The Huns annoy me, every campaign I've played they basically leave a lot of the map desolate, any idea on how to stop this?

There isn't really. While Attila is alive they just respawn at basically full strength no matter what you do so you have to factor them in to everything you do (unless you're in Asia Minor and Africa, I've never seen them go there). Wiping them out before Attila could be possible but they're very mobile and strong from the start. You basically just have the wait them out and hope they don't send too many stacks your way

He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

Get on Total War Warhammer boys, it's an amazing game. The Chaos rapetrain at the end of the campaign makes Attila look pedestrian. :lol:

Anyone have a urge to watch pokemon with all the poke go craze atm :lol:


The kid and I have been watching it on Netflix. It actually holds up pretty well.


I might try it out, A lot of cartoons that I liked when I was younger I just can't watch now.


I'm re-watching Pokemon on netflix aswell.

Like notor, I agree it holds up pretty well. I never realised how much the show takes the piss out of itself, and have been pleasantly surprised :lol: a couple of episodes back someone made a jab about how Team Rocket always do their poem thing & they replied "we have to fill up 30 minutes somehow" :lol:

i dont mean to insult pokemon go but imo its way too grindy and i do not have the patience, the games i am most excited for are all remakes, bioshock the collection and all arkham games apart from origins, maybe i should be more excited about newer games, i know the new Dues Ex game will be great because they always are, Dishonoured 2 should be good since the first was a lot of fun

I got the Kangaskhan too. It was from my first 5km egg. Couldn't believe it.

Haven't seen anything too rare in the wild. I saw an Alakazam's silhouette in my radar, but that's about it.

I am as hooked as yall.

Currently level 21 (nearly 22). Caught 105, seen 106 (missed a wild Dragonite, don't talk to me about it, still too soon).

My best wild catches are: Lapras, Kangaskhan, Porygon, Venusaur.

My best hatches: Snorlax, Scyther.

I've seen "nearby" a Charizard & Blastoise but couldn't find either, and it still haunts me.

Only on level 9. I was in Bali for 2 weeks without a SIM card, so had to use wifi to play. Was horrendous.

My app froze when I was mid-way through trying to catch a wild Venusaur & i'm still pissy about that, same thing happened with a Rhydon too.
I've hatched a Snorlax & a Kabuto (idk if they're actually rare but I haven't seen them elsewhere), Ive caught a few Scythers and Omanyte, Magnemite & Voltorb I think are meant to be rare too. That said, i've pretty much lost interest in the game - too repetitive & too many friggen zubats so haven't really been playing for the last week or so

Succumbed to they hype and got No Mans Sky...

I was going to wait till second hand copies had flooded the stores but was too curious.

The feeling of absolute freedom to go anywhere is awesome.

I bought into the hype and got bored after an hour so, returned it the same day.

Yeah. After seeing reactions to it I expected alot of people would try re-sell it on.
I really like exploring in open world games, so this seems to suit me for this game. Spent most of my first day just exploring the massive cave system on an earth like planet...

But I do have that feeling that after a while, when similar planets start to keep cropping up that it will get to repetitive.
But for now I really enjoy it.

To be honest. I had not really heard much about it until closer to its release. I think I remember seeing an interview showing it off once.
After having an explore around in it, I can see some problems.

With no real interaction (combat or otherwise) on the planets it is basically just a mining simulator.
If some planets were populated with intelligent life forms that could be peaceful or hostile it would probably go a long way to appealing to players that dont like grinding and survival type mechanics.

It does feel like they created this amazing universe simulator, but couldn't figure out how to make a game out of it.

But despite that, I sort of like the survival grinding aspect. Also some of the worlds are just amazing. But that will probably wear off after all my ships and tools have been upgraded to the maximum.
