ThunderPeel2001 Posted August 2, 2011 My favourite: Wait. Why is this in the Trenched thread? Also: http://twitter.com/#!/grumpygamer/status/94212083687768064 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kolzig Posted August 5, 2011 Ron's game should have it's own thread by now. Somebody should just give it a funny name first. I hope at least that one ends up on PC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gwardinen Posted August 5, 2011 To briefly bring this back around to Trenched, I believe it's STILL not available in Europe, which sucks for Double Fine. I say this because I was probably going to buy it when it came out, but now my interest has waned, and my available cash has been depleted by things like Summer of Arcade titles and upcoming retail games such as Deus Ex. I can't imagine I'm the only person in this boat, so I bet they lose a significant amount of the money they would have had had this come out at a time in which there wasn't much else going on and it had internet hype.

elmuerte Posted August 5, 2011 Maybe they should simply rename it to "Grabened" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noyb Posted August 16, 2011 It's now called Iron Brigade, which oddly enough makes it sound more like a generic European war-themed board game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kolzig Posted August 7, 2012 Oh yesyesyesyes! The Amnesia Fortnight continues on PC platform. I knew this would eventually happen, it just had to. http://www.doublefin...s_coming_to_pc/ http://www.shacknews...to-pc-next-week http://www.theverge....-on-august-13th http://www.joystiq.c...-pcs-next-week/ And it includes the DLC!

Squid Division Posted August 7, 2012 Damn, I'm tempted to rebuy it to go back through it with Thumbs. Regardless, it's a great game and everyone should get it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kolzig Posted August 7, 2012 Now the only question remains, will it have the horrible GFWL if Microsoft has anything to do with the PC port as they funded the development on XBLA? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Irishjohn Posted August 13, 2012 So.... the words "Tower" and "Defence" give me a headache when put together. But I love mechs. Will I like this game? Definitive answers only! Or, failing that, interesting comments on the appeal of the game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juv3nal Posted August 13, 2012 If you play coop, then you can probably find someone else willing to take over the TD duties, but single player, I don't think it's really feasible to entirely avoid it. It's not really traditional TD because you're running around in third person view of your mech the entire time (i.e. not some zoomed out view of the whole battlefield).

Irishjohn Posted August 14, 2012 Hmmm.. cool, sounds good. Maybe the third person thing would make the TD aspect more appealing. Maybe some Thumbs will play online. I haven't been very active in playing with people online, this might be a place to start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juv3nal Posted August 14, 2012 Oh should also mention that unlike traditional TD, you're never standing around just watching your towers kill stuff because you're always running around shooting stuff yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sno Posted August 14, 2012 The problem i had with Trenched/Iron Brigade is that the loot progression is kind of harmful to the game. It's such a sharp, linear progression that you quickly will find no fun or value in replaying older levels. It's a game that kind of locks you out of enjoying it more than once, you're forced into grinding like two or three levels of end-game content to continue to wring value from it. It's a good one-shot five hour game, so play it with friends, you'll have a blast. You may also come to realize why analogue saluting is the greatest gaming innovation of 2011.

juv3nal Posted August 14, 2012 It should be noted that the steam version comes with what was DLC on the XBLA version. One of the reasons I'm double-dipping. The other being that I'm not an XBL-Gold member so I was only able to mess around with coop on a random free weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juv3nal Posted August 14, 2012 I am gfwljuv3nal on gfwl if anyone wants to play together. playing with randoms can be an exercise in frustration as I'm often getting booted with a "game state authentication failure". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gwardinen Posted August 14, 2012 Ugh, does it require GFWL for multiplayer? That system has been holding me back from playing coop DoW2 (with the exception of Retribution, which ditched GFWL and works perfectly) for a while now, with its myriad connection issues, unclear error messages and nonexistent technical support. I don't know if I really want to drop money on a game for coop if I'm not sure it'll even work for me and my friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juv3nal Posted August 14, 2012 yeah unfortunately it does. seems to work ok for me though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
