Lucky bastards, I keep forgetting about GOG.com for some reason tho. I don’t mind the wait though so it’s not much of a problem I hope I can run the game with decent video settings I need to switch out my graphics card when I get some money saved up.
Edit: Game just opened up on steam thank god for preloading.
RoTT uses the Unreal engine so you should be fine. Minimum/Recommended specs are pretty damn low, too.
If anyone wants to coop Sacred 2/play Rise of the Triad add me on Steam. Account is the same as my SRK tag.
Can anyone recommend a good gamepad for the PC? I want to pre-purchase Skullgirls to get into the beta and I refuse to play the game with my 360 pad. Anything that resembles the Dual Shock is what I’m looking for.
Sigh…
I come humbled.
I’ve tried my best with Google-Fu and just can’t seem to find much of anything, so I was hoping you guys could point me in the right direction.
I purchased a All-in-one for my wife with touchscreen and for shits and giggles I’ve been trying ot hunt down some touchscreen games, especially “What’s the difference” style games. All I’ve come up with are a few ‘internet only’ games like that and a few steam titles like PvZ that we’ve BOTH OD’d on.
Does anyon have any touchscreen game recommendations?
These were the titles I got for my Wife to play, most of them seem like they’d be touch screen friendly…

Logitech’s PC gamepads resemble the Dual Shock but why not just fanagle a DS3 to work with your computer. It only uses bluetooth so I’m sure there is a way to make it happen. Otherwise buy a nice stick instead since this is for a fighting game.
I use a PS3 pad for a majority of my games. USB+JoyToKey works for me :tup:
I prefer to play fighters on pad. It’s how I grew up playing them. I haven’t had the best of luck using my DS3 on PC. The drivers I used would make my computer blue screen when I plugged my 360 controller into it. I’m trying to avoid that again.
You can always go with this, it’s the madcatz pad that lets you customize where the joysticks/pads are, what type of DPad you use, etc

the majority of us stick users had to deal with the US parts -> Japanese parts switch when SF4 came out and the TE got popular, it’s not that hard to learn something new.
Odd though when I play old games (like CvS2) my muscle memory still prefers the US parts
I actually mainly play pc games. I have 60 plus hours logged on sfIV AE on steam.
Damn they already got RoTT hacked. Just played a dude that had god mode on the entire game won the game in like 2 minutes. Shit is stupid. Fun game though but the framerate is all over the place for me probably need to lower settings or get a new graphics card.
I don’t think it’s your PC’s fault. I’ve seen many people in the Steam forums and even game reviewers complaining about how this game is poorly optimized.
Since we’re on topic. Any OG PC gamers on here? Anyone like King’s Quest I through King’s Quest III? i believe they correlate to the old Zelda games. Anyone remember Think Quick! and Karateka? There’s a whole list of old school games to post about but then I’d be typing all night.
The only King’s Quest I’ve played is 6; I was big on Quest for Glory.
I haven’t played much Zelda either, but I don’t think the comparison’s right. King’s Quest is mainly about puzzles, with little if any combat.
I use to play Commander Keen back in 93 at a cousin’s house.
Like someone else said, this game is poorly optimized. Worse performing UE3 game I’ve ever played(all UE3 games I play run at 60+ FPS on full settings, always.)

^ With some manual changes in the settings+turning off Depth of Field, Ambient Occlusion and PhysX made my framerate skyrocket. Kept everything else on Ludicrous. People with top of the line PC’s are reporting garbage FPS too, so until this game gets patched(developers confirm an optimization patch is on its way) making these few changes is the best you can do. Going from Ludicrous to Low settings doesn’t affect anything strangely for anyone it seems, so yeah.
I did this and I went from ass framerates and crazy stuttering when a lot of shit was going on to 60+ FPS 99% of the time:
**MOUSE SMOOTHING
ROTTInput.ini
ctrl+f and look for bEnableMouseSmoothing=true , change true to false. Save & Exit
FPS ISSUES
ROTTEngine.ini
ctrl+f and look for [MemoryPools] by default they are set to 512 each, set each to 1024. Save & Exit **
I did that while only turning off DOF, Ambient Occlusion and PhysX. Everything else is on Ludicrous. No idea if turning off those 3 features does anything, but the .ini changes does work.
Played a crap ton of ROTT at Quakecon…getting killed by a dog best death ever! Usually ended in the top 5 sadly couldn’t score me a free copy of the game from GOG.com who were promoting the thing i’ll probably put of pics of the small setup they had.
So, somebody got a tour of Valve (yeah yeah, not that uncommon)

However, check this picture out
It’s a changelog for code checkin… well, look at this line
[Source2] Changed L4D3’s test_networking unit test to use the devtest level again
So, they’re confirmed to both be working on Source2 engine, as well as Left 4 Dead 3. There are more checkins related to left 4 dead 3 as well… so… it’s safe to assume that will be the next valve release.
Gentlemen, start your engines
