43,000 Zombies until Genocide

Regarding the first level of Deus Ex: Ignore Paul completely. Just start the map and run past him as fast as you can. He won't engage speech with you, but he will chase you around the level trying to get your attention. If any enemy attempts to shoot you, he'll go to town on them with plasma gun until he kills them all.

If you let Paul kill every enemy, Manderley will thank you for taking the care not to kill everyone.

B-but rocket launcher.

I went through the entire first level without killing a damn thing and didn't get shit for it. The next level I balanced things out by gibbing the shit out of some orphaned kid who had just told me the way into the rebel base. I think by Peter Molyneux's standards that makes me about "neutral".

NOBODY ASKED YOU!

Started playing Sins of a Solar Empire again.

Game has an incredible level of detail that you will rarely ever see unless you just want to watch a battle unfold.

There really is no point to trying to micro-manage combat, most ships priority target what they are good against, and there is no real way to hide or evade against particular ships. It's just a matter of who has the most ships, and what combination of ships.

Despite that, I still find it an awful lot of fun to play. Like GalCiv 2, they drop patches pretty often, and along with bugfixes there tends to be minor content add-ons. At least that is how the 1.1 patch that is coming soon appears to be.

Bonesaw can be frustrating.

Fuck you Serial Killer X! I chased you around the whole goddamn game beating drug addicts and weird figments of my imagination to death with a ~~board with bolts in it~~ ~~board with nails in it~~ ~~sign~~ ~~steam pipe~~ ~~gas pipe~~ ~~large pipe~~ ~~small pipe~~ ~~board that is also on fire~~ goddamn fire axe, why am I fighting this thing that I'm ripping and tearing piece by piece!?

GODDAMN THERE GOES ITS JAW!

Screw Condemned, I'mma go play Armored Core 4.

I really want to play AC4. I really do. However, I can't seem to complete the chapter one missions. :/

The AC series is like Guitar Hero in that every succesive game in the series is for some reason EVEN HARDER than the last one. I gave up at the second AC3 expansion because at that point the degree to which the computer cheats to win was no longer surmountable by my pathetic human reflexes!

Kazz · « **Reply #469 on:** July 08, 2008, 08:25:15 AM »

i sucked at armored core because the missions cost a lot of damned money to complete

what kind of game punishes you for going through the campaign!

Doom · « **Reply #470 on:** July 08, 2008, 09:13:40 AM »

I quit sometime in AC2's Expansion Pack where they expect you to defeat three fully-loaded enemy mechs who are ALL using perfect homing weapons.

Brentai · « **Reply #471 on:** July 08, 2008, 10:24:06 AM »

360 apparently dropping in price this Sunday.

Coincides nicely with my beginning to dabble in XNA.

Guess what I'm getting for Christmas in July!

A video of Animal Gynecology?

I'm not opening any mail from Washington for a while.

A² · « **Reply #474 on:** July 08, 2008, 11:00:47 AM »

I'm not in Washington anymore.

Brentai · « **Reply #475 on:** July 08, 2008, 11:34:09 AM »

OH GOD IT COULD COME FROM ANYWHERE

Alex · « **Reply #476 on:** July 08, 2008, 02:39:33 PM »

I think the issue with AC is that every successive game assumes you played the previous and half an AC or three in the wings ready to go.

At least Last Raven was like that from the start.

If the game ever pisses me off enough, gameshark.

Except in Last Raven where you suffer battle damage and die anyway if your core part explodes.

...Well played, Armored Core. Well played.

McDohl · « **Reply #477 on:** July 08, 2008, 03:26:47 PM »

So, for a guy who has had no previous AC experience, how should I try to get in to AC4?

Norondor · « **Reply #478 on:** July 08, 2008, 03:56:15 PM »

I would think the implication from the last couple posts would be "don't."

On working with the Japanese: “If you don’t deliver exactly what you specified, they kill you.”

This is true.
