[craggy shoal]

lmaooo

I'm at work 😭

JUST WANNA PLAY IT

[worthy tapir]

I called my gf and had her download it on my pc while im at work 😂

[craggy shoal]

lolll imma RDP into my desktop at home to download it now

Now we wait for a minute or two

[rancid juniper]

the disadvantages of being employed

[craggy shoal]

Here we go

[rancid juniper]

🔥

[craggy shoal]

Using all 500 Mbps of my work Internet access (via Ethernet) to download TES Oblivion

[rough zinc]

Surprisingly good ngl, they actually made Fo3 and FNV playable without modding

Increased the download size from like 5gb to 45gb tho 💀

[rancid juniper]

🗿

[craggy shoal]

Interesting. Because FoNV crashes on my brother's computer when he tries making a new game lol

[rough zinc]

Microsoft store/game pass version?

[craggy shoal]

yeah

I think

[rough zinc]

Weird

[craggy shoal]

It was after he came from a console, so probably

He's also still kinda new to having a PC to play games on so that's probably another issue lol

[elfin mural]

The game is gonna live up to its name

Oblivion

It's gonna be an oblivion for pcs

[rancid juniper]

lol thats what i was thinking about 30 mins ago

[acoustic palm]

@fresh timber please help

im going insane

[craggy shoal]

Okay already a wtf moment. First time starting the game though so that's fine (playing on my laptop for now. 14650HX, 4070 8GB, and 32GB of memory)

[acoustic palm]

hi motor

[craggy shoal]

motor

[fresh timber]

Why

Shut up

[acoustic palm]

monitor bug

[craggy shoal]

Stock settings, whatever that is for my system. Frame rate actually feels pretty smooth. Can't give a number yet though, still trying to get that working

[fresh timber]

Hug

Dm me smh

[tranquil pebble]

Think an i5 6500 Optiplex would make a good pihole

[craggy shoal]

GUYS YOU'LL NEVER BELIEVE THIS

[rancid juniper]

looks good

[craggy shoal]

YOU CAN ALT+TAB IN THIS GAME AND IT WON'T CRASH

[rancid juniper]

MODERN GAME

✅

[craggy shoal]

Like 100 fps in the character creation menu

[rancid juniper]

resolution?

[craggy shoal]

Imma try to rush through the tutorial dungeon and get outside

[craggy shoal]

2560x1600

[fresh timber]

11900k overclocked

[rancid juniper]

hmm not bad

[craggy shoal]

Medium settings, RT off, DLSS set to Balanced

Still doesn't even look bad at all. I had no idea I had budget PC-like settings enabled

[rancid juniper]

kinda surprised there's an RT option

[craggy shoal]

Funny quirk (typo?): "Left Control" is correct but "Shift Left"?

My shoulder doesn't exist I guess

[rancid juniper]

bethesda jank already

😂

[craggy shoal]

Can't wait to leave this dungeon and see the actual frame rate

[rancid juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/60fps-shock-gif-18486540

[craggy shoal]

you he's looking real good

bruh this is medium settings wtf

[rancid juniper]

damn

[fresh timber]

Game looks boring

[craggy shoal]

I told my gf I'd get my life together. This game might ruin that for me lol

[wicked oriole]

led_cpu?

[opaque sedge]

Damn they actually shadowdropped it

[opaque sedge]

Is that oblivion remastered?

[craggy shoal]

@rancid juniper Frame rate is jumping all over the place, but about 60-80 fps on my laptop 4070 (8GB) and 14650HX

All medium settings, DLSS set to Balanced

[craggy shoal]

yes

[opaque sedge]

Are u running it on ur 4070super?

[opaque sedge]

Does it have third person mode?

[craggy shoal]

Nah just my laptop 4070

[craggy shoal]

yes

[opaque sedge]

Is it good?

Or wonky?

[craggy shoal]

Don't know yet lol. Haven't played with it much

[opaque sedge]

The controls for third person

Hmm

I just got mhwilds

But been wanting an open world rpg

[craggy shoal]

I could totally play this on my laptop tbh

[opaque sedge]

Looks like fanatical has it too

[craggy shoal]

@opaque sedge 3rd person is definitely an improvement over previous TES games

Yo it looks suuuper good

[lone mango]

https://a.co/d/6EHsQvx

[craggy shoal]

24" 1440p monitor is kinda goofy

Not bad though. It just means more pixel density lol

Just rare

[lone mango]

This is a little bigger than 24 which is nice because thats my 1080p size rn too

Honestly ima buy it

Bro I spent so much money recently

[craggy shoal]

I might potentially get a monitor from my friend soon. It'll be nice because it's the same exact monitor as my main monitor lol. I'll finally have matching monitors

[lone mango]

[craggy shoal]

That's okay me too

You'll bounce back lolll

[lone mango]

Yeah im down a lot atm but will recoup most of it after I sell my old parts

[rigid sinew]

hi everyone

have a good day today

[pliant berry]

A bird egg fell on my windshield

Im having a great day

[rancid juniper]

oh its not native

[craggy shoal]

yeah unfortunately

[rancid juniper]

kinda red flag energy for me

[craggy shoal]

But I mean that's GPUs lately I guess

[rancid juniper]

😔

[craggy shoal]

Also on DLSS Balanced. Only Balanced

BUT

on my laptop***************

[rigid sinew]

i got my phone stolen friday and i had to pay $519 in taxes 🙂

plus $250 to replace my phone

[opaque sedge]

honestly kinda afraid to get the oblivion remake

cuz in wilds even my 4070 super gets drops to 60 in dlss quality with med/high settings

[lone mango]

Birdegg

[craggy shoal]

You'll get 60fps on your 4070 Super. It still looks amazon even with DLSS set to Balanced at medium settings

[opaque sedge]

looking for benchmarks rn cant seem to find many

[lone mango]

[rancid juniper]

that is true but it proves that the game is that resource heavy

every UE5 project is heavy af

[rigid sinew]

i cried, she cried, he cried, they cried, we cried, all cried

[opaque sedge]

btw whats the combat like?

[craggy shoal]

Easy

[pliant berry]

Looks like it’s been a great week for us both 🙂

[proud jackal]

Do we buy oblivion remastered

[craggy shoal]

Basically like Skyrim

[opaque sedge]

i cried cuz no more nuts...

[rancid juniper]

buy it on sale or play it on gamepass

[lone mango]

I think I spent like 560 with tax going to am5 itx

I gotta sell my stuff asap dawg

[opaque sedge]

did u buy mhwilds and are now used to sketchy textures that come with upscaling?

i did

[rigid sinew]

idgi

[proud jackal]

I have 4090 so I don't see it

[opaque sedge]

so now i might get the oblivion remake too

[opaque sedge]

dammit

[opaque sedge]

https://tenor.com/view/gus-gusfring-gif-24463299

@craggy shoal are u playing on gamepass or did u buy it from the steam store?

[craggy shoal]

GamePass

That wouldn't matter for performance though

(I don't think)

[opaque sedge]

Nah i was just wondering if i should sign up for gamepass or buy it on steam or fanatical

@rancid juniper are there any drawbacks to buying games on fanatical?

Like with support and stuff

[craggy shoal]

I mean you could refund it within two hours after purchasing if you don't like it

[rancid juniper]

nope, though the only thing i will avoid is those stupid mystery games they keep promoting

[opaque sedge]

Icic

[fresh timber]

How much is it

[rancid juniper]

$50

[opaque sedge]

50 bucks on steam and 41.49 on fanatical

[opaque sedge]

For the base game

[fresh timber]

too much, make it $20

[opaque sedge]

Dlc is an extra 10 whether u buy it seperate or the deluxe edition

[rancid juniper]

gonna have to wait a year or two then

[fresh timber]

is it even good

marvel rivals good or nah

[opaque sedge]

Open world rpg?

[rancid juniper]

if you like this game or skyrim then yea it may be good

[opaque sedge]

How many of those are there

[fresh timber]

does it top helldivers

[craggy shoal]

Do you get bored when you're watching videos on YouTube?

[rancid juniper]

thats if you can tolerate bethesda bs

[fresh timber]

i regually do swap

[craggy shoal]

swap?

[fresh timber]

i watch fixorflop videos fully tho

[opaque sedge]

What are bethesda open world maps like?

[fresh timber]

i get bored of a video and swap to a new one

[craggy shoal]

Bethesda games are a little slower. You might get bored of it lol

[rancid juniper]

i dont play their games all that much, motor has the answer

[opaque sedge]

If its entirely based on the older game and just looks new with crisper gamplay doesn’t it have a chance to be good

[rancid juniper]

and he's right on the money because i went to sleep playing skyrim and left

[opaque sedge]

@craggy shoal what are ur thoughts so far

[craggy shoal]

Not very big but TES games are slowed perfectly to the point that the game feels massive

[opaque sedge]

Damn they doing time optimizations instead of performance optimization

[rancid juniper]

lol

[craggy shoal]

I've never fully played Oblivion but the remaster feels great so far. I'm actually at work playing it on my laptop rn, so idk how it sounds. The frame rate is fine. The visuals are actually very good, even with everything at medium settings and DLSS set to Balanced (60-90 fps on my 4070 8GB and i7 14650HX after leaving the first dungeon)

[fresh timber]

yeah i like faster games

[rancid juniper]

i like visual stimulation*

[opaque sedge]

Mhwilds has a pretty good pace ngl currently on the second zone

[craggy shoal]

Might be a little slow for you lol

[fresh timber]

Correct

[opaque sedge]

I like meat stimulation

Wait

Pause

[craggy shoal]

lmaoooo

Maybe a little too specific 💀

[opaque sedge]

HAH

[craggy shoal]

lmao

[opaque sedge]

No

[rigid sinew]

stop or time out

[opaque sedge]

K

[lone mango]

My brother got oblivion and when he changes video settings the game freaks out

[craggy shoal]

I haven't tried that yet

[lone mango]

Also the character flickers when you change the age slider

[craggy shoal]

I've played it for like maybe 45 minutes though. I haven't noticed much yet

[lone mango]

Disappears and comes back super fast

Never change bethesda

When you go to fullscreen the game goes to 2 fps

The game is still showing the companies at the beginning as I am typing this

Virtuos logo is gone now

[velvet summit]

Too cooked

[fresh timber]

10gig networking or oblivion

Which one

[lone mango]

Ok why wasd wont move

[lone mango]

10g this game sucks already

Typical aaa game

Fsr enabled by default

How did I know it was gonna be like this

[fresh timber]

I mean I would enable it

I want fps

[worn wave]

Probably has forced TAA even if you turn off upscaling so you might as well get the perf boost

[lone mango]

Had to do player.resurrect and now can move and dialogue starts

[fresh timber]

welp im not buying this bad game

ima go play helldivers the better game

[lone mango]

True

[worn wave]

Baseddivers (they let you turn off TAA)

[fresh timber]

Yall down to dive later

[lone mango]

He didnt turn off fsr but I did see tsr above it so probably yeah

Probably not im in a little warframe phase rn

[lone mango]

From a 4 year old reddit post

Seems that its just a graphical overhaul with how I saw the ai behave

[nocturne flicker]

Does it have better gamepad support

Iirc OG Oblivion has wonky gamepad controls

[worn wave]

I saw someone on Reddit say the default were "a little clunky" but you can rebind

It released to both Xbox and playstation so I'm guessing they put work into the controller support

[nocturne flicker]

So did the original Oblivion, but the PC version had weird analog movement issues iirc. It has been a while so I may be remembering wrong

[worn wave]

Oh I didn't see anything about the kbm controls. It's UE5 so presumably the character controller has been redone?

[nocturne flicker]

You know what it was, I think Oblivion on PC did not have gamepad support so you had to map the arrow key movements to a gamepad

[worn wave]

Oh lol

Yeah I'm guessing that will be fixed and PC version will have native controller support

[nocturne flicker]

The store page lists gamepad support so that is a good sign

[craggy shoal]

OG Oblivion didn't have gamepad support on PC

[lone mango]

Full res photorealistic goblin is cursed

I dont like this it looks too crisp

Where’s that charm ya dig

[worn wave]

No way it's crisp if it's UE5

Blurry temporal slop all over

Vaseline coat on the camera lens

[craggy shoal]

I actually like how it looks lol

I was surprised when I found that I had DLSS enabled and the game was at medium settings

[worn wave]

Unless they actually took the time to make their own TAA implementation...?

Yeah dlss transformer is actually pretty good clarity wise

Wear sunglasses. that's what I do when I drive

[fresh timber]

I gotta get glasses sun glasses

I can drive with our glasses but not clearly

I won’t be reading road signs, I will see car

[pliant berry]

you can often get prescription sunglasses cheap or free from insurance

[devout forum]

Or just get the UV darkening coating on your glasses

[pliant berry]

well I don't think you want your normal glasses to be dark all the time

[nocturne flicker]

They aren't dark all the time, only when exposed to UV light

[pliant berry]

oh you mean progressives

[nocturne flicker]

Progressive lenses are ones with different prescription strengths at various parts of the glasses. The ones that darken in sunlight are transition lenses

[pliant berry]

oh yeah transition

I was close

[nocturne flicker]

Incidentally, due to the way the transition process works, the lenses darken less and for shorter time when warm

[pliant berry]

they also just wear out over time. personally I'm not a fan of them

[nocturne flicker]

They usually last for three years at max, but you should be able to get new lenses every year or two anyways as part of vision insurance so it is less of an issue

Mine are about 7-8 years old and only an arc of the lenses darken on a sunny day really well

The rest is just a minor tint

[devout forum]

Honestly if you need prescriptions

You wanna get your eyes checked every year anyway

And there's PROBABLY going to be some minor correction needed every time you get your eyes checked

[pliant berry]

after a point you don't really need to go every year. I only go when I know I have a problem.

[devout forum]

Even every 2 years would be perfectly fine

[nocturne flicker]

I went to one for the first time since 2019 two weeks ago. I'm just waiting for them to get a pair of frames in and then I can get new lenses

[devout forum]

I kinda regret not getting transition lenses

Especially now that I'm regularly working

[dusk knot]

Hm

[pliant berry]

my vision is pretty bad but it hasn't changed much in the past 5-7 years so i've really only been going to get new frames when they wear out. I used to get transitions but now I just keep it has 1 pair with progressives and 1 tinted with cheap frame

[icy ore]

https://tenor.com/view/oblivion-indeed-oblivion-indeed-gif-27376941

[proud jackal]

[fresh timber]

If your insurance will cover it

lol

I won’t get new ones till next year

[nocturne flicker]

Don't worry, next console gen there'll be another rerelease of Skyrim

UE5 Skyrim

I guarantee there will atleast be another in 2031

Though since TES 6 entered production after Starfield and Starfield itself took 8 years, maybe not 2031

[lone mango]

Oh no its gonna run even worse

Bro just upgrade bro

Its not even hard man just buy a new card

Well here is my reaction

Novideo

[nocturne flicker]

Recommendations: 16 core cpu and current 90 class card for 1080p

[lone mango]

Novideo 6080 ti super

[nocturne flicker]

I already don't have a good opinion of Skyrim, I can just imagine how I'll feel when it is put in UE5 and the entire decade and a half of modding history is made irrelevant

[dusk knot]

Barley able to keep up with the 5090

With 16gb of vram

[tranquil pebble]

at 30 FPS. with DLSS

and then if your FPS is a single digit too high, everything breaks

Because of her, there will be less live action remakes. Thank god

reminds me of AAA video games

(most)

[rancid juniper]

You will buy the game, and YOU'LL LIKE IT

[idle nexus]

& it will be $100

probably collect & sell your data

& YOU WILL ARBITRATE

[rancid juniper]

GTA fans after admitting that they will pay $100 base price for GTA 6:

[dusk knot]

Ik you will

[idle nexus]

I watched a video that raises a good point about that whole $80+ for games

[rancid juniper]

hell no

[worn wave]

Don't forget they'll also buy a whole console if they don't have one bc they don't wanna wait for a PC release

[idle nexus]

expectations are gonna get so high

[rancid juniper]

i mean it was rumored that it took atleast 2 Billion dollars to make that project

[idle nexus]

I can't wait for Nintendo Switch 2

[dusk knot]

Hell yess

[idle nexus]

so worth it

[worn wave]

Tbh $80 makes sense if you think about inflation. It's just shocking to gamers cause AAA has been $60 for so long

[dusk knot]

GTA 6 is going to define gaming for the next 10 years

$100 worth

[rancid juniper]

bet there would be a $100 star wars game and you'd buy it

[dusk knot]

Jk

[dusk knot]

If it is amazing....I will

[idle nexus]

Starfield would've been worth $80 for sure

[rancid juniper]

wow

[rancid juniper]

whoa whoa whoa

are you hearing yourself?

[idle nexus]

my point exactly lmao

[rancid juniper]

[nocturne flicker]

It'd make more sense if they were selling physical games and monetization practices didn't exist. However the absolute majority of sales are digital and microtransactions exist

[idle nexus]

I hate on the EU a lot

but damn do they run circles around us when it comes to consumer protection

[worn wave]

Inflation affects digital products not just physical. The labor to make them costs more.

(assuming the devs are getting raises to match inflation)

[rancid juniper]

imma keep it real bro, if you told your mom/dad to buy an 80-100 game they'll likely say no

not even likely

they WILL

[nocturne flicker]

Inflation impacts digital products less. There is less actual impact on the cost of sale and wages do not track to inflation, so labor cost increases are not 1 to 1

[idle nexus]

EU wants to make it that you have to allow people to buy the exact amount of [insert stupid game currency] you need to buy something instead of Fortnite type trash where you can get whatever v-bucks for $9 or moar for like $20 but you only need an amount that falls between that

[worn wave]

Yes this is based

[rancid juniper]

had to double take but this is the way

[idle nexus]

lol Sega Genesis cost $199 wth happened

[nocturne flicker]

Arguably you can say games that have servers require more money for maintenance of those servers, but multiplayer modes also add opportunities for microtransactions that most AAA companies take anyways

[rancid juniper]

😳

damn thats low

[idle nexus]

I could've written it better sorry lol

[safe cape]

UE5 💀

[worn wave]

Keep in mind that microtransactions in multiplayer games have replaced "historical" DLC. COD/BF used to have paid map/gun expansions (which as a business model i actually prefer but it does split the playerbase)

[rancid juniper]

its fine, had to OC my brain a bit more

[nocturne flicker]

CoD and BF had paid expansions the same exact time they had lootboxes

[idle nexus]

there's more EU wants to do too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCkUUm0zDLY

[rancid juniper]

bro, the EA lootboxes situation years ago...

It was wild

[worn wave]

It's a bunch of publishers and then just "rivals" lol

[opaque sedge]

Bruh wth https://youtu.be/JD0hzW21-oI?si=XDYiS2jByoTDEjOT

[rancid juniper]

the EU may be slow but they always try to come in clutch whenever they can

[opaque sedge]

Ik its mostly in a closed area but still

[rancid juniper]

big respect to them for trying to make consumers lives a bit better

[opaque sedge]

Clutch…

I cant do it

[idle nexus]

lol all because of some horse game

[rancid juniper]

what?

[rancid juniper]

bethesda opened pandora's box

[opaque sedge]

I’m forbidden from it

[opaque sedge]

Oh god what did they do now

[rancid juniper]

no no they're the reason why we have DLCs for games

oh wait ive misread, but it still applies somewhat

[opaque sedge]

[fresh timber]

Why do people act like ue5 sucks, look at Fortnite, people pulling 600+ fps

[opaque sedge]

Ur telling me

If it wasn’t for Bethesda

[rancid juniper]

Funny how horses cause issues

[idle nexus]

lol Fortnite is a cartoon tho

[fresh timber]

Still ue5

[opaque sedge]

Shadow of the erdtree would have likely been a free upgrade for elden ring

[rancid juniper]

Competitive game + Developers who know their own engine in and out

Fortnite still suffers from stuttering anyways

no matter what config you got

[fresh timber]

So what I’m hearing is, developers should learn how the engine works so games don’t run bad

[rancid juniper]

yes

thats the point

but the scope of the game is also a factor here

[fresh timber]

My friend stutters he has the same specs as me, but he runs 4 sticks 3200 and a rx6700 and he stutters

[fresh timber]

Fortnite can look good asf at max settings and still get great fps

[safe cape]

30 fps not bad

[rancid juniper]

if you have an expensive build sure

[nocturne flicker]

An open world rpg or large scale rpg in UE5 is not the same as a competitive esports shooter

[idle nexus]

watch some of this dude's videos. He explains it way better than I could https://www.youtube.com/@ThreatInteractive/videos

[fresh timber]

My rx6600 build could increase the settings well and still get fps that’s not bad 😭😭

[nocturne flicker]

The devs for these games are also not the dev teams most intimately involved in UE5 itself

[fresh timber]

Will watch later, I’m in the car right now

[rancid juniper]

Alright, 1080p max no RT DX12 and pull up those fps numbers

[fresh timber]

I’m not home rn can’t

[idle nexus]

I think this one covers UE the most https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M00DGjAP-mU

[rancid juniper]

alr, anytime when you feel ready just ping me

[safe cape]

thats indie game console

[fresh timber]

Will do

It’s a rx6600 so I might have to go to like high or something but it will still run more than 60

Or be exactly at it

[rancid juniper]

This guy is the strongest UE5 hater with proper evidence backed up

[idle nexus]

smart as heck too

[rancid juniper]

for sure

[fresh timber]

Ue5 is better than what the crew games use

[idle nexus]

like he could be making it all up & it's so complex I'd have no clue

[fresh timber]

The engine the crew games use are locked at mf 60fps

[idle nexus]

lol bethesda's engine is so good

[rancid juniper]

till this day i still dont understand why they did that

🗿

[idle nexus]

Bethesda's engine is why Starfield is top 5 games ever made tbh

[rancid juniper]

alright bro, its time to go to bed

take a nap, i know you've been stressed out today

[fresh timber]

Remember kids, ue5 isn’t the worst engine, side note do you know how I can fix my friends issues on Fortnite, 13600kf cpu, 32gb ddr4, and rx6700 at 1080p dx12 all low

[idle nexus]

lol I hate Starfield

[fresh timber]

It’s so.. empty

[rancid juniper]

dont use either nanite or lumen, and don't max out shadows iirc

[fresh timber]

Give me a no man’s sky + sat citizen

[rancid juniper]

you can have a playable yet good looking experience

[idle nexus]

10000 planets, 9994 of which have crap copied & pasted from others

[fresh timber]

I said dx12 all low

[rancid juniper]

at that point, just do perf mode

[fresh timber]

Nobody uses all that slop in comp

[fresh timber]

Not good for AMD

[nocturne flicker]

Sometimes I wonder how Bethesda can dumb down and make lower quality dialogue than Fallout 4 and Skyrim

[rancid juniper]

what why?

[fresh timber]

On my system atleast dx12 all low has better fps stability and 1% lows

[rancid juniper]

literally the opposite on my 7800xt

[nocturne flicker]

I imagine it takes a lot of work

[idle nexus]

wym? it's great how you get 4 dialogue options (yes, yes, no, leave) for everything

[fresh timber]

Odd

[rancid juniper]

i get lower FPS on DX12 vs DX11 on the same settings

[fresh timber]

@honest birch knows more

[fresh timber]

I get lower average fps but the 1% lows make or break it for me

[rancid juniper]

thats typically crucial for a competitive game anyways

[nocturne flicker]

You said synths should be slaves and are just pieces of metal junk but but but, if you change your mind you can still join the Railroad

[fresh timber]

I pull 180-240 fps anyways idc

[rancid juniper]

lol

[fresh timber]

I can’t see more than 240 of it

[opaque sedge]

Ngl i kinda want a game thats like no mans sky when it comes to the world design but with action packed combat like almost darksouls like

[nocturne flicker]

I know you said the Minutemen are a dumb concept to my face, but I could use your help if you ever change your mind

[rancid juniper]

impossible

[opaque sedge]

Why

Make it possible

Thats what games are for right

[fresh timber]

I want space engineers, no man’s sky, and star citizen in one game

[rancid juniper]

☠️

[opaque sedge]

To convey the impossible

[nocturne flicker]

I want an X game combined with controls that don't make me want to die

[fresh timber]

Space engineers for its building mechanics for bases and ships, star citizen for its massive worlds, no man’s sky for its story

[opaque sedge]

Whats atar citizen?

[opaque sedge]

No man’s sky has a story 💀 ?

[idle nexus]

why does Fortnite still use such an old DLSS version? There have been 51 updates since if you include betas

[rancid juniper]

compatibility reasons likely

[idle nexus]

it's sad that Fallout London is like 10x better than the original game lol

[idle nexus]

lol so 0 of 51 versions were compatible? jeez

I could force it to swap to later version but EAC will go bananas

[rancid juniper]

the reason why bethesda games are so loved especially skyrim is the modding scene alone

they singlehandedly carried everything

[fresh timber]

Yes!!

[idle nexus]

I think that's why GTA kicked so much ass

[rancid juniper]

lol

[rancid juniper]

GTA online, and modding

GTA SA is still alive thanks to modding

[nocturne flicker]

Skyrim, the game where you can just piss off into the wilderness and do the exact same dungeons over and over and over and over again, become the guild leader of everything or become the most important person in the world who gets harassed by bandits on a daily basis

[fresh timber]

I think helldivers is better than all those games, or modded Minecraft

[rancid juniper]

nvm DX12 is super smooth

DX11 clouded my judgement

[opaque sedge]

Ue5 works in dx11?

[rancid juniper]

(this is without nanite or lumen)

[rancid juniper]

yea

[fresh timber]

Lmfao told you

[opaque sedge]

Damn doesn’t it use that raytracing specific lighting or smth

And isn’t rt only dx12

[fresh timber]

Turn everyone to all low it’s more fun

I can’t stand how builds look when I increase my settings

They are so distracting

[rancid juniper]

yea

[rancid juniper]

😂

I play zero build all the time

i dont play default

[fresh timber]

Disgusting

Play builds it’s easy

[rancid juniper]

not trying to sweat here

[frigid stag]

There’s no sweat 😂

Unless you go ranked

Just need 2017 build skills. One ramp 2 walls at most

And run away if they start building a lot towards you

[idle nexus]

I hate building

it's a totally different game imo

[fresh timber]

Ranked still is easy

Lmfao

Gold lobby’s are easy

[frigid stag]

I was getting smoked but still ranking up xD

[fresh timber]

Diamond is easy still

[rancid juniper]

fortnite players when one shot is fired:

[fresh timber]

He’ll unreal can be easy

[rancid juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/fortnite-gif-26027131

[frigid stag]

Na they can build a lot in plat

[fresh timber]

Ehh they ain’t good tho

[frigid stag]

I got boxed last time bro 😭

[fresh timber]

Me and my duo can build well, we just sit their and watch

[frigid stag]

They edit so fast

[fresh timber]

Then we chop

[idle nexus]

it's just spamming walls

like I can't get into it

[fresh timber]

Wanna know the secrete, if you don’t build they forget how to play

[rancid juniper]

lol

[idle nexus]

Also, cross-platform is cool but did you know that playing on PC is the ONLY way you do NOT get aim assist?

[frigid stag]

They start building towards me first

[fresh timber]

They full peace me into my box, I sit their waiting to 200 pump them

[frigid stag]

So i have to either shoot their ramps or go up with them

[fresh timber]

Idiots

[frigid stag]

I go up and then I get boxed

[fresh timber]

Don’t get in my box, I’m waiting for you

[frigid stag]

I probably just need to figure out my key binds

[fresh timber]

I figured mines out years ago

[frigid stag]

Editing takes me a while to click the squares

[idle nexus]

Playing Fortnite at 4k is kinda derp cuz it's so tiny to shoot people far away

[fresh timber]

Weirdo

[frigid stag]

😭

[fresh timber]

Wot

[frigid stag]

You have to click squares then confirm

I even tried controller cause people said “aim assistis basically cheating” lol

Aim assist*

[idle nexus]

I can never get the mouse sensitivity right lol

[fresh timber]

Me and my friend warm up with duo box fight, tell me why all we do is say, good game, well played when we absolute beat the smack out the enemy and these two south side accent ahh kids start calling us the N slur

[nocturne flicker]

Because the CoD kids don't play CoD anymore

[frigid stag]

The cod kids have jobs and families now

They’re like 30

[fresh timber]

80% of the time the enemy team leaves, we had one kid get so mad cause we ruined his streak he had to invite a random dude to poop on us we wasn’t even trying that hard the random dude left and we started just popping on the original kid again until we left cause our food was broken

I think it should be illegal to quit just cause I’m better than you

[idle nexus]

Also, I'm frankly still confused. Is there lag on the bullet flying through the air so you have to lead shots (like sniper) or does a shot only count if you click when your crosshair is on the heckers?

[fresh timber]

Depends on the gun

Some are hit scan, some are not

[nocturne flicker]

The CoD kids meaning the type of people, not the actual CoD kids from 15 years ago 💀

[frigid stag]

Hunter rifle is op af

[idle nexus]

the drop-off on snipers is so stupidly unrealistic

why do grenade launchers do such pathetic damage?

[frigid stag]

O I see

Lol

The ones now are more tame

[nocturne flicker]

Are they?

[idle nexus]

lol Black Ops 1 was my jam

& MW2

[nocturne flicker]

I don't play shooters anymore, so I dunno

[idle nexus]

3-round burst M16A4

so fire

[lone mango]

Give that thread a break

[frigid stag]

Funny coincidence if you tea bag enough people on warzone or the right person, your game will suddenly start lagging

[idle nexus]

give your eyes a break

[frigid stag]

All of a sudden with no possible explanation surely

I think it might be ddos or something

[nocturne flicker]

Activision censoring

[frigid stag]

[rancid juniper]

Anti-Teabagging is crazy

[frigid stag]

It wasn’t me tea bagging, It was some guy I was watching stream it for me

[lone mango]

[honest birch]

Hi

[honest birch]

No mans sky has a lot more to offer

[lone mango]

So dont use the features that epic is pushing with unreal 5

In other words avoid unreal 5 because developers will use epics slop

That moment when you walk outside in oblivion and get 40 fps

[lone mango]

Ahhh windows 11 give my eyes a break

Cant look anymore

[opaque sedge]

guys am i crazy for these rebinds

[rancid juniper]

☠️

[lone mango]

I was expecting half of the frame rate, not a third

The hell man

Plus it freaks out when you change graphics settings its so garbage

[rancid juniper]

UE5 experience

[opaque sedge]

bruh

i was hoping to get it ngl...

really wanted to play another open world rpg

[lone mango]

My brother got game pass a couple days ago and downloaded it

Good thing I didnt experience that

Whats funny is that its just as janky as it used to be, it was just graphically redone in ue5

[rancid juniper]

yep

[cursive oasis]

good thing honestly

[rancid juniper]

they apparently still run the original game logic

UE5 is just the visual layer ontop of that

[lone mango]

imo its not a full remaster tho

They just moved all of the clunk over

[lone mango]

Yeah the ai just got that type of behavior

You know

[nocturne flicker]

So it is still Gamebryo with a UE5 visual layer?

[rancid juniper]

yuh

[lone mango]

It looks pretty similar to other ue5 games

They all have this photorealistic look

boring

[nocturne flicker]

Guess it would be actual work to even port it over to Creation Engine

Can't have that on an Oblivion Remaster

[lone mango]

Yeah they probably outsourced to a bunch of random fellas that do ue5 stuff

[nocturne flicker]

They did

[lone mango]

The true slop and it seems people love the slop

[nocturne flicker]

They outsourced some work to Virtuos

And seeing as they've done UE5 remastering, that is probably exactly what they did

Here is the source code for our old game we want nothing to do with, put UE5 over it and we'll call it a remaster

[lone mango]

when you block, there is a trail that gets left behind because of the upscaling

[worn wave]

UE5 slop UE5 slop

[lone mango]

Like a slowmo effect in a cartoon or something

[fresh timber]

im home @rancid juniper

time to test

[ancient swift]

Can you turn off the upscaling?

[lone mango]

Yeah but it runs even worse

[opaque sedge]

Man…

[fresh timber]

i love this

sidenote rx6600 doesnt do 1440p fornite very well

[opaque sedge]

Modular controller with xbox elite 2 back paddled and two extra shoulder bumpers god… why do i have to broke

Oof

[fresh timber]

@rancid juniper had to see cause capframe x wont work but 59

lets put it down to more.. reasonable settings

in pubs this would die

turned the preset down a single notch.. already doubled the fps

fortniet is the ultimate ue5 game

[nocturne flicker]

The doesn't make me like UE5 more

[lone mango]

100 fps with nothing going on

This is unreal

[rancid juniper]

bruh

going into a real match that fps will tank dummy hard

[lone mango]

I dont have high hopes for the next deep rock game since they also use unreal

[fresh timber]

do i risk my kd for you

[nocturne flicker]

If one setting preset level can reduce frame rate by 50% in a low resource environment, that is crap

[fresh timber]

we dropping

[nocturne flicker]

It isn't like there is much graphical quality difference between those two images either. It still looks like cartoony Fortnite crap of the same texture quality. Something just managed to nuke the performance

[fresh timber]

idk im using game streaming

i dont think my graphic settings are the problem right now

once i land im still getting 100fps

[nocturne flicker]

Ultimate UE5 game
The game:

[fresh timber]

my main rig doesnt have this issue.. idk why maybe shaders or something, first time booting fn on this machine

could i be out of v ram

[lone mango]

Go outside and see what you get

Its gonna be half of that

[fresh timber]

i found the issue

vram is pretty much getting maxxed

[idle nexus]

8gb kinda rough

my 3070 is useless

[lone mango]

Unfortunately it is supposed to be

[fresh timber]

i cant play on this

i ned 1440p all low

note to self ue5 doesnt like 8gb vram

[idle nexus]

no one does

[lone mango]

Meanwhile the most demanding area in warframe uses 5

[idle nexus]

I think in like the next month or so

[idle nexus]

I'm gonna buy ICs & destroy make 3070 16gb

[fresh timber]

good thing im upgrading my 7700xt to a 9070xt next month, then my 2nd rig will take the 7700xt

[idle nexus]

get 9070xt

& uh hold on

[fresh timber]

i tried playing 4k on my rx6600.. didnt go well even when i killed the settings, my 7700xt can handel it in a way i like

[rancid juniper]

yuh

[fresh timber]

i sent what i got

[rancid juniper]

im assuming ur good

ok

[fresh timber]

100fps in pubs after i landed

[idle nexus]

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VNVVXW6?&linkCode=sl1&tag=ufddeals-20&linkId=8ef5871b3a10c1729526224d2ee94bc2&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl

[fresh timber]

well not when im remoted in the the computer

[idle nexus]

& that

[opaque sedge]

Ngl these rebinds work pretty well with the gunlance and dual blades

[rancid juniper]

😔

[fresh timber]

low end hardware can run 100fps at high

thats the tldr

[opaque sedge]

The attacks feel so much better when you use the bumpers

[lone mango]

Thats for 9070 to flash xt bios on it

[idle nexus]

I mean get 9070 & this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VNVVXW6?&linkCode=sl1&tag=ufddeals-20&linkId=8ef5871b3a10c1729526224d2ee94bc2&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl

lol ya exactly

[fresh timber]

what im getting at is, devs are lazy asf for ue5 and dont optmise the game at all

getting 100fps on damn fortnite dam near maxxed out

[lone mango]

I think soon there will be a tool that will do it in windows

But for now you gotta get in there

[fresh timber]

is 9070 worth

[idle nexus]

ya I dunno why ATIFlash hasn't been updated yet lol

[lone mango]

Depends on price difference

[fresh timber]

i dont wanna make the buying a 7700xt over a 7800xt mistake again 😦

[idle nexus]

you turn 9070 into 9070xt essentially

it's like almost the same lol

[lone mango]

Welcome back vega

[opaque sedge]

I mean its fortnite i srsly doubt its got much graphical detail or complexity compared to other ue5 games are tryna achieve but lose with missing textures from heavy upscaling required to run them

[idle nexus]

it outperforms vega changes by a lot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXnQjwW-5JY

[fresh timber]

almost 50% imrpovment stock from my card

[lone mango]

Somewhere between 10-15% slower than xt

[opaque sedge]

Ngl i kinda want a 9070xt

[fresh timber]

1015%

[lone mango]

Like 12%

[idle nexus]

this is my favorite YT video name rn lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdZoa6Gzl6s

[lone mango]

My keys are not registering

[fresh timber]

lmfao the mc server almost crashed when i ran forntite

[opaque sedge]

Microcenter would prolly let me return my 4070super since i bought their warranty by citing the recent nvidia driver issues but the issue is stock

[fresh timber]

they let u trade in

[lone mango]

_ 6 and another key occasionally dont pick up

[opaque sedge]

Well they have a trade in program but it aint good 💀

But their insurance u have the option to buy is pretty solid and convenient

[idle nexus]

you ever just use HWunboxed's into music & add a little bit to it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TUUbyKRWJ4

[lone mango]

Lmaoooo

Yeah they use the same one

[idle nexus]

go to 0:44

[opaque sedge]

But its still an extra expense for no extra computational performance technically

[lone mango]

He used a different part of the song

[fresh timber]

i acccidently lost the screwws connecting my gpu io to the gpu it self they donte even hold it

side not i didn trealise how bad 8gb vram is

[opaque sedge]

Bro 💀

[fresh timber]

cant even run 1080p with 8gb vram

[opaque sedge]

Bro’s giving me ideas

[icy ore]

The heck 💀

[fresh timber]

why couldnt nvidia just give the 5060ti 12gb vram and call it a day

[opaque sedge]

@idle nexus have u played mhwilds?

[lone mango]

I got a cl32 6400 kit from micro center yesterday

[fresh timber]

cloud

[lone mango]

There were two left

[fresh timber]

stop giving me ideas

[lone mango]

[fresh timber]

wtf

[idle nexus]

did it POST at UCLK:MCLK 1:1?

[fresh timber]

microcenter website makes no sense

[lone mango]

I spent 550 dollars in 2 days

[fresh timber]

do they just not show out of st ock anymore

[lone mango]

There is this too good to be true 1440p monitor for 180 on amazon

Limited time sale

I bought it

[fresh timber]

i dont think im getting a 9070xt

those pricse are ew

[opaque sedge]

Hmm maybe i should check out the microcenter store this weekend

[lone mango]

So thats like 730

Lmfao

[opaque sedge]

Guys if i have the option to change my 4070super to a 9070xt should i do it?

[lone mango]

I gotta sell my old stuff asap

[fresh timber]

i think ill look for a used 4070ti at that point k

[nocturne flicker]

Is it the one that a review said it was ghetto

[lone mango]

Yeah so many people bought amd that it is completely out of stock

Like nvidia level

[opaque sedge]

@rancid juniper what do u think?

Not gonna destroy my gpu ofc

Gonna cite the recent driver issues

[lone mango]

But its not like nvidia where they barely supply, rather its from so many people buying amd

[lone mango]

Lmaoo

[opaque sedge]

As the reasoning

[fresh timber]

hopefully t heirs supply next month

[lone mango]

Nah this is different

[nocturne flicker]

Sorry, it was bootleg

[opaque sedge]

Yeah same

650 dolla cards would be nice

[fresh timber]

if i have enough gmoney to rebuild my pc i will rebuild everything minus the gpu

[lone mango]

I remember what you are talking about nah this is a different one

[opaque sedge]

Cant expect msrp anymore

[fresh timber]

yes u cab

:kek`

no more tarrif on compooter parts

now pricee raises are just cause they can

[rancid juniper]

not the biggest jump but it is a jump, if you don't care about RT/CUDA/Nvenc and all other nvidia goodies then yea you can if the price is right

[fresh timber]

i just realsied if i get a 9070xt it wil be faster than @acoustic palm cause hes gen 4 and i have gen 5

[acoustic palm]

does that even like

effect how good it is

[fresh timber]

a few %

[lone mango]

Amd encoding is nearly identical to nvenc besides h264, until rdna 4

[acoustic palm]

how do i even get pcie 5

[lone mango]

Now rdna 4 avc is the same as everyone else

[fresh timber]

buy a better motherboard

[lone mango]

Or almost as good

[rancid juniper]

AMD's encoding is pretty dang good

[acoustic palm]

oh

[fresh timber]

yall think gen 5 will mater when they give gpus 4 pcie lane of gen 5

[lone mango]

Yeah really the big thing now is rocm

[fresh timber]

rtx 5050 with 4 gen 5 lanes

[rancid juniper]

Gen 5 tbh dont matter

[fresh timber]

when

[lone mango]

So people can do work on amd cards

[fresh timber]

i bet they said that when we went from gen 3 to 4

[rancid juniper]

yea rocm is only great on linux so far

hopefully they can fully do windows

[lone mango]

This is true

[opaque sedge]

X670e b850 or b870 boards are the ones that support pcie5 i think oh i think b650e has a pcie5 slot too

B650 doesn’t tho

[acoustic palm]

damn

[rancid juniper]

☠️

[acoustic palm]

whatever

[lone mango]

5090 is finally showing the limits of gen 3

Took that long

[opaque sedge]

Some b650 boards do support pcie5 nvme drives tho

Which is prolly useless to most people

[acoustic palm]

idk if mine does

but uh]

i have like

[fresh timber]

5060ti 8gb shoudlnt exist, i cant wait to see people with 5060ti come here for technical support

[acoustic palm]

960 evo oem version

[fresh timber]

how to fix ur 5060ti 8gb, sell it

[lone mango]

My friend has a 4060ti 8gb from a prbuilt and is downloading oblivion

[fresh timber]

oof

[lone mango]

My condolences

[fresh timber]

i remember 2 years ago when 8gb was fine

[opaque sedge]

Huh

[fresh timber]

[opaque sedge]

Did cloud block me

[fresh timber]

@lone mango did you block sore

if so dont respond

[lone mango]

I said to not go above medium or else you will have vram problems

[lone mango]

Yeah

[fresh timber]

LMfao why u block him

[nocturne flicker]

Too much meat

[lone mango]

I couldnt read that fast enough before dyno removed it

[rancid juniper]

this

[lone mango]

Bro is like 10 years old spamming deez nuts

He was annoying everyone at that time

[opaque sedge]

Its been months since then 💀

[fresh timber]

lmfao

[nocturne flicker]

Yeah he moved on to spamming meat

[lone mango]

Cant be older than 12

[opaque sedge]

I’m 21 now…

[fresh timber]

21 spamming deeznuts, what a lie

[dense locust]

Anyone gaming

Heck even for productivity it’s not worth the price premium

[tranquil pebble]

at least they are not spamming what CoD kids do

[lone mango]

I read fortnite man im done for

[nocturne flicker]

GG

[opaque sedge]

Never played cod

What do they spam?

[nocturne flicker]

Uh

Well

Just look up the vids on youtube

[opaque sedge]

That awkwardness…

Is it slurs…

[nocturne flicker]

If it is 480p and there is screaming then that works

[opaque sedge]

And i’m the 12 year old…💀

[nocturne flicker]

I mean, to be fair I read Fortnite. Probably because the comment about CoD kids reminded me of the convo from an hour or so ago

[tranquil pebble]

They should add noob tubes to fortnite just to troll the playerbase

[fresh timber]

if you think hdds suck, im getting up to gen 3 speeds with them

[nocturne flicker]

I like hard drives

[lone mango]

Sometimes I can transfer something at 1 gig per second but its for a really small burst

[tranquil pebble]

They are a tool ill suited for some uses, but excel at others... just like SSDs are

[fresh timber]

i deadass could game off my hdds

[lone mango]

Then it goes down to like 150

[nocturne flicker]

Metal brick go brr...rrr...rrrr....rrrrr

[fresh timber]

ssds suck

frfr

i wont even have the random read write issues after a while

important files get cached in ram lmfaoooo

id litterly only notice the network latency after a while

[nocturne flicker]

If the storage device doesn't weigh a couple of pounds and could become very deadly if you accidentally drop it what is the point of storage

[lone mango]

Bro no way

They are still coping

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CzuusJmklU

[opaque sedge]

Dont hdds make noise? So this is kind of literal 💀

[lone mango]

This is like the 4th cope

[tranquil pebble]

If I could I would put eight 20 TB HDDs in my PC, but its too expensive

[fresh timber]

refurb

how u think i got my storage? 100% didnt get free hdds*

[nocturne flicker]

Hard Drives have literal disks inside that spin up and there is a little needle that reads and writes to the disks

[tranquil pebble]

magnetically ^

[nocturne flicker]

Imagine vinyl records but smaller, faster and louder

[fresh timber]

im bored should i buy 10gig networking

[nocturne flicker]

And a shiny white metal instead of black vinyl

[tranquil pebble]

and magnets go brr

[fresh timber]

do i touch

i want 10gig

[opaque sedge]

Omg

ITS MEAT

[fresh timber]

why is 10gig cheaper than 2.5gig

[tranquil pebble]

SFP+ wont do you any good without a router/switch that also has that

[fresh timber]

who said u had to connect to a router

or switch

also sfp+ works with standard rj45

[tranquil pebble]

with an adapter... what you would be doing is cursed

[fresh timber]
