    Why bugthesda can't design a proper gun?

    Wikipedia lists 15 .32 caliber ammunition types, among them: .32 Remington: "this cartridge was once considered to be suitable for game larger than deer and black bear." .32 Winchester Special: "Ballistics are similar to the .30-30 cartridge and its .308 caliber (7.62 mm) bullet, but the...

    Turn-Based Tactics Ultimate Jagged Alliance 2 + 1.13 Mods TOPIC

    Didn't notice anything looking better with 1.13 than with Stracciatella, on Linux. Stracciatella also fixes a number of vanilla bugs, though.

    Riven ( Myst 2 )

    Protip: You've always been able to skip the CD-swapping by copying over the files from the CDs to the gamedir.

    Blizzard announced "Classic" World of Warcraft

    Nothing slow about shaman healing in WotLK, and Chain heal is a smart heal which chooses a needy target to jump to. I haven't really tried thinking too hard on optimal comps, but on Warmane's Lordaeron the basic 25-man healer comp people go for in ICC is 2 paladins, 2 shamans, 1 disco (before...

    Crispy™ WoW Rebirth: a vanilla private server

    I play on Warmane's Lordaeron. 1x rates, no item cash shop (you can only pay for race/faction change), no queues. WotLK raid scripting is very good, classes and abilities are very close to old retail (much closer than Classic nu-Wotlk), but you may run into one or two broken quests while...

    Recommend me some racing games

    Scratch that, it's moving even faster than I thought. You can get a direct drive wheel+pedals for $300 even. A review of said wheel, with some comparisons made to the others I mentioned above:

    Recommend me some racing games

    I have a Logitech G29 clonker, and it's already much better than a gamepad. Don't know your budget and if T300 (reputedly much better than G29) costs $200 now maybe that's a good choice, but keep in mind direct drive setups are getting much much cheaper lately. Fanatec's entry level bundle for...

    Jagged Alliance 3 from Haemimont Games

    I tried the demo. Not sure I can get over the fact you have to keep swirling the camera around and still not always see properly. Not quite as bad as HoMM 5 where you couldn't make troops attack enemies from a certain angle if your camera was turned the wrong way, but not good. I'm getting...

    Blizzard announced "Classic" World of Warcraft

    After 1.5 years I reached BIS on Warmane's no-P2W server Lordaeron with a fresh character that joined a new guild and progressed from 0/12 ICC to everything with it. Some Ship of Theseus stuff, there's only me and 2 other guys left of the original roster. Now if only I could quit.

    Turn-Based Tactics Ultimate Jagged Alliance 2 + 1.13 Mods TOPIC

    He didn't remove anything, but it's based on 7609 which is an old version of 1.13. So, every feature since ~2014.

    Turn-Based Tactics Ultimate Jagged Alliance 2 + 1.13 Mods TOPIC

    Stracciatella is a little better on the AI front than vanilla I think, but it's not an overhaul. It lets AI climb roofs, and I think they are less likely to hang around inside break light radii for example. The closest you'll get to a 1.13 with better AI and less fluff is 7609+AI by Sevenfm...

    Steam will stop supporting Windows 7 and 8 in 2024.

    Fuck launchers, just use this other launcher instead. What?

    Steam will stop supporting Windows 7 and 8 in 2024.

    Bottles is just another launcher. Not sure what you mean with not having to engage Wine. In order to run Windows executables you need a translation layer, i.e.: Wine or a Wine-derivative like Proton. You don't need a launcher though, you can just set up a desktop shortcut or something that...

    Steam will stop supporting Windows 7 and 8 in 2024.

    The GOG installers don't work natively on Linux, and neither do the games. That's where the "launchers" come in, if you don't care to use the terminal to run them through Wine. Steam on the other hand are in Linux distro repositories and allows you to download, install, and play games without...

    Jagged Alliance 3 from Haemimont Games

    No, not just the same target. Any further shots while the weapon is still raised. I don't remember if turning always lowered it.
