Man, that's not what I want to hear. I've been waiting for empire tw for a while, I'll probably still buy it though...

 

 

Maybe not a total crap...but after the previous games from the serie one would expect something better. To many bugs, imbalance, and AI thats soooo dumb (like engage enemy unit with 2 of yours, then start withdrawing the one that's under fire. Next thing you see is AI geting after the unit that's withdrawing, marching next to your second unit and geting decimated by it ).

 

One of the funny things in Empire are "orbital strikes" (sadly so lame and abused in pvp). Just buy 5-8 mortar units and open fire. It really looks as if some Stardestroyer from the orbit was tearing apart poor AI's units.

Any one got any good figiting games to suggest?

Rome Total war was crap in my opinion.

 

Medieval Total War/Viking Invasion however was awesome

 

You are my hero...

 

I shelved my copy of Medieval II after a couple of weeks. It sucks compared to the first w/ Viking Invasion... shame I lost my discs. :\

 

As for what I am playing right now,

 

EU2

Vicky

HoI2: Armageddon

Sim City 4

Want to get back in Civ 4 but it's boring compared to Civ 3...

 

I need to get a job to upgrade my comp and get new games XD

 

I have a 360 and PS3, but I don't really play much on them except for a recent bout of playing KotOR again. Brothers usually play on them.

Sim City 4

 

It's been a while since I played any of the Sim City games, and I've never played 4. I've been looking at buying the SimCity boxed set lately though.

 

How good a game is SC4?

SC4 is okay, so long as you also have the Rush Hour addon and a lot of mods to make it more realistic/playable. It's near impossible to balance a budget in the game without some mods. Mods also add some other nifty things.

TF2 (Kraknar)

Sims 3

 

 

I play a bunch of games on Xbox live, just send me a request if you want to kill me in somthing

I play Garry's Mod and TF2, I also play Starport GE. My steam account is EchoAlpha.

I play Evony and brutes

I am starting a Steam group. It can be found at http://steamcommunity.com/groups/IRONCN Join away!

Is evony any good? I might start playing later on in the year, after my final exams are dead and gone

I always see ads with semi-naked girls on it...so much advertising!

I am mainly a computer gamer myself, I do have TF, tend to rather suck at it though, never was a very good twitch gamer, my reaction speed is not warp velocity any more something about being over 40 I think.

 

I do like Civilization IV, Oblivion, Fallout 3, Mass Effect, Sins of a Solar Empire, World Of Warcraft, Champions Online, Galactic Civ II, I am planning on Getting Dragon Age when it comes out... love role playing and strategy games.

 

That about covers it.

Shameless starcraft ripoff.

oooo i like the looks of it, i'll check it out after I'm done with work .

Do exactly what they tell you on the tutorial, don't stray a bit and they'll hook you up with a (temporary) free plus account and some coins you can hang onto for bonuses.

Choose your own path, I went warmonger myself, but there are several paths you can take.

Raiding planets, occupied or not is pretty much the name of the game.

If you're not raiding, you're stunting your expansion and growth. It rewards aggression.

Once you have an embassy, lemme know and I'll get you into Molon Labe if you want.

I really wanted to play Portal so I bought the Orange Box. It came with TF2 which I tried out, but it had way too steep of a learning curve for me, so I left it alone.

 

Then I pulled it back out a month ago or so for some reason and I've been playing a couple times a week now. Good times once you get the hang of it.

tf2's sweet, I used to be really good at it, now not so sure I've missed about 3 updates to characters and haven't been able to really play in months

 

Did get on to try out the new bow and arrow for a few minutes though.

Just joined http://steamcommunity.com/groups/IRONCN.

 

Awesome idea EchoAlpha.

 

I haven't had much luck with the Sniper yet. Though, for a while I'd only play Heavy and Scout and I have finally been branching out a lot from that. Someday I'll be able to play any of them.

lol too late i've already done a couple of upgrades here and there :/

 

However for the most part (90%) I've stuck to the tutor

I don't know that they ding you or not, I'm just passing on what I was told.

I built 6 fighters instead of the one I was directed to, and the guy chewed me out, but I still got the bonus.
