AV's Coin Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Addicted to Star Wars Battlefront 2. Except for over powered Palpatine and a few other annoying things its a fun game. Lots of depth and I actually like the slow progression (which I think they are changing). Makes you think about where you want to apply your in game currency on star cards to power up your classes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They removed the micro transactions for real money. Might make a return though in a different fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game was built around micro transactions and removing them the way they did made the game a grind fest. It was designed around micro transactions and simply removing them wasn't the correct solution. There's a reason it hasn't sold very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AV's Coin Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 There is definitely too much winging in gaming. There are only a few star cards that are a must so if someone wants to drop an extra $100 to unlock them then thats on them. It probably only takes a week or two to get the ones you need. Regular troops dont need any upgrades except maybe extra health cards or cards that help you get heroes before other players take them. The rest of the star cards dont really matter for regular troops. There are several cards that are a must for heroes as well and those are the ones that get your health back that was lost. I dont agree with having to use $10k to $15k of credits to unlock some of the heroes however. That did take a while and used up credits that I could otherwise spend on star card upgrades. I play a lot of battlefield but have not touched BF1 since battlefront 2 came out. Its a fun game with a lot of depth and free expansions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks good and I want to try it but you have to buy the base game plus the Ghost War expansion. Maybe if it all goes on sale. Also concerned with how many people are still playing? Have you tried the it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried the it?? Yeah that's the game I just got. Ghost Wars is actually in the base game so no need for the expansion packs to play it. I haven't tried the PvP yet. I've just been playing through the story missions solo and I've really enjoyed it so far, lots of great things about the game. I was going to beat the game first before getting in to the Ghost Wars. It still gets updates from Ubisoft so it has a good player base. I actually returned it on steam because I didn't want to deal with the Uplay crap so I play this game on Xbox.

Yeah I've never heard of it before and one day it was on sale in the PSN store for like 14bucks so I figured why not. I loved it and eventually bought it again on PC to try out the Game of Thrones mods for it which is pretty awesome. I can't wait for the next installment, Bannerlord.

Scottish⑦Canuck Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Got a free trial for the Xbox Play Anywhere program so going to play some Sea of Thieves with some pirate mates tomorrow. Doesn't look like a long lasting game, but should be fun for a few hours. Finally a decent cross platform game as well. I've missed playing with Xbox friends since I made the switch to the PC last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It calculates a score for every country when you quit the game, whoever has the highest score is the winner. Or the game ultimately at the end of 1950, I think, and calculates a score based on economy, military, countries/states/provinces you hold. It depends how you want to play it, I suppose. In the game there I could've quit after 1943 when the Soviets steamrolled Hitler, but I played on. When the peace negotiations came into play, they had far bigger influence because of their contribution to WW2 and basically hijacked Europe installing puppet states. The Comintern was literally 20 countries strong including most of Europe. It's about 1950 in my game now, I've toppled Stalin, they've suffered over 20 million military casualties. It's really a crazy game. You can also do the unhistorical version and become a fascist United States if you want and alliance with Hitler or form your own faction. But of course if it's the unhistorical version, democracy might take over in Germany, or the communists take hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing that the U.S. can't go on a nuking spree after the end of WW2 though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can fire V2 type rockets around the map once '45 rolls around and the development of basic jet engines. I smoked both Stalingrad and Moscow when I was pushing in from the east, totally obliterated the infrastructure in two of their most heavily dense states.
