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

So the UPS driver decided it was an awesome idea to leave my package in front of my building…4 feet from the sideway of a busy boulevard. So obviously it got swiped. So all my remaining pieces got stolen, along with about $500 worth of other shit. Fuck you UPS. Fuck you.

How do you get into Origins? Game is so boring to me, but people I share the same taste with love that fuckin’ game.
I don’t understand. I got 30 hours in it, and the entire 30 hours I was dying of boredem. I love the voice acting, tho.

This fuck? Man, I’d straight up say something about that. Shit is not acceptable.

thats why I claimed I didn’t get my 4ghz i7 even tho I got it

wasn’t even in the box :wink:

I complained. They should get back to me. Unfortunately the full amount wasnt declared (to save on already really expensive shipping costs) so I probably won’t see shit back or get refunded. Sad.

Yea I think its a given your probably better of trusting an armed felon you just met in a bar to deliver shit for you than fucking UPS.

Damn PozerWolf and that DA:O hate :confused: man you need to give that game another try, or at least mod it up a bit. Need to check out dat more options for the pearl ma nigga :trollface:

I dunno man, he spent 30 hours on it and didn’t like it. That’s really trying.

I enjoyed DA:O and am having a blast with Inquisition, though for vastly different reasons.

But seriously, right now, am on that Wolfenstein kick. Omg, so good.

Find out who the delivery guy is. Shouldn’t be hard since each neighborhood normally just gets one or two. Then beat the shit out of him and rob him.

I loved all the options and outcomes in origins. First game I really got into where so many decisions affect so many things. Plus blood mage was so fun. I found the combat challenging and the specializations great. Actually I think it was my first bioware game, so it was all very new to me. Edit: scratch that, I played kotor and kotor 2

Inquisition hits the right story notes for me, and the companions all intrigue me. I’m not big on open world’s (oblivion and skyrim exhausted me on them) but it feels so right here. Combines what’s right with mass effect and what was right in dragon age. Tons of meaningful choices, a great cast of characters, diverse regions, and a really great story (so far).

Plus the graphics… The environments look amazing. 30 FPS cut scenes ruin some of the immersion

you are supposed to file the complain with whoever you bought it from. not ups. YOU are not responsible for all that work.

Ive been around on both side of the fence and know exactly how all this shit works. with proper complain they’ll refund all your money or send replacement parts. they should know that they need to add signature confirmation for expensive packages. its also better to pay with american express. they usually favor the buyer in this type of situation.

Who did you complain to?

I ordered shit before from Amazon that turned up either missing or horribly damaged. I filed a complaint that I never received and Amazon refunded me and when I wanted to buy the same thing I got free next day delivery.

I tried before to complain to the delivery company but that shit was pointless from my experience.

I always say that if Hitler was still around he would do the shit UPS and Fedex Drivers do.

signature confirmation for anything expensive. and yes, fuck ups/fedex.

Reminder for those that are poking at Evolve, especially with a group of friends.

If you or a friend plays Val -medic-, ABUSE THE SHIT OUT OF THAT TRANQ GUN. Always try to keep the Tranq debuff up whenever possible. You’ll limit a monsters mobility so much to the point that it’ll do way more mitigation for your team than just healbotting and hell it’ll probably help with your team’s dps uptime against the monster since it’ll be a easier target since it’ll be highlighted and just overall a sitting duck.

Use it especially if you can get a opening shot vs a monster that you just spotted in the distance and aggressively keep the debuff up if it’s trying to escape. Though you’ll absolutely would want to keep your team mates healthy while searching, keep them relatively topped off, but if possible try to be in a good position to get a opening shot within a moments notice.

Love the class.

The store I bought it from can’t do anything. I had everything shipped to a friend in the US who then routed it all to me. So as far as the stores are concerned, they delivered. It’s just an unfortunate series of circumstances.

OH MY FUCKING GOD MY PACKAGE CAME IN! A neighbor grabbed it so it wouldnt be stolen!

Valaris confirmed living in white neighborhood. Thats a lot of beers you owe a dude.

I know! I have to find him again. He took off in a hurry. I need to find him and give him a bottle of wine.

Yep, confirmed living with white people. I miss living with them.

The building I live in is a lot of immigrants. They’re nice and all but when I had a pair of cheap shoes delivered here, no one brought the package in (that’s including the fucking Super) and it was stolen.

Fucking assholes.

BAaaaaahahaha they stole your shoes dawg, cant stop laughing.

Alright I got a question. I am not looking to start a shit storm here because I know this is an easy debate topic, but I just want an opinion.

AMD or Intel CPU?

State which you prefer and why. Dont bash the other. I dont come in here often so I dont want to shit up the thread. I started a new job recently and I am currently working on a hypothetical build. I currently dont have the funds to buy any shit right now, but I want to make up an outline of what I want for when I have enough cash saved. I have the know how on putting togther a computer so Im fine on that front, but I dont really have any preferences or extensive knowledge as to part manufacturers. I’ve built computers on paper in college and the specs allways check out.

I normally start with the CPU that meets what I need, find a motherboard based on the socket type, narrow down choices by how much RAM I want, and then if it can support any extra cards I want. My hypothetical build doesnt have a budget, but I dont really want it to be a fucking NASA super computer. I just want it to be a little above average gaming desktops, but not a top of the line enthusiast PC for the time being.

This is currently what I’m looking at on only a little research. Havent heard too much bad stuff about it aside from the thermal paste it comes with being shit.

Any problems with it you know of or better alternatives that arent too much more expensive. Not looking to run Crysis here. Just shit like Skyrim, Source games, CS:GO, and probably street fighter.

EDIT: Also I want to have that nice silky 60FPS and most games. It’s looking like this processor has issues retaining that on higher settings.
