Why is this so good

Been playing Lawbreakers free weekend, it's actually really fun! But I'm torn between buying it on sale and seeing if it goes F2P any time soon. 

Been a while since I jumped to intel, but I havent benchmarked this rig yet:

Event in question has passed, 3 year old thread. 

Takeaway for me so far:

Battlefront II actually looks good, might pick it up near release.

New Wolfenstein looks incredibly fun, can't wait. I should play Old Blood before then.

Bethesda's VR things look good, interested to see how they run. Not a huge fan of the price tags though. 

Dishonored expansion looks sale-worthy. Concerned they'll go more combat oriented this time. 

HZD DLC/Expansion sounds fantastic. Just have to beat the main one first.

And we got a new Crash trailer. 

5/10. I found things to be excited about, but nothing really jumped at me.

Now that tons of people are moving here from SPUF, I've seen some complaints of active thread being hard to find. If I remember correctly, wasn't there a frontpage sidebar thing that showed the most recent threads that we disabled because we didn't think we needed it? It might help with the transition if something like that was added back.

Should be there now. Both most recently started threads and most recently posted threads.

There can't be any mayhem because it is clearly June now.

Anyone here touched The Surge? I've sunk a few hours into it and I can't really figure out if I like it, the gameplay is real meaty and combat is great but the absolute balls to the wall hard difficulty is offputting, especially if it ramps up towards the endgame.

That looked really interesting to me. I haven't played any other souls game, but I love the theme and aesthetic.

No we get paid in livers.

That upsets me.

I'm upset that you're upset.

How are those Savior kills going? :^)

Kill me now. I swear the medic kills will be faster.

I still play maybe monthly, keep up with my outfit, etc. I'm really just working toward medic arax. Haven't had much new added in quite a while, the art guys are busy.

not asking you to take pics of the rest of the room if you dont wanna, but how much room do you have for VR?

 

both my bedroom at home and at uni have zero space to move around in

Whole play area is roughly 8'x8', the pad is 6'x6'. It's not exactly roomy, and I've hit the wall a few times, but it certainly has enough room in general. 

Haven't posted mine since getting the house I think...

If you're going to have SPUFers coming here, it might be worth switching to email verification rather than admin verification.

I believe our email server is broken, so we do admin verification. I'll watch the queue but if I forget or anyone asks have them yell at me in discord.

It's a year of shooters for me. I'll go with top 3, because picking one really limites the other two. It's really close to a three way tie.

Overwatch: Literal GOTY. Catching up on TF2 in terms of rate played. However, I had some IRL people that add to the enjoyment, as there were a few times I could see myself in a content drought without that aspect. 

DOOM: Just pure, fantasic fun. Still load it up just to rip and tear. Soundtrack was fantastic, Gameplay was super strong. 

Titanfall 2: Pretty late into the year for this one, but just a really nice, fluid, innovative shooter. SP gets high marks. Not quite doom level, but for it's genre, very strong. Really enjoyed playing it. 

Honorable mention: XCOM 2. Strategy isn't really my thing, but ayyliens are. Also had fun porting some helmets.

A mod is never early. He changes the theme precisely when it is needed.

Dang, 3 pages of TIAM, it's been a while.

So how's the weather?

Edit: Dang, hope everything turns out alright Rammite, keep us updated.

When competitive came out I was playing with a few guys and we had this one guy on our team that insisted that Symetra was a healer. Like, he came on voice comms and told me "Hey, I like supports, but we don't need two healers, we already have a mercy" I tried to explain to him that Symetra wasn't a healer, but wasn't having it, so I switched off, and we lost. Guy talked shit about our team afterwards (the other two people I was playing with), ((that he knew were with me because pre-game showed us as two three-stacks)), to which I replied, "you know, a builder, like symetra would have been good, but I swapped off at your request." and he was like "oh, no you were fine, those other people were shit."

To this day the other two with me immediately say "we don't need two healers, binary" when I pick symetra.
