OT: Video Game Thread Part VIII

[cody275]

80 pace will be fodder in a few weeks but the chem boost is much needed for now.

Not even sure that's true with how pace works this year to be honest, especially from the midfield. Congrats on the pull either way!

I also did it and got Lampard, haven't decided if I'm going to try and fit him into my line up or have him as a sub or simply forget he exists yet. I sold Rijkard (that loss hurts) to maybe fit him into a 3 CM formation instead of using a CDM but working on some mid field evo's + the bonmati loan isn't quite up yet.

Not wrong about the pace, but considering he's more of an attacker than true midfielder (no idea why they didn't give him CAM) the extra pace would have been nice. Maybe it's Beckham's lack of acceleration or agility but sometimes when you need to escape he can be sluggish. And his primary position is RM and all of his + and ++ roles are winger roles so you can't even use him like that because he can't move. 3*3* is kind of bland too. Deadball+ is nice but useless 95% of the game. It did win me a game in the 92nd minute though.

He's pretty close stats wise to that Veron that just dropped (more attacking, less defense) so I don't have to think about doing him now. I'm using him as a CM in the 4-1-3-2, which is pretty much like a CAM with 5 defenders to cover for him. I hate that you can't use attacking fullbacks this year. I tried so many different variations and you just get exposed down the wings even if you use them on balanced.

I regret not choosing that Bonmati loan. She has been eating my lunch all week. I wanted to try Hansen since I've never used her. I'm not that good with her. I benched her to try out that Inaki Williams card. He's decent for an 85.

I use Mendy as an attacking wingback this year, other side is set on full back though.

Then just have at least a midfielder play box to box to cover for it. Currently testing without using a strict CDM with it, had previously used both Holding and the Half Center sets on a CDM. Haven't really had issues with him going up much, but I've always played a lot more offensively than might be recommended (or good)

I’m playing it on the phone as a hunter/defender using a spear shield. I think im
About level 18.
Does it ever open up to being anything more than hold the basic attack button while passives proc at RNG rates?
Is there any town storage that’s not paid dlc from the caravan?
I feel like I want to like the game but it doesn’t want me to.


Anyone have a suggestion for a legit iOS game, probably paid, that doesn’t require a controller or subscription and is not one of those build you base then your army then all of a sudden it’s a multiplayer game where you can get attacked and wiped whenever.

its been a long time..and it sounds like whoever ported it for IOS is being dirty by making it way more costly than it needs to be

I hear NFL retro bowl is pretty good

Yes, but on PC years ago. Different targeting completely.

Do you have Netflix? If so, start picking through their library. There are extremely high quality full games in there like Hades, Dead Cells, GameDev Tycoon, GTAs, etc.

How’s that work? Open Netflix open the game in Netflix. Game opens in a new window?

Go to the App or Play Store and search for Netflix Games (or the name + Netflix if you know what you want). Everything marked Netflix is a full app that just accepts your Netflix login when you open it.

Dead cells is f***ing awesome. Thank you

You’ve gotta have the patience of the Buddha to stick with that game lol. I found the difficulty level to be way l, way too high as you progress…even in the early parts of the game. I wanted to love it but it’s just not for me

I think this is one of those how your brain works things. I am so, so much better at any game where I don’t have to use a joystick to move in 3d. My brain just cannot do it. D-Pad yes, joystick never. But I found Dead Cells relatively easy.

Possibly!

I find most roguelike games to be extremely challenging to begin with. That could be it too lol
