WOW
This is fucking dope
"Saw a camera crew going up to my neighbors house while I was loading stuff into my truck. My roommate recognized the guy being followed as Gaben, I didn't believe him, our other roommate then verified it was indeed Gabe. After delivering my neighbor's Deck, we yelled "Hi Gabe!". At which point he asked how many were living in the house, then he went back to his van and grabbed us each a Deck. Was also filmed receiving ours so I assume these will be used in some promo or online. Very cool day."

usb
feral ferry
USB 2.0? Perfectly serviceable
You got 3.1 if you need "bandwidth"
What's wrong with 2.0
The hell is this elitism against USB 2
feral ferry
You have 3.1 for that
Peripherals don't care for 2.0 or 3.0 or whatever USB you have
fringe salmon
why would you want more than one usb3 port on the dock when the deck only has one usb port
what kind of magic port does it have that one usb3 connection can handle more than its own bandwith lmao
fading spade
Deck only has one USB C port... which is fine maybe
fringe salmon
yes so why would you want more usb3 on the dock
fading spade
meh
fringe salmon
when it only has regular usb3 speed to the deck
feral ferry
Sounds like #LanaThings
Complain about something that doesn't need complaining about
fringe salmon
if you had 2 usb3 ports, that usb c port wouldnt be able to use it
it doesnt magically have more bandwidth than every other usb port
trim rock
Except...
fading spade
wait what
fringe salmon
trim rock
That's the current dock specs
fading spade
Where you see that?
trim rock
trim rock
USB-C with DisplayPort 1.4 Alt-mode support; up to 8K @60Hz or 4K @120Hz, USB 3.2 Gen 2

3.2 Gen 2 is pretty damn fast
fringe salmon
van gogh doesnt have usb4 support pretty sure
small comet
isnt remguy usb4
feral ferry
Rembrandt should defo support 4
fringe salmon
yes
feral ferry
Bruh
Wait, you couldn't pause it until now?
This whole time when I was playing it, I was under the impression ESC pauses the game
fringe salmon
never played a souls game eh?
feral ferry
No
I've watched a bunch of Dark Souls content for years
But Elden Ring is my first souls like that I ever played
fading spade
I wish that Valve has two USB C ports on the Deck
One at the top and the bottom
So the cable on the Dock wasnt needed
but you could use the top for handheld charging still
fading spade
Crusader Kings!
fading spade
small comet
my toaster can do that
fringe salmon
it can do exactly 1 thing
type c is just a connector spec, not the protocol that uses it
fading spade
but like in the case of the Switch or Deck docks
The Switch dock has ethernet and 3 USB ports all going into the console via one USB C
and even more for the Deck
fringe salmon
usb protocol does that, not the type c port
fringe salmon
type c by definition doesnt even have to implement usb
fading spade
o.o
fringe salmon
well yeah but lana clearly didn't
and I dont really like pretending everything is right when it's not the case 😛
fading spade
I do understand the USB C is onyl the shape of the port but its still awesome how all these ports can have their input sent throgh one USB C port at once

@orchid prism gabe newell is playing white mage btw
fringe salmon
in the video where he delivers steam decks one person mentions he plays ff, gaben asks what, guy palys dragoon and sometimes palading for queue times lmao
and he just replies with he's palying white mage
lol
fading spade
idk enough about FF to understand what this means
fringe salmon
it means gabe is playing the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, with an expanded free trial which you can play through the entirety of A Realm Reborn and the award winning Heavensward expansion up to level 60 for free with no restrictions on playtime.
fringe salmon
yes
im not writing a synopsis on them now lol, plenty of youtube videos if youre curious

not really.. xd I dont play MMORPGs

next updates even include that you can do the old dungeons with NPCs instead of other players

MSPORPG
feral ferry
I know right?
Why can't you pause the game? Does the game engine not allow for that?
ripe tendon
well obviously that's not the case if the mod allows it
it's just not how they work
they're not the first game series to do that though a few have done it
feral ferry
Yeaah, but what game design choice doesn't allow us to pause then
Exploits, glitches?
Idk, a bit of a confusing decision
ripe tendon
I mean graces/bonfires are safe spaces if utilized correctly so you could basically use that as a pause
fringe salmon
and you can quit to menu at any moment which resets enemy positions etc.
quite helpful for speedrunners
ripe tendon
elden ring has some fucking cheese encounters though
like teleporting me across the map in a tunnel where I have no idea where anything is
rude as hell.
but combat on torrent is cheesy too so I'm cheesin' my fair share of fights

oh I already did two of those, they only had what I needed to get to this point haha

idk who cares about meta aside from pvp

|| Top of first map, above Caelid, place's called something dragon, there is a quick teleport to that place next to one of the churches around middle-right of the map||
Technically that place is the hardest part of that map, highest level mobs and some ridiculously strong bosses

if you did some cave or boss in the overworld one of the npcs you can find marks a shortcut to that place for your to talk to one npc, otherwise I also wasnt in that are yet lol

If Apex can add support for Deck in EAC...Then FUCKING FORTNITE CAN TOO

people be getting free games and shit on that

then theyd isolate deck into its own platform

Nope 😅 just roaming only killing stuff in the open world but no evergaols or most bosses yet haha
novel umbra
uh yea
the optional bosses and areas
are stupid easy
in comparison to the main bosses and the areas around them
though imo the first one is harder than the second one
also be aware that you can access seemingly very late game stuff
VERY early
ripe tendon
oh I know lol. I actually like that. I fought Margit or w/e once or twice then went around that area and just started exploring everything
ripe tendon
this is all I've uncovered so far of the map
Might not be any of the real late game stuff but definitely some things I wasn't ready for within these areas
feral ferry
the optional bosses and areas
Except the fucking erdtree chimera that was guarded by 4 goblins that can fuck right off
Those goblins are beyond cancerous
feral ferry
I always found weird that Souls games have no difficulty slider
Cause honestly, I think it needs an easy mode
ripe tendon
haven't seen a chimera yet but I've seen two erdtree things with the big golden hammer/staff
avatar* is what I saw
I love the counter advice on wikis "keep moving until there are no more" 😂
fringe salmon
switch is also using a custom OS and not some slightly changed general linux version and I'm pretty sure you can't use mouse+kb on a switch
the problem never was that it would not be possible, they also never said it, it was about cheat protection
now you can feel free to argue if that is truly their claim, how big the impact would really be etc.
but doesn't change that fact it's a valid argument
small comet
i mean
u can technically cheat on switch
but
ud most likely also get your swiTch banned
bleak pike
Man it sucks going against a pc player on switch hahahaha
small comet
so thats 300 buckos
fringe salmon
you also cant transfer the cheat you found on a switch to a pc where people would want it more/use it in tournaments etc.
small comet
correct
fringe salmon
if switch was using generic arch, then they probably would've also not let the game run on it is my bet
unless there was a way to really safely confirm its on a switch maybe, not sure
small comet
i think most of it comes down to the microkernel and the fact switches are permanently banned from nintendo if they go online while modded
or well
the chance is high to get beaned
fringe salmon
helps too yea
small comet
ngl its genius even if it means potential ewaste
fringe salmon
yea, same mindset I have for the new feature in AMD pro chips for security
if its enabled and you put the cpu in a different board a fuse gets blown and crypto keys are lost

A lot of misleading going on here
D2 just doesn't work on Linux as they are to lazy to make their anti cheat good
You have always been banned using proton as it flags it
fading spade
Yeah, but now they said straight up they will never make it work
and told you to install windows on the Deck in order to play the game
bleak pike
They never said never
lol
nor did they say to install windows
Go cry at siege also
same situation
hell they are anti vm too
its bullshit they are not making an effort for it to work with Linux for sure and im annoyed.
But the whole message going across is stupid
fading spade
unless Windows is installed and running
bleak pike
Yes
thats not telling people to use windows 11
its saying how it is
they only support windows
bleak pike
Bungie run a native linux port already
bleak pike
being windows only nor making the effort to fixing proton
fading spade
Ah.....
bleak pike
Which they wont release to the public
proton has always flagged the anti cheat
and they are to lazy to fix it
its why i gave up on duel booting many times
as i would always be on windows to play d2

dual booting is anxiety
got to make sure you never update windows or there is a chance it breaks shit
bleak pike
depends on the bootloader

feral ferry
||Nah it's one of the broken towers atop of which a ballistae sits, there was a trap chest there with a teleporter||

yeah there's a few that do that to you

|| That's the one that's in the swamp, brings you straight into Caelid, with all the shitty ass cave and morbid mutant things that it has||
ripe tendon
yeah I didn't find that one until like 10+ hrs in haha
feral ferry
It's honestly weird cause I've never played a Souls game before
So I have virtually no clue what to level
I have so far invested shit ton into DEX and STR, and currently I'm investing into FAI
But my health's low af so idk what to do about that, rune farming's tediously boring
ripe tendon
There is a ||re-roll at some point but I've heard it it's somewhat of a hassle to do||. Can't confirm though
feral ferry
There is, very late in the game
ripe tendon
some places are much better at farming than others
|| farm at night apparently when the golden leaves are falling. Also mobs with golden eyes||
feral ferry
I'm trying to find some weak ass monsters in later game areas, can easily rack up over 1k or so
ripe tendon
I usually roam and end up with 10k+ then die and say fuck it and move on
feral ferry
Sadly runes are tied to monster type, not to area necessarily
ripe tendon
well that would make sense if it's more runes for more difficult monsters
ripe tendon
cause I've found some weakass monsters in places that otherwise have nightmare monsters
feral ferry
Like I googled up Elden Ring weapons ranking
And this is apparently in SS tier ||https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Winged+Scythe||
But boy that FAI requirement is driving me nuts, over 10 levels of farming required
ripe tendon
I hope the scaling gets much better
lol and so far it shows it's FAI scaling is the better of them
go figure
I'm loving the game more than I do most so far. I appreciate all the little details to the things that make it something else. Enemy attacks and little differences help make it feel like something somewhat new
and the horseback animations are great
bleak pike
cant say i did anything with Claire @fading spade
afaik 99% of her shit is side quests
feral ferry
So I found that there is a stupidly easy way to get a one time payment of 42.000 runes in Elden
There's this "roaming" world boss that's pretty high level
You just aggro him on you, keep running and he somehow dies like 100m away, giving you some ashes and free runes
One time only, but an exploit nonetheless 
small comet
inb4 save reload rerewards you
feral ferry
And that finally gave me the weapon without the restriction I wanted to use
ripe tendon
Has anybody tried wooting/mouse input with elden ring? Kinda nice to see forced prompts in a game. Would be nice if it worked well since I definitely need analog sometimes
fringe salmon
it is open world souls with more content/mechancis yes
and not connected story wise
ripe tendon
tbh the world and some of the small things they do right, imo, is what's kept me interested
but yeah open world DS with some positive changes to the formula
ripe tendon
that's like 1 boss, ezpz
get some feet for boosted runes
or find a good farming spot right beside a grace like the one where all those mobs are fighting each other
small comet
or just
feral ferry
that's like 1 boss, ezpz
One high level boss or something
small comet
reverse the save format and edit it
ripe tendon
10 was 1 marget for me, I think
well maybe he was like 7 or 8 since I wasn't entirely empty
or yeah just use the cheat tables 😛
so the area after the first main boss really gave me hard demon's souls vibes. Much nostalgia
fringe salmon
argh fuck killed an npc from a quest line I think.. lets hope this only breaks part of it lmao

which is neat
Also, SteamUI has some problems with 4k displays, it doesnt fill the screen in the store sometimes
barren pewter

lana
the giant testicle monsters at valve have locked their hardware demo to their hardware
that's...so not cool

I watched a lets play of the game, he was using a controller.... so maybe im just stupid
barren pewter
I thought you'd be frothing at the mouth because of that

but he didnt have rear paddles and the gyro
so those parts of the game just had to skip over

nope, not stupid

yes, very stupid

did you get a glimpse at what controller was being used?

anyway
fading spade
The SteamUI theme is very dull IMO, dark blue/grey background
barren pewter
do some googling, very possible it's just not explicitly supported on Xbox One controllers
fading spade
Yeah, may be the case....
There was a game I played one time where it only worked with the One controller and not the 360 I had at the time
Borrowed my cousins One and it worked
fading spade
Yeah, this one is a bit darker than the normal background color cause its a toggle menu
oo, it has built in magnifier shortcut to zoom onto the screen
Steam + L1 and touchpad to move around
It seems you can just exit the game without saving ingame and itll take you back to SteamUI and sync the progress automatically
how though? does it keep the game running for a bit longer to save progress inside the game for you?
i dont get it

You can change your gamertag as often as you're willing to pay for it, though way back in the past, the first ever change was free.

It's both stupid looking and elegant at the same time....

ye
that car...
I got it too
it's alright
definitely not mindblowing or anything
fading spade
Time to race La Racer in off road..
barren pewter
it is horrible for that
thing isn't even that good on road, it's an overall meh car
fading spade
yeah LOL, this story series gives you the car to use
fading spade
dont get to choose
fading spade
where tf is my house... I got new clothes I wanna use

@fading spade I swear you play a game and toss it so quickly
fringe salmon
long time
only double digit playtime
smh not a no life nerd

Quin
having played FH4
you can complete most races and shit around the map in a good 50 hours
¯_(ツ)_/¯
fading spade
yeah LOL
barren pewter
even the DLC maps
granted...I 100%ed the lego valley
I swear it's not me being a lego fanboi
barren pewter
that one is quite good tbh
oh hey
Lana
if you get a horizon backstage pass
get the VW thingie that's maxed in all stats but speed, S2 998
it's actually really great for the technical circuits
even for most sprints
fading spade
dont think I have one of those
barren pewter
it'll hit 300km per hour no issues
barren pewter
dont think I have one of those
you get them from completing the horizon season challenges
I suggest doing the trials
fading spade
The car I was previously using hits over 300, but I hate how easily it spins out
fading spade
idk its on fortune island
fading spade
nah m8, they were well ahead of me
fading spade
also one of the racers is my friend on xbox, and hes a god at this game.... I barely win against his bots
i try this car?
fading spade
oh, it lets you pick from a range of cars depending on the type of car you enter the event with .-.
no wonder it only showed me coupes
barren pewter
...ffs
so it's most definitely not a festival event where you're forced into a certain class
it was just Lana being Lana
which is to say cute as heck
barren pewter
uh
no
you're wrong
FH4 has it's quirks
including the not switching cars prerace
I recall that being doable in past forza games I played
fading spade
HEK YE
fading spade
barren pewter
not bad
I'd swap the pulsor for a pistol or shotgun though
just because having multiple weapons using the same ammo pool...not a great idea
barren pewter
yep
I find if you "incapacitate" him using a weapon that does damage over time, say...poison or fire, and the effect deals the final blow
they're not actually dead

fringe salmon
72 hours into elden ring so far, 13/42 achievements, guess I'll probably have another 20ish hours before I beat the main story and then go for side stuff and then ng+ with new build and different npc questline? game is amazing
fading spade
how tf
did he get 1KM away in under a minute???#
with hanako too
RPG logic... LOL
fading spade
so..... the armor you have stays even though you are wearing a "Special" category outfit over it

afaik only raids are cross world
dc deffo makes a difference
just stay eu
basically everyone here is on eu afaik
mansen, quintosh etc
you do
if push comes to shove and u want to be in a company together
u contact support and do the wow thing
"my friend made a char in server x and i already started in y pls transfer so we can enjoy together"
orchid prism
The only meaningful difference is only being able to join guilds (FCs) on your home server, as well as only being able to SELL on that world's marketplace. You can visit any server in your server cluster and play with others there.
fringe salmon
Around June/July we get a patch that allows cross world stuff so then it matters even less
fringe salmon
speaking of, liveletter is going on @orchid prism 6.1 is planned to release for mid april
orchid prism
I see.
fringe salmon
either through settings
or hold X
hides player nameplates
what server did you end up on?
mansens DC then, be careful when you find a wild duck then 😛
uhh you can probably set up a macro that toggle them
looks like /names does what you want
small comet
it will only be another day or so of playing before you rp your char and become whatever race u chose
hope its lalafel otherwise imma hunt you
ive heard of those
they arent cute
fringe salmon
ah the "this race" selection, cousin of lanas "this game"?

"from a lore standpoint also, the mogstation doesn't exist in the game world, so an in game cash shop shouldn't exist," - yoshi-p
and this is why we love yoshi-p
small comet
from a lore standpoint gamemaster dont exist in the game world so we shouldnt get banned in game either
fringe salmon
well, just like mogstation exists outside, so does an account ban exist outside 😛 nice try
small comet
so whats the lore explanation for a character vanishing
and for there to be millions of heroes of light
how can everyone ingame be the shadowbringer
unrealistic game ngl
fringe salmon
smh
small comet
does ffxiv exist for mac?
fringe salmon
dont think so but not sure
oh nvm looks like it does
just not on steam but standalone seems to work
small comet
eh found out it uses wine
apparently m1 runs it rather well tho
ffxiv on the train les go

I was very confused until the kid called his horse Torrent
then I got more confused but at least I knew what the topic was

So weather supposedly affects spells in Elden Ring. Fire spells in rain are supposedly less effective
fading spade
seems the Decks ship out from Germany for EU customers
Just realised, I cant dual boot on Steam Deck, Windows cannot install to SD cards
trim rock
I'm pretty sure that can "easily" be worked around
fading spade
Yeha, its a jank workaround
That shouldnt be the case
TIL The Deck formats SD cards to EXT4
So if you wanna transfer things from your windows PC to Deck via SD card.... Good luck installing a way to access EXT4 devices from Windows
trim rock
Also pretty sure it would still be shipped from NL, Valve GmbH is just the company you're doing the actual business with if you're in EU
fading spade
Ahh, fair
trim rock
I don't think the workaround is that jank, it's just a manual install, like what people tend to do with their Linux distro of choice (btw)
trim rock
No I'm just thinking if you'd apply the wim to the card and then manually install the boot manager.. in theory it should work!
fading spade
idk how to install the bootloader
trim rock
I'd be more worried about performance ecks dee
fading spade
hm?
trim rock
Windows pummels whatever it's installed on, so something a bit slower like a SD card is probably pain
fading spade
I need to check how much RAM Windows take for me, I tried to debloat it as much as possible
novel umbra
seems the Decks ship out from Germany for EU customers
surprising
usually was from NL
novel umbra
they just used to use a warehouse in NL
was founded in 2016 btw
interesting about that is that gmbhs have to reveal data about assets
etc
fading spade
oo
novel umbra
wonder what the 8.45 million in "sachanlagen" is
would be some kind of physical good
which for valve basically would be hardware
and stuff like offices etc they might own
fringe salmon
other prototypes etc.
novel umbra
8 million just in hardware?
fringe salmon
nah but big part of it
novel umbra
Uhh ig
ripe tendon
so my friends and I always use 'poopoo' for game passwords when we host a server so we decided to use it as a group password or multiplayer password in Elden Ring and apparently others do too haha. Gotten summoned a few times by randos I don't know
novel umbra
warehouse costs
that is 100% rented
fringe salmon
still not free lol
novel umbra
a rented one?
small comet
yep
novel umbra
huh
small comet
my company cant build a warehouse lol
fading spade
It's insane to think about....
The Steam Deck is just $50 more than the OLED Nintendo Switch
AND you get a full ass computer to use also with it
AND a case to keep it in
fringe salmon
technology moves fast in 5 years
tough jay
The oled switch does have a nicer screen though.
fading spade
yep
tough jay
It wouldn't surprise me if Valve goes for something more custom next time, assuming it keeps selling well.
Oled does seem like a good option at that point
fading spade
Cant imagine OLED screen on the base model at least, they very very much struggled to get to $400
And apparently that will always be the base price for future models
fringe salmon
doubt they said that
tough jay
Later lineups may go a bit more high end and in bulk oled screens are not that expensive anymore. Per unit at least, so I don't know for future variants which may come at a higher price point
fringe salmon
why would they set a price target for hardware that doesnt exist yet
also they sold much more of the expensive versions than they expected
tough jay
They will need to monitor it as things develops as it may just be the case that their core audience is willing to spend more than the average consumer.
fading spade
I bet a large majority of people only bough the high end model for the storage space
not cause they actually wanted to spend that much
tough jay
I have a reservation for the middle model. I'd figure it's storage lasts me for a bit at least + micro sd. I will probably just upgrade it at some point later on.
fading spade
yeah, i got that too
fringe salmon
no shit they only got the high end model for the extra stuff like huh??
fringe salmon
ofc nobody wanted to just pay more lol
fading spade
yeh
fringe salmon
doesnt matter it was enough for vast majority to not get the cheapest version
so deck 2 might not have a 400usd target for cheapest option
tough jay
Could very well be the case, unless the cheapest option suddenly starts selling much faster when a broader audience starts to buy the deck
This really only happens if they catch up to demand
fringe salmon
sure but that doesnt mean that group would not pay more if the cheapest tier was more expensive 😛
fading spade
pretty sure the cost of SD cards will make the base model reach the price of the high end one real quick
how much is a speedy AF 512GB SD card?
fringe salmon
ok but how does that relate to the price of the steam deck?
tough jay
I have not specifically looked at speedy ones but you can get them for under € 60 at least
fading spade
wait, whats the circle with the 10 in it about? and the U with the 1 in it?
tough jay
class 10, relaly meaningless shit
fading spade
which one says about the speed ?
tough jay
means minimum of 10 MB/s sequential
tough jay
U1 basically has the same requirement as clas 10
fading spade
o
tough jay
A1 is 1500iops read 500 write
just looking it up on wikipedia the exact values
either way this is pretty much a low end card
or gives no indication of actually being performant
fading spade
higher A value is better?
tough jay
I would rather look at reviews and failing that rated speeds by the manufacturer
fading spade
€70
tough jay
roughly these are about as good as you are going to get if you want 500gb
tough jay
Just means the spec allows it, does not mean any card will get there anytime soon
fringe salmon
this fucker must have 1 hp left and I die ffs
fading spade
Yeah.... happened me many times in games
freaking hate it
Surely this would be fast enough for loading games on Deck?
A2, U3, V30, Class 10
These specs make my brain hurt... Literally getting a headache trying to look at what one is best
Valve reference their own games in the repo names haha
fading spade
we got to do social distancing in VR now .-.
