general-chat

[heavy tangle]

I got the Series S

[steep sand]

I like having a disc drive cuz like 80% of my games are physical

[hardy basalt]

I can see 60 fps, but 120 doesnt make a big difference to me

[steep sand]

😭 too bad my games still need to download over internet

[twin axle]

But he’s. It’s better.

[hardy basalt]

Must be because I play on a big TV

[fallow moat]

120 is like 60 fps on halo infinite. 60 is okay, but not as smooth.

[twin axle]

Big difference. It’s usually above 165 that I don’t see a difference.

[vocal gorge]

I like to target 60+ FPS at 4K maxed settings (ray tracing and path tracing not included) on PC

[hardy basalt]

60 is good but 30 is playable too

[twin axle]

Yeah I have a 5090 any game that’s only hitting 60 is a failure. Ehem…/ suicide squad

[heavy tangle]

u like to get up & changing disc each time?...😂

[steep sand]

I got a whole bass and big speaker setup for my Xbox lol

[twin axle]

I’ll never play a game at 30fps.

[hardy basalt]

Even if you put it at 1080p?

[twin axle]

I don’t play 1080

[steep sand]

At least I don’t lose my games due to account and server issues😭

[twin axle]

4k and up

[steep sand]

U think I pay for gamepass ultimate after the price increase? Nah I straight up bought bo7💀

[hardy basalt]

You dont lose

You just have to set up offline play on Xbox

You can play your already installed games if Xbox Live is down

[heavy tangle]

well even if u got a disc, online gaming servers can close

[hardy basalt]

That is a very remote possibility

[twin axle]

My monitor is 5k and my side monitor is 4k

[hardy basalt]

Even Xbox 360 still has Xbox Live

[vocal gorge]

Nice, I have a 5080

[hardy basalt]

From 20 years ago

[twin axle]

Which only gets used for web browsing and work.

[fallow moat]

On this day in 2005, Half-Life 2 was released for the Xbox.

[twin axle]

I still need to get rid of my 1440p ultrawide oled. Nobody even wants to buy it for 500

[vocal gorge]

5K ultra wide or 16:9?

[twin axle]

Eeerr my bad.

[vocal gorge]

Holy link! 😄

[hardy basalt]

But the 5090 cant play older cods online

[hardy basalt]

My Series X can

[steep sand]

Why

[twin axle]

That’s what I have

[hardy basalt]

You will get hacked on PC

[twin axle]

And

[steep sand]

My Xbox one S and my 2013 Xbox one can

[hardy basalt]

COD WW2 (2017) and below have a security flaw where your pc gets hacked

[steep sand]

I still play cod 4 online on pc💀

[hardy basalt]

You can get hacked if you dont use a private server

Are you on vanilla cod 4 on pc?

[vocal gorge]

Ooh, that monitor is really nice. How’s the 800R curve?

[steep sand]

Nope…

[hardy basalt]

You must have something else installed to play it safely

[twin axle]

It’s good to me.

[hardy basalt]

There are some fan servers like Plutonium

[steep sand]

Nope I got nothing

[hardy basalt]

You can get hacked then

[twin axle]

I am able to see everything without turning my head.

[steep sand]

Never did…yet

[hardy basalt]

If someone with bad intentions join the same lobby as you

[steep sand]

Rip

I might just stay with consoles

[vocal gorge]

I have the predecessor to that monitor. LG 32GS95UE

[open flume]

[steep sand]

I might get a series X and never play on pc again

[hardy basalt]

This happens in ww2 and below

Bo4 and up is safe on PC

[steep sand]

How is bo4 safe

I thought it didn’t have anti cheat

[hardy basalt]

it has hackers but they only hack the match

Not your whole pc

That is the problem with cod ww2 and below on pc

[twin axle]

The one that’s glossy and is 165hz 4k?

[hardy basalt]

Every game has hackers, even some on console.
But cod on pc is the only game that I know that hackers can hack your PC

[fallow moat]

What about modern warfare 2 on console?

[steep sand]

I have WW2 on my Xbox, is it even active still, I can download it, I have the disc

[hardy basalt]

Hackers on the match but they dont hack your console

[heavy tangle]

old Halo 1 servers still running?

[fallow moat]

Microsoft’s gotta do something man.

[hardy basalt]

Og mw2 on pc, people can steal your data

[steep sand]

That’s been dead since 2010 I thought

[hardy basalt]

Halo Custom Edition? Yes

But MCC too

[fallow moat]

Old Halo CE never had online.

[hardy basalt]

Yeah, the og xbox version

[fallow moat]

Thinkin’ reach from CEA?

[twin axle]

Might go play halo 2 on the legion go 2. Since that game is my trash talking child hood.

[vocal gorge]

No, 4K 240Hz or 1080p 480Hz just like what you listed but I think the only change is the one you linked supports Displayport 2.1 (UHBR 13.5) vs mine that is limited to Displayport 1.4

[heavy tangle]

ohh true 😂

[elfin thistle]

[twin axle]

Oooooo

[hardy basalt]

People play Halo CE since 2001

Still very active

[twin axle]

Gotcha. Yeah I only use it as my side monitor or my work computer monitor. I need to ask work to give me an Apple MacBook Air dock that supports more than one monitor. But that’s a story for another day.

[heavy tangle]

remembering the Duke

[fallow moat]

Xbox Live came in 2002 on this day so H2 had it.

[idle spear]

I remember Halo 2 was the only reason I even got the online at the time

[kind heron]

That's not true at all. The worst anyone can really do on a peer-to-peer server is see your IP and mess with your router. But that happened on Xbox peer-to-peer servers too.

[lunar panther]

didn't you post this same video yesterday lol

[queen lotus]

inb4 Deek accidentally reveals he’s a time traveler.

[twin axle]

I did.

[merry palm]

winter burrow is soooo cute

such a cozy game so far

i just knitted myself a lil sweater , how adorable is that?!

[shut plaza]

BO7’s multiplayer is good, but I find it slightly falls for the same issues that ruined BO6. Adding movement mechanics while designing the maps for campers

Regardless, in 20 minutes of BO7 I’ve had 10x more fun than I had playing hours of BO6

[limber carbon]

yeah, he'S really cute. Hope to see more chinese anime's in this direction.
This anime is indirectly tied to NeZha ( i believe)

[merry palm]

im not much of a show watching person, but i like cute things

[twin axle]

I think I’ll smoke a cigad tonight and just chill.

In 8C weather.

[merry palm]

good fall temp

[bold monolith]

it’s 71 degrees here lol (21c)

[twin axle]

I should still invest in a projector for my backyard. Most nights it’s pitch dark unless some neighbour keeps their back light on.

[twin axle]

Same here now. The beginning of last week was nothing higher than 5C

[bold monolith]

it doesn’t get that cold here until like early December

at least for high temps

[twin axle]

😕

The bipolar weather here is beyond dumb

[bold monolith]

the weather here is always either dry for months or tornadoes every other day or constant rain

[lunar panther]

(consider referring to the weather a different way than referencing a mental health condition)

[twin axle]

Zooinks

Yeah it’s always back and forth. No consistency.

[merry palm]

sounds pretty standard for autumn

[elfin thistle]

🖤

[twin axle]

Would love cold weather all the time.

[elfin thistle]

I live in Houston Texas, it's hot 9 months out of the year

Even now its 81° in November

[small coyote]

Worst antivirus in existence?

[twin axle]

God damn

Yeah kill that noise.

Keep your dry heat

[elfin thistle]

Summers are 102°

[twin axle]

Don’t want that either.

[fallow moat]

Doom: The Dark Ages has been out for 6 months? Oh that’s wild. Fantastic game.

[thin nimbus]

What's the actual reason why company's stop giving us free cloud storage? For photos ? We know that they company's actually pays so little for cloud storage so what's the actual reason why they stopped free storage and why they rise prices? They tells us it's because of cost but that's not true because it only costs so little for them

[fiery python]

Storage isn't that cheap.

[twin axle]

They do give us cloud storage. It’s just a smaller amount.

I think someone even tried to take Apple to court over it.

It failed.

[lunar panther]

Sets of data are growing over the years. People are using lots of storage. It's not as cheap as when cloud storage first became a thing.

[merry palm]

the amount of things we store has only risen, its not just a few things anymore
it is pretty unreasonable to expect they would just pay for more and more space for everyone forever

its like giving some one a shelf to put stuff on and then when they run out of room being expected to buy a whole bookcase for their things (or more)

[twin axle]

Pay up or host in yourself.

[merry palm]

honestly the cost isnt extreme

i pay like 2 dollars a month for my needs

Touch grass or some

[merry palm]

[twin axle]

Yeah now it is.

[mint lodge]

[twin axle]

Chinese food.

[lunar panther]

[merry palm]

im deciding what i want for lunch and if i have to leave my house for it

[lunar panther]

[elfin thistle]

Couple weeks ago my Uber eats guy came on a bicycle

[mint lodge]

Lol

[merry palm]

i really want this curry i had last month lol

[lunar panther]

?????????????????????????????????????????????????

[twin axle]

Doubt it.

[elfin thistle]

I can prove it

[merry palm]

means i have to get into non pajamas! its a big decision!

[twin axle]

They probably said it’s a bike and actually came in a car.

I have seen that before.

[mint lodge]

What is pajamas btw

[merry palm]

ive had uber eats come on bicycle

its pretty normal

[merry palm]

the clothes you wear to bed, typically

[twin axle]

lol. That person doesn’t look like a Samantha.

[mint lodge]

Wth ur talking about like pant

[twin axle]

Maybe it’s their partner’s account.

[mint lodge]

Why u talking about these stuff btw

[twin axle]

Anyway. Let’s eat!

[merry palm]

it feels really weird to have a stranger ask me what i am wearing, ngl

pajamas is a general term. asking specifics is a bit creepy

[twin axle]

Yeah.

Tes and I finally agree on something.

[mint lodge]

W speed

[merry palm]

assume this is my pajamas:

https://tenor.com/view/cold-so-cold-catwalk-strut-big-blanket-gif-16335144

[lunar panther]

This is gold considering your earlier statement about your dasher

[twin axle]

And?

[lunar panther]

And practicing self awareness is important

[mint lodge]

Btw what rtx will on Xbox series x ik it's an custom chip but still we compare his specs to an rtx which would it be ik it's but anyoying but anyways what u think may be rtx3060

[twin axle]

K

[limpid flicker]

Quoted For Emphasis.

[lunar panther]

@queen lotus hey just wanted to let you know I booted up my Steam Deck and it had a bunch of updates 🤣

[queen lotus]

lol. I’ll boot up mine too, so it’ll be ready for the next time.

[limber carbon]

Michelin, I found your cousin!!

How cold is it up there?

[lunar panther]

Points at my Steam Deck
Oh this thing right here? It's my Update machine. It's where I go to take updates. First I boot it up, then I go and take this update. Then it restarts and once I'm in the main menu and the update is complete, I put it to sleep and wait do this all over again!

[mint lodge]

I heard that steam is launching their family console?

[limber carbon]

People were looking at me mad today, as I was out in shorts and t-shirts.
It was 6 °C / 42.9 °F

[merry palm]

i put it more for the fact its entire coverage and wholly unattractive more than for the warmth yet lol

its not really cold yet here

[fiery python]

No, it's still a PC.

[mint lodge]

What specs of it!

[fiery python]

I don't know off the top of my head, but they're on their website.

[pallid ruin]

Weaker than a PS5

[fiery python]

Not something I'm interested in, so I didn't bother paying attention to the specs.

[mint lodge]

Also Xbox series s?

[pallid ruin]

Stronger than a series S. It in between

[mint lodge]

Bru like series s will die

[merry palm]

yeah im also not interested but i think the box is more geared to people unwilling or unable to set up their own steam pc hooked to their tv. which is super valid

[limber carbon]

As long as it doesn't block your vision, its okay. And it keep you warm
My coats I usually more functional as if anything happens,
I have an eye on my exits, and can jet out there with minimum effort

[fiery python]

It really wont. Series S is still cheaper and a console, which many people prefer to PC

It's also already sold tons of units

[merry palm]

i am a big fan of the oodie (blanket hoodies)

[mint lodge]

It's like a mini pc but if it's stronger than Xbox series s then imo it's set back to Xbox series s if it's price also like in 289$

[pallid ruin]

Base on Linus videos, Valve told him that the Steam machine will be price like a PC so it going to be much more expensive than any console

[fiery python]

There's no way it's going to be priced the same or less than a Series S.

[merry palm]

i would be shocked it it went under 500

happy for people, but shocked

[twin axle]

Booting up my legion go 2

Oled screen never looked better ion a handheld.

[pallid ruin]

Valve said it will be price competitively to like a PC with similar specs you can build yourself. To recreate the Steam machine you need almost $900. So it be price below or around that

[mint lodge]

Bro steam have to launch their console like there is no more options just two Xbox n ps it's wired now someone have to take step in console Industry imo steam and switch has best potential to build a there new unique console plus steam is also like there r cheaper games I heard so it also good for them

[limber carbon]

I'll wait till the prices are announced,
no use getting all worked up now.
Might still go for the series X console.

[steady pilot]

NoBody knows the price. But valve themselves said they can cut cost vs the steam deck not having an oled panel. I’m expecting 599-799 for the steam machine.

[steady pilot]

Depending if you get the 512 or 2tb

[lunar panther]

While that only shows specs, I'm not convinced specs are all that important for what you're getting with it

[merry palm]

^

the ease of having steam games on the tv is the goal yeah

[limber carbon]

Lara Croft?
For online streaming? What?

[merry palm]

and again.. i dont think its marketted to people who are looking at specs

its an ease of access marketing.

[steady pilot]

Steam machine will probably perform roughly to a pa5 or series x. Less ram available but uses rdna 3 vs Xbox rdna2

[pallid ruin]

It doesn’t have the optimization advantage that a studio does when porting to console

[steady pilot]

That is true

[limber carbon]

Never thought I'll see a racing sim on Game pass streaming

[lunar panther]

I'm not convinced the performance will come that close. They aren't even shooting for 4K@120 - they are shooting for 4K@60

[mint lodge]

We have to look on specs bc if it stronger it life time will increase in upcoming gen like let's take example Xbox series s it's a good console but like it's gpu is weak then last gen consoles like Xbox one x so dev also said they have difficulty in optimize games for it major compromise and the main thing while world is looking for gta 6 that comming on series s

[lunar panther]

(again, not even that important)

[merry palm]

please reread what i said.

lol

[mint lodge]

Ik just I said my opinion

[steady pilot]

No point in shooting for 4k 120 on a box made for the living room. A lot of tvs are 60fps max

[merry palm]

i think if you are looking at specs, it is not being marketed to you at all.

might still be cool for you

but thats not the target audience bc i can build a better one.

[mint lodge]

Like I'm talking future of Xbox series s bro

[sterile sequoia]

Is the steam machine considered a console or mini pc?

[pallid ruin]

Mini PC

[merry palm]

pc

[steady pilot]

Some people will care about specs and want to get it. For me it really depends on price since I buy them in threes. Have 4 series consoles. Need one of these for each kid

[south cipher]

So i played the first mission of bo7....what a load of rubbish. Waste of a game development

[sterile sequoia]

Then don’t play it

[elfin thistle]

I heard information that voting for the 2025 game awards begins on Monday, but I'm not certain how factual that is

[south cipher]

Im not going to...I only wanted to see if i was going to like the first mission

[mint lodge]

It's on game pass?

[sterile sequoia]

Yeah gamepass ultimate

[south cipher]

Yeah...Im glad i didnt buy it

[merry palm]

yep

[lunar panther]

I'm not sure I 100% agree with this, but found it interesting

[mint lodge]

How is it

[south cipher]

Worst COD campaign ever

[limber carbon]

backrolling on Gabe's yacht 😄

[south cipher]

If I wanna play zombies then ill play zombies not campaign

[merry palm]

i think its a decent graphic. not perfect but like.. always outliers exist

[nimble glacier]

If I had a quarter for every mobile/pc game that has full xbox controller support but isn't on xbox, I could buy 2 orders of 5 pc fried wing from the chinese restaurant next to the grocery store

[twin axle]

DOA

[mint lodge]

Btw it's same with fc game like they release fc every year and I didn't see a single change or smth in it just change of interface idk what these game industry r doing now same with cod

[twin axle]

Don’t bring that Visio mess in here.

[merry palm]

?

[pallid ruin]

PC gaming is not worth the hype. Xbox got sales and huge library too

[merry palm]

.....

uh

[south cipher]

Yeah...im glad the community is realising this

[lunar panther]

Hi, it's literally me in that flow chart lol

[merry palm]

hate to break it to you but pc gaming has far far more games 😂

[mint lodge]

Bru game pass price r so much up

[lunar panther]

That's not even Visio 🤣

100% thats either Miro or Figma

[finite iron]

https://tenor.com/view/vision-marvel-gif-11970033

[astral yacht]

Not a support thingy but js asking if its worth buying an Xbox series X ( im originally a PC gamer but cant afford to buy a new pc ) im planning on buying the Xbox Series X with a cooler stand so its like 535 total ( GBP )

[twin axle]

Yeah yeah yeah.

[mint lodge]

Ye just waste of money I just downloaded fc 25 and they r advertising their fc26 like they r saiding to wate ur 60$ for just freak game that have no general change

[nimble glacier]

Stupid dumb bot

[finite iron]

Hello to you too Tes

[twin axle]

Looool. Here we go.

[mint lodge]

Be chill vro

[nimble glacier]

I only said the s word

[pallid ruin]

Does it have popular game that console don’t have

[lunar panther]

I almost don't want to ask you this, but why are you so certain it'll be DOA.

[bleak robin]

[merry palm]

yes

lol

[pallid ruin]

I can’t think of any

[merry palm]

thats bc you apparently dont pc game

[nimble glacier]

They got us fighting Gungrave bosses in the new cod campaign bruh

[merry palm]

feel free to use google tho!

[twin axle]

Especially NSBM

[bleak robin]

There are a lot more indie games on PC than console cause it’s easier to develop for computers than consoles

[twin axle]

It’s just a joke that you won’t find funny

[bleak robin]

Le gasp! who is this?

[merry palm]

a joke that people dont find funny is not a joke.. its just a bad take

[queen lotus]

if this part expanded to "Are you depressed and/or stress and use spending money as therapy?" it would hit me.

[pallid ruin]

But those aren’t popular

[bleak robin]

They definitely are on PC lol

[pallid ruin]

It more about games that matter and if it missing

[bleak robin]

Megabonk is a fantastic example

[merry palm]

this is what steam sales are for smh

[fallow moat]

Randy Savage (wrestler) would’ve been 73 today. RIP.

[merry palm]

lots of popular console games start on pc too and then get ports

[bleak robin]

But you asked if it has popular games that console doesn’t have

[nimble glacier]

Y'all ever heard of KittyKart 64?

[smoky vector]

No need for a cooler stand

[shy viper]

E?

[bleak robin]

Games that “matter” is subjective and games that you like may not be on PC or vice versa, but that doesn’t mean the games aren’t popular

[merry palm]

english only in here, thanks

[shy viper]

Que?

[bleak robin]

Can I translate for them Tes?

[merry palm]

no

[queen lotus]

my backlog rules is stopping me from buying anymore games. but I don't have a rule for gaming hardware. just a gf that will yell at me. but i just got her a switch 2, so that should hold her for a bit so I can spend carelessly.

[merry palm]

they understood

[twin axle]

It’s still a joke. Mmmmkay.

[merry palm]

maybe work on jokes that people find funny?

its a thought

[twin axle]

Wait you like BM?

[bleak robin]

I don’t know who that is

[twin axle]

Black metal

[bleak robin]

Uhhh maybe?

[twin axle]

Either you do or don’t.

Not in between.

[merry palm]

i dont think thats how that works

[bleak robin]

I would argue that you definitely can be in between. I could like some artists and not others ^~^
I’m unsure what “Black Metal” is. Can you give me an example of some bands?

[twin axle]

Mayhem, Behemoth, Rotting Christ, Watain

[bleak robin]

I’ll give em a listen ^~^

[twin axle]

It’s not for everyone.

But let me know what you think

[lunar panther]

Rotting Christ

https://tenor.com/view/umm-confused-blinking-okay-white-guy-blinking-gif-7513882

[bleak robin]

So far so good on Behemoth

[twin axle]

Yes.

[bleak robin]

Reminds me of Rammstein

[twin axle]

Mm

[merry palm]

im so sad. one of my fave artists is coming to the area, and i cannot afford a ticket

why putting tickets on sale right before the hols

[lunar panther]

I need a good remote desktop offering for the Steam Deck - can't be asked messing about in Desktop mode on it

[merry palm]

smh

[twin axle]

What artist?

[merry palm]

jack johnson

[twin axle]

Waiting indeed.

[finite depot]

Hi guys

Is there any hdr calibration app on xbox

[lunar panther]

It's in the settings

[blazing grove]

What your guys favorite outdoor food

[lunar panther]

what do you mean by outdoor food?

[finite depot]

Thats not the app i think thats just hdr calibration for games right?

[merry palm]

all food is outdoor food

[blazing grove]

Takeaway

[merry palm]

ah

[finite depot]

Chopstix noodles for now

[lunar panther]

It helps you calibrate your TV - isn't that what you want?

[finite depot]

Cant find anything better

[finite depot]

There is 2 options one is hdr calibration for games another one is for tv

[elfin thistle]

British call takeout takeaway right?

[merry palm]

i usually try to hit food trucks

[finite depot]

I did the for games now i am confused do i need to do it for tv as wrll

[twin axle]

Chinese food eaten.

[merry palm]

tacos are my fave

[twin axle]

Now time to watch little bear.

[elfin thistle]

Getting a Chinese is what British call it

[twin axle]

I don’t want the Chinese, I want their food.

[lunar panther]

For TV, you can do so via the settings on Xbox. It's there. You go there and it shows images, and then you adjust your TV settings while looking

[finite depot]

Is it necessary

[elfin thistle]

Idk why they say it like that

[lunar panther]

Yes

[finite depot]

You think i did for the games same like ps5 now for tv

I dont know

[bleak robin]

Behemoth was good uwu

[lunar panther]

When you did it, did you adjust TV settings in the process? If you did, then there is no need

[elfin thistle]

British English is so funny. I still dont understand Whilst

[finite depot]

I am actually using monitor

And for hdr i didnt had to change that many settings to be honest

For sdr i changed it perfectly using a yt video

So thats why but confused do i need or not?

[lunar panther]

replace "TV" with "Monitor" and my statements still stand

[bleak robin]

Hmmm. I have a query. I have a monitor sitting atop my computer that needs a USB-C input for power. (I have it plugged in to my computer via HDMI cause it doesn't have USBC video out). Do you think the top USB-A connector could provide enough power to the monitor for it to run?

[twin axle]

Oh

And Dimmu Borgir

[finite depot]

I get you but do you believe i need it or not ? Did you do it

[elfin thistle]

Someone said smart tvs are just big tablets

[twin axle]

https://open.spotify.com/track/1JEbu4sbfwNnjetAaaYGmU?si=duvOCkE_Tq-PXGvpBLTa1g

[bleak robin]

Oh no no no. They're much much worse

[elfin thistle]

Can you make a phone the size of a tv?

[bleak robin]

I have yet to use a smart TV that I don't absolutely hate. I would take a Kindle Fire from 13 years ago over any of the modern "smart" tvs

[limpid flicker]

I tolerate smart TVs but prefer using a monitor.

[lunar panther]

I did it. Just do it. 👍

[bleak robin]

Yes, but you'd run into screen size issues

[elfin thistle]

Elaborate

[merry palm]

this just makes me feel like you hate tvs

bc kindle fires suck so bad

[finite depot]

Will it make issue for my ps5 which is another port hdmi

[limpid flicker]

Not that bad if you root them.

[merry palm]

if you have to change it. its not a kindle fire.

its something else in a kindle fire case

[bleak robin]

People forget that the bigger the tv and the higher the resolution, the more processing power you need to actually run all those pixels

[finite depot]

Anyways will do it thanks

[lunar panther]

It should not. Again, if you've already calibrated it though, just run through the wizard on Xbox. You might not even need to touch anything.

[limpid flicker]

Fair. In that terminology, as long as it is a Kindle Fire, it sucks.

[merry palm]

kindle fires are two things in one, and bad versions of both

[bleak robin]

Smart TV's suck in my experience. They're always slow, they have a bunch of connection issues with the internet, and come loaded with so many bloat apps/widgets/additions and ads that I cannot remove and it just makes my experience suffer

[queen lotus]

probably not, because most usb-a is 5W. the monitor might need more, that's why it's uses usb-c. but check the input.

[merry palm]

i have had several and tried so hard to love them lol

[elfin thistle]

I kind of want to try one of those folding phones

[merry palm]

ive never had a slow one, but i also dont mind fun widgets and things

[limpid flicker]

It's the remotes I hate. No thanks I don't want a button for the streaming service I never heard of and would never use.

[steady pilot]

It is interesting chart. But without price it’s not really useable

[elfin thistle]

Only streaming services I have are Netflix and Crunchyroll

[bleak robin]

When I say "slow" I mean the response time from the input I give. I will press a button and it will take 3-4 seconds for something to happen, so I assume it just ate my input

[lunar panther]

Totally - I assume they themselves are making an assumption on price

[merry palm]

oh. i do not have that problem at all

that would be annoying

[bleak robin]

Not to mention I can't even turn the tv fully off. It always goes into a "stand by" and I can't fully turn it off without unplugging it

[twin axle]

I have every streaming service. Sadly.

[bleak robin]

Every single smart tv I've used (and I've used a fair few from a LOT of different price points) has had massive input lag

[trail harness]

almost all of my money goes to rent

[elfin thistle]

Elaborate

[steady pilot]

Yah could be. It’s always fun when new hardware comes out.

[merry palm]

mine is a cheap thing from walmart..

[twin axle]

Netflix, Hulu, paramount, etc.

[limpid flicker]

Deek no you created an infinite loop at the end of the top branch! this is catastrophic!

[bleak robin]

My grandpa got a brand new TCL a few weeks back and I was using it last night cause I was hanging out with him and it was so slow to respond to anything

[merry palm]

so its not like im using something fancy 😂

[elfin thistle]

Netflix and Crunchyroll are really all i need. Noone else has stuff i wanna watch

[twin axle]

Yeah smart TVs have some bad input lag.

[limpid flicker]

Isn't that true of nearly every device now?

[elfin thistle]

My TV is an Amazon Fire TV and its just fine

[bleak robin]

My housemates have a large TV that was moderately expensive at the time and is only a few years old, and it consistently drops internet connection despite being relatively close to the router

[bleak robin]

Yes but most devices have an option to fully shut down if you so choose

[merry palm]

i just plug mine into somthing hardwired..

[idle spear]

I don’t use any internet features on my tv

[merry palm]

using wifi only is rarely a good plan on devices in your home, minus like.. a phone imho

[bleak robin]

Like if I could hold the power button down and it would fully shut off then I would be ok. But I can't. If I want it to completely shut off I have to unplug it

[twin axle]

I mean it’s not a deal breaker.

Just don’t need input lag in games.

[bleak robin]

It's funny cause none of the other devices in our house have any issues with the wifi. I used the same wifi on my computer (and farther away) and I have zero issues

[merry palm]

cords are my friends

[twin axle]

Or minimum as possible.

[lunar panther]

Whats the concern with standby?

[limpid flicker]

Don't get me wrong though, I rarely use the Smart TV we have, and I prefer my monitor. So we're definitely on the same page. The input lag is maddening, because if I assume it didn't register I will press it again, and then I can create a chain of bad input.

[stable talon]

Moving from PC to Xbox, whats the latest console out? What do i need to know?

[twin axle]

lol

[merry palm]

series s or series x

[twin axle]

I’m out.

[merry palm]

x is better

[twin axle]

Hilarious.

Stick with a PC.

[bleak robin]

Usually if I'm having issues with tech, turning it completely off and back on is a good way to refresh/reset the buffer/ram so if I'm having issues with something turning it off and on usually fixes it

[limpid flicker]

Xbox Series X. You don't need to know much, except that you can only play current gen games from the internal storage, or the expansion card. They can be stored on USB HDDs, but will not run from there because this gen demands NVMe speeds.

[bleak robin]

If my only option is unplugging the TV then that's a right pain. Our tv is relatively big and cumbersome, so getting to the power cable is a right nightmare

[twin axle]

Demand!

[stable talon]

can it be connected via wifi?

[barren whale]

Hi guys

[unreal isle]

Thought you was out?

[barren whale]

What why can I log out? I can’t log out on Fortnite mobile

[lunar panther]

Stick with whatever works for you and whatever you enjoy. 🙂

[barren whale]

When will they fix it?

[limpid flicker]

Absolutely it can. I would argue that's not the ideal way, but it can. 🙂

[bleak robin]

Mhmm. Almost every device nowadays has wifi compatibility

[barren whale]

They better give us V bucks

[twin axle]

Indeed. PC.

[barren whale]

I can’t log out on Fortnite

[twin axle]

good bye

[barren whale]

Bro, let me log out on Fortnite

I can’t log out

[merry palm]

you have said goodbye twice

[bleak robin]

Take it up with fortnite then

[barren whale]

Bro, I can’t log out

[merry palm]

do you need confirmation before leaving?

[barren whale]

They won’t let me

[stable talon]

only choice right now would be via wireless

[barren whale]

Can anyone change this account password, please?

[bleak robin]

Then you should talk to their support team. Ain't nothing anyone here can do to help you lol

[barren whale]

Like anyone

Can anyone change the password?

[bleak robin]

Nope lol

[barren whale]

It’s locked, but can anyone just change it? It’s a scammers account. It won’t let me log out.

[hardy basalt]

Old call of duty titles have an RCE exploit

[barren whale]

Bro, I’m stuck on his account

Can someone change it?

[bleak robin]

You don't need a password to log out

[merry palm]

^

[barren whale]

Please, for the love of God

[merry palm]

contact official support if needed

[barren whale]

I can’t

[merry palm]

no one here can help with account specific issues

you can

[barren whale]

Please can anyone

[merry palm]

stop

[barren whale]

And plus he also leaked in my IP please I wanna log out

[merry palm]

so to the website and get support there

[bleak robin]

Again, no one here can help you. You don't need a password to log out of an account and if you need support you should reach out to Fortnite's support service. You can also just delete the app and that should log you out

[barren whale]

It’s blocked

[limpid flicker]

OK well, it'll do. It might limit your speeds a bit, and your responsiveness in online games, but if that's your option, you're fine.

[barren whale]

Pls

[empty token]

has anyone played the bo7 campaign solo and if u have is it hard bc ive heard theres not checkpoints

[limpid flicker]

Listen. Nobody who isn't you can change your password. That's not how it works.

[twin axle]

https://tenor.com/view/sabrina-carpenter-please-please-please-gif-14749800524256388857

[limpid flicker]

Even support would tell you that you have to initiate a password reset, I bet.

[granite verge]

Tbh that looks cute and fun tho

[hallow flax]

Sup

[merry palm]

It's how I imagine them all, otherwise I'd be much meaner

[granite verge]

[limpid flicker]

There need to just be places I can go to pet a lot of cats.

[merry palm]

Cat cafes?

[lunar panther]

homie dont know about cat cafes

[merry palm]

Or a shelter for cats

[limpid flicker]

IDK if shelters encourage petting?

[merry palm]

They do

Especially kittens

[limpid flicker]

The poor homeless kitty might get attached though and then?

[merry palm]

Nah.

You have to socialize the babies

[limpid flicker]

OK then I'm going to look into THIS. It's shameful that I don't know. You wanna know how shameful?

[merry palm]

It's really common for shelters to want volunteers to help like that

Even with dogs

[limpid flicker]

I have a neighbour who works at a shelter. That's how shameful that I don't know.

If this is real, Imma be like "TAKE ME WITH YOU!!!"

[twin axle]

I call it something else when I’m playing in game.

[limpid flicker]

On this topic, I think my mum and dad have become owners of a timeshare in a cat.

[limber carbon]

Are pet cafes common in the UK? I thought it was less common there.

[limpid flicker]

He just strolls right in, hops up on my dad's lap and acts like he belongs there.

My dad started feeding him, and then eventually followed him to another house to say "Hey, your cat is spending a lot of time here, just so you know."

The owner is like "Yes, and 3 other houses."

[lunar panther]

At this point, I think you should have just said "brb" instead of "goodbye"

[limpid flicker]

The funny thing is, despite having a home, and four other houses that feed him, the cat in question is a bag of bones. How does he do it?

[lunar panther]

damn I had chance to say "homie dont know about 'brb'"

[merry palm]

sorry i didnt give you your shot

[limber carbon]

Tequila or vodka?

[merry palm]

tequila

[limber carbon]

We have Bacardi (cat's name) that wanders here often, but I don't feed him.

[merry palm]

i love a good tequila sunrise

[limber carbon]

He used to be much thinner

I drank one tequila in my life

Drinking is such a chore these days

Thank goodness for alcohol free beer

[limpid flicker]

The cat which visits my dad is called Miley. Which I'm like "The only time I ever heard that it was a girl's name, but you're valid."

[bleak robin]

I love me some straight tequila

[merry palm]

awww
thats a cute name

[summer magnet]

Love that name

[merry palm]

[merry palm]

[summer magnet]

https://tenor.com/view/get-it-thoughts-thinking-think-smart-be-wise-gif-17692731

[rustic stirrup]

but i got both

[merry palm]

xbox on pc has been pretty good to me

[rustic stirrup]

im buying the serie S since it’s been 6 years living with not even 60fps but id say 48/51fps

[merry palm]

series s is a pretty solid option imo

[rustic stirrup]

yeah they’re like the best match, sad Macbook cant have the xbox app to stream

[merry palm]

maybe someday

[rustic stirrup]

wanted an X but yk buying it with my own money be struggling since ages😂

[merry palm]

fr

i'm saving for an xbox ally rn

hoping to have enough money in the spring

[tulip lichen]

@merry palm

[rustic stirrup]

the serie s with 1TB could be good but with the price it got, better get the X

[tulip lichen]

Do you know why

[merry palm]

im not support,, meatwad

[rustic stirrup]

S is good for minimalism tbh

[merry palm]

kinda depends what you want, storage or performance.

[tulip lichen]

You’re a Xbox specialist

[merry palm]

i am def not

lol

i play pc

and again, i am not support

[spiral shore]

[rustic stirrup]

i barely play games

with that i would probably install 3 games

[merry palm]

i play a fair amount of games, but mostly indies so they are not very large sizes

[tulip lichen]

dang u don’t gotta Xbox?

[merry palm]

nope

[rustic stirrup]

destiny 2, apex and the third some nostalgia one like titanfall 2 or fallout

[tulip lichen]

You can’t play 360 games then

[merry palm]

some i can

[rustic stirrup]

not bad at all

[merry palm]

but i dont really care if i can or not

i can play enough games i like, and have a backlog longer than my age 😂

[tulip lichen]

U can still get bo7 for free on pc?

[merry palm]

why would i get anything free?

[rustic stirrup]

act pc xbox is way more cared than us console

[merry palm]

i have to pay for my stuff same as you lol

[tulip lichen]

I mean for gamepass

[merry palm]

yes

[tulip lichen]

So what’s the point of cod launcher

[merry palm]

how would i know?

i dont play them

[rustic stirrup]

cod got a launcher?

[merry palm]

not my jam

[crimson patio]

problem is no disc drive

[tulip lichen]

Yea

It’s on battle net

[rustic stirrup]

dw i love buying online soo it was a good era with disc

[limpid flicker]

I don't see the series S 1 TB in stock most places.

[crimson patio]

i play a decent number of 360 games that i already own on disc

[rustic stirrup]

only online markets

[merry palm]

i can get it online. might be regional?

[tulip lichen]

Wait can I ask rhinne if he knows

[merry palm]

you cant tag him

you can post it and hope he sees it , ig lol

[rustic stirrup]

im just getting the S one cuz of my future minimalist setup

[tulip lichen]

well he won’t respond anyways he ignored me like 6 times

[merry palm]

or ask in gamepass and hope someone else answers

[crimson patio]

yeah the series s is a great little console

[merry palm]

we arent support, so getting tagged by people hoping for that.. tends to make us annoyed tbh

[crimson patio]

i have one that i use just to play games at friends houses

[limpid flicker]

You know Rhinne's job isn't to answer every question we all ask?

[crimson patio]

i got it for a steal a couple years ago on black friday

[rustic stirrup]

what a magnificent taste sir💪

[tulip lichen]

Yea ig

[crimson patio]

i just wish it had a disc drive 😢

at least with the ps5 you can buy a disc drive separately

[rustic stirrup]

trust me it time to adapt with the future

[limpid flicker]

Series S would need to be bigger if if it had a disc drive.

[crimson patio]

digital games are a lot more expensive

[merry palm]

it would also be more expensive and at that point like.. get an x imho

[crimson patio]

i still buy a good number of preowned disc games

[rustic stirrup]

yeahhh… but instant gaming saves life

[merry palm]

i dont want to store games physically

[rustic stirrup]

tbh i just play few games

[crimson patio]

like i just bought elden ring on disc for $25 it’s still $60 on the xbox store

[rustic stirrup]

most of them are free

[merry palm]

and most of the games i play dont have physical editions, and if they get around to them.. are pricey

digital all the way for me

[rustic stirrup]

ngl microsoft store on xbox has dropped some decent deals

[limpid flicker]

Not always. If you wait for sales, digital games get pretty cheap sometimes.

[crimson patio]

right but if you have the disc console you can play both

[merry palm]

mmmm not always actually

[rustic stirrup]

like there was cyberpunk around 25€

[merry palm]

if i buy digital i can play it anywhere i can log in.

[limpid flicker]

Yes, that's the maximum versatility... I guess.

[merry palm]

if you buy the disc you dont get the digital version for free like that. you have to have the disc iirc

[rustic stirrup]

gotta be honest i always had problems with disc, since you could download them offline

[crimson patio]

i just buy whatever’s cheaper

usually that ends up being disc

[rustic stirrup]

usually online stuff are cheaper than physical store

[crimson patio]

gamepass is also very good fwiw if you’re still at the old price

[limpid flicker]

My partner and I "hotseat" the different gaming areas in our home, so discs are kind of a pain.

[rustic stirrup]

how much is it now?

[crimson patio]

$30 for new subscribers, $20 for existing

(for ultimate)

[merry palm]

uh

[rustic stirrup]

wooow

[limpid flicker]

Excuse me, why do you think existing subscribers get a different price?

[merry palm]

i dont think thats true

[rustic stirrup]

well

[merry palm]

yeah they dont

[spiral shore]

I am a existing sub and its 30

thank god i was here before

[merry palm]

everything has swapped over now afaik

and it depends on tier

[crimson patio]

[limpid flicker]

The only way it can be true is if you already paid in advance for a lot.

[rustic stirrup]

for me ultimate is 19,99€

essential is basically gamepass core or the gold one if anyone remember

[merry palm]

yes that weas last month and it was stated that people got a month for it to swap over

[crimson patio]

ah

[merry palm]

its a month to month thing

[crimson patio]

i bought a bunch of gift cards at the old price so i’m chilling

[merry palm]

unless you stacked ahead of time, the cost will be the new one now

[rustic stirrup]

instant gaming gives you 3 months for 25€

[merry palm]

unless you live in a country that by law requires more time than that*

[crimson patio]

i still think $30 is pretty worth it depending on how you play games

[rustic stirrup]

1 month*

[merry palm]

there are lower tiers too

not everyone needs or wants the highest one

[rustic stirrup]

too much not even netflix costs that much

[crimson patio]

gamepass is more worth it than netflix

[rustic stirrup]

yeah but the point was 30 it too much

[merry palm]

i know alot of peeps are going down to the miiddle one and not the top one

[queen lotus]

my netflix cost that much. I have the 4k plan plus the extra household.

[rustic stirrup]

for more than 400 games it’s great

[crimson patio]

also $10 of it is xbox live itself

[rustic stirrup]

who’s gonna play 400 games cmon

[merry palm]

and you still get some games to play.

[rustic stirrup]

2k better option

[merry palm]

but its not xbox live anymore

[limpid flicker]

When my existing sub runs out, I may yet go with the Premium plan, but I'll be kinda sad to be off Ultimate for the first time in years.

[rustic stirrup]

for the 4k only with disney and amazon

[crimson patio]

if you live in the us go to target/walmart and buy the gift cards at $20

they still have them in stock

[merry palm]

since i primarily play indies, i imagine i'll be happy enough with premium

[limpid flicker]

I don't, but I also know a retailer who has the old price, and I stocked up a bit. Thanks though, for trying to help.

[crimson patio]

i still think it’s ridiculous you have to pay to play online

[merry palm]

i stacked into like 2027 or something

[rustic stirrup]

yeah

[idle spear]

I changed mine down to essentials which was really just to play a few games online. I had a look at premium and it’s either games I already own or could get dirt cheap on a sale anyway.

[rustic stirrup]

especially for paid games

[merry palm]

it costs to have people online

[crimson patio]

why is PC online free then

[merry palm]

you can pick paying more for a game or for online

pc has other costs lol

[rustic stirrup]

pay for socializing

[rustic stirrup]

wifi i guess

[merry palm]

note that pc gamepass got nothing new and went way up in price

[limpid flicker]

The value proposition of having at least Premium is that rarely a month goes by without I discover a couple of indie games I would have overlooked.

[crimson patio]

premium is worth it if you play online anyways and need XBL

[merry palm]

yeah imo, it gives more variation in options having 3 tiers (plus pc gamepass)

its expensive tho for ultimate, thats pretty valid

[idle spear]

I’m just buying the games here on out or waiting for sales, ultimate wasn’t worth it at the price increase for me anymore.

[crimson patio]

i’ll subscribe to ultimate for a month to try a game and then cancel

like i’m very glad i did not shell out $70 for black ops 7

[limpid flicker]

Can't buy games you didn't know existed until they were in your Game Pass library...

[idle spear]

That’s not a bad way to use it

[merry palm]

its actually cheaper for me to get premium than pc game pass.

[crimson patio]

also ultimate gives you 20% off a game if you really do like it

[merry palm]

😂

[crimson patio]

i might buy oblivion before my sub runs out

[merry palm]

different perks but ugh. what a choice

👀 hm what a choice

day one games, or cloud..

choices

[idle spear]

For me personally only thing I used ultimate for was the day 1 Xbox studio games but that’s fair if you found value in it.

[crimson patio]

isn’t pc gamepass equivalent to ultimate

[limpid flicker]

I still don't understand "earn up to $50 a year", WTF?

[merry palm]

i really dont understand it

like actual confusion

[crimson patio]

you get day1 activision/blizzard/bethesda now too

[merry palm]

no

def not

[idle spear]

I’m aware

[small coyote]

I Think it means that u Save 50 dollars from games on gamepass???

[rustic stirrup]

it cuz you got gamepass mission

[merry palm]

pc game pass has much less things than ultimate

[rustic stirrup]

with microsoft rewards

[limpid flicker]

Yeah but then why is the amount different per tier?

[merry palm]

is it like.. just from having the tier

in rewards extra oppurtunities bc of the tier you have , maybe? idk

[rustic stirrup]

i dont know honestly, it all about the user if he farm or not for the tasks

[limpid flicker]

The confusion is real, they need to fix that.

[merry palm]

ik i cant do any console rewards things, bc i dont have one

its always bugged me tbh

😂

[limpid flicker]

If you lived closer I'd send you a spare Xbox One.

[merry palm]

literally on my pc app

whyyyyyy

[limpid flicker]

I've got literally three Xbox Ones (one original, two S) that I don't even use.

[merry palm]

i just would not use it, unfortunately

[limpid flicker]

Not even for rewards? 😛

[merry palm]

nah lol

wish they would let cloud count towards it though

[clear jay]

Wow i made a joke and my message deleted

[merry palm]

yeaaah that happens sometimes

[crimson patio]

how did you end up with three lol

[merry palm]

bot is protective

[clear jay]

Bot doesn't like the n*rd emoji

[spiral shore]

i have 3 xbox lol one launch vcr one a one x and my series x lol

[limpid flicker]

I replaced my original with a One S, then we got another One S for my partner. We both have Xbox Series now.

All those consoles are still gathering dust.

I mean. Except the Series.

[crimson patio]

my PS5 is collecting dust ngl

[spiral shore]

my one x get used still and the older xbox one for streaming lol

I use my ps5 a bit also

[jade wagon]

My one x is my streaming device now

[crimson patio]

i just don’t want to pay for ps+ and gamepass lol

[idle spear]

I use One X and PS4 sometimes in another room.

[limpid flicker]

Should take these things down to a store and trade them all in

[spiral shore]

you dont need need to have them just buy the gamers lol

[crimson patio]

you need it to play online

[spiral shore]

well then there is a cheap 9.99 one that works

[jade wagon]

Im probably going to give them away, I travel too much to really use any of my consoles

[crimson patio]

i use the ally a lot, it’s a great bit of kit for traveling

[jade wagon]

I got the ally as a gift and haven’t even used it once, my gf has tho maybe I should try it
