oh yeah that was the part.
I actually crouched at the exact same spot as that guy did, cowering in fear

I finshed in. very good.
At the release of portal 2 the latest patch ads in a small campaign called Justine. Where you have to complete some puzzles. The catch is you die, and the game throws you back to windows. So no save points. haha

The mechanics are so simple: no means of active combat or defense, not being able to look at the baddies, light being helpful and hindering. Yet the impact on the gameplay and atmosphere is so strong, it amazes me.
yup. Clean HUD also ads to the realism. Would feel a lot less like i was there if there would be a health bar and ammo counter in the corner of my eyes.Sisco wrote:

I got killed by that monster thing for the first time.
On a side note, I am finally starting to piece the story together.
I just went down the elevator and into the dungeons, but im all out of oil and tinderboxes so the dungeons are almost impossible to get through. And then that monster was there and chased me all the way back and i though i lost it when i closed the door, but as soon as i turned to close it properly (i did a bit too quick when i got through) it was there and started smacking me.
I did manage to chuck a rock at it though. Like a boss.

Ruse can be a blast sometime. Watch from 1:20 on -
Wow.
That looked awesome, too. Looks like it's improved from the beta.

I haven't run in in quite awhile, and haven't played it enough to attest for balance changes. I can say that performance has improved a ton, and that this game just about runs smoothly on medium settings for the 9600M GT and runs perfectly on the office AMD 4650 (if I recall correctly; and it's even AGP).
About to give Champs Online a shot.
ruse is terrible lol. sure it was fun to play with friends for a while but afterall it is too fucking slow. And air rapes way too much.

Similar to so many other games like this, I'm having a blast in the character creator. It was worth the download just for that, if it turns out I can't stand the gameplay.
I was working on a semi-serious character when the game crashed while alt-tabbing. It wouldn't be hard to recreate, but I didn't feel like it. Instead, I built some WH40K chaos-inspired sort of thingy.unnamednewbie13 wrote:

Left: new (soldier); Right: old (archer)
Yeah, the Dr. Horrible goggles look pretty nifty. No idea what I was thinking while I made the one on the left, but the one on the right started as a Foot Clan ninja, turned into solid snake and then became some weird random flying ninja. Good news is, gameplay isn't that bad, and I actually prefer the land combat over Star Trek Online's.
The character creator is pretty detailed, but not detailed enough to create a proper Harvey Birdman. There are some pretty decent 40k space marines out there, though.
playing around with feet and sleeves. decided to go with least-amount-of-skin-showing before the game crashed
apb is fun.

^lol...
I've been having way too much fun with the character editor.
The character creator is pretty good but the game itself is fairly shit. Lost count of how many super saiyan Gokus I saw running around. If you had Champions Online's character creation in DCU Online you'd have a pretty good superhero game.

Think I finalized this guy, at least. Two tonfa and a bow (for looks, until I can change weapons) and a long axe to start with. Going to use him for melee and the corrupted 'sister of battle' for ranged. I'm liking the gameplay so far and have seen an insane amount of design variety, at least in the tutorial zone. Could be the influx of new players, though.
e: BLAH. 4'11" my ass. Legs pumped him up about a foot. Haven't progressed very far in the tutorial yet, so I'll probably just recreate rather than waste resources on a revamp.
Yeh I didnt play it when it was a 'proper' game but picked it up when it went f2p and have been enjoying it quite a bit. Also, havent had to spend a cent.

The variety of characters you see running/flying/swinging/teleporting around is easily the strongest part of the game. I quite enjoyed levelling to 40 whenever it came out (naturally there was nothing really to do after that, like any new MMO in the last 5 years).unnamednewbie13 wrote:

The skill and stat system I thought was really good as well. You (at least if you pay) have the ability to pick whatever skills you want and the super stat system is far better than the usual hard coded stats - your 'super stat' is the stat that buffs your damage/healing etc, so it isnt just melee needs might/strength, ranged needs agility etc like most MMOs.
Also liked that they really upped the number of mobs you could kill at once. There are a couple of nemesis (and I assume others) missions where you get swarmed by weak henchmen type enemies and really get to feel like a superhero. Nemesis system is also really good.
In the end though it is still a EQ/WoW MMO, cant wait till the whole skillbar/autoattack stuff dies out. Not holding my breath though because most MMO players have a huge QQ if it is any harder than auto attack, 1, 2, 3 repeat.
I liked DC Universe Online. The character creator was pretty shit but the gameplay was good and the combat was fun. That's my biggest issue with MMOs, the combat isn't actually fun.
