Mike1158 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) Way out of date with games, BF 1942 and BF 2 at a stretch. BF 2 and modern appear to be based on movement by mannequins driven by operators on some very bad carpet. I look at a few here and there but nothing really appeals tbh. Team Yankee was one I forgot.

Stargrunt6 Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Flashpoint Southern Storm is out and it looks like they made major changes including finally adding SOPs. So no more recon units dying to the last man when they are engaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't had the time to play much of Falklands DLC yet, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Not military at all, but Hardspace: Shipbreaker is a casual game that can be broken up into approximately 15 minute time-sucks and has a suitably Dystopian back story, although that's a light touch on the game core functions. You play an indentured labourer who uses a laser, magic grapple and linear charges to dismantle worn-out ships. It gets quite dangerous, but that's ok as you have plenty of "Prince Harrys" to use as spares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angrybk Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Can't stop playing Warhammer III Total War, it's becoming a problem. The world is so well-thought-out, and there's like a zillion different factions and 86 different leaders. And the combat's actually great. For those who don't know about the universe, it's basically a twisted version of Planet Earth but fantasy and magic, but with like 1600s-era gunpowder tech, but with HP Lovecraft. You've got your Holy Roman Empire fighting off demons from hell with pike (er, halberds) and shot, dwarves with flamethrowers, Good Elves with dragons, Bad Elf slavers, orcs, Fantasy China, armies of Lawful dinosaurs, evil rat-people, I cud go on.... it's become completely insane.

bojan Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 And Orks are British football fans, and all littered with terribly lame puns, "pig Latin", misspelled German names etc. Both Warhammer and it's quasi-futuristic Warhammer 40000 settings are incredibly settings, and both are firmly in my top 5 of my favorite fantasy universes.

bojan Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Not really horrible, but "forgettable" compared to old one, being much more geared toward generic fantasy setting. I am calling it "WoW at home" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bojan Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Oh, "Partizan"... Pale shadow of what they were, but at least they are not "Red Star". As a constant contrarian, my favorite team in the late '80s was Dinamo Zagreb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angrybk Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 If you're bored, there's a lot of really good free unofficial (and very well-done) army books here, including weird factions like Ind, Araby, Hobgoblins, Albion, etc. http://warhammerarmiesproject.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargrunt6 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 So a friend of mine looked at my gaming and business pc's and reconfigured the hardware and software for optimization. Irony of ironies, the biz pc can run games faster than the gaming pc. He also found out the gaming rig was underpowered and that the plate hd was on death's door. After replacing both I feel like I got a new comptuter. So I'm back to gaming and back to an old game, Kingdom Come Deliverance. It's so addictive and once I finish it I'll play it again.

Mike1158 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 A simple ?game? with a tank design element 'Sprocket' which is on Steamed. It's been a loooong time since I was incolved with games at all but I took a chance with it for a giggle. No idea what the holy handbasket I am on with it as there is no tutorial worth a dooh dah. Anyone else here tried it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Galbraith Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Yeah, I got it. Been trying to build a Chieftain. Ironically I got it down to 45 tons, which is more than the MOD did. Been doing a bit of tank mechanic simulator. More fun than I remember, particularly the new ones like the Panzer II, where you have to take the gearbox apart.

Sardaukar Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 By the way, Command: Modern Operations just got massive 14.7 Gb update with load of new features and whatnot. * New AAW missile kinematics & aircraft evasion * Multi-Domain Strike Planner * Operations Planner * Cargo 2.0 * Revised Mission Editor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Galbraith Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 I was rather disappointed that the scenario Id been working on 5 years ago for CMANO seems to crash after several hours with CMO. Perhaps the hardware demands are much greater, but its still disappointing. Mind you, it probably didnt help that I put in most of southern nato. I probably need a WOPR to run the bugger.
