I want the Cubs to win simply because they haven't in over 100 years. They should get it.

I'm glad this actually feels like a damn debate so far. Not just obnoxious insults left and right.
I'm also ready for the online polls to pop up and people say Pence won, and Psu and Second Class argue about it for 4 pages. 3276

I'm just glad PC got rid of that stupid web browser game search.conquest is going back to tickets where kills = contributing to the ticket. Though it's unclear how if 1 kill = 1 ticket, or a percentage. BUT you won't lose that ticket until you're in the respawn screen, so medic's are important again. 3277

Fair enough.I don't really either, but there are circumstances where scummy things need to happen in order for two people to end up together. I'm not siding with Jive's friend, I'd never do something like what he's doing, but at the risk of sounding like an ass, there's always a possibility that it'd be for the best. Incredibly unlikely, but hypothetically possible.That's pretty lame on his part.I don't buy into that saying. 3282

What kinda shit is this? Especially considering it's a satirical joke over one of the worst dictators that's turned Turkey from one of the few, if only Secular middle eastern government, into another ME shit hole. Maybe I can more cuz American and "muh freedom" or something, but this is fucking stupid. 3283
Gaming / Re: How do you guys feel about voiced vs. silent protagonists?« on: October 04, 2016, 11:53:55 AM »It was more than just the protag since the "new" feeling of the enemies was gone. Enemies lose the scare factor once you know how to deal with em. Same with the mysterious factor with the lore.I have no preference, save that previously silent protagonists shouldn't speak in subsequent appearances. My one exception is Issac Clarke, who got 10x better after he started getting lines.I dunno. I feel like voiced Isaac was one of the big changes in atmosphere that I didn't really care for with DS2 3284

Clearly the same thing. 3287
Gaming / Re: Battlefield 1« on: October 02, 2016, 09:18:16 PM »Yeah the flamethrower thing is a popular misconception due to Saving Private Ryan making it very popular that it blows up. In reality, it just leaks out.Yeah but if something is too realistic, people will bitch (and rightfully so). Same if its too arcade like. I'm pretty sure everyone knows running around in the open and shooting people, and shooting flamethrower tanks won't make them explode (thanks Hollywood).I know it's silly shooting cars make them explode. But I actually thought shooting the fuel tank to a flamethrower would ignite it. Oh well lol. And ARMA is a niche game, obviously. It's made for those who enjoy the gameplay. They don't care about selling millions. 3288

I'm a little sick of the silent protag thing. I think it's incredibly lazy almost every time to say "this is you". Unless you can create them from 100% scratch and then do to them your own kinda RP aspects, it's bad. So people like Gordon Freeman and Master Chef? No.

But the atmosphere and sound effects are the main selling point, along with the characters (the single player). 3292

The SP intro one is amazing too. I reallllly need to get this on launch day. The narrative looks so damn strong, which astounds me considering DICE only really made a decent campaign with BC2.
Maybe they needed a historical war to throw a tragedy spin on it. 3297
Gaming / Re: Battlefield 1« on: October 01, 2016, 09:28:55 PM »
Wow. That's all I can say. I hope the narrative in this SP transcends just "good vs bad", because WW1 was so much more complicated than WW2, and if you ask me, much more tragic in a way.

That, and seeing world powers clash in ancient times when battles involved so much strategy and tactics on the battlefield, and it was so close and personal. Now a days battles are just about airstrikes and artillery mainly. It's not nearly as interesting.I'm not. I'm a massive history nerd and never knew that, fuck you. I hate you.seems a lot of people here are history nerds It's a reason I enjoy Total War games so much. You can do the Hammer & Anvil tactics like Alexander the Great, and hit and run tactics like Genghis Khan. Even faint retreat and ambush the enemy like Sun Tsu. It's all fantastic to me. 3299

I hate you.TBH I always thought the Iranians just crawled out of a hole in the ground after the Sassanid Empire fell.Yeah same here. It's actually wayyyyy cooler that Iran has always been around and continuously for centuries, been a massive power in some form or another. I'm kinda glad it didn't poof away like the Byzantines or Romans, simply because of the rich history it has. That's some China tier levels there. Or the Danes as well. 3300

Agreed. Extended Ending was a good closure though. Especially the destroy ending, which I think is the canon one. |
