Yeah but ram is volatile memory meaning it needs power to store the information. They just took the need to move the data from the ssd to the ram meaning no lost times as it can access all the data all the time.
That would need an insane amount of ram
How much is this Xbox meant to be packing?
The average game is 20+ GB now
And OS for a console
Nah it's just sad storage needed. A 1tb ssd is all that would be needed. Plus cloud storage (azure) is used too
That would be slower then an SSD though
Becuase you then have ping time to contact the azure server
Then get the data
Then download or stream it
Sounds to me like Microsoft are spurting a whole lot of bullshit
SSDs are fast but they aren't RAM fast and even with the best nvme SSD's to date we can't get zero.load time
Well they have tech that turns multiple ssd drives (soldered into the board so no bottleneck) into virtual ram or the ram for the system. It's faster because it doesn't have to load the data into ram in the first place. That's why there is no load time because it is already loaded
That's not how it works though
SSDs are as fast as their bus
And no storage bus is as fast as the bus for RAM
AMD infinity fabric would be as close as we can get
But even then we are limited by the SSDs speed
Which is still slower then RAM
Yes and in this case it's on the board so it's linked directly to the processors. The loading times come from transferring data from the storage to ram
SSDs are still only so fast
I'm no electrical engineer so I can't know for certain but to me it sounds like Microsoft are squirting water up their own arse
I have to jump off for the evening though now
Interesting conversation, feel free to add to it.
I will read it tomorrow
"Xbox Project Scarlett will also combine all of that super fast DDR6 memory we mentioned earlier with an SSD drive, and the results sound incredibly impressive. "We’ve created a new generation of SSDs... We’re using the SSD as virtual RAM," Microsoft said during the reveal video (linked up top), and the result will effectively make loading times a thing of the past. It'll make your favorite games smoother and faster, ironing our creases in performance. In theory, this should boost core performance 40 times over what the current generation is offering in this department. "
the SSDs they are adding are not the typical ones available to consumers currently. They are proprietary.
is this the xbox 2?
Apple have been using proprietary SSDs for years in the MacBook Air. As Doot states, there is still a bus controller between the processors, system storage and RAM, that may or may not bottleneck throughput.
There are also reports out that the PS5 is still looking to be faster and more powerful than Scarlett, based on the dev kits for each.
In the end the only major change console gonna get is the SSD. Console won't be running a 2080ti equivalent.
Apple's tech is not the same as MS tech
Apple has a different proprietary system, not as new
project Scarlett is running an RTX 2070 equivalent
reportedly
Scarlett running a rtx2070, then yeah it wont be at a low price 
And when that release people will be running 3080ti+ on pc
Yeah, not sure too many people will be in the market for an $800 console.
thats the selling point of consoles, the low price. and in sonys case the exklusives.
if it can run 8K for $800 yeah, there is a market for that
if the prices are mega high. then pepole would just get a pc at that point 
8K already exists in Japan.
it's like the Xbox One S playing MOVIES at 4k
For gaming
8k for 800. if its not upscaled like a heck. and its legit 8k. then il take shots to that.
^
gaming on Scarlett will most likely be 4k
maybe at 60fps max
120fps is for 1080 or maybe 1440 mode
but last time i checked unicorns arent real. and consoles are still running games poorly.
consoles are 5 years old
I'll just upgrade my pc at that point. All ms game are on pc. The only console worth getting is nintendo/ps for the exclusive.
Navi is brand-new tech
so is Ryzen
my xbox one x runs games fairly well, not sure what you're on
the regular xbox one is a bit dated now, for sure
Even from PS4 Pro to PC, Destiny 2 on PC (even using a lowly 1050Ti) looks 1500% better, and runs 60+FPS.
And yes. Console run game well because devs can focus on a single device. Then only optimise 1 set of component. Removing and adjusting eye candy to have a stable game.
as for most of your games being on pc, I can get behind that. Most of my games are for xbox since my older pc fried and I couldn't replace it for 5 years :/
lol ps4 blows
even the pro
Runs God of War a lot better than XBox... lol
but for example, a game like Prey runs at almost identical texture and effects levels on my xbox one x as my ryzen 2700 + RTX 2060 OC combo, my pc just gets 140+fps on 1080, vs the 30ish on console
I mean, exclusive, so duh
lol
30 vs 140+
same effects and fidelity though, which is my point, I get that 30 is far below 140, the point is a console handling a game with the same fidelity as a pc. Visuals are the same, minus the smoothness
most of time no
people look at consoles as such inferior things when they have their place
Consoles are very slow, even at their price point
most of the time- it depends on the devs
In this case. Devs focused on visual over gameplay. A stupid mistake... very very stupid mistake for a fps game.
for an RPG* fps
You want the best fps
Prey is a single player rpg
Yep. I’d like to see the $400 PC that runs Assassin’s Creed Odyssey at anything better than 30fps.
my $1500 computer doesnt run that game... its so poorly optimized
:/ mine does
consoles exist because of people not interested in technics and just want something that works out of thee box
that's what I learnt at my job, it's also why apple sells shit
consoles exist because it makes the developers job easier to make a game that knows everyone uses the same components
LOL
OOF Bella, that's rough
it makes their job harder
I run it just fine :/
they have to spend A LOT of time optimizing
a console doesn't make a dev's job harder? what?
LOL they spend FAR more time optimizing a game to be able to be playerd on numerous combinations of components of varying specs
Console actually slow down PC progression.
pc is more involved than console
there are more tools on pc
they dont.... Nvidia/AMD does most of that
Now ya’ll got me wanting to pick up ACO on PC to see if my laptop will run it. It’s an i7-7700HQ with a GTX 1050Ti 3GB.
it'll run, Steve. Just not amazingly
it's def one of the new games that requires high-end gaming components
Yes you can run it. Just adjust setting appropriatly.
Sorry but Nvidia doesn't take AC after it's been made and optimize the game for the devs
just doesn't happen
Drivers do most of the work
DoW 3 performance was pure garbage, 40fps 1080p on a 1070
Devs still have to optimize, but not nearly as much time with a PS4 or Xbox
sorry, that's simply not correct
a console has a single apu
one major optimization
p[cs have NUMEROUS different components requiring MANY optimizations for each component
just straightforward
, no they aren't
If it was that easy. Devs would make gtfo on console at the same time. It is not.
pc have different but they work the same
the same APUs are in all Xbox one consoles
Porting to console are extra work
man, people don't seem to uinderstand a console IS a pc
with specific OS and components
all pc with a 7700k have the same cpu, that's what you're saying
all pc with a 7700k might have an entirely different GPU, HDD etc
each time a new console is released, it uses new hardware
THE. Point.
Different combinations of components that have to work together properly for the game
The architecture completely different from what modern cpus and gpus are, that most engines dont run well
pc-wise, x86 won't change
if it was always on Nvidia, game dev patches wouldn't exist
new consoles run x86 architechture, same as all new pcs
gcc isn't changing much too
Its still harder to release on console. There a major reason why most game release first on PC.
It is easier
👆
Console take a lot of time
relrease on console is only har dbecause MS and Sony charge extra money to release on their storefront
because consoles are using specific hardware
time is money
MS has a group dedicated to helping indie devs
then why all indie games are always released on pc?
If they have a group to help. Its prolly a good sign it is NOT easy right?
Sony is just a bitch to work with lol, if i made a game i'd never release on ps4
because Indie devs generally don't have start-up capital, pc realease is generally free to nothing on steam
so pc first, make money, then port to console
that means nothing
You don't just pay ms license to release a game on console and over. That not how it work.
they have a group to help new indie devs learn how to develop. Game develop isn't easy tobeing with, obviousaly.
true
to begin with*
tools are usualy bad
engines are mostly bad
all made on a bigger pc, then imported to console to test
source is well made
(unpopular opinion: Unity is far from a bad engine)
like, no dev turns on an xbox console to develop a game on directly 😛 they all get made on powerful pcs then imported over to test
Unity has it's ups and downs
but they are mostly not useful enough or not optimised enough
it works well enough, IF you can learn it well enough haha
thats all engines lol
really though lol
Soo switching stance now XD
good games made with unity don't have the unity splashscreen, that explains the popular opinion
who switched stances?
but yeah basicaly any framework is bad because you can't do exactly what you want in the best optimised way
yeah most engines have to be modified slightly to allow the mechanics they want in their game
same, and opengl is a mess so I didn't manage to make a game :/
I probably shouldn't aim for vsync and all those thing first 🤔
I managed to find a way to map minecraft-like maps onto a planet
minecraft is a masterpiece of code... or it was until ms got involved
lol I never use v-sync
minecraft is scary
^
the code was written in such an open way that there are game mechanics being used that were never intended
and it's definitely not well optimised
like people using redstone to make multi0core cpus
the chunk loading is sooooooo fucking slooooooow
insanity
My PC can run Witcher 3 full ultra in 2K/60fps... but Minecraft? oof.. not in a thousands years
my netbook can run minecraft at 60fps?
that will make a huge difference in performance
hey don't misunderstand, it surely works well on the worse computers (ikr) but I'm sad that it doesn't run much faster on my 2k€ rig
btw it was /sarcasm XD
like damn the chunk loading
i get 1000fps?
ik, my frame times and chunk loading is low
wew, managed to find my mc account password XD
lol
hahaha
to get back on the cpu on minecraft thing, I would like to say that I'm always very sad to see one
like java version or MS?
because those guys could to those with real logic gates (and faster)
ms? like the minecraft bundled with win10?
idk I dropped after the 1.6.4
ah
if it's the original launcher, then yeah haha
the win10 version launches through the microsoft app or xbox or whatever
I remember when 1.9 was like the future, the end of the world
I don't even know what they're on now
haven't touched it in a cpl years tbh
well, that's not true
talking about end, the end is soo weeird now
I tested it on my new pc a cpl months ago, but only for like 1 min
yeah, I played 5 minutes once or twice in the last few years too
there's isn't much to do on this game
the win10 version has a lot more updates
in about 2 years you did everything
yeah
nowadays I don't know how long it would actually take someone to do everything in minecraft
so much random stuff added
woah the new map laoding is very nice
wtf 114 fps on a 1070
it still takes minutes to load the chunks :/
"just"
lol still decent
YEAH I GUESS
hahaha
for 1080p man
GIT GUD SCRUB
haha I only kid
I only play in 1080p
1440 and 4 k are too expensive atm
I got lucky enough to find a 27" 1080p 144Hz minotor for $350 CAD
minotor? sure yeah
lol
see what I mean, I'm still between 110 and 120fps regardless if I'm with a 32 chunk radius ultra or a 12 chunk radius minimum settings
fresh optimizations
for 2 years ago I think that's a decent price
I think 300 euros is like almost 600 CAD oof
hahaha
looool
embarrasing
lol apparently the MS version won't let me get over 72fps at fully maxed out settings lol 72 chunk render/view, 75 degree POV
guess the MS version has an fps cap of 144, somehow I have a type of v-sync on that limits me to 72 :/
can't see how to turn it off though haha gg MS
lel
4k@144
Is an RTX 2080TI enogh for this Game? 😄
The game should run fine on mid range from years back.
@hexed horizon analyze the game's requirements
Ehhh, alright.
Ludvig started testing older videocards a couple of months ago. The lowest he tried was the GTX650 videocard, from 2012. He said "the game runs fine", I assume that's 30FPS at max on 720p.
I looked it up, he mentioned the Intel Core i5-2500k. Which is roughly the same as the i5-4460 or Ryzen 3 1200, (at least thats what Userbenchmarks says)
So... the videocard is from 2012. The i5-4460 is from 2014. I think it's same to assume that the game will run on 2014 midrange computers.
And I'm a fricking dumbass about computers.
I guess Doot could explain it to you better.
I mean I don't really know how CPUs work, I just kinda look at Userbenchmarks and clock speeds...
Well assuming that the GTX970 is used to capture in-game footage, of which we know is 60fps and 1080p, I can safely assume that GTFO will run at about 180 FPS on GTFO.
(As long as it’s on the same settings)
180fps? Wowweee
Thanks @hexed horizon for the detailed breakdown
Seems like an i5 4440 or FX-6350 coupled with a GTX 660 2GB or HD 7870 2GB would be safe minimums
Is it meant to be confusing with the Na'Vi names?
As in, inverting the numbers in correlation to performance, but still putting the high performing card as highest.
"I can safely assume that GTFO will run at about 180 FPS on GTFO." on GTFO?
180, why not a billion 
180 fps would be sweet 🤷 😅
180 fps 1080p on two 2080ti would not be sweet
180 fps 4k on integrated graphics would be freaking sweet tho
Navi = last best chance to redeem PC gaming
ok but can it run Crysis
@eager sedge
if PC prices in your region are near 1 USD : 1 EURO
then a decent mini-ITX PC can be had for like 1500 euros
1 usd should never equal 1 euro
oh but computer pricing in euro is expensive
1 eur is 1.12 usd
so the same PC that can be had in the US for 1500 USD you'd need probably 1700 euros
Yeah but its hard in germany... i am thinking now to go Nyderlands
Well i am from another country so i am goiing to lithuania and other places so i need laptop 😃
ah I See
probs a new gaming laptop I guess
do you travel and stay for months on end or every day/week
For 3-4 months then goiing to other place
If you travel by car, mini-ITX isn't too bad, else better a gaming laptop
my setup cost me 2k€ 2 years ago, the tower alone 1700
7700k, 1070, 16GB 3.2GHz, 1080p 144Hz
it was the dream of my life (I waited this moment for 6 years)
for a medium budget gaming config as for today I'd choose 2060 + i5-9400F + 8GB
maybe can consider RX 5700 + R5 3600x + 16GB DDR4?
also 6 years? your previous build must have been really long lasting I guess?
nine years gang ✋
no I just didn't have any money (was in HS then uni)
it's because I was playing on a trashcan that I wanted soo badly something soo powerful
dual core 1.65GHz, no gpu, 4GB upgraded to 8
tho I expect this one to last freaking long
@late sorrel whoah seriously?
yee
@abstract kite ah ha uni
2500k, HD5670, 8gb of ram
I recently yeeted it off of my landing
idk, it was shit anyway
might as well help it along
2500k is passable if overclocked to 4.4
I had a 386, 486 in school then pentium III-450 in "high school" (O levels?)
Athlon thunderbird 1 Ghz + Geforce 2 GTS in uni/college
Athlon 64x2 + x1650xt > 9600gt after a year of work
which one is the most powerfull, athlon II or raspberry pi iyo?
most likely the Athlon II?
ok, because I have both of them at home and I use them the same way (running linux, access via ssh)
and a raspi is very convenient (just one wire to plug to a small board)
yee
so I was wondering if my harvested athlon II build was still worth
can confirm, have a pi3
funny thing, I got both of them for free XD
No
This will be here today https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16824236821
in like 15 minutes UPS will be here or at least they're suppose to be
Well
Hahaha
What's the point of having 144hz?
And it's like 100 USD more
Like, only games like CSGO needs 144hz
And I've been getting bored
BR is awful
CoD meh
GTFO wouldn't need it much
60 FPS at 60Hz is not bad at all tbh
I don't need
like
144hz
ok
?
Even if it meant
my
nah it's cool I was just messin with ya anyways 😃
kek
I actually need to figure out what I'm gonna do with this new 40" TV lol
It takes up like my entire desk
and my monitor will be here soon™
I paid extra for 3 day shipping
otherwise it woulda been here like next week
I just bought the monitor today lol
was only like $14 for 3 day shipping
To be honest, I'm most likely going to be stuck playing Cyberpunk 2077 when it comes out lol
I have more games that are single player on the wish list so 144hz is no point in getting it
@fleet canopy makes sense
I like competitive shooters so 144 makes more sense for me
I'll most likely be playing A LOT of APEX
and other shooters n such
no PUBG tho lol
hate that game and the developer(s)
Yea it could of been a lot better but the game itself isn't even what drove me away
144Hz is great for every game tho
Only for FPS
For smoothness
But eh
I've been stuck at 60 FPS
Better than 15 FPS on PD2
and maybe I'm a bit childish about it but honestly Brandon Greene drove me away from the game.. his attitude towards Epic Games and trying to claim copy right n shit that Fortnite copied his game n everything and trying to actually pursue it with the courts like idk.. just didn't sit right with me
If HE actually had won that case
it would of throw decades of games into the fold
I'll get a 144hz monitor when I get my PC
cause Quake 3 Area and Unreal Tournament are almost the same game
the original q3 arena came out about the same time the original unrea did
and many other games that look very similar as well
no different than all these dances Fortnite keeps adding to their game and the people who makeup the dances try to pursue it in court.. like freedom of expression isn't protected by copyright sorry
kek
It's funny too because all of the cases have been shot down
so all these celebrities are paying tons of money to sue and they get no where lol
lmao
@harsh terrace your avatar has changed...
We people change avatars all the time
We all recognize it
Somehow someone might not notice
@fleet canopy you've changed yours as well too right?
In preparation of a *brand new 144Hz monitor"... ahhh
Just joking, unless your animated gifs play at 144 fps
What about it owo
The revamp sucks lol
It's clunkier in spots it wasn't before
Although some of the new stuff is nice
@silver sable nice to see you here again 👌🏻
if I may interject, I do not consider free-for-all or team-deathmatches like Quake 2 or Unreal Tournament to be anything similar to PUBG.
PUBG's battle royale style of gameplay was only ever seen once before, in Arma 2 Battle Royale.
Which is a mod for Arma 2 made by, wait for it, Brendan Greene in 2013, and he also worked on the H1Z1 King of the Hill battle royale game mode with Daybreak.
Brendan's problem is that he never copyrighted his work on the mod, nor on PUBG, nor for H1Z1 KOTH, and tried to retroactively copyright it and sue developers who had made similar battle royale style games when they essentially had every right to do so.
I don't like what Brendan Greene did either, but he was technically trying to protect his intellectual property, just ignorantly.
Though, the Battle Royale japanese movie was made before his mod, so it would stand that they would have more rights to sue than he does, if it weren't for the separation of legalities between film and video games.
It's all a mess really lol
also 144Hz is great for every game 😛 ESPECIALLY fps, racing, flight sim, really anything that has fast motion in it haha
Step one to getting a great pc...
save monies
Buy a legit gaming computer that actually works before you have to build that shit.
Step two. Upgrades.
Ree
But ASUS tho...
just go watch how-to-build vids from Linustechtips, Jayztwocentz, Bitwit and you're good to go 😛
a laptop is a different beast
You get it for good things but it’s boring
I would not advise to build your own laptop lol
Well. I bought my laptop, and I’ve upgraded it since.
if you want ASUS, buy ASUS parts and put it together yourself 😛 save hundreds
It has put quite a few desktops to shame in its time.
Asus everything? Oh god...
It’s getting old now, but it’s still a great computer.
I might get a 1070 Ti for the 1440p monitor and for vr maybe
The PC comes from my money though not my family’s
It’s got an i7, an Nvidea GeForce 1060, 32 GB of ram, and 8TB worth of hard drive space.
Oh Jesus
I bought mine as well.
What i7 though
for the price of a 1070ti you could get an RTX card
1060 isn't terrible, but it is pushing the limits of being obsolete nowadays sadly
the new games are getting hardcore
Hmm
8TB of storage is decent, but is that all on HDD, or is the OS on an SSD?
So which card over 1070 Ti
The os is on an SSD
You’re probably mistaken... ddr5 is not cost effective at a consumer level right now
It’s 256 gigabytes, but it has only the OS on it...
lemme just compare some prices for the 1070Tis vs some other cards.
a shitty 1070Ti on pcpartpicker shows %519.99 USD
a shitty RTX 2070 is $459.99 USD
RTX 2070 is 8GB of GDDR6 ram
Not bad
but that 6GB will run faster than the 8GB of GDDR5
Also I somehow completely missed the G part of GDDR5
lel 😛
Go home me... i’m drunk...
it happens
Could definitely go for a 2060
but yeah an RTX 2070 is cheaper than a 1070Ti, and nets about a 15% performance increase
Along with 2 TB HDD
True
I have an ROG STRIX RTX 2060 OC and it's been amazing
Mobile sucks ass lmao gimme the comparison to 1060 3GB and 2060
T Hanks
and that's a 1060 6GB XD
Yea. Strait up DDR5 isn’t actually Available quite yet... some time this year... it’s expected to be ungodly expensive
so probably a 70+% performance increase
yeah regular RAM modules are still DDR4, GPU uses GDDR ram
It’s expected that bitcoin mining will cause the price of ddr5 to increase dramatically after release.
Lmfao bitcoin mining
Ye
why RAM and GPU prices have been falling steadily
is that stil a thing?
I only thought that was stil a thing in countrys where power is cheap as fuck
Just a crappy investment though
Yes... but the ddr5 will be lower power, and make it cheeper.
it's almost dead
Bitcoin is 9k
not low enough power
Theres other better things to invest into now that bitcoin is pretty low in value
Well... we won’t really know until it gets here. Lmao.
Like a PC
the RAM isn't what made the power consumption spke, the string of 10+ gpus is
PC gaming is dead so a pc aint the best investment at the moment either
Kek
only if you are looking to do graphical work or make content lmfao
put 10 RTX 2080Ti's in a row and tell me the RAM is the powqer consumer 😛
“Pc gaming is dead”
Isn’t a Vega 64 a power consumer?
pc gaming isn't going anywhere
And this guy is in a Pc gaming discord about people waiting for GTFO.
all gpus are power consumers haha
Pc gaming just pc gaming
PC gaming is pretty dead at the moment let me know any good releases in the last 2 years
that made a different for pc gaming
other than fortnite
and maybe apex
Fork and knife
LOL
Fortnite is not straight...
immediately has to make exceptions XD
Don’t use the word
Well fortnite is a whole different beast since it made developers actually think about suicide since their work hours are so high
Oh Jesus
not having a good game in a cpl years also doesn't mean it's dead. I play on pc more than ever now
I stopped playing as much as I used to sadly
It feels dead for me only way i get entertainment out of pc gaming at the moment if i actually press my stream to online mode and get some interaction with the viewers
But it should be back with the new games coming to release
I just went back to good games, waiting for The Outer Worlds to come out in October, and whenever the hell GTFO comes out lol
Just because a good game (per your definition) hasn’t been released, doesn’t mean that good games aren’t under development, or haven’t been released.
They said 2019
I just need to buy games
instead of just dumping mindless hours into a game i dont enjoy anymore since i played it for the 10th time since theres nothing releasing at the moment thats good enough to give my attention too
Then I’m set
Seems pretty dead to me
But i’m thinking more 2020
I play lots of Arma 3 still
and put $3000 on a new pc
A lot of people I know play arma 3
I play some csgo daily but not too much
Arma 2 was better
Arma 2 was terribly optimized
I play alot of GTA 5 at the moment if i didnt have that i would play arma 3
only thing I played on it was the dayz mod
where battle royale got it's start
The old school hardcore feeling of losing all ur shit on the dayz servers you played like 10 - 20 - 30 hours to gain everything
Arma is actually what got me into pc gaming
Same
I think i have like 2000 or 3000 hours into arma 2 and possibly more with arma 3 combined
Well... @dusty pumice if Pc gaming sucks so bad go back to your console.
NoPixel was born on arma 3
I have no idea how many I have because I owned it for so long I used to use the Arma launcher, not steam XD
and its now one of the bigger viewerships on twitch in GTA 5 roleplay
Nothing's dead lol
Something is
@thorny granite im not an console player i have been playing pc since 2000
I know when the era of pc gaming feels dead to me or alive
Only saw one dude
Im allowed to have an oppinion without being send to a corner of console gaming
if you cant handle freedom of speach maybe go live in iran
Splinter Cell Chaos Theory needs to be remade in Unreal Engine with Ray Tracing lighting effects. UGH that would look so good
Well, your opinion isn’t exactly founded.
Come with a counter then u havent?
Hmm
so how is it not founded
Battlefield 3 remastered with ray tracing
PC gaming is growing... And chill, no one attacked you lol
PC TECHNOLOGY
More realistic, classic maps and weapons, and the flashlight would look badass reflecting off things
Pc technology is stil getting advanced updates
We
Just the games have been very slow in releases
Yes
Steam currently has 47 million users and counting.
and the games that release either in alpha or beta
Either have lack of player base so lose their developer support
slow releases doesn't mean dead though, literally means the opposite as more time and care is being put back into games. Instead of shelling out mindless yearly titles
Or they just flop for some other reason
Yes
COUGH call of duty, assassins creed COUGH
we don't know that yet Harold, shhh 😛
though yeah, seems it is doing a better job this time around
So far it's presentation isn't bad
Every modern warfare games in one buy, realistic asf looking and multiplayer gotta be lit for it
The Activision community is currently dying, but Activision also let go of destiny so we don’t need them anymore.
Ehehehehe
then you died again
Lol
Destiny 2 is dying
Nobody likes Activision.
Bungie can save it tho
I hope they do
And they are... From what it looks like
Eh
Destiny had troubles because Activision was too involved.
I guess so
I feel like it won’t be as near good as destiny 1
Good with content maybe but
You know
Feels like alot of these mobile games are sucking a bit of life from the pc gaming aswell
Like the good part of destiny
Alot of mobile games got announced last 2 years not that its a bad thing
Mobile is dead to me
Sequels are never as good.
but dont do it on events where alot of pc games get announced
Mobile games are just awful
I have not one installed on my mobile phone
(doom eternal, I bet you feel stupid now lol)
Idk why people even play those games i mean maybe in school or in the train / bus
but idk
(jk we don't know yet)
Never felt the need to get into mobile gaming
But there are loads and loads of the same crap that just is a bit different
And bloons is to kill time when i’m not at home.
Yeah true
Battle royals will forever be shit as fuck
I dont know about that
Yea... they added a battle royale to FO 76
Unless it’s managed to be alright
something great could happen
Yeah
but i dont know if thats ever going to happen tbh
Apex was a bit interresting until it got over run by hackers and cheaters
now its pretty much forgotten
It stil has a semi decent loyal player base tho
im really interrested to see whats going to happen with fortnite
after 2019
What will happen when theres no more 100 million dollar tourneys
will they pump money into it again
or whats epic gonna pull this time
Fortnite is like roblox...
No
Roblox is good
It lets players create what they want
Fork and knife isn’t
And it’s only one mode
Its easy to fuck fortnite up with the weekly updates if they stil do those
Roblox got a shit ton of game modes despite how it’s awful
Yeah is roblox not like modded by the community aswell
I dont keep up with those games but i believe it is
Anything run by the community will always be better than something that’s not...
Not always
That’s why most steam games are so successful
Not like Tiny Tanks, that got deded fast
But yeah most of the times its okay to above okay
Thomas the train engine was great
btw
Steam workshop keeps a lot of steam games alive
Im just really scared whats gonna happen after 2020
with all the game services coming that are going to rent out
Like people used to rent movies
They’ll die...
It can be either really good or really bad where you have 10 different choices to make
Same with the netflix dilemma where disney and all those other companys are pulling their content away and making their own platform you can rent that content rom
Nowadays it’s a website giving free movies
from *
It will be easier to sit in your home in your underwear on your Xbox and buy the game, download it right then, and play it.
And be a fat fucker
Idk if its gonna be bad people will just go back to cracking games like it was in 2000's and that was pretty bad for the gaming industry imo
Now if they did a Netflix for gaming where you subscribe and you can play any game you want for as long as you want just for a monthly cost, that would probably thrive.
But it’s all Xbox exclusives
or 4 euros a month / dollars for the pc games
playstation is going to follow that i think
And u have square enix thats planning on it
and ubisoft
Ubisoft Subscription Service
Unlimited access to 100+ games on UPLAY +
Try it for Free Between September 3rd - 30th*
Seems like they already are on it lmfao
But again... those are all developer exclusives
If they do one that is every game ever...
getting Outer Worlds when it comes out day one
U can get alot of 60 dollar games for a euro or a dollar a month at the moment
on game pass
I actually played metro there lmfao
I didnt want to support epic fail store
And im stil cashing in on my weekly free games from the epic fail store
Ebic Gamma Stare is kinda ok
so im supporting my self instead of them lmfao
I don't mind there being another store like Epic, I dislike removing games from steam to have an exclusivity deal on Epic
It sucks ass, but not too bad
Its not horrible but im just not gonna buy there
Idc about installing my games on a different platform
yeah I haven't paid for anything on it ewither
just free games
after buying my new pc I don't have the funds to get any new games lol
Oof lol
I have like...
But i had a pretty big steam library already
500 games I own.
Im on 400 ish now climbing slowly too 500
I have maybe 20 games for steam, most before my old pc fried
I have 300+ on Xbox lol
I have humble monthly...
89 games
So I get like.. 20 games a month,
I have so many I’ve never even downloaded
Im only interrested in new game releases at the moment
lol
I did my catch up with all the good quality older games
the only games I currently play on STeam are Arma 3, Space Engineers, 7 days to die, project zomboid, pc building simulator and Civ 5 lol
What u do these days in arma 3 ?
but I also got Anthem and The Division 2 for free with my GPU and CPU
what kind of mods / or servers u play on?
I play edited missions with friends, escape maps, Altis life
it's gotten a bunch more updated
But there was not that much out there at the start of arma 3
@fleet canopy aint u buying a 60hz monitor?
why if u only play csgo
Well
Yeah arma stil holds my love
Csgo is boring as fuck
I wish arma 4 would be announced and would be a mix between arma 2 and 3
I still play it for casual and community
that would be my wet dream game to be released
I'll get it on sale
Go karts is old as fuck tho i believe
It released somewhere around the release of arma 3
It’s old as fuck yeah
ye
I dont think its your type of game
depends on if you like realistic military simulators
but idk harold could come out of some suprising corner and like it for a weird reason
haha it happens
I cant wait until GTA 6 comes out
I like the realism
But it’s actually not because of that
then u gotta wait a year or 2 for it to come to pc
It’s because I can’t hear people well
Why cant you hear people well?
or if thats a personal thing just keep it to yourself
I have a hearing disability Kek
ahh
That's not epic
yeah that might be a problem for those types of games
If fucking windows would let me have it at a loud ass volume
I know of a couple of headphones that could litteraly blow out your ear drums
but idk if ur family members would be happy with those
lmfao
Gimme
my SADES brand earphones were $40CAD and are 7.1
Yeah i dont think 7.1 will help for him
they're loud af
I have 7.1 aswell
I have 60% hearing loss in my left ear
Then alright
(worked next to a CNC lachine with no ear protection for a cpl years)
I have like a 70% ish loss in left ear and 50% on right
thats a lot on the 70%
It gets lower to maybe 10-20% with da cough implants cough
these have 115Db sensitivity
I generallly only point these out because they're the best quality out of the cheapest 7.1 headsets I looked through
$25USD
Is 60 USD without sale
You’re right it’s 26
oooof
it might
Nah i dont think thats how it works if you want to ship to europe
but idk
it might
somehow
I just switched it to UK and it says only $13.27 extra for shipping
UK dont even ship to me
ooof
idk UK is weird for me atleast the amazon website
brutal, and I thought shopping for tech in Canada was rough\
Well for the longest time i couldnt even order from amazon
Then we got a amazon website in my country
and its only selling books or e books
Now i can ship things to my country from certain amazon websites
Classic start of amazon
but i have to go through loop holes
And i usually get spammed with like emails from them
that my payment or shipment is canceled
then have to call them like 5 times or they call me
and they fix it in the system
lmfao
Last time i orderd from amazon i got like 30 emails in a row
that sucks 😦
in a couple of minutes / hours
what about Newegg?
Just get blocked off the website when i try to order there lmfao
jaysus
they like hell naw
sounds like you need a decent VPN program
welp, time to move I guess haha
lol
I heard Hawaii gets terrible internet, not sure if that's true though haha
and made me scared to go live there
what's scary about Japanese?
Yeah i think they got horrible internet there aswell
the camera men beg to differ
thats pretty bad tbh
Oof
yeah that's bad
looks like they are getting/already got gigabit internet
I have like 60 at the moment
940Mbps
I have a 1000 and 500 up at the moment
100 up and down 100 is good
base fiber
thats fiber?
bottom tier package from Bell
yup
Bell, as in Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone XD
his company
the first telecom company
the company Bell basically owns every telephone wire in the country
and companies like Virgin, Koodo Telus, Fido, etc all rent those wires from Bell
Okay well that fucking blows but isnt that the same thing in usa aswell?
