  1. This is the Kickstarter thread for Kingdom Come: Deliverance. They claim to have been unable to get traditional funding. This is what they say publishers have told them: "Your game is too niche. There’s no magic. People want wizards and dragons." I'm very exited about the way they promise to approach a medieval RPG. But I'm not sure if my computer will survive a large scale battle in Cry-engine:eek:
  2. Everyone starts out with the same character, and the quests have alternate outcomes and ways to be solved. But ultimately you are following a narrative story(unlike M&B). Edit: Stretch goals. Nothing too interesting here in terms of gameplay. It would be nice having a female character with period accurate clothes instead of the usual rpg kind.
  3. They will only charge your account if and when a project is given enough pledges(Should happen tonight). I want to see more demonstrations of the physics-based combat system. It sounds like it could either be great, or ruin the game.
  4. It looks great! Will it require both Iron Front and A3 to play?

    VBS2/3 Discussion thread - the one and only

    This educational machinima series is well made and entertaining. I thought I would post it here for anyone who may have missed it. It is based on a fictional novella about counter-insurgency.

    this is a driver view ....

    Project Reality mod for BF2 gives the driver a full 360 view with three zoom settings. This gives the driver a new role as a spotter for the gunner, and the driver becomes as important as the gunner. It makes the driver position more interesting to play.
  7. The Red Cross does not like people using the Red Cross symbol in videogames. Why Bohemia went with the lesser known Red Crystal symbol I don't know, perhaps they thought it was safer. They are however all three protected symbols.

    Where is the Game?

    Most of the missions in the Workshop weigh less than 10 megabytes, and it is a one click operation to install them. I am not sure how bad your connection is, but you are missing out on a lot of good missions.

    BF2: Project Reality 1.0

    The battlefield mod has been in constant development since the minimod days. They just officially announced PR2 on the CryEngine 3, and they are working on a mod for Arma 3. Its not a hardcore realism mod, but more of a teamwork oriented pvp-mod with some realistic elements.

    Development Blog & Reveals

    With some blur to hide the zoomed background, it should be pretty good. I like it.
  11. Nobody reads the TOS, not even the developers :)

    Who first distributed ARMA 2?

    Nexway.com perhaps?
  13. Thanks to everyone making this wonderful mod. The extra life is also a nice addition to the Resistance campaign. I was waiting for the bus in Petrovice when suddenly a large herd of cows came past, holding up traffic to my amusement :) -Victor seems unable to pick up RPGs from the crate in the first attack against the resistance camp, he only has one slot for a rifle. It might be caused by him using a civillian character model. -I am also experiencing this.

    New Arma title revealed at CES? Arma Tactics?

    Sounds a bit like that flash-game made to promote A2.
  15. Yes, for now PVP seems ambitious enough.
  16. Mafia 1. Usually with a new mod, which means that every time the story takes place in a new "age". 1950's 1960's, 1980's, modern or tuner. It largely works in the campaign, and sometimes it produces some hilarious results when Ralph teaches you to break into a BMW 5-series. Its not the most respectful thing to do to the story, but I have played the game vanilla a whole lot.
  17. I really do wish we could have some sort of preload mechanic on Sprocket/BI store. Downloading 3 gigabytes at 180 kB/s is not a good launch experience.

    Chivalry Medieval/War of Roses

    Yes, the scene where he just chops the head off a guy looked like something out of Monty Python. But as they say themself, its not meant to be a simulator. Smurf: I would very much recommend checking out Mount and Blade. Its unique and the combat feels pretty good. It seems to have inspired both of these games.
  19. How would you see your controllers? I'm sure its good in a simple fps like Doom, but it might be problematic in a sim or Arma which uses the entire keyboard.

    Why the silence in marketing this game?

    Interestingly enough, there was a full page sweaty man-face ad from the Arma 2 cover at Rockpapershotgun.com just some days ago.(Perhaps due to the popularity of Dayz) I don't know who wouldn't want to buy Arma after seeing this face. You could see the core values of the Arma series: sweaty faces and guys staring blankly into space. Money well spent.
