What games are you playing?

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Mount and Blade: Warband
There's a million mods out there for it, too, including graphics ones (if that's your bag) and ones that'll turn it into game of thrones etc.
Lost so many hours to that game, it's great.



Edit: @Groundhog great minds think alike :lol:

Cheers for that. I actually downloaded mount and blade the other day but couldn't really get on with the mouse controls (after mainly using a gameplan) might plug mine in and see if I can play it with one???

 

[ratsapprentice]

Beautiful game, but Did you not feel that the ending was just..... Flat though. A lot of anticipation, a lot made of the dementia, and it just kind of ends in the most mundane way possible

I do, a little... but I enjoyed it nevertheless.

I'll definitely be keeping an eye on what the studio does next.

I've only ever played with mouse and keyboard, not sure whether it has controller support.
Definitely takes some getting used to but it's really good once you do.


In fact I think I'm going to start a new save....RIGHT NOW.

Best thing about Mount & Blade is the Napoleonic Wars mod then sneaking into forts and bayoneting five gullible peasants in the back/riding everyone down as cav (fact).

 

[ratsapprentice]

Are there muskets (and powder and shot reloading) involved?

I remember playing a CS mod about 15 years ago which was set in the American revolution... was great.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I've not played either of the DLCs - they worth it?
Just seen there's a viking one! Definitely picking that up on payday.

 

[Peat]

Yes. Poor accuracy, long reload times, bayonets... all the good fun of the fair is there.

Shame it's multiplayer only... but then I've come to love M&B Multiplayer, so no hard there.

 

[Groundhog]

Mount and Blade + the Brytenwalda mod (it's on steam workshop) is incredible. Such an incredibly detailed well researched mod to the extent that they got the mod team to make an official mod for the game!

Only played the NW dlc and I love it so much.

There's some fantastic mods out there though. The Zulu War one is great if you can get past the frequency of massively racist comments.

I'm meaning to do a Brytenwalda campaign some day, does look pretty bomb - I've just sold out to the multiplayer though (that and have no gaming PC for two months)

 

[Groundhog]

In my opinion Viking Conquest is a less well polished and less lived version of Brytenwalda which was made by the same crowd. Was just playing Brytenwalda there. Welsh Daffyd ******** keep bullying me. Conquest is still good though, and the concept of building boats and stuff is cool. They just never really fixed it properly.

Last month:
Prison Architect
Mass Effect
Mass Effect 2
CS:GO

I've got 105 hours on CS:GO, and played quite a bit of Source years ago. I can normally pick up FPS games quite fast. But I still feel like such an amateur on it. It's so frustratingly different to literally every other FPS out there.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Tried mount and blade again last night and just couldn't get on with the controls. Tired mouse and then tried game pad, felt really clunky on both.

Real shame as it looks like a game is love but found the tutorial really frustrating to do anything.

Ar well

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Whilst I really wanted to hate it I really like the Division, even playing solo I am loving it.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

3DS now has Pokemon red and Blue.

Really tempted to get it now. (Is that sad).

Another plus are the Zelda games.

To buy or not to buy.

 

[MrTea_32]

Just playing Far Cry Primal.
Enjoying it so far it's pretty much a skin on far cry 4 with a different setting

There are quite a lot of nice games. Not a lot of them, but a lot of quality.

2016? I'm really struggling to get into it, possibly because of the transfer embargo on Forest who are my go to team and I really heavily on smart transfers, but I also think a much more intricate knowledge of football is needed which I don't have. I loved '14 and got into the 2030's eventually knocking PSG off their pedastal in France having been given a chance by Monaco after years of journeymanning, easily my favourite save ever! That 2018/19 season is so impressive btw!!

Yeah it's this years game, I started playing FM back in FM 2005, usually found at least 1 team I can do well with. Last couple of games it has been with City which is nice for me.

Not a bad result that! What were your transfers like? Must of had a few goodies to win the league first up! Makes me want to start another Journeyman save, had a cracker last time out.
