#

I'm gonna wait like another year and buy up some PS4 games. They're too damn expensive atm

bleak pike
#

Would rather get it on epic

small comet
#

id rather buy bl3 on a console than epic

#

they can fuck off with their exlusivity shit

ripe tendon
#

Exclusive is a weird term for that imo

#

It's on pc

bleak pike
#

@sleek gorge just jailbreak like I did XD

willow quiver
#

it's exclusive

small comet
#

they are exclusives cause u can only get them on epic for the pc version

willow quiver
#

helps nobody

sleek gorge
#

Exclusively on the epic store tho

small comet
#

which makes it exclusive

willow quiver
#

won't buy it from them

small comet
#

same

ripe tendon
#

Still on pc

small comet
#

so?

ripe tendon
#

Irrelevant

willow quiver
#

has 0% extra developing costs

small comet
#

so no pc game can be exclusive

bleak pike
#

Oh my

willow quiver
#

won't buy it from them

bleak pike
#

Oh my

sleek gorge
#

Don't you need a console with certain firmware to jailbreak?

#

Also, does it work on the pro

small comet
#

why jailbreak?

bleak pike
#

Correct and correct

willow quiver
#

I have no problem paying for games

small comet
#

ill play bl3 on it and when it comes to steam i will sell the shit anyway

bleak pike
#

I ain't paying £40 for 20fps game

small comet
#

and i wont pay 40€ to fuel exclusivity shit on epic

sleek gorge
#

Yeah console games are very expensive compared to what I'm used to paying for a game

#

Even used they're pretty steep

bleak pike
#

Then torrent it

fringe salmon
#

aight you guys enjoy talking around this again I'll be back in 5 hours vvHide

hushed iris
#

@bleak pike yes

bleak pike
#

Buy when it comes out on steam

hushed iris
#

sorry had to scroll way the fuck up

small comet
#

"torrent it" ya cause it will get cracked right away

bleak pike
#

It will

sleek gorge
#

I mean maybe yeah

bleak pike
#

No denuvo

small comet
#

no denuvo means jack

bleak pike
#

It does

#

Lol

small comet
#

look at the windows xpa games

#

they havent been cracked usually

sleek gorge
#

I mean stranger things have happened. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it was cracked within days of release

small comet
#

and they dont use denuvo

bleak pike
#

It's not a uwp game

#

Lol

small comet
#

so? it just means that denuvo is crap

bleak pike
#

Only uwp and denuvo are issues

small comet
#

it gets hyped so much and if the groups really want to they can fuck denuvo easily

#

this was shown times and times again

bleak pike
#

Do you know anything about the cracking scene at all?

#

Do you even know why uwp is such an issue?

small comet
#

ive seen enough denuvo first week cracks

bleak pike
#

Yes but you clearly don't know the context

small comet
#

denuvo only gets fucky if u have vmprotect aswell or some shit

bleak pike
#

Day one or week one cracks are down to months and months of cracking a previous game with a denuvo ver

#

Once denuvo is updated it means months more

#

Some games are made with older denuvo hence fast crack

#

But games like assassins creed use both denuvo and vmprotect

#

Borderlands isn't using denuvo as far as we know

#

And most likely it will be an older version

small comet
#

literally what i just said but ok

#

go on

bleak pike
#

No you act like denuvo is useless, I'm explaining why there are such quick cracks and what causes slow cracks

small comet
#

denuvo itself is useless

#

for the price u pay

#

its garbage

#

at least if the leaked costs for denuvo are real

bleak pike
#

It works well once they make a new version and protects games for quite some time..., I think in publishers eyes that's good but once that version is cracked it's useless

#

Of course I'm heavily against denuvo

#

Also devil may cry wasn't cracked

#

Also finally borderlands loot system.....

small comet
#

which dmc

bleak pike
#

5

small comet
#

was cracked

bleak pike
#

No, the none denuvo exe was leaked

small comet
#

counts as cracked in the scene

#

game is playable

bleak pike
#

It doesn't at all

#

Crack scene has rules and standards etc

#

But my point is

small comet
#

ik that they have standards yet the release isnt nuked yet

#

weird

bleak pike
#

That version of denuvo wasn't cracked

#

And why it was so fast

small comet
#

anyway denuvo is only really good in combination with vmprotect imo

#

and uwp also only holds up cause its like 3 gazillion drm layers

#

from what ive heard

bleak pike
#

On the topic of denuvo

#

They censored the wiki lol

small comet
#

as in wikipedia?

bleak pike
#

Ye

small comet
#

what did they censor?

ripe tendon
#

Fucking love the new tediore weapons

bleak pike
#

Removed all mention of cracked versions etc

#

Scenes etc

small comet
#

shouldnt that be easily reversable

bleak pike
#

No it's been locked etc

small comet
#

what

bleak pike
#

The wiki page

small comet
#

why

#

like

#

thats not how wikipedia works

bleak pike
#

Probably denuvo abusing shit

willow quiver
#

wasn't that hard to find

small comet
#

ya but the fuck why would anyone be able to lock wiki pages

#

isnt that more a special right

#

for special users

willow quiver
#

well

#

if they argue that it could bankrupt them it will get removed

small comet
#

what

#

its like 1 google search away to find out what games are cracked

#

independant of wikipedia

willow quiver
#

ik

small comet
#

and id say everyone in the industry knows it

#

so

#

basically trash argument

bleak pike
#

Space travel oml

#

im exited

#

they are revealing to much but i cant stop watching >.>

fringe salmon
#

they are buying Pysonic completely though and not just the game, wonder if there is more to it

#

and the most purchases of a game are in the first days/weeks/months of it usually, so it seems like a really strange move to me

bleak pike
#

@orchid prism epic still good?

orchid prism
ripe tendon
#

if you haven't bought RL by late 2019 though what are the odds you ever would?

#

that's a small group of people, I feel

fringe salmon
#

looks like Psyonix has been working on a new game on the side, if thats the case the purchase from epic makes more sense now

wheat kraken
#

I saw satisfactory and kinda wanna play it but really don't want to deal with epic because it's mega lame

fringe salmon
#

See if it’s on humble bundle, I know metro exodus and BL3 are, idk about satisfactory

wheat kraken
#

nope

#

they have some balls

hollow sphinx
#

starcitizen looks amazing
but
im torn on actualy buying it
i sort of have to learn by trial and error
lots of error
since there is really no tutorial
wooting analog is going to be amazing
but its like.....no where near done
and this is all in the wrong channel

willow quiver
#

Wait

#

Can I choose who to pay in the normal humble store?

frigid stratus
#

@wheat kraken I don't even care if even Total Biscuit comes back from the dead and gives it a positive review despite what Epic is doing. I refuse to support Epic simply because of what they've been doing.

sleek gorge
#

star citizen
Wheeze

#

Predictably so

#

Still, bit of an odd one

keen urchin
#

Maybe I should stop caring about games and play Factorio forever

#

Or go back to Civ 2 and Dune 2000

ripe tendon
#

If you can find something that holds your interest go for it

#

I install like 30 games a week and play none of them then just uninstall because I can't get in the mood for anything

willow quiver
#

rip me

#

finally found a game to play (persona 3) and then the batteries in my controller die

#

of course I didn't have any replacement batteries to use

ripe tendon
#

you don't run rechargeable?

willow quiver
#

xbox 360 controller

#

and no

#

I rarely used it in the past

ripe tendon
#

I used to go through so many batteries I decided to make the jump and couldn't go back

willow quiver
#

so I rarely have to swap batteries

ripe tendon
#

either a rechargeable pack or rechargeable AA/AAA

willow quiver
#

ik

#

rechargeable packs are trash imo

#

rechargeable AAs would be my choice

#

they hold so little charge though

ripe tendon
#

I've had decent luck with 1 pack and my AA's last a fair bit. I got the amazon brand

#

keep 1 pack on charge while you use the other

willow quiver
#

the Ikea ones are supposed to be the best btw

ripe tendon
#

I've never shopped Ikea. That surprises me though

willow quiver
#

I don't know their oem, seems to be a very high quality one

keen urchin
#

I got some black Panasonic eneloop pro

#

Those are pretty good, too

willow quiver
#

I could get a charger for ~18€

keen urchin
#

930 mAh on the AAA

willow quiver
#
  • 4 cells for ~10
#

they are 2450 btw

keen urchin
#

2500 mAh for the AA

willow quiver
#

in AA

#

maximum capacity isn't everythign though

keen urchin
#

True

willow quiver
#

and getting a good charger is important

keen urchin
#

I'd probably get Li batteries for more constant use

willow quiver
#

btw has anyone tried the vita emulator?

ripe tendon
#

Oh shit I didn't notice you could mod guns on BL3 with barrels and grips and shit

#

and nah, never tried the vita emulator

fringe salmon
#

@wheat kraken you know that there are 3 BL 3 price bundles and they are all on humble and cost the same as on epic?

willow quiver
#

btw, is there any official data on how the cut is handled in the humble store

fringe salmon
#

Yes Tim Sweeney mentioned it afaik but can’t search it rn bc I’m on phone

#

Iirc it’s just like normal humble games where you decide the distribution

#

But don’t quote me on that

ripe tendon
#

You decide on non-bundle purchases?

#

afaik you can just do a 10% split to charity or you wallet

willow quiver
#

if I could give 0% cut to epic I might consider dogelul

ripe tendon
#

like that would ever be a thing

fringe salmon
ripe tendon
#

I'm skeptical that they get 0%.

willow quiver
#

would still have to dual boot windows though

#

or run it in a windows shell or something

#

maybe secondary pc thonk

fringe salmon
#

Nah they absolutely get 0, valve gets nothing and for epic it’s definitely worth bc it gets more users to their launcher

willow quiver
#

tbh I wouldn't buy directly from them

#

don't want them to get user data to sell though

ripe tendon
#

It's the internet. Unless you have 0 presence your data is out there

willow quiver
#

tbh I don't care about the data itself

fringe salmon
#

You can buy on humble and use fake data for your profile, so epic won’t get anything from you, imo there’s no point in waiting for steam release/ getting console for it now

willow quiver
#

I just don't want epic to make a profit off of that

#

they'd get the data as soon as their store is on my pc though

fringe salmon
#

No they won’t, that popular reddit post was false bc the idiot mistook the program he used to see if epic spy’s on you for epic launcher data

willow quiver
#

they still get user data

ripe tendon
#

Doesn't basically everything anymore?

willow quiver
#

and are likely allowed to sell them, as every company is

#

ik

ripe tendon
#

it doesn't really matter to me but I love reading facebook comments about epic selling data. That's my favorite 😂

willow quiver
#

well, they are allowed to

#

valve is too

#

as pretty much every company is

ripe tendon
#

I just like how it's people with a facebook profile

willow quiver
#

it's how they do it though

#

ik

#

storing userdata in china is illegal though

ripe tendon
#

Not happy about BL3's super deluxe edition being the only one with the season pass though

willow quiver
#

tbh I don't care

#

I am ready to pay a lot for that game

ripe tendon
#

It's a game you'll at least get your moneys worth unlike some

fringe salmon
#

I am glad the limited collectors edition is only for console or I would’ve gotten that already rooCoffeeShake

willow quiver
#

tbh I thought about gettign a used ps4 pro for that game

#

as well as for persona 5r

#

but wanted to wait until release to get one

#

as it already is confrimed that sony censors persona 5r

fringe salmon
#

Im so mad about P5S

willow quiver
#

and they already were quite unhappy about some stuf in the original version

fringe salmon
#

Everyone thought it’s a switch port

willow quiver
#

ik

#

same

#

gonna likely emulate ps3 though

#

what I really hate is p4 golden

#

as it is vita only

fringe salmon
#

Ya on the vita like wtf

willow quiver
#

or the ps4tv

#

the 2 worst consoles ever made from sony

#

"consoles"

#

and vita emulation is basically non present

#

afaik the vita emulator has 6 supported games and demos

#

btw how different are the ps2 and ps3 versions of p4?

fringe salmon
#

No idea

wheat kraken
#

I'll Yarr harr BL3 if I can until it's on steam. If not. I'll wait. If it never comes to steam, I'll watch someone else play it.

willow quiver
#

also an option

#

I'm gonna personally wait until after the launch to get it in any way

ripe tendon
#

I'll possibly get it on both. Maybe I can talk the wife into playing it with me once she gets free time or use the steam version to gameshare with somebody and do co-op again

fringe salmon
#

Don’t need to have it on the same platform to play coop

ripe tendon
#

yeah I use epic and they use steam

#

for my poor/cheap friends I mean

#

who are also late to the game

wheat kraken
#

If it weren't for the fact I don't own a next gen console and the fact I want to have all my PC options, I'd almost be tempted to buy the fucker on PS4 or something

fringe salmon
#

Ye wasn’t sure if you wanted to buy it on steam for coop from that statement

ripe tendon
#

even if they have splitscreen I'd never do that with the wife. It's hard to watch her play 😛

fringe salmon
#

Idk you can buy it now without giving epic a penny for it from the sale so consoles arguments aren’t valid for me rooShrug

wheat kraken
#

Still have to use the epic launcher and have an epic account

fringe salmon
#

Put in fake data for your account rooShrug

wheat kraken
#

still have to use launcher

fringe salmon
#

If you’re lucky only for installing it, since they most likely use the Shift system for multiplayer there’s a chance they won’t give a shit about using epic store as drm

wheat kraken
#

So my last issue is mostly about whatever the CEO's name is being a cunt online and trying to play himself off as the victim because "The Internet Trolls"

fringe salmon
#

Sure if you want to care about what Randy tweets and thus want to limit yourself to play on console to spite him, go for it, idc enough to argue about that

wheat kraken
#

Plus I'm not ready to drop 60$ on a game. So that's my biggest reason for not buying it.

fringe salmon
#

We’re lucky they are still at only 60 for AAA games but sure, that is a valid point if it doesn’t work for you

bleak pike
#

ugh BL3 has micro cancertractions

fringe salmon
#

its not for weapons/exp etc. and they had the same thing basically already in previous games?

bleak pike
#

cosmetic

fringe salmon
#

yes

bleak pike
#

its a single player game for god sake

fringe salmon
#

like BL2 already had it so idk why it's a surprise lol

#

and nobody cared about it there

ripe tendon
#

and this time around we get weapon skins so it's something we can actually see as the player during gameplay

#

apart from just others seeing it

bleak pike
#

i thought them packs were new characters etc

ripe tendon
#

have you played borderlands?

bleak pike
#

yes

ripe tendon
#

and you thought those were new characters?

fringe salmon
#

that part I showed is only cosmetics, I left out the characters dlcs

bleak pike
#

No i mean the dlc for borderlands was new characters, i never messed around with cosmetics

ripe tendon
#

right so you didnt even acknowledge them so it won't be much diff from BL3

hollow sphinx
#

@bleak pike is Star citizen worth a buy?

#

I really like it....

bleak pike
#

no

#

@ripe tendon fair point

trim rock
#

Star Citizen might be worth a buy in the future, but right now not really.. I'm saying that as an original backer

bleak pike
#

@trim rock Sorry for your loss

trim rock
#

Oh no I put in the bare minimum of like 28 € the horror!

small comet
#

isnt starcitizen basically just elite dangerous but worse?

#

at least rn

ripe tendon
#

its the infinite early access space sim

hollow sphinx
#

@trim rock it has a free-to-play thing on right now until May 9th

#

So I got to have a little bit of fun

trim rock
#

Yeah I know

hollow sphinx
#

But the sad thing is I was left to figure out everything on my own

#

Which meant crashing a couple of times

trim rock
#

😃

hollow sphinx
#

Surprisingly the game runs really well

#

And I didn't experience any major bugs

#

But it's really hard to fly anywhere due to the fact that you have to set your destination on the map and sometimes the map doesn't load

#

But it's right up my alley of what I want to do in a game

#

Actually... I experienced a major bug... I entered a racing ship and it was moving without me touching the keyboard

#

It would sporadically move and overheat

#

Thankfully somebody destroyed me giving me a fast way back to The landing pad

#

@trim rockmy sole reason for backing it is that if I do choose to buy into it will have an account some sort of early backers reward and I'll get that too

#

But I just don't know since it's quite the puzzle right now

#

And you sort of have to learn how to do anything yourself since there's no tutorial

trim rock
#

I don't think they do a lot of those anymore

hollow sphinx
#

Do you have to run around other planets to buy ships?

#

I want to try Elite first before I buy

#

So if I even want to try it i have to torrent it

trim rock
#

Yeah as far as I know it's online only

bleak pike
hollow sphinx
#

OH NO

#

welp

#

go in and pray for the best

#

hop u dont get stuck in limbo

bleak pike
#

@hollow sphinx I did

hollow sphinx
#

And how'd that work out for you

bleak pike
#

Really bad

#

And long

hollow sphinx
#

XD

#

nice mistake

#

ive made it a few times

#

though the reward is good....if you live through it

bleak pike
#

Didn't get much from it except diamonds

#

We were in there for an hour

That was very good

This is a long article

ripe tendon
#

Blops 4 is the next monthly early unlock if anybody is into that kinda thing

fringe salmon
#

early unlock?

ripe tendon
#

yah

#

like you get it now

#

and the rest in June

#

humble bundle's early unlock

fringe salmon
#

ah humble

#

NOOO YOU BAITED ME

#

it doesnt have the zombies mode

#

like the only thing I want

ripe tendon
#

they call the mp only battle edition 😂

#

of course they do because fucking activision

fringe salmon
#

well its mp and blackout

#

if that thing is even still alive

willow quiver
ripe tendon
#

blackout is fun to troll but as a BR its kinda shit

wheat kraken
#

great bops4

fringe salmon
#

if it would be the zombies part without mp/blackout would be amazing rooFeels

wheat kraken
#

^ ikr

#

literally the fucking only reason I'd play it

#

anyone want this?

fringe salmon
#

define this

bleak pike
#

@fringe salmon mate if you wanna play zombies

#

you can have my login

#

lol

fringe salmon
#

well I'd want to play it with a friend who also doenst have it, so we'd need 2 lol

#

@bleak pike is Satisfactory worth it?

bleak pike
#

not yet

wheat kraken
#

Ok

keen urchin
#

@wheat kraken Factorio is worth it, though 😄

bleak pike
#

@wheat kraken plays Ftb tbh

small comet
#

factorio is more worth it cause steam Kappa

orchid prism
#

Satisfactory is good for a lot of hours imo.

#

But of course Factorio has had a LOT more time to add features and reach a 1.0 finished state. I suggest both but for different reasons.

Also expect to have a good PC to run Factorio 3D 😄

bleak pike
#

its a good game, but honestly i just feel like its over so fast

#

i truly love it

#

but it ends so fast

raw wren
#

@willow quiver Oh yeah, they will be porting it to their store in late 2019

ripe tendon
#

Didn't one of the RL devs claim it RL would be unaffected on Steam?

fringe salmon
#

they said it will still recieve support on it for players who have it on steam

ripe tendon
#

Doesn't much make sense to remove it from Steam really. I can't imagine it would be making them a lot of money from sales since it's a been out a while

fringe salmon
#

it'll still give epic some more users which is what they are after

#

no point for them to not do it if they own the studio now

fading spade

No Pay2Win, no Gacha, no Lootboxes and no daily logins. Get rewarded for winning, not for losing. Spend your XP and loot to unlock filthier sex scenes.

fading dew
#

Regarding Rocket League, they apparently don't plan to completely remove it from Steam - just remove it from sale. At least for now. Who knows how long they'll keep the Steam version supported, though

#

And speaking of Factorio, what does the LED support in it even do? lol

fading spade
#

Led support reminds me of how the lights on Alienware computers reacts to supported games

#

It's the reason mine came with metro last night

#

Light**

hollow sphinx
#

i hope epic games does end

#

this is garbage

fading dew
#

Agreed

fringe salmon
#

dont think they'll end steam support since its barely any additional work

fading dew
#

Epic seems hell-bent on beating out EA for the title of Worst Company

#

(they still have a ways to go before that, but calling it now... inb4Psyonix gets closed down/absorbed within 2-3 years)

fringe salmon
#

psyonix has been working on another game which is my guess on why they bought the entire company

#

instead of just the releases

#

and RL started out as an Unreal Tournament mod too

fading dew
#

RL is also quite the money printer

fringe salmon
#

idk, never played it

#

not my type of game

hollow sphinx
#

well

#

they want more money for the devs

#

that much is clear

fringe salmon
#

I just hope none of the indie devs that decline end up regretting bc they miscalculated

fading dew
#

Nah they don't care about "hurting customers" .. they see that siding with Epic will hurt their wallet and get them only bad press

fringe salmon
#

epic deal at least gives them monetary safety for the team

#

yea all the arguments about "oh this company cares about buyers" also was weird to me, bc everyone only does that because it benefits them

fading dew
#

There's a difference between "we care that it hurts customers because our customers matter to us" and "we care that it hurts customers because that means they're less willing to throw money at us". The latter is more likely the thought process with many larger publishers. The devs or self-published ones are the ones more likely to both say AND mean the former

fringe salmon
#

eh, they still need money, especially at an indie level you dont have saftey nets if it doesnt work out

fading dew
#

True, but those devs also know that pissing off their still-small fanbase is a great way to go bankrupt in a hurry

fringe salmon
#

then just do a timed exclusive deal that is less than a year

#

well, depends on the game, for multiplayers games that wouldn't be ideal still

fading dew
#

That still pisses the fanbase off, as nobody likes dealing with Epic

fringe salmon
#

ye but how much of them actually dont get it then, or how many of potential buyers are vocal about it etc. all just a guessing game for us mostly

#

also depends, BL3 will be making multiplayers via their shift system bc it's a crossplatform game

#

so in taht case it wont make a difference

fading dew
#

The Epic store doesn't even have a cart

fringe salmon
#

if we are talking about RL for the workshop, at least the mod support is on the roadmao for the mid/end of this year, so might be no issue

fading dew
#

Carts are e-commerse 101

#

There's also their plan for dev opt-in reviews.. so a dev can keep user reviews turned off so that people browsing the store can't see the game is 1 out of 10 and be tricked into buying it via misleading screenshots/videos

#

It's far more visible when that happens, though

fringe salmon
#

I mean if reviews are off in a store that has them, that's more reason for me to look up the game before I thinkg about buying it

fading dew
#

No system will be, but having a system is still better than not. And Epic currently doesn't, with their future plans being "if the dev wants it" .. which many might not

fringe salmon

I usually ignore steam reviews completely

fading dew
#

You still can. It's opt-out

#

Yeah, there's a setting to disable the filter affecting your view of the score. Either way you still see the bomb

#

Account -> Preferences -> scroll down to Review Score Settings -> Edit Preferences

#

They only hide the bombing from the review score calculation anyway. You still saw the bomb reviews and the white asterisk saying it had been flagged as bombed, it just didn't drop the score

fringe salmon
#

and it didnt work on the borderlands bombing so idk if it does work for any game automatically lmao

trim rock
#

? it did

fringe salmon
#

yes after 2 days or so after they manually did it

fading dew
#

iirc it flags for manual review by Valve staff before it takes effect

#

In case the system thinks it's a bomb but it's actually a legitimate "they fucked up hard" moment and is a justified plummet of the score

trim rock
#

Yeah

fringe salmon
#

I mean it was extremely negative bombing on multiple games that all didn't get a single change when it happend for quite some time

#

that shouldn't take multiple days to be detected

fading dew
#

It was probably detected by day 2, but might've not been able to be reviewed until 3. I dunno what the minimum period of time for it to count as bomb rather than just a long string of negatives, or the threshhold for negative review count before it's flagged. I think the BL3 BS was the first time the system had been put into action, so it might have been tweaked since then

fringe salmon
#

nah the metro stuff happend before and the bombing thing was in work there already and worked for that iirc

fading dew
#

Was it? I thought the bomb system came after Metro

#

I don't think they applied it retroactively

trim rock
#

Actually they've been working on filtering out bombings since 2017

fading dew
#

But this particular system hasn't been in place

I want this game but my PC is shit and I cant afford VR

WOAH

i fucking love VR and technology as a whole

#

I only had one VR playthrough IRL

#

that was a 5 minute long superhot session at the anime convention

they had beat saber but their custom maps would not work after forced updates

this game is boring and stressful

wheat kraken
#

1000$ for the index full kit

trim rock
#

1079 € 😃

wheat kraken
#

Those are with the knuckle controllers, boxes, headset.

fading spade
#

isnt a single controller like 400?

wheat kraken
#

Try a set for 275$

#

Original Oculus (According to Callum) and it's probably 400$ for a full set.

The new Oculus S or whatever it is (Not the quest) is 500$ (?)

#

The release model. Not the dev kit

fading spade
wheat kraken
#

But it requires 2 usb3 ports open on the comp for the sensors unless you buy a 3rd sensor.

#

Vive and Index uses boxes in the corners of the room.

fringe salmon
#

the oculus rift S is 450euro

#

which is the same I payed for my Rift last year

ripe tendon
#

I don't wanna give in to VR until we have the full experience (treadmills and all)and easier support for normal games, if ever

burnt badge
#

Youll be waiting a couple decades for that

#

And when it does come out you probably wont be able to afford it

ripe tendon
#

nah we'll be able to afford it

#

its the waiting that sucks

#

unless they charge like 50k or some ridiculous shit. I refuse to pay that kinda price

fringe salmon
#

well you can use the omni with vr, that's a treadmill thing

burnt badge
#

I estimate 10-15k

ripe tendon
#

10-15k would be doable pretty easily in a few years

#

Is the Omni still a thing? I thought it kinda died off

burnt badge
#

No

#

It would be worth how much 10-15k is worth now

ripe tendon
#

so unless that inflates to 50k or something crazy its doable

burnt badge
#

99% chance it will

#

In facr itll probably be more expensive

ripe tendon
#

I seriously doubt that lol

burnt badge
#

Remember

#

Youre talking about treadmills

#

And hand tracking

#

And probably haptic feedback

#

Thats going to be a lot

fringe salmon
#

yea but not even close to that ammount lmao

ripe tendon
#

I dont see haptic feedback becoming a thing we do mainstream anytime soon

#

so I'm not worried about that. I just want the movement more than anything

#

Also the fact that games are specific to headsets is stupid as fuck, imo

fringe salmon
#

that's just like xbox/ps4 exclusives, with the big difference that it's verrrrry easy to switch it from vive to rift if needed so that doesn't really hinder development

#

unless we get different advanced controllers and they refuse to use a similar/same api for them

ripe tendon
#

that'd be fine if the headset is what ran the games but with it being Pc I think that's a bullshit move

steam can ask them if they want a sale

but in the end the publisher decides if it happens

yeah otherwise steam would need to give them the money difference lol, they can't just decide your game costs less

same reason why old games often still cost full price when not on sale, steam isn't changing that for you'

gaunt lance
#

just use windows

fading spade
#

and subject myself to headaches for updates, nagging about what I can't do and not being able to change those horrible icons and font ?

#

I could add more reasons

#

Also the screen tearing was horrible on Windows

small comet
#

i mean

#

windows comes with a full linux kernel in 190X

#

so

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

but u can do everything that linux can

#

not the limited crap rn

#

should be able to

#

its the entire linux kernel thus u should be able to run anything exactly as if u had a linux pc

#

provided u install all the required things first

#

plus the way its going rn windows is becomming more and more open source

fading spade
#

I dot trust this either

#

Any person who may be interested in Linux now will just install it over windows
Not remove windows and do an actual Linux install

#

They will have that Microsoft controlled linux experience

small comet
#

its not really windows controlled tho

#

wls wasnt "windows controlled" either

#

was just debian/ubuntu/whateverotheros

#

ontop of a windows kernel

#

now they just want to give those distros the full range of functionallity including accessing the gpu etc

#

na ull always start with winui

#

and it will always run in the background

#

i mean if they continue open sourcing their shit the entire windows source code is on gh soon

#

like

#

more and more shit gets open sourced for whatever reason

#

like i said if the trend continues thats actually a possibility

#

id say prob windows will morph more and more into linux

#

and open source windows would reign king prob

fading spade
#

If that happens
Will they finally let us change the fucking don't?

#

Font**

#

It's so ugly

small comet
#

uk that u can already change the font right?

fading spade
#

I use Montserrat on Linux

#

You can't

small comet
#

i use the apple font renderer and font

fading spade
#

Yu can't from the settings

small comet
#

so

#

ure using linux

fading spade
#

You need a registry edit to make it chance

#

Change**

small comet
#

but complain about smth not being changeable in some settings

fading spade
#

True

#

And it doesn't work everywhere either

small comet
#

theres free programs that do 1 click

like

#

change font renderer and font

fading spade
#

It doesn't work on the clock or the dialog boxes

small comet
#

nothing hard about it

fading spade
#

How TF does one change the renderer?

#

Could you is the apple one on Linux?

#

Use*

small comet

prob

#

ngl apple has really good font rendering

like nice and sharp text

fading spade

@fading spade twooting doesnt support c to c

and i also made a converter board

but the twooting doesnt do it natively

u have to replace the receptical

if u call that possible then its also possible on the wooting 1

because the cable rocky made can be used on the wooting one

no its self made

Lolololololol

1fps? Payday runs amazing

small comet
#

ya only 120fps

#

how shit it runs

#

man

#

barely playable

#

i can get 120fps on highest settings easily with my i7-9700k and a 2080ti

remote yoke
#

Payday 2 ran great back in 2013

small comet
#

still does

remote yoke
#

Also i7 9700k + RTX 2080 Ti will get 120 FPS in a ton

#

so that ain't saying much

#

120 or more

small comet
#

the only way i can really tank it is with mutators like hydra and then setting the corpse limit to near infinite

#

@remote yoke well lets say my old i7-470ßk got 80fps + with both the r9 290x and the 1080ti

#

also on high settings not highest tho

remote yoke
#

I played it maxed out in 2015 at 2560 x 1440 120 FPS on whatever was the best hardware then, that was the last time I've played the game lol

small comet
#

ya i mean i never got more than 130 anyway

#

so idk if it might even be engine limited

cedar harbor
#

@dense pond Well that's what, a 6 or 7 year old processor? And unfortunately the 1050 ti isn't great. Kinda different to a 9700 k and 2080 ti.

#

But it's an old game so should run decently still. Something to do with your build could be bottlenecking it.

#

You might want to check the temperatures aren't spiking. If it is then and the CPU has been in there 7 years, taking off the cooler and applying some new thermal paste could help.

#

If you were getting 20-30 FPS I'd say it could be something else... As you're getting 1 FPS then that would hint to me some serious hardware temperature throttling.

fringe salmon
#

P2 also is running on a engine that's kinda thrown together and wasnt made for a game on it's scale and has always lacked optimization for lower end hardware

cedar harbor
#

The PC would have been pretty high end back when PD2 came out though.

cedar harbor
#

Yeah, I'd suspect the CPU first, being old and probably with crusty paste 😛

#

Have you ever overclocked anything on the PC?

#

Getting a slightly better cooler $25 or something. The coolermaster one is good.

#

And then overclocking that CPU could help a lot in general.

#

Why upgrade the cooler and not overclock?

#

Just use the stock cooler for non OC 😛

fringe salmon
#

FX stock cooler LUL3D

cedar harbor
#

Usually the stock coolers should be able to handle stock speeds at 100% use.

#

But I have no idea what the AMD processors are like for that.

#

Evo 212 should do great and keep it cool though, yeah 😃

#

But really you should be able to get it up to 4.4-4.5 or so.

fringe salmon
#

bit late to OC now with no funds if something breaks, now that warranty is a bit overdue

cedar harbor
#

Why not practice now on the cheaper one? lol

#

But they will thermal throttle if they overheat so the risk is really not actually there.

#

Check out some guides and videos online, at least then you can build up some knowledge about it. Should help you understand why it's not a risk.

#

And you can also look up your specific processor and what to do with it.

#

65 is not hot

#

CPUs throttle around 100-105.

#

Okay well I'm thinking Intel here.

#

Google for overclocked chip results for it to see what temps and speed you should expect.

remote yoke
#

A modern processor would be a massive upgrade to any FX

cedar harbor
#

Or don't. 😛 But it could be some free extra life you could get out of it.

fringe salmon
#

mid 60 temps on that chips caused people to get errors sometimes, it's not an i-series intel cpu lol

cedar harbor
#

Safe zone would probably be 4.4 then. There's somewhat of a lottery to what you get of course.

#

I didn't realise how bad some processors have it haha

#

I still have a 4790k.

#

Ah actually this isn't as old. 2014.

#

Yeah this is 4 cores. Hyperthreaded for two lanes.

fringe salmon
#

8 modules is the term used for bulldozer iirc

cedar harbor
#

Which isn't as good anymore anyway (since security vulnerabilities were patched to do with it)

#

I remember my paste job for my cooler wasn't great the first time I did it, ran really hot on one core.

#

Do double check the temps if you haven't recently as they can change over long times.

#

Past all of the above... Maybe there are driver issues too. Or maybe you're out of luck and it really is just not gonna get higher FPS 😛

#

Cool

#

(literally haha)

#

Burn it

#

ahah

#

Have to stick to Fortnite I guess.

Fortnite does get decent FPS though, last time I checked.

#

Only thing it's got going for it. 😛

remote yoke
#

id Tech 6 would like a word with you

cedar harbor
#

If your CPU is stuck at 100% all the time then it is the bottleneck.

remote yoke
#

that engine uses a fair amount of the latest and greatest tech

#

for the sake of optimization

fringe salmon
#

if it's running well for the target audience and you are outside of it, is that optimized or not?

cedar harbor
#

Mine just chills except when I play PUBG and the fan moans.

remote yoke
#

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus and Doom 2016 run much better than most 2000s games of the same scale on modern hardware, due to truly advanced optimization (among other things)

cedar harbor
#

That's handy.

remote yoke
#

Vulkan renderer, legit multithreading, async compute, FP16x2 shaders

cedar harbor
#

Anyway, just trying to give you some ideas to get a bit more juice out of the rig. 😃

#

I tend to whip my tech till it bleeds.

#

I really want to upgrade my CPU but it doesn't feel worth it.

remote yoke
#

True given the limitations of game design currently

cedar harbor
#

Stuff with a lot of players seems to hit CPU more usually.

remote yoke
#

Most games also have shite multithreading

cedar harbor
#

Or weird stuff like Dwarf Fortress, Factorio or VRChat.

#

Yup!

#

Also... Don't go buying fancy keyboards till you get that rig upgrade, haha.

#

It might on a 1050ti 😛

#

Yeah

fringe salmon
#

for TF2 every additional player also has barely any cloth/physics etc. that need to be done, models in R6 have much more stuff to them

#

Hidden Wooting Mode models?

#

ah the tf2 monster models lul

remote yoke
#

Play Rainbow Six 3 instead

#

That's the only Rainbow Six I play

#

Others play it

#

but yeah toxic idiots would get banned from any current server for that game

#

It's also absolutely nothing like Siege

#

One of the most hardcore shooters ever made along with its predecessor

cedar harbor
#

Anonymity.

remote yoke

Does using hacks count as being toxic?
