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

of course you don’t need a fancy mouse to play Quake 3 and Counterstrike and other games made in the 90s that require one button.

I would much rather have some of those macros to my right hand than my left. Plus, I really like having volume control from the mouse. And the problem with mouse sensitivity is in games like Saints Row 4 where the cursor speed in menu has to be atrociously slow to make sure you don’t dart around like a hyperactive kid in the willy wonka factory when you’re actually playing. In those cases, adjusting it on the fly is a MUCH better option.

Big thanks to Val for linking that Best Buy discount to the Proteus Core.

It’s amazingly comfy, and it has the right amount of side macros unlike those MMO-mice that have a miniature number pad on the side where your thumb rests. My only issue with the G502 so far is the scroll-wheel; when it’s unlocked (for faster scrolling) the mouse becomes ultra sensitive and flies all over the place, but when it’s locked (for precise scrolling) it seems to add extra weight. It’s just a minor complaint, but overall, I feel like this was a $60 well spent.

The scroll wheel is a complaint I’ve seen before. Luckily for me, more weight is always a good thing in my opinion so I actually like it.

I’m indifferent, either way. I am just off-put by the weight transitioning, which might be a slight OCD on my part.

i endorse sleeping dogs being amazing because it is amazing. i enjoyed the combat (didnt have vsync on), thought it had style and swag, nothing spectacular when looked at as a singular piece of the game but as a whole, pretty dope.

im on the last chapter of the evil within, this game is dope, not sure why it got hammered on reviews, maybe people were anticipating something transcendent from mikami.

my mouse of choice is mx518

That’s my mouse. Feels a little cheap in the hands but it’s been good to me for about a year now. The software isn’t as good as razers, but by 1 year into my razer mouse or been through 2 rmas.

The reason I post it, it’s 60% off and gets a further price cut in a flash sale on amazon in half an hour.

Sleeping Dogs was really solid. I loved the way driving felt in that game.

I’m on Chapter 11 right now in TEW, I’m really liking the game as well. I think it got slammed because of the “technical issues.”

Wat.

Hotkeys and keybinds > extra buttons on a mouse to me.

It’s about $6 on the Humble Store right now and 400 Days is around $1.

Thumb buttons on mice are the best just for surfing the internet. Back button ftw

Walking Dead Season 1 was great!
Season 2 sucked dick.

[details=Spoiler]not mentioning what happened to that baby is what fucked the whole continuity of it up imo. players be like “shiiiiit, well I guess that baby died :(” it fucked up the fight for the fragile that kept people hooked throughout the game. if that baby survived it would make the older characters death almost purposeful

but I guess judith still being alive has filled that slot[/details]

[details=Spoiler]I didn’t like how all of Season 2, they kept treating eye patch (let’s call him that, cause people be reading spoilers anyways and I don’t want it spoiled regardless) like he was “different”. Episode 2, it was odd how everyone kept coming up to Clementine saying “doesn’t eye patch look seem different to you?” and the entire way, I was like “uhhhh… wut?” so I was expecting something to happen.

Then, here comes the final fight and they’re all like “EYE PATCH, WHY ARE YOU SO DIFFERENT?!” and I was still asking myself “what the hell is everyone talking about?!” and that girl hid the baby so you can see how eye patch “truly was”. But that’s the problem, you already knew how he was, not through the player, but through Clementine’s eyes. She knew how he acted, and she’s seen him explode and change after duck jr died. WTF TellTale!

Season 2 had a different writer, but apparently the Season 1 writer said 2 was a cluster fucked and tried to organize it. However, that dude was already working on a different game.[/details]

So apparently a japanese Paypal email went out leaking that the Winter Sale starts December 18th

From the guys who created the original Xcom, went out and made a game called Chaos Reborn

Looks interesting, problem is that it’s in Early Access. However, judging from videos, it looks like development is coming out quiet nicely. Who knows, perhaps it’ll be out by summer 2015, and I’ll be sure to purchase it then. But for the moment, very little trust on the project. Still, I’ll be watching any updates that may occur on this game ^^^v

i dont remember fallout 3 and new vegas getting that same level of slamming from “technical issues”.

Apparently a dev gave out “too much info” in regards to this info.
If this is true, all I have to say is…

Oh my god that thread. X1 shilling is too strong
