god I had an amiger as a kid, I bought one recently so it's the only game I've played on it civ 1 one I mean the original. is really cool. I am ofc sucker for all the civ games and the offshoot colonization but that was too easy
3 was pretty good
in 2 you had this ww2 scenario I remember so I played norway there ofc it was completely hopless hehe
you had some major cities on the map there in america if you got those you could make it, but without them you were fucked
>in 2 you had this ww2 scenario I remember so I played norway there ofc it was completely hopless hehe
You can't play Norway. The scenario starts in mid-1940 and Norway is occupied by the Axis.
Proof:

Tip: turn off all videos in Graphics Options otherwise the game might crash
Also turn on move units by mouse under Options since key boards now have the number key pad anymore
You can play as "Neutrals" (who are at war with Axis anyway) and they have Stockholm, you might be thinking of that.
French also get steamrolled quite quickly.
there are orchestra or what you call songs from heroes 4/5 lol
civ 3 man before the 3d shit... man I remember me and my brother sititting there playing this.. is like I am not much of a gamer when I sit with my pc I am usually programming.. but me and him sitting and playing this

Before /misc/ I didn't pay attention to this, but now I can't unsee that after you reach the ~~*modern*~~ age, half of your happy and content citizens suddenly become miscegenating blacks (while marginals remain whities).
hehe absolutely awesome and it's kinda cool at harder diiculties and say you ie have austrialia and they rebel.... boom.. australia rebelled tehy call them selves the romans
You can trigger the civil war by capturing the enemy capital if 1. the civilization being attacked has more population 2. there is a vacant player color. Then it splits approximately in half. Insanely useful against runaway AIs.
more realistic than you think
the combat is no a simulation
it's an abstraction for conflict
the game isn't calculating the results of face to face combat
it's simply using a dice roll to predict any sort of aggressive behavior between two units in the same tile
when a barbarian beats a modern armor it means that the barbs somehow outsmarted the tanks with some ambush or trap or terrorist attack
your imagination has to fill the gaps
I bought an amiga 1200 a few months back I so wanted one of those when I was a kid anways the only game I've plaid so far on it is civ 1. I've looked some at programming on it, is very differnt from pc. when I was a kid and had my 500 thing it was pretty much already dead
SC4 is still being actively modded. I played it recently. Only gay thing is the community won't let mod collections be shared for some gay reason. Otherwise a solid game .
I am not even surprised because it's so god damn fucking awesome.. oh you also have this transport tycoon is one guy who made this.. all in assembly...
is one of the dos games I've acutally bought there is alinux version but it doesn't have the songs. man you can buy all sorts of retro games for just pennies
Someone actually remade this game entirely so that it runs on modern systems for multiplayer and stuff, and then released it as open source. Insanely based. Called OpenTTD.
hehe I got it ofc, but music is gone so I bought it to play it in dosbox. absolute awesome game. the guy is sort of a legend I didn't know this untill lately but apparantly he wrote all of this in assembler
I was so bummed about the change in music from the old TT to OpenTT. Absolute travesty, new music just didn't have anywhere near the charm or nostalgia

Nexus modders set the modding community back decades with their attention whoring. Before them you could freely just make mod packs and rip code from dogshit mods and put it to better use. Nowadays it's considered sacrilege if you don't beg someone on your hands and knees for a single line of code from them while also crediting them as a major contributor while also paying them. If you use someone else's mod in a modpack they throw a tantrum and cry because it means they don't get to watch their favs/likes number rise and then you'll get blacklisted from every site for being an evil thief. Minecraft modding where people just shamelessly ripped each other's shit off whenever they had an issue with it while just making fuckmassive modpacks was the peak of modding because little kids don't give two shits about that fragile totem pole bullshit current year modders function off of.
Also they're fragile retards who will throw a tantrum and delete all their shit on a whim and if you republish any of their shit you're automatically the villain.
wtf i though mod communities were all fine and dandy, last time i downloaded some stalker stuff it was all cool and nice there
also elden ring mods were fine and i haven't seen any fag behaviour there, although i had to mod the game files myself since the nexus only provided the tools really, idk where i was going with this part, anyway
kind of strange, i should check mod communities more often, i wonder how ror2 is doing
>fallout
yeah, last time i heard about fallout modding was frontier, jesus christ that was awful, nothing will really change my appreciation of fallout games, atleast 1-3, but how in the fuck did the community about a game set in a post apocalyptic world centered in US, basically stuck in 90's culturally, became like this is beyond me
The simcity 4 community also don't want to release a patched .exe which would allow for bigger cities because "it would break the EULA" as if anybody gives a shit, it's a fucking 20 year old game EA is not going to give the slightest shit but they insist on following it.
did you know the devs built in geoshaping stuff in the game but couldn't use it due to lack of computing power? like they had code in the game that would reflect more light on one side of a hill due to the sun. and that winds would shape mountains and hills and erode at your cities every so slightly? THEN EA DECIDED TO DELETE THE SOURCE CODE
railroad tycoon 2 was the first game I think that ever was in linux i twould take years before well .. wine to get good lol
btw so do you know this? so to make games for steam I have never done it, but I've just gone trhough the proces.. you know how to set everything up and so
so is not like they can't publish games for linux because they are using steam... but they don't want to.. because of the share ammount of support it entails so is why they just compile for windows and realease as such.. because all the problems of each and every linux distrubution... is simply not worth it
God I miss when video games looked this good. It's been 20 years already and these are still the best graphics and art style I've ever seen in a video game.
he I knew unironically stoltenbergs fabvorite game and I'm not joking man you can find articles of him playing this game hehe and he also played wow for a bit, I assume with his kids and stuff
so in his wow shit oh I so wonder because back then we all played on this norwegian pvp server the bastard supposedly used his kgb handle as nick lol
he used to play a bit of games
but seriously none of you played heroes 5? omg so underated I playd it just a couple of years ago
worst of it all I was so busy at school then so I didn't get it... til later. I am so sold to this game
it's these russian guys who made it nival something I forget then ubisoft took over the franchise 6 is pretty good in my opinion but good luck getting it run on windows pc... they are so arrogant there is this bug you, it crashed your video card driver does this illegal dx call that was okay in early drivers but not today
even though peole have pointed out hey... fix this we found your bug..
ubisoft suck man
anyways went on a børkenrant lol. you have to pretty much run in linux and wine where there is a specific fix for this

fell a sleep but dude I was an exchange student in lithuania and there was this tv channel there and in the weekend it was these tournaments I forget wwich games, but it was so awesome I had never seen anything like it before.
it was like how you watch hockey or other wintersports but they were playing computer games
fuck I loved 5 so much and thsoe two expansions hehe.. some people hate six other than it's bugged and you have to run it in linux thsedays I loved it, but not as much as 5
I dont see at as much as a game but more as an experience.
2002-2003 were years when pcs and internet connection became prevalent in eastern europe, couple that with the community maps that came right at the time when international user-created content blew up (Morrowind, Warcraft 3, homm3-4, cs etc were all dependant on users)
and you'll get the purest expression of will humanity would ever see in the next 20 years, untainted by irony, having nothing to compare itself to, never becoming obscure or misleading. Sure, on the surface and scirmish gameplay it's inferior to its predcessor, but i have some maps that i occasionally replay that thanks to text-oriented homm4 gameplay style are worth more than gold, for they open the portal to a better time, better people and better thoughts, not old enough to be completely unrelateable and always looking to bring joy to you. To see this with an untrained eye personal experience and alcohol must be involved.
homm3 is fucking awesome though and yes I know this maps and shit I never ever played any of those games online but I know it exists but 4 bleh you just take your hero and summon shit absolutely mayor flaw in this game
adding I am no expert lol 3 and 5 are super cool. your hero is supposed to stand on the side
I love Age of Empires (all three parts), and the picture is Age of Empires II. I also love Age of Mythology. But if you want a strategic game in the medieval spirit, you won't find anything better to play than Stronghold and Stronghold Crusader.
Heroes of Might and Magic III and V are great, and as for IV, yes, the gameplay is a bit bad, although the campaigns and soundtrack are great. Gelu should not have taken Armageddon Blade against Kilgore. Never trust an elf!
>How one stupid cunt can ruin an entire game
Women were a mistake or alternatively why would you let a ponyfucker with no previous writing experience put in charge of story setting and characters of your newly acquired, rebooted IP? Why do you buy the IP, if you repeatedly claim how much you hate the science fantasy setting just to replace it with generic repetitive slop?
In other news. HoMM5 and lo
na, very much done with f2p games my lad. Maybe Path of Exile every once in a while, I would try that game more if I could get into it with someone maybe. That game gave me pretty good Never Winter Nights 2 vibes. Best free2play games I ever played were TF2 and Tribes: ascend (RIP, inshallah)
omg.. as I said man I don't even know what I look at any more. if it was jsut a decade + ago I could tell you this and that shader is used and ooh see there
okay this one wasn't the worst graphic wise I mean. there are other games where I am so lost
but holy shit it seems awesome though you really get emerged in it. some of these games man I don't know what I am seeing anymore shaderwise and so I mean
holy crap it's just so god damn fucking realisitic though
man if they made these breaks so you sit there on the cycle and you get push fowards as you break... .. not breaks but like a simulator that would be awesome

I've been having a blast playing DOS games this year. Using RetroArch with DOSBOX Pure and it has save states and general midi and mt-32. I've been pretty impressed.
dosbox works pretty good is only some of my old shit that I haven't been able to run.. I can't remember specifically anymore what we did all sorts of illegal ninja tricks then most of my demos work just fine
fucking doxbox is so awesome so in my projects folder I got old > old >old there is my dos shit from when I was a teenager and almost all of it runs
takes you back man.. to the glory of the days of software rendering d3d was already a thing then... but nvm....
what an awesome time that was then it aws just d3d and everything looked the same and they got shaders at least... then... today it's just unity and shit.. you don't even need to know how a computer works....
I’ve got a ton of DOS games on my XP laptop and play them a lot. Empire, Battles of Destiny, XCom, Civ1, Wizardry1-5, Master of Orion, Warlords 1 and 2, Populous… All the old Bethesda ones like Arena and Daggerfall. Really good old hex and counter classics like High Command and the Atomic Games WW2 games.
I have more fun playing all of that stuff than I do most of the new ones.
>Populous
is this even on pc? I didn't know that
a lot of shit won't work on xp you need to further back win95 or 98
is certain instruction you can't run and so I can't remember anymore but ie cpuid and so simple shit like that won't run other instructions too. dos was ring 0 you know. no restrictions
Yeah, they were on PC. I use DOSBox on XP. That rig is pretty much only for playing older games.

GUS was pretty good. Everybody here had SB16 / AWE32
One rich kid I knew had the Roland SC-55.
Some games sounded amazing through that
you know my my first """virus""" it was in dos I can't even understand how the fuck I was able to find this out but in dos you have no multithreading and shit.. but what you do got is what was called tsr.. you can put a small program in memory and have it it called by hooking this interupt
if you are not a programmer which 99% of all pol people are lol you can start this program and you can make it spawn at intervals you define hehe
so at jr high I installed this at all the computers at the compute rlab it was super annoying all it was whatever you did after 5 minutes it would just draw a picture of my fren doing weird faces and it would go back...
is hard to explain but it was really annying andways it was not a real virus you had to start it so I simply put it in the autoexec bat on all the computers
when this guy turned 30 they wanted me to get this but this sourcecode was lost.. most importantly in this case that god damn image
When I was 14 or 15 I wrote a batch script that wrote another batch script into the windows startup folder containing only a single line:
>shutdown -s -t 0
and then I sent it to the memekid nextgenhacker101 via youtube PM. Back then Youtube channels showed last logon dates, and after I sent him that "program" to "test out" and "tell me what he thinks", his last logon times grew, and grew, and grew. It was into multiple months since last active before I stopped checking/forgot about it.
This was back in the XP days, Vista was still new, so there was no protection from this. Not even a virus scanner would pick it up, since it's just a simple batch file with a seemingly innocuous command. Of course I dressed up the folder I sent him with other nonsense files and folders like Bin, Src, some random DLLs, and empty txt files named shit like LOG.txt.

Just use hotkeys. I was offput by it at first, but the only substantial difference between SMAC and Civ games is basically that you can do so much more in SMAC, that if you aren't acquainted with usage of hotkeys, it may get awkward.
Plus. there is a PRACX fan patch that allows to view potential tile yields and other quality of life improvements.

Are there not a lot of body modification options for the MC? Perhaps I'm misremembering.
I just wish we'd be given more choices to affect the arcology and the lives of the citizens, as well as be given more content regarding conquering regions or entire countries if we please, and affecting the lives of those outside of the arcologies.
More management gameplay is what I'm vouching for.

Rules of Engagement and Breach by Mindcraft were fucking awesome. ROE was a mission-based space combat game with a Star Trek based UI. Breach was a turn-based ground combat game. The devs linked them so you could do space combat in ROE then if you had Breach you could do boarding actions on the enemy starships and space stations or take outposts on enemy planets. Both came with the ability to create your own missions.
Another Mindcraft gem was Star Legions, where you commanded a fleet on missions to conquer planets varying from primitive Stone Age to high tech spacefarers. If the planetary tech was high enough the cities had weapons capable of hitting your capital ships and shooting down your drop ships. You had to beam down your assault troops to take out defenses and shields and capture spaceports, then send in the drop ships loaded with heavy troops to reduce enemy forces and capture cities. Orbital mechanics were done realistically so you had to account for the time it took for dropships to land and return to orbit to pick up more troops. You could have up to 8 invasion zones with battles going on at once.
Lots of fine detail made it interesting, but you could also hand off a fair bit to the AI allowing you to focus on the big picture.

so a stall was when you read memory and then you tried to access it straight after... I can't remember anymore is such a long time ago.. certain things you could do that the cpu just went meeh I am fucking off for a bit

Those are the best games I ever played and I have no idea how many hours I spent playing them.
>total war Rome
Play as Julius, leave Europe alone and move straight to Asia
Based. I always preferred playing as the Seleucid Empire instead though. By turn 10 Armenia, Egypt, Pontus, and Parthia are all knocking at your door but if you can stall them out with several heroic siege defenses the Seleucids have the riches of the east and a great unit roster with which to crush Rome late game.
RGB has passed. My sources just informed me that she's being turned into soap right now. Trump will give a press conference tomorrow announcing her death and handing out the bars of soap, saying “Now Ruth can help stop the spread of COVID. Please think of her while washing your hands, or your butt if you're using this in the shower. Also, check out this lampshade I just got.”
god I just needed ot listen to something nice
Sissinnguit
this shit.. all I ehar is baldur
the swedis girls use this same flower shit in the summer
is this superscioun shit here surrounding it I can't quite remember how it goes but you a grill can put that under her pillow mid summer and she will see who she is going to marry
also at this time is when cows start to speak for just a moment
I don't really remember much of the game, but I do remember that I really enjoyed it at the time! I think, what I hated most, was how awful playing it on a PC was. I think, if I remember correctly, that installation might've been awful.
No, Sierra games always had this stupid fucking walker mechanic that made no god damned sense. Everything had to be delivered to houses by walkers picking stupid shit like water and "repair services" up at a station and bringing them to each household. But the problem was their pathing was so fucking randon that entire sections of your city could collapse if one walker misfired and it would wreck your entire fucking city unless you just built these bizarre race track blocks. Sierra games are marathon runner simulators, not city builders.
He needs to be more careful posing in the water like that, he knows he can't swim.

Anno 1800
>colonize third world terrotiries
>ship resources back to your homeland for profit to develop your industrial empire
so you basically became a israelite.
>Anno 1800
Is made by Ubishite, I bet it's pozzed AF
Looks good.
For me, it's Caesar IV
Don't forget the super wakandan scientist DLC
I fucking deleted the game after that shit, glad I didn't pay for it.
Is this tropico 6 but for autists?
There's a bunch of anno games. 1602 is my favorite.
>tropico 6 for autists
That would be Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic.
Tropico on the iPad is pretty good!
age of empires?
nothing can beat
well ofc except original civilization
i only played civ 2 and 3. tried to get into 5 when it came out on game pass and its kinda meh
god I had an amiger as a kid, I bought one recently so it's the only game I've played on it civ 1 one I mean the original. is really cool. I am ofc sucker for all the civ games and the offshoot colonization but that was too easy
3 was pretty good
in 2 you had this ww2 scenario I remember so I played norway there ofc it was completely hopless hehe
you had some major cities on the map there in america if you got those you could make it, but without them you were fucked
hehe man I love those civ games
i think it was 3 that I used to try and leap frog over everyone else and then rape them with modern armor against mounted cavalry across the map.
prolly I sort of remember this once you get modern armor or proper horses lol you can just ghengis khan the entire map
btw so there is civ 6 sometimes I watch these guy playing online but it's very different from when you just play regularly
I was never into onlying playing in any civ game it was just me and my brother and cousin
>in 2 you had this ww2 scenario I remember so I played norway there ofc it was completely hopless hehe
You can't play Norway. The scenario starts in mid-1940 and Norway is occupied by the Axis.
Proof:
https://playclassic.games/games/turn-based-strategy-dos-games-online/play-sid-meiers-civilization-ii-online/
Tip: turn off all videos in Graphics Options otherwise the game might crash
Also turn on move units by mouse under Options since key boards now have the number key pad anymore
damn I was so sure it was norway... I can't remember... I guess so makes sense lol
but it's pretty damn hard in the start there germany just over run you they will take oslo the first fucking turns hehe
hehe anyways I remember it was pretty scenario
You can play as "Neutrals" (who are at war with Axis anyway) and they have Stockholm, you might be thinking of that.
French also get steamrolled quite quickly.
What browser does one need to play these? My israelitegle chrome won't load them even after disabling the ad blocker and trackers
it seems to work on brave
Checked. I was so fucking pissed when Microsoft deleted the WinG DLL in one of their XP updates and Civ2 stopped working.
there are orchestra or what you call songs from heroes 4/5 lol
civ 3 man before the 3d shit... man I remember me and my brother sititting there playing this.. is like I am not much of a gamer when I sit with my pc I am usually programming.. but me and him sitting and playing this
Civ 6 is on game pass, Civ 5 never made it to Xbox. Civ 5 is the shit
>original civilization
Before /misc/ I didn't pay attention to this, but now I can't unsee that after you reach the ~~*modern*~~ age, half of your happy and content citizens suddenly become miscegenating blacks (while marginals remain whities).
hehe absolutely awesome and it's kinda cool at harder diiculties and say you ie have austrialia and they rebel.... boom.. australia rebelled tehy call them selves the romans
is just something about civ 1 man
You can trigger the civil war by capturing the enemy capital if 1. the civilization being attacked has more population 2. there is a vacant player color. Then it splits approximately in half. Insanely useful against runaway AIs.
one thing that sucks in civ 1. you can have a tank or whatever.. there comes a barbarian militia... boom... you lost
you sit there and go... no.... NOOOOO wtf
hehe
more realistic than you think
the combat is no a simulation
it's an abstraction for conflict
the game isn't calculating the results of face to face combat
it's simply using a dice roll to predict any sort of aggressive behavior between two units in the same tile
when a barbarian beats a modern armor it means that the barbs somehow outsmarted the tanks with some ambush or trap or terrorist attack
your imagination has to fill the gaps
also hehe that's how it goes when you get this rebellion
it's just something so awesome with the original game. the music and shit sucks it was obviously made for pc first
>original civilization
I still play that. It’s always fun starting a nuclear war then dealing with global warming instead of nuclear winter.
hehehe
I bought an amiga 1200 a few months back I so wanted one of those when I was a kid anways the only game I've plaid so far on it is civ 1. I've looked some at programming on it, is very differnt from pc. when I was a kid and had my 500 thing it was pretty much already dead
sim city for was the only good city builder, fuck that other trains or what it's called where you have to buy 6 million worth of dlcs
I wish it had steam achievements so I could make my parents proud of me.
SC4 is still being actively modded. I played it recently. Only gay thing is the community won't let mod collections be shared for some gay reason. Otherwise a solid game .
I am not even surprised because it's so god damn fucking awesome.. oh you also have this transport tycoon is one guy who made this.. all in assembly...
is one of the dos games I've acutally bought there is alinux version but it doesn't have the songs. man you can buy all sorts of retro games for just pennies
I loved that game. I had a trainer for it which made it much more fun.
Someone actually remade this game entirely so that it runs on modern systems for multiplayer and stuff, and then released it as open source. Insanely based. Called OpenTTD.
hehe I got it ofc, but music is gone so I bought it to play it in dosbox. absolute awesome game. the guy is sort of a legend I didn't know this untill lately but apparantly he wrote all of this in assembler
I was so bummed about the change in music from the old TT to OpenTT. Absolute travesty, new music just didn't have anywhere near the charm or nostalgia
fug we are in the game thread.. yeah me too man the music half the shit
is not the same without it them comes your news paper new train!
Huh... You can use the original TTD data in OpenTTD, including the music.
There's even a real instrument recording of the tracks, I bet it could be fitted into the game in some way too.
yeah ofc you can just put the music there but it's not included by default because of copy right shit god damnit now I am listening to greenlandic music
okay this one cracks me up
and no.. I don't understand a single word
anyways I ended up buying it the openTDD version is simply not the same
btw I didn't know but is one guy who made it and he did it all in fucking assembly
Nexus modders set the modding community back decades with their attention whoring. Before them you could freely just make mod packs and rip code from dogshit mods and put it to better use. Nowadays it's considered sacrilege if you don't beg someone on your hands and knees for a single line of code from them while also crediting them as a major contributor while also paying them. If you use someone else's mod in a modpack they throw a tantrum and cry because it means they don't get to watch their favs/likes number rise and then you'll get blacklisted from every site for being an evil thief. Minecraft modding where people just shamelessly ripped each other's shit off whenever they had an issue with it while just making fuckmassive modpacks was the peak of modding because little kids don't give two shits about that fragile totem pole bullshit current year modders function off of.
Also they're fragile retards who will throw a tantrum and delete all their shit on a whim and if you republish any of their shit you're automatically the villain.
wtf i though mod communities were all fine and dandy, last time i downloaded some stalker stuff it was all cool and nice there
also elden ring mods were fine and i haven't seen any fag behaviour there, although i had to mod the game files myself since the nexus only provided the tools really, idk where i was going with this part, anyway
kind of strange, i should check mod communities more often, i wonder how ror2 is doing
It's mostly Bethesda modding that is like this. Skyrim mods not so much, but Fallout series modders are absolute cancer, holy shit.
>fallout
yeah, last time i heard about fallout modding was frontier, jesus christ that was awful, nothing will really change my appreciation of fallout games, atleast 1-3, but how in the fuck did the community about a game set in a post apocalyptic world centered in US, basically stuck in 90's culturally, became like this is beyond me
Have you seen Starsector modders?
The simcity 4 community also don't want to release a patched .exe which would allow for bigger cities because "it would break the EULA" as if anybody gives a shit, it's a fucking 20 year old game EA is not going to give the slightest shit but they insist on following it.
did you know the devs built in geoshaping stuff in the game but couldn't use it due to lack of computing power? like they had code in the game that would reflect more light on one side of a hill due to the sun. and that winds would shape mountains and hills and erode at your cities every so slightly? THEN EA DECIDED TO DELETE THE SOURCE CODE
no, man you are one of those really decidated sim city 4 fans?
heh so my father he loved this game too he only does or did these types of games hehe.
for me, it's sim city 3000 unlimited
that's the one with these future alien buildins and so it was nice and all but you know not real simcity
is like also you had civilization call to power or what it was called full of alien stuff, you just got fusion tanks or what it was called
railroad tycoon 2 was the first game I think that ever was in linux i twould take years before well .. wine to get good lol
btw so do you know this? so to make games for steam I have never done it, but I've just gone trhough the proces.. you know how to set everything up and so
so is not like they can't publish games for linux because they are using steam... but they don't want to.. because of the share ammount of support it entails so is why they just compile for windows and realease as such.. because all the problems of each and every linux distrubution... is simply not worth it
God I miss when video games looked this good. It's been 20 years already and these are still the best graphics and art style I've ever seen in a video game.
Rollercoaster Tycoon, SimCity4, Jagged Alliance 2, all speak to my soul
The game industry was still white at the time
I just don't like the new sprites and animation.
It feels uncanny because you miss being 8 years old when life was ahead of you and you hadn't been raped by God/Satan yet.
what game is this btw?
AOE2
Unless you’re asking for the game of the pic you posted, I have no idea
he I knew unironically stoltenbergs fabvorite game and I'm not joking man you can find articles of him playing this game hehe and he also played wow for a bit, I assume with his kids and stuff
so in his wow shit oh I so wonder because back then we all played on this norwegian pvp server the bastard supposedly used his kgb handle as nick lol
he used to play a bit of games
but seriously none of you played heroes 5? omg so underated I playd it just a couple of years ago
heroes 5 is an excellent game, still play it from time to time
worst of it all I was so busy at school then so I didn't get it... til later. I am so sold to this game
it's these russian guys who made it nival something I forget then ubisoft took over the franchise 6 is pretty good in my opinion but good luck getting it run on windows pc... they are so arrogant there is this bug you, it crashed your video card driver does this illegal dx call that was okay in early drivers but not today
even though peole have pointed out hey... fix this we found your bug..
ubisoft suck man
anyways went on a børkenrant lol. you have to pretty much run in linux and wine where there is a specific fix for this
My friend showed me a long time ago HOMM5. Since then I've played it a bit with my brother to crush him and that's it.
the story is pretty cool
Funny, a Norwegian is the best aoe2 player too
my god.. stoltenberg? hehe man I tried to find some articles but this so old.. you have to pay the bastards to get access
Of course not Stoltenberg, just some guy who plays it professionally
just for a fucking computer game.. comone on!
?t=110
is awesome
hmm I wouldn't rule him out hehe
nah just kidding so man you are into this pro gaming stuff? man first time I saw this shit I was a student in your flag.. excahnge student.. you were sending these korean shit is first I ever saw pro gaming I was astonished heh
anways I have a vietnamese fren he is in one of those top teams there sponsored by sony and all that shit, they just send everything
I don't got contact with him these days
you must have seen these shows from korea is like a ski jumping contest to them or well soccer match it's most amazing shit I've seen
are you feeling alright?
fell a sleep but dude I was an exchange student in lithuania and there was this tv channel there and in the weekend it was these tournaments I forget wwich games, but it was so awesome I had never seen anything like it before.
it was like how you watch hockey or other wintersports but they were playing computer games
you went... now what the hell is this?
really?
tfw NATO top dog is a "former" KGB cunt
clown world is truly a bottomless pit
you mean stoltenberg hehe? he is in their archives used to be a meme here
Heroes of Might and Magic V?
the expansions barbians from the east? is pretty cool too
Dragon age maybe?
heroes 3 I mean coolest game ever currently playing it... but I play like once a week for like 2-4 hours so it will take me forever
heroes 4 suck.. 5 is really good, 6 ok .. 7 garbage
damnit now I got heroes songs stuck in my head
if i had you in a vicinity of 4 liters of beer id convince you that homm4 is kino by morning
>homm4
no.. it sucks man it's just one hero going areoun soling everything is garbage the only thing good about hoom4 is the songs
5 though you lit got orchestar playing this lol
fuck I loved 5 so much and thsoe two expansions hehe.. some people hate six other than it's bugged and you have to run it in linux thsedays I loved it, but not as much as 5
have you seen the newest one 7? it sucks ass
I dont see at as much as a game but more as an experience.
2002-2003 were years when pcs and internet connection became prevalent in eastern europe, couple that with the community maps that came right at the time when international user-created content blew up (Morrowind, Warcraft 3, homm3-4, cs etc were all dependant on users)
and you'll get the purest expression of will humanity would ever see in the next 20 years, untainted by irony, having nothing to compare itself to, never becoming obscure or misleading. Sure, on the surface and scirmish gameplay it's inferior to its predcessor, but i have some maps that i occasionally replay that thanks to text-oriented homm4 gameplay style are worth more than gold, for they open the portal to a better time, better people and better thoughts, not old enough to be completely unrelateable and always looking to bring joy to you. To see this with an untrained eye personal experience and alcohol must be involved.
homm3 is fucking awesome though and yes I know this maps and shit I never ever played any of those games online but I know it exists but 4 bleh you just take your hero and summon shit absolutely mayor flaw in this game
adding I am no expert lol 3 and 5 are super cool. your hero is supposed to stand on the side
I've tried 4 so many times.. just no..
in 6 you have these cheesy story my favorite is that necromancer girl there you got bosses and so too, that's pretty cool
I love Age of Empires (all three parts), and the picture is Age of Empires II. I also love Age of Mythology. But if you want a strategic game in the medieval spirit, you won't find anything better to play than Stronghold and Stronghold Crusader.
Heroes of Might and Magic III and V are great, and as for IV, yes, the gameplay is a bit bad, although the campaigns and soundtrack are great. Gelu should not have taken Armageddon Blade against Kilgore. Never trust an elf!
Age of Wonders 1 isn't bad, also. It's kinda the same thing.
>How one stupid cunt can ruin an entire game
Women were a mistake or alternatively why would you let a ponyfucker with no previous writing experience put in charge of story setting and characters of your newly acquired, rebooted IP? Why do you buy the IP, if you repeatedly claim how much you hate the science fantasy setting just to replace it with generic repetitive slop?
In other news. HoMM5 and lo
I thought you were being serious for a moment and were going on about her uncle lol.. dude you have to play this game is awesome
I already played corridor walking sim, no thank you
I have not checked but you can bet your ass if you go and seasrch on judentuben and go heroes of might and magic 5 all cut scenes
so arent you guys playing this tanks of war shit and so? since you are on sg.. sorry pol I mean
na, very much done with f2p games my lad. Maybe Path of Exile every once in a while, I would try that game more if I could get into it with someone maybe. That game gave me pretty good Never Winter Nights 2 vibes. Best free2play games I ever played were TF2 and Tribes: ascend (RIP, inshallah)
the shitty area of city is where you see majority of ethnic food shops.
all whites in storyline

collin mcrae was the last car game I played
again not much of a gamer
>collin mcrae was the last car game I played
Richard Burns Rally is still king
never tried it anon I am not a gamer used to work in this industriy these days I don't even know what the hell I am seeing anymore
Take a look at this:
holy fucking crap!!!
omg.. as I said man I don't even know what I look at any more. if it was jsut a decade + ago I could tell you this and that shader is used and ooh see there
I can't anymore....
okay this one wasn't the worst graphic wise I mean. there are other games where I am so lost
but holy shit it seems awesome though you really get emerged in it. some of these games man I don't know what I am seeing anymore shaderwise and so I mean
holy crap it's just so god damn fucking realisitic though
man if they made these breaks so you sit there on the cycle and you get push fowards as you break... .. not breaks but like a simulator that would be awesome
burp what an awesome game
>holy crap it's just so god damn fucking realisitic though
It really is. First time I saw it I was thinking it was filmed in real life and then uploaded to youtube as a game video for fun
oh man you can feel it damn awesome
god I want a bike now.... I haven't driven one for ages
Meh, if I get a bike I will probably die. I'll stick to cars and boats.
I don't give a shit if I dox my self beside our family so big have you ever heard of roy snellingen before? or his father. you know motorcross is like really surpressed hee in norway but still we have managed to produced absolute undisputed world campions roy and his father is one of those they are my relatives
regardless though that's motorcross not street shit. I used to drive trail my self but I was never any good at it
yeah some of those rally games were great
I just learned the wow thing here on pol so a long after the fact... I wonder though... when you stand there in tristfal glades waiting for the zepplin back in 2006... and some rogue comes.. GANK GANK.....
was that stoltenberg?
hehehe
Age of Empires 4 is better
I decided to replay all the Elder Scrolls games in order. Just started pic related.
I've been having a blast playing DOS games this year. Using RetroArch with DOSBOX Pure and it has save states and general midi and mt-32. I've been pretty impressed.
eXoDOS is a great library.
dosbox works pretty good is only some of my old shit that I haven't been able to run.. I can't remember specifically anymore what we did all sorts of illegal ninja tricks then most of my demos work just fine
fucking doxbox is so awesome so in my projects folder I got old > old >old there is my dos shit from when I was a teenager and almost all of it runs
takes you back man.. to the glory of the days of software rendering d3d was already a thing then... but nvm....
what an awesome time that was then it aws just d3d and everything looked the same and they got shaders at least... then... today it's just unity and shit.. you don't even need to know how a computer works....
I’ve got a ton of DOS games on my XP laptop and play them a lot. Empire, Battles of Destiny, XCom, Civ1, Wizardry1-5, Master of Orion, Warlords 1 and 2, Populous… All the old Bethesda ones like Arena and Daggerfall. Really good old hex and counter classics like High Command and the Atomic Games WW2 games.
I have more fun playing all of that stuff than I do most of the new ones.
>Populous
is this even on pc? I didn't know that
a lot of shit won't work on xp you need to further back win95 or 98
is certain instruction you can't run and so I can't remember anymore but ie cpuid and so simple shit like that won't run other instructions too. dos was ring 0 you know. no restrictions
anways you got dosbox these days
Yeah, they were on PC. I use DOSBox on XP. That rig is pretty much only for playing older games.
I don't got a dedicated righ my self.. but my got at my parents place in their basement I have this computer and I have this gravis ultrasound in it.. I hope.. so this is sound card it was made by this canadian company that went undert at some point... but regardless it produced amazing sound is very sought after today it got really popular in the demoscene here it has 32 channels 1 meg of memory
man again.. how we were able to figure shit out back then we didn't have inteernet like today or at school we had.. anways information was not this readily avaliable so it was just pure hacking to make it work.. god I remember when I was able to make it play I used this worms sound.. then it said
>hello!
in fucked frequency
god what a cool time man. you just had to try try try.. what happens if I send this command to it what happens then?
>how we were able to figure shit out back then we didn't have inteernet like today
Dr. Dobb’s, C/C++ User’s Journal. I had a stack of subscriptions like that. And there was a lot on the BBSs. It wasn’t as easy to find, but you could usually find what you needed.
Then you got to SVGA and you had to write drivers for every single fucking card because who gives a shit about VESA?
I still miss Borland C++…
>Then you got to SVGA and you had to write drivers for every single fucking card because who gives a shit about VESA?
omg this... when vbe 2.0 came around then it was nice pie before this man no
fug I used that too borland I mean so I try to find it these days so we were at these "faires" if you will us pc guys and the amiger ones I can't fucking find it anon, these amiger guys used something similar to that borland editor they all did it but I am not able to find it
simpler times
in my work experience I am so frustrated with some of the younger people that comes .. they go... what's a ram? shit like that man is how it istoday you don't actually need to understand how a computer works
Checked. Try eBay. They’ve got copies of the old developer studio for under $20.
you know the best shit ever when I was a teenager then and working as coder professionally .. we got numega boundschecker after this memleak that was the best shit ever.. I spent weeks man to find this lea boom like that it showed it
I am in the linux world now and bsd but man the only thing I fucking miss is visual studio
I’m seriously considering getting some old parts and building a Win95 box just to write DOS games for lulz. I’ve still got Borland Studio 4 and 5 in a box somewhere.
hey man are you drunk?
lol nigga nobody uses or needs sound cards anymore
GUS was pretty good. Everybody here had SB16 / AWE32
One rich kid I knew had the Roland SC-55.
Some games sounded amazing through that
you know my my first """virus""" it was in dos I can't even understand how the fuck I was able to find this out but in dos you have no multithreading and shit.. but what you do got is what was called tsr.. you can put a small program in memory and have it it called by hooking this interupt
if you are not a programmer which 99% of all pol people are lol you can start this program and you can make it spawn at intervals you define hehe
so at jr high I installed this at all the computers at the compute rlab it was super annoying all it was whatever you did after 5 minutes it would just draw a picture of my fren doing weird faces and it would go back...
is hard to explain but it was really annying andways it was not a real virus you had to start it so I simply put it in the autoexec bat on all the computers
when this guy turned 30 they wanted me to get this but this sourcecode was lost.. most importantly in this case that god damn image
When I was 14 or 15 I wrote a batch script that wrote another batch script into the windows startup folder containing only a single line:
>shutdown -s -t 0
and then I sent it to the memekid nextgenhacker101 via youtube PM. Back then Youtube channels showed last logon dates, and after I sent him that "program" to "test out" and "tell me what he thinks", his last logon times grew, and grew, and grew. It was into multiple months since last active before I stopped checking/forgot about it.
This was back in the XP days, Vista was still new, so there was no protection from this. Not even a virus scanner would pick it up, since it's just a simple batch file with a seemingly innocuous command. Of course I dressed up the folder I sent him with other nonsense files and folders like Bin, Src, some random DLLs, and empty txt files named shit like LOG.txt.
kek ye old tric
okay it doesn't work anymore but it used to
if you created a .com file and you just simply but a c in it. it would boot people's computers
I don't know the reason but it werked
I was playing MoO2 earlier today
For Daggerfall use the Unity port. It pure kino + mods
Digits. Thanks, I’ll be sure to try it out.
I did not even notice my trips. Enjoy it, honestly pursuing the main quest is kinda lame. The game is at its best when you are just dicking around the world doing quests and stringing a narrative in your head.
My only recommend mod is Vanilla Enhanced for graphics. Keep this vid on hand when you start sorting out mods:
I've been playing that and all of the screenshots I've been taking in-game just disappear, nowhere to be found on my computer.
everything will find it if it's on the system. it updates in real time as files are created also.

kek btw real mister burns, they guy he as actually made after, this ruthless norwegian vulture capitalist was just on thsi stream lately.. god damnit he is 100 years old I think

man these guys I unironically almost moved to england to work on this game
seemed like really nice guys.. but instead I went back to school and took my degree instead.. fug I should have gone....
Damn, you fucked up. I suspect it would have been a great time and a good entry in the resume.
you know.. but at the same time this industry sucks man is not something you want to do forever, trust me
you are like early 20ies and so and back then teenager you burn for this shit... is not going to last lol.. you want stability and better pay
first job offer I got we were at this demoscene shit. well I was 17 and drunk in denmark so these swedes came and offered me a job they just watched what were programming
but .. I was a minor then so my parents when I got home said no.. then when I got 18 I didn't move to sweden.. look man I don't give shit but I can't be specific hehe
what a time this was I quit highschool well last seester at least I had to go back later before univeristy and take those classes that I flunked because of absentia but is fine
what a time that was you just sat there programming and these talent scount went around finding you...
it was my father man.. he went.. anon stop this.. go take your degree instead
you can't just work for scraps nonstop.. he's a boomer but he was right.. as if the regular software industry is any beter.. pfff.....
they were doing some viking addon at this time or expansion or whatever
>oh you are from norway!! omg pls come we need you here rn
fug.. then I went to school and ever since I haven't worked in gamdev.. god damnit I should have gone there instead
AoE II is great
AoE 4 is better

Enemy Territory was so much fun. The noise it made when you killed someone with a mortar was so satisfying.
Wunderbar!
I was there for the test version

Gangland
I love this game. I main Teutonic knights and just scream DEUS VULT while blasting Palästinalied at max volume.
god damn i loved age of empires 2. kept me entertained as a kid when we would get our internet cut off because we were poor niggas.
>when we would get our internet cut off

Bannerlord
Feasts when?
Manhunters when?
Claimants when?
Never, because those filthy turkroaches have already moved on to making some shitty roaches in space sci-fi game, and just expect modders to add the shit that they dont
Bannerlord falls apart after a few generations and then not your clan had babies and your sons can’t marry or make babies
They need better diplomacy too and no matter how many lords you have and man power you only have 2-4 armies at once.
I have over 26k man power and everyone else is down to 1200-1500 and I can’t finish them off
* no one but you clan has babies
Also at one point all my nobles voted for one clan to get all the new lands so I have to spend my bananas on going against that and can’t start a army
They wanted to give half the map one one clan with 1 living member
Based I was playing Civ 6 the other day and I couldn't believe how trash it was compared to alpha Centauri

Just use hotkeys. I was offput by it at first, but the only substantial difference between SMAC and Civ games is basically that you can do so much more in SMAC, that if you aren't acquainted with usage of hotkeys, it may get awkward.
Plus. there is a PRACX fan patch that allows to view potential tile yields and other quality of life improvements.
>Richard Baxton piloted his Recon Rover into a fungal vortex and held off four waves of mind worms, saving an entire colony. We immediately purchased his identity manifests and repackaged him into the Recon Rover Rick character with a multi-tiered media campaign: televids, touchbooks, holos, psi-tours--the works. People need heroes. They don't need to know how he died clawing his eyes out, screaming for mercy. The real story would just hurt sales, and dampen the spirits of our customers.

how to get to heaven explained in 11 minutes:
New games are shit these days, which is why everyone just want remasters of old classics. AoE 2: DE is an amazing game.
the big studios just copy older games is so tiresome. back in the days they would do risk and make new shit, today they just like to cope anciet titles
oh another game I haevn't played this one yet but my god I loved it as a kid. xcom: enemy unkown. fug they even remade this.. is one of those games I've bought on steam but haven't played
>C&C Generals Zero Hour
Prophetic videogame. A Westwood gem, as all their games were.
Also, there's only 1 nagger, he is from the Muttistan faction, and he is the AT/AA guy.
Do download the ROTR mod. Absolute kino. I love the russian units.
>FreeCities
Revive the Roman Empire while managing a whorehouse.
Do download the Pregmod, it adds a lot more flavor to the game.

It's a western harem Visual Novel. Has quite a few choices that affect the story. I didn't play it to completion, but it appears you can make some based choices.
I wish FreeCities had more body modifcation for the MC and more non-sexual body modification. And male non-sex slaves. I want to make a cool cyborg bodyguard.
Are there not a lot of body modification options for the MC? Perhaps I'm misremembering.
I just wish we'd be given more choices to affect the arcology and the lives of the citizens, as well as be given more content regarding conquering regions or entire countries if we please, and affecting the lives of those outside of the arcologies.
More management gameplay is what I'm vouching for.
Generals and zero hour are some of the best rts of the early 2000s
I have been wanting to make a game like that is stable diffusion good enough for assets yet? What game engine should one use?

Cities Skylines with about 2000 mods
>with about 2000 mods
kek I am not even going to... just because of the principal of it....
I have a bout 20gb of just Road pieces and assets. Every time I start a map and make this intricate highway system never get around to allowing people to live there. Might have to upgrade 128 gigs of memory
my father is this massive sim city fan... he goes
>so anon this city skylines...
NO NO NO NO!!!!! it's a swindle they are just milking you for money don't even...
... but look at the trains....
hahaha does anyone of you have such a father btw? that's obsessed with trains? omg I love that bastard
In Bannerlord if you leave your sons in a city and don’t take them with you they grow up in a dress and their kids don’t look like them
They still marry women tho but have a dress on
It's not as old as the rest but by God was it great
so the games industry here in norway has been dead for a long time, did you ever play this game joint strike fighter?
that's made by innerlooop I know those guys almost started to work with them at some point
is never enden enerving music
Look up the book "monsters in the dark" - any x-com fan would love it - it's a making of the game book
last game innerloop made was this project I'm going in, it was around that time I considered
is this hard as fuck first person shooter in this fictional world where russian gangsters hae taken over this x country. so these guys also made shit for teh sega dreamcast the consol that flopped so hard so my mate he as they gave up(norway is so fucked when it comes to running shit they couldn't take anymore).. anyways he got one of these devkits of theirs
Rules of Engagement and Breach by Mindcraft were fucking awesome. ROE was a mission-based space combat game with a Star Trek based UI. Breach was a turn-based ground combat game. The devs linked them so you could do space combat in ROE then if you had Breach you could do boarding actions on the enemy starships and space stations or take outposts on enemy planets. Both came with the ability to create your own missions.
never heard of it before. sounds cool though what platform was this? pc or ?
also did any of you play this game? I never did but I watch through it just yesterday is comfy as fug hold on...
is sierra this game I totally missed it, but it's so dam comfy to watch now
They had versions for PC, Amiga, and a few other platforms. I only played PC, but I think the graphics were a bit better on the Amiga.
Another Mindcraft gem was Star Legions, where you commanded a fleet on missions to conquer planets varying from primitive Stone Age to high tech spacefarers. If the planetary tech was high enough the cities had weapons capable of hitting your capital ships and shooting down your drop ships. You had to beam down your assault troops to take out defenses and shields and capture spaceports, then send in the drop ships loaded with heavy troops to reduce enemy forces and capture cities. Orbital mechanics were done realistically so you had to account for the time it took for dropships to land and return to orbit to pick up more troops. You could have up to 8 invasion zones with battles going on at once.
Lots of fine detail made it interesting, but you could also hand off a fair bit to the AI allowing you to focus on the big picture.
whatever happened to the sekrit of epstein island bw? or what we called it lol
argentia bro really delivered on that one
how we were able to play throught this... we didn't even know english yet....
of all amiger games.. this one
is this french legend who made this for the time just incredible awesome
you get trapped in this alien world it's hard as fuck
absolutely astonishiung game. he later made flashback
you made me post the flashback theme
this is shit that really got me in to programming shit
that video game was ahead of its time in the day. so fun.
do they have it on an emulator somewhere?
do win uae if you are on windows or fs-uae in *nix works pretty good. fug I love retro crap man is a whole other time sometimes I wish I was 10-15 yeqars older so I could get to experience all this time and program and so I mean
is not like today where you got coders that even doesn't know how the hardware works you know, back then it was all about that and it was so weak so you had be able to really utilize it
Heh. Writing mouse interrupt routines and memory managers, changing the 16 and 256 color palettes, unrolling loops and rewriting them in assembly because otherwise the code was too slow… I’ve still got a bunch of that code from the early 90s on my work computer.
Good times, good times.
man this good tymus!!!
man and you had paring I mean instructions on a pentium and a pentium mmx they could do shit at the same time if you paried it correctly
I can't even remember it anymore and you could get a stall.. you know this apprantly lol
I was so young man lit taken from the school bench to werk... I wish I was older man so I could experience this whole time
There is a remastered type version on steam also it was on super nintendo you can get the rom for that
some of the amiger games had such god damn good music.. . so this game sucked so hard
but the music was good so when I got home from school I put it on while I did my homework
In the GC you can take a dump in the Kremlin in 1941 and succesfully defend the Reichstag.
so a stall was when you read memory and then you tried to access it straight after... I can't remember anymore is such a long time ago.. certain things you could do that the cpu just went meeh I am fucking off for a bit
when I started to work already then assembly was more or less dead though then comes your other generations of pentium and nobody even knows how to anymore...
canada's greatest achievement

Bro you gotta be kidding. Ja2 is the most /k/ game I ever played and one of the most /misc/ games too

Based. I always preferred playing as the Seleucid Empire instead though. By turn 10 Armenia, Egypt, Pontus, and Parthia are all knocking at your door but if you can stall them out with several heroic siege defenses the Seleucids have the riches of the east and a great unit roster with which to crush Rome late game.
RGB has passed. My sources just informed me that she's being turned into soap right now. Trump will give a press conference tomorrow announcing her death and handing out the bars of soap, saying “Now Ruth can help stop the spread of COVID.

Pharaoh
These games had so much potential but the walker mechanic made them unplayable.
I don't really remember much of the game, but I do remember that I really enjoyed it at the time! I think, what I hated most, was how awful playing it on a PC was. I think, if I remember correctly, that installation might've been awful.
No, Sierra games always had this stupid fucking walker mechanic that made no god damned sense. Everything had to be delivered to houses by walkers picking stupid shit like water and "repair services" up at a station and bringing them to each household. But the problem was their pathing was so fucking randon that entire sections of your city could collapse if one walker misfired and it would wreck your entire fucking city unless you just built these bizarre race track blocks. Sierra games are marathon runner simulators, not city builders.
That sounds mildly familiar, now that you mention it.
A new Pharaoh game was just released recently, but it got like no press, I think?
I gotta check it out
It's called Pharaoh: A New Era.
