THAT REALLY GRINDS MY GEARS

A THREAD TO BLOW OFF STEAM FROM DEALING WITH BULLSHIT IN VIDYA YOU FUCKING HATE

What a bunch of faggots, do they think I'm carrying the mils for this shit, fuck pkers

That's not how it works.

...

...

...

...

That doesn't happen in DR1, the fuck you on about?

Mike looks like he's plotting Ryan's murder right here. And he's right if he's thinking no jury would convict.

Nigger, grabs in DR function in 2 stages. When you are initially grabbed you take damage each time you are bitten until you complete the QTE or fail it by running out of time or messing up the input, at which point you move on to stage 2 where you are pushed to the ground and receive more damage from further bites each time you fuck up the QTE.
It's impossible to be at full health and die from just messing up the first input. If you died after losing health from a grab that's because you suck, not because of "fake difficulty".

This is a fighting game, isn't it?

Worse, it's a JRPG, you'd think in the type of games where combat is all menuing they wouldn't fuck up the god damn menus.

I was at full health, a zombie grabs me and I get thrusted into a QTE, then when I fucked it up, around 3 to 4 bars of health drop to one and I am killed on the spot for fucking up one QTE. I don't know what to fucking tell you.

...

Even at level 1 you don't instantly die from a grab IIRC, something must have happened that you didn't notice or you are just outright lying.

...

I AM ANGRY

ANGRY ABOUT VIDEO GAMES

SHIT FUCKING WORKS

...

I'll give you that the combination is absolutely atrocious, to the point I'd rather have seen the same idea only using Splaton and Mario (literally anything but rabbids) but at least the gameplay looks reasonable. That doesn't mean I'm 90% sure that ubi is going to do some internal cash shop jew shit or season pass garbage. but at least the gameplay looks okay for an XCOM clone

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I FUCKING HATE
WHY MMO'S ARE STILL SHIT
There is no fucking excuse. At least some new one's even if they are vaporware more likely than not are trying to claim they are doing something different. For the most part if it's a western game it's a casual coddling gear treadmills with no real depth and if it's Eastern it's almost always a casual coddling Gook Grinder with pay2win out the ass, and absolutely nothing else to offer beyond that. STOP MAKING WoW CLONES! IF YOU WANT A WOW KILLER JUST MAKE SOMETHING NOT WoW. Just make good games, fuck Basically I just want some more sandbox MMO's that aren't built entirely on the backs of landwhale NEET bux, something similar to Wurm but bigger in scope I guess. It doesn't have to be a village building thing, but where community is big

AND STOP MAKING OVERWATCH CLONES! THE SHIT DOESN'T WORK BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T WANT THEM! MAKE YOUR OWN GOOD SHIT! HOW ABOUT A GOOD PLATFORMER

Fucking hell, man.

>The X is greyed out and cannot be removed

...

BUT user, HOW CAN YOU EXPECT A WIDE PLAYER BASE IF YOU DEVELOP THE GAME TO BE PERMANENT ULTRA-NIGHTMARE MODE?! NOBODY WILL WANT THE MICROTRANSACTIONS IF THEY CAN'T INTO THE FIRST THIRD OF THE GAME!

>they can still be unchecked

They want the kills. From what I understand, that shit is tracked now a days, and important in ((clans))

I've legitimately never heard of that. What game?

I still get phone calls from my brother about this kind of shit. He took a fucking university course for systems administration and still needs to call me whenever he updates his drivers or whatever to ask "Hey do I want this fucking toolbar too?" or "Hey do I want a free trial for this MMO I've never heard of?"
I DON'T KNOW NIGGER DO YOU?

THE LACK OF ANY GOOD REALISTIC WORLD WAR II SHOOTERS

I remember hearing that puppeteer was good, but I can't remember his name. Any help?
off topic sage

...

No retard, they need to be separate for a reason.

Jeff Dunham, he was okay until he got a TV show

Have you ever tried maxing out your fov in crisis?

thanks

Honestly I can't remember, but I got a scene release that grayed out the "take me to your website" buttons.

DO YOU KNOW HOW FUCKING MAD THAT "BUT PEOPLE WILL BE CONFUSED" ARGUMENT GETS ME?
I was playing some shit tier grinder Battle Lightning and we were talking about allocating rounds to different areas to allow for faster reloading speeds. And some idiot, some fucking troglodyte, wanted to say, "But t-t-that would confuse new players who wouldn't understand that". I told the dumb nigger there was a simple solution. The game already has all sorts of tips (sometimes useful, sometimes historical, sometimes 1 part common sense 1 part dumb Never forget to love before you grow old and never forget to hit the breaks before you run out of runway) all you have to put down is, "You can move rounds around your tank to reduce reloading times, but be wary of accurate tankers!" Look at that, easy fucking solution. If you are confused, good. You can FUCKING LEARN THE GAME AND HAVE FUN FROM ACHIEVING A HIGHER LEVEL OF KNOWLEDGE

And your first part that you said is the other issue. For some reason I swear every fucking publisher sees an MMO and all they think is, "The skies the limit!" and "It will be too big to fail!" I don't know why. Was there an anime where people with money invested in MMO's and got triple their investment back in the first 2 days or something? That's the only logical explanation I have for people who should have degrees and years of experience in these fields, having done this time and time again, and despite it always failing, repeatedly saying to themselves, "This time for sure, we got a WoW killer on our hands."

I don't get why they plan it to be so big. Downsize the dream, if the game gets more and more successful, then do something with that success, but start small. And have servers that can actually handle a bit above your projected load. Every MMO fucks this up, again, don't know why I'm not even getting into why it has to either be IRONMAN mode or Hold left click to win! tier playstyle as an on or off switch with no median between them either

Own fault is the worst.

Solution: Make your character models better, you dick sucking faggot.

Why the FUCK are these things so prominently featured in the game? They're the most common enemy encounter by far, even more so than sligs. They're like the bees from Oddysee but twice as annoying and you encounter then a hundred times more frequently.

I just want an ecumenical key, getting Saradomin killcount is a fucking chore

FUCK I HATE EVERY GOD DAMN DEVELOPER THAT DOES THIS

As a related gear-grinding grievance, I worked my way up to FeeCo Depot and the doors to Slig Barracks & Bonewerkz are locked. No amount of reloading the save fixed it. This is the steam version and I don't even know if restarting a new game will avoid the problem. Man this sucks. Also there's zero documentation anywhere on how to fix this problem, I've checked.

Developers, if you want us to get excited about your new shit, don't let your old shit become buggy & unplayable.

Can't necessarily relate since I'm emulating the console version, but I do remember quite a few more bugs in the PC version. That sucks, man.

Random crits or anything that gives shit players a free kill
Nothing worse than killing some kid only for him to poop out a crit rocket as he dies insta killing you

YAMERO

Shit, I almost shot my brother for being this level of retarded. Just block his fucking calls until he figures shit out on his own.

That's what you faggots get for not playing UT99.

UT99 will always live under Q3A's shadow, deal with it faggot.

The sephiroth fight in kh2 is waaaaaaaaay easier than the one in kh mate

I had never fought Sephiroth in KH1 though, and I came in unprepared. But the fight felt cheap as fuck because of the midair stunlock horseshit.

MATCHMAKING QUEUES

That actually sounds fun. what beat 'em up?

...

...

...

...

I don't think even the wooden stick would break.

Maybe Code of Princess, I don't think that gave you iframes

Along with item identification this is never fun outside of Roguelikes.

This is especially bad when the weapons are guns. Any modern gun will continue to work after several thousand rounds with only a regular cleaning. Unless you're dumping mags one after another it takes several thousands of rounds to start seeing a noticeable decrease in performance (from the barrel wearing away) and if there's a serious problem it's generally a catastrophic failure that needs a replacement part (and with modern designs any competent armor can replace that part in half an hour if they have it)

...

This, also:

This always bothered me about DOOM

...

...

And here's an extra special one brought to you by Dead Space:
Thankfully X360ce has a negative dead zone option to fix this.

EVERY TIME

There is a trick, but of course, it is something you shouldn't have to go out of your way to do, disable synch, go offline, mess with your local saves, go online, enable synch, Steam will ask if you want to upload or download your saves, choose upload and there you go.

>not named black_cake_goblin.jpg
missed opportunity

Bayonetta has some horribly timed QTE's, the game would be even better without them.

Not quite related but the current freeware version of Battlefield 2 can't (apparently) allow you to pause the download.

...

Doesn't work with every game. Believe me, I've tried. Mainly with old games that honestly have no business being on Steam in the first place.

Well shit, that sucks.

if a game has sundering it might be cool because you can give an advantage to hammers and axes and whatnot.
it also means that you could have katanas cut flesh like no other in exchange for being unreliable and breaking

That's the thing, weapon breaking hasn't been made the right way, you could have sturdy unbreakable weapons like iron crowbars with AtkSpd penalties while breakable weapons could be more versatile, not to mention the whole fire arms side of the equation.

...

I don't watch anything with that fat fuck, why do they invite him

...

sthap

FUCKING DISHONORED SHIT WHY WOULD YOU MAKE 3/4 OF POWERS MADE PERFECTLY FOR KILLING AND SLAUGTHER YET GHOST PLAYTROUGHTS ARE ENCOURAGED IN STATS MY AUTISM CANT TAKE IT REEEEEEEEEEEEE FUCKING RETARDS CRACK DEATH OF OUTSIDER NOW I DONT CARE THE WHOLE SERIES IS MEH I DONT HAVE SHIT TO PLAY AND I SURE AS FUCK WON'T PAY A DIME FOR THIS CRAP

Does anyone else hate it?

The game had potential

But don't you like le steampunk aesthetic? *tips smokestack-shaped tophat*

...

God I hate that shit, basically any "stealth" game do this. MGSV inb4 mgs ain't a stealth splinter cell, dishornored, Styx…why give weapons if I can't use them? Then give me more ways to non lethal the game like rubber bullet on almost all guns or way to distract the enemy

Forgot the flag

This is the reason I stopped playing MGSV. My autism compelled me to get rank S in every mission, so I never tried any weapon other than the non-lethal ones. This bored me to death.

Has this ever fucking happened. Did anyone get motion sick playing FEAR? I didn't fucking think so. Why the fuck this this a thing. Carmack fucking did it because he had to. And apparently everyone aped it from then on forever even though they had everything they needed to able to just have the game camera be that- a fucking camera sticking out of a character's face and not a completely different dimension where your player is replaced by a pair of floating hands.

...

...

In Splinter Cells defense, other than the first one and probably a couple of games after chaos theory and a couple specific missions, you really are able to use weapons as you see fit, the game will be harder, but it is still able to be done.

That's SCEA's fault, not Atlus's. They didn't allow staight PS1 to PSP ports without arbitrary levels of new content. It blocked a few other games (Breath of Fire III PSP was PAL only because of this) and it's why Tactics Ogre included all the DLC for free in the west (so they could meet that arbitrary "new content").

>Automatic

FUCKING CATCH-UP


My absolute favorite. /s

How is that a thing, someone's channel had these liked, not clicking it.

please tell me most of them are from reddit

Not only weeb stuff, literal cancer from a certain (((someone))) who used to browse these very waters on this here board.

This.


They could add an weapon/hand size slider too.
Look at the weapon models on the game Destiny, the rocket launcher takes nearly half of the screen. It's insane, especially with the low FoV.

To add to this, you can probably count the amount of games that do scopes properly on one hand.

...

Holy fucking shit curse these people.

...

...

Nigger let me tell you a thing or two about stunlocks in KH2

I'm agdg-ing an FPS. How would you prefer a game handle this?

I too wished that Stella Glow had the full song list instead of those four it came with

>option to buy cool gear skins for ugly top-tier equipment with "not reel" money

I got the same problem with Styx Master of Shadows, why aren't there any "take down" abilities and only kill or no kill?


I got motion sickness on FEAR but it was because the FOV is too small and the head bobbing is unbearable.


The best sword for Vyse in Skies of Arcadia looks like ass.

put the gun but dont just arbitrarily zoom in because you have a few extra bits of metal guiding you, pretty fuckin simple

FFXI is to this day the only MMO with good looking equipment at the top end.

SWG had some top-tier looking top-tier equipment

I'm sorry I played perfectly up to this point, but then my attention wavered for a single second, I guess I'll restart this run that took half a goddamn hour

Because they often ask you to do things the vanilla game didn't, they end up exposing huge flaws that weren't even a problem originally. Fucking Mario 64 romhacks are the worst, the game is not built in any way for making clenched asshole jumps across 10 inch platforms, walljumping all over the place while the camera fails to keep up, and trying to land dead center on things when you barely have any air control. The physics aren't built for it, the camera's not built for it, the character's not built for it, the fucking level of spatial awareness you get does not suit it. It's not fun in any way.

*for every little mistake made

...

That shit got me bothered too back in the day, often had to go to the deep wilderness for solving level 3 clue scrolls. Some faggot sees a naked dude running around and makes it his fucking lifes work to chase said dude down. The persistency of these bloodthirsty faggots was unreal

Whenever you think of adding something, first ask yourself "how would this add to the fun?".
If iron sights just make the gameplay slower paced and shooting easier, then don't implement them at all.
A game that does iron sights pretty well is insurgency for instance, there you actually have a reason to aim and the high quality sights system in the game really compliments it.

Poor design in user created content. It's as if map/mod makers don't play the game themselves and have no understanding on what X does to gameplay, especially online.
Offline, these mistakes can be as simple as this:
Maybe I suck, but I don't get my kicks from speedrunning the levels. I'd rather fight and shoot 99% of the monsters I face. TEST YOUR SHIT

Aces Wild. There are ninjas that explode into lots of other ninjas and they'll just go Poor Little White Boy on your ass if you're not ready.

YOU TAKE THAT BACK, YOU COCKSUCKING TURBOFAGGOT!!!!!!!

Nah, Korean mmo's had great endgame gear. You could easily tell who was lvl 40, 45, or 50, especially when only a few dozen were 45 or 50. Everyone knew what the gear looked like in stores, but very few could equip them.
Kal Online, RF Online. Archers had awesome lvl 40 armor sets and 50, and Accretia lvl 45/47/50 on the other game was neat.

OP is not very good at video games.

...

lolwut

FUCK PEOPLE WHO DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW MODDING GAMES WORKS

...

Uh… PUBG?

the mutilated corpse of cs

CSGO then, oh well, I thought you couldn't even respawn in that game.

Even if those games could be modded as easily I doubt you'd ever see anything substantial because Doom and Bethesdashit currently have a monopoly on mods and it wouldn't surprise me if Zionmax uses underhanded tactics to keep things this way.

depends on the game mode

Oh would you like a cool boss? Why not just have this regular enemy but bigger? Now buy costume DLC for 50 bucks sucke- I mean customer.

Be thankful you even got a boss and not a QTE you entitled pissbaby.

>chose vanu when i started because green and purple

This fucking game has convinced me that the vast majority of people are either devastatingly incompetent or unerringly evil and must be put to death if they fall into either of those categories.

You have to go back.

Which games? Almost all of my old favorites stand up pretty well

this low effort high killcount in games puts me over the fucking line

Get NVAC and something that will let you auto purge cell buffers

...

I'm looking at you destiny.

...

...

why

At least you acknowledge this is an autistic complaint and nothing else.

He's using Dvorak.

I don't know what your talking about, my K/D rose 20% just by switching to Vanu from NC and doing literally nothing else.

I could have stolen everything in your house and made twice that much in five minutes. Why even do quests?

...

Dammit, I know that shooting things is fun but I wanted to try something different.

Oh well, guess I'll try a psy-focused guy next. I already have a weapon specialist, but he's too overpowered to make the game any fun other than as a quick power trip.

forced walking and other padding
fucking bayonetta 2 had forced walking sections i thought i was in fucking bizarro land.

...

it might also be because the player would otherwise be occupied with enemies or other gameplay elements to have time to notice or appreciate the setting.

it is a bit cheap though.

thats what zones where you aren't fighting for, anyone who has played more than 2 video games in their lives will take a second to look around an area to try to find items or secrets anyway

:^)

this is basically all stealth games that don't explicitly force stealth or nonlethality

i hear this complain but it doesn't really bother me personally, the only one stopping yourself from using all your powers for fun is you and how much you want the "good" ratings

it's because the team wants to force you to stop and "appreciate" their work

this is verbatim what devs say

if they have to physically stop or slow down the player to "appreciate" their work then they lack confidence that their work could be appreciated without some kind of hand holding

also kill all the fucking writers.

THE HIT REG ON FUCKING RAINBOW 6 SIEGE IS BULLSHIT. HEAD SHOTS ARE NOT REGISTERING AND I HAVE HIT MOTHER FUCKERS SEVERAL TIMES IN THE HEAD AND NO FUCKING DAMAGE IS DONE! WHAT THE FUCK UBISOFT

I'm not arguing with you bud, but they "worked really hard on that" and they want you to see it even if they have to objectively make the game worse to accomplish that

nor I, sorry if i came off as attackin' ya there.

No. They don't even fucking care about k/d. They're just fucking retarded. They see what they are supposed to do and they do some other thing.

Besides, of course, can't really blame them for not wanting to do what they're supposed to do because vanu is by design inferior to the other factions. Weaker weapons, weaker shields, weaker vehicles. Period.

Because the game's creator is a faggot:

Let me tell you about how planetside 2 works my friend.

TR and NC would rather fight against each other all day long with no tranu in sight. They both absolutely fucking hate going against tranu.

They hate fighting tranu at night because at night tranu is invisible. Hossin was completely abandoned because tranu was invisible there all day long due to their color palette. You literally have to crank up your screen brightness every time tranu rolls around teh corner.
Tranu has fucking beam weapons with little to no drop in a game about getting headshots over distance. The "muh k/d went up by a gorillion switching to tranu meme" is not a meme, its fucking real and everyone who played the game for longer than a week will tell you that.
Also tranu has fucking fagriders and let me tell you about fagriders. ANY AND ALL drawbacks the fagrider has are completely eliminated by the fact that they can stay alive for hours due to their mobility. What they also can do is climb up impossible spots and farm spawnpoints all day every day. EVER SEEN A FUCKING VANGUARD ON A TOWER LANDING PAD? Not fucking likely.

TL;DR: If you actually suck playing tranu, you are a literal fucking permascrub and should stop playing video games and kill yourself.

Nobody is talking about fake difficulty, you spastic Capcuck

Weapon degradations is very poorly implemented and tends to attract tryhards. Weapon type/variety and ammo quality could do a better job.


That was one of my grips with FC2, that ironically FO3/NV were able to "distribute" the quality.

One cannot get motion sickness unless one is moving. Those faggots just have deficient eyeballs and fucked up ear fluid.

Just instantly screams 'This is gonna be shit they've put no effort into', bad first impressions endure, shit like that is so lazy.

lol

...

I see you're a fucking faggot, holy shit

>male character sucking off giant futa dick
This shit's so fucking gay holy shit.

...

Wasted opportunity.

What were you expecting from Their Highest Majesty after you flipped finger at them? Patting on your head? With a guillotine, maybe.

...

...

...

Fucking hell.
No excuse you fucking cunt devs.
Yeah, fuck you too.
Fuck You 3D & Knuckles.
I'm somewhat patient but sending one marine at a time to check for hidden instakill garbage is fucking tedious.

Hey Woolie. Didn't know you played FPSs.

FUCKING WHAT

Land Claim blocks that don't fucking work, as seen in;

Minecraft

7 Days to Die

Any other crafting game with a hint of PVP

technically it's hwhalepunk, as all the technlogy is the games is powered by wale oil and not by steam.
Still no good Moby Dick references though. Sad!

Awful interfaces are the thing that piss me off most in vidya nowadays.

Campaign map is a total shitfest.
You can't preview routes, you just click and hope the pathfinding does not annihilate your asshole. This does not help when the army movement on the world map consists of clowny games of cat and mouse. There's a stance that allows you to move twice as far but you can't start a battle so you just have to position well or hope the AI misjudges their army strength. Areas with corruption exist which kill your dudes just for standing there as icing on the cake.
So one would really prefer a 2D map with very clearly marked boundaries or at least the ability to preview your army route when you click a destination. Nah, you get this "high-resolution" 3d map with an awkwardly angled camera, and your pathfinding fucking sucks. Enjoy seeing your perfectly positioned pick off of a single Chaos army turn into you getting gang-raped by the Everchosen's flaming demon dick and assorted pals over and over again because a random turn in the route caused you to come up short of attacking.

...

...

Boy do I like to use this enjoyable thing for like 2 levels and then never again

...

Aw poor baby got killed by an infiltrator.

user, TR and NC guns shoot bullets that travel in a straight line towards the direction in which they were shot. Vanu guns shoot wet noodles that occasionally don't miss the target by several continents.

TR and NC shields and armor are capable of withstanding even slightly more than a minimal breeze. Vanu shields, rather than protecting their wearers, melt the skin of the poor vanu soldier unfortunate enough to be wearing it.

TR and NC vehicles are military tanks that have weapons on them. Vanu vehicles are cardboard boxes with Dora the Explorer stickers on them.

There are 2 factions in this game, vanu is just the npcs that provide small amounts of xp to the players. The developers hate vanu and engineer the entire game to see them fail at all times. If you have ever been killed by a vanu player, that means that you have gone insane and are hallucinating that vanu has effectual equipment because in reality vanu is hamstrung by design.
