The Flood / Re: This is the cast for the upcoming Predator movie
« on: February 21, 2017, 01:09:47 AM »
Considering Alien: Covenant comes out this year, a new Predator movie shouldn't be much of a surprise.

they're making a new predator movie?

i didn't even know they were making a new alien movie

Not, I REPEAT NOT, Ethiopian or Indian.

Do Pho or another Asian.

I suppose I could look it up in 10 seconds on Google, but what even is this game? I haven't seen anything about it other than its name.
I'm sure you have. Did you watch Sony's E3 last year, or the year before?

YouTube

It does have a super generic name, but it looks splendid.

I missed most of E3 and I think I skipped its trailer because of its name. It looks fantastic, and I'll probably end up buying it after finishing BotW.

This might sound dumb, but I vaguely remember some sort of controversy about the protagonist not being a sexy, doe-eyed bimbo. Was that a thing?
I don't remember that.

I vaguely remember that, though it's possible it wasn't in reference to HZD.
I know Andromeda was getting a lot of shit for the female characters not looking spectacular. Maybe thinking of that?

it has less to do with female characters and more to do with bioware doing a shit job with the characters in general. male ryder looks like he's 4'9" for christ's sake.

just a reminder that a game that didn't even work scored an 85 on meta critic

if you think something is fun just say so and don't give a crap about whether or not other people think the same instead of trying to justify your opinion with meaningless meta critic scores

Initial thoughts on Halo Wars 2 are pretty disappointing but unsurprising from the beta.

I'm seriously disappointed in the unit count. HW2 has fewer units on screen than the first game and these games are a generation apart.

Spoiler
Here's HW2's max units. There's only 27 units on screen and it's already as max. These units are also the ones that take up the least amount of unit population.

Spoiler
Here's HW1 with the same units. Notice it's only taking up about 2/3rds of the population.

Spoiler
And for fun here's the max amount of units you can have in HW1. 99 individual units

the best console RTS i've ever played had a maximum of 16 units you could deploy on the battlefield at any given time

unit count is irrelevant when it comes to determining how good an RTS is

Who /viking/ here?
buff the lawbringer ubisoft
Right?
He hits hard but so does the conqueror and he has combo potential - shoulder charge into walls do not even combo into light attacks.
He has range but so do the other two poleweapon classes and both of these have far more potential mindgame and combo capabilities.
His only guaranteed combos are a parry into light attack a d a guardbreak into a strong side attack which is the basic combo for almost all other classes.

How much did you play as him thus far? What's your impression?

i've got him to the first prestige/rep/whatever they're calling it

he's a really fun and hands on class, but completely worthless against any decent peacekeeper, orochi, zerker, or nobushi since they can switch up the direction they attack from quicker than he can change his guard stance most of the time and in the event you are able to keep up their attacks are typically too quick to parry so that takes away your biggest asset since he punishes hard with the natural combos that come off of his parries.

Games coming out though will eventually be better optimized for it no?

the difference between the pro and the normal ps4 isn't enough to justify it, especially since most games so far have actually been running worse on the pro and the "4k" is worthless to anyone who doesn't have a tv or monitor to support it

you could have saved $150

i mean you'd hope so, but so far it's been the same old shit with it since launch

maybe people are going to have to wait for every game that was in the middle of development when this thing came out to do so before they start seeing the majority of titles either preform as good as or better than the normal ps4

Says you. FFXV looks BEAUTIFUL on it, especially when compared to the shitty Xbone port I had first, and getting a 60fps update this month. Also the 1TB HDD means I don't have to go out of my way for an external any time soon.

you fell for a meme

Source: NPR

But in general, executive orders are reviewed by the supreme court, and ever further, courts very rarely interfere with the legislative and executive powers to manage immigration because of the separation of those branches' power.
You're gonna have to forgive me for not accepting that as a valid source. To my knowledge, the court hasn't ruled on the actual constitutionality of his orders yet. They've just reaffirmed that there's enough evidence to suggest that they might, which justifies the temporary restriction (not invalidation) of the order. So far, literally everything I've read confirms that there are no issues with the court ruling on this.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/09/us/politics/appeals-court-trump-travel-ban.html?_r=0

These articles discuss the case in detail and cite numerous legal experts and law professors on the topic. None of them seem to argue against this court being able to do so. I'd find extremely unlikely to assume something as fundamental as court jurisdiction would be overlooked by so many experts, lawyers and courts themselves.
NPR is credible..

i think he means something other than "i head it on NPR", like something we can actually take a look at and read

I don't understand the hate for the Peacekeeper. Sure it's no Berserker, but they're still pretty fun to play as.

i think its the bleed grab

i've personally found them to be one of the easier match ups due to them being squishy

I'm also seeing a lot of people bitching about "no honor", referring to 2v1ing someone.  Like, it's actually grounds for them to not buy the game: because instead of retreating and utilizing your own teammates, it's better to invalidate the other team for not bending over for you.

I fail to see how that's any different than: "Awww man, I was playing Call of Duty and this guy kept killing me while I was shooting at his teammates.  So I sold the game."

if people want guaranteed 1v1s they should go into the 1v1 game mode

it kind of exists for a reason

The 90's were so much better

The 80's were so much better

The 70's were so much better

The 60's were so much better

The 50's were so much better

The 40's were so much better

The 30's were so much better

The 20's were so much better

The 10's were so much better

I don't think anyone would say the 20's and 30's were all that great. From around '29 till 34 or so, life really sucked.

I've seen 95% of Steam reviews complaining about Peer to Peer, but I don't understand.  I don't see the issue, especially when compared to a big P2P title (such as CoD on consoles), where the same problems are also present and most people don't give a shit.

I don't personally notice any problems with host-advantage, and everyone's bitching about how host migration is just a completely unacceptable annoyance (and it's considerably faster than most games I've played).  Maybe it's just me, but it seems like a massive echochamber.

most fighting games are p2p too and nobody has a problem with it

this isn't to say that i wouldn't prefer dedicated servers for a game like this, but for p2p the game plays extremely well
