The PC gaming Thread. Steam/GOG/Origin/Etc. Game/Software/Hardware talk

well its a vapor x oc one w the the three fans, so its pretty good for the price, I’m satisfied.

I went to canyourunit.com and it green lights everything but my CPU now. before it was saying both my GPU and CPU wasnt up to par…and I can tell the difference now that I have my new card…its definetely stonger, the hiccups and drops arent as severe but gameplay just wont smooth out unless I turn the player models down to medium…I’ve tinkered with every setting and nothing effects the slow down execpt that…but medium player models are butt ugly compared to the high ones, so i’d like more juice to be able to run the game smoothly on high. cause the slow down I deal with makes it unplayable. i’m not even trying for a high resolution, I’m just playing on 1024… theres not really alot of settings to mess with tho…Anti Aliasing quality (Ive turned it all the way down to 2x, but with high players, my game still experiences slow down), the quality of texture detail (which even on low doesnt effect much) and players… and the fact tomb raider is giving me the same fps (24-ish avg on high) it was giving me when I had my last card (r7 250) is disappointing…

Can’t help you there, sadly.

I remember taking these screen shots back when I did a lot of Early Access and Free Games searching.
Didn’t bother reading titles or taking names since 95% of them all had hilarious things to say. Looking at the Early Access games now, people writing up college essays as to why you shouldn’t buy it, etc etc.

State of Decay is really cool if you’re into resource managing and keeping people alive. If a person dies, they’re dead, leaving only the things they had on them. The things you do don’t have a super huge impact, but they can.
Example (Mild Spoilers Ahead)

Spoiler

You start the game as this dude named Marcus, IIRC. He and his buddy Ed are beating the shit out of zombies. Events happen, and Ed gets bitten. Ed and Marcus find a new group of survivors, and a mission to save a doctor comes up. I kept putting the mission off as I felt the group was in dire straits and I wanted to collect some things to keep us going. In turn, not saving the doctor ended up meaning that Ed couldn’t get better. I logged into the game and it told me Ed was dead. I was shocked, and at the same time, I understood. The game has things like that. You don’t understand the consequences until you go through them

i gave you a few weeks grace period before i laid plans to wet your block up.

too late to change it now. might as well enjoy it before i crack the pavement.

This was an interesting video on Five Nights at Freddy

Now, I know it’s Game Theory and people piss on the guy for… making vids so whatever.
Granted, this theory he made may come across as a stretch, but an interesting video none the less. Don’t mind the first 2 minutes, he actually mocking players who title this game the “scariest game of all time”, so yeah, he’s being ironic. But none the less, wtf @ the chuck e cheese incident, shit sounded crazy.

As for the game itself, I think it’s awful, but maybe the “lore” is good? I dunno.
Jump scares do little nothing to me, and since the game relies heavily on jump scares, its hard to get immersed with the game. But I will say, the trailer to FN@F part 2 looks like a lot of fun since you’ll be managing a lot of ways to not die. The way I look at it is a more complicated version of Defend the Tower.

I kinda suspected this would happen. Poor GamersGate. Getting all this undue vitriol just because their name too closely resembles that retarded-ass movement.

…all this extra attention better not result in the site get attacked :mad:

That video seemed so legit. People shit on GT, but I always liked the videos they put out, especially the one about Legend of Zelda ones.

But this specific video kinda creeped me out, like creepy pasta with evidence.

So microcenter.com has the i5 3570k for 189.99 however I don’t have any of them near me. Do you guys know if best buy or any online retailers will price match. I am kind of bummed I just missed tiger directs sell on the 770 for 190.

Check out staples online store. & talk to them though the online live chat. I almost got a i5k through them online i just didn’t have enough on my card for them to deduct the discount from it.

“Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”, so you should feel flattered. Otherwise,

Back on topic, The Forest is $10 so I might pick that up later today.

So is Quake III pretty much fucked with the Steam release, or are there a lot of classic servers? @ThePurpleBunny‌

I’m going to pick up Counter-Strike: GO soon. Does anyone still play it? @Tweleve @ShaftAgent

Yeah, something’s up. Could be a CPU bottleneck, could be one or two settings killing your performance. IIRC Tomb Raider is pretty easy to run on full @ 60 FPS, especially considering it’s on PS3/360.

That entire accident was crazy. I had to look up on it to read more about it cause I didn’t know what to believe when he first spoke about that. When he started saying stuff about how he wasn’t going to joke about it, that’s when it dawned me on “WTF this is real?!”

Pozer, I miss your streams mayn. BibleThump

Thanks tragedy, I will try them if they get more in stock.
I wish people would stop buying up all the cheaper 770’s and wait until black friday. They might end up forcing me to get one before they are all gone.
Also the asus ve247h is 119.99 at newegg if anyone is interested in that monitor

People still play the hell out of CS:GO, AFAIK. It’s a great game, and pretty much just an updated CS:S (as I’m sure you know).

i can’t play online games with this garbage internet. once i am able to upgrade, i will start back with the CS

I’ve been investing a lot of time on other things at the moment.
So, even though I post in here about X game, I haven’t had time to play any games as of yet. But I’m making time for GG Xrd once that lands.

Metal Gear Rising Revengence is 50% off too-day. 15 bucks.

Custom Arcade (VR compatible) is streaming right NOW

its being released next week

Yea, im going to roll with a x4 860 when i get paid…from asking around and reading online, i dont think i can go wrong w that cpu…seems like a prettty strong chip.
