What are you playing?

Purchased that when if first came out. I think I got the collectors edition in the box.

And, as many, I still play that every so often. Still have the original disk and retail package.

Never had this happen before though..

 

[stinger608]

Wow, that is very weird @Recon-UK !!

I take it you were not able to move out of there?

Space Engineers still has problems with netcode, unfortunately. It's playable but connected players frequently pause for a second.

That don't bother me. I don't do multi player mode anyways.

Now, with talk about HL2, I'm installing it.

When I redid Steam on a secondary drive I didn't install it. Jeez, that's been about a year ago. Time to play again.

Yup first time seeing it

I screwed up my underground area in 7 days to die again. This time I dug a column out 5 blocks high as far as I wanted my new room to be (10 blocks long, I believe). I placed cobblestone ceiling and walls as I went. Things were going well and I think I had a fairly sturdy area... until the whole thing collapsed in on me again.

I noticed this time though, where the ground on top of me started to collapse was... thinner than the ground where I started digging. Unfortunately it started a chain reaction of sorts and all my cobblestone stuff fell down as well. Interestingly, however, I discovered that I hadn't dug down anywhere close to the bedrock. I merely found a large stone slab before. I also found some clay during my digging... around a good 10 blocks under the surface of the burnt forest. I never thought I'd find things like that underground.

I'm not sure why my underground collapsed though... the first time I thought I made too big of a hole underground with no support, so it all fell in. This time, I had some support, but... I still wound up with a massive square hole outside my house.

Playing Star Trek. This is the 2012 game based on the 2009 reboot of the series. It is...surprisingly good! It takes place after the 2009 movie, and is well written as well as well-acted. The whole cast contributes their voices and likenesses. It really feels like another Star Trek movie. Not great, but good fun.

Yes, you get to do personal flying, in the air and in space, several times!

RIP Anton!

EDIT: just finished. Not bad money spent: 13 hours of game time.

xD everytime I see Zachary Quinto I just think of Sylar from Heroes who opened skulls to take other people's abilities.

I crashed my PC with 7 days to die. I kinda decided to restart in a spectacular way. I blew up my house with TNT. I then entered creative mode and started blowing up everything else with TNT. I then cheated/tested hard (apparantly, you can also add perks by cheating, not just grindy skills like Construction Tools) and raised my skills to astronomical levels, setting the time to day 700 feral horde... blowing up more stuff with TNT...

I guess at some point the game had enough and crashed. Windows was telling me I was out of memory. Following the prompt, I shut down the game and tried to launch Chrome. It crashed instantly. Guess I blew up more than houses and mountains with that TNT...

Remember Me. Just pure awesomeness.

The main character is also good looking, especially from behind

Playing some Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor this week. I'm not super into the game even though I've spent around 8.5 hours in it. I'm playing it mostly just to finish my backlog. Honestly, I think this game could benefit more from the narrative and some variations besides just almost non-stop fighting. The combat is pretty good but gets stale way too quickly in my opinion. So far, to me this game seems to be like Borderlands but with greater story and scripts. It's just marking out one place on the map and then fighting it out till it's over. I mean sure there are some stealth involve, but it doesn't seem like the game was designed with stealth in mind but just to check features from we've seen other AAA games done these past couple of years.

Been playing some Path of Exile, trying to get into it but it's just overwhelming at times.

I usually play H1Z1 King of the Kill, but had to take a break from that game as the current bugs and lagging China Numba 1s were driving me crazy.

Finally got rank 25 in Overwatch this week even though I had it since launch, so I played a game of rank and haven't touched it since. lmao

 

[EzioAs]

Wow...
Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor was a huge letdown at the end. I was really expecting something better than what I got based on the raving reviews and articles about the game. It's not too bad though, at least I got it at a pretty cheap price and had some fun and challenge in certain parts of the game.

Spoiler

They could've at least gave us an epic boss fight against the Black Hand. The best fight in this game turns out to be against the Hammer of Sauron which is in the middle part of the game.

I'll probably Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones sometime this week. At least Shadow of Mordor wasn't terribly long and I can start playing other games much quicker.

The gameplay in SoM is what is great, not the story.


Been playing Assassin's Creed Chronicles, Batman: Arkham Knight, and The Division.

 

[EzioAs]

@FordGT90Concept I have a different perspective on that. I think the story and the narrative was stronger and with some more focus and work on that part and less combat and less repetitive missions, it probably would've been a more immersive and enjoyable game. That's my take, though.

 

[rtwjunkie]

The gameplay in SoM is what is great, not the story.

I've got to agree. Combat was superbly done, once you grasped all the nuances. For me, the learning curve was steep in the beginning though, making me quit the game for 6 months before playing again. Very smooth and fluid, among the best. Climbing and jumping are excellent as well, with none of the accidentally jumping the wrong direction or hanging onto a 3 foot wall like happens with annoying frequency in AC games. Overall, very satisfying, with even some decent AI that will take advantage of numbers and try to surround you.

Although the story was very good, It could have been improved. Also, I noticed an achievement I didn't get, for actually defeating Sauron in Mordor. How the EFF do I do that? All I got was the Black Hand, and then end of game.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

Might be the DLC where you play as the elf. That's a precursor to the main game.

Ahhh, yes, I did not play that, even tho I have it.

 

[EzioAs]

@rtwjunkie. I didn't even get any achievements in SoM. Steam overlay doesn't even work for this game.

Very strange, it worked for me.

Maybe you've got a borked Steam? Or you turned it off for SoM?
