Week of Sep 17 - Sep 23
Hey everyone! Hope last week has been great for you.
Here’s what I’ve been up to this week:
- Age of Empires 2: We played this week as well. Because the group I play with ranges in proficiency, we usually play against bots as a team. Last game we played 6v2 against Hard Original AIs. We beat them, but I was mildly concerned when the bots started building barracks and castles close to my base.
- Zombie Army Trilogy: Played first level of first campaign on Marksman. Got all the bottles. Need people to play with to complete the game on Expert.
- Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide: Played a level or two on Normal. This was my first time playing the game, and I’m not very good at melee based FPS games, so I got carried a lot. It was fun though. Trueshot bow is really good at killing special rats.
- 100% Orange Juice: Played with some people at The QUIPS. Played as Marc and Kyousuke. I was too sexy for my shirt.
- Bedlam: Started playing Bedlam. It’s not a masterpiece but I’ve been enjoying it so far. Jumping between different types of FPS is an interesting idea to say the least. I’m at 20/24 after 3 hours of playing and will probably 100% it soon enough.
Here’s last week’s boosted co-op objectives. Unfortunately we didn’t get to complete much this week.
| Date | Game | Objective | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sep 17 | Sanctum 2 | DLC Extras - Complete a DLC level not yet beaten by Monukai | Failed: Monukai didn’t have the time to play it that day. |
| Sep 18 | Post Apocalyptic Mayhem | Savage! Racer - Complete a race (3 laps or more) | Completed: Done 8 races with a group of 5. It was fun, though getting stalled by a one lap behind bot and falling to second or third place was frustrating at times. |
| Sep 19 | AI War: Fleet Command | Fleet General Monu - Finish a campaign (win or lose) | Failed: Arcen games have a tendency to be way too complicated for me to follow without proper training, and AFAIK AI War takes quite some time, so I did not attempt it. |
| Sep 20 | Bombing Bastards | Almost Bomberman - Play for an hour (rounded up) | Failed: We decided to play something else. |
| Sep 21 | Frozen Synapse | Mail-In Objective - Finish a game | Failed: I haven’t properly played Frozen Synapse before, and I know this type of turn based games take long, so I skipped it. |
| Sep 22 | Bombing Bastards | Almost Bomberman - Play for an hour (rounded up) | Failed: Because boosted objectives are selected at random, this came up a second time this week. Like before, we decided to play something else. |
| Sep 23 | Hearthstone | For The Alliance! - Play five games of Hearthstone | Failed: Wasn’t interested. |
I would be all over Vermintide if my PC didn’t chug like crazy even on the lowest settings. Thank Sigmar for free weekend.
hmm.. i will probably start zombie army soon.. if u see me online pop me a invite and maybe we can get an expert game going.
sure. we’ll need four people for expert though. I’ve already completed NZA 1 and 2 on expert, so those shouldn’t be too much of a hassle.
AI War is indeed more complex, but I’d say still manageable ;-)
Got through a coop round without playing before too, difficulty lvl 4 is good to start. (we upped it to 6 during the round, needs save editing to do that though ^^ )
