Same feelings as you when I finally completed the final ending of the expansion (after doing all the side gigs etc). I kept a save file from just before as I haven't done the car racing or boxing quest lines, not sure there is much story there but might give them a go. Also only got about half...

Friendly fire is definitely a part of the game, especially on 64 player team objective servers, but the actual damage you do per hit is very low so don't worry about it (but it is frustrating when they stop you from hitting an enemy). Latency/ping is definitely important in Chiv, I am lucky to...

Bought this over the Christmas sale on Steam along with a few friends and wow, we are absolutely loving it. I have 60 hours into it in 6.5 weeks. We all played Chiv 1 back in the day but never played Mordhau. The combat system and more importantly the objective based map design and pacing make...

Haven't played the first game but am tempted now. I am into story/visual quality on single player games, sounds like it's enjoyable for something different?

Finished the main quest line in Phantom Liberty earlier this week, absolutely fantastic and on par quality/story wise with The Witcher 3 expansions. I think I put about 20-25h into it, including a bunch of side quests/gigs in Dogtown. Still doing gigs/follow-on Phantom Liberty stuff now and...

Used 4080's in Canada must drop down to $1100-1200 max in my view. Used cards should cost less than a new card pre-tax by at least $100-200. Sellers of course are often delusional and will sit on listings for months until accepting the price landscape has changed. Just keep hitting new listings...

How did your actual in-game boost clock and temperatures compare from stock to the 925mV and +1000MHz memory?

Biggest question to me is what will the RTX 5080 launch price be. If we assume a late Q4-24 or early Q1-25 launch (based on cadence of 30x0/30x0 Super and 40x0 launches) we aren't that far out. 4080S for $1000USD or 5080 for 1200USD if it offers ~30-40% performance boost and possible new...

Problem with looking at recent used values of 3090 (regardless of market) is the 40x0 Super series is too new to have impacted those used values. 4080 Super at $1000USD instead of $1200USD is going to force used values lower on stuff like 3080Ti and 3090 since the relative value of those used...

Sucks, loved both the newer DX games.

For me at least, ray tracing is a very meaningful change in gaming enjoyment. Cyberpunk, Metro Exodus etc. I do fall into that category re: $1000USD budget for video card, but I would only consider NVDA at this point for that reason. Especially with the new QD-OLED HDR displays. Visual fidelity...

I just played the main quest line (from memory anyway). In open world games I rarely bother doing anything outside of main and significant side quest lines (for games like Mass Effect, Cyberpunk etc). Open world content just feels like fetch quest filler stuff. I don't have muhc time to game...

4080S for $1k USD caught my eye, currently on a 10gb 3080 (from release) on a 9700K at 5GHz. At the same time I feel like best course of action is to wait until 5080 and do a full new build in spring 2025 with a Ryzen X3D or something. The new QD-OLED panels just coming out also look like game...

2042 is actually in a pretty good state these days. Player count is way up (based on Steam alone) since season 6. I have zero problems findings games in the PNW of any type (Conquest 64/128, Rush or TDM). The Season 6 map (Redacted) is a bit of a meat grinder, kind of reminds me of Metro, but is...

Been slowly enjoying my way through the expansion and wow it's really good. Ended up re-rolling my level 35 character to a stealth sniper/tech weapon build based on a Fextralife guide and wow, using some of the weapons you get in the expansion is so fun, downing most enemies with one shot crit...

Debating picking up either this or Star Wars Jedi Survivor (sale prices) for my next single player game as I am close to finishing the Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty. Enjoyed the first Star Wars game a lot but have heard of performance issues on Jedi Survivor. Never played a God of War game...

If you are into single player experiences and want to stretch your rig's leg with awesome visuals on the OLED, check out: Cyberpunk 2077, Witcher 3 (with ray tracing), Horizon Zero Dawn, Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order (and Survivor once they get it all patched), Red Dead Redemption 2 etc. Also a...

Intrigued by this game, haven't played any in the R&C series but like the graphical style and gameplay looks fun. Gonna wait for a sale though, $79.99CAD is a lot.

The proximity VOIP is one of the best parts of this game. So many hilarious moments, both from enemies and own team doing funny stuff. Have only seen a handful of annoying trolling (bass boosted/static) type incidents and it's a quick hot key to mute them anyway.

Argh I forgot there's no DLSS (at least native) in this game. Had been hoping to use DLSS2 Quality.

Have played maybe 6 hours over the past few nights with a crew of friends who have all loved past Battlefield games (only two of us made it to 2042, the rest dropped off after BF3/4) and we are having a blast. It's definitely a pretty deep and tactical game although gets chaotic at times. Also...

Just came to the thread to check in if the game has been "fixed" and sounds like still some significant issues. I have a 9700K 5GHz + 3080 10gb hoping to play on 1440p but sounds like I can expect significant stuttering (as compared to 4090 rigs)? I love Respawn, and blame EA, just hope they...

Loved the first game but I waited 6ish months to play it and it was fine (I'm sure there was shader comp stutter but somehow I don't remember seeing it, I am lucky). Trying to read through the last two pages, sounds like despite day 1 patch (plus May 1? Two patches?) there are still issues? I...

Lineage 2 is the only MMO I ever played, in 2003-04ish (North American server). Man the amount of scamming and comedy that happened in that game was insane. The open PVP aspect made it really interesting from a social perspective, could lose stuff that took months of grinding if you were not...

I have fun in the game playing with a buddy on Discord from time to time. Tanks/APCs can do OK if you have at least one person with a repair tool (rare unless you play with friends on Discord) and you engage appropriately, i.e. not pushing ahead of team/front line. I find good pilots are hard to...

Dude.... this is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, wish you had gotten a video. The rage must have been insane, especially the kamikaze plane hahaha.

Metro Exodus is another, some of the areas where you are exploring in the dark and there are ambient noises/monsters groaning but it's otherwise quiet are incredible. Combined with the best ray tracing I've seen in any game, wow, some memorable moments. For multiplayer, I second Battlefield V...

Video summarizes this mess pretty well.

Great game, played it on Game Pass a few years ago, I think on my current rig but with a 1080 Ti, had no stutter issues.

Are there rumours of Zen 4 X3D CPU timing yet? Been debating building a new rig this year, the 9700K 5GHz is coming up on 5 years old this fall. Probably hold onto the 3080 for now though.

Glad they are delaying it, first one was very polished and hope the same for this. Had a lot of fun with it and don't really remember stutters being much of a problem but maybe I got lucky.

Gonna have to play around with the Rorsch some more, I forgot that it damages vehicles and didn't realize you could snipe pilots in 2042. Been having fun playing with a buddy, both deploy as Lis and just team up on armor with TV missiles/C5, adding Rorsch to that to harass pilots will be...

Thanks, just read about the satchels, makes sense as the starting inventory is pretty limited and find myself not having enough space. Also an incentive to hunt animals, I can see how it materials/crafting/camp stuff is all tied together now. Thanks for the tips. I think I've been holding aim...

Huge BC2 fan but haven't played other than the odd single game once every year or two. Still enjoy BF4, BF1, BFV and BF2042 to a minor extent. Mostly play CSGO and Apex Legends for online FPS these days.

I thought there was a sub-menu to search for game modes on certain maps (Conquest at least) but maybe not? Put in a bunch more time over holidays, it's reasonably fun, graphics and performance are good in current state. Heavily disagree with flogger about Apex/OW being kids games. Skill...

Picked this up on the winter sale for $26CAD and have been really enjoying it. 15% of the way through so far, I've just been playing through the quests/story line kind of randomly, not looking at guides or anything. Haven't spent any money on anything except some camp supplies, not bothering to...

I think so? I've talked a few times but have never heard anyone else talk, there doesn't seem to be a visual indicator for mic use but there are key binds and settings (squad or party based VOIP). Comically embarrassing they didn't have squad/team VOIP at launch. Really it should be squad VOIP...

Well, I bought 2042 on sale for $26CAD after the free weekend. I played 4 hours of the weekend across a mix of game modes and felt they fixed enough of the crap from the beta/release version a year ago to justify $26. I agree with everyone that is pales in comparison to BF4 (I put probably 1,200...

Anyone know the current state of this game on PC? Have the bug been ironed out? Looks fun and would like to play co-op, ray tracing etc. but if there's a risk of broken save games at 12h in that is a deal breaker for me.

Played through maybe 3 or 4 stages on the weekend with friends online co-op, was super fun and lots of nostalgia, worth the $25CAD on Steam. One annoying thing is since one friend was on Xbox Game Pass with us being on Steam, we had to waste 15min figuring out how to party together: the answer...
