gatnom Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 22, 2014 -> 08:15 AM) Having never played Blood Dragon, I will just say that Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep was absolutely phenomenal and it's by far my #1 DLC. Bethesda has had some really good DLC too between the Elder Scrolls and Fallout too. I remember my buddy and I playing through that one on whatever the hardest difficulty was right after we hit max level, and it would take us a good 15-20 minutes sometimes to clear an area. It was definitely one of my favorite parts of playing that game. Speaking of Boarderlands, has anybody played the pre sequel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quin Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I might get the Watch_Dogs DLC after I finish Shadow of Mordor. Aiden is just...so bad. Meanwhile, Shadow of Mordor is so perfect. I've dropped 8 hours in and I forgot to do the missions for a while. The Nemesis system is just so addicting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm tempted to pick that up even though I'll probably never get to play it as thoroughly as it's intended to be played. $33 bucks right now on a bundle site through Steam.

I have a friend who has it and I was HEAVILY suggesting he let me borrow it, but be didn't pick up on it, or didn't want to let me have it. I got about 6 nights of free rentals from Red Box though, so I might try it out. I still want to try and rent AC4 and finish that up though, so we'll see.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Also, picked up Madden 15 yesterday for $21 (after my $23 return on WatchDogs). I think I am regretting doing my Connected Franchise thing online. I am CONSTANTLY losing connection to the EA servers, which means it won't let me do anything in my franchise. Can't play at all without being connected. I'm wondering what is going to happen when I lose connect mid-game, or during the post-game load. Will it just lose my entire game? That's going to be a real game killer when I lose a 40 minute game because the server drops out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Day 2 of playing Madden, and again I am having trouble connecting to EA servers. Just like last time, I was able to get on and play 1 game fine, but then right after that first game, it could not longer connect to the servers. If this becomes a routine, I'm returning this garbage. But to the actual gameplay now....what's the point of the precision running stuff? So I didn't realize there was even any sort of precision anything until I tried the Gauntlet thing and it recommended I press down on the right stick to regain my balance if I am stumbling? I was confused what that meant, so I did those skills trainer things and saw the precision running thing with L2. But every move it had me perform was already a move I could do. I could spin, I could juke, I could dive, I could accelerate. So why does it want me to hold L2 when I do? I'm assuming it makes it more likely for me to break a tackle while holding L2 versus not holding L2....but why even make that distinction then? And it's not even like a more exaggerated juke or spin...it's the same exact thing, but it just works better? Why? What am I missing here? It sounds incredible redundant, like, why would I ever NOT hold down L2 when doing this? Why ever juke without doing a "precision juke"?

I neglected them but you get powers that you'll need to deal with orcs. You start off all powerful, but damn does it get hard at some point. I'm finding some of the warchief missions to be a little too easy but also annoying. Basically I just sit on a roof somewhere and pick them off slowly (those without range attack blocks anyway), but then I have to wait around for the mob to leave so I can pick up the rune. I can kill the guy in 10 minutes, then it takes 40 minutes to get the rune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shysocks Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 In case anybody out there ever played / still plays Titanfall, the game has been reinvigorated. Last week they put out a big update that includes a new horde mode-styled game type, new achievements, a new ranking system, and much faster lobby loads. Today, the game is half off and the DLC (9 maps) is $8.25 instead of $25. I'm assuming it's all motivated by the looming Halo release, but for anyone who's still a fan of the game it's a good time to jump back in.
