So are the story modes what people are asking for from their sports games?
I don't understand it and thought online franchises we're what we decided years ago we wanted and needed refined. Have these been perfected or something?

By GQman2121 Go To PostSo are the story modes what people are asking for from their sports games?The myplayer/myteam/ultimate team shit is dominating sports games. 2K for example, used to have a super robust online league where you even had a site where you could look at boxscores and stats for your league. Ever since the my career/story/park/myteam has taken off they've completely removed all the existing features.

I've tried to stop camping in duos, but I'm still way too much of a wuss
If I have the jump on someone, I still won't take the shot if there's a chance that I won't kill them. Opposite problem to what I do in dota, where I initiate regardless of how much sense it makes

By DY_nasty Go To PostSmokey. Are you still a camping tryhard? Someone asked me if you grew up but I don't want to lie 😶
Straight up never understood those Agent of Mayhem/Saints Row games. Even tried out IV with GWG and couldn't force myself past the initial skydiving ridiculousness.
Saints Row 2 was amazing to play with a friend. Really fun, and if I recall correctly it was one of the few sandbox games back then that didn't have a limited radius between the players unlike Mercenaries 2.

Iono fps pubg might be 2 campy for real
Haven't had a death in first person that I could even react to yet

It does.
It's just not as robust as it used to be a d 2k has shifted focus to my career/my park where they can charge VC.
By Hitch Go To PostVirtual currency I assumeYup.
By GQman2121 Go To PostWhat is VC and what does it buy you in game?It is what you use to activate skill-ups. You can earn them through normal play but $20 of VC is worth about 10 hours of grinding. It takes at least $40 of VC to have enough to "max" a single character.
e: it may take fewer hours to grind that much VC but it is still a large fucking amount for something that you can't respec or preview to see how it plays before investing all that time and money into it
Team Liquid won TI7. GH and Miracle are incredible players and Kuro is a fantastic drafter.
There were so many fantastic position 4s this year. GH, Boboka, Jerax, and at least one or two more Chinese players I can't remember the name of.

i've been watching competitive games for a long time, i can't think of a more ridiculous win. essentially lower bracket the whole time, running into killers. LFY looked amazing all week, were up 1-0 and looked like they were gonna dominate as usual.
You know i was really close to deciding i need to do something with my life and then PUBG comes along. Shit.
Guys I think I really like PSO2. I think I kind of wrote the series off after Universe, and all the materials I saw for this game in magazines in Japanese stores just looked like an avalanche of candy-coloured hentai anime vomit. But in sitting down to play it, at least in the early going it really has the magic of the first game, it feels just like an upgraded version of it.
It does have wall after wall of (really tiny) Japanese text though, the gaijin protection is strong with this one. I guess the PC version has a language patch but on PS4 you'd better either know your kanji, or be ready to keep a FAQ handy at all times.
Anyway, I think this is probably going to stop me from ever going back to FF XIV. It seems just as well done, but free. I'll see how long it takes to get repetitive, but I don't have that much time to game anymore anyway.

first match in PUBG, died because I had no idea how fast the play zone closes near the end, would've been #1 otherwise.
lots of nubs running around like headless chickens out in the open.

good final to watch. That Juggernaut ultimate outside the Rosh pit just as he was about to die, what a fucking save.

Here is a site that has an English installer and also a custom launcher (called the Tweaker) to keep the game updated with the latest English patches: http://arks-layer.com/

haven't touched it since I got my rig back up 2 days ago. I know if I do, it's a wrap. I'm trying to hold off as long as possible .
By Kibner Go To PostMan, that katakana(?) captcha was annoying as fuck for me. D:アイウエオ
