I mean a game where you are looking out of the cockpit of a fighter plane and can fly upside down, do loops, move any way you want and have to shoot down other airplanes. There are a ton of good games like this for PC, but I've never really run into a good one for consoles. I've been looking for something like that for a long time - a good combat flight simulator, especially from either the WWI or WWII eras. I play on an Xbox One, and have been playing The Elder Scrolls Online exclusively for the last 3 or 4 years. I added the Morrowind expansion from a year or so ago, and on Tuesday the new Summerset expansion drops. It's too hot around here in the summer to do much of anything else, anyway.

Did you ever play TES III Morrowind, TES IV Oblivion, or TES V Skyrim? found them much more enjoyable than TES online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Online was a first for me - my introduction to MMORPGs. Until then I played mostly Halo (but got sick of constantly being torn to shreds by kids), and al of my RPG gaming was restricted solely to table top RPGs - hard core nerd stuff. I've heard nothing but good about them though, and will likely give them a try at some point. If and when I do, I'll let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takes me way too far back. Had BG/BG2 EE on steam for 10 bucks total. I couldn't pass it up. Holy crap the beginning of BG is tough lol I'm so used to 3.0/3.5 rules that the 2.0 rules are alien. Took me a few hours to get a character to level 2. SWEET VICTORY. Edited June 6, 2018 by joesixpack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another XBox 1 user!! Join the Call of Duty group where we post our user names so we can join in on games together....I've only played with Nervous Guy once or twice and keep trying to figure out how to create a group. Call of Duty WW2 is a great game though IMO (no planes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just remember "lower is better" and wing it. Doing an ironman playthrough right now. Only reloading on MC death. If you drop, you drop. Makes it kinda hilarious, leaving statues of petrified people everywhere. Edited June 6, 2018 by BringBackOrton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just switched from console to PC about 4 months ago and I’m really digging the use of a mouse and keyboard instead of a controller for shooters. Been playing a lot of PUBG lately, but awaiting the new Battlefield in October. Hit me up on Steam or Origin, Raj1nCaj1n is the name. I never could play any shooter on a console. I compare it to driving an RC car to really driving a car. Going through a 3rd party controller is just too awkward. Had lots of fun playing Unreal Tournament, Team Fortress, Left For Dead and various iterations of Battlefield and Rainbow 6. Never could warm up to Call Of Duty. Thought it was to progression upgrade based. Edited June 9, 2018 by Dante Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I hit level cap before I even got to Baldur's Gate. NOW WHAT? I should specify that i only keep henchmen in the party till they die. Then I loot them and continue on solo.

Golden Goat Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 I got hooked on Warhammer Online (ORVR/PVP) in 2009. They shut it down in 2013, but a private server opened in 2014, and the devs have made it better than the original. I have a wife and daughter now, so I don't get to play much anymore -- but it's still a great stress reliever, and I sneak on for some PVP action whenever I get a chance. https://www.returnofreckoning.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 What about "war gaming"? Anyone do that? I'm not even sure what that means. I guess it is like a Dungeons and Dragons type role playing game involving books and dice instead of a computer? Is there one game that is considered the best?

War gaming is almost as old as war itself, though it’s probably better described as strategy gaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
