    Mount & Blade: Warband

    Not a fan of gunpowder mods in M&B apart from the 1860´s one where you can mess the whole wild west up. Literally only played 5 minutes of fire & sword because i sincerely could´nt stand the musketeers theme. Watching the L'Aigle video reminded me instantly of that "ewww" feeling, but then again their cities look breathtaking, might have to give it a try just for that :D
  2. Achieved by magic fairy dust! No. Each and every scalable or resting-enabled object in RO2 has to be flagged individually for those actions during map making. So you´ve got appr. 20 man hours per map to set and flesh out all those flags, to each window, trench, haystack and whatelse - Whereas BI is still joyfully sitting on their hands, not integrating a simple mod that the community has shown is possible to do in about what ... 1 week after A3´s first beta release?

    Which faction do you prefer to play as

    Don´t give a flying shit about my own faction, could be green smurfs, still no care. I prefer to play against factions where i know how to call their damn vehicles though (Russians, Americans, etc.).

    found something real cool pressing C key

    Don´t worry, that´s mostly BI´s fault. It´s not like they´d ever cared about proper manuals, tutorials, or even slightly useful training missions. I remember having read a leaked press pdf about ArmA2 (which i posted here and almost got sacked for it by placebo) where it mentioned a FCS key for tanks. Unheard of in the game up to that time, really something new and useful. Then the game was released, no word in the manual about said key. Nowhere! The functionality is still there, yet nobody knows about it. POS1 (or END?) iirc, if you´re wondering

    found something real cool pressing C key

    afaik the slow walk always had retained it´s shooting capabilities, no change since OFP at all. Whereas, OFP and Iron Front, you could shoot while charging the enmy, all over the place, but you could :D
  7. STRIFE popped up on Steam yesterday, im in a constant state of :butbut: since then. Those old games work some weird magic on me. I certainly will not be able to resist buying an(other) almost 20 years old title very very soon! edit: Only played City, blew me away!!! Full Ack on Batman titles! edit2: I also forgot one important thing: TOMB RAIDER Utterly fantastic game, brilliantly well done, it´s unfuckingbelievable!
  8. That´s a surprise rly. Welcome back! Many beers were spilled on your maps, and hopefully will be again :)

    Sarugao A3

    Holy cow, a real classic! But where´s its turquoise water? :D
  10. OFP for (expected) longevity. Morrowind for surprising "how the fuck did i not play this 3 years earlier" factor. SoldiersHeroesOfWW2 for unsurpassed shits & giggles. Many other great titles out there (GTA4 comes to mind) but those 3 above stuck the most with me.

    U.S. Army is seeking new handgun

    BI Forums taught me things like doppelganger and mishmash being perfectly well accepted english terms, but verboten? :D Ontopic: As a german i´ve never fired anything other than bottle rockets, but i´ve completely taken apart and refitted M1911, cz75 & M9 in a f2p game called world of guns, and from these three only the M1911 did´nt suck major arse fiddling around with. M9 & CZ have so many tiny little parts and springs spread all over the damn gun, i started thinking they´d only built it that way to piss me off! Go M1911!
  12. Giant Beretta´s! Don´t think i ever archived any of those, always thought the dentist section was going to last forever :(

    A vacation on Altis - or - To Limnos and back again.

    I don´t believe you! :D Fantastic pictures and comparisons. Mindboggling way of presentation also with those few spread in ingame pics, asked myself quite a few time if it was real or not!

    What is taking my fps down?

    Been like that since OFP - this series loves memory bandwith. Each single hertz you can get out of this setting increases the ammount of data your ram can shuffle around in one working step. Think of it as an (car talk) increased engine displacement, which of course equals more power. Using multiplicator does´nt affect memory bandwith, hence it won´t yield the same drastic improvements as overclocking dram directly. (take this with a pinch of salt, the last time i rly knew about stuff like that was 2003 :p)

    Dedicated M&B thread, maybe? I´d like to share more opinions :o Some time ago me & two mates started a little jousting session and that alone was tremendous fun already http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/559885232648928193/8BE0B0DA77AD3F08A886CC3F412E6700FC267A11/ http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/559885232648929318/CF0ACF3041971B00C56C851C73D193BA5F8D741F/

    M&B is equally great and dangerous, i remember buying a bundle on steam and only finding myself back to the internets 2 weeks or so later :D (has many GREAT mods aswell, check it out!) If M&B had a proper coop* we´d all be doomed! *there is a coop mod, but it restricts world travel to the host while anyone else does nothing, only works for battles afaik

    Insurgency

    My BI Forum games night senses are tingling - which is strange, they haven´t done that in ~9 years!

    Holy cow i lllllllloved that game when it was released! Might even reinstall that nasty origin bloatware again just to get my hands on it. Does it say anything about how long it´ll be free? edit: clicked the link, only Bejeweled® 3 on free offer - dunno if i was late or if it´s regional, but i´ll pass :D edit2: not too late, must be regional .. me sad :( ---- More free games: Realms of the Haunting @ indiegala Teleglitch: Die More Edition @ humblebundle

    13€ DLC, hefty price for 2 choppers

    In your example? Damn expensive ketchup! :D As for the current DLC situation: it buys you the absence of (i guess) 20 Lines of config & script mumbo jumbo that disables stuff for non payers. I agree it´s all strange. But i never like changes. I also agree when people say that we´ve come a long way since "6$ horse armor dlc" which gave you a whooping 60kb download. Can´t say i liked the old "smudge texture" approach any better, as i simply didn´t use the stuff then, which contradicts the stuff being there in the first place. edit @ thread title: It´s gonna be a frickin skycrane and a chinook right? I don´t see me needing this, can enjoy slingloads and new FM with current choppers, as is. Now if anyone loves those two features to a degree where he says "I CANNOT LIVE W/O A SKYCRAAANE" and is okay to pay 13€ ... big deal, let ´em have fun with it :)

    Firing from Vehicles feedback

    [Feedback on] -i´ve had terrible problems entering the littlebirds "fire from" position at first, using a remote controled unit. The action menu entry worked okay but it´d always boot me out once i got in. Deactivated all mods, problem persisted, tried again a few times (withouth restarting arma another time), and it suddenly worked *shrugs* -entering a "fire from" position on the littlebird with a Zeus remote-controled unit results in "laggy as hell warping helicopter ride"
