It's been alright for me, but initially it was being stupid
still salty about ow tho
ONLY happens in competitive, too. What GPU related event happens at random, but only during comp, and no other game mode?
either it should be really specific, and easy to find, or blizzard has no clue
upper creek
So far
I like Apex more than PUBG
and I have only 4 hours in it
probably because it's a polished game instead of a neverending mess of bugs
trim rock
Is it just me or is the playtime count for it buggered?
I've only played like 4 hours yet Origin claims I have 26 hours
lone sequoia
I had the opposite
origins says I've only played 3 hours, last time I checked
can confidently say I have more than that
trim rock
Aaand I'm getting frustrated with it as tonight all the randoms I've gotten have been deadweights
lone sequoia
don't have anyone to play with?
small comet
whats apex
bleak pike
A P E X
orchid prism
Not-Titanfall as a Battle Royale.
bleak pike
is anyone having issues with orgin atm
small comet
yikes battle royal
small comet
uh no i hate pvp in generel
i dont need a constant reminder that pmuch everyone is better than me
thus i stick to pve
i tried bortnite and the likes
orchid prism
If they add back parkour, I'll give it a chance 😛
small comet
i sometimes play overwatch but only for fun and even then my friends dont play more than 2 rounds with me before kicking me
bleak pike
i felt the same mansen
but honestly
its great
i wanted to go in and trash it
xD
small comet
i wish thered be more good pve mmos coming out
trim rock
Yeah I have no friends so I deal with randoms 😃
Anyway after I said that I finally got decent randoms and oops I choked 😦
small comet
now they thing ure a shitty random
trim rock
Yup
bleak pike
@trim rock id add you but friends are broken arn
trim rock
Oh well getting second place to a premade with players that have 100+ kills not too shabby
I also noticed tonight that the speech to text thing started working.. but it also mutes voice chat? Feh
trim rock
Eh I'm done for tonight
lone sequoia
origin friends are always broken
one time I had to add a guy by looking up his clan in titanfall, joining his clan, then viewing his profile ingame
trim rock
I guess that's why they have that Steam friends integration
lone sequoia
^^
doesn't it bug anyone else that such a small studio was able to create something like apex, which surpassed all expectations and hate just by being complete and awesome in general
and having all these great features
and they did it all and released it, and had a flawless launch
YET ubi does division 2 "open beta #1" and the game literally doesn't even run
trim rock
It works fine for me
Division 2 alpha was incredibly scuffed and ran like crap for me, the private beta runs ok and isn't really scuffed
lone sequoia
I had a bud try the beta today, says it wouldn't even run without crashing almost immediately
bleak pike
my game keeps just closing
lone sequoia
^^^^^^
keen urchin
Maybe I should try that game too
Although from the looks of it, it doesn't run too well
hushed iris
Division 2 is going to be a disaster
tidal abyss
I've gone against my own beliefs and turned the dynamic resolution on, with target set to 75 fps. Gone with performance over looks. Works well if you can stomach the occassional blurriness.
hushed iris
Just like div1
Honestly i am not sure how they approved a sequel for that game
Must have invested too much into snowdrop
Or they still need ROI on div1
keen urchin
75 FPS is still pretty poor for a competitive FPS
tidal abyss
I'll take it over the 40 I was getting on automatic settings
ripe tendon
I doubt div 2 will be a disaster and I wouldn't call 1 a disaster either
willow quiver
They should have skipped some of the default air-spec details like mist, dirt and all of those small fragments/particles which steals GPU-power
Ran verry smooth for me even tho I fluxed 70-130 FPS.
trim rock
Ha, Anthem really is launching without text chat
orchid prism
Enter text to speech hell
Nostalgia tiem.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hv6RbEOlqRo
trim rock
If only
But why would you launch a multiplayer focused game without something as basic as text chat?
orchid prism
To very forcefully promote the use of voip
trim rock
Yikes, at least they had to decency to make it push to talk
orchid prism
Meanwhile Division 2 shows your IP to other players, if you enable VOIP (Enabled by default I might add)
DDoS of streamers ensues.
The kicker - This was a huge issue in Division 1. Not sure why someone thought it would be better this time.
trim rock
Excellent
ripe tendon
The text to voice and voice to text in Apex is neat. No idea why a game like them would launch without text chat as a minimum
willow quiver
@small comet well you can play warframe
likely still is best in genre in the long run
willow quiver
they aren't that hard to unlock though
small comet
still wasted time
willow quiver
I tried it you can unlock all planets at MR5
without any difficulty
while still leveling
small comet
literally just dont want to waste time on smth that broke on me
cause i contacted the support showing that i completed missions on planets i cant go to and they basically said "unlock it again"
ya no

orchid prism
Naw man, naw.

I'm not really a huge fan of it atm, all the guns bar sniper rifles feel weak

PM me for a div 2 beta key, I have one. If you want a friend pass invite then add me on UPlay, same name as here (PM me when you add me on uplay so I know what order I need to process them). first come first serve

Huh, I thought he meant Team Fortress 2?

god damn it i thought Team Fortress 2 as well.

finally an update on the free AC:Odyssey copy for Project Stream. #soon

Holy shit apex legends reached 10m players in 72 hours beating fortnites record

Waow
bleak pike
Well this is dope https://youtu.be/jIDYdcJJ7xw
turbid mantle
TFW people refer TF2 as Titanfall 2 when Team Fortress 2 has been out for a longer amount of time
Exactly that confuses me everytime I read it.
orchid prism
It's because Team Fortress has been on life support for years.
And there's a lot more focus on Titanfall right now.
orchid prism
So.... life support 😄
turbid mantle
More like terminal cancer, you can still move with pain, just might die every second.
orchid prism
Of course so is Titanfall 2. It also has a tiny, core community that keeps playing.
turbid mantle
Team Fortress is still on the top 10 steam charts.
And even if gets replaced there, only for a time, it always goes back up, at least for now.
weak cypress
Okay, so what's D2?
weak cypress
I like TiF for tital fall.
orchid prism
Tiddyfall.
weak cypress
I'd play that.
turbid mantle
Other free games aren't up there :P it's the only one (except for CS:GO but...)
orchid prism
Too long, didn't read, Tino.
turbid mantle
But it's such a hassle ._.
orchid prism
It wasn't always free - I suspect your metric only looks at sold copies with a price.
Plenty of free games that should top that chart. Apex for one 😄
orchid prism
Oh we're only looking at Steam.
Steam metrics are a nightmare to sort 😄
You can't even sort top sellers properly.
turbid mantle
It's just my first place to look .-.
orchid prism
You want to see top sellers? Sure!
You want to sort by most sales?... I don't understand
It also filters out any games, you've personally blocked on the store.
turbid mantle
Not on the steamcharts thing that ranks with hours/day
orchid prism
The what now
turbid mantle
orchid prism
That's not sales, just activity though.
turbid mantle
But it's not only the number of players etc. they know if a specific player played or didn't play, and can determine:
Returning Players
Retired Players
New Players
etc.
But I will now just play a video game, have a great weekend :)

We've won a couple of times, but my main complaint is that people move too quickly. Like I play on low sense, so medium and long range shots are fine (bar the stupid amount of travel time on bullets) but up close is a mess. It seems like most gunfights at close range are just people flailing about, missing most shots
keen urchin
Used to slow moving bullets from Borderlands, lol
toxic hill
@sleek gorge I'm an insurgency fan, the TTK in Apex is brutal for me
You can get 10 hits with pretty much every autogun in the game without getting a knock, so positioning and surprise are basically useless
Unless you're wraith and you're just going to sneak up behind people and shotty them
Which is horrendously broken in other ways
turbid mantle
Castle Crashers?
Borderlands?

Yurp
hollow sphinx

🤔 Aim assist?
hollow sphinx
^^^
hehehehe
when using the wooting....you could potentialy have aim assist enabled XD because youre usiong a controler acording to the game
keen urchin
How do games handle this anyway?
Isn't Fortnite for example Multiplatform?
bleak pike
with the wooting apex becomes fuckery
@keen urchin not aim assist, game doesn't have it.
I think with me im not great with hipfire
idk why
but with the pad my sensitiviy is not wacky
even if i adjust it
i think there is hidden aim assist
keen urchin
Cancer
Just like mouse acceleration
Can't fathom my any dev would consider adding it to a game
Yet they do
Usually enabled by default
And it fucks with the players
hollow sphinx
XD
small comet
still not sure if i should try apex
lone oasis
@small comet i just did my very first match, doing good, 2 kills, stuck with two French is and then bam Game Security Violation Detected.... Like wtf man
Do you know what's up with that @bleak pike
It seems to be a common issue
trim rock
Ugh can this game stop pairing me up with people who have never played before
Also I noticed that Lifeline's droid heals everyone not just teammates, rather useful when they panic throw one out
keen urchin
Well, Apex won't run
Drops out before the main menu with some obscure error message
tidal abyss
Mate and I stopped being able to join matches about an hour ago. Figure there's server problems.
keen urchin
I was able to select a different server on the start screen
ebon lintel
does analog with twoting work in apex?
ebon lintel
I could tell XD
keen urchin
Lol
Got 2nd place in my second game, lol
Punched a guy to death in the first minute, but didn't find a weapon until like 8 minutes in
ripe tendon
@vital wyvern if you're interested in FFXIV and haven't played just do their trial. Or use another email to make a free trial. It's free to level 35 (I believe you can level all available classes to 35 too)
bleak pike
lone oasis
for people that play APEX and get kicked out by "Game Security Violation Detected". you should turn of CAM and./or lighting.exe before starting the game, apparently a lot of software that control lighting in your case will trigger it. especially lighting.exe for Aura
orchid prism
Oh I could have told you that.
lone oasis
clearly you didn't :p
orchid prism
The CAM overlay almost always triggers games.
small comet
whats cam
lone oasis
NZXT control centre
small comet
oh
still dumb that those apps trigger security shit
We see you have a nice gaming rig and the software to control how it looks/feels. We better stop that
lone oasis
yup
i do like my cam software in Counter strike GO
i immediately know when the bomb is planted because my whole case starts blinking red
orchid prism
ripe tendon
doesnt CS GO tell you when the bomb is planted though?
small comet
it does
orchid prism
He gets it via his RGB. Blinking faster and faster 😉
small comet
so i played apex
and i got matched with people lvl 22 and 30
and i pmuch did nothing the entire game except shooting every now and then
we won
welp im done with the game
ripe tendon
shooting every now and then with 2.4k damage in 21 mins
I call bs on "every now and then"
small comet
im on the right
small comet
literally has my name over it
ripe tendon
ignore me
ripe tendon
literally cant read apparently lol
small comet
not a single revive
ripe tendon
or did you spot enemies/items. That's what I prefer in a teammate, spot stuff
small comet
i did spotting and a bit of attempted sniping with the longbow
ripe tendon
meh damage is negligible then, imo
small comet
i did do some damage as shown and apparently lasthitted a dude
ripe tendon
Some games I have teammates who don't ping, communicate, shoot, and take all the good items only to dc once they were downed lol
small comet
i actually got shit last
i pinged for them
and near the end i got lvl 3 armor
only thing i got early was a longbow cause there were like 20 and a scope
ripe tendon
valid teammate then, imo. 2.4k is a bunch for the others not having that. That dude was balls hard and lives BR or titanfall 2 lol
small comet
well
he had an lmg and basically just ran into the enemy
sometimes i was like "where the fuck is he" and then i looked around and he was like 300m away killing guys
anyway i still dont like the pvp nature of the game
ripe tendon
yeeeaaah I've had teammates like that lol
uneven trench
bomb has been planted beep beep beep
keen urchin
I don't really know anything about the game type
Never played the genre before
All I noticed is that you get the most XP for staying alive long
Although Character level seems useless
keen urchin
Apex
small comet
welp was a nice 20min download to play a 20min round and then uninstall
small comet
i dont like pvp games and i thought maybe i like this cause i enjoyed titanfall2 singleplayer
but i dont like it
small comet
sure its def better than the others but still not a big pvp dude

I'm usually not either. I prefer coop

I remember back in the day you'd get banned from warframe for using discord overlay
willow quiver
tbh
I don't get why
it's not like you can really cheat in any significant way in warframe
bleak pike
S @willow quiver happened to destiny 2 also, so many people got banned for shadow play xD
orchid prism
gaunt lance
The fact thqt combined arms still hasn't releases yet pisses me off
Really looking forward to just cooping
willow quiver
@bleak pike Is the game 100% downloaded and installed?`
hollow sphinx
who as their start bar at the top?
willow quiver
Developers tend do have it there, gets less in the way.
sleek gorge
small comet
@willow quiver idk any developer that has it moved away from bottom
willow quiver
Almost everyone at my work does, the younger ones mostly.
small comet
idk it would annoy the crap out of me
with it at the bottom i can just pull the mouse down/up and not worry about missing the minimize/close or taskbar
toxic hill
Everyone at my work that I've seen has it at the bottom
willow quiver
if you ahve mor ethan one screen a Taskbar on the side is really annoying
bleak pike
@willow quiver ye
ripe tendon
Ya know, I would've expected Caustic to be the gay character in Apex not Gibraltar.
bleak pike
Really? Lol
If was kinda obvious bloodhound was
It's stupid tbh
No characters have no real lore
There's a lack of story and they just did this to sound woke
Whereas overwatch is completely different
Their "lore" for these characters sound like children wrote it
Oh and I don't like gender politics, making bloodhound none binary in a video game is silly.
Either a male or female, no one is bothered by who someone chooses to be, well obviously a lot of people are but personality I admire people who go through changing their gender, but gender neutral stuff? Sorry but no in my eyes.
And to do that on a character for the sake of being woke, again no, overwatch did it right.
trim rock
And here I was blissfully unaware about that stuff in the game until news sites made a big deal about it
Which IMO is doing it right because why should that be a front and center thing
So how exactly is Overwatch doing it better?
willow quiver
Overwatch "has" character lore where they can build them
but tbh tf2 has more interesting characters than overwatch
bleak pike
Because overwatch has such huge lore and have been around for much longer before revealing such facts
They didn't make a game and decided to make their characters woke for the sake of it
Respawn even did the whole or we are a woke diverse team so right away we wanted our characters to be woke too
With no lore we just throw it out there with he had a boyfriend with a motorcycle lmao
Soldier 76 was a surprise because of all this time we've got to know his lore etc he's a dark and closed person and a bit of a dick who has had a very very flirty relationship with Anne, now we know why he's so miserable, Private and a dick.
At this rate devs are just going to start making all their characters woke because of social politics
small comet
give s76 lore thanks
bleak pike
@willow quiver I kinda disagree and Im a HUGE titanfall fan, we only really got to see decent lore in titanfall 2, number one we saw it but not much
small comet
maybe then i can find out why im so miserable, private and a dick
trim rock
So you don't think they can expand on that later for those who care? Much like what Overwatch is doing...
willow quiver
they can
small comet
shouldnt they bring lore in before they claim they are non binary whatever
bleak pike
My issue is they sre doing it before even developing a character out right for the sake of politics.
willow quiver
but revealing such things isn't a good way to start lore imo
bleak pike
Exactly
willow quiver
it's not perfect, but a lot better implemented in the character
atr least in soldiers case
trim rock
So it would be better if they just skipped the whole character lore section in the website until they get entire mini novels for each and every character?
bleak pike
But look at symetra and how they dealt with her autistic side
They hinted at it everyday
willow quiver
and it's okay in the case for tracer because it's not what they started it
bleak pike
Never made it so bland
And it's nice
Tracer was similar
And then we saw that last little box on her comic
Coming home and sitting down watching a film
Wasn't "we are a diverse team so we decided to make some of our characters gay right away when making our game"
willow quiver
yea
actually axton, the soldier from borderlands 2, is also bisexual
they jsut thought that it was stupid to just say it, since it didn't matter at all
bleak pike
Isn't what's his name also, the ninja dude
willow quiver
and if it really doesn't matter since the characters don't have a deep enough story it's completely irrelevant imo
zero
or zer0
bleak pike
Ye
I hate social politics, its so unatrual I find that it looks worse
My uni for example
They had a picture on our front page
With even numbers of all backgrounds
I need to be careful about my wording here
But what I mean is surely its more offensive to say Asian people if a university was having a majority of Asians in a picture so they look more "diverse"
willow quiver
you meant they give overexposure to minor groups?
bleak pike
If they can't treat all groups equel and they want to show this isn't the case or that they do then clearly the fact they need to show this in try first place is either for social politics are because they aren't actually for equal groups then vs now.
If that makes sense
I'm trying so hard to not say the wrong thing lmao
willow quiver
lol
tbh
it would be easier for them if they just didn't care about such things
my uni and schools would have a really hard time
to scrape together the 4 black or asian kids to make it to at least half of the pictures on their website
it really doesn't matter to most people, and thuse who care about such stuff are usually either racist or overthinking
bleak pike
For example in the picture recently released, it's so specific, 3 Muslims, 3 Asians, 3 English students and 3 other sutdenrd from abroad.
Making is so specific is so obvious what they sre doing, like if you're going to advertise your student take a normal damn picture because I know for a fact my classes are wonderfully diverse, we have so many people from so many backgrounds and I met loads of great people in my first year.
willow quiver
tbh
I think my university only has pictures of white germans because they only have white germans attending
I don't think I have seen one black or asian person
a couple muslims but that's it
bleak pike
Exactly and that's not an issue lmao, you can't force diverisy if simply isn't the case, unless they are in the background or allowing then fuck your uni
willow quiver
nah
bleak pike
Like, don't try and paint a picture if there isn't any need to.
willow quiver
it'S companies that accept the students
and there are over 100 companies that can accept one
ift hey do that the uni can't decline
bleak pike
I can't type apparently
My point is, don't be a dick and be woke for political reasons/marketing, just be better.
keen urchin
Wait, there's story to Bloodhound?
bleak pike
No
It was just the choice of their lead designer
Wait sorry no a lead community manager
Even worse
keen urchin
Why can't they just let everyone be undefined?
Like the other 6?
Or are they now confirmed hetero?
This is weird
bleak pike
I don't understand why companies are just trying to make points
Ye it's weird becasue it doesn't make sense and clearly political.
keen urchin
The chances that not one, but two out of 8 characters are LGBT is already way less than 1%
Don't make it that weird
keen urchin
Would be a lot more fun if Gibraltar identified not only as gay, but also as a turtle
I'd totally do that
Just be politically correct and also secretly piss everyone off who takes this thing way to serious
ripe tendon
holy shit children in BR games are unbearable
PTT doesn't exist and they ramble nonstop and in Apex the ping system doesn't exist lol
trim rock
Sounds about right
ripe tendon
then you get that dude who constantly yells at you to revive him even though there are 3 enemies on his body
I just left that game and let him die. super satisfying
bleak pike
@ripe tendon lol team spirit
ripe tendon
lol sorry but if you bitch for a stupid reason good luck
bleak pike
You'd hate playing with me xD especially if there's only one person left on my body
It's either kill or be killed xD
ripe tendon
that's the point though there was at least 3 dudes
if it's 1 guy I'll 1v1 him
but I'm not gonna go run into a group and stand there while they turn me into a video to put on pornhub

@bleak pike Warframe crossplay never gonna happen
bleak pike
@violet vessel I know, though progression sync would be nice....
You can only do it one time
violet vessel
I synced my progression from PC to Switch. Which is cool
But yeah, I'd like it if my Switch was up to date with PC
But with how segregated the consoles are in terms of how the markets operate. It's a slim chance they will do proper cross progression
Also, the update cycles for PC vs Consoles
sleek gorge
@turbid mantle yep, Tetris 99 released today. 99 people compete in a game of Tetris. So basically your game's played on a big board, with everyone else's being displayed around it
It actually looks pretty cool
As far as tetris goes
willow quiver
It's a switch exclusive
my only problem with it
I don't get why they couldn't have thought of that bbefore the battle royale hype thouhg
i'm glad they didn't use that in their marketing
bleak pike
@violet vessel you can't sync, it's only one time sadly
neat cypress
Doubt warframe would ever do crossplay. They like getting their patches out on pc fast. If they had to wait for approval on console every time. I just can't see it happening.
willow quiver
they legit said that it isn't on their plan and liek they said it it won't be for at least a year, which is better imo, I have no problem with ironing out the bugs on pc
neat cypress
They do so many hotfixes after releasing new content. If they released the same content simultaneously on console there would be a lot of bugs that couldn't get fixed fast.
willow quiver
yep
and there is some behind the scenes stuff that is different
console users don't get auto banned for doing 10 hours survival
neat cypress
I bought my switch because I wanted to play breath of the wild. I just think nintendo has some of the better exclusive games. And it actually does things that my pc would have trouble doing unlike the other big consoles.
willow quiver
yep
neat cypress
I would like to play some of the ps4 exclusives but it's expensive..
willow quiver
I hate the ps4 and xbox for doing so little different
the switch at least has a lot of good exclusives
although I'd prefer if there was a more pwoerful version that could handle 1080p 60fps
which would be easily achievable if it wasn't keplar architecture
neat cypress
I use it mainly in handheld mode too. But I've played a lot of couch multiplayer with friends and family with it.
willow quiver
I pretty much only play in the docked mode
which may be a result of me mainly playing smash on it
Oh, and the Pro controller actually is pretty good
would be my main controlelr on pc if the triggers were analogue
neat cypress
I got issues with my eyes and wearing glasses hurt. But I don't need glasses to see something relatively close. So handheld just feels better.
willow quiver
ah, ok
I don't have any eye issues, can't really saya anything about that
the switch perofrms better in the dock though

^^^ if you're trying to ship something to canada from us, you run the risk of waiting 5ever
most shipping places have agencies that will do "customs' job" for them
when you don't, you could end up legit waiting forever
I once ordered something from china, legit took 5 months to arrive
just cuz of customs lol
granted it probably had to go through several checkpoints, but you see my concern
wide cairn
lone sequoia
it's a little jumpy but that's pretty cool
wide cairn
Tweaking with settings now
It's always going to be jerky at low deflections I think
There seems to be a problem when switching from one side to the other, needs some work I think, but promising
lone sequoia
what is the ~frequency of the modulations at any given moment
or period, I should say
wide cairn
Just takes input from a joystick
could be anything
I have a "MinTime" and a "MaxTime"
MinTime is the minimum amount of time that a button can be pressed for
many games need keys held for ~20-50ms to see them
due to using a poll loop
In this version, all presses are for MinTime duration
MaxTime is to configure the maximum amount of time between taps
right
lone sequoia
that's rough
at 60fps will have 17ms between each frame
and if the min is 20, then you're probably stuck with that jittering
wide cairn
Working out the timings is a bit of a mind-bender, but the real tricky part is transitioning between timings as the axis varies
lone sequoia
you said you were doing variable "down" periods, right?
wide cairn
variable release time
but I would like to play with different versions
working out the timings of a variable press time version are not a problem, it's the transitioning between timings bit
This is like my 3rd stab at it, the previous 2 used variable press timings and I failed at the transitioning bit

By the way, on the whole EPIC/Steam thing, worth noting: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DuFe-wZUwAAJFJM.jpg

ouch
lone sequoia
what do you think caused the big difference?
it's not like they've removed or changed anything, have they?
willow quiver
I think publishers and Developers started noticing that there can also be bad feedback
and Steam got littered with trash much more than ever before
keen urchin
They do earn a bigger share than epic, that's for sure
It's a much more mature and featurerich platform
Although there's a lot of crap there as well
Big screen and shit like that

isnt that just a 10 minute clip from the longer video we got last year?

@dense pond Honestly, you can trust CD Projekt, regardless the game willl be good even if it doesn't look as fancy.

I got battlefield V from the nvidia promo \o/
now i can turn on RTX
With what card?
Did you get a 2060?
2070
Ahh
plays quake 2 instead
the battlefield install is still only preparing
trim rock
Anyone playing Anthem?
willow quiver
they let me choose that one instead too
am i missing something?
is it fun, is what i mean
trim rock
If you like slaughtering mindless drones and getting loot sure why not

apparently my polling rate for my mosue is the issue
ripe tendon
is it low?
wheat kraken
honestly i'm sitting here and enjoying FCND.
Sure it's just Far Cry 5 with a modified map and new story but hell... I enjoyed FC5
ripe tendon
weird, mines 1k and no stuttering. What a weird bug
willow quiver
if you can set the polling rate to 500
makes vry little difference
and not necessarily a negative one
ripe tendon
@wheat kraken did FCND keep co-op and if so is it still tethered?
wheat kraken
sure
toxic hill
What does that mean
wheat kraken
I'll take the bFV key

ripe tendon
There a bundle with BFV?

ripe tendon
nice maybe i can get one cheap on indiegameswap

BFV is pretty good, honestly. I generally feel very bad in shooters, but the Gameplay in BFV was very fun for me.

Yo @willow quiver I see that TSM logo, you watching katowice?
willow quiver
ok, got far cry new dawn now, let's see my cpu suffer to test out that gsync-compatablility
hek, game runs much better than the previous one
bleak pike
Far cry 5 ran great lol
willow quiver
part 5 is the worst one yet
keen urchin
What's the current AMD bundle? Division 2, Devil May Cry 5 and Resident Evil 2?
Or something?
willow quiver
yea
keen urchin
Those any good?
willow quiver
you can choose 2 for the 570 and 580
and take all 3 for the vega cards and 590
idk
keen urchin
Choose 2 is as good as getting all 3, lol
bleak pike
If amd and wanna share love I'll take DMC5 XD
keen urchin
I got something nice Thursday, but still gonna be away until Sunday or Monday 😑
bleak pike
lmao
Alpha anthem i remember saying, ye its cool we get to play some story and cutscenes
but damn its really shit
must be down to no context later on
Nope, literally the begining of the game lmfao
trim rock
I've played a bunch of it now and yeah I'm not sure what happened during these 7 years
Most of the missions are just really basic fly here and kill these guys and use key these objects repeat 3x
sometimes it's spiced up a bit with some simple puzzles
And then you kill everything too fast so the dialogues can't keep up and then sometimes it's just a minute of just standing there while nothing happens until finally some dialogue and mission complete or go to this place next
lone sequoia
😦
trim rock
Also what's the point in freeplay mode forcing a full squad if all the players are just gonna run off on their own and do their own thing
trim rock
Pointless? Freeplay? Gotta do it to progress the story I think
trim rock
Yeah I think SSD is mandatory for this game and even then it's not great
bleak pike
Ye I can feel the difference
Don't wanna waste space tho 😄 I don't plan on buying
Why? Because most of the time it allows you to play the game without buying tbh
hollow sphinx
Lol
bleak pike
A lot of alphas pretty much expose nearly the entire game
Weras betas
Lock everything
Sea of theives for example I was okay for 7 months before it came out
Entire game
Plus it's nice to see see development first hand
Not always
Honestly not always
Usually it's the bugger companies this becomes apparent
hollow sphinx
Lol
bleak pike
*bigger
Sea of theives was pretty damn smooth if buggy not ones that make an impact
To you maybe
But I had hundreds of hours
I loved it
And it was nice I was with the same crew for months during testing
Sadly it got easier, early on ir was kinda hard
trim rock
Wait how did it get easier? I don't remember much of the early days
trim rock
Were they tho?
bleak pike
Your genuinely be scared about skeles
trim rock
I was only scared about how shitty the combat system always was
bleak pike
How far back did you play tho
I'm on about super super super early
When there wasn't even much in the game
trim rock
July 2017 is when they invited me
bleak pike
About 7 months before closed beta
Skeletons were legit aimbots too
This loading is just killing me
trim rock
MMmhhh I only have to crank out 2 more world events...
trim rock
Also in all this time I've played I've not heard a single player
bleak pike
original metro ahs not aged well
keen urchin
Anthem isn't that great? Sucks...
sleek gorge
I don't remember SoT being hard, but I also didn't play it for more than a few days
Also yes, anthem sucks. Its so damn boring
keen urchin
Usually I like some good PvE just for the sake of it
So far I did like the gameplay after 5 hours
Lol
I guess I'll stick with Apex or go back to ESO
Which was so damn boring
I miss DAoC
bleak pike
My brain hurt reading that
gaunt lance
agree
dire shuttle
are the missions in anthem as bland as it seems? the gameplay seems cool but as far as i saw the missions... they were worse than a korea grind mmorpg
idk if the story helps a bit there but... yeah?
also, any "puzzles" or at least "jumping puzzles" or is it just shooting in your mecha suit
ripe tendon
There is at least 1 "puzzle" but apart from that I know very little
Also fuck EA for offering subbers a week early access over people who pre-ordered, that's fucked up
trim rock
It is yeah
Fly to objective kill these mindless drones use key this thing kill this boss rinse repeat

There were some games during peak time where you'd move in almost slow-motion, kinda funny
small comet
still dont understand why apex crashes with the texture budget set to insane
keen urchin
What GPU do you have?
uneven trench
driver issue?
keen urchin
RAM issue? VRAM issue?
keen urchin
Maybe not enough vram or system ram
keen urchin
It might be that 11GiB vram is not enough
small comet
its just so random
sometimes it happens while dropping sometimes while playing
sometimes it doesnt happen at all
bleak pike
I stutter a lot in apex
I have random issues too
@small comet is it running on an ssd? What cpu?
small comet
i7-9700k
and normal hdd
doesnt stutter
just crash with a directx exception
otherwise it runs super
just remembered that i got BO4 for free
4 months after getting the hardware
keen urchin
Well, the game seems to have issues with Nvidia cards in general
uneven trench
I have some crashes/bsod with my 1070 on Apex
lone sequoia
lots of people are getting the DEVICE_HUNG thing, but I haven't heard anything about BSODs
bleak pike
@keen urchin pretty sure source has always had a boner for amd cards
hushed iris
eh idk if it's that, or source engine just doesn't make micro-optimizations for nvidia
there could simply be something that source is doing that's technically correct, but that every other engine is "fixing" for nvidia cards
uneven trench
2 crashes (freeze mid game and force closes)
1 BSOD of which i cant remmeber the code
bleak pike
Apex anyone?

My friend makes the highest difficultly look easy
He doesn't feel like it's challenging
So he used custom songs
scenic zodiac
at which resolution?
keen urchin
2560x1440, almost lowest settings though
Haven't changed them from what I used with the 290X yet
Well, low, except mid Textures and no Downsampling, I think
scenic zodiac
with 16 gb 1tb/s vram you can afford high textures i believe 😄
keen urchin
Yeah
I'm actually surprised
I thought the CPU will crap out long before 140
Although that was training
Not sure how much of that carries over into an actual match
bleak pike
@keen urchin it's a source game, runs fine, the issue is usually stuttering etc
keen urchin
Insane Textures works flawlessly
bleak pike
Also has a boner for amd cards
keen urchin
Why, though?
willow quiver
it' source, it always had, most games have a low enougfh harddware requirement so that the gpu makes almost no difference
interestingly BFV seems to favor AMD cards
hard enought that the vega 56 can outperform a 1080
willow quiver
and temps?
willow quiver
and I think the board aprtners don't as well, which leads them aways fro mcustom designs
wait
with 28k you'D be a whole lot higher than even a 2080ti
like 8k points higher
wait nvm
keen urchin
My GPU score is good, my CPU score really poor, I think
Well, stock and crap, after all
willow quiver
@keen urchin you know about an ARES II with waterblock?
and would be interested in buying one?
keen urchin
What's that
willow quiver
waterblock as in open loop
keen urchin
Google gives me crap, lol
willow quiver
i know
teh ares III came with an ek waterblock
and the ARES II with an asetek aio
my borther has an ares II with a waterblock though
and apparently it came with one originally
problem for him is that he currently can't afford another system, especially one with an open loop
keen urchin
Was it 10 full rotations, or just a single quick movement?
For me it read like they just calculated the speed in rotations per second
Firestrike seems to be well enough optimised, lol

3k rpm? daym that should be loud

And doesn't bother me much
Running it at 1305MHz, the fan uses the same RPM as idle

Hey, is there a way to get analog to properly work with rainbow six? When I try it currently I can't use my mouse at the same time as the analog.
orchid prism
Pretty sure no.
willow quiver
Has anybody tried using those mouse -> xbox/ps4 adapters in combination with a wooting on a pc?
scenic zodiac
has anyone tried Woothing in Anthem?
bleak pike
@scenic zodiac yes, my wooting tried to kill itself out of boredom
scenic zodiac
its a bit repetitive and unnecessary loading screens are killing me, but i have fun still 😉
should not cost nearly as much as it does tho
bleak pike
Would anyone know any reasonable ways to try and bypass fingerprint sensors? in my project im trying to look at current methods of mobile security knowing its pretty secure but i need some old/new methods of bypassing it.
Just to show i have tried
and apparently i put this in the wrong channel
scenic zodiac
try to shock it with piezo from lighter ;P
bleak pike
I'll have to admit, all these connection issues people are having with anthem I haven't had
bleak pike
Swear to god the 10 hours you get a majority of it is loading times
It's a conspiracy
scenic zodiac
Metro Exodus got cracked (remember to buy if you liked the game)
scenic zodiac
id buy it on steam launch, if i would like it ofc
bleak pike
@scenic zodiac downloaded \o/
little turtle
Anyone know if there is a way to get Resident Evil 2 remake to work with both pad and mouse ? it's locked to one or the other and blocks mouse inputs if you're using a pad , getting wooting two soon and this would stop me from having analog movement as i wont be able to use the mouse
scenic zodiac
i dont see reason to use analog in this game, but if engine blocks both inputs there is not much you can do about it
little turtle
anolog movement isn't that big of deal for this game but it would have been nice to use with my new keyboard also wouldn't be nice to know there was a work around for games that block the other control don't really understand why the dev's would force this
doesn't rainbow six do this too ?
keen urchin
Just saw that as well, actually works, lol
Game is driving me nuts, though
Randoms CTDs since changing the graphics card, didn't have issues before
ripe tendon
First few days I played it felt fluid and great and now it feels iffy a lot
keen urchin
Wifey got the same card, runs 100% stable
ripe tendon
Done a complete driver wipe?
keen urchin
Reinstalled the game, Origin, DDUed the driver again and reinstalled it, did all the fixes on the web, nothing works
ripe tendon
ah
probably some weird ass little bit of software from something she doesn't use that's like nah screw you
keen urchin
Card passes Time Spy and Firestike Stress test with 99.8%
ripe tendon
or some other piece of hardware maybe
keen urchin
Only other thing that's new and she doesn't use is that FiiO K3
That's weird and going back
Maybe a faulty unit, or driver issues
