Humble Origin Bundle - AKA EA's Marketing team does something amazing - Games

[QUOTE=Irespawnoften;41884024]I think paradise's playlist is really sub par compared to the other games.[/QUOTE] It comes with all the music from the previous games though.

[QUOTE=Ganerumo;41884212]It comes with all the music from the previous games though.[/QUOTE] I didn't know this until the Burnout 3 theme started playing, such nostalgia :v Is there a menu option to edit the playlist settings to choose what tracks it plays?

[QUOTE=NanoSquid;41884038]Anyone got crysis 2 still available?[/QUOTE] I have a origin key available if you still need one, pm me.

[QUOTE=Blueridge;41884317]I didn't know this until the Burnout 3 theme started playing, such nostalgia :v Is there a menu option to edit the playlist settings to choose what tracks it plays?[/QUOTE] I think it's in the audio settings options. It might have been back when they called the soundtrack list "EA Trax" so look out for that :v:

guys, I still have tons of keys. everything but dead space 3, bf3 and Sims 3.

[QUOTE=Ganerumo;41876120]Dead Space 3 has a cool crafting system but the game has an amazingly stupid difficulty curve and starts you off directly with enemies you'd normally fight by the end of the first two games, throwing packs of regenerators at you not even three hours in. At this point in the game you have nowhere near enough firepower to fight them back but the game doesn't seem to give a shit and still throws more shit at you. The camera also always gets in the way and it's really hard to know what the fuck you're doing when three quarters of the screen are showing Isaac's back. Compared to even the second game this is a huge disappointment so far, the game feels rushed and horrible. Being able to craft your own weapons is cool but it also comes at the expense of an intelligent ammo system (universal ammo literally killed the game for me, it's just dumb and makes combat stupidly difficult at times because all of your weapons pumps up the same ammo so there is no such thing as a backup weapon) and also at the expense of proper upgrades. Instead of nodes you find these annoying upgrade circuits that you put in limited upgrade slots, and you need a ton of resources to obtain what's now used to open locked bonus doors. [B]And since the game throws about four of these doors at you within the first three hours of the game without actually giving you the resources needed to craft the components, it's pretty clear the game wants you to pay a shitload of real money to actually create these door openers.[/B] And why the fuck is the point of giving the player craftable weapons like shotguns and revolvers when there is literally no point in using them. The shotgun is pathetically weak even at point blank and the revolver does jack shit. It's cool to be able to do it but it would have been better if these weapons were actually useful - if they had specific ammo types instead of that retarded universal ammo stuff, then using a smaller firearm along with your normal gear would make sense. So yeah, good thing I only paid 5 bucks for that game because I would have been really pissed off otherwise. First game is still a blast though, perfect proof that sometimes simpler things make better games.[/QUOTE] There is a New Game+ mode. I think those doors are there for that. And I don't know, the universal ammo made it so that I never ran out of ammo. I had around 1500 rounds for my assault rifle near halfway of the game. The shogun also was so powerful I used it till the end of the game.

[QUOTE=JoonazL;41884418]the universal ammo made it so that I never ran out of ammo[/QUOTE] That would be considered a critical design flaw in any other horror game...

[QUOTE=Blueridge;41884317]I didn't know this until the Burnout 3 theme started playing, such nostalgia :v Is there a menu option to edit the playlist settings to choose what tracks it plays?[/QUOTE] Yep. It's in audio settings somewhere. You can even set it to shuffle instead of go in order. I had to disable a track because it was causing CTDs.

[QUOTE=Im Crimson;41884548]That would be considered a critical design flaw in any other horror game...[/QUOTE] Good thing Dead Space 3 is an action game!

[QUOTE=EddieLTU;41881382]guys, lets play Burnout Paradise online next week maybe in tuesday, i might make a thread in GIP[/QUOTE] add me on Origin (Lavacano_Ozols) so I can join in, then add me on Steam (see left) so I don't have to use the abortion that is Origin chat.

[QUOTE=Im Crimson;41884548]That would be considered a critical design flaw in any other horror game...[/QUOTE] In the end the enemies start to soak up so much bullets (8 enemies in one group that all take ~100 ar ammo to kill? Seriously?) that I was glad that there was so much ammo. Dead Space 3 isn't really a horror game though.

[QUOTE=Ganerumo;41884212]It comes with all the music from the previous games though.[/QUOTE] I played revenge the most, and it doesn't have any of it's music :(

Are any of the bf3 expansions worth getting?

[QUOTE=Blueridge;41884317]I didn't know this until the Burnout 3 theme started playing, such nostalgia :v Is there a menu option to edit the playlist settings to choose what tracks it plays?[/QUOTE] Yes you can. Personally I turned off all music except guns and roses and the other games' original soundtracks. I also kept the classical music on, and when I'm playing with some of the classier cars I turn the effects volume down almost to zero and only allow for classical music :v: [editline]19th August 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=AnnieOakley;41885243]Are any of the bf3 expansions worth getting?[/QUOTE] If you really want to get the expansions you might as well get all of them at once with premium. Don't plan on getting only one or two expansions out of the bunch though or you will be disappointed.

[/quote] I had no trouble playing the hardest difficulty solo, running a standard assault rifle / shotgun build. I don't know what to tell you.

[QUOTE=Ganerumo;41876120]The camera also always gets in the way and it's really hard to know what the fuck you're doing when three quarters of the screen are showing Isaac's back.[/QUOTE] Change your fov.

[QUOTE=Super Muffin;41885621]Even if you switch to your resource bots once a level and drop them in random places you should have more than enough of whatever materials you need.[/QUOTE] The game gives you about 40 tungsten if you do the first side mission which is enough for two door keys and there are three before you reach another source of tungsten. I generally really don't like the game, feels weaker and more tedious than the previous ones, especially since the game just threw the ball right on and throws you tons of enemies at a time from the get go instead of immersing you whatsoever. Being assaulted by at least 3 enemies all the time is really fucking tedious and the game doesn't have tight enough controls to be a proper third person shooter. Melee is also now completely worthless because it doesn't stun or push the enemies back and the base plasma cutter is such a piece of weak shit (even the new sound for it is terrible) that I don't even understand why they didn't give you the same version as the previous games, which you have to craft for a rather minor stats bonus.

[QUOTE=Ganerumo;41881676]There are like two mods that add levels. One of them I never managed to make work, the other is pretty cool and replaces the prologue with a mission set before the main story centered around how Faith got the wound Merc mentioned in the tutorial. There's also a mod that replaces Faith with a male cop but it crashes when you steal a gun from someone.[/QUOTE] I saw those, but I'm confused as to how they figure out the level editor but then do absolutely nothing with it. :| Hopefully Mirror's Edge 2 will get some love.

So any news if the new games are going to be added?

Hey, does anybody have Mirror's Edge?

[QUOTE=Toyokunari;41884767]I got some keys[/QUOTE] Thanks Toyo

Anyone have an extra Burnout Paradise key?

[QUOTE=Ganerumo;41884212]It comes with all the music from the previous games though.[/QUOTE] You got my hopes up because I tought you meant the soundtrack of the Burnout 3 was in there. I wanted to play Road Rage while listening to "This Fire" again... [editline]Is Dead Space 3 Co-op good?[/editline] Or get taken down while listening to "Lazy Generation"

Can't register on Medal of Honor Multiplayer. Key already used.

[QUOTE=mark6789;41885864]So any news if the new games are going to be added?[/QUOTE] [B]If[/B] they are added they will probably be added sometime on wednesday, humble bundles usually add more games when half of the time remains

[QUOTE=mark6789;41885864]So any news if the new games are going to be added?[/QUOTE] They'll probably add some more games tomorrow. Apparently in the Steam database some Ea games were modified or something so they could be added: Bulletstorm, Medal of Honor: Airborne, Dead Space 2 and Red Alert 3 -Uprising. We can't be 100% sure if those will be the bonus but still it's the only hint. Also, since it's an Origin bundle there may be any other games for Origin as those I mentioned are for Steam.

But Airborne has been the last decent WW2 Shooter in a long time (not including Red Orchestra 2)
