I must admit I am not really a fan of hologames. I already spend much time hooked up to my capsule so when I am outside I prefer to experiance the world directly. The closets to holo gaming I'm doing is the Singularity simulation that I often use to improve my combat skills.

I often unwind by playing simulations of atmospheric flight. The feedback is so unlike space; it's an entirely more visceral kind of experience.

It helps me feel more connected to those planetside, and, in a strange way, to nature. To act like a flying creature...perhaps it sounds a bit silly. But my mentor taught me that balance of perspective is important.

We will admit we are not so savvy as to own a Super Wyrkomi Gaming System, or anything of the sort.. though we may have read somewhere that the cartridges have seating difficulty or some similar technical issue.. gosh. We feel sorry for anyone who has Legend of Zyndrine: 3D Mining Action and are unable to get it working. We have peered into the local Arcade/Mass Hall and seen the Amarr kids with the fancy head plates playing C1Z1.. just seems like pod pilots running around naked and beating each other with clubs..

We may have acquired a copy of the Gallente pulp 50 Shades of Anoikis.. a rather scandalous kind of story where a precocious Intaki Bantam pilot falls head over heels for a Drifter with some.. well.. darker sadistic desires. We are not reading it of course.. the local Holder wives have a monthly Botox / book burning party and we thought this would be the perfect item to bring.

When we are not whipping ourself or thumping our headpiece into a wooden tablet with the Words of our Faith, we are on our smartphone playing Fallout Shelter, though we wouldn't be caught doing that autopiloting in our Capsule, if you know what we mean. Blink

I still have an old copy of Planets from like 112 that I fire up sometimes.

It's sort of a procedural sandbox exploration and building game. You start as a survivor of a wormhole collapse in an unknown region with a basic ship with no jump drive, explore the planet and the moons and the whole system, dicover things, upgrade the ship, build a shelter and eventually your own small colony, like that. If you manage to rescue other survivors stranded in escape pods, they can breed and populate the planet, and in a week or two of play there'll be a little random cvilization of your own. Never got to that stage, though.

Sure, I could probably do most of that in real life, but in game it takes hours instead of decades Lol

IGS please

You guys are always stressed out talking your politics and screaming at each other...

Can't we chill the **** out and have a friendly discussion thats not stress inducing for once?

Lets talk about our favorite holo games! Or some of the newly announced holo games coming out next year

You guys see that trailer for "Call of Money: Ancient warfare 61"? i tell you, the Cat A.I in that game looks legit as ****, Also it seems they are gonna do things differently this time as now you can hop over obstacles...I mean..this is the new kinda **** that changes game play right? Im already trying to come up with strats on how to utilize this new feature to the game


Also the pre-order deal is pretty good, if you order it now you can get the "reloading" function DLC free and a gold plated skin for the Khuumak...

What do you guys think?
One of the most refreshing enjoyable threads in quite a while, thank you for starting it!!!! So much in common with so many.

Any of you place Space: Rise of Empires? Its a turn based RTS that lets you build up interstellar nations from wandering bands, developing all their technology as you go, from stone tools to spaceships. I really enjoy how vast the scale is, it really lets me get my micromanagement grove on.

Also confirming pre-orders are a scam.

I play that! Can confirm that starting on iceworlds is not a valid tactic. I always pre-order, though, and I was surprised to see all the hate for it in here. Preordering and DLC allows me to show support for my favourite brands and companies!

Pre-ordering, expansions, and add-on content are wonderful things.

The last game I bought was about a crime-fighter whose entire planet was turned into a prison. Unfortunately, I can't play the game without constant hiccups in the visual feed. I hope they fix that soon.

The concepts behind pre-orders and DLCs isn't too bad, I'm a capsuleer, its not like I can't afford it, but I prefer to wait for the company to have a completed game before I give money to them. Too many half finished products with 20 ISK DLCs for waving.

Any of you like Battleframe? It came out before the DUST programme went public, but its kind of like that. You're this incredibly powerful soldier with power armour and guns and swords and you just get sent on missions to plow through hundreds of mooks, its fun in a mindless sort of way.

I played that, but after a while it got just too grindy. Almost like it was a second job! To think...

I was a sucker for Warhammered series... Warhammered: Dust Marine is the last one that I played before I enlisted in the Navy.

Hologames? Please, nobody plays those...


I mean, I've watched someone play Space: Rise of Empires and I've perhaps sat in for someone playing Catacombs and Leviathans a few times...

The value of regulated leisure time is well-documented. The Caldari Navy has strict guidelines for how much downtime crew must have and that, for the most part, it is more effective if they are allowed to determine their own means of relaxation.

You so played a mage or a derivative of one. I can just see it.

Nothing bad with it though, I was very much a 'punk person. Ever-dreaming of having my very own chainsaw arm. Got the chrome, now all I need is a chainsaw... Foley, I think you've got market for a new product here.
