Title: Other PC Games
Post by: {212th} Ldr. Norris on November 16, 2012, 03:57:50 PM
I have been trying to find another PC game to play to entertain myself during the times no one is on SWBF. What are some of your guys favorites? Beside SWBF of course  :D

Besides SWBF? Um... How about... SWBFII! :D

I play Minecraft, but only the Classic game. It has online, and all you need to do is make an account on minecraft.com. Then, you can choose to play Classic either on the site, or by buying the Classic version and playing it on your PC. I'm not on that much nowadays, but you might by chance happen to see me on, as GoldMan27.

Empire At War w/ Forces of Corruption. Alien vs Predator. Sry im bored as well. also do you have a xbox 360 Norris if so you could play that.

perfect timing, got bored today and played a game I havent played for a while and did it online, its called dirt track racing 2. If you are a NASCAR nut like me NASCAR racing 2003 season might be the solution ( even tho its 50$-100$ used). MX vs ATV unleashed is fun too.

I highly recommend Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 1 & 2. Also, SWBF2 isn't a bad game either  :tu:

For non-star wars stuff, I'd have to ask what kind of genres you like, and then suggest games from there.
Title: Re: Other PC Games
Post by: RepComm on November 16, 2012, 06:56:25 PM
SWBFII, RepublicCommando (only good in single player, and if you know how to mod) and Knights of the Old Republic was a very good game!
Mine Craft is okay.
Title: Re: Other PC Games
Post by: Carbon27 on November 16, 2012, 06:58:19 PM
I bought old republic 1 & 2  from goodwill brand new, I plan to sell it on Ebay, I would like to play it, but, my computer will most likely not run it or play it slowly. Do I take the money, or risk it and open it up and try it out?
Title: Re: Other PC Games
Post by: Jamman on November 16, 2012, 07:18:56 PM
Without a doubt, its Dayz. An incredible zombie apocalypse mod from the game Arma2, thats about 30$. The creator, Dean Hall, is currently making a Standalone which is expected to be a low price, around 10$.

its definitely worth the money, everyone should at least try it. www.dayzmod.com and www.dayzdb.com

I suggest watching  Sacriel's youtube channel. I learned alot of the game by watching his vids and livestreams.  http://www.youtube.com/user/sacriel42?feature=g-all-u

DayZ does have MP, it's a major mod for ArmA2, which does already have MP. :P
Title: Re: Other PC Games
Post by: Jamman on November 16, 2012, 09:22:00 PM
Yeah sorry if i wasn't clear, but Dayz is for the MP. If there is SP Dayz, I have never tried it, and it would probably suck..because zombies aren't the only threat, but its really another player dressed in a ghillie suit, laying down in a ditch between some weeds 700 yards away aiming at your head... whose going to drop you faster than anything else.

Lucky man! Specialy, if wife, agree to play in videogames with you.

My PC is overload, so I have not much space for other videogemes, and usaly play on PS2.
Still, I have installed SW Republic Commando, SWTFU2, SWKOTOR Sith Lords and like them. Some times ago, I has BioShock, and found this game, also very nice.

No seriously, i just love Knights of the old Republic (I and II), Warcraft (is a fun stratagy game), Age of Empires (love it!), Call of Duty (all, apart from Black Ops) and Team Fortress.
Also games i haven't been able to get my hands on are: Republic Commando, total war, fifa, indiana jones games and such

Computer games, eh?
Blacklight: Retribution is available free-to-play (if you get this game, hit me up sometime).
You might also be interested in League.  Games in the Warcraft franchise are also fun (but I don't know anything about WoW, just Warcraft III).  StarCraft is also good from what I remember. 
I don't play Call of Duty on the personal computer, but from what I understand, a lot of people play both Call of Duty 2 and Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.

"Dope"?

Sure, it colloquially means "cool," but it has another, more illicit definition.  Don't get me started on that.  It's my addiction (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEB2oIWcLKc).

Besides Battlefront? Well, that is hard as this game was and still is my #1 <3
But I also sometimes play Minecraft or League of Legends. I also have BF2142, CS:S and TF2 (but do not play these very often anymore)
Title: Re: Other PC Games
Post by: aeria. on November 17, 2012, 01:04:54 PM
If you want to try out a new genre, get Super Street Fighter IV for the PC!! It's very fun to play online and it's an excellent game once you get around the learning curve. The graphics are pretty good and the system requirements aren't too high, I've gotten the game running on an old pentium 4 and low-end video card.

Of course that's me being biased. ^_^

Starcraft II, Dota 2, Counter Strike: GO, Borderlands 2, Team Fortress 2, Left 4 Dead 2, ARMA II, Blacklight Retribution, and Battlefield 3 are all good PC games with populated online servers. I've played some more than others but they're all good and recent PC games to play. It's a breath of fresh air if you've been playing SWBF exclusively. :)

It is the best FPS on the market... Fact.
Title: Re: Other PC Games
Post by: aeria. on November 17, 2012, 03:51:49 PM
IMO the best FPS on the market is Battlefield 3. The gameplay is very fun and the graphics are the most photorealistic of any PC game in the market right now.

But there's always new games coming out. Five years ago I thought Call of Duty 4 was the best FPS I played and that it couldn't be beat.

Title: Re: Other PC Games

Title: Re: Other PC Games
Post by: Roxas on November 18, 2012, 10:22:59 PM
Republic Commando for the Story, SWBF 2 for having a rank, Terraria for 2D minecraft, visual novels, touhoumon another world (fire red hack), Touhou 07: Imperishable Night, Beat Hazard for when I want to have a seizure (seriously, the seizure warning is justified), Touhou 06: The Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil, Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix on PCSX2.
Oh, and if you really want a challenge, play Touhou. It puts the hell in Bullet Hell. Also known as Danmaku. There is also a reason why the hardest dificulty is called Lunatic.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touhou_Project#Windows_games (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touhou_Project#Windows_games)

Combat Arms was good before, but now it is a laggy, buggy, hacker and rage-kick filled, pay-to-win game. Don't even get me started on those G36's

The Transformers games are decent, not the best though. I think probably the best Transformers games are War For Cybertron, and Fall of Cybertron, both are awesome games for the Transformers franchise.

Don't know what the Jedi Knight series is doing these days.

BF2 is still up....  ::)

The Old Republic is free-to-play now, I think...

Galaxies is officially down, but I heard folks still play on private servers.

Is it possible to still play X-Wing vs Tie Fighter online?

And SWBF is online via Tunngle and Gameranger :D
Title: Re: Other PC Games
Post by: {PLA}gdh92 on November 20, 2012, 09:02:04 AM
I think that Jedi Knight: Jedi academy still has a few hundred players on at peak times probably because unlike FPS' it hasn't got a newer equivalent. I never really got into into it because the mods that are used are so confusing on servers.

RC is pretty awesome. The story mode is great. The online however, while it is still up, is very bare.

Oh, I can't believe I forgot to say Unreal Tournament 2004. That is one of the best games. It's so fast paced and addictive.

What games do u play?
Title: Re: Other PC Games
Post by: Gold Man on June 25, 2015, 07:25:24 AM
BeamNG.Drive, Sky Nations, a little of Orion: Prelude. I still hop into Guns of Icarus Online and whatnot every so often, but my main beef right now is Sky Nations.

I recommend that game if you want to build airships, own bits of land, and build an eventual empire of ships so you can have a fleet and attack other ships.

Actually, I might be able to record some footage of the game (since the game has a small playerbase, the videos for it are either with small viewcounts, or outdated by 2 years).

In any case, if you guys do decide to buy it, my name there is Bronzium, and I am apart of the MEGA Empire. :P

If you're looking to be a pilot or command a tank, I started playing War Thunder which is free on Steam and so far a blast.  But FYI there is kind of Pay to win, as in you can upgrade planes faster with money than just using  ingame points accumulated through playing well.
