AttorneyAtWar Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Tell us how it is OP, I am kind of reluctant to play it because I am more of a old school Tomb Raider player. Kids these days don't understand the struggle and difficulty of fighting a T-rex in TR1, and solving puzzles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLSTK Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Some play TombRaider, others immerse themselves in the Third Battle of Kharkov, Battle Academy 2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulletpoint Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I guess you can finish not only the Rise of the Tomb Raider, but also the Golden Years of the Tomb Raider and the Fall of the Tomb Raider, maybe even with time to spare to complete the Retirement Years of the Tomb Raider before CMFB comes out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLSTK Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Too funny, BP.So if I understand you correctly, what you're saying is Final Blitzkrieg won't be released tomorrow? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its like ordering something online but not having a tracking number so everyday you check, but its not there and it drives you crazy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzersaurkrautwerfer Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 For the best really, I only have eyes for Xcom 2 right now, although I'm about to start on a 1:35 scale M4A3 76W, so likely about to get my WW2 on again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was brilliant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzersaurkrautwerfer Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I think the best way to describe it is you work with smaller teams (max of 6) and there's not a lot of granularity in what you do (you get two actions for each operative, shooting always ends a turn vs an action point system). Some people say it's "simpler" which to a degree it is, but I'll contend that compared to most squad level turned based games, it only presents you with choices that matter, and doesn't bog you down with micromanaging how many APs it'll take to cross the street, get behind cover (and if it's squatting or kneeling!!!!) and reload, it's just "can I move across the street with my first move? If yes and there's cover your dudes get down behind it, and if you didn't use up both moves with a long movement action, congrats! Reload away.Thematically it's still brilliant. However:There's XCOM: Enemy Unknown which is the modern remake, quite brilliant and quite cheap now (it came out in 2012) which thematically is the same idea as the original XCOM.Then there's XCOM 2, which assumes humanity got its teeth kicked in and has you running 20 years on with a resistance based on survivors from XCOM. They both play quite well (as I've already said), there's neat throwbacks to the original, and they're still punishing on even the medium difficulty. Highly recommend you snap up XCOM EU with it's quite nice expansion pack first though, as it'll set you back less, and quickly tell you if new xcom is something you'll enjoy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AttorneyAtWar Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Speaking of playing other games, is anyone playing Squad? Its a new tactical team shooter with an emphasis on realism through communication and combined arms, right now we have Russia, US, Militia (eastern European) and finally the Taliban. The British army is on the way and vehicles should be out shortly, its a lot of fun and condenses everything good about ARMA into a nice 50 v 50 package.If anybody has it shoot me a message and maybe we can get a Combat Mission/Battlefront Squad going! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a long time since I played PR. Will definitely keep an eye on it.

Even the worst rounds of PR seemed better than the best rounds of non-modded Battlefield at least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
