What am I Installing?

[emprworm]

Right now as I type this, I am installing something.

Can you guess what it is?

A. Zork I

B. Windows 3.1

C. C&C Generals

D. MS DOS 6.22

E. Pong

[VigilVirus]

LMAO. After an hour of thinking ;) I would have to go with choice C.

[Andrew]

I would say windows 3.1 (although 3.0 is better) but since windows is not a game, I would have to say Pong.

[Vanguard3000]

I would guess Zork wouldn't have to be installed, as it's a text adventure. Same goes for Pong, if it's the original.

I'm guessing C&C Generals, since it's brand new, and it's the only thing that would take longer than thirty seconds to install. ;)

[Acriku]

I'd have to choose F) The installation of a point to this thread *rim shot*

Seriously, um probably Pong.

[thomas]

C ?

[rigel6669]

Option F, none of the above ;D

[Scy]

C?!!!letter C same in C&C !

[emprworm]

lol u guys are funny.

seroiusly though i logged on and got my noob butt whoopped!

i'm still trying to figure out if i like this game.

there are some serious weaknesses in it. most notably is unit versatility.

[Caid Ivik]

A. you are installing something very weird, I think Diablo II is better, but as we say "proti gustu..."

B. this is far worse - you are comitting suicide

C. hey! not everyone is able to buy game just when it's released!

D. that's a VERY GOOD idea, altough version 5.0 is better, it never crashes, just won't start anything

E. Pong is a good game, you will enjoy it

are the weaknesses in the units and stratgy or the game engine? Because if its just the superficial stuff like whether its well balanced etc then even if its crap I can still mod it nicely =).

[emprworm]

the game engine seems good. the unit versaility seems lame at first impression. even though you can "group" units, they really don't serve as good a function as in EMFD. This game is mainly Mob A attacks Mob B. Defense isn't as much of an issue here as in EMP. Your base is not protected by terrain, it is vulnerable everywhere. you can have your whole mob on one side of your base and get hit from behind and its over.

Basically, (my first impression): defensive play just doesn't exist in this game.

[Apollyon]

hmmm... so there are no turrets or deployable units?

[Acriku]

I take it that it is Generals then...

[Apollyon]

maybe its Command and Conquer: MS DOS?

[emprworm]

lol you wouldn't have time for deployable units. battles are about 5 times faster in this game. its just a giant mob vs. mob. biggest mob wins. pure and simple. In EBFD units were so diverse and individually controllable that you could literally take an army half the size of your opponent and still pull it out. not in this game. this is more like real war

[Apollyon]

hmmm sounds slightly unappealing. But as long as I can change it (which I can) I will buy it anyway =).

[IxianMace]

its just a giant mob vs. mob. biggest mob wins. pure and simple.

So basically there is no strategy to the game. Just build up a big force and attack. Biggest force wins. ::) Lame...

[Apollyon]

yes but thats changeable.

[DukeLeto]

its just a giant mob vs. mob. biggest mob wins. pure and simple.

No...It's easy to micro a smaller force to victory over a larger one...You just have to know what you're doing. ;)

Just because you suck at it, don't diss it. ::)

[TMA_1]

install really cool games like Darklands and stuff. that is one hell of a game.
