What does everyone think of EVE Online?
Do you think its playercount's downward trend can be reverse or is the game simply too dated in its mechanics? Will there be a game that fills its niche as big spaceman MMO?

dead game, the only hope is to reboot it on a fresh server with all the P2W removed and multiboxing banned, which will never happen, ergo dead game

Pretty sure multiboxing is already banned, in theory

no, they do and have always encouraged multiboxing because it pumps their numbers; why wouldn't they? (apart from it making the game shit, of course)

the only disallowed multiboxing is using free accounts, but if you're paying for 10 subscriptions you're encouraged to fly all 10 in a fleet at once

I don't think it matters anyways, any game where you can play 10 instances of it at once is for sure garbage

I don't see many people talking about this series although it's beyond based. They're not explicitly leftist necessarily (aside maybe from Peace Walker) but tackle some pretty based themes all around, especially Sons of Liberty imo

If you love KSP, then you might like SimpleRockets 2. It's still in Early Access, but the building system gives you much more freedom imo.

I thought of playing Stormworks but the reviews said they cut back a lot on the actual campaign/missions content so I didn't.

Overall these kind of games look kind of cool but I'm pretty much put off by the complexity needed. KSP is the last one I played in any great depth.

KSP really create the blueprint for accesible space games and even physics games in general. Have in mind that when the first alphas came out, the only other spaceflight sim was Orbiter, a complex sim for enthusiasts.

Level caps especially in RPGs are introduced(ideally) for balance since some rpgs especially MMOs have pvp components and obviously having someone have a level in the hundreds is obviously gonna document a difference in overall power compared to someone whose level is in the dozens hence why level caps are enforced(excluding wow)
BDO has a very very strange way of implementing a level cap system, rather than doing what blizzard used to do with just establishing a cap at level 60 and preventing any XP from being gained beyond that level instead BDO just scales up exponentially the amount of exp required to level drastically increasing the grind of the game in late stage. I don’t know if this does anything to reduce the imbalance
Do any of you have any ideas on this system compared to the classical method?

i'm thinking about buying a new videogame console. i want one that is very aerodynamic. i'm not very interested in using it to play videogames, i just want to toss it around like a frisbee. my old console broke for some reason when i tried to use it for this purpose

Multiplayer games can be really fun and great as long as there are people playing them. Most people play games like Fortnite, CS:GO, Battlefield or Call of Duty Call of Glowie, but I think there are some underrated gems that could be great if more people were playing them, whether it's an old game that isn't supported by the developpers anymore or a more recent but niche game.

I believe this is a problem multiplayer-only games have. If the game isn't popular enough, it will quickly fade into obscurity regardless of how good it actually is. Furthermore, under capitalism, whoever can spend loads of money on advertising can easily get a larger playerbase. I also don't know if socialism could give more exposure to obscure games.

So how would you remedy to this issue? Any examples of games of that kind coming to your mind?

planetside 2. horrible community. big fights. fun gameplay(if youve got an extremely good(top of the line) rig and assuming youve got good connection). 4chan esque community and always insufferable. fash everywhere. but a good time if you play by yourself and just mess around. altho it would be fun w some other people. relatively dead game b/c it wasnt as big as launch but youll always find 100+ fights during burger hours. if youve got low end rig just give up since it'll be a miserable experience

i mean by 100+ as in not the number of fights but the number of people in a territory. planetside 2 is the only existing mmofps where hundreds of people are in one area fighting. massive cluster fuck.

Since the game was hosted on a remote server, I guess that would constitute as cloud gaming.
Now, Kongregate was a Flash game website, but I don't know about Yahoo Games. I guess it's real.

Why is this occurring? I know both objects are faced towards the light source but the green box is within the shadow of the yellow sphere therefore shouldn’t that box become either darker or blacked out? What’s happening

No this isn’t a thread to shill far cry 2 hear me out
Generally speaking I’ve come to realize that the best type of games wether linear or open world tend to play a lot more interestingly when they apply real world aspects of life and apply them as mechanics to games

This includes
Inventory reducing the players speed
Abolishment of map markers, fast travel and quest finders
Ammunition having weight with minimal carry weight on top of that. The point of these features isn’t to make the game your playing harder but to make you use all the games resources in interesting ways than rely completely on one build to carry you throughout a game and far cry to me has a lot of customization and features like animal/human companions, loads of guns and gadgets, stealth, mounts, vehicles etc that offer so many unique styles of play that the level of arcadiness of the standard features in far cry’s core game design and many shooters I’ve played like it erodes the point of using pretty much all of these tools available to you making these games really boring to me once you learn the map layout a few hours in

Well I always thought that a more realistic FPS would be good. Something where you get survive getting shot maybe like once but you're also not facing ridiculous hordes of enemies either and are more like a normal soldier. But then I guess normal soldiers mostly just wait around for stuff to happen so I dunno. But it would be cool for there to be a game where like, a drug deal gone wrong leading to a shootout with like 3 guys is a major threat or something. Don't exactly know how you would make that work though.

Well, there's always the ArmA series for military scenarios and the SWAT series for… well, SWAT ones.

That sounds like a pretty cool concept. Undercover Cop Simulator or something.

Even those games stray into the cartoonish though, like how in Arma campaign you're often given ridiculous objectives like 'blow up this armoured convoy on your own', and in SWAT you'll be going into a building with like 25 armed guys in it.

 No.21269

>>21268
It’s not about being completely accurate to what would realistically happen
It’s about adding components of reality into a form of entertainment to diversify how players approach the game
