ARGH. What is it with players and domination fights in War Thunder. I always get the team that don't care that domination is won by landing, or who can't land because they will be "exposed" to fire.

Lost my last 3 matches because of it, and lost a wager.

This seems to be common in Warthunder, that and just standing around while allies get torn to shreds by enemy fire, but could have been saved by players actualy assiting ones team mates

I'm trying to find out if I can get my Xbox version of Mass Effect onto my pc through origin. Is this possible?

A couple hours of Verdun, considering that it was on sale for £8. God that game is frustrating, but dayum is it satisfying when I finally manage to storm the enemy trench and rampage along it with a 10 round Lee Enfield rifle shooting unsuspecting Krauts in the back. And then I rage at my team for cowering back in No Man's Land, failing to take advantage of the opening I create when I massacre half the enemy team.

Then a couple hours of Elder Scrolls Online. Got fed up when a series of quests sent me back and forth three times across half the length of the island of Auridon.

Spent half an hour in Life Is Strange finding the last of the collectible photos of Episode 4.

Also been watching some episodes of Hannibal (tv). Gawd damnit, they cancelled the show for a second time.

I somehow feel like that is the most accurate game portrayal of WWI combat ever.

I got the Warsword Conquest mod for Warband, which for anyone who doesn't know is a Warhammer Fantasy mod. I did a playthrough of Lizardmen, but I started to get lag spikes in battle for reasons I'm not sure of. I'm thinking it's all of the Cold Ones I have running about, and the pirates' guns probably don't help.

Besides the lag I have been having a blast, my army taking on several armies at a time and winning, and we haven't lost a single castle once. (It probably helps we are on our own island, but still)

I love Warsword Conquest! The addition of firearms is pretty nice, and it's cool how you don't even need Napoleonic Wars to use them.

I think it might be the Cold Ones causing your lag, but I'm not entirely sure. I remember having to restart my laptop because of lag, and my army having around 8 cold one riders.

Ark: Survival.
Loving it!!

Just got in some games of Insurgency, after an hour or two of Attila: Total War. I love Insurgency, but I just can't get consistent. Some games I can carry a team, others I embarass myself. But its always fun, aside from the odd cheater and spawn camps(that can be avoided, usually).

Roling around on War thunder with my Stug42, its an mixed bag of enjoyment and rage as T 34s seemes to be a contant bane for me.

Playing Terraria on expert off and on. I was doing pretty well, beat the Eater of Worlds and a couple of goblin invasions without too much difficulty. So I thought, "Skeletron's next! He can't be too bad, I'm pretty well equipped."

I was not well equipped.

I may actually have to use... a plan.

Just bought the bioshock trilogy on steam, and currently going through the first one. I'm kind of surprised actually. I was expecting a watered-down (pardon the pun) version of System Shock, but Bioshock seems to have its own charm to it that's keeping me interested. That, and the graphics in Bioshock are better. SO much better.

Bioshock is probably one of my favorite games of all time Glad you are liking it. The whole atmosphere and story is fantastic. Bioshock II was a bit of a letdown for me, but it had it's interesting points.

I had to get a break from them hence Ark

Seems majority of time I get "one shot" by them

Not to me. I was just happy I got the chance to visit Rapture again.

I was cool with Bioshock 2, still had fun running around using crazy pseudo-magic powers and shooting guns and running out of bullets etc.

Being a Big Daddy was fun, charging around with a big feth off drill scaring the gak out of splicers.

Well thats understandebal. It can get a bit frustrating at times and yes, that happens a lot to me too. For some reason they seem to be given guided rounds that constantly hits my ammo storage and thus blowing up my tank.

Did my dailies on GTA online, Might do the airport gang attack on solo a bit later (due to online foolishness) Just going to grab War Thunder, do my daily on that, just bought my ME 410E, now I need to pick up the new bomber, and research the fighters to get to level 5.

Rocket league lots of rocket league

What I liked about Bioshock 2 is that you got to set up trap rooms/kill rooms because you knew they Big Sisters were coming. That was some satisfaction in setting up a perfect room.

Playing Assassins Creed Unity

Battlefield 4, on the Final Stand maps.

Playing some more Verdun, singing in chat about buckets, spades and hand grenades...

Heigh ho.

I'm on holiday this week so I've been playing games that don't require much from my computer.

In other words, even more Marvel Heroes. I managed to fully level Doctor DOOM in a day and a half, now I'm working on Emma Frost.

What I should be doing, probably, is getting my already levelled Scarlet Witch and She Hulk ready for End game content.

Mechwarrior still. Working on mastering some of my mechs

playing Pokémon Blue. Can't believe it's 20 years old

I got Civ 5 along with Besiege, and those have been fun. I got to Ipsilon Stage 14, and have been stuck there for now, because as far as I can tell I need to make a decent sized bomb carrier to wipe out 80% of that castle.

Been playing Dawn of War 2. I never execute guardsmen with commissars, so it certainly was nice to find out I could eliminate
enemies by executing them.

I find it funny how the Commissar Lord is the only commissar who uses a laspistol. Are they not all supposed to use bolt pistols?

Drove a tank through a house in BF4. Someone had placed AT mines in it for some reason. Feth!

Maybe to stop someone bulldozing their home with a tank?
