PSNOT 3.0 - Let's Talk About University of Kentucky, Baby!

Shit, I've been off the trophy train for too long. Eric has almost caught up with me on TT. Therm is about 26k ahead. It wasn't too long ago that I was in spitting distance of him.

All that matters is that I'm still ahead of Cleaner.

 
I think I'm done with the Gamestop thread. Even when I'm helpful, people are still too stupid to understand simple things. I'll just stay in the PSNOT Discord.

Mmitch has quit playing all his damn adventure games and slowed down quite a bit. He was averaging over 10 trophies a day in his last streak. I've been right behind him for quite a while. Might finally pass him up. :D/

 
Did anybody buy the $8 PS+ price version of Drive club? Is it the full game our just the one time free edition?

The upgrade feature in the game seems to be broken.

The game is pretty good except for the drift challenges. Hate those.

I loved the drift challenges in Sonic Transformed. Asphalt: Injection had some fun drift as well. Not liking it much so far in Rivals, which is a bit disappointing. How does drift in Driveclub compare to Rivals'?

Further in Rivals now and it's not bad. Playing as cop. Think I'm at rank 16 now. At the beginning the need to do a 2-3 minute challenge and then return to headquarters was a chore, but once you get further in the speedlist takes quite a bit longer so it's not near as obtrusive.

The game doesn't do a good job of letting you know which cars are the best as far as I can tell. It's just a long line of cars with varying stats and I can't tell how they're organized but it's definitely not least stat points to most stat points. Different cars have different pursuit techs they can equip and levels at which those techs can be upgraded to, so it seems like you just kind of find a car with nice stats, switch to it, then check to see what techs it has and how much you can level them up. Maybe I'm missing something--anybody that's played it want to chime in on that?

 
Is the IDKFA trophy in DOOM the only glitched one? I have 7 weapons left to master, but I'm still ready to make a backup save when close to the end.

they're ordered by the rank you unlock them. it's still better cars the further you go down the list. i don't remember exactly what or how many cars were in each tier, but it's tiered by the amount of pursuit tech you can put on the car. you have a little freedom at each tier on if you're looking for a car with speed, handling, and such.

What Else Ya Got is also buggy, but only in a visual sense. It will report that you haven't completed a challenge even if you had. If you go into the map it'll show correctly, though. So IDKFA is the only one you should have issues with. Nice thing about the weapon challenges is that a lot of them are very deliberate so you can make a backup 1 kill or whatever short of when you should be triggering the trophy.

Yeah, left to right seemed to be a gradual stat increase with sharp drops mixed in here and there. Are the tiers indicated on the screen somehow? I didn't notice anything like that.

nope, you just have to see how much pursuit tech it can hold. i can't remember if they maxed out at 4 or 5.

 
At 40 hours you can be mostly done with the story portion of FFX HD.  By this point, the game's been so linear so haven't touched any of the side quests yet. Doing these easily add another 40-50 hours to the game.

I've been trying to avoid active trophy hunting, except for that one visual novel which was super boring and not worth it.

Just finished Mirror's Edge, won't even attempt all of the collectibles or 3 starring the dashes. Game is not very good. The first one is more fun and doesn't have endless open world fluff (too many pointless collectibles and a dumb upgrade system). Too bad, because I was looking forward to this.

Full game from what I read on reddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/PS4Deals/comments/4mwwuw/driveclub_749_via_psn_store/

It's a PS+ exclusive now on the store so it's the full game that was 14.99, despite them using the description of the Plus demo version. I'm waiting to see if they either put the season pass on sale or drop the Plus full game/season pass combo. The bikes add on at 15 bucks is also not included in the season pass.

I thought about getting the season pass for Driveclub, but I can't do the drifting events at all, so there's no way I'd be able to go for the trophies. And the only appeal the pass has to me is more trophies.

 
Got the Geometry Wars 3 plat on Vita.

Great mix of pull your hair out frustration, and at the same time remain fun. Possible the most addictive game I've played. And I had the constant mind frame of "just one more try. Oh damn, I died too quick. Ok, just one more try, this time I mean it."

Anyone who found this game not all that tough, my hat's off to you. There were many levels where after many (and many,many, many) attempts I conceded that this is the level that will finally break me and I will never progress. I must have done that on 10 levels. Probably more.

Highly recommend if you haven't tried it yet!

Now the hard part. What to play next...

I fired up Oddworld Strangers Wrath as I remember folks in here liking it. Not feeling that yet. Maybe Resogun.

Yeah, the amiibo is cool. Eventually the game will retain its value like all zelda games, until a reprint. Or just trade the game back in like I did and enjoy the amiibo.

Does it matter if I play Wind Waker or TP first? The whole series timeline is pretty ambiguous, right?

It probably doesn't matter since I won't get to it soon. I've only finished the first one. I might skip Zelda II and move onto LTTP.

Definitely doesn't matter at all. Zelda maniacs will pretend there's some big overarching lore, but really the games basically have no connection with one another. You could play them in any order.

Plus Twilight Princess is quite a bit better IMO.

Zelda 2 is awesome but definitely requires some patience and probably a bit of peaking at a guide to figure out where to go next.

I remember bookmarking this image awhile back. It supposedly explains everything, but it's still confusing as hell.

Bums and anyone else who still follows 3DS stuff, will you try to remember to post here if any of the other old Zelda games go on sale on 3DS (so 1, 2, LTTP, Awakening)? Thanks.

 
Happy birthday Diet Coke Junkey! Treat yourself to a regular Coke today, they're about a billion times better and have that delicious sugar/HFCS!

 
So we went to look at houses today. We got to one and there were all kinds of plants and ornaments and shit in the yard. The realtor gets the key out of the lockbox and we go inside to find all of the lights off and some old woman smoking pot in the living room. The place just reeked of it. House was absolutely filled with all kinds of garbage and clearly wasn't in shape to sell, either. We didn't even want to talk with the crazy woman just sitting there smoking and watching TV as we wandered around. Left pretty quick.  :whee:

 
For those with arslan in their backlog. There's a campaign going on right now with bonus chances for rare skill cards as well as 1.5x gold, experience, and weapon mastery.

Lower price for you!

 
Also if any of the amiibo collectors notice that the new Zelda amiibos go live on Amazon or BB, a post here would be awesome. I'll do the same if I notice it.
