[sinful cobalt]

nice

[stiff fiber]

Ok I finished tomb raider 2013. I wanted to try again to play control but for some reason the last time I tried I cannot get into this game

[bleak pike]

Personal top 10 game right there for me (tomb raider)

First ever game I stayed up till 12 to play lol, didn't sleep and went to college the next day.

I don't usually care about 12am releases even now, I'll play the next day.

[stiff fiber]

I will play rise soon

[bleak pike]

I laughed way to much

[stiff fiber]

Tomb raider reminded me a lot of uncharted

I heard rise is better

[bleak pike]

Definitely, rise is great

It just kept getting better

[bleak pike]

But with boobs

[hardy merlin]

Rise is best
Shadow sucks in that they have locked a lot of stuff behind NG+, but other than that also pretty good game

[stiff fiber]

Yeah I wanted to make a break with control but it will be the third time I will try to get into this game

[bleak pike]

Ng+?

[stiff fiber]

Usually I like having break between games of a serie

[bleak pike]

I liked shadow but I was also quite disappointed

The intro is incredible though

[stiff fiber]

The one from 2013 the ending was ok

Not the best

But overall great game

[bleak pike]

It was a new fresh game taking a HUGE chance.

So I don't blame it

I liked it a lot tbh, it wasn't trying to re invent the wheel but re-invent Lara in a modern era

Shadow I think went away from this

[hardy merlin]

Yeah, a lot of perks and weapons were hidden behind new game+

[stiff fiber]

Yeah it is a good game I started it saturday finished it today

[bleak pike]

Stupid jungle crap they wouldn't stop bragging about.

[bleak pike]

Ohhhh

[stiff fiber]

What is new game +?

[bleak pike]

Finished the game once to unlock bonus stuff on a second run

[stiff fiber]

Oh it is dumb

[bleak pike]

A bunch of games do it

I don't get the point at all

I just play max difficulty, don't make it complicated by locking it behind hard difficulty

[stiff fiber]

Yeah plus I never play again a game I already finished

[bleak pike]

Same

Well not never never

I've replayed halo a lot

[hardy merlin]

I replay a game after I forgot most things about it
Which is usually like a year

[ivory dune]

I do the same

[bleak pike]

This is my struggle with swtor atm

I wanted to finish the last expansion I was on (knights of eternal throne)

Barley remember anything

[latent oracle]

Does the wooting gaming channel have any opinions om the ac black flag remaster

[dusky tulip]

at long last the gold stamp is mine

[orchid prism]

It's shit.

Next.

[latent oracle]

Uhh the bond game

[glad lake]

Is it already out?

I love black flag, only ac i was fully immersed in

The ships and islands are so nice, the atmosphere and mission are also verg good

[latent oracle]

6 days

[small comet]

missing one road and i cant figure out where it is

[little cape]

is dune a dead game?

barely see anyone but bases in the second part

[latent oracle]

Was dune ever really alive?

[fading spade]

Now I'm wondering what Distance uses to determine if you are playing it on Steam Deck
Cause it shows the correct controller icons on Deck

But it shows Xbox icons on Steam Controller

Maybe valve should have an isSteamController variable like that isSteamDeck one they have already

[orchid prism]

Second part?

[little cape]

when you have to build the second base

[orchid prism]

You mean in the main map?

[maiden tulip]

nico was playing it like a month ago

[little cape]

build the advance sub field

[maiden tulip]

idk much about the game besides that

[vivid wharf]

the real road is the road we drove on along the way

[little cape]

yeah i was referring the main map because they make you move to build a second base

like right after you build the sand bike

[orchid prism]

Servers operate in an odd way in dune. You can only have 60 people on at any given time, so you will mostly see abandoned new player bases in the starting areas, and large Clans up north on the hard surface.

Clans will typically be in the deep desert.

[little cape]

yeah i was wondering if it was a server related thing or because im new

been seeing nice bases

let me take a screen shot

right now im making a second sand bike mk2 with turbo

[orchid prism]

Once you have the buggy, bikes unfortunately become kind of obsolete.

But they're fun while they last.

Buggy mining is so much more efficient. Completely changes your grinding once you have one.

[small comet]

if only... been trying to find said 1 road all day today

maybe im just going blind to it

[little cape]

i feel like the worms dont attack me as often like they did in the free to play weekend a while back

when im crossing the sands with my bike

that was exhilarating

[latent oracle]

Have u tried begging the miata gods?

[little cape]

https://tenor.com/view/send-it-big-jump-big-air-stunt-motorcycle-gif-13497860

[vivid wharf]

maybe it's on lower level of some roads

[small comet]

no

[latent oracle]

U should

[small comet]

i drove around those already sadly they werent it

[latent oracle]

Alsp wierd question there was this snowpiercer like train game like rust x snowpiercwr i saw like 20 videos on it n now i cant find it ANY idea wtf i mean

In goin insane ive been trying to find it for days

[small comet]

i think it might be here cause i cant fast travel to this one very specific spot despite it being marked discovered

[little cape]

everrail?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVWx1tg1pMQ

[latent oracle]

Nope

[orchid prism]

I only know a pixel art sideways colony builder game that's snowpiercer esque. Sorry

[latent oracle]

When i saw videos it was still in early acces

[vivid wharf]

has to be dark souls 2 scholar of the first sin

[latent oracle]

Thanks chat

It wasnt in the video but i just remembered

[bleak pike]

i played that

[latent oracle]

Was it good it was like really hyped imo but i havent heard since i assume its cause it is still in early acces

[small comet]

fml it was under this high way (also couldnt tp there) but it also was white

[latent oracle]

Atleast u found it

[small comet]

yeah after flicking my mouse like some mad man

they really need a tool or some way to purchase a hint or smth

[latent oracle]

Question do u play with a controller or do u have a wheel?

[small comet]

controller cause the one wheel i tried had shit pedals (logitech g920 g29 or whatever)

[bleak pike]

controller cos my feet dont work

[small comet]

and im not invested enough to buy more proper wheels and a car seat etc

[little cape]

oh my days

arsenal have done it

someone check on johners if hes goon maxxing

[bright fox]

you can have the best of both worlds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwz11gdU_EM

[latent oracle]

Finally a use for my 3d printer

[bright fox]

[manic owl]

@cyan pewter rbs not sounding like a dying blender is crazy to me , historically they sounded like that in forza games.

[vivid wharf]

too lazy to photo mode

[grizzled quarry]

Its not just me right, the stagea sounds really wrong

#🎮│game message

Like this sounds more like an r35 to me than an rb

[grizzled quarry]

This ones nice

[grizzled quarry]

Especially so off throttle, sounds like r35 rumble/burble

[vivid wharf]

the game looks so good and I love staring at the cars with metallic paint lol

cant wait to see all this on 4k oled, getting one soon

but I wish there were more body kits for cars

there's like 1 for each car lol

[grizzled quarry]

They add more every year and still somehow lack so much

And they are missing tons of legendary kits for cars too

Im still upset they used a 240sx for the game set in fucking JAPAN

Give us the regionally correct version you lazy fucks

[vivid wharf]

as someone new to forza the writing and the dialogue is so lame

I get that it's an uber family friendly game but the characters are so not convincing

I know its a casual racing game but there could at least be some thrill and sense of competitiveness

[grizzled quarry]

Its always been like this

The writing/dialogue is so annoying

It was better in the first 3 but still not good

The fh5 tutorial would genuinely piss me off so much

Between how bad it was and how many times I had to do it

[vivid wharf]

I literally refunded fh5 during tutorial cause it was so annoying😭

for fh6 I kinda made my peace with it cause the game is beautiful but gotta complain a bit at least

[grizzled quarry]

I feel like my complaints about fh5 will mostly be the same on fh6

Aside from the map

Also still no interior customization is wild to me 🥀

Can customize garages before interior 😭

[vivid wharf]

yeah for that price there could be way more in terms of customization

[grizzled quarry]

This why I only play forza on game pass

Havent bought one since fh3 (which was genuinely worth it, great game)

[sinful cobalt]

I do miss the Neon under the car as well

[grizzled quarry]

Aight this i can live without

[maiden tulip]

my dude

[grizzled quarry]

But like, let me change my steering wheel/seats

[maiden tulip]

Dont play forza 5

[grizzled quarry]

ITS SO FUCKING AWFUL

[maiden tulip]

HEY MY HERMANO WELCOME TO MEHIIICOOOO

UNO DOS TRES QUATRO DORA THE EXPLORER

[grizzled quarry]

God i hate his mission so fucking much

[vivid wharf]

I tried but refunded instantly

[maiden tulip]

MY UNCLE PABLO HAS A CAAAARRRR

[grizzled quarry]

Ive never wanted to punch a fictional character so much

[maiden tulip]

WE GOTTA RESTORADO THE COCHE FOR PABLOOOOO

HELP MY FIX THE COCHE MI HERMANO

[vivid wharf]

I also noticed that kinda vibe in another game that is under xbox

state of decay

incredibly family-friendly-lame dialogue

[maiden tulip]

You have no idea

How bad it actually gets in fh5

Like

The more you play the worst it gets

[grizzled quarry]

Genuinely probably top 10 worst dialogue in a game of all time

[maiden tulip]

LETS ORGANIZE THE CINCO DE MAYO FOR MI ABUELA

why not something cool like

[grizzled quarry]

I hate that this fuckers voice is ingrained in my brain

[grizzled quarry]

Let me use my koenigsegg to run heroin

[vivid wharf]

abuelita send me the code for your nissano stagea

[hardy merlin]

Compare Hot Wheels DLC in FH3 and FH5
In FH3 it was like "oh cool, we are racing on these all crazy tracks!"
In FH5 it feels like an ad

[abstract venture]

Even in black desert I get advantage in pvp with my wooting lelelel, my laptop keyboard was fcking slow in input

[compact oriole]

man why cant you zoom out some more on the dashboard cam. feel like you see nothing when you drive with it (cockpit cam without the wheel and hands showing)

[fallow bronze]

change fov?

[compact oriole]

i maxed it

still so close you cant even see the fucking inside mirror

so basically that cam is only usable if you have a 3 monitor setup. even 21:9 you cant see shit

[small comet]

i mean 21:9 is barely more than 1 monitor

i wanna eat that

[hardy merlin]

The only good thing in BK is their jalapeno cheese nuggies

[latent oracle]

I wouldnt know nl doesnt have those :( germany does
Germany also has a chilicheese nugget burher burrito thats really good

[sinful cobalt]

I would eat a BK burger instead of a MC burgir

[hardy merlin]

https://tenor.com/baH1x.gif

[sinful cobalt]

But the Jalapeño Cheese nuggies are

[hardy merlin]

Maccas doesn't even classify as burger nowadays I'd say

[latent oracle]

Like u cant tell me u wouldnt want this calorie bomb

[sinful cobalt]

I would take 2 please

[scarlet marlin]

that doesnt look appetizing

[latent oracle]

They also hade cheese edition with the chili cheese nuggets instead of onion rings

[latent oracle]

Its so good (im a fatass)

[sinful cobalt]

We need a #workout channel

[hardy merlin]

Not really, no
Too much beef and there's this disgusting plastic cheese on there

[scarlet sail]

i can understand hating on that fake "cheese" crap, but how can there ever be too much beef on anything? O_o

[hardy merlin]

When I make burgers I usually use cheddar or gouda
Taste and texture of melting cheese can destroy whole burger for me

[latent oracle]

Its just one normal bk patty

[hardy merlin]

There needs to be balance between starch, veggies and meat
If I wanted to eat beef, I'd go for steak, better taste when it's medium rare anyway

[scarlet marlin]

depends on the dish, sometimes you wanna be able to taste other flavours too instead just a chunk of (greasy) meat

[scarlet sail]

ever tried mixing cheddar and some stronger mountain cheese?

like i love cheddar, but when going for burgers i usually grate some mountain cheese on top for some extra kick

[hardy merlin]

Yeah, I tried with oscypek and fontina, amazing stuff

[sinful cobalt]

I would say that the beef tortila and the chimken tortilla is fine balance wise the other two isnt

[scarlet sail]

ok, those don't ring a bell, i only know the "typical" mountain cheese from germany/austria/switzerland, but yea, literally any cheese goes for as long as it's having a strong flavor and actually meltsd well (tried with parmesan once and well, didn't go that well sadly)

[latent oracle]

I cant find the picture but what about the ones with 6 chilly cheese nuggets instead of bbq sauce and onion rings

[sinful cobalt]

I mean if that has some veggies as well it can be balanced

[hardy merlin]

Fontina is northern Italy, right at the border with Switzerland
Oscypek is our Polish one

[scarlet sail]

well yea, kinda expected that one to be polish, like yea, no way anyone can pronounce that besides poles xD

[latent oracle]

Like two tomato slices and some pickles

[sinful cobalt]

But i do feel like i need to start and workout and loose like 20kg

[scarlet sail]

the other one i would've taken for belgian/french, but eh, italian stuffs can be quite good as well, just stay away with morzarella (which per definition isn't even actual cheese)

[hardy merlin]

What do you mean, Bryndza Podhalańska is very easy to pronounce

[sinful cobalt]

That is an actual easy word to pronounce

[orchid prism]

Gesundheit.

[scarlet sail]

whenever i see polish letter salad i instantly get a flashback of this thing here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfKZclMWS1U

apparently some polish comedy show, idk, but a polish friend sent it to me once since i kept complaining about his polish speaking in the background and how the F someone is even able to pronounce that xD

[hardy merlin]

Yeah, How I Unleashed World War II, amazing comedy

I mean, it's series of 3 movies

[scarlet sail]

pfft ok

[quiet vault]

also what is genji looking at

[stiff fiber]

ok I think remedy games are not for me

I struggled to get into control and I cannot get into alan wake

[sinful cobalt]

I 100%d control

[stiff fiber]

I dont know I find these games odd

I play I am thinking about something else

[sinful cobalt]

It was a fun game to 100% on controller

I get into control bc of the soundtrack

[stiff fiber]

ok I will try alan wake once again

maybe in easy mode it will be better

[compact oriole]

idk sounds like you were bored of it

[stiff fiber]

well sometime I cannot get into some games but it also depends on how I am doing in life

[compact oriole]

if a story driven game doesnt grab your attention 1-2 hours in, its probably not gonna get better

[sinful cobalt]

Alan Wake is pretty much a story game with a mood

[stiff fiber]

If I have worries in life I dont appreciate gaming

[quiet vault]

would buy

[sinful cobalt]

I didn’t get into alan wake either, but control just worked

[compact oriole]

didnt try either game yet

[sinful cobalt]

https://youtu.be/k0QsHKH77MI?is=Fl6tgS2GrQdICYQl this song is a banger to this day

the steam troler?

[novel umbra]

it says "rotor" in englisch, it technically is a rotor in german as well, though typically a rotor on a car is a brake disc

[small comet]

ah

didnt know the rotary engine menu has a diff name

[compact oriole]

wtf

[small comet]

second free game

[compact oriole]

i dont get it. whats the issue with bremsscheiben

[novel umbra]

it's not brake discs that you are upgrading

that is the issue

[small comet]

its the bremsscheibenkompression

[novel umbra]

I guess technically your brake pads are adding compression to the discs

[compact oriole]

ye idk enough about cars to know what the fuck its supposed to be there i just know bremsscheiben exist in cars. usually have scheiben and klötze

[small comet]

exactly

[scarlet marlin]

omg this gif

[manic owl]

well on a rotary its mostly the actual rotor but they translated it to bremsscheibe instead of well Rotationskolben

[novel umbra]

rotor also is a german word smh

[vapid lintel]

It as one tenth the number of syllabus required to meet the minimums for a German word

[manic owl]

yeah rotor also gets used here so uhh nice translation

[novel umbra]

both the car and the rotary engine were invented by german guys

is that the open world batman or smth that ran really shitty on release?

its the batman one thats in pre release and full release in 2 days

[compact oriole]

oh, then nvm. there was one a whole while back where there was a whole outrage about how badly it ran on pc

[fringe salmon]

oh no there was a outrage about this one, based on a min spec that had a 11 year old gpu and people losing their mind before knowing what it actually runs like

ok then thats the 2nd one. im talking like 5+ years ago. mightve been almost 10 at this point

ah ok.. ye i knew a new lego batman was coming and that ppl claim itd run 10x worse than usual lego games

cz of the spec they released some months ago

[fringe salmon]

yeah its ue5 so online discourse instantly went there without looking at anything

and they dared to say 30fps framegen is fine for minspec

[compact oriole]

people got burned on the ue5 garbage of recent ye

[fringe salmon]

on a gtx960

yeah but instead of people trying to understand what part is the issue they either say ue5 as a whole is the problem, or turn to grifters like threat interactive etc.

or look at pre release spec recommendations as if those are perfect representations of a game

[compact oriole]

well i hear UE5 and the first thing i think is: its gonna run badly because like 95% of all ue 5 games ive played or seen ran badly

[fringe salmon]

yeah but you arent making videos about it and making other people believe it will run at 10fps either

[compact oriole]

the only ones that run REALLY well are the ones that have been modified to not include all that ue 5 tech like lumen etc

[compact oriole]

gotta make that bag

outrage = clicks

[fringe salmon]

like I usually agree with tims hate on framegen and think you shouldnt be able to enable any FG below 60fps base, but this wasnt it, making that video and thumbnail based on a min spec of a unreleased game lol

oops

[compact oriole]

anyone using the fanatec csl dd by chance and can share their opinion on it?

wanna get a 8-9nm wheelbase. with the "boostkit" on the fanatec you can upgrade it to 8nm (instead of 5nm). all together for under 500€. if i wanted to go with moza that jumps up to like 730

[small comet]

just dont eat this month and you can afford it

trust

[compact oriole]

well i could just afford it either way. i just dont wanna spend that much more

moza seems like a very very good choice, unfortunately above r5 they dont sell bundles with pedals anymore, so the price increases by a bunch, having to buy shit extra instead

im a lil put off by the fanatec quick release, which seems to be plastic and the standard wheel it comes with, people are mixed on that as well

[compact oriole]

honestly the question is more of a is the price diff actually worth it. longterm it matters that the quality is good and also you buy into an ecosystem by choosing your first brand

[buoyant osprey]

Just finished the final Clock Tower game, 3. It wasn't good
Overall a bad series that I wouldn't recommend unless you are just interested in famous series

[compact oriole]

aight bought the fanatec csl dd 8nm. doesnt seem like the price diff to the moza r9 is worth it

anyone wanna buy a full logitech g920 bundle including shifter?

[hardy merlin]

Oh, I can throw in my G29 bundle too

[compact oriole]

thats the older ps compatible one, right?

or just the previous version generally?

[hardy merlin]

Yeah, G29 is PS4, G920 is Xbox One

[hasty belfry]

Love it when the retail box says PROVISIONAL

[stiff fiber]

It looks so bad

[small comet]

do i want to buy a shitty set of pedals or not

[small comet]

i wish it was an elite series controller not a standard one

[compact oriole]

g920 is a starter kit and the price reflects that

[small comet]

idk man having used it you couldnt pay me enough to use it

[hasty belfry]

Elite ones are just sad, there is only 2 good ones like Halo Infinite and Gears 5? The others are just design lab ones with a standrad ugly design labs box. I got so scammed with the DOOM Dark Ages elite controller just coming in a standard box.

[small comet]

cant say i care much about the box

[hasty belfry]

Looks like they already opened the box as well because it is re-sealed.

It has 2 seal stickers

[small comet]

also wasnt the halo one just green with a golden dpad

[hasty belfry]

Slightly more differencews the carrying casse is green as well

And box is themed

[small comet]

i mean for me the box isnt really smth i consider when buying these

makes 0 cost difference whats printed on there

[hasty belfry]

I guess

But my DOOM Dark Ages "limited edition" controller came in this box:

When the standard edition controller got a reall nice looking one

[compact oriole]

its entry level. it does the job and has ffb. its no comparision to a dd offering. the cheapest being 50% more

all that shit has come down in price a lot. pretty cool

[hasty belfry]

I never open the box so if the box is boring I just sell it

[compact oriole]

you bought the controller to not use it?

[small comet]

i got no issues with the wheel for the price... the pedals ruin it

fully and absolutely

[hasty belfry]

Yeah, I use the Elite on Xbox, Edge on PS and the new Steam controller on PC, the new Forza one was just for the shelf.

[compact oriole]

ive not used other ones yet so i cant really speak to that. id guess the difference to other offerings is similar to how the wheel also doesnt compare well if you buy a dd wheel

not like the wheels that come with the fanatec im getting are great either. but probably a good ugprade to logi nontheless

[hasty belfry]

What's the price on G920 vs T300 these days? I know I got the T300 really cheap so I bought that instead.

[compact oriole]

g920 is 200€ where im at atm

[small comet]

t300 usually is like 300-350

[compact oriole]

holy what.

i think moza r3 for 300€ is a much better offering then

[small comet]

doesnt the moza only come with a 2pedal?

[compact oriole]

it does, you could buy an extra pedal for 40€ tho. so then its the exact same price compared to thrustmaster 300 on amazon

the moza has direct drive which the thrustmaster does not

[hasty belfry]

Yeah, the T300 is "old" I've had mine for like 5+ years or something like that, when I bought it there were no mainstream DD options.

[compact oriole]

ye. market has changed a lot

back when i bought my g920 anything else i was aware of was way more expensive

[hasty belfry]

Yeah I had the one before G920

[compact oriole]

but i also didnt research a lot

[hasty belfry]

G29 or G27 don't remember name

[small comet]

i might actually have had a g923

[compact oriole]

think thats the newer ps compatible one

[fringe salmon]

btw the whole discussion was pointless the performance of the game is completely fine

[fervent shell]

so?

[vapid lintel]

30 FPS is all you need

[fringe salmon]

well as I said, should've just ignored the spec table and waited for the game to be out

turns out judging performance of a unreleased game can be quite inaccurate

[fervent shell]

of course

it was a little misleading for sure

[small comet]

" a little misleading"

[fervent shell]

hm?

[sinful cobalt]

It was fully missleading

[vapid lintel]

That's what the M stands for in AMD

[small comet]

always misleading dummies?

[fringe salmon]

no thats another marketing disaster

[mellow garden]

The duality of PC gamers, they love to brag about having more power than consoles while simultaneously crying when the system requirements aren't the bottom of the barrel.

[fervent shell]

those are usually not the same people though

[fringe salmon]

those arent the same people and its also not even applicable here

[small comet]

woah woah woah my gt710 is the perfect gaming gpu

i mean look at it. it even has a jet on the packaging

[compact oriole]

well just cz a pc is stronger than a toaster, doesnt mean its acceptable when devs dont optimize their games well or are too incompetent

[hasty belfry]

People just want good optimization AND full utilization.

If a game looks like ass and performs like ass then game is ass.

[vapid lintel]

I miss the days of banger box art for GPUs
https://lockbooks.net/pages/overclocked-launch

[compact oriole]

nah youre just not a premium gamer

[vapid lintel]

Nvidia took that from us

[hasty belfry]

BUT I PAY FOR THE PREMIUM EARLY ACCESS GAMES HOW AM I NOT PREMIUM GAMER????

[small comet]

did they? nvidia also did dope graphics

[hasty belfry]

Both good and bad, before you'd only notice a performance difference when overclocking, now you can get a dud right out of the box.

[scarlet sail]

lil correction there, if a game looks like ass, runs like ass and the resource monitor clearly shows it's not even using 25% of the available system resources for anything (CPU, GPU, RAM) then the game is ass (7 days to die being a prime example of such a trash game)^^

[vapid lintel]

They demanded AIB partners to make packaging that adhered to specific standards for big box retailer shelves

[hasty belfry]

AIBs cant make crazy designed PCBs and stuff anymore either I think and can't touch the voltage.

There are custom vbios and stuff to allow like 1000W 5090s but those are not for normal people to use

I also had an anime charactert on my old X1900XTX, that was nice I have no idea who it was.

[fringe salmon]

thats not how that works, resource monitors dont show you an actual accurate value representing usage

like, depending on what version task manager can show you above 100% usage becuase its based on the base clock of the cpu

or can show <100% when the cpu is literally thermal throttling from a power virus-like code

[scarlet sail]

yea right, when a game like 7 days is running and my CPU usage shows only about 20% load, the GPU usage about 5% and ram being at 9GB while the game runs like shit, then the game is shit in my book

[fringe salmon]

I'm just saying those things cant be used in a reliable way

[scarlet sail]

across the board it's a rather uniform indicator if something is wrong with the game or if it's the system

[small comet]

new trick for gamedevs now: just artifically load cpu/gpu and dont optimize. game runs like shit, pc is pegged, ergo problem is the hardware of the gamer

[scarlet sail]

like if several games run perfectly fine and show similar usage counts or higher etc then i'd say the game isn't making use of my hardware despite the fact that it would need it

[small comet]

bonus points for just filling ram with garbage data

[hasty belfry]

Make a memory leak on purpose as well?

[small comet]

no just immediately fill all the ram

why wait for a leak

[hasty belfry]

Spill over on the SSD to fill that as well with swap

[mellow garden]

Gamers have no actual idea what optimisation means

[small comet]

yeah the games nowadays are optimized to eat resources

optimally unoptimized

[fringe salmon]

an optimized game can appear as high usage in task manager but it can also appear as low usage it depends on what the game is and how it works

[hasty belfry]

What you mean optimized? You not fine with 60FPS at "1440P" with DLSS that is actually rendering at 720P and still struggle? :<

[small comet]

i only get 10

but ok

[hasty belfry]

10???? That's like realistic with a headache too real for me.

[hardy merlin]

Your eyes can't see more than 24 anyway

[sinful cobalt]

You guys manage to start a game ?

[mellow garden]

1440p DLSS is fine

[small comet]

oh 1440p i read 144p

[hasty belfry]

My old guildleader used to say this non-ironically, he used to limit WOW to 30fps.

[scarlet sail]

but the best part about that 7 days to die issue was, when that moron mod on the forums suggested that it was to be expected, since i got an intel processor that only runs at 2.1Ghz (meanwhile i set it up that games only ever use performance cores that are boosting to 4.6Ghz all the time) and he simply dismissed me stating so by "that's not how this works", like yea, he is kinda right, the game isn't supposed to work like crap on my system unless the game is shit

[hasty belfry]

Intel bad :>

[scarlet sail]

meanwhile my i7 12700kf is plenty for all my gaming needs, unless the devs are blatantly incompetent like the fail pimps

[hasty belfry]

I miss my 2600K, 3.8GHz overlocked to 5GHz, what a beast.

[scarlet sail]

well, just setting mine to performance cores at perma boost was literally more than enough to never struggle with any kind of game, no matter if it's some voxel intense game like "rising world" or some otherwise resource hungry game like MH wilds, i always have at least a rock solid 90fps @1440p which made quite a lot of friends mad as hell since they had quite the bumpy start with MH wilds with drops down to the 10-20 ranges xD

[compact oriole]

[scarlet sail]

can't they just kick the damned bucked already so they at least serve as a perfect example to other "big studios" to not F with their playerbase?

[quiet vault]

fh6 looks good till you take a closer look

[hasty belfry]

Can't hear you, did you want another live service game?

[scarlet sail]

pfft, i actually haven't bought any ubishit game in like 17+ years by now since they simply lost their brains somewhere around that time with them releasing that uplay crap and all 😅

[hardy merlin]

AC Origins
Ubi replaced Assassin formula with cookie-cutter RPG
Is boring
Levels are actively hampering your progression
Can't assassinate enemies, because higher level
Microtransactions in a singleplayer game
Can buy XP boosters which change progression from painful to normal
Same shit with Odyssey and Valhalla
AC Shadows
People say it's good again, it's back to roots
Try it
Same shit again
Yves, you did it again...

[small comet]

who the crap claimed shadows is back to the roots lol

and what drugs where they on

[scarlet sail]

never been much of an AC fan to begin with, but yea, their other franchises weren't treated any better (looking at anno cough)

[compact oriole]

copers probably. cz it doesnt even look like its back to the root even if i really try

[hasty belfry]

I bought Stick of Truth and Fractured But Whole, good games but mostly because Ubisoft didn't have anything to do with the first one.

[small comet]

like i did enjoy shadows a bit but its nothing like the original AC games

i hope blackflag remake is not a shite show

[hasty belfry]

Another Ubisoft game I can buy for sub 5 euro on BF next year

[scarlet sail]

well, since i don't support censorshit i refused to buy those games from day 1, otherwise i might have given them a chance (since it's one of the few titles that don't require some uplay crap account)

[hasty belfry]

That's why I bought them on console no uplay requirement

[compact oriole]

chances are high the game will be available on the high seas pretty quickly

i think the last ubi game i actually bought was the division 1 and fc3 before that

[scarlet sail]

unless you got the US, canadian or latin american version it's still a censorshit version of the game tho, which is just as bad as requiring some extra intrusive launcher

[hardy merlin]

XDefiant was quite cool
Kinda sad that Ubi Connect worked like 1/4 of the time and you couldn't play in team with friends
But other than that I liked it

[hasty belfry]

What's the censorship in that version? I got European PAL version

[compact oriole]

you keep mentioning censorship. whatd they censor

[sinful cobalt]

the only censor that i found in Stick Of Truth was when we got the gnome dust and become small

[fringe salmon]

every european pc version is uncensored, in germany the pc and console versions dont have things like swastikas and co for legal reasons

[small comet]

which find kinda dumb when the goal is killing the nazis

[compact oriole]

games are considered art so swastikas are ok too now

[scarlet sail]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0Altf3roOc&t=4s

[sinful cobalt]

thats an option in the game

[fringe salmon]

yes the discussion on if its still a timely relevant regulation is different from what the laws say though

[hot spire]

on pc, not console

[sinful cobalt]

okay i didn't know that

[scarlet sail]

that's the german politicians stupidity in concentrated form, swastikas are totally fine in literature and movies, but dare one make a game including them and hell breaks loose

[fringe salmon]

no that has absolutely nothing to do with politicians being stupid

[hot spire]

its not a gov issue, its a retailer thing

it didnt get a retail pc release so that wasnt an issue

[small comet]

afaik the law shouldnt forbid it though? arts are allowed to include it, historically youre allowed to show it and its not glorifying it or downplaying the terrible horrors of the nazi regime

[hot spire]

but ms/sony make you have the same game digital and retail

[small comet]

idk how it would break the law to use swastikas

[compact oriole]

theres no law forbidding it

[fringe salmon]

yes there was

[small comet]

i can see how they wouldnt get age rated though

[scarlet sail]

it has, since they're fine with them in literature and movies, no matter if it's pro, contra or neutral documentation, but if anyone makes a game with them being shown then it's a big nope, no matter if you shoot them up or play as one

[compact oriole]

was, yes

[fringe salmon]

the law changed in 2018 but before that they were treated as toys

stick of truth came out in 2014

[hot spire]

you couldnt even have a mustache on hitler pre 2018

[fringe salmon]

the law was never intended to censor any expressions, you were not allowed to make toys for children with such imagery and god forbid post ww2 people didn't write a law that would include video games, must be evil censorship!

[hot spire]

also i forget when it eased up but you had to have like no blood and gore back in the 90s and 00's to get past the rateings board in germanyt

[compact oriole]

ye. since 2018 swasticas and other ns stuff is allowed in games as long as its not glorifying or promotional representation

[small comet]

they could just update the game

[hasty belfry]

Was Wolfenstein released in Germany pre-2018?

[small comet]

ngl

[compact oriole]

germany was so terrible about censorship for gore. it basically completely went away like maybe about 12 years ago

[small comet]

yes and basically all of them dont have swastikas

but a custom icon

[compact oriole]

all wolfensteins were indexed back then. these days you can even buy em on steam .they reverted it

[hot spire]

yeah it was they took the mustache off hitler XD

[scarlet sail]

it is stupid censorshit when the only thing that isn't allowed is toys for kids, yet they still ban games for adults, like instead of giving an 18+ rating they outright threaten to index them

[hot spire]

you culd 100% buy 1 and 2 in germany pre ban

[fringe salmon]

that would require them to have enough people that would care for it and spend money on changing it in the store etc.

[fringe salmon]

https://klipy.com/gifs/moving-goalposts-goalposts--k01KS5BWY6EGNAM93G2E8QJ2FBM

[small comet]

is it that hard to just not make 2 asset versions for visuals

[compact oriole]

pretty sure you couldnt. at least you couldnt activate em on steam. i remember looking into it for purchase

[hot spire]

100%

[scarlet sail]

it didn't go away completely tho, there's still plenty of games indexed for "excessive gore" etc

[hot spire]

they took his mustache off and changed the sawsticas to triangle thing

[fringe salmon]

its not hard, it just takes resources, time to validate, time to check everything is assigned correctly, update every store, check nothing breaks from other changes alongside it etc.

[compact oriole]

old games that noone bothered to re-review? or new games. im sure noone went through all titles to unlock em. but i know some of em stopped being sold censored and some were made available (like dying light 1)

[hasty belfry]

Imagine trying to click entertainment and misclicking General Chit Chat.

[compact oriole]

im just happy that germany stopped requiring so much censorship in games.. no need to buy shit from AT and NL anymore

[scarlet sail]

plenty of games that released during the past decade

[hot spire]

if you get caught you cant just fix it, you get a temp ban on anything

[compact oriole]

i remember buying 3 copies of call of duty 5 world at war from NL because that shit was completely censored in germany

[small comet]

i remember having to buy dead rising keys and playing with a vpn

cause it didnt work in germanyh

[hot spire]

XD

[scarlet sail]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9niDM9qmaS0

still a hilarious watch^^

i mean that's pretty much only older games but the topic is still pretty much current day stuff

[hot spire]

yeah in the 90s it was insanse

[fringe salmon]

I remember seeing the tf2 blood splatter being turned into toys instead, doing the whole buying orange box from another country to activate because a friend told me it works only to realize I dont actually care if the body explodes into a toy duck or organs

[small comet]

i remember my german tf1 version not have a teleporter for the engineer

(but that was due to an asset issue afaik)

[scarlet sail]

i still remember the first C&C with every unit being turned into a fricking robot making beep-boop noises n shit because pixellated human soldiers is too gory xD

[fringe salmon]

like yeah its annoying and should just be the same as the rest of the world to make things easier but it's just bureaucracy moving slow because why would a politican care enough to jump onto it to help the oppressed gamers

[scarlet sail]

but C&C generals was quite hilarious as well^^

[hasty belfry]

We need more gamer politicians is what I get from this.

[scarlet sail]

meanwhile they shy no effort in actually oppressing gamers more and more, so yea, it's not like they're simply ignoring the topic, they just want fun censored and regulated (see everything even remotely lewd getting banned from the german steam store since they demand age verification nonsense beyond helping...
and yea, what they consider valid changes per year and only ever gets more restrictive, so valve tossed it entirely instead of even bothering

[fringe salmon]

https://klipy.com/gifs/jesse-breaking-bad-8--k01KS5CFZGPEYSV2HDNNAGDYR8B

[scarlet sail]

germany needs politicians that actually work FOR their people as they're supposed to instead of dictating everyones lives with underhanded means and otherwise being on a power trip

[hasty belfry]

I think this is everywhere in the world tbh, you're "voted in by the people" but do everything you can to fuck over said people.

Not everyone, but a lot.

[scarlet sail]

if the votes would actually be legit that is and over the past decade i'm questioning that more and more

[compact oriole]

well theres a reason the whole wests politics are shifting

[fringe salmon]

can we stop before we go from gore in gaming to political tinfoil theories thanks

[compact oriole]

[stiff fiber]

they are not

[compact oriole]

politics have become an insane career. its joever

[stiff fiber]

I dont vote anymore

no point in playing this theater show

[compact oriole]

idk about that. if shit sucks, id vote for change at least

[scarlet sail]

what tinfoil theories? germany isn't sovereign, so questioning the legitimacy of votes and laws isn't a tinfoil/conspiracy theory, it's a valid questioning

[stiff fiber]

any country within EU is not

[compact oriole]

wdym germany isnt sovereign. are you referring to the something something germany is technically still at war thing?

[stiff fiber]

not saying it is better outside EU

but when brussel decide for you you are not sovereign

[compact oriole]

ok by that metric states in the US arent sovereign either

[stiff fiber]

federal state are not

[compact oriole]

because theres a bigger federal govt above em/us

[stiff fiber]

but country within EU to my knowledge never voted for being federal state of EU

[compact oriole]

well the countries joined of their own volition. obv that doesnt mean people voted for it

[stiff fiber]

they joined but then gradually it shifted I can give you the example of my country france

we voted against the evolution of EU here in 2005

guess what sarkozy changed the name of what we voted for and still accepted the change

[fringe salmon]

again, can we skip the completely game-unrelated politics talk in this channel please

[stiff fiber]

people still remember what happened as a huge democracy betrayal

[compact oriole]

quin is right tho

[stiff fiber]

yes

sorry I disgressed

[outer pollen]

Rogue Core is interesting

@proper basin did you get?

[proper basin]

I haven’t no

[outer pollen]

It’s fun but it’s missing something. You also share from the weapon, grenade, buff pool. So if I get the gun you wanted because I chose first

[scarlet sail]

no, i'm referring to how the west is still occupied by the US and the east is still partially bound to russia, same as how every government office, police, welfare etc are all registered as companies in delaware

a sovereign state wouldn't list their offices as companies in any trade register, since official offices aren't companies to begin with, they're part of the state

[mellow garden]

I forgot that Yoshi and the Mysterious Book released today, my copy just arrived

[compact oriole]

is that a game?

[mellow garden]

Yes, the newest Nintendo game.

9 npc cars wow

[compact oriole]

wdym by this

like theyre all from fh5?

[outer pollen]

Lame

[quiet vault]

yup

best car

[compact oriole]

idk. lame is that they sell day1 dlc with like 50 extra cars for the price of almost a full game

whatever they have as base cars or add later is what you agreed to buy in the first place

[hasty belfry]

I feel like every new game should AT LEAST have all the cars from the previous game.

That's the baseline.

[compact oriole]

i wish

[novel umbra]

To be honest a lot of (still used) models are outdated af

[compact oriole]

if it wasnt so easy to fuck people, maybe thatd be a reality. but why would they do that when millions were already happy to drop 120€ for a couple more cars, 2 "expansions" and 4 days ea

[novel umbra]

I can imagine they redid some of them like the r33 for example

Still not sure why those are 9 "npc cars"

[small comet]

i wish the code worked for steam as well

[small comet]

because its not 10 hypercars

[compact oriole]

what code 😮 where code?

[novel umbra]

Oh boohoo

[small comet]

google wanta fanta and play the minigame on phone/tablet

its xbox only though

[small comet]

yeah i dont get it either

i actually like driving non hypercars the most

[compact oriole]

xbox console only or also the app

[small comet]

thats the same

its xbox store

[novel umbra]

Same

[compact oriole]

i enjoy b-s1 the most. i dont like these insanely fast cars

[small comet]

i like them, every now and again but not as my relax drive cars

[novel umbra]

B and A are prob the most enjoyable imo

S1 dirt races are already quite silly

[small comet]

s2 cross country

thats where its at

just slidy slide

[compact oriole]

i unlocked the ford rs200 or smth. that one drove really nicely for example

[novel umbra]

💀

[small comet]

the barn find you mean?

[compact oriole]

nah you get one along the missions. i found an rs500 as a barnfind tho

maybe theres another rs200 version around to find, idk yet

[novel umbra]

afaik only one

you get an RS200 somewhere, forgot where

[small comet]

i only remembered a barn find with smth rs

[novel umbra]

the rs500 is a VERY different car

[small comet]

@vernal breach im getting of in a bit. was there an in game way to check for the m2 fe requirements?

like some entry in one of the menus or such

[novel umbra]

the RS500 is a modified regular road car

the RS200 is a bespoke rally car

[small comet]

or if anyone else knows thats also fine. just wanna be able to check progress in an easy way in game

[novel umbra]

wdym

[small comet]

theres an bmw m2 forza edition you can get for "doing all pr stunts 3 star" and apparently "completing 10 discover japan entries to gold"

i just wanted to know if theres some ingame way to even track this or how else people know the exact requirements

[novel umbra]

can't you check the guidebook or whatever they call it

wait lemme open the game

[small comet]

idk im still at work lol only found out that this reward exists today

[novel umbra]

ye 1 sec

ignore the HDR

you need to complete 10 categories

[small comet]

oh its in the legend thing

[novel umbra]

pr stunts are all their own categories

[small comet]

yeah prob also easy to just do the rivals quick

[novel umbra]

discover japan gets you the AE86 FE which is apparently super OP

[small comet]

oh?

where is that one under

[novel umbra]

same unlock requirements

[small comet]

ah

[novel umbra]

but in discover japan

[small comet]

so good that discover japan has small amount of categories

[small comet]

guess ill have to max the dumb delivery job after all

[novel umbra]

should be easier to grind out since you get 6 of them just gifted with the jobs and car upgrades

friends is just story progress I think?

garages + houses basically is as well

at which point you got 10

[small comet]

yeah ill have to check

[novel umbra]

ah, photography is just the region photography, so also easily doable

gotta say tho, I really enjoy the calsonic and pennzoil skylines

basically an npc car tho

[compact oriole]

love xbox. did the stupid fanta minigame. tried to redeem via website. says it didnt work. tried to redeem in the app iteself afterwards. "was already redeemed"

[novel umbra]

DO NOT REDEEM

[vernal breach]

Not that I know of.. you just need to complete almost everything in the game, 3 star all events & zones & you should get it as a reward

[vernal breach]

It’s sort of a hidden reward

[novel umbra]

it really is not hidden

[novel umbra]

game quite specifically tells you what you need to do

[compact oriole]

its an open secret

[vernal breach]

Closed secret

[novel umbra]

kinda hate most pickups in the game and dreaded having to pick another one for higher tier events

[vernal breach]

I managed to get x2 of them in the auction house, then I got banned but I’m unbanning right now

[novel umbra]

so I thought I got lucky when I got an F-150 XLT FE out of a wheelspin

[vernal breach]

Should be unbanned in… 13 mins 😂

[novel umbra]

?

[vernal breach]

I’m Forza Horizon’s Dark Knight 🤭

Ninja.. some will say

[proper basin]

DO REDEEM

[small comet]

why is my ms account always locked because of too many failed login attempts

wtf

[vapid lintel]

One is too many

[novel umbra]

email gets leaked at some point and some people keep pressing the button to request an email-login code

at least that is what happened to me

[small comet]

i dont get any emails about login codes

[small comet]

i didnt know the auction house has a ban system wut

is that new?

[vernal breach]

I believe it was a thing since fh4

[small comet]

huh

[vernal breach]

I’ll send a screenshot, I’m resetting data at the moment so my pc is off

[compact oriole]

https://packaged-media.redd.it/jwwvx3np3a1h1/pb/m2-res_480p.mp4?m=DASHPlaylist.mpd&var=sgpssan&v=1&e=1779393600&s=d92eb427ec178d31d148b8a315b111aae6762c80 yo if anyone here needs a handbrake for their setup

[small comet]

lol

ghetto setup

[vernal breach]

Average Chicago setup

[compact oriole]

aight ima try to roll back my nvidia driver now cz the newest might be fucked for fh6

[vernal breach]

But they have every ban for each department I think

[small comet]

huh i thought they just gameban/hw ban people

good to know i guess

[vernal breach]

Auction House, Online Play, General Account Ban

[small comet]

wonder what triggers an ah ban then

[vernal breach]

Many things tbh, you can get banned by sniping the same car from auction house

[small comet]

lol

[vernal breach]

And it’ll count towards “extreme violation”

Which is what I got lol

However, thanks to tech, we have tools to dodge auto bans 😂

thats the thingy you get

[small comet]

doesnt say anything about ah though

did you check forza net for the specific ban reason?

[vernal breach]

this was in the ah

[small comet]

ah

i see

[vernal breach]

It takes 24 hours for them to add it to your forza account

[small comet]

i mean not that bad apparently in the year 10000 you can just play again

[vernal breach]

lmao

bringing my setup to my grave

[small comet]

wonder if forzanet actually differentiates between account/ah bans

or even the other ones you mentioned

[vernal breach]

accounts unbanned, sheesh

that was quicker than other titles

[compact oriole]

what does this mean?

[vernal breach]

usually I need to turn my pc off for an hour or so

But it was only 23 mins total

[vernal breach]

so, camping in auction house, keep on refreshing the same rare car until you can snipe it, which means buy it out quickly

[compact oriole]

what....

wanting a very specific car and waiting for it to be available gets you banned??

[vernal breach]

ah works fine now hehe

[novel umbra]

what are you even buying

[vernal breach]

I bought two m2's

but I was in there for about 7 hours

which flagged my account lmao, thought I was a robot

[compact oriole]

sounds like you indeed are a bot

[novel umbra]

are you flipping them or what

[vernal breach]

No, I only wanted two, one for drifting & the other for cruising, its my fav car in the game, drives & sounds nice

[novel umbra]

ah

[vernal breach]

so resetting data duplicates credits :(

[novel umbra]

what

[vernal breach]

its a tool some players use to get unbanned, it basically saves a time your account was unbanned & collides with the banned save, it seems to get the account unbanned but duplicates things you have, so you can duplicate cars, credits & mastery skills I think

[compact oriole]

[novel umbra]

man just play the game

[compact oriole]

cant if youre banned

[vernal breach]

thats what im doin

[novel umbra]

really does not sound like it to me

[proper basin]

I just smash trees

[vernal breach]

playin right now, smh

[mellow garden]

Sounds like a game that needs to be fully online and protected by Riot Vanguard

[vernal breach]

lmaooo

[compact oriole]

am i the only one noticing that fh6 has like a ton of loading screens for everything and lots of downtime before/after races

[small comet]

just like the other forzas imo

[compact oriole]

been too long so i dont remember

[proper basin]

Pretty much as many as 5

[grizzled quarry]

Bro what 😭

[vernal breach]

??

[grizzled quarry]

How tf does it take you 7 hours to auction house snipe

Or was there just none listed

[vernal breach]

It’s the rarest car 😂

One pops up every 20mins if lucky.. but there are people using macros & bots to snipe the cars.. you gotta be quicker than a robot when it comes to sniping 😂

[novel umbra]

same guy that accidentally duped his credits to 999 million btw

[grizzled quarry]

I remember auction sniping 599x evo on fh4

[vernal breach]

SAMEEE

[grizzled quarry]

Made so much money off those things

[vernal breach]

Set max buyout for like 200k & then resell for 20m

[grizzled quarry]

I thought they were removing ah from fh6

Nice to see its back

[novel umbra]

why do you snipe the auction house if you are cheating in wheelspins anyways

[hasty belfry]

Fun?

[small comet]

im missing a few people from friends and i did all story

[maiden tulip]

Lemme know if its good

[maiden tulip]

Good game

[vapid lintel]

Y'all been talking about Forza so much that I picked up a new ride

[proper basin]

get a crunch plate

[hasty belfry]

Real life physics suck

[vapid lintel]

And real life payment terms

[hasty belfry]

Future Marks problem 😄

[compact oriole]

dayum. i didnt know mark was such a baller

[scarlet sail]

old but gold meme about dutch drivers,
"every dutch person that failed the drivers test 9 times get's a yellow plate"

[novel umbra]

and gets to drive on the leftmost lane on a german autobahn going 110kmh

[scarlet sail]

if they'd fail it a 10th time they't get the license anyway but will be forced to always pull a camper so they can't drive fast xD

[grizzled quarry]

My dad will beg to differ

[vapid lintel]

No no, to pull a camper you need a special plate labeled "DE"

[grizzled quarry]

Woke up one night to my dad doing 160 with his 22ft boat through the mountains

[novel umbra]

I have seen more NL cars with campers than I have seen german

[grizzled quarry]

[scarlet sail]

and none of them had any driving skills to boot which is why my mom and i always keep 3 times the distance from them whenever possible
