The beginning is way easier as a vet because of the ton of skillpoints. After the second location (that is after saudi and moscow in my case) it seems a bit harder. I got the feeling that the enemies are able to soak more damage somehow. But perhaps its just lack of intel on them or something...

AR´s are fine as long as you can use them at range. A 3shot burst to the head is nice sure. But in close quarters it takes some time to bring the gun to bear. It was worst in moscow because the russian mobsters charge, hit you with melee and then step back to blast you with shotguns and smg´s. I...

Finished yesterday with my second playthrough as recruit on hard. Got the same problems with the minimgames suaside. Took to carry a ton of emp-grenades but you still cant hack everything. I blame it on controls not difficulty or recruit-setting. It was pretty hard that way. Not using pistols...

Depressing read. Judging by the short bit of the interview with that Jean-Francois Dugas-character and since every advertisment-interwiew seems to consist of the same bullshit, i guess the rest would read like this: Concerning the implant-system Well, we don't want to force choices on...

@nirvana A Good Game? But it is not! See numerous threads here for explanations of the flaws of FO3. A lot of these flaws dont depend on it being a Fallout Game. They would glare in any other setting too. Besides i dont have to be objective, im not a journalist. And i certainly stopped...

Jeesus christ.... :crazy: That Samuel Evans guy will go a long way in journalism, mark my words. I smell a pulitzer over the horizon and no mistake. I mean, he has taken journalism to a new level. Now its bashing part of your readers in defence of a product he should evaluate and comment...

FWE is good as it fixes a lot of the gameplay issues and you dont have to load a ton of other mods. If you really want to give it another go, install arefu expanded. Tehre are some new quests wich arent retarded.

Yep, but the outcome was also a ton of cash and that's the only thing that counts for any production in any media above a certain budget.

Heh, well think what the brits make of our Wankdorf :shock: . Silly place to put a big international stadion. :oops:

Jagged Alliance 2, at last. Always meant to give this game a try, but somehow never managed it. After reading some posts here in various threads I finally got it and patch 1.13. Very good game. Got me hooked from the start. I only got to liberate Drassen so far and promptly got my ass handed to...

Thats exactly what im saying. FPS can be immersive, ISO, third-person... whatever. There is no immersive perspective or non-imersive perspective. Only people who think there are such things like bethesda. FPS makes you (the player) the actor, ISO makes you think the actor is that guy on the...

Sometimes i wonder... what the fuck is so difficult about making up some own setting for a shooter? Do they really have to buy up a franchise? Is it sadism? Envy? Do they really hope that some old x-com fan would buy a crappy shooter because it got x-com on the box? Why not call it… the...

I get immersed if the setting of the game (or book, or movie) is believable (as in internal consistency not realism) and gripping. Immersion is something that gets created, not something that exists in itself. In a shooter recoil, heavy breathing and certain animations can create immersion. In a...

*sigh* haven't we suffered enough?

Shitty gemedesign. A good designed game creates a world and puts the player in it. Bethesda creates a player and then designs the world around him. The bomb wasn’t detonated, stolen, bought or dismantled because how else would the Vault dweller earn his cool tenpenny appartment? The bomb exists...

Uhm… guess I got worked up a bit by that hereditary-business and what some people make of it. Mea culpa and my apologies. The third link strikes me as a bit odd if they want to see if intelligence is genetic and not social. If you want to eliminate social influences it seems a bad idea to...

@ Lionel + Dragula No. That's Bell-Curve-Crap. The fact that the book sold well and made controversial statements close to scientific racism doesn’t mean its true. Murrays studies is based on questionable assumptions and has methodological errors. This has been pointed out by tons of other...

IQ means Intelligence Quotient. Its supposed to be a number that reflects the „intelligence“ of an individual. Problems: 1 there is no clear definition of “intelligence”. 2 IQ assumes that 100 is the average intelligence, so what is average? There have been no nation wide tests to establish an...

I like it too 1. Statues are ok. They can inspire people, improve a location aesthetically, provide some background to cool graffitis or be a source of metal in times of need. Also without statues people cant topple them to mark the "Beginning of a new age". 2. Space Programs are cool...

Heresy! Where is the guy with that heresy-stamp?! I moved flat four times and my f2-box made it every time :D. I guess they don’t have any monetary "Value", I would not buy one but I certainly will not sell mine 8-). *cuddles his f2-box"
