Which maps did you end up playing? I was pleased to find a working Lutris script that installs an updated HD version of the game but there were only bots online and no custom maps. I was hoping to ride around in a tachikoma like the old days.

>>1512 we mostly played standard maps, a lot of Blood Gulch but other maps too. basically whatever the servers we hopped around to were hosting. also, i think custom maps and community servers are only on Halo: Custom Edition, which as i stated above was a version released by Gearbox (who ported the game to PC) and only works on the original game. i could br wrong tho. one of the people who joined had to do some DLL fuckery in the WINE prefix to get it to work, but it does run on Linux. if we play this game again (i would definitely like to) i hope you'll play with us!

>>1513 I ran into the pidgen.dll problem too so I tried Lutris and it worked perfectly. You have to play custom maps like Hugeass and Coldsnap to get the 2005 experience.

i will be out of town on the 26th so i will not be able to host game night. sorry hikarins! have a good month.

>>1552 No July game night...

>>1467 if i'm not mistaken the server is set to offline mode meaning you can join without an account. clients like polyMC or whatever let you launch in offline mode for free.

>>1468 ultimmc or sth like that is awesome

>>1469 ElyPrismLauncher is great to. You just need to create a account at ely.by for skin, and connect it into the launcher, and done. Its completly free! :3

>>1468 PollyMC is dead, long live FjordLauncher

the server is dead

i ended up refunding it, i had a lil fun but im playing so many games right now i couldn't see myself dedicating to it

>>1532 based on the trailers ive seen the combat reminds me of MOBA games

>>1478 i want to get into map games but my brain is small. i have Stellaris and HOI4 on Steam but haven't put much time into either of them. i'm sure i'd learn them fine if i just played but it seems kinda daunting.

>>1480 HOI4 gets a lot more fun with mods as the base game is kind of small

Bullying the smaller African states as Sokoto is pretty fun

>>1478 i still play victoria 2, does vic 3 get updates? i heard people were looking forward to eu5 more recently >>1480 check crusader kings 3 out hikarin it's the easiest and most fun >>1508 hoi4 has lots of mod drama too, i feel it's a separate community from other paradox games. >>1536 make sure you become the richest nation my hikarin!

>>1526 at this point, perfectly if you run it with no mods, and even with i maybe get a crash once every few hours which is no bother since auto save works perfectly and it takes a second to boot

>>1527 >autosave NOOOOOO!!! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO ONLY SAVE AT LANTERNS, THE BASE GAME HAS NO AUTOSAVE! YOU'RE NOT A REAL GAYMER!!!

>>1528 the amount of braincells and desksmashes this feature has saved me i think its worth the compromise lole

>>1531 Fair enough. Sucks that it will always be a PS4 exclusive but whatever, I'm sure the emulation will get good enough to the point it almost never crashes.

>>1534 it's almost there honestly, even with all the modpacks and shit i have tried, it's more of a rare occurrence now

what the heck is an omni crafter

>>1500 Someone who is self sufficient with all crafters and gatherers unlocked and leveled to max

>>1506 i never did any of that gay shit i just killed things

I haven't even finished the trial of playing in 2 years. I want an MMO world to escape to but nothing clicks. XIV feels very artificial.

>>1511 since 2021 the game hasn't felt great honestly, from what ive heard from friends who still play the fights are still pretty good but i noticed everything was just becoming so simplified and catered to retards, everything felt so boring and there was no competition left. plus modding has taken over the game 100%

RTSies, also diabloids. Tried baldurs some years ago but never even figured out how to move around
