Laugh and Game IT'S FRIDAY

[Martok]

So far this weekend, I've played mostly Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes and a little Pandora.  Good times. 

lol, cheers bob, as long as you clear out the spiders

Yeah, put 'em in abox and sent 'em to Martok...

...well, apart from that REALLY big bugger at the back.

Note to self:  Apply flame-thrower to all packages from UK.  >:D 

a really nice vodka

no such thing

I find it helps me to wage war incompetently as Russia in Pride of Nations.

^Just like the real Russia!

I was just hoping they were some of the lucky bastards.

I am.  8)

CK II and a glass of bourbon tonight. Wife's away so just me and the dog in my man cave.
Good times.  8)

This is kind of what my vision of heaven looks like.   O0

Stupid Scotch fest. 

On the plus side, I did find a really nice vodka

Classic!

Well, so far this weekend I've slept in a series of comas (briefly interrupted by dinner with the family including nieces for multiple-birthday purposes), thanks to picking up a head-cold sometime on Thursday. garshgh.  :P

On the uphill climb or the downhill slope or whichever metaphor I think. Just in time for work tomorrow!

Well I ended up wrapping up the weekend playing Star Trek Online.  I have no idea what I'm doing 90% of the time but space battling Birds of Prey is pretty sweet.

you went to Scotch Fest and found vodka.....
oddly this is similar to one of the plot twists of Mirths diary that Ive been reading.

I would've highly recommended staying with it. The story is superb I thought.

But I like a good story in my games

  I always get caught up in mods and editors and almost never with stories and campaigns.  I'd forgotten what fun the Far Cries were.  I've learned to drop from hang gliders onto the top level of the radio platforms (the trick is not to hit the zip lines) -- but the most recent radio tower was a matter of some leaps.  Very satisfying.  And the mercenaries on the South Island are a nasty crowd.  Shooting them is so satisfying.  Especially when one of them says "I want a sitrep" and then you blow up everything in sight.  The vehicle crashes and explosions really hit the spot too.

  I may try the Paradise mod or something before moving on to Far Cry 4 eventually.

  But what really happened?  Less Far Cry 3 and more DCS (getting back to the MIG21) and even some CKII and boardgames and of course WitPAE PBEM.

Can't recommend GOG's edition at this point cos it has problems  :'( Steam's edition should be fine.

What's wrong with GOG's version of Omerta?  Were the developers not updating that one like the Steam version?

I wondered why GOG was giving it away free for a day.  Maybe that explains it.

They did but someone screwed up. I have no idea who but don't think it's Haemimont (based on my information)...most likely Kalypso. It seems like they damaged some files (some maps) while creating GOG's edition and the result is that at some points you can't go further (i could because i have received the original file/map by someone i know). Anyway, at this point, GOG's edition can't be played completely. They told me that they were working on it but haven't seen anything yet. We must no forget that the game has been granted "2" superb copy protection systems  ::): steam AND Kalypso launcher....i guess that removing both for GOG has proven more difficult than what they thought...

Thanks for the advice on this game...  I ended up buying the GOG version and have been enjoying the daylights out of it.  Hopefully it gets fixed but I've spent 14.99 for the whole package.  I can tell you games I've spent upwards of 60 to 70 dollars for and only played minutes.

:) :) I did have a bug maybe on one map where it wouldn't let me do anything with the characters, I saved and when I started back up got full control back.  It's been a real good ride. :)

You're welcome. If you have a problem at some point, you can pm me. I should be able to send you an undamaged map thus allowing you to complete the campaign.

Cheers
