F-F-F-F-F-FUTURE!?

Back to the Future?

Is there any other good online fps game where I can always find random people to play with at online except COD and BF ? I spend half an hour just to find a fucking game in NS!

Then you're really doing something wrong .

No , I join QUICKMATCH but in 9 out of 10 games it joins to empty server

Just use the server browser, quickmatch options are rubbish!

Chyros, on 29 May 2013 - 15:05, said:

I use that aswell, there is literally 0 and if I am lucky 1 person in dozens of empty servers Perhaps majority of players are European so my timezone not suitable with theirs

Possible but unlikely, we can join East Coast American servers is we want.

(which does not lead to nearly as much trolling as one would hope, we found out)

The player count is pretty low sometimes.

It's because the game is quite hard to learn and that it takes quite a beefy computer to run it.

I think it might have to do with the fact that not so many people have bought it, either

Shame, such a shame, think I kinda lost myself again.

Yeah, game far from appealing and not polished enough, though it is fun...

I had totally forgotten how awful the combat system in the Witcher was :|

And I had forgotten ho they fixed that in The Witcher 2, but messed up the remaining elements |:

That's what they get for using the Neverwinter Nights engine.

CJ, on 30 May 2013 - 00:12, said:

How?

I think they improved just about everything in W2. You need to play on Dark Mode to get the most out of it, though.

Well here are a few problems I found with it :
The weight limit : you don't know what to pick up and what to leave anymore.
You're unable to drink potions on the go, now you might argue it provides a more tactical gameplay where you're supposed to plan everything ahead, but in the end all it does is force you to die when you forget to use that Swallow potion and then have to reload a save.
The dice game is totally crappy, what with the dice being unreadable, the fact that you automatically lose if a dice rolls out of the table, and the whole thing being obviously rigged.
The brawls becoming a stupid QTE, as well as the arm wrestling. So basically if you want to make some money, you'll pretty much have to do quests, otherwise you're going to get bored very quickly.
The inventory management is not intuitive, and has one of the worst UI's I've seen in a modern RPG. Ironically, I found it easier to use with an xbox controller than with the mouse. In fact, pretty much every single UI in the game became worse :|

Indeed it is, what is it with clicking to an exact point in the screen to get loot? They should've just make looting with a shortcut not trying to click a tiny button to get shitty things I get Skyrim right after Witcher 2 and Skyrim superior in every aspect, UI is simple , not confusing or frustrating, just the way it should be, perhaps too simple for a RPG game but still saves a lot of time when you attempt to manage items.

Try the SkyUI mod for Skyrim if you ever play it again, makes the inventory and magic menus worthy of an RPG, with a filter, search and sort options. Can't play without it anymore, personally.

Just bought it ffs and liked it, of course I'll

XD!

Chyros, I see you lurking below, YOUR MOTHER wont let you post here?
.....
And what about Rising Storm? I stopped playing WW2 themed games long ago after spending hundreds of hours just to realize all of them almost the same shit, I don't want to get dragged into same situation again XD

Skyrim's UI was beyond awful. :|

Alias, on 30 May 2013 - 08:44, said:

But simple, it is not appealing but very handy, you don't need to spend three minutes just to change outfit or weapon Awful part of Skyrim is ELFS! They are supposed to look elegant and beautiful, not ugly as fuck! Dark Elfs literally look like a Chinese zombie!

Eh, didn't know you only just got it now. D:!

Alias, on 30 May 2013 - 08:44, said:

Agreed, the default UI was a pain in the behind, especially when you're trying to click on the different submenus of the inventory. Ah, the joys of having to talk to the same merchant 7 times in a row because the shop menu closes if you don't click on the right pixel.

General, on 30 May 2013 - 08:21, said:

RS is... not my kind of game . You need to be pretty hardcore to like it .

Chyros, on 30 May 2013 - 09:52, said:

*Scratches the idea of getting it* If you say it is hardcore then there is no way I could play it, I take my time when playing FPS games There is some positive talk about the beta for now, and the word KATANA looks appealing to me
