[weak glacier]

is this good though @worthy jungle

[worthy jungle]

The other two builds I linked are better for gaming

[weak glacier]

oh lol

I havve the more expensive one

also I believe skytech and abs are one of the good prebuilts

skytech does have some bad one out there though

[worthy jungle]

Skytech isn't

They gave me the wrong psu, as well as a build full of issues

I ended up replacing everything but gpu, cpu, and ssd

[full wing]

Whats better a 3050 ti or a 3060

[formal tiger]

3060

[limber fulcrum]

3060 all the way

3050ti sucks, has only 4 gigs vram

[pine shuttle]

Depending on the game 4gb of Vram could be more than enough

Take games like Control as an example which you can play on high settings and easily get 65fps on average

Lot of competitive shooters over 100fps

[limber fulcrum]

It won't last into the future tho

[pine shuttle]

Same thing people said about 2gb of Vram but look there are still people using a 750 Ti, 950, 1030 and 1050 and has no problems

2gb of Vram was like what 2014 for the norm and we're in 2022

so 4GB Vram will last a long time especially for 1080p gaming

Sure people wont max out their games but they can still have a lot of fun

and with DLSS/FSR games can play a lot more stable

Also as an example if this which depending on what people would play can be better than a 2060 mobile

Sure it is only like 1% difference but still

I for one am still planning on getting this laptop because of all of what i would play on it would be more than enough

[limber fulcrum]

2 gigs simply isn't enough for 1080p anymore lol

Unless all you play is competitive games

I literally get vram warning for newer games

On my 850M, which is a 750Ti, pretty much

And I'm running 768P

[pine shuttle]

850M is more like a 740

Well between a 740 and 750

860m would be more like a 750 Ti

[limber fulcrum]

It actually is lol, if you have gddr5 that is

[pine shuttle]

Yep there was 2gb GDDR5 GT 740's

[limber fulcrum]

I'm talking about 850M and 750Ti tho

[pine shuttle]

Overall 4gb Vram will last for another 4-10 years before people will start to say that 6gb/8gb is too low

MX570 which is one of the newest mobile GPU's is only 2gb Vram and you can see even for a game like Valorant on low settings 1080p can get over 400fps

WZ 900p low at the low 50's

One common game people still plays in Minecraft which you can see here over 200fps

CPU used in this system as well is a i5-1240P

Very low powered CPU and GPU able to play these games without issues and with only 2gb Vram which again for 4gb of Vram will last a long time and sure people wont be able to max out their games but they would be able to play them at a stable frames and a nice enough setting

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1fWgi-SZp4 Video on the MX550 which is weaker of course

[polar needle]

It’s either 24gb or no buy

best ragdolls

[limber fulcrum]

val and mc aren't like

demanding games lol

mc just needs decent cpu and it's happy

im speaking like the bigger games

would rather have extra vram to have headroom

and not worry about a game refusing to work

[pine shuttle]

Not every person plays the bigger games though

Thing is out of billions of people on this planet you have a few million to like 200 million that would play those demanding titles while everyone else would still be playing games like CS GO as an example

[manic mural]

Tbh, lower spec people want to play a lot of games they can't, but still put a lot of time into the games they can play.

It's like "oh I want to play ftd", ftd runs at 15fps, and then you return to playing like csgo

hey friends, weird question, ive noticed that none of my co-op games will let me multiplayer. i am assuming this is a Steam problem or a computer problem, i can play multiplayer like Valorant with little issue, but when i play elden ring it crashes when i get a multiplayer open, and same to different games

[worthy jungle]

whats your pc specs?

[tropic fossil]

not exactly sure the specs anymore, but it should be well enough to do multiplayer, all i know off the top is i have a 3060 card

[visual moon]

Used to but I guess I'll start playing again

[rustic orchid]

Please help me configure this PC

[quaint pine]

Sure @rustic orchid what’s up?

[glass temple]

4gb might run games okay but we're seeing more and more increases to recommended vram. 4gb is not a good buy right now unless you only play esports titles or older stuff. Even in games that will run on 4gb your fps is often limited.

I guess another way to put it is that if you have a 4gb card rn and it works for what you use it for, that's cool, but for someone buying a brand new laptop presumably with the intention of using it for quite a while (no way to upgrade gpu separately) 4gb just isn't a good buy.

future proofing a desktop card isn't really worth it imo but laptops are different cause you gotta buy a whole new one

Hi everyone, can someone please recommend to me a good cheap gaming laptop with upgradeable specs such as storage, ram, and GPU that is capable of running the following specs: Operating System: Windows 8.1 64 Bit, Windows 8 64 Bit, Windows 7 64 Bit Service Pack 1
Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz (4 CPUs) / AMD Phenom 9850 Quad-Core Processor (4 CPUs) @ 2.5GHz
Memory: 4GB
Video Card: NVIDIA 9800 GT 1GB / AMD HD 4870 1GB (DX 10, 10.1, 11)
Sound Card: 100% DirectX 10 compatible
HDD Space: 65GB

I was looking into getting an omen 17 used but they're going for $1/2,00

[manic mural]

Just btw but you can't upgrade GPU in 99% of laptops

What's your budget?

[gleaming compass]

None right now have to save up. But probably going to attempt to save up to $1,000. Damn there aren't any laptops at all where the GPU isn't soldered into place?

[manic mural]

There's the like 2500$ old hp laptop with the GPU package thing that takes a special GPU module thing

But the only option for most laptop is only egpu

1000$ you can probably get a 3060 laptop new

But the spec requirements are really low

Example 1000$ laptop

Oh copied wrong link

https://www.amazon.com/GIGABYTE-G5-KD-i5-11400H-KD-52US123SO/dp/B09QPT6TZJ/

[gleaming compass]

Yeah, I'm looking for something where I could attempt to push the GPU to about 100+ fps. You think the Omen would be a good laptop to go in on? Because at least with that I could go up to a tb of storage.

[manic mural]

It's not a very good laptop but example

[manic mural]

Storage is upgradable in most laptops, not usually a factor

(when you have a m.2 slot, can probably put up to 2tb or even 4tb drive in there)

[gleaming compass]

This is what I'm looking at https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/ConfigureView?langId=-1&storeId=10151&catalogId=10051&catEntryId=3074457345620383327&urlLangId=&quantity=1

[manic mural]

It doesn't even have an option for a 3060 lol

I feel like 3050ti laptops should be 800$ and 1000$+ should warranty at least a 3060

[timid swan]

MXM might be what you're thinking of here? Unless it's the new modular laptops like framework

MXM has been basically dead for a while now though

[manic mural]

Yea

Hence the old

[timid swan]

You can get a MXM 2080 for $600 lol

yall when I try to login to my Minecraft account through my microsoft acc it says "we cannot sign you into xbox live".

I already migrated my account b4

anyone know a fix?

[timid swan]

Pretty common with the store launcher, but no fix I'm aware of. It's one of those things people hate about the transition between launchers.

[opal oasis]

damn how do I access my account then?

[timid swan]

Which variation of the error are you getting? The kind that's before you enter your login info or after?

And are any other games affected?

[opal oasis]

after I login

with my microsoft credentials

it tells my that it "cant connect to xbox live right now"

[timid swan]

Check that your Xbox app is up to date

I have an NTSC-NA Rev1 Dreamcast console, and I cannot for the life of me get burnt discs working on mine. It plays retail discs fine, and I think I have a working copy of Utopia BootDisc somewhere. so I need to go through and look at what dreamcast games I have that work in an emulator, then figure out how to burn them. Anyone have recs for how to burn discs and what emulator to use?

[timid swan]

Is the manufacture date before October 2000? If so you don't need to do anything special. Just burn at the slowest speed, usually 4x does it.
If it's after that date then afaik you can't without other tricks.
(Obligatory "you can only play games you legally own" statement here)

[onyx grove]

ion think theres really anyone left to enforce any sort of copyright over the dreamcast

sega dead company

[timid swan]

Correct but I will not and cannot support piracy, even if dead companies. Especially here.

[onyx grove]

nah i get that

[grand patio]

I don't remember off the top of my head

I know it's a Rev1, Rev2 removed burned CD "support"

[grand patio]

According to an old post I made on r/Dreamcast, it's from October 1999

[timid swan]

Then theoretically it should work without any modification. Slower speed burns tend to come out better.

[grand patio]

burn on the absolute lowest?

[timid swan]

4x is usually good

[grand patio]

I'll try that.

Hello, I am trying to find a wireless adapter that is windows 10 friendly, and doesn't require a disk to install. I have a netgear nighthawk that after a couple years is starting to bite the dust, and has made gaming almost impossible due to heavy lag spikes, and disconnections.

Does anyone know of a good one that is around 100 dollar range or less that works well for gaming?

[manic mural]

Router or wireless adapter? Both are called netgear nighthawk for whatever reason, and laptop or desktop?

[uneven crown]

Wireless adapter, and desktop.

It use to work great, but after a bad power surge a couple years ago fried my old gaming pc, the adapter has never worked the same.

[manic mural]

A simple ax200 option:
https://www.newegg.com/fenvi-fv-ax3000-pci-express/p/0XM-00JK-00075

and there's always the name brand t4e option
https://www.newegg.com/tp-link-aa528899-pci-express/p/N82E16833704464

[uneven crown]

Appreciated, do you know of one that is also external like the nighthawk?

[manic mural]

usb is just less reliable, I just wouldn't recommend it

[knotty dawn]

I'd just get a pcie one

way more reliable

[uneven crown]

Going to be honest, would be the first time installing one like that, is there videos on attaching one into your pc?

[manic mural]

There should be some, but its pretty simple, take the side panel off, unscrew pcie cover or remove it, slap the adapter in, and you're done

Sounds like someone got tripped by a cat and hates them now

thats the crux of the issue

truth is, nobody wants to run around as a small, unathletic pooch

[knotty dawn]

yeah no freakin dog is doing what stray cat did

running across rooftops and making ridiculous leaps

[onyx grove]

no dogs in real life are going to be able to do what cats do

[knotty dawn]

pawing out exactly the right type of energy drink

I love dogs but like stray was a pretty good game

not because it's about a cat but actually because they drew you into the game with the cat

and proceeded to tell an amazing story

[onyx grove]

ill probably play it soon, i added it to my wishlist when i first heard about it

but just havent been gaming enough as of late

[knotty dawn]

imo it's def worth at least a watch for playthrough

pay attention to the environment if you play cause there's a lotta cool stuff to look at

[timid swan]

Imagine the sequel coming out in 2026 when we're capable of true photorealism

[knotty dawn]

I am quite sad they don't allow customization of cat

like that'd be pretty cool

[idle garnet]

yea like adding underglow to the cat

and rgb

[knotty dawn]

honestly

that'd be sick

rgb hat the the cat

[timid swan]

Time to buy DLC that allows micro transactions

Oh wait they're not EA or Bethesda

[knotty dawn]

lol

[limber fulcrum]

lol

that person who made that article about stray seems to hate cats

isn't it better to just say "we need dog version of stray" or something

instead of saying the game should've had dogs

it's just stupid cause the game design is obviously meant for cats lol

[knotty dawn]

they spent a lot of time mocapping their cats bro

ain't gonna work on a dog model

[limber fulcrum]

ye

it would have to be a completely different game

to have a dog

[knotty dawn]

also, that

[limber fulcrum]

i would like dog version as a different game cause im curious

but that would take a while

stray is a very good game even if it's short

it's sad how some people just can't enjoy good games

just because there's things they don't like in it

[knotty dawn]

and that's the thing lol

the cat is only the way you interact with the world

it's not the main mechanic of the game where all you can do is annoy people and stuff

[limber fulcrum]

articles like these are like

[knotty dawn]

which they easily could have done

[limber fulcrum]

people saying they hate one thing but not wanting to admit it

so they go all nerdy

[knotty dawn]

it's like that tii tok trend

[limber fulcrum]

it's painfully obvious

[knotty dawn]

tell me you hate cats without...

you already know

[limber fulcrum]

ye

but i guess it gets more clicks

than actually saying something they feel

[knotty dawn]

and that's all they really care about

yeah

they probably love dogs and cats

[limber fulcrum]

probably just a clickbait

we can't know these days

I wonder when games r gonna look like irl movies

[full wing]

trying to play fn and it tells me "The Version of this driver has known issues", and I have been having genuine heavy stutter issues, should I roll back to the older driver its recommending then?

guessing so so that's just what I'm gonna do

I will be heaven if the world doesn't get blown up first.

I take SC before actually taking a photo ingame lol

so there's no watermark or ui

[pale basin]

still have forza horizon 5 installed, still havent opened to take pictures

[blazing hawk]

I kinda want a steering wheel just for FH5

Seems so much better than an Xbox controller

[pale basin]

steering wheels are good and better than an analog stick but feel as though itd be a bit of a waste of money to get it specifically just for forza horizon 5

[knotty dawn]

yesh

unless you have a lotta racing games

not worth it

[blazing hawk]

Is there anything that’s like worth buying that’s really cheap?

[knotty dawn]

if it's free

pretty much everything

[daring valve]

this truck sits as my best drift vehicle for many drift zones being done in this

[knotty dawn]

amazing

this is the meme vehicles

[daring valve]

the tankpool is my best drift vehicle and has scored well over 1mil on a drift zone

[plain wave]

i regret spending 60$ on fh5

[fresh island]

Idk if it's just me but the Hot Wheels map dlc in FH5 is kinda bugged lol
When I look in certain areas of the world my fps drops immensely and my gpu usage goes as far down as around 50 percent

Makes it kinda unsatisfying to play
But the entirety of the non DLC map is just fine

[dense slate]

I didn't know the Hot wheels dlc was part of game pass too

When I go to play Spiderman it says my AMD GPU drivers are not up to date. I checked the software and website and this was the most up to date recommended one. Should I use DDU and get the optional one or just leave it alone? (I am still able to play the game).

[timid swan]

That's a very recent release right? You'll definitely want the optional version for the latest fixes

[opal oasis]

yea it came out today

ran into a few bugs while playing

they were funny though

one would turn all the audio into chipmunk voice

and the other would just delete audio in general haha

[knotty dawn]

spiderman but he's deaf

[timid swan]

That needs to be a challenge for games like that now. (Fallout, Elder Scrolls, etc) Play with no audio or subtitles, and do a mod so whenever someone talks it's blank. Then randomize the responses with blank options.

[opal oasis]

Give a blind option and you’ll have a Daredevil simulator

[limber basalt]

Thanks it wasn’t that hard and this was my first ever build

[knotty dawn]

yeah you did good

[knotty dawn]

LOL THE EYES

[daring valve]

Max settings and I get this absolutely unplayable

[limber fulcrum]

tbf

the engine is old

and fh5 has way more assets than fh3 and 4

so the devs has no choice but to make em pretty low detail

[plain wave]

and still the game is 100gb

[dense slate]

Lol. Anyone notice how all the weeklies are based on EVs lately?

[daring valve]

yeah ive noticed that

[dense slate]

I can't stand it, I play manual w/o clutch and it's hard to hear when to shift

[dense slate]

Some of the electric cars have gears lol

[opal oasis]

I have a 1080 p monitor, should I turn on Radeon super resolution?

[knotty dawn]

sure, you could

[opal oasis]

would It do anything?

[knotty dawn]

just renders at higher resolution and downscales it

makes stuff look sharper but uses more resources

[opal oasis]

I saw somewhere that it doesnt do anything for 1080 monitors

sometimes it might hurt performance

[knotty dawn]

oh, it definitely could lol

[opal oasis]

LOL

[knotty dawn]

you can just turn it on and try

[opal oasis]

yeah will do

[knotty dawn]

I don't because it's kinda pointless on a laptop lol

[opal oasis]

was trying to figure out what settings to use for my pc on the AMD radeon software

[knotty dawn]

1080p on 17" screen is plenty sharp

[knotty dawn]

actually, do turn it on if you want more screen real-estate

[opal oasis]

what does that mean

[knotty dawn]

I just turned it on lol

what it basically does is allow your pc to render higher resolutions

so if you change windows scaling to something smaller than the default you effectively get more 'screen real estate'

[opal oasis]

Isnt it useless to have my pc render a higher resolution if my monitor is 1080 P?

[knotty dawn]

as in, you can fit in more windows in the same screen and still have stuff readable

[opal oasis]

ahh makes sense

[knotty dawn]

not if you reduce the windows scaling, no!

here, i'll take some sc

[opal oasis]

I just built this pc and for some reason im scared to experiment cuz im still on that "dont mess up your settings" mentality from my last PC LOL

i still havent even overclocked

[knotty dawn]

you don't really have to oc

basically, you can do this

on a 1080p screen

instead of only being able to put things in the 4 corners

[rich ice]

wanna break from the ads

[raven pebble]

my 1080 screen doesn't let me do this..

hm. I guess it probably could now that I'm comparing yours to mine

I just wouldn't be able to do discord in a window that small

well now you made me swap what windows I have on what monitor lol

[molten scroll]

I dont know where else to put this, but I wanted to know if someone could help with my internet problems. I am experiencing packet loss, on wifi and wired connection, its only noticeable when playing games, my ping is normally around 40 but will spike to 100 and my inputs wont go through. I've had my isp come and they replaced the coax and the modem, doesnt seem to have fixed the problem though.

https://packetlosstest.com/ this is the test I've been using to determine packet loss

Sometimes its fine and i get 0% other times its 10-15%

[dense slate]

I would try replacing the wifi router.

I had the same problem a couple of years ago, turned out my wifi router was the source of my packet loss.

When I was in the middle of an online game, I would have these random pauses for about a second or so. And they were happening pretty regularly.

[molten scroll]

I was thinking it was the router as well. I currently have spectrum, if i buy a new router is it as simple as just plugging my current cables into the new router and it works?

[molten scroll]

@dense slate

[dense slate]

Depends. You can keep the same modem from the ISP, and just get a new wifi router. But if it's the ISP modem, I'd see if they would be willing to replace it first.

I'm assuming it's a modem/router combo?

[molten scroll]

yes the modem and the router are both from spectrum

my modem got replaced a few days ago when they came by

[dense slate]

Ahh okay, I would get a cheap router off of Amazon, just to test it out and see if the packet loss goes away. And then invest in a decent router.

Also, check your cables and see if they're damaged at all.

[molten scroll]

so once i get a new router is at simple as just plugging it in and it works? or is there more to it?

[dense slate]

Yeah, it should be plug-and-play. You'll just have to set up your wifi details and admin password once you get it.

[halcyon venture]

yea its easy to set up. just connect from your modem and that's it. If your modem is a router then you have to enable bridge mode

[timid swan]

You don't have to enable bridge mode but it's useful

[calm reef]

Most isps its either plug and play or some of them you have to manually release it before you plug in new router, although idk what spectrums procedure is

[molten scroll]

alright thanks everyone, ill come back here if i need more help once i get the router

I turned on XMP when I first booted up and I have all my drivers updated. I really dont know what is doing this.

[full wing]

Also I still need to research all the modifications too

[manic mural]

Yea like squadron vehicle

[full wing]

Yeah, the Hungarian Zrinyi I

I still think I can get a Talisman if I really want to

[manic mural]

Not worth if you haven't grinded the German tree since it doesn't get efficient research for lower tiers

It's not like premium

[full wing]

Yeah, the only premiums I have is the MiG-15bis ISH and T-72AV (TURMS-T)

[manic mural]

Oh no turms player

/s

[full wing]

I don't play it when I don't need to

I only got it since it can help research the entire tech tree

[manic mural]

Turms players just tend to be like lvl 10 and the first high br tank they have, and suck at the game, it's a meme tbh

The worst part is how many of them there are, and since they only have turms, they only spawn once and screw the team over

[full wing]

Yeah, some times I hate myself for buying it, but it was the only ground vehicle that I could get that could research all the tiers in the tech tree

I've made almost 1M SL with it

[manic mural]

I think I've made like 1.5mil SL in 50 games with a cheap premium ship lol

The smelyi, it's like 1000 GE, 6$ worth iirc

Anyways just don't be that guy that runs in and died without doing anything in a turms, help your team, play normally

Gen 2 thermals are pretty nice

[full wing]

Yeah

Still kinda ticked Leopard 2AV doesn't get any thermals at all

[full wing]

I usually try, but I'll bring in some what lower BR tanks

Around 6.0-7.0

Since that's where I'm at

But I've gotten a solid amount of kills with some tanks

My friend has killed 3-4 top tier tanks with the SU-5-1

[manic mural]

Soviet mbts don't get thermals before 10.0 lol

[full wing]

Weird

[manic mural]

Tech tree ones

[full wing]

It's stupid how U.S.S.R. is behind on tech

[manic mural]

T80b at 10.0 gets only gen 1 thermals

[full wing]

I'm still curious what the light bulb on the Leopard 2AV does

[manic mural]

It's kind of common across the board for mbts

Like Abrams at 10.0 and m60a3 at 9.7 are the first American mbts to get thermals iirc

Leopards probably about the same

[full wing]

Well, I mean some Soviet jets doesn't even get missiles till 10.0

[manic mural]

Premiums get it earlier because premiums

[full wing]

True

[manic mural]

Nah, 9.3 get r3s

9.7 r60 on paper is great but in reality it's on a yak38m so not great

Although r3s plays even worse than aim9b lol

Mig 19pt and onwards get missiles because interceptors

Su7 and yak28b don't because they're not supposed to be fighters or interceptors, they're bombers and cas

[full wing]

Well yeah, but they're not the best

I really want to get the Mi-24P

But I'm only at the Mi-4AV

It's AGM's only have 4 kilometers of range

[manic mural]

The really suck but technically they are available for soviets

[full wing]

I'm pretty sure there's a American missile at 9.7 that can pull 20G's

[manic mural]

Soviet r60 can pull 30g iirc

At 9.7 on yak38m, 9.3 on premium yak38

R3s just doesn't like to track

Like aim9b spec wise is the same missile as r3s but performs more consistently

[idle garnet]

r60M op

best close range missile in game

R24T long range missile best

[manic mural]

aim54 is weird

but anyways I want r60m

I want any sort of all aspect missile

[idle garnet]

yeah lol

russian stronk

[idle garnet]

the aim 54 is kinda a subpar missile compared to a lot of other missiles. its extremely easy to dodge as well

only effective on targets who arnt paying attention or dont have RWR

[manic mural]

tws sad though

won't ping you

[manic mural]

I was in a top tier match a min ago and there was a really weird missile that came at me, I saw it when it was 6km out, it kinda has the trail aim54 is notorious for, so I defended it, but then it just disappeared, no idea why, and rwr never told me I was locked, so dunno

there were f14s in the distance, nothing within 10km

[idle garnet]

they could have fired it way earlier lol

they have 300 second guidance time

100 second*

1 miss still 100pp lol

[plain wave]

3 miss

[manic mural]

+19pp and -4 rank? wut

[plain wave]

no raw pp and thats just rank decay

[manic mural]

huh

[halcyon venture]

That's pretty cool

[manic mural]

I don't have anything cool, just disappointing combo breaks like

(cut in a way to hopefully avoid the cursing)

[manic mural]

if this map didn't have stacked circles I'd be able to fc it

[manic mural]

Also, there has to be a better way to do these triplets, I'm currently using just 1 finger for these and it gets really tiring

[formal tiger]

time to learn alternating

or just practice more and get better stamina

[manic mural]

I do alternating for streams and normal stacked 3 circles but these are just weird, they're separated but at the same time not quite spaced lol

[plain wave]

stacked notes are an L if ur an alternator

[limber fulcrum]

tfw i alternate all the time

[manic mural]

Stacked sliders though, those are really annoying

I am thinking of getting a few more games on Steam or Xbox (I have Ultimate), any suggestions?

I am thinking of trying games that are highly creativity based or ones like Doom Eternal where it's just pure send em all to hell kinda gameplay.

No farming simulators.

[manic mural]

Strategy game wise, any of the paradox games, hoi4/eu4/vic2/Stellaris

[manic mural]

For creative fun games, Factorio, most vehicle building simulator games can be interesting
(Everything from like Terratech and From the depths to Sprocket and Ultimate Admiral dreadnoughts)

kerbal space program

[calm reef]

minecraft

if its still 40$ not worth imo

[zenith geyser]

Hi Everyone. I have a Sinden Lightgun and I was wondering how I could be able to play Duck Hunt or Time Crisis. I cant seem to find a download for duck hunt that is not a fake version. Anyone that wants to help me? I am a newbie in this field. Also when I use the software my cursor keeps glitching a lot on the screen any knows on how to get a more stable cursor while using the gun?

[digital fractal]

Very creative indeed. Already got that though.

Hmmm, what about like shooter games? Specifically for like storyline purposes.

[knotty dawn]

Not doom eternal then lmao

Basically just goes ||You go kill demon then kill god then kill god god and go to sleep||

[manic mural]

Metro series is fun

Although wait for sales for those

Should be like 5$ per game

Titanfall 2 campaign is fun but short, might be worth if it's cheap

You prob know about just cause already

@digital fractal there's also always the humble bundle monthly choice thing, 10$ each time and get a good mix of usually good games

[digital fractal]

Never heard of this.

Where do I find that

[manic mural]

I guess price went up, it used to be 10$

Still, 12$ is not bad at all for what you get

[slim sleet]

Ordered my Steam Deck

[halcyon venture]

Nice

[timid swan]

To add to this, for that $12 you also get access to a huge catalog of indie games

Most are DRM free also

[slim sleet]

Also got a PS5 today. Look at the size difference compared to my PC

[visual moon]

They're pretty tall, I never thought they were 40cm height

[ivory sage]

Yeah

Ps5 too big imo.

I like it though.

[manic mural]

I should not have passed this

[ivory sage]

Just seeing that hurts my hands

[manic mural]

the section near the end though

it didn't really hurt my hands since there was more just aiming and not streams

at like 1:15

[formal tiger]

nice man i'm seeing a lot of improvement in you

watching your progress over the past few months

[manic mural]

lol

[formal tiger]

you've definitely got better

good job man

[manic mural]

thanks

but uh streams kills

[formal tiger]

you thinking of trying out tablet?

[manic mural]

neva

[formal tiger]

streams still kill me too dw

same i wasn't the biggest fan of tablet

[manic mural]

im gonna try finger killer stream map again

[formal tiger]

i had one and tried using it for months to get used to it, but it just didn't work for me

[manic mural]

fair

[formal tiger]

just download a ton of stream maps and play those

tech maps are also good for learning

[limber fulcrum]

i just play whatever i feel like

[formal tiger]

the best way to play osu

[limber fulcrum]

my maps are usually super old lmao

like 2017

[formal tiger]

farming kills the fun for me in the game ngl

[limber fulcrum]

or newer

yeah, i just slowly get better through playing maps i like

[formal tiger]

you like the older maps?

[limber fulcrum]

not really, im just lazy

[formal tiger]

i don't like the old ones with super tiny circles and low bpm

[limber fulcrum]

and i like listening to the songs

[formal tiger]

those ones are a pain

[limber fulcrum]

i never like super old maps

like 2010 or something

oldest i have is 2016

[formal tiger]

have you seen the guy that plays with the EZ mod?

i think he specializes in EZDT

i forget

[limber fulcrum]

nah

[formal tiger]

his memory is insane

[limber fulcrum]

i used to dt and nf lower stars

but now i can't do any mods lmao

cause im playing at 3-4 stars

depending on the map

i can kinda pass 4.5

[formal tiger]

https://youtu.be/5bw6KusxhDE this is the guy

his reading skills are a little bit otherworldly

[manic mural]

did this again, slightly better acc, started out a lot better but I lost the rhythm

[formal tiger]

doing dt on 3.5-4* songs is pretty fun sometimes

[manic mural]

nah there's a EZHDFL guy iirc that's even more crazy

[formal tiger]

i think that's him

i forget

[limber fulcrum]

i just can't keep up with dt

[formal tiger]

haven't been paying attention to that scene in a while

[limber fulcrum]

too fast

[manic mural]

lemme go look

oh yea

there's this guy that's not ez

but @formal tiger this is a crazy play

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rILkrx5erxI

hddt is crazy

[limber fulcrum]

jesus

[formal tiger]

holy

[manic mural]

according to some very high ranking people that might be the best play of the year

[formal tiger]

i think i remember hearing his username a year ago

damn

what a play

[limber fulcrum]

i wish to get fc in 4 star maps ngl
