Same. I see myself coming back every so often to max out the new warbond release.
Beyond that, I probably will shelve it until they introduce the Illuminates...

While it doesn’t affect me since I already have PSN account, it’s going to suck for players in countries where PSN is not available (Philippines and Russia come to mind) where a decent chunk of players get locked from the game they paid money to purchase.
Sony corporate greed trying to accelerat...
re: Shogun - Official Series Discussion Thread **Spoilers**

A fantastic capstone to a fantastic series. I turned to my fiancé about halfway through ep.10 and said “this is a very confident finale” with how it was taking its time showing everyone’s reaction to Mariko’s sacrifice.
The show runners clearly had a vision with the greater emphasis on Mariko and...

Glad to help. It’s been a blast, and if you love Starship Troopers, the game is one big love letter to it.
#0376-0271 is my friend code. Only level 17 myself, but happy to jump in and ease some of the grind until you get access to the Breaker shotgun. Even nerfed, it’s the first weapon that make...

I’m with you, but it seems like this model is going to become all the more frequent for live-service games. They can release what amounts to essentially a public beta for close to full price, and then drop fixes that could’ve been solved with a longer runway of development. Not saying it’s right, bu...

The core gameplay loop is genuinely fun, even for solo players, but some later game content and upgrades will be difficult to grind without a friend group or willingness to tag along with randoms.
It’s a game that’s absolutely better in a group of friends with a common play style, but as far as l...

In Tampa, but the Scottish American Society here has a big whiskey tasting and poetry slam every year that’s lots of fun. If you have any Scots heritage, highly recommend checking out your local heritage society, many clubs do really cool events year round....
re: Arsenal 2023/24 Season Thread - Rice, Rice, Baby
Posted by gulfcoasttiger5 on 11/15/23 at 12:24 pm
Purchased the Red tier Arsenal membership via their app and there was pretty much nothing available. However, the membership also gets you access to the ticket exchange, and that’s how we got them.
Tbh, it’s pricey almost anyway you slice it. Looked at aftermarket/StubHub as well and it’s just i...

Posted by gulfcoasttiger5 on 11/15/23 at 9:15 am
Great advice! Much appreciated!
Match kicks off at 3 PM local, so definitely planning on heading down to the stadium area early for a pint or three before heading in.
I read the entire area around Emirates is one big Arsenal hub, so I doubt we’ll have trouble finding a pre/post-match watering ...

Any tips/match day recommendations for those who have seen a match at the Emirates?...

Really looking forward to the A Game of Thrones mod for CK3. All of my CK2 experience came in that mod, and I think CK3 translates even better to that world with the greater focus on RP, characters, and scheming....
re: WW2 recommendation for pre-teens

I was about his age when my parents started letting me read non-fiction works like Band of Brothers or The Simple Sounds of Freedom, which are both great.
However, there’s a young adult historical fiction book that I remember loving as a kid, called Soldier X, that I will recommend to anyone....

re: Any games like Supreme Commander 2?
Posted by gulfcoasttiger5 on 2/9/21 at 1:01 pm
The RTS genre isn’t nearly as popular as it used to be, sadly, so I’ve gone back to playing classics like Red Alert 2, Dawn of War, and even some Halo Wars for a more modern take. RA2 still the GOAT, imo....
re: Mass Effect Trilogy: Legendary Edition - Release Date: May 14

Interesting. I do remember Pinnacle Station being the ME1 DLC I spent the least amount of time with. I did like Bring Down The Sky, though, as a bridge between ME1 and ME2, so as long as that’s included I’m good....

Pretty jazzed about this!

The journey of ME3 was by and large spectacular, but a lot of people, myself included, couldn’t get over the fact that the ultimate choice of your grand space opera boiled down to what color filter you wanted over your ending cinematic.
I don’t know many people that think ME3 itself was a bad ti...
re: Mass Effect Legendary Edition Discussion Thread
Posted by gulfcoasttiger5 on 1/11/21 at 10:49 am
I’m mostly excited for a revamped ME1. It’s probably my favorite story in the series, and was really only held back by some wonky gameplay choices (that ME2 later improved). I’m sure they won’t fix all of the Mako, gunplay, and texture/uncanny valley issues, but I’m pretty jazzed about this rereleas...
