    Knowing that mission by heart was the only way I could beat it on normal.

    What do you expect when all the new threads are about topics we've already covered?

    I know... so we must try harder.

    But the statement was mostly for a laugh anyway.

    That looks epic! Would love to get back into FA but playing too many games right now and my OCD is demanding the "Congratulations you have got all the achievements for this game" for at least most of my games...

    Anyway what i'm up to.

    - Airmech: Amazing game, actually the first Free to Play game i'm considering throwing some money at. Can get a bit spammy at times but still really fun and for 126mb well worth a download!

    - World of Warcraft: After Cataclysm, I said never again (Even though they'd brought back some difficulty which been a Vanilla Vet I liked) now one of my friends managed to twist my arm and also make me move to a different server. Healing is piss easy as a Monk (I'm only level 75).

    - War Thunder: Another Free to Play game that is really fun but doubt I will throw money at it. Plus they will be adding Air, Land and Sea battles all to one game. Can't bloody wait!

    - Chivalry: Medieval First person game. With Limbs and Heads flying everywhere, a pretty good way to unwind... or get stressed to stupid deaths. Still its excellent.

    - Starcraft 2: Mostly Arcade games at the moment, pretty fed up with normal unit set now, i'm ready for HotS.

    - Assortment of other games on Steam which I need to get achievements for, Like Alien Breed, Shogun 2 (I still need to get back into making mods for this, people keep jumping on my current mods asking for my Generals tweak but don't have it in my at the moment, I see enough spreadsheets at work -.-), Dishonoured & Zombie Driver HD.

    - Spending time with the missus looking for to the birth of our first child... Need to get achievements quickly!

    V1 of my Super Unit, with its own Gantry. Put my Omega Commander in there for scaling. Might be changed later. What do you all think of it so far?

    You like war thunder? Check out World of Warplanes, a bit faster paced, I love it...

    I actually got a beta key back in August (Through PC Gamer) it was fun but didn't appeal to me as much as what War Thunder has...

    Might log back in though to see the changes...

    I guess you don't care for the simulation modes but they do have an arcade mode that's basically WoWP with a bit more in variety when it comes to planes. I think you'll like it as it offers quite a bit nicer graphics but still keeps it at a good clip with plenty of players on that mode all the time.

    I've been playing FA and SupCom 2 recently, alongside Dota 2 to pass the time. Most of my time is spent being a college student, so that helps, I suppose.

    Been playing the former two in hopes that I can get a bit better, as I've never been very good at RTS games. I love the genre, I'm just not too hot at playing it.
