A game like Mount and Blade... but plays like a real time strategy game.

[Sergarr]

ARMA/OFP style real time strategy, with massive combined arms combat.

Have you played 'Wargame - Red Dragon'? That's the closest you're going to get to proper combined arms, and it's very realistic - it's fiendishly hard though and isn't even vaguely like most RTS games.

World in Conflict is probably more of an RTS type thing, although you really require 3 friends (to fill out air, infantry, tank or support) to play it properly.

Oh... no, that's the second boss.

She's a pain unless you have one of two augments you would have no reason to have.

Any level of typhoon lets you exploit the invincibility of the animation and the stunning to cancel out her attacks with your own.

The generators with pools of liquid under them can be attacked (or you can lure her into hitting them with her own typhoon-esque augment IRRC) to electrocute her.  Unless you're lucky and practiced though you'll probably electrocute yourself, but there's an augment that cancels that out.

Since you don't have either of those things you need to find the machine gun right before that room.  Its awkward, but it has enough ammo to kill her.  There's more ammo inside, as well as I believe some grenades.  They'll be located in shelves around the edges of the room.  She should come out of cloak, attack, and then retreat.    What you'll need to do is learn her attack animation, learn to dodge it, and use the machine gun and if possible the electrocution to damage her.  Your cloak (you have one I hope), and any healing/energy items you have will hopefully keep you alive long enough to regenerate between attacks.  Don't be afraid to sprint around like a madman if you need more time.  It'll be frustrating but you can do it.

Why exactly the thin layer of metal under her skin lets her take over a hundred machine gun bullets at close range when she isn't wearing a helmet, I have no idea.  You can get that augment and it certainly doesn't do that for you :/

If you go up the ramp to the higher level, there's a bunch of gadgets that you can explode to damage her real good-like

edit: oops, that was already said. I am an illiterate fool, what can I do!

I want an upgraded Mount & Blade, period.  That is absolutely the game I want most right now.

It's in the works. You can go to the devs' website (NOT Paradox's, Taleworlds's site) and read some devlogs, if you feel like wanting it even harder.

Toribash + QWOP.
That  is all.

You can already run in toribash! Besides, sparring is basically that + cool fight moves.

[cadexn]

wurm online + mount & blade

life complete.

EVE with 4x the nullsec space, 2x the wormhole space, SWG crafting, more extensive use of PI resources, including more of them, also better interface. WF-like science system. Written in C++ with multicore support. Maybe remove attributes because they are annoying. Also more nullsec friendly industry. No stupid structure grind.

Would be brilliant!

looks like it

[WillowLuman]

QWOP + Landmines.

I know, and it's driving me crazy.

What I really want is for first/third person action/adventure games featuring melee combat (Skyrim, for example), to put just a fraction of the effort into their combat system that M&B did.  I can't enjoy melee combat in any other game after playing M&B.

So long ago in this thread I posted about basically wanting an open-world "dragon simulator."

It might actually happen.

It's not even alpha yet, so far just a model, some generic backdrops, and a slowly-coalescing physics system.  But if we all clap our hands and believe in fairies, it might make it to a real game one day instead of falling off into silence like so many of these tiny projects do!
