Much love for FC2. My favorite loadout (with mod) was Spas 12, Silenced Mp5, and the M1903 Springfield. Basically let me cover every situation in their face, far away, or behind em sneaky sneaky in the dark.

re: TW2, you mean this conversation? Er ya. Classic. Made me want to haul his drunk ass back down into the cave with the monsters (=

Even scenes like that. The very fact dialogue like that is in the game, ie. a drunk soldier being properly crass rather than the sterile nature of Bioware/Bethesda (whose games I do love), is one of the things that makes me love it so. Scenes in the game like that are also far more fun when you don't have subtitles allowing you to read ahead, but this can often prove too tricky if there are characters who whisper or too-loud background noise or silly elvish languages with bad subtitle planning. Games need a quick on/off subtitle toggle without needing to go to menus.

And wait, FarCry 2 mods?

Don't attach them. Host them on Imageshack or something similar and use [IMG] tags in conjunction with the Direct Link URL it gives you.

Thanks. Think I'll stick with this for now.

I see your point, and do appreciate frank dialogue, but there's sometimes a line where it seems forced, where it's a bit gratuitous rather than in-character. Anywho - FC2 mods ahoy!

There are more sites, and it is a very difficult game to mod, but they do exist. My favorite mod is one that significantly lowers gun degradation rate, and the aforementioned "any weapon in any of the 3 slots."

YESSSS!!! 1000x this!

Also, game devs please subtitle the intra-party banter. Though I guess this mostly applies to bioware. I missed 90% of it because of the background noise (kind of like trying to listen to a conversation two tables over in a busy coffee shop - not that I would ever do that though...). It gives me something to do while endlessly backtracking through kirkwall because, even though I don't particularly love the game, I want to get my money's worth.

How do you remove the hud? I see people taking screenshots of Batman Arkham City without the hud?

You need to add a binding for ToggleHUD via config. Edit the UserInput.ini in:
Documents\WB Games\Batman Arkham City\BmGame\Config with

.Bindings=(Name="H",Command="ToggleHUD", Control=False, Shift=False, Alt=False)

"H" is an example, you can change it to anything you'd like ("F8", "Y" etc.). Try to pick something that is currently not in use.

Wow thanks, wasn't expecting an awesome answer like that. Can you pause the game too? :P

Since it's an Unreal Engine 3 game, I believe a lot is possible within the game. There are a lot of interesting camera commands (and some pause commands) in the configs, mostly related to developer mode. Inserting those like "ToggleHUD" has no effect. How to enable the developer mode? Hell if I know. That said, I haven't actually tried anything but I doubt it's as easy as inserting -developer to the launch options.

To stay on topic, here's an old screenshot I found:

We gave the assault frigates a try now that CCP has revamped them a bit. That's my Wolf. Managed to help pop someone in an ice field:

Nice shot, I haven't played since before they updated the backgrounds and brought back trails.

Good lord EVE is a pretty game. I also completely dig space ship designs that are kinda...clunky and pieces and arrrgh, love it.

Agreed. I love looking at the various pieces of space ships and trying to figure out what their purpose is.

First someone makes a Wizard's Crown thread and next someone is playing Wasteland. What's happened to RPS?

[agentorange]

Wasteland is one of my favourite games, and I've been forced (happily) to start playing it again because my dead GPU can't handle much else.

how is it anyway if i may go offtopic? graphics do not look that bad, but game mechanics, storyline?
