M'ktakh	Posted - 2010.05.28 14:45:00 - [1] Something atmospheric, challenging, and well, fun, if possible. As for the FPS part, something akin to Thief or Bioshock, no MW crap please. And PC only. Thanks!
Culmen Caldari Blood Phage Syndicate Dead Terrorists	Posted - 2010.05.28 15:02:00 - [2] Mass Effect 2. and for that matter, Mass Effect 1. ME1 was an RPG with shooter elements. ME2 was a shooter with RPG elements. Both were excellent. and further more why do i even need a sig?
Adora Femella	Posted - 2010.05.28 15:06:00 - [3] Edited by: Adora Femella on 28/05/2010 15:06:19 Well system shock 2 and Deus ex would be very similar to the examples you gave, but the games are getting to be a bit old. I don't really know any good new games outside mass effect and fallout 3, that would fit the description.
M'ktakh	Posted - 2010.05.28 15:21:00 - [4] I already played all of those
Grimpak Gallente Noir. Noir. Mercenary Group	Posted - 2010.05.28 15:55:00 - [5] Spellforce franchise Sacred 2 Gold Universe at War: Earth Assault --- Quote: The more I know about humans, the more I love animals. ain't that right.
M'ktakh	Posted - 2010.05.28 16:15:00 - [6] Uuuh, I just remembered how much I loved Europa 1400. It was kind of a "medieval life simulator", where you had to manage a medieval business (from churches to blacksmiths to taverns) with a dynasty spanning 200 years. Any other games like this on the market? I know of its successor, but It was a major dissapointment
Chaos Incarnate Faceless Logistics	Posted - 2010.05.28 17:05:00 - [7] Edited by: Chaos Incarnate on 28/05/2010 17:06:10 mount and blade edit: europa universalis 3 with fancy expansions, or most any of the paradox strategy titles excluding Hearts of Iron 3 which is still pretty wonky from what i hear also, DWARF FORTRESS _____________________ Horrors!

Looking forward to Vicky 2. Seems like I already have the cream of the genre.
Dray Caldari Euphoria Released HYDRA RELOADED	Posted - 2010.05.28 18:09:00 - [9] You haven't mentioned if you have Sins of a solar empire, if you haven't played that give it a go, you should be able to pick it up plus the 2 expansions relatively cheap.
Arec Bardwin	Posted - 2010.05.28 18:16:00 - [10] Edited by: Arec Bardwin on 28/05/2010 18:17:16 Distant Worlds 4x realtime space strategy. No demo, but got excellent reviews. Also; Fall From Heaven mod for Civ IV BTS
Flap jak Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2010.05.28 19:35:00 - [11] Edited by: Flap jak on 28/05/2010 19:38:20 EDIT: Never mind didn't read previous posts. Have you tried STALKER(FPS) or Dawn of Discovery (RTS)? __
Lance Fighter Amarr	Posted - 2010.05.28 20:11:00 - [12] Originally by: Arec Bardwin Edited by: Arec Bardwin on 28/05/2010 18:17:16 Distant Worlds 4x realtime space strategy. No demo, but got excellent reviews. Also; Fall From Heaven mod for Civ IV BTS so uh, about that. was it ever patched to allow real modding? Originally by: CCP Shadow Have you ever wished you could have prevented a train wreck before it actually happened? I need to stop this one before the craziness begins.
Zeba Minmatar Honourable East India Trading Company	Posted - 2010.05.28 20:22:00 - [13] Give ai war a spin. It's kinda like a cross between supreme commander with some tower defence elements and deep 4x strategy added in for good measure. Plus the developer is extremely active with the game on nearly a day to day basis and has implimented loads of player recommended stuff. Not the moast overwhelmingly eye candy stuffed game around but tbh you get used to the sprite oriented graphics quickly. Hell most games look exactly like a game of sup com in space with the strategic zoom and the fact your units are almost always in icon mode. Originally by: CCP Zymurgist Get off the forums and go kill someone!

Looking forward to Vicky 2. Seems like I already have the cream of the genre. :hi-five: for vicky2 yeah, apart from sins of a solar empire was mentioned above, i can't really think of anything, games recently have been so...zzz i think your best bet is to try some of the games you have with some good mods, they're occasionally out there. edit: also, i thought distant worlds was potentially interesting, but economically/strategically boring what with everything being oddly behind the scenes also also, another thought would be x3: reunion and x3: terran conflict _____________________ Horrors!

Gneeznow Minmatar Ship spinners inc	Posted - 2010.05.28 20:51:00 - [15] Nexus the jupiter incident (screenshot) - spaceship game, control a small battlegroup of ships and fight various enemies, very tactical and steep enough learning curve, looks amazing for its age Silent Storm (screenshot) - commando's style game, turn based like UFO: Enemy Unknown, except with ww2 commando team, another great looking game but slow Silent Hunter III (screenshot) - submarine sim, very tactical and very hard at its later stages Freelancer - you've probably played this but if not, its a great story and a very atmospheric game Galactic Civ II - civilization / master of orion hybrid, slow burning but good fun, a little too much micro management though
M'ktakh	Posted - 2010.05.28 21:10:00 - [16] ME1&2: check Deus Ex: hell, yeah! System Shock 2: of course Mount and Blade: proud Nord lord SoaSE: check, is Diplomacy out yet? STALKER: grabs Cossacks Vodka Nexus: check X3: check SHIII: dive! Freelancer: check Galciv II: check I remember being underwhelmed by Spellforce, though Sacred's idea always interested me, dl'ing now, but yeah, I have to agree with Chaos Incarnate, this year has been very boring for a man a my tastes. I think I'm going to reinstall Arcanum and VTM:bloodlines and save the world for the n-th time:)
Gar Ddhen Gallente Random Ventures	Posted - 2010.05.28 23:43:00 - [17] RPG wise you could try Dragon Age Origins/Awakening.
Ace2001 Caldari S E A R	Posted - 2010.05.28 23:54:00 - [18] I would just like to throw a vote towards Sword of the Stars. A 4x type game, but I love it. It's available on steam as well, though I'm not sure if steam is still over-charging for it or not.

Hell most games look exactly like a game of sup com in space with the strategic zoom and the fact your units are almost always in icon mode. +1 for AI war. Only complaints ive seen about the game is that its too hard to understand (your an eve player, htfu), and the sprite graphics. I play supcom in perma-sprite mode, so no problem there.

X1994 Gallente	Posted - 2010.05.29 00:08:00 - [20] I was going to suggest Nexus or X¦, but you already played those. What about Darwinia? Anno 1404? Dawn of War 2?
Aevlar Crusaders of Darkness Interstellar Forces	Posted - 2010.05.29 11:46:00 - [21] Originally by: M'ktakh ME1&2: check Deus Ex: hell, yeah!

Anno 1404 Venice the expansion of Anno is out, otherwise settlers 7 maybe? Or Red Dead Redemption? And if you're really in to baldur's gate style rpg give Dragon Age a shot and don't forget the expansion to it :)
Lt Forge Pilots From Honour Aeternus.	Posted - 2010.05.29 12:38:00 - [22] Originally by: Aevlar Baldur's Gate I'm recommending the Baldur's Gate series definitely. Bioware always has had the tendency to make the second game of a series better than it's prequel. In overall I enjoy BG2 much more than BG1 due to it's better quality and funny dialogs and easter eggs. They also did the same with Mass Effect: Mass Effect plays better and has more fun elements in it.
M'ktakh	Posted - 2010.05.29 14:07:00 - [23] Edited by: M''ktakh on 29/05/2010 14:07:17 You assume I have not played BG 1&2, and of course PS:T (and thus by extension Dragon Age?:) Isnt Red Dead Redemption for consoles only?
Atomos Darksun The Maverick Navy IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.05.29 14:41:00 - [24] 1+ for Sword of the Stars. Neverwinter Nights KOTOR The Witcher Originally by: Amoxin My vent is talking to me in a devil voice... Linkification, Baby.
Chaos Incarnate Faceless Logistics	Posted - 2010.05.29 16:10:00 - [25] yeah, diplomacy for sins is out. I don't really know if it's that exciting, the starbases seemed like a good upgrade from basic sins but diplomacy just adds funny huggy-feely buffships instead of...y'know, cool stuff _____________________ Horrors!

X1994 Gallente	Posted - 2010.05.29 17:01:00 - [26] Originally by: X1994 I was going to suggest Nexus or X¦, but you already played those. What about Darwinia? Anno 1404? Dawn of War 2? Forgot some: Earth 2150 Overlord 1 & 2 (I personally think 1 was better)
Alain Kinsella Minmatar	Posted - 2010.05.30 23:22:00 - [27] Command and Conquer: Renegade (if you can find it!) --> Also, multiplayer servers may still be available, dunno... Morrowind and Oblivion, of course. --> I still have Oblivion on my PC, with about 40 mods enabled (mostly graphics enhancement or fixes). Win7 actually gave it new life too... As for strategy, Starcraft II is supposed to be out pretty soon. ----- I would like to play Bioshock 2 and the Mass Effect games, but the DRM & other 'additional running' software is a bit of a stopper (especially since I'd be getting these from Steam - most of that becomes redundant).
Lance Fighter Amarr	Posted - 2010.05.31 01:10:00 - [28] Originally by: Alain Kinsella I would like to play Bioshock 2 and the Mass Effect games, but the DRM & other 'additional running' software is a bit of a stopper (especially since I'd be getting these from Steam - most of that becomes redundant). [/quote oddly, one of my problems with ME is that it doesnt give me any information. Compared to the spreadsheet-esque amounts of information you can find on the TES wiki, the ME wiki is almost empty. And I never could find a page that adequately explained the 'accuracy' number.

Sturmwolke	Posted - 2010.05.31 03:23:00 - [29] Originally by: Arec Bardwin Edited by: Arec Bardwin on 28/05/2010 18:17:16 Distant Worlds 4x realtime space strategy. No demo, but got excellent reviews. I played it intensively for a week or two. In the end, thumbs down until they fix the game. Quite similar to Galciv/MOO/HoI3, the core idea is good but the implementation was rather sloppy. While it did excite and occupy my time for several days, there's little reason for me to keep playing it long term. Even with the 1.0.4.5 patch, the game feels half-finished. Why? Way too many reasons to list here. Atrocious loading time. Save times can go over 5 mins. Antiquated file path i.e not default to Program Files during install. Unsettling windows like dialog boxes ingame. Bad hard to read font for main UI - the Galactopedia fonts were better. Shallow techs. Too many aliens (over 20), not enough uniqueness. Ad nauseum, I cba to type this all day. One of the biggest game breaker for my case was that _time_ moves the same when you're running solar system battles. It's devastating in large games because hundreds of things can literally scroll past before you can react. Yes, the automation helps a lot but whats the point of playing this game if you're going to automate 75-90% of the stuffs? No thanks. Once you spend hours playing this game, you'll discover than more than half the time you spend fighting the unintuitive UI which suffers from slow updates as your list grows. The only 4x game that stays on my HDD is Sword of the Stars due to the infinite replayability. Checkout the North Star project from the same company (Kerberos). If it pans out as envisioned by them, that ought to be a very interesting future title to keep an eye on.
Ahz	Posted - 2010.05.31 04:13:00 - [30] Portal. Maybe 8 hours total. But all of them good.
