I'm playing - or currently trying to play - too many games.

EVE Online: I log on, read mails, check contracts (private to me that i have arranged) or the general system, fit a ship or two, jump clone around and pretty much station spin.  Difficult to find stuff to do that I want to do :(

Lord of the Rings Online: Log on, play Beo, miss the sky, log off him, log on an alt and eventually start raging about changes to stuff being easier and log off;

Warhammer AoR: Got a slayer going, its fun in the lower bracket.  Not sure if I'll go past T3 though, game is massively fucked in T4 even now;

Planetside: Tower assaults get fucked by my engineer of doom and boomer packs placed EVERYWHERE :D

EUIII: Trying to figure this out slowly;

MTW2: Playing as a now Muslim England in a game ive been playing for about a year now (I extended the turn numbers massively :D).  Its damn awesome having slowly but surely changed the dominant religion. The rebellions in my contintental provinces rocked :D

GTA IV: I have a controller now, and its much easier to play, moves smoother. I wish they hadnt done it as a stright console port and therefore fucked the only good way to control stuff;

Fallout 3 + all released DLC: As freeform an rpg as I can get recently, its great fun;

Simcity 4: My old "boredom" fall back. I load up a city and tweak a little more, rebuild downtown, flatten the po'homes and generally act like Boris on E :D

I'm trying to play Blood Bowl online.

If that fails, there's patience on my PDA that I regularly indulge in.

150 seconds high score.

EVE - I just about manage to visit it daily to update skills :-[
LoTRO - havent played it for a while but account is still active.
Civ 4 - Love this game . Its my chill out game that i use to wind down when ive had a rough day / week  :P
LoTR 'the battle for middle earth II colelctors edition' - not a bad stand alone game that occassionally intrudes.

Play time is almost non existant at present so not much of any of these gets done   :'(

Was thinking how I met you guys at WAR, and moved on to EvE with some other ppl. Others moved other directions or moved on after EvE, which I meet again in still other games (or not).
Every member is a line, crossing other members, sometimes once, sometimes more often.
Some lines never cross, but are still on the same sheet of paper, which is HoJ.

nvm, I'm bored, and when I am bored silly thoughts pop up in my mind.

Logging into EvE spinning ships in station sometimes buying a new one and fit that. Can also spend hours reading and trying out fits in eft.
Trying once again to level in lotro. got a guardian to 29 then got frustrated again by the whole cant hit stuff in melee when it moves and is now trying to pick between hunter, lore master, minstrel or just carry on with the guard. And i still havent done Great Barrows. :)
WoW i only log in for a raid now and then. Waiting for patch so i can start farming heroics for new badges and do the new dailies for argent tourny. I expect to get bored again fast.
Looks like my plan to explore eq2 kinda died....
Waiting for Aion to launch. :)

AoC seemed ok but not really bothered for it (bought the game for a £5 from amazon incl 30 days play so my give it a go at some point but no intention of subscribing)
LOTRO - I never bothered with once the free trial ended just seemed like a clunky lesser version of wow to me
WAR - see above

so i play abit of pro evo and sf4 on me xbox and thats bout it.

Blood Bowl (single player while I'm getting to grips with the game again, I somewhat figured out my old team the elves again and now trying a running team with Chaos - they seem easier tbh)
And Dawn of War +2 expansions. Waiting for DOW2 to arrive, which I picked up at a bargain from Play.
That's all :)

Nothing right now, too busy building my Lego Death Star :P

When not knee deep in Lego, CoH, though the content has got a bit stale.

WoW Ally side also. Alleviating the boredom until August 2nd when I get my CO beta key. Its mildly entertaining doing some of the Ally side quests, some nice lore there, especially Dragonblight.

I did uninstall and everything, but reinstalled because I want to calculate how much my account would be worth if I sold it if I'm honest.

However, started tooling about on Kurtt, and have been mildly amused by the new (to me) ally content. Won't be on much once I get into CO though, unless its crap :D

Make sure to sell a long time before the next expansion then :) I could probably have sold for a couple of 100 quid halfway through TBC (4x T5 when most people were still running Kara at one point) but since wotlk launched it's pretty much junk. :)

Not that I'd sell it anyway. Ebayers are lame :)

So, I am back from holidays and promptly picked up blood bowl.
I resubscribed to WoW for some obscure reason. It is the only MMO I am palying.
All in all I am playing less computer games now but Blood Bowl is the topper.

Bit of a Post-Mortem Communication here, but figured why not :)

MMOwise:

Lotro - occasionally logging in to this.  Trying to find a way to play without raging about often silly stuff (or this focus with "endgame"...);

EVE - My major love, when I have the time.  need to get a stack of ice mined before I go, but even as the perfect AFK occupation, its soul destroying.  Got a few new shinies I can fit and fly though;

WAR - T1 goodness has me good and proper, its great fun. If leaves me feeling like Ive had a chinese half an hour ago;

Singleplayer:

Playing nothing but Dragon Age at the moment...

mmo wise

played aion was ok to start with very pretty my quests seemed to dry up at lvl 28 or so not going back.

playing age of conan as always tortage in great and making a female char and running round naked cant be beat(hmmm at my age i should have grown out of such things but been male i suppose we never do) but will stop playing again once my gamecard runs out.

playing lotro again started a loremaster only been playing again a couple of days up to lvl 13.

started the trial of warhammer will play this very casually but its good to log on and do some mindless pvp.

i think i get bored with mmo's really quickly which seems to be linked with how many ppl are playing in whatever incarnation of the guild im in.

single player just dragon-age at the moment the next single player i try will be diablo 3 next year sometime.

MMO:

Eve
WOW when my girl is up for it.  1 or 2 times a week, maybe.

Other:

Borderlands - fun rpg fps, fairly mindless and entertaining
MW2 - the fanaticisim around this game keeps me away.  I have played a few rounds but cant seem to get into it.
Dragon Age - fantasy just isnt doing it for me right now so I cant get into it.
Title: Re: What are we all currently playing?
Post by: Dlarah on November 14, 2009, 10:40:21 PM
I had same problem as Keggi on Aion with quests running out just before lvl 30 wich kinda put me off the game. There was talk about a patch comming that will increase xp from quests in the 20-30 range but thats kinda late now for me.  :(
Also im not much for pvp so endgame isnt going to be great there anyways... A pve focused game with the world, classes and animations would be pretty awesome.

Slowly leveling in lotro again, just got to 30 with my champ!

Been playing a bit of wow recently, once next patch with all new instances comes out im probably going to be all into farming those a little while. I think the main reason i keep coming back to this game is a great guild and the game isnt that bad as long as you look away from some things.

In EVE i am only popping on to start skills and start jobs on my research alt.

With the talk about subs getting you beta access from AoC and realising i had a active sub running i logged in and actually did a level here. 45 conqueror now :)

Well into LotRO at the moment. Enjoying my 52 Captain and my Hunter in various guises.

Waiting on Cryptic to add more content for Champions Online, both endgame and levelling. The former for my lvl 40, and the latter for my legion of alts. Really want to level them, but I'll be seeing the exact same content each time, and I ain't cool with that currently.

Having said that, rolled an Ice hero, Frostshock, the other day, and thats been fun. Ice Slide takes some getting used to!

Most of my current gaming appear sto be

Borderlands

if you havnt played it give it a go its a typical story lite FPS/ RPG lite shooter, but it is awesome fun especially in multiplayer.

What am I up to since my return - gaming wise that is?

EVE - obviously, games my main squeeze now ;)
WoW - I wander about on various characters do some quests, enjoy the world and the way it is now, look forward to the world itself changing, get bored & log off because I wont instance queue, raaaaaaaaaaaaaaage at upcoming gameplay changes!!
L4D, L4D2 - need to play these more;
Lotro - Need to play more, maybe my alts need some love, Im not really into moria with beo just not enjoying it - and grinding his weapons sucks;
Disc based games - dvd drive on main rig is playing up so I cant play CIV4 alot :( or HOI III :( :(  yes I could get a new one, but :effort:
MechWarrior4 - Need to sit down and sort a control schema for my Windows Live Gamepad.
WAR - Id be using the 2 free weeks if I could get fucking americans to sort my password issues out!

You guys?

Oh and some AVP classic which I got off steam very cheap last week.

Post by: Dlarah on July 11, 2010, 02:17:22 PM
Up until a few days ago i could have said just gearing up alts in WoW as i finished leveling all classes to 80 and doing some ICC raids whenever i can...
But the RealID thing made me log into Lotro and now i spent all weekend leveling my guardian so got from 30 to 36 and still climbing. :)
Also got a few games i need to find time for on the ps3. Gotta finish up the main story on FF13 and havent even started on Red dead redemption, God of war 1-3, Heavy Rain, Uncharted 2, Assasins creed 2 and Prince of persia the forgotten sands(A few weeks of broken internet could help there).
Barely taking the time to log into EvE to start skills now so been thinking about stopping subs on the 2 research accounts at least, but i might have subbed them for 6 months not long ago anyways.  :D

Been having a knock about in Champions Online, as I'm a lifer there. Been having a bit of fun, as they seem to have done a melee pass, and added some more content (unfortunatley, one whole zone of new content is waaaay to spiritistic for me :( )

DL'd the WAR client and rolled a new Squig Herder for laughs. At least it seems to run ok on my rig now. WP is still boring (yawn).

Looking forward to my free week of LoTRO if I'm honest. Get back levelling my Hunter and maybe, just maybe, grind Kurtt through to Mirkwood.

For the Xbox, I finally got round to buying Mass Effect *shame*, so chugging through that on and off.

LOTRO and Dominions 3 for me. In LOTRO I started a new captain (who joined TLA, as HoJ always seemed empty) to play together with a couple friends who started LOTRO. In Dominions 3 I've been running a series of newbie MP games for people on Paradox forums, have seemed to be rather popular :)

WoW - occasionally when my girl is in the mood for it.  Shes not pleased with the upcoming changes so that may die off.
Eve - just skill runs for the time being
World of Tanks - closed private beta;  its in the 'novelty' stage at the moment but I dont see much substance behind it

Lots of work shit taking up my time so my gaming is limited.

Transformers: War for Cybertron. Spent the first chapter jumping into action alongside Megatron as Decepticon soldier Brawl, occasionally transforming into a tank, blasting and bashing unlucky Autobots with a neutron assault rifle and a giant glowing mace, and thinking that air superiority is a bitch when its the other side that has it. Spent the second chapter strafing the hell out of Autobots as Starscream, flanked by Thundercracker and Skywarp, and thinking that I'm not very adept at this air superiority thing.

I downloaded the demo for that on my 360. Only have access to multiplayer. How does the single player campaign play out? Any good?
Title: Re: What are we all currently playing?
Post by: Taith on July 12, 2010, 02:56:29 PM
Enjoying it so far. It's set very early in the war and the Decepticon campaign is first. For the first chapter, Megatron leads an assault on an orbital science facility commanded by some fellow named Starscream by crashing a starship into it. He's chasing something called Dark Energon (the story isn't taking itself too seriously). Once Starscream sees Megatron can control it he switches sides (Jetfire is not impressed) and you head back down to Cybertron to reactivate an energon bridge. The third chapter is a full scale assault on the Autobot city-state Iacon. I haven't started that yet, but it strikes me as an ideal time for the really big Transformers to start appearing, as promised in the spectacular intro movie.

I had the choice of actually playing Megatron in the first chapter, but I wasn't sure what the game would expect of me if I took command of the squad. Nothing much really, it turns out, which is why I played as Starscream in the second chapter. The characters tend to argue amongst themselves while you're running around. Not so noticeable in the first chapter - I mean who gives Megatron attitude? - but Starscream and his Sweepers insult each other quite a bit. I have also found myself starting to switch back and forth between robot and vehicle modes a lot more as I get comfortable with the control system. This is the first non-MMO I've played in something like six or seven years, and even then I mostly played WoW, so I've had some muscle memory to overcome.

Also, being able to transform into a jet is really handy for when you accidentally jump off into space, or over a really, really long drop. A tank, not so much.

I think the Autobot leader at the moment is Zeta Prime, who we are likely to kill off at the end of the Decepticon campaign I suspect, setting the stage for the Autobot campaign and the ascension of an Autobot officer named Optimus Prime...

Suprisingly, WAR. Really enjoying it this time round. Granted, I'm not in Tier 4, but I may just have a peek and see if I can leach enough RP's to get somewhere.

I'm actually playing it like a PvP game this time, rather than just WoW with a Warhammer skin. Running smoother too.

So much so in fact, that I've just subbed up...

Elv, download the War for Cybertron multiplayer demo. Currently playing that and really enjoying it. Plus, we can have a chinwag over Xbox Live.

In fact, you should all download it and we'll get stuck in! Planning on picking up the full game come payday.

I've given up on WoW. With HoJ disappearing, that was the final straw. I had been failing to keep up with anybody on any of my toons (although I did get my pally to 70 or so much to my own shock) and everything just took too much damn time. It ended up feeling like work rather than fun.

Not been on WAR since T1 went F2P. Was fun while it lasted but we didn't have much in common. It wasn't WAR, it was me. I was just not in "that place" in my life at the time.

Dabbled with Champions Online. Great fun but never really got into it and spent too much time defending some numpties in a log cabin from a zombie invasion so never levelled properly (spotting a trend?).

Tried Eve a number of times. It's gorgeous but I think i'm too shallow to commit :D

Occasionally play Dragonage. God that game is beautiful.

Would love an urban fantasy MMO. I'm thinking of The Dresden Files or something based on Charles Stross' books.

Maybe if there was an MMO with 1 class and 1 race especially for altoholics like me...

The original HoJ. Back in the days when Molten Core was the ultimate raid. Back then, rogues knew their place, there were no huntards and everyone got on very well.

Them were the days. You young pups don't know how good you've got it with your 10 man raids, flying mounts and epics out the wazoo...

DC Universe Online. My hero is level 25 now. I still get a kick out of levitating someone into the air and having a car smash into them from the side. No idea what I'm going to do with him at level 30.

The other night I saw a Green Lantern fly in, manifest an Apache attack chopper construct and blast the hell out of a group of mobs. I'm pretty sure I burst out laughing. So yeah, chalk up another reason why I'll buy the Green Lantern DLC at some point.

I downloaded City of Heroes on the weekend to try it as well. It's sort of growing on me, though it's showing its age. After DCUO, I find it weird to stand there waiting for cooldowns to finish. And I really don't like not being able to swivel the camera by left-clicking.

I'm half-certain you're supposed to be able to go straight to a Premium account if you've ever paid money for CoH, and I bought CoV when it came out. Haven't figured out how to prove that yet.

Planetside Universe (PSU) is a fan site for Planetside 1 and Planetside 2.

MMOFPS game.  PS1 was my first mmo way back when.

In other news, the free 30 days they are giving any former PS1 account just landed for me.  So if any one here ever played - even Planetside Reserves - then check your relevant soe accounts.

I remember hearing of that one. Not my cup of tea, really. I have fond memories of Half Life and Counterstrike, of popping my head out of cover for half a second and getting it blown off by my brother armed with a sniper rifle. And I never even knew he was there.

That boy could snipe people on dial-up.

Star Trek Online is pulling me in deeper. It's got plenty of mini-games to keep me occupied. There are 6 chapters of story and I'm level 34 and I've only completed one of them.

Reminds me of what someone else said here on the forums about DCUO just missing something. Not enough mini-games, I'd say.

The Duty Officer system offered me a mission to entertain a Caitian scientist, which required a bottle of Saurian brandy. I checked the exchange and they were going for 3K a pop. Mulled it over, decided I could afford it, tried to buy it and discovered some clever dick had pulled them all off and reposted them for 11K. I passed.

A few days later I discovered you can buy them on DS9 for 20 credits.

I bought three.



I'm moving house in a week and will have an internet outage, but afterwards I think it's time to embark on that greatest of adventures: finding a fleet (guild). That's always fun.

How is it good?

I honestly cannot tell you. It just is. The combat is reasonably basic, the side missions can be repetative, the UI is awful and its not exactly brimming with innovative features but It's just a LOT of good honest fun.

It feels satisfying speccing as a sniper type and clearing out a camp before going in to grab the objective, or managing to survive on a thread of health when faced with 9 or 10 enemies (although its rare you do survive). Its a very challenging game and if you don't get it right you can find yourself instantly overrun with enemies. the vehichles are also tonnes of fun and are actually enviromental objects in the sense that you can actually plough through a group of enemies to kill them. Not just transparent MMO mounts.

The icing on the cake is the 4 man co-op missions. they are effectivey what flashpoints are to SWTOR. They are quite simply awesome. Great environments and visual effects, hard as hell some of the bosses look very impressive. Had some right laughs in them. Overall, the game looks good has a main story arc (with cutscenes) aswell as episode missions connected to the TV show (not seen it though, so cant comment on how it integrates). And its sub free, same model as guild wars 2

Last graphics update? Dunno. At least they are not using EGA graphics anymore; the game was updated to 800x600 VGA true-colours several years ago ;)  But you don't play the game for the gfx, but for the incredible depht of the game. It is not an easy game, the UI is archaic, and the less said about the gfx the better.

Everything in the game can be used for something, and most likely to stuff you didn't even think of first (like for example, I encountered a sleeping hunter, sneaked close by and stabbed him in the back until I was sure he wouldn't move anymore; he had some nice gear, but his shirt and cloak sadly were ripped (some bastard apparently had stabbed him with a knife in the back...) so I stripped the shirt to cords, those cords I used to build myself a bow and a couple arrows and did repair the cloak). Freedom like seen in very few games (in the league of EVE and DayZ regarding freedom to do what ever you want)  and the area is big enough that it would take *very* long time to explore it all. You can choose yourself if you want to be a hunter, a trapper, a fisherman, a cannibal, a farmer, a robber or any possible combo from those. The main thing is that you need to stock up food and you need shelter because winter is coming (if you don't have some sort of cabin with a fire-place (and lots of firewood stocked up) when the temperature hits -30 degrees, well, you can kiss your butt goodbye).

Playing a Romulan in Star Trek Online. Pretty good so far. I'm looking forward to getting myself a D'Deridex warbird.

I tried creating another Klingon character. They start at level 1 now. They've made it possible to select from several different HUDs, but they've also changed the default Klingon HUD from red to orange, which I find doesn't subliminally stoke me into a ludicrous rage. So now I can play a Klingon Empire character too.

Post by: Taith on June 07, 2013, 12:42:41 PM
The three playable factions are available for all f2p players.

You can join the endgame Borg STFs with players of other factions, but levelling is faction-only. As for the fleet actions you can go into while levelling, I've never seen Klingons in Federation ones so I assume those are faction specific.

My Romulan has joined the Federation, so I can join Federation fleet actions. You can join the Klingon Empire instead if you choose.

It really is a good game isnt it.  Was blown away when I played it.

Anyone giving Rift a go now that it's f2p? I hear they're having to do server transfers to handle the sudden influx of players.

I'll be happy with Star Trek Online for a while, but I do want to give Rift a look eventually. (Assuming Wildstar doesn't come along first and consume me.)

I liked Rift, just couldnt afford it at the time. But gaming time has detoriated lately. Too much other stuff on my hands with kid, busy job and cycling.

I have rift installed - as an exsub I got a load of benefits out of the f2p.

Not much has changed and their store is really subtle.

This thread would suggest Blightweald: http://handsofjustice.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=2125.msg20692#msg20692 (http://handsofjustice.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=2125.msg20692#msg20692)

And apparently I skipped the whole Rift thing during a non gaming phase.

400 in queue. Wewt.

That threads right, just updated my char names.

I am mostly rolling guardian for now on two I have running, just to get a feel for things.

If I am not around this evening, I should be around Monday or Tuesday (eve things tomorrow and sunday)

If you ever subbed you get a few nice bonus, and if you didnt the f2p model is actually pretty good, and totally not in your face (although every vendor uses the store window, which is the only irritation except queues and idiots in chat taking up precious oxygen).

Also rifts are still great fun, the whole public quest thing to them is brilliant, especially with tons of new players coming in.

Seems better now. My queue thingy froze up. After a restart I could enter the character creation thing right away.

So it's Defiant on Blightweald?
Different server for Guardian?

Guardian - Thunderloins - Dwarf

Defiant - Speciaal - Bahmi

Made a defiant char Safranfoer (pathfinder iirc), but unsure if I should make defiant or guardian char to be able to play with you lot.
