Played a bit of MGSV on someone else's PC recently. I don't know why, but those tapes are a nice fucking feature to me.

Battlefront Beta. I know, it's lacking features the original two had, but this is a fun game, and isn't that the point of vidya games?

Destiny, mainly because I've got regular fireteam bros.

Kerbal Space Program - planning my first unmanned mission to eve and it's moons.

Europa Universalis IV - trying to get the Big Blue Blob acheivement, I am 95 provinces with 7 years to go, so I reckon one big push will get me over the line.

Rainbow Six Beta - that game is fun!

You'd better believe I'm a bitter Bernie Sanders supporter. The Dems fucked up and fucked up hard. Hopefully they'll learn that neoliberalism and maintaining the status quo isn't the way to win this election or any other one. I doubt they will, though.

Just spent the last three hours playing a Galactic Conquest game in Battlefront II as the Droids on elite mode. Kicked clone ass like usual. :p

Battlefront 2 was awesome. I remember playing on Hoth, but me being the stupid idiot I was and still am was never able to get the power cable around the walkers legs.

The Battlefront Beta on the PS4... Its... Lacking IMO. And I don't just mean all the unavailable features. I guess I'll need to play it more to see if my opinion of it changes.

I really like it. And this is coming from a guy who had and loved BF2. Yeah, it doesn't have space battles and the air combat is so terrible, but it's fun, and it feels like Star Wars. Seeing those AT-ATs walking slowly towards you as well as lasers flying around is so... awesome,

What do you find boring, though?

I don't like the gameplay at all. Shooting things doesn't "feel" right, and the whole powerup thing sucks.

Huskar offers his opinions on the game in the Star Wars thread.

Yeah, Huskar hit it spot on. I only disagree with the AT-AT. The mode in the game, walker assault, requires the walkers to reach their destinations. If you could control them, then you could bet there would be some trolls who just walk around ignoring the objective.

I kind of like the power up thing. Sure, it's kind of weird, but it's better than throwing vehicles everywhere. But, I do have criticisms.

1. NO FREAKING SPACE BATTLES.
2. Flying feels weird. It just doesn't feel like a plane, and instead it's like a flying skateboard.
3. Walker Assault is so unbalanced.
4. A quick-chat option would be great, and with it the rebels could actually stand a chance, if some idiot didn't waste an orbital strike.
5. Maybe this is because of nostalgia, but some stuff feels... off. Like, for example, the mini game. Yes, mini game. When you're in a snow speeder and you fire the grapple, it goes into a weird "Keep plane level!" thing. Why is this here? Why not put an actual challenge into doing this?
