    Farming Sim 17.

    It's surprisingly addictive.

    I've set myself a goal of paying off all my debt. I've sold one of my starting tractors to pay a chunk of this down. I'm planting grain crops for the moment. While I'm waiting for them to grow I'm dabbling in a bit of forestry for spare cash. I'm just using my pickup to transport the logs.

    Once debt is paid down I will buy a mower and rent a forage wagon. I'll start with 3 sheep and gradually build up my stock.

    Will eventually aim to buy a bailer, plant grass in field 15 and wrap some some silage bails. Hopefully I can then move onto pig farming.

    We're through the looking glass here, people.

    Real farming is like that except terrible

    Just finished up Wolfemstein: The Old Blood.
    More of the same I guess, which is not a bad thing, run and gun and kill bucket loads of Nazis. Decent if you can get it for cheap..

    Playing a lot of project Argo. Gets repetitive quickly but it's a beta thing, they just updated the maps and changed the weapons. Looking forward to see where they take it, it runs ten times better than regular arma 3 which is good considering my lower middle end PC

    Just got back to it myself last few weeks. If you're on Emerald send me a PM and I can get you hooked up in a clan. I have an EU server character but I never play it because the fun clan is US mainly :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,922 ✭✭✭Wossack


    cobalt Im afraid! timezones and ping not an issue for emerald? I may consider rolling an alt if theres much lulz to be had - finding it a bit difficult to get an english speaking TR outfit, that arent too serious


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,405 ✭✭✭gizmo


    Just finished Action Henk as my lunchtime game and moved onto the original Call of Juarez now. The former was bloody great fun, it's like a cross between the best parts of Sonic and Unirally on the SNES, while the latter is holding up pretty well for a ten year old mid-budget shooter.

    Finished the Borderlands 2 and Dishonored DLCs at home recently, a mix of really good and fantastic.

    Clearing out some 360 and PS3 games in anticipation for a PS4 over the holidays. That and the fact Colonial Marines is next on the Steam queue and I may be trying to stall for time...

    I cant stop playing Battlefield 1. It reminds me of the 1st game I played online. Call of Duty 2 on the Xbox 360.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,825 ✭✭✭IvoryTower


    picked up 8bit armies this morning

    Latency has been about the same for me on EU and US servers. There are many lulz to be had in the outfit I'm in. We're actually infamous on the server because of it.

    I remember playing Tekken 2 when I was about 15 and thinking the girls were hot in it. Technology has improved so much for the better lol

    Space Pirates and Zombies 2
    Over 100 hours played, completed the campaign a few times, and it's got sandbox :)

    Lots of customisation options, and it's being updated regularly with balance fixes. Plus ye get to fly your own battlestar galactica, complete with fighters and bombers - defensive flak cannons and miniguns, clouds of missiles and torpedos, and ye can ram other ships into bits :D

    Great craic :)

    Finished titanfall2 campaign was excellent, first single player campaign ive finished in a long time.

    Other than that I'm playing titanfall 2 and battlefield 1 multiplayer, a bit of the division with some automobilista and assetto corsa thrown in.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,441 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Finished Titanfall 2 as well, and really enjoyed it.#

    Currently playing Football Manager (start league, do ****, start new league :P), Metro 2033 and some Dragon Age: Inquistion.

    I've been playing a heap of games lately, but mainly the norms of Rocket League and Fifa.

    I seen a game on IsThereAnyDeal called Otem's Defiance and got it because the art style looked cool and comic book-esque. I did a review of it here.



    Its currently €6.99 on Steam but if you're looking for it cheaper, I think indiegala are currently selling it in a bundle for cheaper.

    Here:
    https://www.indiegala.com/hump

    Its $3.49 for a bundle of games. Definitely a good price considering you get a load of other games too!

    Is the multiplayer in Titanfall 2 similar to 1, meaning very easy to dip in and out of and still get a decent game??

    S&D on MW Remastered all day long. :)

    That and have started GTAV which I'm enjoying so far.


  • Posts: 1,539 [Deleted User]


    Played a game called Brief Karate Foolish, genuinely made me question my existence.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,752 ✭✭✭pablomakaveli


    Still plugging away on Dark Souls. Finally beat O & S with the help of a summon and now banging my head against the wall thatis the Four Kings.

    Gave Anodyne a playthrough and found it to be quite good. Pretty much a classic Zelda clone but thats not really a bad thing.

    Also started playing Styx. Took about an hour and a half for to click but I'm starting to enjoy it now. Feels like a 3rd person Dishonored. Only thing that sucks is the way combat works but I think thats the games way of discouraging you from trying to fight your way through a level. I suppose since Styx is a goblin it wouldnt make sense for him to be fighting his way through loads of soldiers anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,397 ✭✭✭✭Digital Solitude


    Leave the 4 Kings and hit up Nito and Lost Izalith, easier areas to give you a bit more level room for the Four Kings.

    Are you having a particularly bad time? I always found New Londo and the 4 Kings to be the easiest of the Lords


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,825 ✭✭✭IvoryTower


    Dungeons of endless, very addictive, bargain for 3e


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,397 ✭✭✭✭Digital Solitude


    Started into Rogue Legacy again, it's a lot easier sober.

    Trying to get the Dragonborn Class, fall about 700 gold short every damm time. Would have it by now but the Hedgehogs Curse has come at me 3 times today, from 4 Shrines.

    Four Kings was just the first one I went to since I wanted the ember from New Londo. I've only made 3 attempts but died mainly from not being fully aware of the attack pattern. Might give Nito a go and see how I get on there. I havent really increased my SL much since O & S either so could do with increasing that anyway.

    No Mans' Sky at the moment, and i'm really enjoying it.

    Also, i'm trying to get through Metro 2033 on Ranger mode, but i'm on some stealth bit with giant ape monsters and it's amazingly frustrating. Not sure if i'll be able to bring myself to get through that part.

    just finished it on very easy, going to try easy now that i have a hang of it. For anyone wondering why easy, the only options are very easy and easy, with easy being very hard!


    Its similar buzz to FTL/Convoy/Space Run etc
