Guild Wars 2

[sbakoola]

Have ended up playing L4D2, and on my own LA Noire.

Love mindless zombie killing and tactics with my best friends with L4D2 - we all love the camaraderie, mandatory group covering tactics and the cathartic release of mindless killing of the undead (insert RL team leads of your choice).

Something bad I found with the Left For Dead franchise is that the first person viewing angle is very narrow so when you spin around it makes me puke.

so I need HJ to give me some advice

Never talk about rep on here

HJ and EO write us a review sometime, how's it going?.

Well I have now played for a total of 3 hours, therefore in good old CUK tradition I can call myself an expert, the things I have discovered are:

I brought the CD as I like to have them rather than download

There is no monthly fee

Character gen was cute, your choice of personality will affect how NPCs react to you

I played the elf / dryad / treeant race as a guardian (healer in heavy armour & a big stick)

So far I have worked out how to move, found the bank hit many things did a few events, made a box (container variant), joined a guild (you can join many which is nice)

It has a mechanism that will restrict your effective level to match the area you are in (stops high level farming|)

You can access mail & teleporters from any where

The more you use a weapon the more special attacks you learn with it

In crafting you can play about & discover recipes if you want to

You can gather anything, no gather skill is required

The bank has separate slots for crafting stuff, freeing up storage

Doing events will get you karma which you can spend on gimmicks

There is an overflow area that looks just like the server if you server has a queue so no time lost there

Oh & it won’t work with Team Speak 2, but that gave me a reason to finally update to TS3 & that works fine.

It looks very pretty

So over all, has potential & will stick with it a while longer at least BGG is gushing & very happy & as it keeps him quiet it’s all good

BGG is gushing & very happy

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to chef again

I shall pass your on to him

Something bad I found with the Left For Dead franchise is that the first person viewing angle is very narrow so when you spin around it makes me puke.

You want to try it 1 foot from a 30" screen!

HJ you there yet?

[EternalOptimist]

Did an hour before work, hit level 6.

Spent a long time trying to get to a vista view, before realising it was a jump-a-thon.

then I lazed on top of the plinth for five minutes taking in the view

[Halo Jones]

HJ you there yet?

Ask again in 6 months, I like to take my time

[Durbs]

Has it got zombies? If so, I'm in!

If you like Zombies the The Walking Dead game is great. Just downloading episode 3 now as its finally out. Its kind of an old school point and click/make decisions game but the art style is lovely and the story is pretty good too.

Was on sale cheap on Steam yesterday for the season pass, dunno if it is now.

[EternalOptimist]

level 13 now.
I started crafting this morning, to see what all the fuss was about. finished exploring the city

Its very good, I got lost in Divinity's Reach in exactly the same way I got lost in Barcelona last year, and found my way out in exactly the same way. uncanny
