battlefield-2042

[tribal wyvern]

no

[arctic grove]

Bugs/launch issues

[tribal wyvern]

early access

[royal trail]

i dont doubt dice, the game will most likely be amazing but i want to know if my computer can run the game, thats why im waiting for beta to preorder gold edition

[arctic grove]

Yeah, but you have to deal with bugs/launch issues, I don't care about getting a game early if it won't be fixed

[tribal wyvern]

i'm a veteran tester

[shy rapids]

I doubt that... especially when their production cost isn't even as high as movies

[tribal wyvern]

i've tested buggy shit before

[lavish shadow]

tru tru

[tribal wyvern]

i'm cool with the bugs and launch issues

[storm sentinel]

I think we all know that DICE will learn a lot from Respawn Entertainment

[tribal wyvern]

not of battlefield

other games

[lavish shadow]

oh i meant for some really large scale AAA games

[tribal wyvern]

but like i'm ok with bugs

[shy rapids]

Better have good battlepasses though

[worldly star]

i only wanted early access to get a head start on grinding

[lavish shadow]

i beta tested minecraft in 2001

[storm sentinel]

yup thts the one thing we need tht

[lavish shadow]

ps i was born in 2002 shit i gave away my age fuck im a squeadkerieorhjaoi

[tribal wyvern]

i alpha tested back 4 blood and valorant

and i beta tested population one

[lavish shadow]

where do u live

NA?

[tribal wyvern]

which is actually reovlutionary cuz ito pens up the possibility of a vr bf

[naive trellis]

I want Back 4 Blood, real bad.

[arctic grove]

how is back 4 blood

[lavish shadow]

how do y'all get so many tests ;-;

[tribal wyvern]

unoptimized

[shy rapids]

Well yeah, then that would be games like GTA or (Destiny?) which costed like $250mill-$500mill

[tribal wyvern]

the fps drops were insane

[lavish shadow]

all i get is tests for some asian 2 man indie game

[tribal wyvern]

settings were barely tweakable

[arctic grove]

you have a really old cpu

thats a given

[tribal wyvern]

difficulty was dark souls level

[tribal wyvern]

yes but i wasn't the only one with that issue lmao

the gameplay was very hard

like REALLY hard

[naive trellis]

YES, PERFECT.

[tribal wyvern]

dark souls level

[slim quiver]

It’s pretty fun

[tribal wyvern]

i enjoyed it!

[arctic grove]

Good, thats great that way

[tribal wyvern]

but the presence of only one level was dissapointing

however

[shy rapids]

You've played it already?

[lavish shadow]

isnt it like left5dead

[shy rapids]

I only have WWZ lol

[tribal wyvern]

the difficulty being dark souls level did make the last part of the campaign better

know why?

[slim quiver]

Friend got into alpha

[arctic grove]

left 4 dead

[tribal wyvern]

only way to beat that is if someone sacrificed themselves

[shy rapids]

No, L3D

[lavish shadow]

yeye i said 5 cuz like

sequel

left tree dead

[tribal wyvern]

at the last part there'd be no time to get back to the escape part without running into a million zombies

[slim quiver]

It’s pretty fun, but I don’t feel the soul of L4D

[arctic grove]

It would be left 4 dead 3, as there is already left for dead 2

[royal trail]

wont back 4 blood release 2 days prior to early access bf2042?

[tribal wyvern]

so it'd be a sacrifice

[tribal wyvern]

yes

[shy rapids]

Valve just makes me upset, they really went "Back for blood" instead of them making a L4D 3... they're evil

[arctic grove]

Yep on gamepass

[royal trail]

damn

[tribal wyvern]

i love october

[lavish shadow]

l4d = left for dead
l2d = left to die
its all coming together

[slim quiver]

World war Z I loved for a really long time. I still think that game is a lot of fun

[tribal wyvern]

not only is it my bday

but all the good games release that month

[arctic grove]

Oh yeah, its all coming together

[naive trellis]

October is going to be fun

[lavish shadow]

oh yeah i forgot lmfao

[shy rapids]

Which month?

[lavish shadow]

XDD

[tribal wyvern]

october

[naive trellis]

Also, I need Dying Light 2, now

[arctic grove]

i got it for free, very fun

[shy rapids]

What day?

[arctic grove]

Same

[tribal wyvern]

11th

october 11th

[slim quiver]

Did someone say dying light

[tribal wyvern]

4 days before early access bf 2042

[shy rapids]

That is indeed my birthday

[arctic grove]

Yep

[lavish shadow]

i feel like dl2 will be that 'not so overmarketed' proper game

[tribal wyvern]

WOAH

[naive trellis]

I build a whole damn pc for it haha

[tribal wyvern]

what year tho?

[naive trellis]

That, and vr.

[shy rapids]

2003

[tribal wyvern]

aw i'm 2006

you're 3 years older

[lavish shadow]

hype is there but its not overhype, its just a bunch of patient fuckers waiting for the game 😂

[shy rapids]

Lol well still same day

Didn't expect that though

[storm sentinel]

ah gold

[tribal wyvern]

back 4 blood was tested unexpectedly early

[glacial pecan]

Yessir

[tribal wyvern]

december 2020 yet it releases october 2021

[lavish shadow]

whens it coming out tho

[shy rapids]

But yes, only one good game that I know which may be BF 2042, but what other games are coming in Oct?

[lavish shadow]

oh shit

i mean i think testing should be done earlier for multiplayer games

[arctic grove]

i hope BF 2042 will have good visibility, BFV visibility was pretty bad, i see that pattern in a lot of modern games that they have bad visibility, the newest cods for example

[lavish shadow]

so they can flesh it out

[tribal wyvern]

far cyr 6, back 4 blood, cod (jk it's not a good game)

dying light 2

look it up man

[lavish shadow]

like imagine testing 2 months before release, that would make devs stressed out

[tribal wyvern]

lots of triple a games

[lavish shadow]

crunch time

[arctic grove]

Forza Horizon 5

[royal trail]

farcry 6 also release in october

c'mon

i have to buy 3 games that month

[naive trellis]

Hope Crane shows up in DL2

[lavish shadow]

farcry is not giving me the g spot vibes anymore ;-;;

[glacial pecan]

A lot of games are comming out in October

[arctic grove]

Get it on ubisoft+

[slim quiver]

I never understood this visibility problem in BFV. I never saw an issue but apparently there is

[slim quiver]

That would be so unreal

[lavish shadow]

ubisoft only knows now how to make badass trailers that will never look like the actual game

[arctic grove]

its not very good

[tribal wyvern]

do you play at higher than 1080p?

[arctic grove]

tbh

[slim quiver]

Yea

[tribal wyvern]

that's why

[naive trellis]

He's undead anyways

[tribal wyvern]

the anti aliasing is super bad

[arctic grove]

1080p visibility is abysmal

[tribal wyvern]

in 1080p it's so blurry

[lavish shadow]

play on devastation and marita 😂

[tribal wyvern]

anything higher than 1080p it looks fine

[lavish shadow]

i play 1080p with 125% res

[arctic grove]

I play at 1080p and I have no issues

[slim quiver]

Yeah I mean I could see him being like a throwback cameo character

[tribal wyvern]

considering 1080p's the standard it's pretty fucking stupid

[lavish shadow]

its not about the resolution, its about the colors

[slim quiver]

Oh that’s why

[tribal wyvern]

either raise the res scale or manually turn it off in config

[lavish shadow]

and contrast

resolution = 8k
res scale = 25%

[shy rapids]

Ah yes... Far Cry 6, I hope it's good, didn't care about FC5 even though that was pretty good, Dying light is good but I have no care for it and so on... Back 4 blood seems cool but I have WWZ which I kind of regret buying...

[slim quiver]

You know what game we really need

Sleeping Dogs 2

[arctic grove]

YESSSSS

[lavish shadow]

watch doge 4?

[slim quiver]

One of the most underrated titles

[shy rapids]

If only our eyes can see all resolutions higher then 8k and beyond

[storm sentinel]

GTA 6 2025 to the future

[naive trellis]

Idk if that one will happen, sadly.

[lavish shadow]

can we lol?

[naive trellis]

But the game was lots of fun

[arctic grove]

The company that made it doesn't exist anymore so probably not

[tribal wyvern]

far cry 6 will be good

[lavish shadow]

i mean depends on the screen size

[tribal wyvern]

not sure if you saw the season pass trailer

but jason, vaas, pagan min and joseph seed are back

[royal trail]

i tend to take months to play through singleplayer games, i would end up paying way more if i got several months of ubiplus instead of just buying the game. but thanks for the tip

[tribal wyvern]

and you PLAY as them

[slim quiver]

Yeah I lost hope for it. Especially since the movie has 0 news of any updates

[lavish shadow]

game graphics looks meh so i wont buy it

[arctic grove]

Far cry 6 just looks like far cry 5 but better, ubisoft+ for me

partnered server

[tribal wyvern]

sorry but i gotta not spend any of my allowance till xmas for my pc components

[storm sentinel]

and still beta testing

[arctic grove]

i dont think you can talk about piracy here

[lavish shadow]

shh pirate we must not spill out secrtets lik tthat

[naive trellis]

....

[tribal wyvern]

fuck lemme delete that

Y'ALL SAW NOTHIN

[lavish shadow]

lol

[arctic grove]

its a partnered server

[arctic grove]

Or just get it on ubisoft+

[lavish shadow]

ofc ofc

[slim quiver]

Probably shouldn’t talk about crackin games lol

[lavish shadow]

u said you'll buy fc6?

ah yes me too :3

[tribal wyvern]

ye i will

put all my money into the deluxe edition

😉

[arctic grove]

what level do you get regular at? if its even a level

[lavish shadow]

hmmm same same, ima buy it straight from epic games

[arctic grove]

i dont get the epic games store hate

lol

[tribal wyvern]

maybe from stadia

[arctic grove]

Its just worse in every way

[tribal wyvern]

tehy steal data from you

[arctic grove]

Every company does that

[arctic grove]

everything steals data from you

[lavish shadow]

i dont mind it, i gotta use it everyday for UE4 dev ;-;

but its only a launcher, not a community based launcher like steam

[slim quiver]

It’s not a level, it’s a role you can receive for being helpful and a active user in the community. Helping other community members and just being a part of supporting the battlefield community in general

[arctic grove]

eh idc tbh, and they get a bigger cut

[arctic grove]

oh, that makes sense

[lavish shadow]

its just that launchers like steam make me feel more full with community and reviews and discussions and shit like that

[naive trellis]

The phone in your pocket does that 20 times better.

[lavish shadow]

epic games is just like:
buy
buy
buy

nothing community related so i dont use it as much

[arctic grove]

Eh no cart, no controller support, worse store overall, no big picture, etc

[tribal wyvern]

nope

removed it all

removed all the bloat

hehehe don't underestimate hte power of adb

[naive trellis]

You'd think that, huh?

[arctic grove]

my theory is that since they appealed to younger children with fortnite and these free games, in a few years, when they get more serious about gaming, their library is in epic games, not steam, moving more of the younger generation to epic games, thats why they dont really care about improving their launcher at the moment, theyre trying to secure free games

[storm sentinel]

Steam Deck BF 2042 its gonna run only for 16playerlmao

[lavish shadow]

everything thats connected to the internet steals ur data lmfao

[tribal wyvern]

yes cuz i did it manually

[lavish shadow]

i honestly forgot about it

[tribal wyvern]

i used adb to manually remove bloatware

[lavish shadow]

im like "oh u want my data? fuck it take it "

[arctic grove]

Its more powerful than some peoples pcs

[lavish shadow]

"shut up and take my data"

[arctic grove]

i mean the phone companies and the OS maker still have your data

[tribal wyvern]

it's literally powerful enough to do ray tracing

[arctic grove]

so it doesnt matter

[tribal wyvern]

it'll run for sure

[arctic grove]

there is no privacy in 2021

[naive trellis]

So you're not running google services?

[arctic grove]

unless you live in a rock

[storm sentinel]

they said same like PS4pro?

[tribal wyvern]

oh ya cuaght me on that

[lavish shadow]

imo stressing about ur privacy in 2021 is just a waste of time

[arctic grove]

^

[lavish shadow]

cuz ur privacy will never be secure

[arctic grove]

Use discord?

its all gone anyway

[royal trail]

just get a vpn and u dont have to worry about people stealing your stuff

[lavish shadow]

ikr

[viscid bone]

Steam Deck is indeed OP.

[lavish shadow]

as long as ur connected to the internet

[tribal wyvern]

WAIT HOLD ON

[lavish shadow]

ur fucked

[naive trellis]

Yeah, so it's like you removed nothing haha

[tribal wyvern]

THIS IS A RARE OCCURENCE

[lavish shadow]

steam dick

[arctic grove]

That doesn't help, that just changes your ip, companies can still track your data

[naive trellis]

Got your preorder in yet?

[tribal wyvern]

bruh i'm lmao

[arctic grove]

i need a new phone. ive been hanging on to my iphone 7 for a while, might grab a 12

[storm sentinel]

better 100% then Nitendo Switch Pro

[lavish shadow]

my muscle memory always ends up typing dick instead of deck

;-;

[arctic grove]

there is no nintendo switch pro

[tribal wyvern]

ye

there's a switch oled tho

[storm sentinel]

if

[arctic grove]

my theory is that nintendo planned for it but they couldnt secure enough tegra chips

[tribal wyvern]

double the price for an ethernet port and oled screen!

buy now

lmao

[arctic grove]

so they just went oled

lol

[slim quiver]

50 dollars more for a screen btw

[arctic grove]

Which doesn't matter because it still is only 720p and the performance is horrible

[storm sentinel]

tht so stupid

[tribal wyvern]

ye

[arctic grove]

i mean

[tribal wyvern]

it's why it's a massive meme

[arctic grove]

dont buy the oled version if you dont want to

[slim quiver]

Oh I don’t plan on it tbh

[arctic grove]

i just think that they were planning for a pro but couldnt secure enough tegra chips

[lament eagle]

Steam deck 4 years newer and only 80p higher res

[slim quiver]

Nintendo still hasn’t really released any games I’m into besides astral chain

[arctic grove]

so they just went fuck it and are releasing an oled version

[lavish shadow]

i wanna pre order bf4

[storm sentinel]

$499 Steam Deck yummy man

[lavish shadow]

but its already released ;-;

isnt it $400

starting

[slim quiver]

The steam deck is yes

[arctic grove]

64gb model

[storm sentinel]

on my country

[slim quiver]

But 400 for what it is, is actually a bargain

[lavish shadow]

i mean tho some games it can play are literally more than 64gb kek

[lament eagle]

I want a 144hz OLED 32”

[arctic grove]

one thing that slightly annoys me is how warzone optimization gets worse every update

[lavish shadow]

so little

its like a phone

[arctic grove]

its infuriating

[naive trellis]

I reserved the 512GB one

[slim quiver]

Same Wilde

[lavish shadow]

yeah i forgot about that game when it hit >90gb

[storm sentinel]

its also PC

[arctic grove]

on my old system i went from 130 frames on average on ultra when it released to barely hitting 70 on ultra a few months ago

[slim quiver]

I was lucky to be able to reserve the first day

[arctic grove]

lol

[naive trellis]

I mean, I'll take the deck to some trips

[lavish shadow]

yeah lmfao

so windows 10 will take up ~12gb reserve

[slim quiver]

It finally paid off to have a 16 year old steam account

[naive trellis]

Where carrying a desktop with me isn't feasible

[lavish shadow]

itll be fun

[arctic grove]

its not windows

[naive trellis]

What? There are benefits for old accounts?

[lavish shadow]

its not?

oh mb

its steamOS?

[arctic grove]

Yes

[slim quiver]

Yes

[arctic grove]

i dont get people that bring around portable pcs, like they have mini itx cases and they bring a monitor and mouse and keyboard around

[lavish shadow]

good

[naive trellis]

It can run Windows.

[lavish shadow]

no bloatware

[arctic grove]

its super inconvenient

[arctic grove]

Not confirmed

like just get a laptop lol

[lavish shadow]

i meannnnn

if u wanna play just games

[naive trellis]

They...did?

With IGN?

[arctic grove]

Its running steam os

[lavish shadow]

get a gpd win

lol

[arctic grove]

On the ign vid it was running a linux based os

[viscid bone]

The temptation is quite high to do it like, the amount of possibilities with it is quite insane. 👀 peeled with this one. Hopefully this attempt lands true for them.

[naive trellis]

It natively runs SteamOS, and the engineers confirmed that it CAN run Win, but not that it natively does that

[viscid bone]

Ability to wipe SteamOS and completely install windows is mental.

[lavish shadow]

i maean id love to play some rocket league or valheim on my stream deck while laying on my sofa or like idk on the airport?

[slim quiver]

Not everyone could reserve that steam deck. Newer accounts were locked out of doing it. @naive trellis for instance my steam alt could not do it. But my main account could. For reference my alt steam account is 13 years old

[lavish shadow]

it be so fun

[arctic grove]

wonder how the amd driver support would be for windows with the hardware in the steam deck

[naive trellis]

Go for the 512GB one, better safe than sorry with that storage

[arctic grove]

wait how old does it have to be?

[slim quiver]

My guess is 15 years. But tomorrow another reserve is opening up for newer accounts

[lavish shadow]

probs 3 years?

[arctic grove]

Wow 15?

[naive trellis]

Huh, my 13 years old account could reserve it

[slim quiver]

That’s when it said my 13 year old alt could reserve it

[naive trellis]

But I just bought an Index

[slim quiver]

That’s strange. Mine simply could not.

[arctic grove]

That's just a glitch most likely

[naive trellis]

So maybe that boosted some trust factor

[lavish shadow]

yeah fuck the amount of years
This item is not available for reservation in your country

:-;

[arctic grove]

could you send a link? i want to see if i can reserve one

[tribal wyvern]

setting all the saturdays up till xmas on my phone's calendar to notify me at 11 am that on that day i'm supposed to be getting my 10 bucks allowance

[lavish shadow]

https://store.steampowered.com/steamdeck

[viscid bone]

Wow, that's a thing?!

[storm sentinel]

did u guys alrdy PO Steam Deck?

[slim quiver]

Yup! I was able to do it on my main

[naive trellis]

I'd rather have as much fast ssd storage as possible

[lavish shadow]

valve knew about dem scalpers

[slim quiver]

My apologies Wilde. My alt turns 13 this year in September. It is only 12 rn

[lavish shadow]

i like the veteran steam implementation

[naive trellis]

I only reserved mine, will buy it as soon as possible.

[tidal hare]

is there any advantages to preorder the steam deck tho

[tribal wyvern]

OH MY GOD

[storm sentinel]

oh Noice

[tribal wyvern]

I JUST FOUND OUT THE CPU IWAS RECOMMENDED RUNS AT 120 FPS ON COMPANY OF HEROES 2

[viscid bone]

The world: We're currently going through a chip shortage.
Valve: HAHAHAHA NEW MOBILE GAMING POWERHOUSE ON ITS WAY

[tribal wyvern]

WHICH IS THE GAME MY BROTHER STREAMS

[naive trellis]

If the ssd is gen 4, maybe?

[tribal wyvern]

oh he's gonna flip his shit when he finds out that's what i'm planning

[slim quiver]

But the whole reservation idea for older accounts was absolutely tailored to older users first and then will go in down the line to newer accounts

[naive trellis]

Valve chip shipment goes BRRRRRRRR

[arctic grove]

i can reserve one now i think

i have like a what

5 year old account

?

[slim quiver]

You can reserve one now?

[arctic grove]

its letting me go through with payment

[slim quiver]

It’s possible it opened early? I’m not sure wow

That’s good though

But yesterday that’s the message it gave my alt

I had to use my main

[arctic grove]

when did it give you that message?

during payment

?

[slim quiver]

Nah when I tried to reserve

It said it right on the bottom page

[arctic grove]

i think my trust factor is just super high

looool

[viscid bone]

Right, back to destiny. Enjoy your weekend folks!

[slim quiver]

My main account has a vac ban

[arctic grove]

No wait my account isnt even 4 years old

its letting me reserve one

[naive trellis]

Happy grinding there

[slim quiver]

Idk if the trust factor is as big on my main

I haven’t purchased a game on my main since 2008

[viscid bone]

Been trying to get a medal needed for a triumph for the past two days, because its hard solo. No big deal. 😐 😐

[arctic grove]

How do you even get a VAC ban

lol

[naive trellis]

I think there is a "shop" trust factor

[slim quiver]

I glitched scripted in TF2

[arctic grove]

How does that work?

[arctic grove]

oh lol

[naive trellis]

I'd help but I think I'm at 1050 light level

[slim quiver]

That’s weird because I shop a lot on steam as well as made a lot of cash over the community market

[royal trail]

my brother let his friend play CSGO on his steam account and the dude went staight out hacking. so he got vac banned

[arctic grove]

i wish game pass for pc ea play would work with steam

ea desktop isnt the greatest launcher imo

[naive trellis]

Then I'm dead wrong lol

[tidal hare]

what chat is this lol

[tribal wyvern]

what is this blasphemy?!

[tidal hare]

destiny, cs, steam deck and whatever

[tribal wyvern]

it's better than origin

[arctic grove]

origin at least functions 95% of the time

with ea desktop its a 50/50

[tidal hare]

for me it is always 50/50 with origin

[slim quiver]

Honestly my steam points is embarrassing at this point

[tidal hare]

why not spend them

[slim quiver]

I do but I don’t know what to buy

[storm sentinel]

send me a gift

[slim quiver]

I usually just buy those profile things for 1 month

[tidal hare]

animated profile pic and stuff obviously

[naive trellis]

I had 450k at most if I remember well

[arctic grove]

ive bought a total of 3 games on steam, spending a total of 23 dollars

let me write out the games ive been gifted

[slim quiver]

Damn Wilde you’re like me haha

Idk how many games I have let me check

[tribal wyvern]

i still can't get over the fact i'm getting a full pc upgrade this xmas

[tidal hare]

the original collection looks very good

[tribal wyvern]

10 years of this cpu

and ram

[spare skiff]

MG4 underrated

[naive trellis]

I'm sitting at around 325

[royal trail]

wow

[tidal hare]

hope you are getting correctly priced components

instead of the scalpler shit

[royal trail]

i only have about 100 games on steam , and i thought that was much

[tidal hare]

that is tiny compared to some of my friends

[arctic grove]

Blackwake, Fall Guys, Five Nights at Freddy's 2, GTA V, Left 4 Dead 2, Song of Horror, Terraria, titanfall 2, R6S have all been gifted to me via my friends

[tribal wyvern]

spent an hour talking with people here

[tidal hare]

I only have around 120 too

[arctic grove]

i literally dont spend money on games

[tribal wyvern]

426 euros of components

[arctic grove]

lol

[tidal hare]

sounds not too bad

[tribal wyvern]

16 gb of ddr4 speed is 3200 mhz

mobo is 90 euros

with secureboot and tpm support

[slim quiver]

I’m at 625 haha

[tribal wyvern]

bronze psu with 3 year warranty

[slim quiver]

Oh no

[tribal wyvern]

i5-10400f

[naive trellis]

Aight so, 212 paid games, my bad

[tribal wyvern]

with hyper 212 as cooler

[naive trellis]

I counted all od them

[slim quiver]

Though to be fair ive been gifted a lot of games over the years

[tidal hare]

i personally bought gold psu

[slim quiver]

Wait can I look at the gifted stuff

[tidal hare]

because just for the piece of mind

[arctic grove]

gold doesnt mean its good

[tidal hare]

yeah

[arctic grove]

bronze doesnt mean its good

[royal trail]

yeah a cheap gold could be bad

[arctic grove]

brand doesnt mean its good

[royal trail]

look up some tier list

[arctic grove]

for example evga makes some good psus and some pretty shit ones lol

[tidal hare]

Gotta buy the good shit

[arctic grove]

or rather

not even makes

sells

[tidal hare]

I used the antec one i think

[arctic grove]

they just rebrand everything

lol

[tidal hare]

or whatever it is called

[arctic grove]

theyve been working with Andyson and HEC mainly

they used to work with superflower a lot but they dont now

which is a big reason theyre not as good anymore

[tidal hare]

i bought the Antec half modular 650w

[arctic grove]

thats a brand not a model

[tidal hare]

i forgot the model number lol

[storm sentinel]

Ryzen 7 5800x
RTX 3070 Ti
Ram 32 3600mhz
PSU 850W

[tribal wyvern]

overkill

32 gb of ram?

[arctic grove]

overkill for what

[tribal wyvern]

850 watts?

[tidal hare]

i think it is the EAG PRO 650w

[tribal wyvern]

bruh that's so overkill

[arctic grove]

you dont know what they use their pc for

lol

[arctic grove]

very good psu

[tribal wyvern]

i assume for gaming

[arctic grove]

seasonic focus platform

[tribal wyvern]

@storm sentinelwhatchu use your pc for?

[storm sentinel]

y

[tidal hare]

paid about ~80-90 usd for it i think

idk about the exchange rate rn

or at the time

[naive trellis]

I use a Gigabyte P750GM

[storm sentinel]

Playing and rendering

[naive trellis]

Great little PSU, doesn't dissapoint

[arctic grove]

uh oh

Wilde i would replace that

[tidal hare]

I kinda wanna switch from 3600x to 3900/3950x with a cpu cooler upgrade

[tribal wyvern]

oh ok

[arctic grove]

its been known for the mosfets literally exploding

its failure rate is super high

[naive trellis]

I've stressed it in every way

And it held up

[arctic grove]

yeah but that doesnt exactly mean it wont fail down the line

[slim quiver]

I think mine is uhhh 1000w Corsair RMX

[naive trellis]

Eh, maybe when I get a Rog Helios case, then go for a ROG themed psu

[arctic grove]

im guessing the power supply came with your gpu?

[arctic grove]

i would honestly replace it now, its one of the lowest rated power supplies on the tier list, and the reviews arent flattering at all, theyre pretty bad actually

https://www.techpowerup.com/review/gigabyte-gp-p750gm-750-w/

i would read this

it went through professional testing

my friend had one, and it failed and took his 3070 alongside it

i dont even know how its allowed to be sold

[storm sentinel]

gonna be good for 850W trust me with full RGB

[naive trellis]

Hm, too late to return it now though

[arctic grove]

i would just sell it second hand or something lol

i wouldnt trust it at all with high end parts

[naive trellis]

Sure, why not then, I'll throw some cash at a Thor one, or whatever the ROG branding for it was

[arctic grove]

any reason youre going ROG other than the branding? its a top tier psu but they tend to be very overpriced lol

[naive trellis]

I love the looks

[storm sentinel]

MSI much better price point

[arctic grove]

do you have a psu shroud that covers it? if its covered you cannot see it anyway

[naive trellis]

Shame I didn't get an Asus GPU

[arctic grove]

honestly, asus took a massive W with ampere

they have some of the best models

[naive trellis]

I do, but the Helios case has a hole in the shroud

Especially for the Thor PSU

[arctic grove]

even their 'cheap' line the tuf line, is one of the top lines in terms of ampere

[tidal hare]

ugh

[arctic grove]

its very nice coming from rdna and turing where their tuf line was

meh

[tidal hare]

looking at the scalpler pricing

[naive trellis]

Eh, I currently have a X Trio 3070, does it's job so far

[tidal hare]

i probs have to wait for rtx 4k to upgrade

[arctic grove]

any 3070 is great

as long as you didnt overpay

thats a win

[tidal hare]

how much is cpu inflated btw?

[arctic grove]

none

[naive trellis]

100 over msrp

[arctic grove]

CPU?

oh

your gpu

[naive trellis]

I knew it would get bad

[storm sentinel]

MSI GeForce RTX 3070 Ti SUPRIM X 8GB

[arctic grove]

wait 100 over current msrp or before raised prices

[naive trellis]

Before raises

[arctic grove]

oh so thats around 650?

thats pretty good

i got my 6700XT for msrp

[naive trellis]

Yeah, around that price point

Currently waiting on a drop for 3090 prices

[arctic grove]

you can go for it, but iirc availability for the thor isnt very good

[naive trellis]

The market is flooded with them here

[arctic grove]

here?

as in US

or

[naive trellis]

EU

[arctic grove]

ah

makes sense

id go for it if you dont overpay too much

do you like that oled panel?

[naive trellis]

I kinda like the gimmick of it

[arctic grove]

it seems cool, i personally wouldnt spend more on it because im broke as fuck, student life is hard lol, but its your money, im just here to tell you whether its good or not

[royal trail]

so the rumors about a switch pro with better hardware that allowed for 4k gaming was false?

who knew

lol

[arctic grove]

my theory is that they were going to come out with a switch pro but they couldnt secure enough Tegra chips

[naive trellis]

When I started working I used to eat a noodle pack over 3 days

And pickles with mustard

[arctic grove]

pickles with mustard????

[naive trellis]

It was either that, or nothing haha

Student life.

[arctic grove]

i live in NYC, so i can always secure something nice and cheap

[tidal hare]

what

noodles with pickes?

[royal trail]

noodles are way more expensive than pasta here and its all empty calories. id go for spaghetti with something instead

[tidal hare]

pickles?

what is this cursed combo

[arctic grove]

no not just noodles

like cuppa noodles

[naive trellis]

The hunger menu

[tidal hare]

Still cursed

[arctic grove]

instant ramen

and the lot

[tidal hare]

As a Chinese I am...

slightly confused

[arctic grove]

pickles are super overhated imo

[storm sentinel]

i mean u can eat bread

[naive trellis]

It's all I could afford back then

[tidal hare]

why not just buy a massive pack of noodles and cookem youself

[arctic grove]

where would you store em

[storm sentinel]

with egg

[tidal hare]

they come with a bag

[naive trellis]

They're not as commonly found here

[tidal hare]

a bag pack of noodles

ight makes sense

[arctic grove]

ah those

[naive trellis]

And they're crazy expensive.

[tidal hare]

damn thats a shame

[royal trail]

isnt sweet potatoes kinda cheap aswell, and they're awesome

[arctic grove]

instant ramen is a students best friend

[naive trellis]

Because they're imported

[arctic grove]

especially here in NYC everything is so fucking expensive

[tidal hare]

EEEEEEE i have to learn how to make noodles now

thinking back

maybe not

[storm sentinel]

try Indomie brand was so popular on my country

[tidal hare]

take up too much space

[arctic grove]

im not quite in college yet, but i have to start saving, because i dont want my parents to provide too much for me, i buy everything that i need aside from (most) food myself

[tidal hare]

just for the items needed

[arctic grove]

ill be there soon

[tidal hare]

same

gr12

[naive trellis]

Good luck, the common area showers will change you

Been there.

[tidal hare]

no worries

[arctic grove]

in college?

[tidal hare]

i already experienced common area showers

back in middleschool back in china

[naive trellis]

Yeah, aren't dorms a thing over in your country?

[arctic grove]

depending on where i go to, ill probably just commute to school and live with my parents, but on the chance i have to dorm, you share a room with someone and you get your own bathroom to share with them

[tidal hare]

kinda arkward but people mind their own business

but there is always one guy that stare at peoples dick for no reason

[arctic grove]

there arent common area showers for the colleges/universities around here

[naive trellis]

We had broken locks

[tidal hare]

oh

now thats kinda bad

[storm sentinel]

https://tenor.com/view/resep-indomie-masak-makanan-noodles-gif-10506181

[naive trellis]

Yeah, it was horrible, but funny at the same time

[tidal hare]

tbh as long as my future roommates can accept I make pickles in room

it might be all fine

[naive trellis]

Imagine living with 3 other guys in a single room

And I had the bed that was "upstairs"

[arctic grove]

i think for the schools im looking at, you share a room with 1-2 other people

Just coped nooo

[naive trellis]

Had to climb on a heater to get in it lmao

[arctic grove]

thats tough

[storm sentinel]

ok guys ima gonna go sleep 4.32am now

[tidal hare]

you get used to it lol

yeah, that time in people's lives can be really tough, i envy those that have to go through college and ONLY worry about school, no jobs or whatnot

🤣

[tidal hare]

living with 3 others arent too bad

if you sort of know each other

[naive trellis]

I mean, my allowance was 10$/month

[arctic grove]

im aiming for scholarships though, hopefully i can pull it off

[royal trail]

i mostly play on a russian server in bf4 since its one of few ive found that accepts vpns so i mostly have no clue what everyone is chatting about

😦

[tidal hare]

and have the concept of personal space

if you have one guy that is a dick then everyones time is ruined

[naive trellis]

One of them used to wait for me to get back from work and fall asleep

[arctic grove]

if i dorm, i hope i get responsible kids, that do their laundry, know basic hygiene, do the dishes, stay clean

[tidal hare]

"hope"

[arctic grove]

i hope

[naive trellis]

Then he'd steal my nicotine sticks from under my pillow

[tidal hare]

yeah you better not hope that

Probs not gonna happen

[arctic grove]

why not?

well

lol

[tidal hare]

"do the dishes"
"stay clean"

some of the tallest orders i have seen

[naive trellis]

[arctic grove]

what article did i just read

"War Thunder fan says tank is inaccurate, leaks classified military documents to prove it"

?????

[tidal hare]

they might do their laundry

but not yours

[arctic grove]

no i mean

do their own stuff

and dont live in a shithole

where everything is messy

[tidal hare]

there is a small chance that they will do their own

[naive trellis]

One of my roommates used to throw his dirty socks in the bed

[tidal hare]

ye i had one too

[naive trellis]

It got so bad that he had literal dirt in the bed

[tidal hare]

how to make the room smell like cancer

[arctic grove]

what does cancer smell like lol

[tidal hare]

ok not cancer

[arctic grove]

are you a COD fan @naive trellis

[tidal hare]

but it will smell like something that is incredibally rotten

[arctic grove]

oh so me walking through manhattan where everything smells weird

[naive trellis]

Kind of?

[arctic grove]

tbh a lot of it is fine, but if you walk down certain blocks it smells really weird

or certain areas

Next cod gonna be shit tho

1 year dev time for shg

[arctic grove]

[royal trail]

@winter valvenah but you have to be either a regular or boost to use commands

[naive trellis]

Somewhat, and my wallet is not thrilled

"no campaign"

[royal trail]

@naive trellisif you look at the steam description of the different versions of bf2042 it looks like theres 4 specialists locked behind the gold and ultimate editions of the game, is that true or some sort of typo?

[prime grove]

ayo

"no pinging people not active in chat"

[royal trail]

he was here just a sec ago

sorry

[worldly star]

just skins

[prime grove]

[prime grove]

wait

[tribal wyvern]

4 days ladies and gentlemen

4 days

[worldly star]

added in seasons with the battlepasses

theyll most likely be free for everyone

[flint jay]

I was confused about this also and apparently it's likely that you need to grind to unlock them but buying Gold gets you them instantly

[royal trail]

they really make it look like u have to get gold to get the specialists

okey

[prime grove]

people would be triggered

[worldly star]

nah theyre just included for free w/out grind if you get gold or ultimate (most likely)

this makes the most sense

[royal trail]

yeah it makes sense

[arctic grove]

i cant imagine spending more than 60 on a game so ill just get the standard version

[flint jay]

But then again I also thought they might do the R6 system of buying specialists with in-game currency which could also happen

[worldly star]

that system sucks ass

[flint jay]

And hence you get 4 free with Gold

[worldly star]

the fact that its become semi pay to win is annoying

i hate r6

[royal trail]

pay for convenience

it is

lol

[worldly star]

pay for a chance to have fun

[prime grove]

2042 should use the same system as war thunder :)

[worldly star]

war thunder sucks

[royal trail]

i actually bought all the shortcut packs on bf4 cuz i didnt want to unlock everything on my own

[worldly star]

i heard its just hundreds of hours of grinding for the tiniest things

[prime grove]

used to play it but I couldn't progress at one point

like 1 week to upgrade one of the worst planes

unless you pay up

[flint jay]

BF4 without any boosts is actually a grind

It's kinda hard and takes long to unlock stuff

Shouldn't be like that imo

Especially if you can shortcut kits

[royal trail]

they also sell goldpacks

[worldly star]

if theres a grind, there should NOT be a way to bypass it

[royal trail]

but they needed money to keep the official servers running

[prime grove]

ea should use fifa's system in it actually

[worldly star]

thats like cod selling the dark matter camo

[royal trail]

some special assignment stuff are locked even from the shortcut packs

tho

in bf4

[flint jay]

I prefer to have stuff unlocked and play

[slim quiver]

Idc about unlocking stuff I just care how it’s done

Grinding is fine but challenges are not

Unlocking the parabellum in BF1 was an actual nightmare

[edgy eagle]

Ok.

closest thing to lemon

and

[arctic grove]

Nice

[edgy eagle]

My color settings/monitor settings make it look lemony

i suppose

Or maybe I'm biased

who knows

[arctic grove]

My broke butt: :(

[tribal wyvern]

also i hope i'm not hte only one who knew about blackburn flipping the rat off if he dies from it at the beginning of bf3 lmao

[arctic grove]

Imagine u can ride penguins in bf2942

2042*

[tribal wyvern]

so no one's replying to this?

: (

[edgy eagle]

Kind of random

not going to lie

[arctic grove]

Indeed

So imma be honest

The only BF game I've ever beaten is Hardline and 4

And I've never really played BF MP

Maybe once

[tribal wyvern]

damn

[arctic grove]

what

[tribal wyvern]

you're in for a treat my man

[arctic grove]

Impossible

[tribal wyvern]

he was mainly a cod player

[arctic grove]

I was a cod fanboy for the longest time

[tribal wyvern]

i met him in the warzone discord

[arctic grove]

But I'm over their shit

[tribal wyvern]

remember when i said mosto f the community is moving over to bf?

yeah, he's one of that percentage

[arctic grove]

Mhm

[arctic grove]

You must get your ass in that bf4 mp now

Lol

Maybe I should

Thats not maybe

You MUST play it

[tribal wyvern]

ain't no maybe cuz

cleanse cod off your eyes

[arctic grove]

I'll go to GameStop to see how much it is

[tribal wyvern]

scuse me?

just buy a damn key

[arctic grove]

Bf4 is not that expensive

[tribal wyvern]

it's like 1 buck

[arctic grove]

I don't have PC rn

I have a ps4

[tribal wyvern]

I FOUND ONE FOR 50 CENTS

[arctic grove]

The game is Very cheap

[tribal wyvern]

BRUH AHAAAAA

[arctic grove]

Bruh @tribal wyvern

On the store

Oh wow

[bleak nebula]

battlefield 4 is pretty outdated now tho, especially the movement and gunplay

2013 old game

[arctic grove]

Excuse me?

[tribal wyvern]

there's a 9 buck key for psn

[arctic grove]

Outdated? That game hold pretty well for today standards

[tribal wyvern]

gunplay and movement is outdated tho fr

[royal trail]

yeah bf4 is awesome

try it

[tribal wyvern]

gunplay is mostly luck based and movement feels restrictive

[arctic grove]

I dont think that

For me is good

But

It could be better

How are the battlefield cosmetics tho. Need to know if imma be spending tons of money like I did for cod
https://c.tenor.com/wIxFiobxxbIAAAAM/john-jonah-jameson-lol.gif

[edgy eagle]

Yeah bf4 is still fun

But i love bf5 movement

like sliding

[tribal wyvern]

there were no paid cosmetics in battlefield until now

[bleak nebula]

battlefield 4 is still a great sandbox game, but gunplay and movement is outdated as fuck

[edgy eagle]

and running

and slide canceling

[arctic grove]

Well shit

That's a good thing I suppose?

[tribal wyvern]

they're just camos

[tribal wyvern]

IT FUCKIN IS

did u pre order bf 2042?

[arctic grove]

Maybe 👀

[tribal wyvern]

pre order gold if you're interested in the cosmetics

cuz gold gives you all the cosmetics free

all the battle passes

all the bundles

[arctic grove]

Oh damn

[bleak nebula]

all gameplay related stuff is going to be free after launch

[tribal wyvern]

not free technically

[arctic grove]

"free"

[edgy eagle]

Lemon did you pre-order 2042?

[arctic grove]

Yeah

[tribal wyvern]

but like you don't gotta pay at launch

[tribal wyvern]

yes

[arctic grove]

Noice

[edgy eagle]

nice

I will do such after

I play the game

[tribal wyvern]

gold also lets you play the game a week early

and you get 4 skin bundles

which are FUCKIN AWESOME

a desert skin

a snow skin

and a...............was it a black skin?

[arctic grove]

Mid night pack

[edgy eagle]

bogos binted?

[arctic grove]

For mackay

[tribal wyvern]

no that's ultimate

[arctic grove]

Thats the midnight

[astral marsh]

I hope they don’t abandon the game 1 or 2 years like they did for bf5

[arctic grove]

Its the skin

[tribal wyvern]

yeah but gold had a black skin too

what was it?

[astral marsh]

After it’s release

[royal trail]

huh

[arctic grove]

Is for casper

I think

[tribal wyvern]

pretty sure they won't cuz of how big of a release it is

[royal trail]

didnt bf5 keep getting updates until like now, and they have official servers still running?

[arctic grove]

$100 huh ? Not too bad I suppose

[royal trail]

or am i wrong

[tribal wyvern]

well it's 90 on pc

[edgy eagle]

Lol WHAT

???????

[bleak nebula]

ps4 and ps5

[tribal wyvern]

console for some reason has 10 bucks more

[edgy eagle]

Oh it is.

90 dolla

[tribal wyvern]

if you want cross gen you want to get gold

[edgy eagle]

I have a discount though

[tribal wyvern]

cuz there's no other way

afaik

[arctic grove]

It's because if you buy it on PS4, you basically are buying the PS5 version too. So I wouldn't have to buy it twice @bleak nebula

[tribal wyvern]

yeah

[edgy eagle]

Lemon what are you thoughts on Cross play

[arctic grove]

Just need a ps5

Which is impossible

[bleak nebula]

yeah nice

[tribal wyvern]

yeah well you can get gold

so you can play it on ps4

and contninue on ps5

there's cross progression

except ps4 is 64 players rather than 128 and maps are smaller cuz hardware limitations

[arctic grove]

The upgrade for GOT to PS5 is only $10

[arctic grove]

Xbox it's 80€ i think or

If you don't own it already

They said it was $10 to upgrade from PS4 to PS5. That's weird

Idk. I don't own it anyway

Never played it

[prime grove]

idk why you would buy the ps4 edition in the first place

[arctic grove]

Because most people still don't have a PS5????

[tribal wyvern]

cuz barely anyone has a ps5?

that's the stupidest question ever

[prime grove]

bruh

[arctic grove]

That's why Sony is remaking it next year

[prime grove]

I meant as in like

[tribal wyvern]

a fucking whole pc setup is cheaper than a ps5 right now
