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

Why does Source have to have such shitty, shitty hitboxes and hit detection? :frowning:

Did they fix that shit in CS: GO? Or is it still Marvel 3 Vergil normal-esque hitboxes where headshots are more common than anything else, to a point where you can get headshots without even trying to aim?

About the summer sale.

Counter-Strike Source.

I thought first at all that you meant with Source the video link, then I realized my mistake,lol.

Anyway, I will buy again a lot of games during the summer sale, doubt that I will play one of them.

July 11th is my Birthday, guess Iā€™ll be treating myself this yearā€¦ problem is, I already have too many games to play. Ah well.

I really wanna get Shadows over Mysteria, and FTL, and maybe see what else is out there that looks cool. Not really into too many big AAA titles these days

Why is no one talking about Rogue Legacy in here? Game is super legit.

There was a Rogue Legacy thread floating aroundā€¦ but yes, my favorite game lately. Very Binding of Isaac vibe to it, which I loved and got Golden God in (but I stopped playing before the dlc expansion)

Hmmm looks like Summer sale will start during evo .

This is a cool site I found on neogaf, it calculates how long it would take to beat your steam games: http://steamplaytime.appspot.com/

Iā€™m probably going to wait till thursday to buy anything but I saw Rouge Legacy in the store and it looked fun. Procedurally generated metroidvania with different heroes? Count me in :tup:. @PimpWilly you havenā€™t played FTL?

Iā€™m hoping XCOM sees a sale the most tbh. First summer sale, Iā€™m pretty excited.

CS:GOā€™s recoil is so derped, itā€™s like Left 4 Dead 2 style recoil and the hitboxes are worse than Source they try to make it realistic when itā€™s clearly not.
And yeah itā€™s basically Vergil-esque and the Terrorists have way better weapons than the Counter Terrorists.

Could somebody recommend me a decent graphics card, around Ā£100-Ā£150 range, please?

Oh and my steam id is Mortum_Kujo ā€¦I think

Ā£100-Ā£150=200-300 ish dollars American/Canadian, yeah?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130937 4GB GDDR5 GTX 760 for right under $300 is probably the most bang for your buck right now. Thing will last you the entire next-generation of gaming, too.

^ Cheap 2GB card that you could snag now if youā€™re on a budget, then later on buy another and SLI them. Iā€™d spend the extra dough and go for the 760 personally, though.

Nope, havent played FTL yet

I was excited for XCOM but when I played the demo, I decided against buying it right away. If its like $10 or so Iā€™ll pick it up

Yeah thatā€™s about rightā€¦ish lol

The GTX 760 is just under Ā£200 so Iā€™ll probably end up with that somewhere down the line but the 650 will do fine considering my budget at the moment (need new PSU and RAM).

Thanks mang!

FTL is great. Super micromanagement. I think I saw XCOM for sale somewhere already for like 12 bucks, Iā€™m gonna go look for it later.

XCOM is great, was even part of the Bioshock Infinite Preorder. I can really recommend it.

No prob. Iā€™d try to spend the extra dough on the 760 if you can, but that 2GB card is fine too. You can SLI it down the road and maybe get slightly more performance out of those two cards VS just 1 760, but thereā€™s the problem of a lot of games not properly utilizing SLI correctly. You rarely get the full performance out of your 2nd card, so I personally think itā€™s always better to go with one beefy GPU over two. Less problems you have to deal with as well from what Iā€™ve seen.

Edit: Snagging that 760+having a decent amount of RAM and a good processor will future-proof yourself for next-gen easily. I wish I held off a bit on building my PC, I might need to upgrade soon(I run everything on the market with a 1GB GDDR5 GPU. The only game that rapes my PC is Crysis 3, and I figure once next-gen games start coming out my PC will probably have trouble keeping up. Iā€™ll wait until then, though. Prices are constantly dropping in the PC market.)

Crazy people have two or three SLIā€™d $1000 Titans. Beyond overkill on everything on the market right now, and it makes me feel poor because my entire rig cost about $1000.


For those, who love Indie games and these bundles to check out, which are currently on sale.

Yeah definitely gonna make sure to future proof myself lol. Iā€™ll end up getting the 760 itā€™s just that the card I have now is complete ass and I need pretty much new everything which is why imma settle on the 650 for now.

Why the hell would anyone need 2-3 titans? Though if I could afford it Iā€™d be doing the same lol

LORDS OF SHADOW SUCKS

That is all.
