Weekly /r/Games Discussion - Suggestion request free-for-all

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 01:08 PM PST

/r/Games usually removes suggestion requests that are either too general (eg "Which PS3 games are the best?") or too specific/personal (eg "Should I buy Game A or Game B?"), so this thread is the place to post any suggestion requests like those, or any other ones that you think wouldn't normally be worth starting a new post about.

If you want to post requests like this during the rest of the week, please post to other subreddits like /r/gamingsuggestions, /r/ShouldIBuyThisGame, or /r/AskGames instead.

Please also consider sorting the comments in this thread by "new" so that the newest comments are at the top, since those are most likely to still need answers.

/r/Games Daily Discussion - What makes gaming matter to you?

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 09:13 AM PST

Let's have an open discussion about what it means to be a gamer and why games are important to us!

  • What was your first video game that you remember playing? How old were you?

  • Do you play to escape from real life, or do you search for meaning in video games that you won't find elsewhere?

  • How different would your life be without video games? Are there other hobbies you would spend your time with, or friendships and relationships you might not have otherwise?

  • If you had to pick one game that represents your values or you as a person, which would it be and why?

  • Overall, why are you a gamer? If you explained to someone why this is important to you, what would you tell them?

Do NOT buy Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 on the PSN sale. The servers are down and you can not play the game.

Posted: 22 Feb 2018 04:10 AM PST

I can't believe they're actually selling this when they fully know the game doesn't work, they took down the servers months ago and you can't even start a private game. You can play a stripped down version if you completely disconnect your console from the internet but fuck that.

This is downright fraud, does anyone know how I can get a refund on PSN? I knew the game was a bit shit but I just wanted to chill in freeskate, the base gameplay can't be that bad right how can you fuck up Tony Hawk....

FlatOut 4: Total (Garbage) Insanity

Posted: 22 Feb 2018 03:59 AM PST

FlatOut 4: Total Insanity... Has anyone played this? If so, what were your thoughts on it? Here are mine...

I have been a long time fan of the FlatOut series, from the first game released on the PC back in the mid-2000's. I have played all the games in the series with the exception of FlatOut 3.

I have fond memories of driving a rusty, beaten up muscle car, slamming into buildings and vehicles with the impact of a freight train and plowing through the races with a smile on my face.

That is until I purchased FlatOut 4.

I purchased FlatOut 4: Total Insanity on Xbox One when it was on sale (thank god) after it received mixed reviews.

I booted it up, remembering the fun I had with the previous titles.

The first few races went decently, however the car I was driving (a Beetle-like car) was "floaty" and felt lightweight, as it was difficult to remain on the course, there wasn't much impact to other vehicles and small bumps in the road would send me careening off course. Regardless of the crappy vehicle, I pushed through and on to the next series of races, "upgrading" to what appeared to a vehicle similar to a Jeep Wrangler. On a side note, why does it sound like the in game Jeep has a diesel engine?

I proceeded on to the next race and soon realized that my previous car wasn't garbage, the physics and controls were. Driving a now faster vehicle, the smallest bump would send my vehicle flipping end over end and careening off track. One example is a track (Called Bruxton River Run) where you are driving through what appears to be a logging camp and are forced to cross train tracks, however when you cross the tracks, it's almost as if your bumper clips the rail, sending either your front end or back end into the air and in a random direction. The same thing happens on a number of other tracks, however the most infuriating is the track "World's End" where you are required to race across a frozen lake. In most games this would be fine, as you generally expect it to be slippery and are conscious of your steering input, however in FlatOut 4 there is a small spot where there is water on the ice. Hitting this water will send you careening off the track, into either a boat or the lake or cause the "railroad" issue previously mentioned where your front or rear end will randomly catch area, causing you to completely lose control.

In order to regain your position after crashing you will have to gain "Nitro" by either hitting opponent (who are now way past you) or causing damage to the environment, such as fences, signs, etc. The issue with this is that everything has some sort of bizarre level of physics behind it, which may or may not send your vehicle out of control, further hindering your progress in the race.

The physics issues combined with the unforgiving "rubber banding" AI caused me to nearly break my controller on multiple occasions, as the races became more luck oriented than skill based.

Don't even get me started on the races that give you power ups. This mode essentially takes all the negatives previously mentioned and multiplies them by 10.

Unfortunately I would rather flick my nuts for an hour than subject myself to this infuriating dumpster fire again.

In the end, I am glad I purchased this game while it was on sale, however I still feel like my money was wasted and pine for the old FlatOut games where the vehicles felt like the heavy muscles cars they were.

Rant over.
