Not that massive but enough fun to be had

I can't wrap my head around no borders though, the zone will 100% have a border with military covering it

[barren pewter]

well, it wouldn't really be a stalker game if there wasn't a military cordon

[rancid hearth]

eh depends how long the attack is for, on average I get about 100 but I also am only a 4k player, with 6 keys you'd be able to do more

technique also matters, rapid trigger won't do much if your technique is also already good

[orchid prism]

Just sounds like your run of the mill DayZ map.

[rancid hearth]

but why tho

just get a OLED tv, no bezels in-between

[orchid prism]

Widescreen setup
vertical video

Probably cheaper, yeah. Even with 4K and an actual gaming grade panel.

[rancid hearth]

they should probably work on their desk first too lmao

It's not like those three monitors are 16:9 either tbf

There used to be an old plugin I tried that added this ...but it was missing a CRUCIAL ELEMENT

The karts could NOT GO UP A BLOCK

ALL THE TRACKS HAD TO BE FLAT LIKE IN GAMEBOY MARIOKART

oh, Minecraft Bedrock

I didnt realise till now

didnt know that game had leaderboards

[hot spire]

I mean if it was I java it wouldn't be cool

You can do anything in Java

[fading spade]

https://youtu.be/_9BXXwksR_k

[ashen lark]

Pls don’t remind me of mc leaderboards

Reminds me too much of when I made tnttag from command blocks

[fading spade]

oop

[ashen lark]

After the wootup

Wish we had it before

But had no way to know the plug-in won’t handle it

[feral ferry]

Cute lil' leak

[small comet]

well now i got a reason to get an oled switch

[bleak pike]

What am I looking at

[small comet]

a leaked zelda game and limited ed bundle

[bleak pike]

Oh

[small comet]

game can be found on nintendo website but the console bundle is new

[bleak pike]

There's another Zelda game other than the announced one

[small comet]

that is the announced one

the leaked bundle is more the point of the pic

cause this bundle cant be found anywhere online yet

or that there even will be a special oled switch model

[bleak pike]

Ah

[fading spade]

I only use my Switch for Mario games now xd mainly mk8d and smm2

[small comet]

u sure its easily modifiable?

also make sure to list the first half of S/N

that way people can verify hackability themselves

they can get an oled switch for 300 and prob wont run cfw

cause no online

i was glad a few years ago that i found an erista in basically unused condition with original receipt and extended warranty for 300 when switches were not in stock

kids deffo dont just play singleplayer

can tell you from having a very small brother

unsure if thats good or not

got it for free digital

idk how or why anymore

i never played it more than 2hrs though lol

[barren pewter]

tbh
they are absurdly expensive

80 CAD
for a game a couple years old

[small comet]

just stating that what V just said is not entirely legal

[barren pewter]

or a brand new one

for the same

idk
nintendo's pricing strategy confuses me

[small comet]

im sure glad i have a library of lots of backups though of my switch games

need to backup some more newer games when i find the time

[feral ferry]

YES

IT'S FUCKIN REAL

Developer: Konami

Synopsis: Anita came to an abandoned apartment to meet her friend Maya, and somehow woke up to find herself trapped in it. She must escape her own fears and the monsters lurking in the corridors, discover the truth behind the events she's trapped in, and try to escape before her own trauma consumes her will to survive.

Nice context

[fading spade]

https://youtu.be/TU-Z2hMM5T0

Here

The context!

[bleak pike]

makes me laugh when people say Destiny 2 is dead

https://store.steampowered.com/sale/BestOf2022

still always the top of steam in catagories

[barren pewter]

the fact that fallout 76 is even on that page

makes me sick

[bleak pike]

wasn't it free

[barren pewter]

...uh
worse

I'll keep pointing to the time it was 130 CAD cheaper to get an Xbox One X with the game, than without

it detracted from the value of the console

let that sink in, Cal

that's worse than free
especially for a game I'd paid full price for before launch (what a fucking idiot lmfao)

[bleak pike]

i dont like fallout 76 tho

[barren pewter]

same

game is shit

settled for a couple grams of weed and another playthrough of fallout 4 instead

I got as far as joining the firefighters before genuinely being unable to play the game because it felt like pulling teeth

blazed through the wastelanders storyline in 5 hours once that launched, and just kinda...

idk
I ain't touching that game again, at least not until it gets sunset and I can play offline or host my own server on my own hardware
and all the content for it to flesh it out into a real game is out

[young hill]

Found a good deal

[barren pewter]

...bruh
it isn't even out yet

[young hill]

I know

[barren pewter]

is someone selling their preorder code?

I assume from like

several years ago when they initially opened preorders

[young hill]

I think some site got a bulk lot of them

[barren pewter]

like

prepandemic

[young hill]

Probably maybe even more countries that have lower prices

Or they just ordered too many

https://www.cdkeys.com/pc/games/atomic-heart-steam-pc

I got stuff from them in the past

I trust them well

In fact they got a few games on preorder that have no prices yet

But they promise a price lock

[barren pewter]

80

CAD

for Atomic Heart

[young hill]

Holy crap

That sounds like a lot of moose money

[barren pewter]

mmmhm

could buy a bottle of my favourite wine for that

and like...a bottle of ok vodka besides

[young hill]

Also is 80cad $60

[barren pewter]

about

[young hill]

Damn

Well I am sure in a month or two there will be a sale after release

Unless you can find a Canada activatable version elsewhwrw

[barren pewter]

that's my plan

it looks cool

[young hill]

I just wanted to get the base game in the meantime

[barren pewter]

but I genuinely don't spend 80 CAD on a video game unless it comes with Todd whispering sweet little lies about 16 times the detail into my ears

[young hill]

Eh...

[barren pewter]

[young hill]

I would not want another Bethesda game

Unless it is Prey

[feral ferry]

Why are you peeps going to buy the game

It's on game pass

That's like 1$

[bleak pike]

Some people want to own games for some reason

I love the game pass as is rn

[feral ferry]

Ngl

After seeing pokemon physical game and trading card prices

I kinda want to own physical games myself

Those rise in value which sounds nice

[orchid prism]

I want to own the whole game and not just the DLC on Gamepass.

[bleak pike]

To be honest for me I just wanna play the game and never look back 90% of the time.

It's extremely rare I replay.

[orchid prism]

I'm just being problematic - Always had a fundamental issue with having a Netflix kind of subscription where the entire series isn't always available. So many games on Gamepass where DLC isn't included. But you can BUY the DLC... even though you don't OWN THE GAME 😄

[vapid lintel]

Why is there no /r/addons4kodi for games? 🤔

[orchid prism]

🤔

[bleak pike]

I don't miss Kodi

[vapid lintel]

60% of the time it works 100% of the time

[bleak pike]

It was fine with a debrid service tbf

Just an outright horrible experience to get anywhere.

So much navigating lol

[vapid lintel]

Kodi is unusable without a proper skin

And even then it becomes... barely usable

[orchid prism]

There's only one acceptable use of KODI. The OG

[feral ferry]

Wtf was kodi

Might be a before my time thing

[orchid prism]

Think Plex.

[feral ferry]

Tbf I don't really know what Plex does either

[orchid prism]

Dang zoomers. It's like Netflix but it is (typically) using YOUR local stuff 😛

[feral ferry]

But

What is netflix

[orchid prism]

https://tenor.com/view/seriously-gif-23861497

[tough jay]

I still remmeber xbmc renaming itself to kodi, such a shame they had to drop their legacy like that.

[bleak pike]

Haha

[tough jay]

I still watch tv shows in kodi, downloaded with Sonarr

Having to deal with different streaming services is just too much of a pain especially around linux

[bleak pike]

Bugger than

[trim rock]

See that proves those Linux users are just filthy pirates!

[hot spire]

You ever run it on an og Xbox?

[orchid prism]

It's my default dashboard on 3 of my Xboxes.

[hot spire]

3?

Why 3

[trim rock]

Why not

[orchid prism]

Gotta have spares. I actually have 5. Two dead ones for spare parts, my original black one from when it was new, my friend's black one and a crystal clear one I bought last year? as the prime one.

[hot spire]

I have a ram moded on that's in a clear case

And a 100% stock one

[orchid prism]

Gotta have my retro battlestation.

[hot spire]

It's got a noctua fan and recap/repaste and that's it for that one

My modded on has the ram upgrade and a ssd

I also have a koolance water cooled 360

But the hardware is dead, needs a reflow I think

[small comet]

id personally use unleashx

[orchid prism]

Just nostalgia. ULX is definitely the more optimized. And this fork of XBMC is just outdated.

But this is what my Xbox looked like when DivX hosted their own competitor to YouTube with HD video, and anime and tv was released in 480p

Pretty sure I had a 60GB IDE drive in it at the time. Not cheap

[tough jay]

The lack of crt is dissapointing but understandable.

[nimble current]

and the ones still left are living on borrowed time

[orchid prism]

Most of my consoles are either already HDMI or have mods available

[tough jay]

Oh yea of course

My gamecube also uses hdmi

[orchid prism]

And this Sony Bravia was a very lucky find. Has a ton of inputs.

[tough jay]

I actually used my computer monitor for the gamecube as 1440p maps directly to 480p

[nimble current]

flatscreens/lcds look terrible for vintage games though

[tough jay]

gamecube era is fine with progressive scan and digital output

There is something to be said about crt output yes

[orchid prism]

I ran 480i for years without knowing it. I think I'll be fine

[nimble current]

sometimes we just don't know any better

[nimble current]

so I just bought diablo 2 remaster

last time I bought a blizzard game was the original diablo 2 and its expansion

I tried wow briefly around 2009 or something

but felt it wasn't for me

and yeah tried warcraft 3 but I hated almost everything about it at the time being a big fan of warcraft 2

yeah it changed everything basically

from how wc2 and starcraft did things

also I really didn't like that early blocky 3D visuals coming from the meticulously crafted and detailed 2D sprite engine artwork

me too, but somehow that did it better imo

or at least the blockiness was less noticable when it was completely vertical top down and not isometric-like that wc3 was

yeah wow also looks like blocky awfulness

it didn't even look good by 2004 standards

understandable though with the world sizes

and player counts

yeah never been that interested in MMOs either

I mean I sorta like the idea of MMOs, but there's never been one that looked appealing to me

my brother was a big fan of that

I played it for a bit, was kinda neat but didn't quite get hooked

[feral ferry]

https://youtu.be/XpWqe13pJ6M

dead game

[barren pewter]

both and more honestly

[ashen lark]

Both

[barren pewter]

I don't see myself getting excited for payday 3

[trim rock]

I'm just refering to the dead game meme that a lot of people spam in all announcements for Payday 2

[barren pewter]

mmm

yes

years ago

tried picking it up again recently but was pretty unimpressed

[nimble current]

kind of about time Payday gets a sequel

PD2 looks soooo old

like a 00s game

[barren pewter]

didn't really

I say that as one who has the entire "legacy collection"
that was the ultimate edition at some point, when I bought it

[orchid prism]

Never saw the pull of Payday. It's like left for dead but with clone policemen

[barren pewter]

more replayability than left for dead imo

there's also just more there in payday 2

[nimble current]

I find left for dead a lot more solid and replayable

but to each their own I guess

deep rock galactic also eats payday for breakfast

imo

[barren pewter]

heavy crossbow

[nimble current]

L4D gameplay is quite simple but its soo polished

Idk how he did this man

[feral ferry]

That looks really familiar

Legacy of Kain?

[orchid prism]

Vexx...

[feral ferry]

I genuinely don't remember

[orchid prism]

It's Diablo 2 😛

[feral ferry]

I was about to say that it can't be diablo

[orchid prism]

Legacy of Kain is a 3D platformer.

[feral ferry]

Like it looks like diablo

[orchid prism]

It's the "remaster"

[feral ferry]

But it can't be one cause it looked familiar

But I've never played diablo once in my life

So how can it be familiar

[small comet]

im really confused why we get another payday

[bleak pike]

Because the old one is played to death

And hacked none stop

[small comet]

oh and the new one wont be

sure

[bleak pike]

Will take a good few weeks to be infested hopefully

[small comet]

imma predict the gameplay will be almost the same just new story and maps (which could come to pd2) and hacking will ensue a few months after release anyway once modders get their stuff up and running

[bleak pike]

Plenty of time

[small comet]

idk took me a good year or so of playing with friends to get max infamy

not like i ever played open lobbies cause people fuck up anyway even if they dont hack

[fading spade]

months? if its the same game other than levels and shit, then id say weeks xd

[small comet]

only weeks if its the actually same engine

[fading spade]

yea

[small comet]

cause then the tools are ported in a few days

[fringe salmon]

its not the same engine

[fading spade]

oh?

[small comet]

thats what i thought

[fading spade]

what engine then?

[fringe salmon]

we've known this since 2021 that they licensed unreal for it

[fading spade]

o

[fringe salmon]

sorry, 2020

[small comet]

im still not all too hopeful for pd3

[bleak pike]

Man Feb is gonna be a mad year

[small comet]

also all the dlc they will pump out

and i have to buy hundreds of dlc again

[fringe salmon]

idk at launch it was fine, then you also just need 1 person to have it if you play as 4 man and afterwards you could get the complete deal for almost free

unlike train simulator or so where a steam sale only reduces it to a few hundreds lol

could be worse, could be better, we'll see how it goes

[small comet]

for pd2 the dlc has good guns though

so 1 person having it isnt necessarily enough

apparently im missing 13dlcs in pd2 anyway

as they just keep releasing stuff

[bleak pike]

Hogwarts, wild hearts, scars above and lightfall

Then march with jedi survivor

Then dead island

For once a year is amazing to me

I need to work on my backlog

[small comet]

im mainly looking to see how hogwarts does. and buying sons of the forest for gf

And that's about it

I imagine a PC gamer would upgrade their GPU every time a new one is announced
Meanwhile if you buy a console, you get to play games perfectly well for the next 5 years

I like this boot screen

https://steamdeckrepo.com/post/YgyGn/walter_white_in_mario_kart_wii

LOL YES XD

[feral ferry]

I don't see any meaningful difference

Man RTX continues be the most overhyped and overtalked yet meaningless selling point I have ever seen

The value is just not there

[orchid prism]

Are you legally blind?

[feral ferry]

I don't like being scammed

What I'm seeing is literally not worth the price or the impact of losing frames

I know peeps love to overhype shit and "OH LOOK, SHINY"

Like, it's not even that good

[orchid prism]

Meaningful means different things to different people. Who would have known.

[feral ferry]

I like teardown's own custom raytraced lighting and audio

That to me seems like the solution that's both performance friendly and works in terms of visuals to strike a balance

Current RTX just does not provide a meaningful visual benefit to justify the major performance hit

[orchid prism]

As with all other things you have to push it to the edge, and then people will find a happy medium over time.

Remember when Autotune hit the market and some artists went insane with it? Nowadays it's a lot more sensibly used.

So you're just never going to use a controller to get perfectly smooth consistent movement..

[onyx marsh]

for osu is it better to have continuous rapid trigger enabled?

[small comet]

it depends on your needs of RT

[trim rock]

That's up to you, try it on, try it off, see which setting works better for you

[onyx marsh]

alright thanks

[small comet]

if ur actuation point is .1mm its the same on and off

[bleak pike]

1k

[onyx marsh]

so continuous just ignores the actuation point?

[bleak pike]

look at the tableeeeeeee

also download the video

as its in 144fps

but google renders 60

Same shit happens in a bunch of games

it drives me through the roof

[small comet]

not entirely

[bleak pike]

huh?

[small comet]

as soon as you pass it on the way down and RT activates then RT will be active even above the actuation point until the key is fully released

[bleak pike]

Ah, nah im using CapFrame

pretty much tested games on low and turned off motion blur

its much worse in other games

eg https://drive.google.com/file/d/1w8FNr848vr1Xjd8QLXk8FTceAeOqPp3G/view?usp=sharing

Arguably, even mario had lore back then kek

[rotund fable]

how do i use the escape key for valorant on the wooting

[orchid prism]

The escape key? ESC is bound by default so... like any other key I imagine. Are you trying to do tilde or something?

That's not even correct british use of innit.

[feral ferry]

It is, though?

[orchid prism]

Funny how life works, isn't it?
No. That is not correct british english.

[feral ferry]

That... is correct english though?

Funny, isn't it?

[orchid prism]

Funny by itself, yes.

In a sentence like this, no.

[feral ferry]

Ehh

Can't say I'll side with you on this one

[orchid prism]

Funny how life works, no? is actual, proper english.

"...works, isn't it" will never be correct.

[feral ferry]

Fair

[feral ferry]

I still can't see why not

[orchid prism]

I don't make the rules, I just enforce them as a good grammar nazi.

[fringe salmon]

it would be correct if the sentence was "It is funny how life works, isn't it?"

[feral ferry]

Funny, it's even a quote https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/7349997-it-s-funny-how-life-works-sometimes-isn-t-it

[orchid prism]

That is a structurally different sentence though.

[fringe salmon]

as you can see that case has the changes I mentioned

if you omit words that does indeed change meaning

[orchid prism]

License stuff?

It's IO and Square? I don't recall there being other owners?

[fringe salmon]

all 3 had different publishers lol

[orchid prism]

[fringe salmon]

square at first, WB for second, for the 3rd they had left square so its self published

[feral ferry]

Cool news https://m.weibo.cn/status/MmKzK0J2L http://ryokutya2089.com/archives/60548

"I got news by chance that a "super VIP" person from an American semiconductor manufacturer who seldom comes to Japan is quietly conducting a personal visit in Japan. The company's products have also been used in Nintendo's game consoles in the past"

Nintendo being visited by mr. Chuang Janssen

Weirdly enough just a smidget after the rumours that Nintendo cancelled their "Switch Pro"

[fringe salmon]

and what part of that is cool news exactly?

[feral ferry]

Switch Pro still has a shred of possibility to exist

Or whatever Nintendo's next console is

[fringe salmon]

so the news is nintendo might not be dropping out of making consoles, cool

[feral ferry]

Don't have to be a boot about it

[fringe salmon]

I mean I struggle to see what info is gained from this news

we have more info about rtx 50 series than whatever this is supposed to mean xD

[hot spire]

Or Nintendo is looking at amd

And Nvidia is trying to suck up

[sudden prawn]

Oh man, AMD trifecta in the console space would be spicy

[hot spire]

Nvidia already has new chip for Nintendo

[orchid prism]

With new security flaws I hope 😄

[hot spire]

Games scale well with hardware, so moving to x86 even with a slower chip then ms/sony would mean easier ports

Nintendo could afford to get steam deck down to switch cost/power

But it would have to be a new console not upgrade.

[feral ferry]

That'd be fun

Fusee 2.0

But Nintendo seems to have upped their software department to completely patch out all exploits on software

We can only hope that Nvidia is incompetent and leaves a door somewhere

Hardware exploits seem the best thing that we can get

I don't see AMD being on Nintendo consoles though, Nvidia ones seem more power efficient

[orchid prism]

[trim rock]

Oh no they gonna write an article about this!!

[hot spire]

Did you miss the steam deck? And all the new amd handhelds

Nvidias socs are only better at power because of arm

[feral ferry]

They are still not great on battery life

[hot spire]

The GPU section isn't great

[feral ferry]

Which is prolly why nintendo picks them

[fringe salmon]

have you seen any of nvidias current gens on laptops, not even scaled down as far as a switch? lol

[hot spire]

Something like a switch would only need 2c4t Zen 4

[feral ferry]

Sounds wildly underpowered

[hot spire]

Look at the switch CPU now

[feral ferry]

It does not need hexa cores but at least 4/8

[feral ferry]

And it's really bad

Switch could also use a 1080p panel to be fair

[hot spire]

Doubt

Steam deck is 4c8t and can emulate the switch.

It's only zen2

[feral ferry]

4/8 is enough

Not below, not more

Seems like the best option for efficiency and power

It's still a handheld driven by a pretty crappy battery

[hot spire]

You forget how little overhead game console oses have

Especially Nintendo

[fringe salmon]

2c/4t would absolutely be enough for that formfactor

[hot spire]

Yeah

[feral ferry]

Not if they would go for a 1080p panel

[fringe salmon]

absolutely still enough

[hot spire]

Deck runs full Linuxos, steam and EMULATES the current switch

And CPU is the weakest part of switch emu

CPU has nothing to do with 720vs1080

[fringe salmon]

yeah on desktop it would be, not on that low power budget

[hot spire]

Switch emu hammers my 5800x3d in some games lol

Like Pokemon

Changing the res dose nothing for the FR

I mean imagine SD with gddr6

[fringe salmon]

is SD BW starved? idk where it struggles the most

[hot spire]

Yeah the sd competition all have much faster ram

Could eve use lpddr5x

[fringe salmon]

fucking hell I cant even find any SPECint tests that have zen4 and also the switch arm cores thats how far apart they are lol

[hot spire]

It's 8600mt I think

Deck is 5500

Ddr5 was big money when deck came out

[fringe salmon]

thats zen2 steamdeck lol

[fading spade]

fucking hell man

[fringe salmon]

so a 2c/4t zen4 would be absolutely fine and doesnt needt 4/8 configs

[fading spade]

wait, the Deck was benchmarked on Windows, gross

[hot spire]

Yeah handicap

[fading spade]

Yep

Got to use up resources on that spyware bloat

[hot spire]

Zen4 would be even faster for lass power

[fringe salmon]

and 2c means cheaper since you need half the space of 4 cores and that is relevant for the low cost they would target

[fading spade]

also, Deck is marketed as a complimentary device to a person who probably already has a desktop

so its purely to play games portably

[fringe salmon]

we are not talking about the steam deck really

[fading spade]

Yeah, I know :P

but someone above mentioned battery life

[fringe salmon]

yes and not related to the steam deck as a device

we have rdna doing quite well in samsungs exynos experiment meanwhile 4050 class laptops might not see any performance uplift compared to 30 series lol

I think that shows which option scales down better

and if you really need arm cpus amd makes those too

[trim rock]

How so that bar chart they showed was like 20x performance uplift!!!!

[fringe salmon]

yeah that was so dumb lol

[hot spire]

Meanwhile 6900hx FLYS as an apu

In both probables and sffpcs

[tough jay]

Firstly geekbench is for a large part a memory benchmark, which is something the steam deck performs quite well on and the nintendo switch rather poorly.
Second how low the switch is is kind of sus, considering the samsung galaxy S III outperforms it by quite a margin in single core and gets close in multi core:
https://browser.geekbench.com/android_devices/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-qualcomm-snapdragon-s4-msm8960-1-5-ghz

[fringe salmon]

oh I know I just cant find any other thing like SPECint that has both in the same version

and yes, the a57 is so old amd used that in opteron lol

[tough jay]

This should be a closer ballpark: https://browser.geekbench.com/android_devices/nvidia-shield-android-tv
Granted the switch is lower clocked

[fringe salmon]

well there are muiltiple switch results all around that but sure, wouldnt disagree it might be higher with better memeory

[tough jay]

The gap is still rather large but nowhere near as extreme as the 40 vs 800 single core

https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/19700528
Android results for the switch

that seems a lot more plausible

[fringe salmon]

well there are no low power zen4 results yet so it would still be a big difference when we compare the actual results

[fading spade]

why do drag cars have that thing on the back of them?

[tough jay]

To prevent the car from flipping

This image from wikipedia shows it quite clearly: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/49/Super_Stock.JPG/1920px-Super_Stock.JPG

[bleak pike]

So they can drag something

[orchid prism]

[fading spade]

OK
NOW I REALLY NEED A VR HEADSET

https://youtube.com/shorts/8F0YiFgYZJs

[hot spire]

With bias ply drag tires they dig into the track and you can run the wheelie bars to get more grip

With any "street" tire car they don't work, as radials lift off the track

Hey guys, anyone have an Escape From Tarkov profile, they would like to share ? I'm a little bummed out as I got this keyboard for this game as there are soo many keybinds in this game that you could cut down with dual keybinds. But unfortunately Tarkov doesn't work well at all with this keyboard. I really wanted to do half way down on W key for walking and all the way down on W key for sprinting in this game but half the time it doesn't work. If anyone has a good profile I would really appreciate your help !

[fringe salmon]

check if https://profiles.wooting.io/ has anything

[bleak pike]

@young hill I still feel weird when I use halo weps in destiny

Especially this one as it throws a frag grenade lol

[young hill]

Funny thing is that magnum does not exist amymore

[bleak pike]

In the newer games?

[young hill]

Nah just infinite

[bleak pike]

It's not existed for me since halo ce

Haha

[young hill]

It was in reach

2/3/4

Odst

[bleak pike]

I meant on a personal level

[young hill]

Ah okay

[bleak pike]

Like it's never been the same too

Halo CE magnum was on a whole different level.

And to many changes kinda ruined it, though it wasn't terrible in 3.

[young hill]

Hmm

I am sure it could be brought back to custom games though

There is wild custom games for halo 3 especially

[bleak pike]

Bungie clearly based this off Halo CE version

Being it's a special too aka extra DMG

[young hill]

Yeah it looks very very close

[bleak pike]

Can't be exact ;)

Chief has been in Destiny

Just not in Destiny;)

;)

[young hill]

I think people said his helmet was in Destiny

But it was building

[bleak pike]

https://youtu.be/kloN64NkGDE

More recently his cryo pod was part of the mission for the Magnum

You had to retrieve it from a "hero who's been in many wars"

And it's the cryopod from Halo CE

[young hill]

Interesting

[bleak pike]

Obviously

They can't just um

Directly tie it

Haha

Good olde copyright

Marathon however they went full ham

Since they own the rights there are marathon weps etc

I just find it funny how they put the energy sword into Destiny but split it into two swords.

"Half truth"
"The other half"

[young hill]

Hmm

[bleak pike]

And it has eager edge as a reference to halo 2 energy sword

Which yeets you

[young hill]

I thought it was 3 but alright

Since arbiter stabbed Truth with his sword

[bleak pike]

No I mean it has a perk it can come with

Called eager edge

[young hill]

Ah alright

[bleak pike]

Basically a reference to speed runners in halo 2

[young hill]

Ah yes the lunge

[bleak pike]

https://youtu.be/SBpOtccDcjM

Essentially works the exact same

[young hill]

Probably less distance though

[bleak pike]

At first no haha

It was borked

https://youtu.be/-WWYbFzLfRU

XD

[young hill]

Typical Destiny Bungie broken for a few weeks

[bleak pike]

https://youtu.be/LNQ33fRfk7Q

Its still powerful

It's mostly fun and was designed for that very reason

But it was a bit to much

[young hill]

Could be useful if pvp has a open area

[bleak pike]

Well heavy economy doesn't allow for that.

Heavy ammo is very limited in PvP

More of a push thing to reach the heavy ammo brick in the middle

[young hill]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[orchid prism]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQXEVnyzjpU

Oh this looks fun. Great art style, good humorous writing and it's a solid economics game 😄

[bleak pike]

Fsr 2.2 is neat on the deck

[lethal lagoon]

can anyone recommend a single player skill based adventure game on steam

[slim token]

define skill

[young hill]

He probably means dark souls

[grizzled bramble]

Games like : The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition, Fallout 4(or series), Elden Ring or what?

Also this game https://store.steampowered.com/app/1684930/CULTIC/ is good, not Adventure but it's a nice throwback to old shooters

...and it reverted to vanilla mod manager. Ugh... RESTART

[wheat kraken]

gotta love rimworld modding

[hot spire]

Not using RimPy?

[orchid prism]

Because it's an app.

[hot spire]

And?

[orchid prism]

That's it. I don't need more stuff to run Rimworld when it runs just fine from within.

[hot spire]

Eh RimPy is really nice to have with mods.

[orchid prism]

Agree to disagree I guess.

[hot spire]

That's like saying you can setup Skyrim with no mod manager

[orchid prism]

Well no. Because Skyrim doesn't have one built into the game (or a mod that overrides and improves upon it)

[fringe salmon]

mastodon also doesnt look right or w/e that is, holy shit how did they make ui so much worse than twitter lol

maybe it is hdr but mapped back to sdr or something like that?

it also doesnt say anything about it so hard to tell

[fading spade]

yeh cause hes using a heatmap to show that it works so that anyone with a non HDR display or are using Linux, can see that its working

yeh hes doing that

FUCK YEAH

[fringe salmon]

yes and he is saying the extrapolated map looks like a shader not like the actual hdr mapping

[fading spade]

thats probably how he made it show in the game

but he OFC tested it without that enabled

[fringe salmon]

you dont even have an hdr screen do you?

[fading spade]

Yes, technically but its garbage HDR, just barely enough to be able to market HDR as a feature

but in practise its barely there

[fading spade]

Fuck yeah!!

I wonder how the performance of this handheld compares to the Deck (ignoring the external GPU)

[quasi forum]

Hey i´m a bit of a hasty person and i just ordered the Wooting 60HE.. now i´m struggling with myself because i just realized i need the "f keys" in "Escape From Tarkov". Any Tarkov Gamers here with an advice for how to setup the keyboard to use it in EFT ? Are there Profile or should i just remap a few number buttons that i usually never use in the game ? (sorry for bad english.)

[orchid prism]

The F row is bound by default on the number row while holding down the FN key.

[narrow epoch]

You can use function key to use the second layer of buttons or you can set up mod tap to have each button have two functions (so hold 1 for F1 and tap for 1)

So you can tap 2 to change weapon or hold 2 to say stuff 🙂

[quasi forum]

thanks for the answers! now i´m hyped again 😄 @narrow epoch @orchid prism

[hot spire]

The CPU is 30-40% faster than the deck.

[fading spade]

at the same TDPs?

[hot spire]

Lol no

The deck is really the only ultra low power APU.

[fading spade]

you know how Youtube doesnt let you watch a music video if you are in a region they havent got licensess or shit for?

can you get around that with a VPN?

cause when I send links of songs I love to my friend, he cant watch them cause its unavailable in the US pretty often

[hot spire]

Yes that's how copyright works

[fading spade]

if I go to US, there is a lot if videos in my music playlist that I wont be able to listen to

;-;

[orchid prism]

Well...more like music licensing.

[hot spire]

Which falls under the us copyright system if they can listen to it in the us

[orchid prism]

Yes...but also no.

Music licensing is generally handled in bulk by all of the major music companies, and is typically handled in practice by licensee companies or rights orgs, who handle payments to artists and enforcement of any issues autonomously.

[hot spire]

Which is only enforceable on YouTube a US host because of dcma which is a subset of us copyright law

[orchid prism]

sigh

[hot spire]

It's all Disney's fault

Always

And hopefully not forever

Which we still find out this year

If no one had claimed the copyright in the US on the music it would not be blocked in the US

I found nice artwork for the Portal games 💜

[trim rock]

Oh no! Wonder if they canceled PROJECT U and Q

[small comet]

Almost elite

just one more trade and i did it

[young hill]

Have you traded your children yet?

[small comet]

what children

those where sold to buy my space ship

family business or smth

i did it

[young hill]

eggcellent

[bleak pike]

Such a clickbait pic

It was more towards the site tbh

But ye I'm not surprised skull and bones got delayed

I don't think anyone even cares for it

[young hill]

Nooooooo they canceled mariyo

Skull and bones was coming in like forever lol

That said next month should have some good games

Yeah I thought it was a sea of thieves competitor

Sea of thieves exist though😵‍💫

Yeah black flag felt more like a sailing game if anything

[bleak pike]

I was till I saw how limited it was

Or well the more info that came out the less I cared

[bleak pike]

Which they did the opposite

XD

[young hill]

That makes no sense good.job Ubisoft

[bleak pike]

https://tenor.com/view/monke-fun-lazar-beam-gif-19589884

Ubisoft in a nutshell

[young hill]

Well

First two watchdogs were good

Assassin's Creed up to black flag was good

[bleak pike]

I didn't like past one

[young hill]

Legion is ass

They even abandoned it

[bleak pike]

Gameplay improved in 2 but it felt boring

One ar least had an alright story

[young hill]

They added stuff over time

Not even talking about paid dlc

[bleak pike]

An actual sense of danger and conscientious

Idk how to spell

[young hill]

I mean okay the first one had that gloomy large city on the run vibe

I liked 2 a lot

Pwns?

Oh

Pawns

2 is better with friends I would say

Yeah funny thing about that

As all Ubisoft games when you progress the performance gets worse

It is sad that Ubisoft never fixed their excessive saving of game if I remember correctly

The thing is people besides myself already stated thid

Happens to all their open world games

[bleak pike]

My god though, legion was bad.

[young hill]

Yes

It is absolute ass

[bleak pike]

I felt shit because my friend bought it me when I was super skint.

And I just could not stand it.

[young hill]

I think the Aiden dlc is there to sugarcoat it

[bleak pike]

Ye

He got me the deluxe edition too

[young hill]

Kinda wanna play it just for it

But when it gets so cheap

[bleak pike]

So I own the dlc but just can't be assed playing the base game

[young hill]

That seems odd

But I think I suffered the same in GTA online

Over time

Also halon infinite is running like absolute dogshit

[bleak pike]

Do you want my login? @young hill

[young hill]

😳

[bleak pike]

99.9% sure I have the season pass for legion

[young hill]

Alright I guess

Have not played anything in a while anyways

Multiplayer is good

Great even

It is just campaign is a joke

Even fallout felt better

343 aint bad

Bonnie Ross is gone

Good riddance

[bleak pike]

yup

[barren pewter]

it's a stupidly long game

I still haven't even hit the halfway point of the campaign on PC and I'm at 50 hours of playtime

[orchid prism]

I got bored by the time they went to ... Cuba?
(very minor spoilers as long as no one explains) 😛

[barren pewter]

I had to take a break because dutch and his plans were hurting my head

[barren pewter]

ah, that chapter is fun and quick, I'll give it that

[orchid prism]

I bet - I was just done with the game. It wouldn't let me do most things you'd expect to do as an outlaw. Like... rob a train or a bank 😄

[barren pewter]

I actually completed the campaign on xbox, decided to play it on PC

it really...hm

[orchid prism]

It's an amazing game, as long as you nod and play along. But try and go off course and it breaks down fast.

[barren pewter]

honestly
it's quick, as is the chapter after that, the last one

[orchid prism]

Also multiplayer can get fucked so hard - A month of having to log in every day to unlock a new "profession" aka. just a new skin for your daily grind.

[barren pewter]

once you're done in Saint Denis, that's kinda it for the campaign
any further missions are just tying loose ends after getting back

although I will admit that chapter as a whole is WILD
and unlike every other chapter to that point is pretty much spread across the map

[bleak pike]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/comments/108yf3o/i_always_go_back_i_cant_help_myself/

haha this is so true omg

[severe compass]

Halo Infinite's campaign was almost good, but there needed to be more of it. Rumours abound that 2/3rds of the game got cut last minute because they couldn't get it working while trying to develop for the PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and the Xbox Series S. All while MS refused to allow 343 to hire permanent team members forcing them to rely on a revolving door of contractors who had to spend 75%of their contract learning the proprietary engine.

What a shitshow of development, it's no wonder 343 can't get anything done

[bleak pike]

it was almost good but open world aspect was just so bleh

imo

[severe compass]

Part of that 2/3rds lost was a larger open world (and I am fairly certain animals were meant to be present?) with more environments. Which probably would've broken up the monotony

[young hill]

Yeah contactors were a bad idea for a game that was said to last 10 years

[young crow]

how many of those are just riding the horse to waypoint?

[young hill]

We got them in reach

[barren pewter]

about half

Never heard of fast travel huh

[slim token]

can't even compete with itself lmao

[young hill]

Look I am gonna be honest

Sea of thieves is boring yes

But it exists

Which skull and bones does not

At least not publicly

[young hill]

I think they roleplay

And just made a thing out of it as well

I knew a group that did the same

And sea of thieves aint bad per say

But it gets old casually quickly

[tepid orbit]

true. Only played 30 hours and im running out of stuff to do

[young hill]

Yeah if you casually play it alone or with another person once in a while yeah it is boring

[tepid orbit]

yeah

[young hill]

Also I do not think it is for everyone

The game is very very basic

Water looks like the art style is done well

But fighting is basic

[simple wraith]

I’d disagree heavily

Insane skill ceiling in that game

[young hill]

Are you talking about pvp or something

[simple wraith]

?

What other fighting is there

[young hill]

Oh I meant like the regular open world one

Where you are either fighting skeltons or sailing and someone attacks you(I hear people cheat)

[simple wraith]

Yeah half of what you said is PvP

[young hill]

Alright then

Never played that

[simple wraith]

Yeah it can be very sweaty

And people don’t cheat

People suck so they think all the godtier players are cheaters

[young hill]

Alright then
