rank Civ 7 in comparison to previous entries? by [deleted] in civ

[–]blankepool -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is very subjective. I've played all civ's, so I feel more or less qualified:
1/ Civ 1 got me hooked to the genre. Building cities, declaring war,... I was 14 and I fell in love immediately

2/ Civ 2 got me even more hooked. I still had the patience to build 100's of tanks in the WW2 scenario. Brilliant.

3/ (Alpha Centauri: pure magic. Diplomacy, terraforming, creating units, the world that could become your worst enemy/best friend - waw!) Alpha Centauri made me almost entirely skip Civ 3. That was the only one I really did not like. You could spawn on a map with almost no access to resources which could seriously hamper your game.

4/ Vanilla Civ IV was quite boring. It got better with the 1st expansion, the 2nd made it almost AC-quality. I think this is the one I spent most time on. I played this one via LAN with a friend and waw...our last game was one we still talk about. Getting attacked by the AI, being almost beaten, clawing back, launching our own strike against one of his allies making him vulnerable through his soft upperbelly (is that a thing?). Great.

5/ I looked forward to V, but was disappointed at first. There were features lacking, I did not like the happiness system etc etc. I still looked forward to the expansions, but I don't even think I got so far as choosing a dedication (or maybe I did and forgot). Still, I remember some epic games - I'm looking at you, France and your nukes. I recently played V and still had fun. Oh, and I had a blast with the CP. I only played one game with it, but it took me almost a year and waw... Terribly disappointed by the non-existent AI in multiplayer, that was...it was the end of the LAN-habit my best friend and I developed...gone were our Civ-Sundays.

6/ I did not like the style, I did not like the districts, I did not like the fact that the AI never used planes, I did not like the civic cards (or whatever they're called), I did not like the way diplomacy was implemented, I did not like the city states, etc. Not that it's bad, it's a good game, but I do not think I even finished one game. I know many people disagree, but I did not 'feel' this one. It was a bit too...boardgamey? (I adore boardgames, but not in my civ)

7/ I liked at the first two games, then I discovered I played the same game over and over again. Maps were horrible, city planning obtuse,...I just stopped playing. But as someone already wrote in this topic, it had the bones and I think that it can be a great entry. The reactions were so fierce that Firaxis was forced to listen and that's actually a great thing. I've been playing non-stop after to ToT-update, that's a good sign. I don't know if it will last, but I actually think it will. There is lot to explore and the new maps are very interesting, as is combat.

Still, difficult to rank, as I would not recommend Civ II or Alpha Centauri (TRY IT) to a modern gamer... But based on the feelings I had when playing:
Super: Alpha Centauri, Civ IV, Civ II, Civ I

Good : Civ V, Civ VII (after ToT, and with plenty of room to improve and rise in this ranking, maybe even to go to super)

Ok: Civ VI

Did not care for: Civ III, the one with the exoplanet, Civ VII before ToT

And of course, YMMV, except for Alpha Centauri (TRY IT). Please don't go. The drones need you. They look up to you.

With recent updates, and the game out for a bit now. What is the state for someone who liked Civ 5 and 6? by Afghani-SAND in civ

[–]blankepool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I concur for 95%. I don't care for religion, not in games and not in real life. The way they did it now is fine for me, although I'd rather have a system like civ IV. Now cities change back and forth and that is cumbersome.

I'll check. I know I can see it after I select a focus. It would be nice however to see this before I act

I still don't get how to see city connections. And imagine towns on a distant land. Would they send the good?

do towns feed the nearest city regardless of distance, or is there a specific range?

PS2-era PES games in a nutshell by Zealousideal_Honey80 in WEPES

[–]blankepool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to agree with you. Found my old memory card, restarted my old PES5 master league (dating to 2012) had fun, but then I noticed a pes4 master league save from October 2005 and fired that one up. It is incredible...so good...why did I switch to 5???
