I found a YUUUGE lore error in Battlefleet Gothic: Armada.

Calling fighter pilots Warp Talons instead of Hell Talons.

Please grant me the Emperor's Peace so that this can never happen again.

When they used that headline, I thought it would be a Telltale game themed same as B:TAS. I'd have preferred that to the Arkham Armored Knight kinda thing.

The recent GB Quicklook of Gundam Breaker 3 makes it look like a game I could get into because Gundam models are cool as shit but I never had the energy to go down that rabbit hole.

I want to buy it. It's on play-asia but the fugging shipping is 15 bucks. LAME.

Is the internet/gaf gonna call on the Head Council Of The FGC Federation to get a DNA test and cross check it with their FGC DNA profiles to figure out who pooped and to ban them from all tournaments for life?

Because if they don't, the entire FGC complicit in the act.

nintendo is still selling wii u for $300-350 damn dollars with a 32gb hard drive and a fucking pre-installed game. meanwhile you can get an Xbox one with a 1tb hard drive and an elite controller for $275. fuck you nintendo, fuck you.

Eh, Nintendo doesn't fire sale systems. They just try to get as many suckers as they can at full price before their new hardware comes out and suckers more people.

There's definitely been more than a little bit of rumbling about how Nintendo is out to port over the bigger Wii U titles to NX, some are a definite yes others are a bit more troublesome cause they need to figure out how to bring them over sans the stupid fucking tablet.

so i was wondering when that shitty looking resident evil shooter was coming out, just out of curiosity. turns out it was released two weeks ago. i follow capcoms social media accounts and i swear they promoted the re-release of re5 more than this game

then today i see this:

http://www.usgamer.net/articles/the-waiting-game-just-how-dead-is-umbrella-corps

usgamer couldn't even give impressions because the game is already doa lololol. i mean re spinoffs are almost always complete trash, but this might be a new low. great job, Capcom!

brob · « **Reply #16706 on:** July 02, 2016, 02:33:49 PM »

giantbomb did a video on umbrella corps recently and I believe there were 32 players, in total, online?

game looks legit unfinished tho

mormapope · « **Reply #16707 on:** July 02, 2016, 02:39:48 PM »

I fell asleep watching some game shit on youtube, woke up, and some weird and jank as fuck multiplayer game was being played by a Russian. Thought it was some new F2P game made in Eastern Europe.

It was Umbrella Corps.

Positive Touch · « **Reply #16708 on:** July 02, 2016, 02:51:22 PM »

the reviews i read said using guns was pointless bc they were all weak, but the melee kills in one hit

fantastic job, much success

i never imagined there'd be a worse re game than survivor but here we are

VomKriege · « **Reply #16709 on:** July 02, 2016, 07:13:22 PM »

Yeah Umbrella Corps is jank as hell. What's worse though is the total absence of personality.

There were a few Chinese and Russian operations rumored in TF2 and DOTA 2 markets before this.

Also, apparently a lawyer monitoring it who does legal advice for indies and publishers posted on Reddit saying he's received reports that Valve employees were working with these sites in collusion (Though not verified if it was a top down decision to allow it or a group of employees) so the rabbit hole keeps on going deeper and deeper

Furi looks awesome but unity+PS4 = i'll just buy it on Steam. at full price because it looks that awesome and other action game fans are praising it while reviewers are whining about difficulty, a sign of success.

Maybe already posted : some news about X-Com Julian Gollop's next game, Phoenix Point :

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2016/06/14/phoenix-point-new-xcom-julian-gollop/

I'm not at all familiar with some of those past games but it seems like a Xcom competitor but with Gollop baggage (shades of Lovecraft, Apocalypse and maybe Laser Squad ?).

I never thought the day would come where I would passionately argue that fans should pirate my game rather than pay for it, but here we are.

That's conditional, of course. If you're going to be buying Defender's Quest from us then knock yourself out! But if you're going to buy it from a grey-market key reselling site like G2A, then, please, please, just pirate the game instead.

As they tell it, Breeding Season’s disappearance from Patreon has to do with Vladimir Sandler, the former art director on the project. According to the Breeding Season devs, Sandler was allowed to retain all the rights to the art produced for the game right from the start of the project.

Rookie mistake there. That setup was bound to fuck them over ultimately, even (and especially !) if a game was released.

It's a real issue to have so much money entrusted on a whim to amateur outfits. Most disheartening is the fatalist undercurrent that consumers should just learn to suck up the losses without recourse in what appears to be gross mismanagement.
