can you play BF1 and BFV with bots? or is that not an option? i like playing with bots, as strange as it sounds i just enjoy it. its how i always do my multiplayer games when the option is there, lol
Like the glory days of BF 1942/2142. Easy Red 2 has bots too, bit more difficult than the other 2 though.

Hope you figure it out soon.

Finally managed to pick a starting location directly next to a high level car drop(!) and cycle through most of the top tier vehicles eliminating other players. Finished second due to acquiring Bugatti at last second in hilly wooded location only to get routed up a snow covered mountain.

I did. Turns out I had to remove some files from the my documents/game folder and make sure to put the wheel in compatibility mode before you start the game.

I used to just play Counter Strike: Source with bots. I grew tired of the asshats that would run around with AWP as they jumped around like a jack rabbit and taking people out with headshots. I liked the gameplay, but not the morons that always wanted to cheat so I found it more entertaining to run around and play with bots.

Don't get me wrong, sometimes I'd play with actual people and a few times I'd run the boards and it would appear like I was cheating, but the only weapons I tend to excel with in the map was the dual pistols that terrorists used and with the FNP90. I sucked with pretty much every other weapon type. Generally I'd just enjoy the game with bots. So, it's not odd that you enjoy it, you're not the only one.

I still do play BF2 with bots from time to time. Always a good time, despite the bots making you feel alone in the fight for the control points on Expert.

It looks interesting, but the lack of a save feature is a huge con to me. Not a fan of games that make you start over when you make a mistake.
The point of the game though, if you could save the game would be too easy and entirely pointless.

That suggests a game is poorly designed tbh.
Matter of taste, but that games point is to climb higher, and as to make it feel risky, dramatic or whatever you may call it, it doesn't give you save points. This would destroy the effect of the game and make it too easy as well. The point is to climb as high as you can, without making a big mistake.

Maybe, tho its nothing fancy just something for me to get around in my town w/o the fear of it breaking down on the way back or something. 'also my old one is kinda heavy and I'm not getting younger:oops:'

Those are usually more fun. Would be interested to see what you got.

Today Angler COTW got it's first full update bringing it up to release status on console with crossplay in "Summer '23". Numerous graphics and livability changes arrived alongside final reveal of leveling and upgrade system. Game was rather dull before this. I abandoned it before easily collecting everything in advanced beta where structural elements provided no challenge to doing so. Two years from now it should have more content and be among the best fishing games.



Characters still look like they left their stuffed Mother in a rocking chair. Only now they smile with an increasingly comical rictus themselves depending on how large and hard to catch a fish was.

Broforce campaign completed. High-fived the president and paid respects to The Satan

Finishing Time Bro covert mission felt a tad more satisfying though.

Now to get onto Forever stuff somehow?

I'm playing through that. Some levels have a big gap though and not sure how to get across.

That one specific level?
Make note where ammo crates are, make sure you collect them and press the special button as soon as you see first explosion pop up. Then mad dash (double tap direction then hold). Rest is reaction times.

Oh, and in one spot you have to ride propane tank upwards (it faces that way, so you will know where), so shoot it fast.

I feel you, I like bots too, in multiplayer there are a lots of stupid limits, like weapons, vehicles, plus with bots you can set some custom rules, change teams, no unbalance...etc
Unfortunately neither offer bots, on BF2042 it's possible though.

I recently 100% completed Magna Cum Laude on my Win7 rig. It's the seventh major installment in the infamous Leisure Suit Larry franchise, which I've been (re)playing chronologically for some time. This 2004 title is the first Larry game in 3D. And for the first time you play as Larry Laffer's undergraduate nephew, Larry Loveage. As usual, you try to get lucky with different chicks while enjoying the college life.

You'll be spending time in the library, science lab and art/photography atelier:

1.jpg2.jpg3.jpg

Or playing time-honored college games, quarters and slaps, and doing dance battles:

4.jpg5.jpg6.jpg

The campus and the surrounding areas create an open world. Besides exploration, gameplay involves a wide range of arcade mini-games, many of which are rhythm-based. Most of these require very quick reflexes, as they get progressively more difficult. The later ones take multiple tries to win and become super challenging (and very annoying) , especially when aiming for a perfect score. Luckily, you can buy different items that make those games easier to beat, and after three failed attempts you are allowed to lower the difficulty/speed. You can even skip the mini-game after three more failures, for a nominal fee paid in collectible tokens.
No, I did not bail out a single time. Yes, I did get a perfect in all 142 of them :peace: Even though most mini-games are extremely funny and original, the gameplay becomes very repetitive after a while. Much like IRL, it's best to take a break before seeking the next relationship ;)

Naturally, the focus of the game are the sexy coeds, and you'll get a chance to pick up 16 of them:
7.jpg8.jpg9.jpg

Whoops! :twitch:

Magna Cum Laude pays homage to classic Larry games and has a ton of other cultural references. It's got great licensed music and some of the cutest loading screens I've seen (wink-wink). The NPCs are incredibly well animated with motion capture, including detailed facial expressions. And the game upholds the trademark locker-room humor while being extremely witty and 100% politically incorrect.

I absolutely loved it! :D

So close, but yet so far. *sigh* (only 19 more days)

I am going to be pissed if it is capped at 60 fps, all the money skyrim made them, they have no excuse. high refresh smoothness while flying in jetpack in shootouts or flying around star systems with no blur would be fucking amazing, but at 60hz that shit is blurry. I really hope they give us proper high refresh rate goodness, even if its capped at 120 fps i'd be ok with that.

At least from what I've gathered, I don't think it'll be capped at 60. That being said, I have zero expectations, other than I think it's going to be a buggy mess at launch. I've decided not to buy until it reaches a 50% off sale eventually. For now it's pre-loaded with Game Pass and waiting for the 5th. :sleep:

I don't think it will be that buggy, from what I understand they hired modders who fixed Skyrim to their team, on top of that the game has technically been golden for like a year and apparently they have just been polishing and fixing bugs for a solid year before this actual release. Fingers crossed.

I probably will wait a couple months at least before I even load it up. I expect a couple big patches, but probably will come out fast.

I will look at it as soon as possible, after paying £60 why not. I do reckon there will be some quick patchwork though lol
