What happened to games like Commandos and Desperados?
They were too fucking hard jesus christ.
There's difficult, and then there's shit like Commandos and the later levels in Desperados.
Also Desperados 2 was shit.
>>260321663
>They were too fucking hard jesus christ.
this is what toddlers actually believe.
Unplayable by casuals
>>260321663
>They were too fucking hard jesus christ.
I beat this when I was probably 1/3 your age. Comon man.
Commandos was turned in to a FPS for a wider audience and failed miserably.
Not sure what happened to Desperados.
It's a damn shame, i loved these kinds of games.
>>260321758
he's right tho, its to hard for the average plebian
>>260321980
Holy shit, I almost forgot they actually tried to do that.
>>260321663
Desperados 2 wasn't that bad. Sure, 3D sucked, but you could still play from top-down perspective. It had less features, admittedly
Just in case someone doesn't know Heldorados is sequel to desperados. Its similar to desperados 2, but better.

Back in the day you had kids playing RPG and turn based strategies / RTS games. Now it's WoW and LoL/DotA hand holding and minimal effort games AT BEST. RPG games are now gay romance simulators. Turn based games are non existant outside indie and Japan. RTS is dead as a genre.
Can anyone get original Desperados to work on windows 8?

>>260322503

>>260322503
>Dota and LoL

Just because the focus is around one unit doesn't make it inferior, you just like classic RTS and don't have the testicles to realize the difference between that and a competitive moba.
Can't account for reasoning skills these days.
I got the demo disc of Desperados in a box of cereal when I was super young. I played it for hours despite never lasting more than 5 minutes.
Bought the full game on GoG last year and beat it. It's really good.

I just ran it and it worked though.
Isometric, prerendered maps with the level of Detail Commandos had were a form of fucking art.
>>260323880
Must be a problem with windows 8 then. I tried running it through virtual machine, but it didn't help.
>>260321663
Commandos 2 wasn't hard, it was just very bullshitty.
Better bind quicksave and quickload to LMB and RMB if you want to succeed.
>Still loved it doe
>>260321498
Same thing that happened to other niche genres. The combination of conservative developer strategies, mainstream audience and consoles being unfit for complex gameplay on account of controllers and miniscule amounts of ram lead to a shit ton of variety in games vanishing around the turn of the millennium.

Never heard of Desperados. Is the gameplay similar?
>>260325162
Indie devs seldom played vidya other than old console shovelware and that's the standard they settle for.
Besides, its one of the techniques that reqiire the most talent, love and effort to pull off.
>>260321498

>JA2 fag
>>260325360
It's a lot easier. Follows the story of Robin Hood.
Story missions are pretty similar to Desperados but there are also smaller missions like saving people, robbing stagecoaches and defending the forest.
You have your own camp in the forest, you train your men, craft stuff you can use in missions and choose your next objective.
There´s a Robin Hood game that´s like Desperados and Commandos on drugs
Give it a try.

it's probably easier and shorter than even Commandos 2.
Only Commandos 1 was difficult and even that can be broken as long as you have the green beret and keep distracting enemies.
The games required you to actually use your fucking brains, unlike todays games. Press X to win, achievement unlocked, blah blah. Gaming industry is shit now.
>>260328589
Commandos 2 had some PRESS X TO WIN

I'm so fucking pissed that there aren't any games like them anymore. But maybe it's better that way, they had a good run and now they rest in piece. I'm just sad that Commandos got raped by the FPS reboot, holy shit was I mad, even Commandos 3 was pretty lackluster in length compared to its predecessors.
Also Desperados 2 and Helldorado, or whateveer the fuck they called it was utter shit, fuck 3D.
I said it before and I'll say it again, you will never be able to make 3D as beautiful and charming as hand painted scenery, no matter what level of realism you achieve with 3D.
>Heroes of Might and Magic
>4, 5, 6

Some genre's just don't need graphical improvements
Can't play games like these on console.
CoD babbies would probably give up after 2 minutes though.
>>260329446
I still don't understand what went through their mind when they made Strike Force.
CoD audience wasn't even a big thing then.
>>260329446
Hand painted mapsalong with live action moviesis the best thing ever in videogames.
>>260325464
Desperado relied too much on simply giving you guns as a solution.
I loved Commandos 1 and 2
But already the demo for the third one detered me from buying/playing it
Desperados was fun, never tried the sequel
But I recently bought them on gog, now I've just to find some time
>>260329446

>>260330131
What? You don't even need to use guns to beat the game, apart from maybe the final mission IIRC.
>>260329446
>Some genre's just don't need graphical improvements
Or being handed to third grade developers who don't give a fuck.
>>260330364
did commandos have limited ammo for guns? desperados gives you unlimited ammo and wild west setting supports a more "shooty" approach as opposed to ALARM ALARM immediately alerting the entire map to your presence and other things present in a WW2 game.
>>260321758
I don't know, Commandos is pretty tough unless you save regularly, though I guess it has more to do with the length of the missions than anything.
>>260321498
they weren't adaptable to gamepads and didn't have enough of an audience to justify modern day development costs.
>>260330586
Ammo were also unlimited in Commandos.
Also shooting guns in Desperados alert half the map most of the time.
Yes you can go all shooty easier in Desperados, but stealth is much more fun.
>>260330370
The first time I played that atrocity of video game programming I was one the verge of tears. Half of the shit either not working at all or fucked up. CPU opponents rushing at you with parties full of high level units in the first turns. HoMM like combat. Ugly 3D graphics.
Disciples 2 is one of my favourite games, so it really hurt.
>>260330871
Not really. They're just not today's brand of easy aka braindead. You actively need to think about shit in these games and they don't hold your hand with quest markers and shit.
>>260331124
I could have sworn you had limited ammo and you had to scavenge it from enemies. I could be thinking about Silent Storm, though.
>>260325162
>If only indie games took this path of making 2D games instead of making pixel shit

>>260321980
I'm pretty sure Desperados also turned into a mix of the old stuff and first person.
>>260331461
Doesn't really matter that much in Commandos though since shooting is almost equal to suicide anyway.
>>260326872
holy shit that sound awesome
>>260331137
Disciples 3 was offensively bad. How do you even manage to fuck up a game that badly?
>>260322947
Desperados is on Steam as well, no idea if it's any different.
>>260325162
but that would require actual talent
>>260331583
Why is everything so noisy? Just look at those shadows on that nano fabrication platform.
>>260331696
Good lord. The expansion and patches fixed nothing, right?
>>260321498
They are disgustingly linear, usually after just few playthroughs you've simply done everything you could.
>>260325162

Really? Because when the level had a tank, my mission was to get to that tank.
Lvls like the one with the petrol station, oaha beach or the air base. Just GET THE TANK AND BLOW UP EVERYONE!
It is really relaxing after all the hiding alarm frat to just dizimate the germans in a tank. Come on anon.

>>260333943
These games encouraged player creativity and imagination on how you will finish the mission instead of "PRESS X TO WIN". Everybody did their own thing and won the mission using many different tactics, stealth, brute force, explosives, vehicles etc.

World War II-themed FPSs were ridiculously popular back then. They probably just thought that, since Commandos was already a relatively famous franchise, they could half-ass an FPS spin-off and people would buy it anyway.
It's sad, really; Pyro Studios never managed to recover from that blunder. Last time I checked, they renamed themselves as "Pyro Mobile" and are centered on facebook and mobile phone games.
>>260341065
literally they turned commandos into an FPS and it tanked.
>>260341210
I miss landing with 12 rookies and only 2-3 survive, picking out the best gear individually for each soldier and making sure to sacrifice your shitty rookies.
Now its like babbies first turn based strategy game :'(
>>260341210
I didn't mind it because it's blatantly a different game. It's not like they tried to do the original and fucked it up, it's a completely different game design-wise.
>>260322503
I played many games even then and commandos is too hard. by design the most effective tactic is too savescum like fuck and see what sticks and what doesn't. and then there'll be tight spots that you'll be able to get out of by spamming the handgun after you've reloaded the game ten times. it's doable but it's too weirdly paced
it'd be better if you could still finish levels even after a guy died. or a limited rewind feature. or save spots.

They were just clunky action games and not much else. Basically the Lost Vikings in a isometric view. There not tactical in the slightest. Because it's own design pigeon holed it forever.
They are a blast to play in coop though. Which unfortunately Desperados didn't have for some reason.

Shit, I was young as hell when I first played these games. I can remember the Zoo level and vividly remember the game was all about patience and taking things slowly. If you got spotted just kill everyone.

>Zoo level
mah niggah. that was my favorite level
>tfw knocking out everyone without killing anyone
>tfw patient and clean execution
Commandos had pretty comfy levels as well

>I can remember the Zoo level
>tfw knocking out and tying up guards, then dropping them in the pens with the animals.
Hours of fun.

I have high hopes for this game.
If this fails, the only thing I have to look forward to is Tides of Numenera really.
Anyone else missing Fallout Tactics?
I remember playing some awesome multiplayer matches, if you ban rocket launchers and gatlings

my only memory of this game is protecting the vehicle through the city
Someone should screencap this entire thread.
Talking about great games, minimun shitposts.
Glory day /v/.
Now....what is commandos 1 best level and why is it Fireworks?

Sarevok's gang doesn't all aggro at the same time. Just pull them back and take them out 1 by 1.
Also, Sarevok was my favorite companion out of both games.
>>260351194
they look like shit in motion though.. it all looks so fake and lifeless

At least post the entire map.
Took 30 seconds of google.

Haha, I loved Desperados, finished it when i was around 10. I love how you get the fight Diablo in the end.

Diver always sounded so pissed at you in the first game. No matter how well I execute the mission, he's still grumpy.

what i appreciate with a game like commandos, especially compared to today, is that it treats you with enough respect to allow you to fail. To allow you to be frustrated. To be an actual challenge that you must rise above and conquer. To offer an actual feeling of accomplishment instead of merely completion.
And today in gaming i see the same analogue in society: rewarding mediocrity. Instead of creating challenges to rise above that create a sense of self-worth and accomplishment, the bar is lowered to the point it can be stepped over...by everyone.

Commandos 3 is the easiest one.
You can go loud and kill everything with guns easy mode.

How a MOBA takes minimal effort to reach the ceiling?
To reach the ceiling and get among top players takes years, how easy is this?
>>260333501
Dats easy!
Comin'.
Comin over!
OIM COMIN'!
>>260321663
are you a moron?
>>260346959
I've tried this recently, apart from horrible controls and AI and tons of glitched it's very fun
The sequel is much better though
>>260325162
>pixel shit
its all because they want sales. for some reason pixelated shit is popular as fuck right now. little kids are idiots and think anything that is pixelated is exactly like minecraft. so they tell their parents to buy it. im not kidding. my little cousin does this.

The only missions I had trouble with in Desperados were the one you couldn't kill anyone or raise any alarm and the last one. Commandos has always been the bane of my existence though.
The Robin Hood game was my favourite, wasn't terribly hard but wasn't totally easy, trying to do later levels on hard without kills was a bitch. Also had a lot of cool little touches like the reputation system and being able to do sidequests like robbing carriages and freeing prisoners. Shame it's pretty much impossible to run on today's computers.
>>260321498
>What happened to games like Commandos and Desperados?
idiocracy
