The Last of Us

[Elok]

It's hats.

Fedoras to ball caps.... If you wear a hat while you drive you are invariably a ****ty driver. I don't know why.

Hats are not functional while driving. If you've got a roof, they aren't gonna do a damn thing to keep the sun out if the flip-down visors can't help. If you don't have a roof, you're going to lose your hat. All you're doing by driving hatted is restricting your field of vision somewhat. It's a bit like wearing sunglasses indoors. Hence, a driver with a hat may be presumed careless.

The Last of Us is getting 10s because it's a major studio and the 12 year olds who review games depend on studios' approval to stay in business and/or cream themselves when a studio shows interest in them. That said, it is not a QTE-fest, or a total waste of time like The Walking Dead was. Mainly because of the brutality in which you stomp on blacks and the poor, it is a fun nine hours.

If you want depth or good gameplay, go buy Airland Battle or State of Decay or preorder Company of Heroes 2 or Rome 2 and shut the **** up. No one wants to hear you talk Sava. You are an idiot.

Version 5.0 came out today

[Ninot]

I love SimCity but I havent touched it in over a month. What does 5.0 do?

Getting AirLand Battle. Looks amazing.

Also replaying Xcom.

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

TF2, build a sentry gun, have beer, watch scouts run into it, refill from time to time, enjoy life.

...get sapper attached to sentry, get stabbed in the back during a panic-stricken attempt to bash it off...

5.0 change list:

• New: Historic Price charts for Global Market resources are available from the SimCity World button on the main menu.
• New: The Region Wall chat has been completely updated with a new look and new functionality! Chat functions more efficiently and it’s much easier to communicate with other players. Time stamps show on chat messages on rollover. Regional events are easier to read and can be toggled on and off.
• New: Added a filter for friends’ regions in the join region section.
• New: Trading control. Added feature to give players more control over their utilities. Players can now choose whether or not to keep their power, water, or sewage local. This setting can be found on the information panel accessible by clicking on the power plant, water tower, or sewage pipe or plant. Sharing with the region is on by default.
• New: Regional Missions: Added seven new regional missions: Drink It Up!, Plug In, So Stoked, The Wheels on the Bus, Ferry Dust, Station to Station, and Riding Coach.
• New: Regional Achievement: Added a new regional achievement, Field Trip!
• Gifting Improvements: Cash gifts are now delivered electronically, not by truck. This should improve the efficiency of gifting.
• Resource gifts: Resource gifts will happen more reliably. Multiple trucks can make deliveries at once if they are available in the sending city and the truck capacities have been increased.
• Great Works Improvements: Delivery trucks will mark their resources as dropped off as soon as they reach the Great Works, instead of when they arrive back in the city. This will make tracking time more reliable.
• Great Works Improvements: Update to have all resources at Great Works handled at the regional level. This will address players in different cities seeing different resources once the server has processed the region and cities.
• Great Works Improvements: Fixed an issue where an Arcology would maintain power from the region and fixed an issue where shoppers would not increase at the Arcology as it was leveled up. This will update in both existing and new Arcologies.
• Great Works Improvements: Tuned the Solar Farm.
• Regional Unlocks: The advanced coal mine unlocks regionally. Fixed issue where the Trade HQ sometimes did not unlock.
• Fire Advisor Trading clarity: Tuned the Fire advisor so they do not tell you that neighbors are sending fire trucks when your neighbor has no fire stations.
• Trading: School buses that travel from a neighbor’s city will show that city’s avatar.
• Regional Commuting: Fixed an issue where Sims would not be able to take transit out of cities with lots of streetcars or shuttle buses. This could cause some cases where commuting Sims could not return home and their homes would go abandoned.
• Garbage Trucks and Recycling Trucks: Fixed an issue that some cities experienced where garbage and recycling trucks do not leave their buildings or disappeared when trading service with neighbors. Existing cities who have trucks that have disappeared will have to demolish their missing trucks’ garages and plop new garages.
• Text Clarification: The “Out of Money” message now says “Can’t find work” when appropriate in rollover feedback and the approval rating UI. This is to clarify your Sims’ actual need.

They've done a lot of work prior to this fixing service vehicles like fire trucks.

And Airland Battle will not disappoint

My father told me when I was a teenager,"Watch out for the old men with hats when driving." It's never been wrong.

ACK!

It's not an age thing.

Young guys with ball hats ---> just as bad.

Good games I've played recently (last 6 months):

Fire Emblem: Awakening
Tomb Raider 2013
XCOM

I wouldn't say it's hopeless.

Of those, I think FE:A is by far the best, by the way.

The new TR game is good. It would have been better if they didn't paint every grabable and/or climbable edge white.

[Sava]

Here. You can experience The Last of Us.

Just hold a controller while you watch this and press X occasionally. That's the game.

I just saved you $60.

You're welcome.

Vehicle conga lines still exist. Resource gifting is still broken.

Yet another fail patch for a fail game.

Pointless. In the end cities still end up looking like this:



rather than regular modern cities.

I haven't bough any games for a while now, but it does seem that developers have decided to treat gamers like idiots that cannot be trusted to figure out anything by themselves.

The multiplayer is actually kind of fun.

I guess. I don't care.
