Ark: Survival Ascended GAMEPLAY?!?

We have all been waiting for it and now it is finally coming to pass! On Twitter, Ark: Survival Ascended announced we will FINALLY be getting some gameplay of the game. It has been a very weird launch process from Studio Wildcard. From false claims and promises, mixed and unmixed bundles, to outright confusion on what is happening. Is it going to be on Steam? Where is the "coming soon" which you are required by Steam to have two weeks before launch? Is it coming out at the end of this month? We are given assurance that it is on schedule to do so. Let's hope that it does! I am definitely excited to see dinosaurs in Unreal Engine 5!

Check out the gameplay at https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2023/10/23/xbox-partner-preview-announce/?ocid=Event_soc_omc_xbo_tw_Photo_lrn_10.23.1 1pm EST tomorrow! I suggest going on YouTube, as that is the only way to watch in 4k.

RTS Game Theory/Guide Part 2: Resource Management

RTS Game Theory/Guide: Resource Management This is a deeper look at how to manage resources, but because this game theory/guide is for all RTS games, it won’t be a deep dive into any one game specifically. I recommend doing some research on your own for specifics. As previously mentioned, resources are the supply for the demand(military). Having a great economy will field a great army. Let's break this down into separate categories: Resource Types: Most RTS games feature multiple types of resources, such as minerals, energy, food, gold, or wood. Understanding the different types and their uses is crucial. Buildings, units, and research all have specific costs of one or multiple of these resources. Depending on what you want to build, you need to allocate your workers to collect that resource. For example, if you need to train an army consisting of high cost gold units, you will need to collect more gold than the other resources. This may include assigning newly trained wor...

RTS Game Theory/Guide Part 1

RTS Game Theory: Multitasking Real Time Strategy games get their appeal from, well, the real time tactics. The thrill and suspense of split-decision making and constant action as you face off against the AI or other players make real time strategy games different from the other strategy games in the genre; it adds a whole other level of complexity in of itself. In this RTS Game Theory section, we are going to look at Multitasking . You may have tried an RTS for the first time and as you were learning the ropes for what building is what, you get attacked with a large force from an enemy. You go to move your army and…wait…you have one soldier just standing idly to face the threat. You were so focused on the economy, you forgot about your military. We have all been there. This frustration of everything going on at once can easily lead to frustration and quitting RTS games all together. Let’s break it down to an organized, manageable problem. The most common way to manage multitaskin...

Great Deals on GREAT GAMES?

I always keep an eye on Humble Bundle. Not only does it have great deals every so often, it also supports charity! I have enjoyed many games, books, and software from these bundles. As a gamer, a website that has great bundles across different gaming fields is a huge boon. Here are the top four bundles I am most excited about. Sid Meier's Ultimate Collection Bundle: This bundle includes Civilization 3-6 and Beyond Earth with many DLCs. For any 4X fan, Civilization 5 and 6 are amazing games that have really been the bar for other games. Another 4X games, how does this compare to Civ 6? You will see this in many reviews for other 4X games on Steam. This is for good reason. Civilization 6 has a lot of enjoyable content with different civilizations to play, good depth in gameplay and research/diplomacy aspects that keeps players coming back to Civilization games again and again. Another game I want to mention in this bundle is Sid Meier's Pirates. This is an old school game that...
