Thanks for the heads up on Fallout London, looks interesting.

Agreed. I don't expect them to copy the plot from any of the games, they are free to make their own story in the Borderlands universe. But if it is to make sense it needs to at least capture the feeling of the games and Pandora, and the main characters here just seem wrong in their intended...

I love the games and have amassed more than a thousand hours in them, but making movies based on games just seems like a quick cash grab. Maybe if they have picked up something from the Tales From The Borderlands games it could be OK, but the casting would still feel wrong to me.

Looks OK I guess, but a FPS mode would be nice. And I hope there isn't a lot of those stupid "These guys never quit!" and "That went well!" phrases, over and over, like you're stuck in a straight to video 80's action movie.

That's actually required by law, if I'm not mistaken. But there's more to this than greed. The developement cost has risen, components are more expensive now and the market has shrunk significantly, thus making the price of each unit dearer to recoup costs.

Looks like the priority when casting was to get the biggest names for the least amount of money, betting that very few of the audience would have any knowledge of the games anyway. But what makes the games fun are the sheer craziness and fast pace of everything, casting the Golden Girls for that...

You don't have to wait. Just buy the originals on the cheap and head to the Nexus for fan made graphical upgrades that will likely more than match these "remasters".

I wish for a remake of X-Wing and Tie Fighter, with proper new age graphics.

Hahaha, that is quite amusing. :)

Maybe it has been answered in this thread before, but how are the NPC's this time around? Are they more natural acting than in previous games or do they still say random things like "I took a laser to my knee" when you pass them? The random sentences spoken out loud was something that really...

Sacrifice.

I'm sure this series has been made to be monsters for AI, scientific and rendering purposes first of all, improvements in gaming is just a side effect.

That would be the proper way of doing it. Where did you get that number btw?

When are the first independent tests expected?

Does the 70% profit margin include the cost of R&D and parts that needs to be rejected in production due to faults, things like that?

The price increase is not surprising at all when you think about how much money you need to spend on R&D to get something better than the last gen these days. Performance wise, all low hanging fruit must have been picked a long time ago. And they need to recoup R&D as well as production costs...

Seems pretty standard in the picture, will be interesting to see if the rumours around the power requirements are indeed true.

That's the fake one I mentioned earlier in this thread.

Yeah, I'm Norwegian so the Queens English is what we learn in school. We see people of colour as well, with the exception of those who pretend they can't see what colour a persons skin has.

What is the company making these? I remember a similar fake robot killer video making the rounds some years ago, so I am sceptical. Have they just used a remote control or just a toy robot and added a gun to it, or is this an actual existing product?

The removal of the "Never combine taskbar" is extremely annoying. 🤬🤬 And in addition to that, notifications about new emails or messages have gone from making the icon blink yellow as an alert, to just a tiny number or icon that you really have to look for. 🤬🤬 I'm sure it is the newest trend in...

Is there any way to improve the black level on the G2? Or any mods to improve the sound level, as I feel the speakers are too low to feel immersive in certain situations.

Well, at least you guys can join a queue. In Norway you can't even order one and wait until it is in stock. The closest I've come to a 3080 was a competition where the first prize was that you would be able to buy one at MSRP. :(

Great game overall, but the engine has a limited draw distance that cause some irritating pop-ins that breaks immersion a bit. But highly recommended anyway, and I'm looking forward to KCD II.

Gothic I & II and Risen was excellent open world games, even if a bit quirky at times.

Yeah, maybe AMD was hit harder than Nvidia, but I was still regretting not buying a 1080Ti at full price for years after it was released. Ended up with a slightly faster 2080S in the end, and I'm sure that will have to last me well into 2022 at least.

Was there reallly a big crash after the first mining craze? I can't say I remember it was, other than that the availability increased. No dirt cheap cards flooding the second hand market that I can remember.

Exactly. There is no way I can this being allowed, at least not in the suburbs where shrieking kids is the only sound allowed. Drones are incredibly noisy and will stay that way until anti-gravity engines are invented.

This. I was 25 in 1993 and had just built my first PC that was overclocked with dip switches by mistake, and the next 10 years were the best for gaming and HW. Hell, I upgraded twice a year and could expect a doubling in performance each time :happy:. But the games were great too, you could...

I guess the game didn't sell enough to warrant a sequel.

Maybe they could make some money on a Redux version with completed VR support? There's a lot more VR kits out there today than it was in 2014, that's for sure.

Everybody gets death threats these days, threatening to kill someone is the new way of saying "Fuck You!".

Voodoo 1, can't remember the make.

So why do the game benchmarks show little difference between the 3080 and the 3090, even though the latter has more than twice the memory of the former? The Eurogamer 3090 review shows 7 frames between them at 4K. MS Flightsim 2020 is the same, actual difference is negligible.

With 16 Gb of RAM I'd say you should expect something north of 300W.

This! It reminds me of how EA treated the unexpected success that was Dragon Age: Origin, where everyone had just assumed that isometric RPGs was something that people just didn't want anymore. DA:2 changed the formula for some reason, probably to get more console players, DA:I even further to...

Bring back Deekin!

People have said Flightsim 2020 requires a lot of VRAM to run properly, but the 24Gb 3090 is only about 15% faster than the 3080 in F.S 2020, the same amount as in other games. So again, allocated VRAM memory is not the same as needed.

Looks very interesting indeed. I love Stanislaw Lem as well, one of my favourite authors, so I'm looking forward to this.

They will bring back both when the time comes, ie soon for the Halloween one. They are supposed to be a yearly thing.
