GTA in a tuk tuk might be entertaining.

I just unlocked the KV-1 in WoT.
It's strange, prior to moving to Phnom Penh, I would spend a few hours every day gaming and now I'm lucky if I can get an hour a month.
I've got three games installed on this shitty laptop, that number might increase when it gets replaced on Saturday but for now it's Hotline Miami, Hotline Miami 2 and World of Tanks.

I was hooked on gaming before I moved to Phnom Penh. I was spending most woken hours of most days practicing, developing strategies and tactics and training for the competition leagues.
This was back before gaming was mainstream so it was considered very odd behavior. Somehow the team I was in even managed to get some sponsorship.
Fortunately the move to Cambodia and the shitty internet that followed cured me of that addiction.

I call bull on people who say they don't play here due to internet. My main 2 games (PoE and LoL) get 30 to 50 ping from their Singapore servers, and even North America LoL servers are under 100 ping for me most of the time.

You know as well as I do that the quality of internet was far different 10 years ago so why would you call bull on what I said?Bubble T wrote:I call bull on people who say they don't play here due to internet.

The only relevant games I can think of from 10 years ago are D2 and WoW, and there were dedicated internet cafes set up specifically for those games here. Maybe I'm missing something. In any case, you can now return to your old waysGin&Tonic wrote:You know as well as I do that the quality of internet was far different 10 years ago so why would you call bull on what I said?Bubble T wrote:I call bull on people who say they don't play here due to internet.

Yep, don't think you've worked out who I am.Bubble T wrote:Maybe I'm missing something.
Games I'm talking about are Quake, unreal tournament, RTCW etc...
Those games were specifically designed for lan play rather than online so ping was very important. Anything > 50ms and forget it.
As for getting back into it. I tried a bit a few years ago when bf3 came out. Just didn't like the gameplay. It was now less about having fast reflexes and being able to script but more about who could afford the most powerful pc. The last game I bought was GTA V. Very impressive looking game and a 60gb steam download. I played the first mission and then never touched it again. $50 well spent..
Getting too old for that shit now
My piece of shit laptop can't even run Age of Empires Hd at a reasonable framerate so I just gave up on gaming.
Ye, I don't read enough of k440 anymore to know who most people are, nor am I (or have I ever been) into first person shooters. Give LoL a try, whole different world.
