Getting into Hell Let Loose now, got it via Humble Choice, it's very pretty... but that is enough about me.

I tried it once, didn't like it because the server I joined basically had no teamplay/communicatioon going on.

I'd like to give Post Scriptum a try but it's the polar opposite of Hell Let Loose situation, teamplay is there but not enough active players to populate servers.

Yeah success does depend heavily on the quality of the players.

I also tried Post Scriptum on a Steam free weekend a while back, the players there equally took the game very serious, I had some German guy yelling at me for jumping in a tank and doing a kamikaze run at the enemy lines, was actually doing okay but I got kicked ;P

If PS has the same system ticket system as Squad then:
- 1 player is worth 1 ticket, one tank can be worth 15 tickets, each vehicle has a respawn timer which can reach 15min,
- side that runs out of tickets first loses,
Additionally one-manning vehicles that require multiple crew to operate will get you kicked on most servers. Doing "kamikaze run at the enemy lines" can be considering asset waste and will most likely get you kicked from the server, example would be some noob pilot practicing flying helis in public server crashing one after another.

So yeah, if you got kicked you most likely deserved it.

Maybe, but I didn't find the game fun at all, so glad I didn't buy it.

Might explain why the servers were dead.

I'd really like to get into this game. To say the least it has gotten really good in the last few years. Massive driving experience though a bit much of a simulation to deliver the type of pure enjoyment an unrealistic game offers me. I know a few serious people who haven't driven half of a single map they are so large.


More Hunter COTW maps keep entering rotation.

Aurora Borealis, in Finland where your in-game goals are devoted to a guided walking tour involving no hunting until the very end. You are encouraged to get naked and cavort around between a sauna and lakes, learn about the natural state of enjoyment life can bring, and mostly do a lot of bird watching.

Except for the simulation part, it's a easy game to get into and the mod community is amazing

Been playing a lot of Noita lately, fell in love with the pixel art style and simulated physics. It's a really fun game if you like fantasy type roguelites. The sheer amount of things to do and secrets to find outside of the core loop is staggering. I've managed to complete the main dungeon twice and I've unlocked maybe 4 or 5% of the total achievements. Also fun to see all the unique ways you can annihilate yourself because you got too cocky with a good wand.

I've managed to finish it back then ...
Hard for sure, but fun ... Dunno if i could do it now :)

Playing Doom (the recent one) ... Don't find it so good :/ Reminds me Quake 4 a lot, and very far from the original.
And still on Forza Horizon 4, love it !

Another one that's been on my wishlist for a while. Nice to hear good things about it, may pick it up in the sales over Christmas.

EDIT - Overwhelmingly Positive on Steam and pixel-based physics gameplay....yeh a definite sale purchase this year.

AwwwwnI'm truly sad I missed it. I played a lot of some older Flash version. I have TB5 on Android but it's not the same.
I think it's still discounted. $6.99 instead of $14. You may be able to find it cheaper elsewhere.

You might find the following amusing then;
Its time to race in the Snow on GTA5 - don't actually do Horizon 4, but I watch all of Alex's videos (and Broughy1322 also). I've watched them both
since the beginning.

Even cheaper, here at least. It's a joy to play without slowdowns.

you ONLY have 2 choices

- sell a body part for a GPU with more than 8GB VRAM

- FSR/DLSS

when the shooting starts it goes above 8GB and then you're playing at 2-5 frames. the card is drowning, it has nothing else to give.

I didn't know this was an issue, I am playing this on my 6800 XT right now, so you must be right about the vram issue.

No game title?


@Cvrk It really does help to mention the name of the game, or at least name the screenshots so those that may not be familiar with the game can find it to check out.

I didn't suffer any of those problems with my RX 5700 XT 8GB. Smooth as velvet.

Black Mesa Blue Shift is a superb remake of the original and what's more, it's free.

Found a console to cheat money. Glorious. No more endless mission farming. And the Crossfire mod is really interesting :) Finally I can not burn out on a third playthrough of this classic.

After all, Star Citizen still didn't happen... :p I think this is the best we'll see from Mr Forever In Alpha
