Quoting: Liam Dawe

Quoting: Ehvis"A complex fighting system ..." and the first thing I see is MMO timers. Not the best entrance.

From that they of course mean more in how the abilities will work together, given their wording and description of different effects rather than technical on jumping around and mashing lots of buttons to perform special manoeuvres.

Might be that there are in depth choices for character builds which can make a lot of difference. The the first impression is based off the description and the video. And from the video I get the distinct impression that this is a turn based combat system disguising as action. Which might be really good, but not something I would call a "complex fighting system".

However, there is a demo, so I'll give it a go and see how it feels!

Quoting: NanobangIs there a map? I need some sort of in game mapping function in these games. I've never finished Subnautica for this (and a couple other reasons, if I'm honest).

I recently saw 'The Shallows' [External Link] and the thought of swimming around in shark-infested waters is simply terrifying --- which, of course, makes me want to play it even more. :woot: Wishlisted!

No map when I last played it. In fact, finding your way was very difficult. From a distance everything looks the same and it's easy to not navigate back correctly and find yourself lost. It is really part of the game though. I try to put down things on islands that point the way back to the previous island I was. The sense of disorientation and tension on the water is very well done.

Quoting: LinasWasn't Iron Danger supposed to get a Linux version? What happened to that?

I think that was Iron Harvest.

This is what happens when developers solve the problem instead of management. Good to see that this can still happen. Although I highly doubt that performance will be equal (UE4 has never managed that), it should be enough. Looking forward to this one!

Quoting: silmethBut DX12 also works on Win10 – so unfortunately I think they might push for DX12 with the argument that then it works both on PCs (actually only on Win10, but that’s PC for them, isn’t it?) and on XBox.

That would still be forcing that DirectX on a company that has never used DirectX in their existence. This would be a monumental waste of money that might even break id software. Not so sure that even microsoft would do that for a relatively small gain.

I'm not expecting massive improvements for their first Vulkan version, but every little bit can help. I don't have too many problems with it myself. It's mostly building/edit mode that seems to drop frames, but that can be worked around by building paused.

Quoting: The_LuxI hope for a sale of the game Warhammer Underworlds Online.
I've missed the last one by a few days and since them I'm waiting for the next one. :)

Right after this should be the Halloween sale, so only one month to go.

It's good to know people take the time to pet their pet for each 50 murders.
