What Video Games have you been playing #13 Now with CGA graphics!

[TheMeInTeam]

I play on All-American with sliders that I got from Operation Sports that make the game play more realistically. I've tested it out and the sliders do work well. Even with a stacked team, playing a powerhouse like Alabama is going to be the game of your life, while playing a team like UMass will be a cakewalk. I'm also doing another dynasty where I try to turn Idaho (the worst team with the fan made 2019 rosters) into a national champion. With the realistic sliders on, I actually lost my season opener to North Texas, a game I would have easily won, even with Idaho, with the default sliders.

The biggest challenge to my Road To Redemption dynasty though is going to be coaching contracts. Ohio State demands I win at least 12 games a year or I'll be on the hot seat and might get fired. I could turn coaching contracts off, but that's no fun.

I don't think sliders can cover everything wrong with the game, going off past experience playing with supposedly realistic sliders from operation sports in Madden leagues. If you make the game drop enough passes, shed enough blocks too fast, and random fumble despite covering you can make it hand you RNG losses, but that's about it. And make no mistake; skewing sliders to such an extent creates *completely* unrealistic per game stats while trying to force "realistic" results.

I've seriously seen people try to claim that tuning sliders to make players drop more interceptions is "realistic". Said in a game where it was already possible to drop more interceptions in one game than some QBs get in a full NFL seasons. THAT supposedly needed more dropped picks to be "realistic" lol. Maybe the sliders you see are different, but given the game involved let's just say I have doubts.

Vampire: Bloodlines 2 has been delayed indefinitely. This might be a good thing, in the end, leaving it in the oven another 6 months or whatever. Frankly, I wish more PC game developers would take more time. But I'm probably looking forward to this one even more than Cyberpunk 2077. I want it now. *tantrum*

I find the "crimes" of these Bandit Slugs to be absolutely hilarious ...

 

[hobbsyoyo]

Oh my god you can't just out @aimeeandbeatles as a bandit slug like that

I feel the same way. The smug self-satisfaction of some on the Paradox forums who'd been predicting a delay was irritating.
If its needed its needed but its nothing to be pleased about.

It could be much worse, the publisher could demand that it be released finished or not by the original date......

Wait, I'm a bandit slug?

I think he confused online quizzes with online surveys!

I do online quizzes though ... eek!

 

[Broken_Erika]

I knew it! The Bandit Slug was Framed!

 

[TheMeInTeam]

This usually isn't supposed to happen.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

Well this isn't embarrassing at all...

Granted, I did leave it running in the background more than once.

Aimee what kind of solitaire? Is it the stupid ad-supported one from Winders 10 or the old one? If the old one, where'd you get it?

I occasionally need to reinstall it after Windows Update, so keep the installer handy.

You can even install Purble Place!

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

Yup

I need to play it again soon.

 

[Arakhor]

Only 10 hours of playtime? I'd have thought it be a lot more than that.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

10 hours since I got my new computer. But I've been playing all my other games.

Yeah playtime can be deceptive that way. For example, I have hundreds of hours in Civ3, but you'd never know that by looking at my Steam profile. It says I've only played it for something like 20 hours or so. That's because I originally had a non-Steam disc version of Civ3 that I then purchased on Steam after I lost the discs in a move. It was that disc version that I put in most of my hours on.

And then it's sometimes easy to leave certain games (coughSolitairecough) running in the background for hours.
