inner pony?
I have no fucking clue and I'm scared
what did you press
Wtf?? XD
@primal inlet It's the options menu for the "Dynamic Surroundings" mod.
...Oh.
โค thanks for calling me the world
looks like it was P
Added a Preset! called "Reveal your inner Pony!". This will configure the footprint feature for being a quadruped and have the hoof print style.
Uhhh
cc @brisk merlin
why me
you asked
oh yea
i found your answer
I did
cc??

o.o gaming.youtube.com?
TIL that's a thing lol.
It's really just Youtube dark mode...except that the main site has that too now, lol
I don't understand, lol. It says Minecraft, but it's only showing a weird cartoony looking desktop thing.
Yeah...That title was from a previous stream
I don't know why it carried over
Changed it and everything
^
LOL.
\๐ถ
Shouldn't this kinda spam rubbish be done in like, the "memes" channel or something..?
Hey, is the Game Night still going on?
..i hate time zones
for better or for worse, lol
well it certainly is now
mhm
o.o
๐
Oh my
That is gorgeous
the old ones... eh
that's literally just a skybox texture?
^
What a difference
shaders (continuum 1.3):
On another note, I'm looking at the new snapshot. Already found one of the new mobs:
tbh looks a bit lazy
Fish is alright.
Sunken ship:
Treasure map inside?
Yup!
...saddles for?
For horses
Oh
And pigs
Good luck
That is actually impressive
From what I've heard, there aren't any actual markers
in-game
It's just under a layer of gravity-affected blocks
Ah.
But it does have good stuff!
๐
How'd commands get redone?
Is water physics redone?
oh boy
I hope it works with plugins
OH YES
o.O
๐
There's ruins that appear underwater, too.
Some have chests in them.
Usually the stone brick ones.
Wow, some ships spawn almost entirely intact.
Underwater caves, that are actually filled with water. o_o
https://i.imgur.com/nrOsJ8K.png
Yup, the ocean feels more alive now.
Well, I'd meant the swimming but that's good too!
Oh
Well, no. The swimming thing feels kinda awkward.
I'm hoping they'll tweak it a bit, to make it more responsive.
It's kinda clunky right now.
Huh, the treasure maps from ships can have TnT as well:
Urgh. Playing on the snapshot completely screwed up my keybinds for forge. Gotta go through and redo all of them, again.
I thought it would save those separately, not override it.
I created those trees by hand - if you look, those are dark oak mimics. The version was 1.7.2, and whilst dark oaks did exist in 1.7, this server was one of the old 1.7 Spigot protocol hacks. Meaning, 1.7+ clients could connect, but the server was still running 1.6.4.
So we didn't have any 1.7+ features yet.
I used spruce logs, and regular oak leaves to make them.
Aah. I was mostly thinking the way the leaves around them looked & the canopying looked too nice to be natural gen.
Yup, it was just my attempt to mimic them lol. If we had them, I would have planted and spammed bonemeal.
@cinder vessel Here's another, from the same server: https://imgur.com/a/okkE6
Did the same thing, and mimicked the dark oak trees.
๐ฎ ๐
lol
I don't think I've ever seen one just separated out like that in-game, now that I think about it
Here's part of a greek-themed spawn I was building for a server in 2014. I never did get that finished, because it shut down:
I never got any better pictures of it, either.
=/ Didn't send out the map/world files either, I'm guessing
Nope
That's why, real life stuff aside, I've been a tad more away from server stuff
But as the game's been updated, and time's gone on, I've just kinda been more whatever towards builds
Lol, I found an extremely laggy (like 5fps) video I recorded, of a castle I built in 1.2.5, back in 2012. I had a really crappy Toshiba laptop at that time.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6uC100ErGA
My very first ''serious'' MineCraft build, back in 1.2.5, when I was still extremely unfamiliar with the game. All I did was run around in Creative. xD Of co...
My first few builds were: a really ill-conceived hourglass structure with the lower portion underground that required unearthing for the whole to be visible. A big ol' wooden tower. Then lastly, a sandstone mansion in a Creative world.
Idk what my first build was, honestly. Or any of my first builds. I just know this castle was one of my first "serious" builds, where I didn't just goof around.
1.2.5 was when I started playing it seriously. Everything prior was... "idk what I'm doing, but let's goof around for 30min" kinda stuff.
Lol, that's actually really neat looking.
I assume that's before 1.2.5? It has the look of the beta days.
Especially the grass
2010-11-28 according to the filename. ๐ฎ
Yeah, one of those old builds, lol
I forgot how early I'd gotten into it
Huh, the version history isn't showing 0.25 on the list. It used to.
Ah, ha.
Found it.
This is an interesting read: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Java_Edition_removed_features
aw the cat spawn egg is gone?
Hmm, that gives me an interesting idea for a way to handle NMS' dropped features, which were live at one point, since release
E.g. the save beds in Space Stations, health/shield plants, etc.
Cat spawn egg wasn't useful, it just spawned ocelots with cat skins
The horse saddle though...
that just got replaced with a saddle that works for pigs and horses though
so that's more just semantics
But it's not craftable
^
I liked it being craftable.
I believe (not 100% sure) that saddles are craftable with craftbook.
Let me look
wait, how do you get them now then?
...wtf? Saddles not being craftable is weird
You find them in chests.
^
Can't find a CraftBook node that includes saddle crafting directly
Ah, ha. I was semi-right. I can create a recipe for it.
It does include a generic custom crafting node - yeah
@limber harness, could you make saddles craftable, if I make the recipe?
You'd just need to copy-paste it.
yeah i can do that
Okay, making it now.
mmm, Spore
I remember going into that game when I was 12 and had never heard of it before
I remember being super pissed at EA's mishandling of it, lol
my spaceship ๐
Probably among the first few games to hammer home my anti-corporate antics towards a publisher
Which sucks because as a game, I didn't have many major qualms with it
i do enjoy doing this glitch, placing the colony super close or in the colony on the spice geyser
Heh, forget hauling spice we'll move to the spice
My ships in saved game always have these
@limber harness Okay, I think it's done now. I added some other common sense craftables, too. horse armours, chainmail, and I made it so buckets and minecarts can be melted back into iron ingots. It'll need to be tested, to make sure I got the formatting right. I'm not sure if the recipe shape requires 2 spaces if only 1 item is present.
Not for buckets and minecarts.
^
hm
too much NMS, i almost thought this is plutonium lol
I mimicked the old horse armour recipes from 1.6.1: https://i.imgur.com/KH5zwHZ.png
However, I made it require the proper coloured wool for the armour; blue, red, and black.
Kaz edited this, and wants to make it work with all wool.
This is the saddle recipe: https://i.imgur.com/Q29MzHn.png
And chainmail armour uses iron bars.
Same shapes as any old armour crafting.

the hell is that monstrosity?
ghetto-fabulous people acting for clicks
For some reason social media is a hotbed for these types of people that pretend to fight to draw in viewers.
lol didn't strike me as fighting so much as being goofy
well ya know what i mean :p
2 percent chance and I get 2 in a night
but it's 4 in the morning anyway so might as well make my leave funny :P
Lol, I hope you get some sleep.
night
Could you guys also make a game night for European countries?
we tried to make it as balanced as we could
in europe it was around 12-1am when it happened
yes
scan everything there
you should get the recipe while you are there to make it
then you need to collect the items needed and craft it before coming back
the portals help
@knotty osprey
๐ค what is the 3D blocky scifi equivalent of Minecraft?
What
then again...Well maybe with the right mods you can get that out of it
just thinking aloud
Trying to remember a few I had read about awhile ago too
think StarMade may still be the closest around to that
i could never figure out Starmade
I tried starmade
it kinda sucks
I never heard of it before to be honest
I want to edit blazes in a resource pack
to what
I want to give them facebook angry emoji for faces
@agile raven did you hatch the eggs yet
I think starmade died before official launch
I hope they release some more decals for Jager. It's the bomb.
Yeah
@strong hazel https://i.imgur.com/nvQ0WxT.png
found it, ty
Mhm
Yeah, kind of a shame with StarMade, liked the basic idea of it but never really heard much chatter pick up about it
I think if they had more support and commitment they could have made it good
But they just settled with it
It was kind of fun, but really, other sims expanded more while Starmade was kinda left in the dust
@cinder vessel the voxel quality might be too high to call it blocky but dual universe is going to be that and then some
in like 9 months
if you want something you can play right now for relatively cheap maybe stellar overload
Lol... I remember that game. It used to be called Planets3. The 3 was a tiny one, slightly above the word. "Planets cubed".
Wait.. can that be played on mobile?
lol
Does anybody know some good mobile games?
hell no it's really poorly optimized so even high end pcs might have trouble running it
mobile is trash tier there's no such thing as a good mobile game
^
might as well ask for dry water
Monument Valley, Framed, The Room, all solid mobile games
@winter yew Let's see here... Ah, ha! I thought so: https://i.imgur.com/MGce35T.png
I made a 3 part gif in 2015
fortnite is a mix of the worst parts of like 3 different games
Ok. Iโve played monument valley it was pretty good
the biggest pile of crap since the moba storm
Super Hexagon is also killer
so as i said no such thing as a good mobile game, even though i know there's probably a few hello games fans here that will argue their previous games to nms aren't crap
Great for awkward downtimes
@winter yew https://gfycat.com/ShrillMeagerAplomadofalcon
good ones exist, they are just buried in all the crap ones
ye
Yeah
they'll never finish that game
Nms?
Planets3
Oh
early access forever
^
Hheheh
stop calling it by it's old name lol
Is the direction of Monument Valley "crap"? It's challenging, relaxing and superbly crafted with solid art direction
Yes I aggre whale
There are amazing mobile games
The platform is actually becomeing better
Just think, as many controls as u like
yeah and dota is a really smart take on the RTS genre that created a whole new genre, who are we to say it's crap
In my warped, extremely biased, "wrong" opinion: Anything made for mobile is utter rubbish. Period.
Hahah
No ifs, ands, or butts.
lol
I have my reasons.
Monument Valley by ustwogames available on Apple's App Store, Google Play and Amazon Appstore. http://appstore.com/monumentvalley https://play.google.com/sto...
if i didn't know better i'd think you held the opinion computers were strictly for business
Yeah thatโs a really cool game
Itโs really cool, and I wish here where a lot more
I've been typing up my reasons as a wall of text, in reply to a comment Whale made in #off-topic-bond-james-bond. Might take a bit, because I'm so slow, and I keep getting distracted lol.
They could have developed the story a bit more as well
it's not meant to be super long lol
in like 10 years
phones will start being powerful enough to run VR and we'll just be hooking them up to hubs
until then though
The power of mobile devices require immense stylization, I can agree on that.
I can play Vr games
a plus imho. i dig the stylization of some mobile games
They are rather lesser hardware, but criticizing the games themselves and calling them out is rather absurd
Planets 3
Haha, there ya go
such a cool game concept
I liked the first Framed, but it started to wear near the end
It's still really good!
Ok
I just don't always have the patience for puzzle games with plot
I just have 14 hours to kill
Sword & Sorcery is also a notable example of good direction
I fucking love portal
Which I absolutely ADORE
yes
I have always seen the connection to portal in NmS
All those terminals
They look like something in portal
Like atlas
Oh
Oh no
Nono
Hooooo ksy
Turning test is a fun game, very short but very fun
There is a robot in portal called ATLAS, and it has the same eye as the blue loading things in the terminals
Here one sec
seen a couple of roguelike variants that are fairly decent as well(the turn based dungeon crawler kind)
Who hasn't played portal lmao
You could of gotten any other picture lmao
Ywah
But i was working fast
Sooo....
Why do you think Sean has that connection
Just a game cookie
For the fun?
Or is there more........
Fun
Nothing else
Ok
Just a nod
What? You want them to be connected? That won't work
Don't..

Wow
yep
Monument valley
That was a great game
So was the sequel
The best part
Was the totem
10/10 totem because it looked ridiculous

Um, there was a brief period when I had a first generation 8GB iPod Touch. There is/was(?) an rpg fantasy game that was very reminisce of the old Zelda games on the NES. Totally new world, lore, etc., no relation to Zelda at all. It also had similar mechanics to early Final Fantasy games, with jobs that you could train, and you could hire mercenaries to tag along with you to help in battles. Idk the name of the game because it's been so many years (2008/2009 or so) but the game was $9 on the app store, and well worth every penny. It was a full game, and not just a time waster thing. No adds, no ingame purchases, etc.
That's the only mobile game I'll say that I liked.
I wish I could remember the name.
Idk if it still exists.
Might have been "Inotia", but googling that makes me question it.
zenonia ๐ค

:bigthonker:
Rip
Definitely not "zenonia". Those graphics are cartoonish.
This had much more realism.
yes zenonia is also bad ๐ค
inotia is a game ๐ค
I googled it. I didn't know what it was either, prior.
No
K
Either way, it wasn't just one of those run of the mill cheaply made rpgs injected with cash shop rubbish, and no depth. Like I said, it was a full fledged game with a deep storyline and actual lore. It didn't end abruptly, and - to my knowledge - it didn't have a tangible "end". You could keep training your skills, and whatnot regardless of the story.
"Inotia 2: A Wanderer of Luone" fits the timeframe well enough. Released in 2009, and only on iOS. Seems the newer iterations have become cash shop clickbait games. So I'm sure the current opinion of the game "Inotia" as a whole is likely bad.
sad
Googling around some more, and it seems that was indeed the game. The general consensus I'm seeing in reviews and forums, etc., is that "Inotia 2: A Wanderer of Luone" is by far the best, most liked version. Seeing stuff like "there is no Inotia we can compare with this one".
might join the mc server tonight
K lol
looked at the map and it seems super fun just need to get an idea of what to build

Oh, @blazing torrent if you do decide to join, don't forget to poke a Helper or higher rank on the server, for your Discord mod role. @primal inlet and @tough heron are the two that I can think of at the moment.
quickk question, mob griefing is on on the server, right?
@strong hazel Um, it's been split. Creepers do blockdamage, and zombies break doors.
Endermen can't take blocks, though.
But not inside of spawn
Spawn is protected.
what about vilalgers, can they get carrots`?
Oh, that's a good question.
cause if they can't, my vilalger breeder wont work and then I built half a 64 village iron farm for nothing
I had it set to /gamerule doMobGriefing false, and I'm uncertain if Kaz changed that.
If not, then the answer is no.
@limber harness
I might find a way to breed villagers in another way but generally they only reproduce when farmers get carrots themselves
from a field
Yup, they're weird.
I could try dropping them for them but I doubt that'll work
You can trigger the breed mode manually by trading with them until they get green sparkles.
but that's tedious and I need about 50 vilalgers
mobGriefing is on, I think WG or another plugin is handling mobGriefing related perms now
I got a village nearby where I can take some from but that's only about 10
oh wait, yeah that's nice
Well, yeah - mobGriefing is universal, so we can only really handle it granularly with it off
I knew WG was handling the explosions and whatnot, but I didn't know if Kaz had re-enabled that gamerule.
And yeah, that's a good point.
The only question is whether it's a blacklist or a whitelist, since Kaz never mentioned villagers
yeah, guess I'll ask him if he doesn't alreeady gets it himself from the ping quav sent
Either way I'm sure he can toggle them on, yeah
@strong hazel @primal inlet, I saw Kaz's dot go green after I tagged him, but he wasn't typing or replying so I assumed he was looking for the context. I poked him in DM: https://i.imgur.com/bbp5EsF.png
alright, thanks
Nice, it's a blacklist then (probably)
Means we don't have to worry about this in future
sweet thanks quav
Yup, you're welcome.
On another note, I guess I should stop being a stubborn old hag, and try to help Kaz again. >.<
I offloaded the entire thing onto him, which I'm sure was an unwanted extra chunk of responsibility and work. I didn't stop to think how it made him feel, and was only selfishly thinking about me, and how I felt about managing.
If he wants/needs help, I'm willing to do so.
im@sure he'd appreciate that
Digging through my old uploads, and found a screenie of a map, of a castle I built in like 1.4 something:
It was a flatland world, with no trees, structures, or anything.
looks big
larg
newest I think
12.2?
iamhere
youarewhere
no idea what/where that is
@blazing torrent Oh, sorry. Yeah, it's 1.12.2. I was afk.
where shyould i build 
Can't yet, nor use commands - until a staff assigns you a rank. The default rank when joining, has no permissions whatsoever.
It acts as a protection of sorts.
I believe (not 100% sure) that the string is /pex user Tornack02 group set Discord_Mod. Kaz might have changed the rank name.
I know he was talking about removing underscores.
Deluxer, Joey, Skip, Spirit, and Kaz are the current staff that I'm aware of.
ok hey
The visible ranks don't have underscores, but the rank IDs still do
Ok
Puzzledom is good
A neat collection of puzzles
Oh
Lifeline is great, too

"Into Mirror"
A good sci fi platformer

a dark room is neat
Hey, Skip, do you have a moment to login to the server and give Ryan his rank?
Cell Lab is also cool but hard
i have perms?
lemme see ๐ค
are the spawn chunks in the end perma loaded too?
yeah i can't do that Quav
I think only deluxer joey and kaz have perms
I can help later Aster, overlay mod lets you place minimal torches
in school right now
oh yeah, I'm not on now anyways, gonna eat something
Might also need Kaz to assign a role higher than Helper
Yeah, I thought you were a server mod, rather than discord, Skip.
i'm not really active enough to warrant that unfortunately
I wasn't sure, if that's the case I can definitely do it but won't be on for more than an hour
This is a perfect example of a situation where I could have been of use, if I hadn't been an idiot and offloaded everything onto Kaz, in favour of being just a player...

well you can always ask for perms back
No. It was my idiocy that put me here. If Kaz offers it, I'll say yes. Right now, he seems pretty content with me being a player.
I already pester him way too much as it is.
I wouldn't consider that pestering
^^^
o.o
A wild kaz appears. <.<
thats not pestering
I'd also call it manipulative.
Especially considering I posted it here, rather than keeping it private.
So:
- Discord Mod is not higher than Server Helper.
- Helpers can only promote to MC roles. This is because I'm lazy and I don't want to deal with things in the NMS tree (yet)
- NMS roles grant absolutely zero privilege to holders
- Helpers can whitelist people. (
/pex promote <user> mc) - Quav, you're more than welcome to get op back
As long as you're okay with it, and it isn't a problem. I still say the way I went about this isn't okay, though. Like Aster said, a normal person would have just directly asked for it. Instead, I awkwardly tried to ask about it, and tried to argue against myself and give reasons to keep it away from me.
quav im not the server owner or anything here but i think its fine :P
so quav. do you want admin?
like a H
nvm
been a long time since i've played
Yeah, It's easy to get lost, especially with all the updates
how do i add my humble abode to the map
humble bundle dot com
Ryan wanna do a huge favor
Wanna chop down a bunch of birch and spruce logs
And deliver them to my house
I can't come on today
cuphead 15% off ๐ค that's not that much ๐
inabit making :aethonk:
good luck



wait i have $9 humble credit ๐
._. I hate this kinda stuff, so much.... feels like I'm doing something wrong, and shoving my nose where it doesn't belong. It's clearly inciting replies attempting to reassure me and all that other stuff, which is totally not the point. Yet it looks like I'm fishing for them or whatever.
@limber harness Rather than making it any more awkward, I'll just say it: May I please have it? I don't expect you to be doing this because you want to. It feels like I've done something dirty, and idk what to say other than apologise and maybe crawl into a hole somewhere to avoid people.

oh
Oh
wait whay
Has anyone taken over my farm yet?
Th- where'd it put the other arguments
The farm is going to get overgrown ๐
How might I fix it, and do what he asked? This dynmap marker stuff is your area, @primal inlet. <.<
Okay, got the dog icon..
Now the name.
how do I get my base added to the map
I can add it in a moment.
ok take your time
I'm still learning this command.
ew that black is ugly.

Oh.
i'll fix later i guess
@rare coral https://i.imgur.com/r7gVIau.png
no i can
Okay
Uh, can someone burn my farm? I can't let the potatoes grow up and learn what I did with their friends
yea I noticed around my base it looked like someone went crazy with spawning animals
yeah. i upped the spawn limits at user request
I don't think I'll be online again, I've kind of lost interest in minecraft 
well, i toned it down because i did get complaints from people about it
Lol. First time I went inside Kev's place: https://i.imgur.com/BCH7lUy.png https://i.imgur.com/R63ep7q.png
that place isnt kev's btw

can't wait untill wednesday
my last exam
will finally be able to work more on the tree
currently with the floating ring it's very weird
I can totally till Wednesday 2.0
Best build I've ever seen
mostly cause its all underground
What villainy stuff is that house hiding!
underground in the sense my base is a bunch of tunnels and rooms
connected to each other
Y'know, I'm honestly still kinda surprised the Souls games have as much of a...Uh...Sort of community as they have
how do you mean
Well they each hold intricately crafted worlds that, while able to hold secrets, are also rapidly exhaustible from numerous players scouring them
So after that it's kinda just banking on PvP or replays with different builds
Souls series is one on of my favorites
Yeah, i mean i personally love the communities that instantly find all the lore and stuff, its so great to see 30 minute videos just drawing connections and such. And I mean no one has to watch those videos so I don't see it being too big of a limiter on replayability but then again the nature of the internet might muck with those waters a bit
Well even then, I largely ignored them and played through Bloodborne as thoroughly as I felt like at the time (so ignored Chalice Dungeon bosses for the most part, went after the optional bosses, so on), but never felt into it enough to really do too much with the community side of things.
So that there's even much of a community still confuses me. I feel like it only really exists for those that want quick routes to optional stuff & PvP or whatever
they're just really good games in general
I mean yeah, but people say the new Doom was too and yet SnapMap's largely abandoned so wat, lol
Community formation around games is just weird as hell
totally different things though
Doom doesn't have build variety and such like Souls does
but yeah, it's a crapshoot for how people latch onto different things
Every now & then I think about learning how to make old Doom levels just for the heck of it
why does putting a enchanted book on an elytra work in a creative world but not the server?
protection II
Huh, I didn't know that
Is it only for me that you don't have an avatar image???
That is their avatar image
@sleek shadow Their profile picture is just alpha 0
fyi. sea of thieves is out tonight, if anyones getting it we can put together an epic NMS-Discord swashbuckler group
give each other scurvy and what not
anyways its a really great game, i played since alpha. and we could have a crew of insane people waiting for WT
it doesn't bake PCs too much does it? ๐ฎ
nah
its cross play with xbox one
so if you got an xbox you can play with PC and visa versa
its optimized really well though and its purrrdy
ye, w/o an xbox sooo PC would be the only option
Oh yeah, the water is stupidly gorgeous
Like if i wasn't sure it was probably saltwater i'd love to slosh some down
i think their is a website to check and make sure before you grab it
Right
hahaha the game is really epic, so much to explore
What game
sea of thieves' homie! it comes out tonight
Oh
don't make me get yet another game at launch
ive been wanting to get an NMS group together.
A coworker of mine says it's supposed to be good
I'll make you walk the plank soooon
sonnn
I could just squeak by with an okay framerate
it's UWP, I doubt you'll be able to do that tbh
ive been playing ti for a year with stress tests
Rrriiiiipppp
responding to dalek
i mean launch is when you finally get to see the rest of everything, lol
espically if we had like 8 of us on a massive ship
It's MS store exclusive, right?
I would be elite dangerous but I don't got the cash ;-;
Gotta save that shit for college
Every little bit helps
yeah MS store cause its cross play
o_o
buy it for pc you get it for xbox and can play with both platforms
Rare is also owned by Microsoft now I think sooo, low chance of moving to other storefront
yeaaaa
Haha, yeah that's the kicker
wot
I tried checking the store's website and the store site is garbage, lol
noooo
Now I wish I did the open beta
That's why I had to switch over to PCGamer's article for info
I don't know if anyone has played or even heard of it, but there's a game called "The Ship: Murder Party" which is quite fun and is definitely worth a look
It's also one of the few games that run on my laptop ๐
sea of thieves best part is exploration. its got crazy amounts of exploration. figured since we all like NMS so much it'd be a good game to announce lol
Those recommended specs for "medium" settings at 60fps smell like horrible optimisation. Like they were too lazy to go through the code again, so they just let it be a power-sucker.
A 1060 for medium.
Lol
An i5-4690 is the real kicker there.
That's overkill.
A x690 cpu model is on the upper end.
yeah dude! where you guys been?! look the game up i've been waiting for it for awhile
yeah those specs are kinda stupid.
you don't need that much horse power for it to run smooth at 60 fps
nooooooo
it has that stuff but its completely open world
@shy badger "the developer has now revealed the specifications you'll need"
February 13, 2018
though i did climb the ropes of a 7 person ship once and stayed on the ladder, they had no idea i was there and i used the voice chat to fuck with them for 30 mins lol
When was the beta you played?
ive been playing it since last yearish
last one was 3 weeks ago
it was open for a stress test
Were you in medium, or above settings?
high
1080p?
Hmm.
Makes me wonder if the released game will have more demanding features, and the beta has less.
so i played with an intel chip and now i have a ryzen build
doubt it. stress test had lots of people
i will say if you can run nms on pc good
you will be fine
... i dont even know if your getting it hahaha sorry. But yeah if you can run NMS, this game is no problem
Erm... on an unrelated note, how's the Ryzen play games for you? I've heard a lot of mixed things. Like, I know the Ryzen chips are great for things that require more than four cores, but single core applications (like most games) still perform better on intel chips.
And yeah, my concern was more that the article implied pretty heavily that the devs weren't bothering to optimise their code.
I can play NMS just fine.
heh
ryzen is really really good
in my opinion at least
people love to get super technical and nit picky
I mean, I'm sure any Ryzen will perform farrr better than most intel cpus older than 4th gen. Skylake, and kabbylake though, I'm not too sure.
honestly the ryzen chip is a powerhouse, for games.. i guess maybe a couple might have some errors with it. but it is blazingly fast for the price
its the best OC chip ive had too and ive had alot of cpu's lol
the sandy bridge intel i7 i thought stayed cool, but you can strech ryzen chips with no worry at all
without watercooling or anything
I build pcs as a hobby, and can say a similar thing - had a lot of cpus, and experimented with a lot of different builds. I was just curious for your opinion on Ryzen. Have you - personally - used a x700+ skylake or kabylake cpu model (like the i7-6700, or i7-7700k) before, or after using the Ryzen? Those are the ones AMD was aiming to compete with, so if you have experience with older/lower end chips, that would explain the bias lol.
The Ryzen cpus are without a doubt, far more powerful than something lower-end and older than a x700 kabylake/skylake i7 model.
I'll gladly admit that Ryzen excels in applications such as video editing, professional 3D rendering, etc., but for gaming, Intel still seems to have the upper hand, whilst also being cheaper than AMD these days. Idk what AMD was thinking, when they stuck those $400+ price tags on their Ryzen processors lol.
Oops, this is #other-games, not #off-topic-bond-james-bond. Sorry lol.
Okay.
but no i haven't used skylake or kabylake ๐ฆ
Aww.. =/
Well, yeah. The Ryzens (all of them) are amazing for gaming, regardless. You're right to say I'm being kinda nitpicky.
i spend too much money on my music equipment hahaha
I just love computer hardware - it's sorta my 'thing'.
noo i get it
me too
well.. the RX 580 8 gig pairs really well with even cheaper ryzen chips
though the ryzen chips are very touch and go with what memory you go with
if you do the build right its one of the best ive used so far at least
Honestly, my only real qualm with AMD these days, is that they've been struggling to compete with Intel and Nvidia's high-end and enthusiast-end models. AMD has the midrange, and somewhat got into the lower-high end, but everything at the top tier (1080 Ti, Titan V, i7-7700k, i9-7900x, etc.) has nothing to compete with it. I really wish AMD would up their game, and fight for the top spot again. It's been way too many years, since they could claim to be up there.
That, and the fact that a lot of game developers tend to side with Nvidia, and snub AMD.
I'm glad that Intel is at least pairing up with AMD, to try and get better integrated graphics, though.
That's a step in the right direction.
yeah that might change.. this is kinda new territory for AMD now. they were always the ugly cousin but their new lines of hardware have made a statement
and even pulled back intel prices to compete on the mid range
its good for everyone that AMD is stepping up. they must of had a staff mix up cause its almost like apple
before the iphones came out and shit
Lol, yeah.
my biggest issue
with AMD
is now that their hardware has its own place and they arn't just chasing intels tail
they need to get their software up to par
cause they have some SHIT drivers hahah
I've heard (and experienced) horror stories with Nvidia drivers, lol. So it isn't just AMD.
@limber harness knows exactly what I mean - he's been having trouble on Linux.
with nvidia?
AMD works almost better on linux i heard
^
driver wise
on the topic of AMD and Linux, I've heard that AMD drivers on Linux are actually really good...because they're open-source
Yeah, that's one of the few things I know about Linux lol. Idk much else, though.
ever since i got a new 144 hz monitor ive been fighting drivers
Probably. My computer hates AMD drivers too, at least in specific games and applications
its only when i use my 2 monitors
Frostbite games have a 50/50 chance of crashing after an hour
second monitor is 60hz
ugh
yeah its really weird
it could be fine for a day but then it gets all pissy haha
There's supposedly this AMD application that runs in the background, for video recording/streaming. Like, "PlayTv" or something? That thing has caused uncountable crashes, and issues with games.
Try disabling that.
mostly
it usually doesn't cause game issues for me, but it's also barely useful because 90% of the footage will be a blank green screen with game audio
Btw the computer issue was discovered to be thermal.
Shipped in for repair. Should be back soon
@primal inlet Which card to do you have bud?
RX480 4gb
Trust me. I did not want to get a laptop.
Pshh, you just need a fan constantly blowing at the laptop
^
Complete waste of money.
I might still go back to Amazon (six months later) and yell at them to take the return.
Then just build my own and deal with the lifestyle issues
Nvidia's shadowplay has been having some weird issues these past few months (maybe the past year), where it won't enable via the hotkey sometimes, it records at a strangely stretched aspect ratio and squashes the recording, or sometimes it sticks the video in a corner, as if it's a 1080p window on a 4k monitor.
what brand kaz?
This is how it recorded, at one point.
The entire video looks like that.
Yet, I was full screen.
lol... does it have a borderless regon capture option?
Hrrrm. I'm stupid split on the PSN sale atm. There's a cool VR puzzle game called Statik I'm interested in, but also Bound, and Bloodborne: The Old Hunters that I've been putting off getting till a sale like this.
Nope, no options at all like that. Just desktop capture, which records the main monitor. That's really it.
And now, it's just refusing to open the overlay at all lol.
There it goes.
Took 3min.

Oh, it was updating.
