Warhammer: Vermintide 2 Anonymous 08/07/2019 (Wed) 10:01 [Preview] No. 11715 [Reply] [X] [Last 50 Posts]
New & big patch for the game is out, and The new expansion can be played now if you preorder it (It weird, yes, and I havent done it yet).
Talents have been reworked, and the mechanics too, with combat being somewhat slower too. I only played 2 games on Legend as Slayer & Ironbreaker (And I forgot to change the talents mind you!), and Slayer with 2 Axes+Pickaxe no much change, but I died more easily tough. Again, Dint put talents well.
Now Ironbreaker with Shield feels heavier and better, and with the talents about stagger, it should even better.
I will ask this small question for those that played beta and more: What is the thing with the talent that make first enemy hit as staggered? Is any enemy instantly staggered or what? And its worthy to get it over the other ones of that level?
Post your tough on the new changes, and any builds.

Does it really matter what character I select or can they all end up the same through customization? Thanks for the advice anon.

Each class have its own talent tree, abilities, way to work, and some even have exclusive weapons. there is not mold to put on all classes.

When you do that push while parrying, if you hold down the attack button after pushing you'll do a special push attack that has different properties than normal attacks. I didn't learn this until after over 200 hours of playing, it dramatically changes lots of weapons.

>There are literally zero Cataclysm games, because game have changed so much, and Fatshark buffed enemies and difficulties so much, that people cant even do Legend runs well, nevermind finishing the Legendary Lords required to get Cataclysm.
Fatshark have almost killed the game with these changes, and the beta was literally just an early access mode.
The difficulty setup now is screwed because now Legend is really hard as fuck, so people cant even get the new dificulty (which was the anwer to all the other saying Legend before was easy. Even if Cataclys is really hard, no problem because that is the point, plus if its harder, then the item drop should be much higher then; But thing is I dont know how high the red item drop for Cata is because I cant even do it).): And there are retards saying that if Legend is now too hard for you, just go Champion...But making Champion feel like Legend, but with the less red item drop from champion, makes doing Champion almost useless.

P2P Multiplayer Anonymous 08/07/2019 (Wed) 15:16 [Preview] No. 11753 [Reply] [X] [Last 50 Posts]
Is P2P multiplayer still a thing in PC gaming? I remember in the old days if you had your friend's IP you could connect to eachother and get some online games going between 2 or multiple people.
No gamespy or any server login.
Everyone uses steam now, but do any newer games have a P2P multiplayer option?

name some old games too if any come to mind that are good multiplayer games with a P2P option. It used to be a given that a multiplayer game would have this, but like couch coop, its becoming harder to find. I would like to gather a collection of games that i could still play mutltiplayer with friends, even if servers close.

Afraid I can't help you too much with newer games as I'm not playing many. If a game is steam exclusive but has a normal dedicated server system it's possible to use a steam emulator like SSE to play with pirated copies which means they're still playable if the main servers go down I know that much.

im aware of hamachi and i could also use logmein or any screenshare app to accomplish the same thing with local coop games. or use VMs to do this.
but that completely misses the point of the thread.

>>11761
>Afraid I can't help you too much
did i accidentally post this on the amazon.com q&a section?

seriously though, if all you know is older games, just list some good ones that you know for a fact have easy P2P/directconnect/local server/lan setup. i plan on using the info to make an infograph and possibly a torrent of all the games.

there currently is no list and i think it would be a great way for anons to continue playing games online even if (((something))) happens.

Honestly almost any game before 2010 would fit but whatever. Have some tactical FPSes I know for a fact work because that's what I played most recently:

SWAT 3
SWAT 4
Ghost Recon
Early Rainbow Six games

Gacha is more of a chink thing, although Japs do love pachinko for some reason.
The oldest I can think of something like microtransactions was Bethesda DLC for Oblivion, the horse armor being the most egregious bit. I doubt they took much inspiration from it.
If you had shown a gamer in 2006 what kind of things are sold in games today they'd laugh at how absurd it is.

That's one of the earliest ones that's known about certainly.

People got mad about horse armour but they still bought it. At this point it's clear we can't rely on the average human to vote with their wallet and need actual legal changes. That or actually found a gamer terrorist group and threaten them into stopping.

Even worse, while Horse Armor is still a joke (that people bought anyway), content like Fire Emblem's DLC is celebrated now, even though it is the same type and amount of content.

Why won't there be a JRPG that just lets me play the fucking game? I don't even care if the battles are repetitive as shit like Valkyria Chronicles II, just let me slap together a party, jump into gameplay and progress the story through special attacks or something. Like instead of the fucking Meteo you just slap a cutscene in there, so I have a reason to farm opportunities to use special attacks even if they're shit at combat.

Mixer vs Twitch Anonymous 08/05/2019 (Mon) 16:43 [Preview] No. 11565 [Reply] [X] [Last 50 Posts] >>11655
Im not even a streamer watcher, but the polemic with that Ninja faggot have made me discover Mixer. And I must say that, compared to the few time I went to Twitch, it worked better than Twitch. But that my small experience with both sites.
Because maybe I start using one of the stream sites (Watching some streams is not bad to enjoy), I want to bee sure if Mixer is all that good, or if anyone here thinks Twitch is better. Mixer only problem at first look is that is in the hands of Microsoft; But still Twitch with is retarded policies doesnt make it appealing. So redpill me on these sites. Or is there any better (And populated enough) alternative to these two sites?

It's the same reason people watch sports, it's entertainment. Most people suck at games so they get to watch someone who's a lot better than them play, or someone who is funny. That's basically it. And the chat is usually just shitposting or game discussion.

As for your question, mixer seems to be much faster. The streams load in <1 second as opposed to about 4 or 5 on twitch. Also mixer automatically shows you the past ~30 or so chat messages when you first join. That's all I've noticed, I watch a couple osrs streamers occasionally and checked out mixer.

Discord is full of shit on more ways than one, and has been since around 2017. Playstation and Sony aren't quite what it used to be back in the PS1, PS2, or PS3 days. I'm glad the Switch is out-selling both the PS4 and PS5 even now in Japan and ROK, as well as Taiwan, and certain other Countries in Asia.

Most recent patch 1.3 was in August. Can't tell you if it's worth pirating or not because the genuine fitgirl site requires javascript, as do their trojan bitcoin-miner encrypted pastebin links.
