    Battlefield 2042

    I used to check Portal but rarely found much beyond conquest and even then most servers were empty with low pings. Never saw any of the type of custom servers I would play on BF4 like 3 gun only, pistol only, sniper only, etc. Maybe they were gone before I started playing through Gamepass which...

    Battlefield 2042

    And I think I am done with the game. In the end I would give it a score of 5 out of 10 and have no regrets I didn't buy it. I never found a map I like. They just aren't great layouts and starting points are huge. You also since they are EA run servers have no active admins so you regularly...

    Any good games with offline bots?

    And you wouldn't even be able to play as a clan since they removed those features.

    Manor Lords - Early Access Release - 4/26/24

    Exactly. I want a fully fleshed out PC version of the mobile game where you are the king and swipe left or right to deal with issues as they come up. Don't bother me with planning peasants talk to my advisor. Oh he told you to talk to me, off with his head. Or make me the peasant and I am just...

    Manor Lords - Early Access Release - 4/26/24

    Reinstalled and now seems to be working. Quickly realized I always like the idea of these games, but never enjoy them myself. I get people love micromanaging a town, but I want more of a broad overview where I am signing off on stuff and not manually placing everything.

    Manor Lords - Early Access Release - 4/26/24

    Installed via game pass, but never get past the spinning signing in so no idea if login server is down or just an issue with game pass.

    WARTALES

    I need to try this again. I fired it up on console, but didn't care for trying to play it on the TV. I then tried it once I built only to get annoyed when my archer hit another of my guys even though he wasn't even near the path of the arrow and someone was next to him who should have been the...

    Gigaplus 8-port 2.5G 2-port 10G switch $69

    I completely get it, but none of my unmanaged switches from the big companies have ever received firmware updates either. 2.5g is seen as enterprise hardware so they price it accordingly. Motherboards have had 2.5g nics since at least 2021 and yet the switches still haven't dropped in price. I...

    Gigaplus 8-port 2.5G 2-port 10G switch $69

    These are always tempting. I wish the big brands would actually have comparable prices. Trendnet's similar switch is $206 on sale. With more motherboards starting to include 2.5g it would be nice to upgrade my switches.

    Battlefield VII (In Development)

    Give me BF4 and the BF3 close quarters maps with destruction, dedicated servers, clan run custom servers like we had back in the BF3 and BF4 days. I miss my bolt action only servers, pistol only, knife only, etc. Just make Portal good and its own thing. Port all the maps and eliminate the...

    Any good games with offline bots?

    Especially considering this season is supposed to be the last with focus shifting to the upcoming battlefield. https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/whats-ahead-2042?utm_campaign=bf2042_hd_ww_ic_soco_twt_whatsahead2042

    Evil West

    I tried it on gamepass and the colors were the first thing I noticed. Definitely distracting. I didn't get very far though since one of the first big fights in the tutorial no matter what I did I ended up stuck in a wall with a camera that couldn't see anything.

    Digital Drawing Tablets like Wacom and Hurion?

    I think if I was on a single monitor and a 16:9 it might have been better, not to mention being restricted to a small 512x512 or 10/24x1024 workspace. I think using two monitors and a 21:9 it was like using a mouse with the DPI maxed out. The laptop is a perfect example since it would be a...

    Battlefield 2042

    In this case it was infantry Rush so we got trampled since he would pretty much solo wipe out everyone around a point. The issue is more that EA tells you they will send you a follow up of the result of the report. More often than not, the EA report comes back with we detected nothing wrong or...

    Battlefield 2042

    Just played a MP match and quickly reminded why I only play solo now with no custom clan servers. one and only one player went 150 kills when everyone else averaged 20-25. Oddly enough he always seemed to snap to you. Couldn't figure out how to report, but from reading online it doesn't do...

    Digital Drawing Tablets like Wacom and Hurion?

    My attempt with the Wacom Intuos ended in failure. 1. I realized I didn't like trying to use it while looking up at the screen. 2. Since I was using it in Krita to work with Stable Diffusion, I was locked in to a sheet around 1024x1024 or less. This wouldn't have been as big of a deal, but...

    Any good games with offline bots?

    You don't even need portal. You can play Conquest, Breakthrough and a few other modes solo or co-op against bots. This is mainly all I play in it just to unlock stuff. You don't get full XP, but you get partial.

    No Man's Sky - a procedurally generated sand box space exploration game

    Your images looked stretched? Maybe it is just the embedded images on my monitor, but it reminds me of the into image that is stretched and squashed. Wasn't sure if maybe the resolution reset after the update. I realized another issue I have with this game. I don't know if the controls just...

    Diablo IV - The Real Official Thread

    I have never understood why none of the ARPGs, maybe there is one I don't know about, have embraced more of a model where you are actually taking back the world. D4 would be much more interesting to me if the world was restored as you fought with other players to push back everything. It is...

    Diablo IV - The Real Official Thread

    I guess that is the difference between ARPG fans and some ARPGs players like myself these days. I grew up playing ARPGs before seasons were even a thing which I know others have also here, but they just hold zero interest for me. I have never once bothered with a season. The closest I have come...

    Xbox game pass PC

    I do ok on it. Mainly play BF2042 these days. Figure I will also give Diable IV a run and maybe try Evil West. I am also waiting to see if UFC 5 ever comes. I played a bit of 4 on Xbox.

    Vindictus: Defying Fate

    The original was released a year before Dark Souls. I thought maybe you were talking about Divine Souls which I think released around the same time as Vindictus in 2010.

    Vindictus: Defying Fate

    Playtest is live. You can request access through Steam link and I was instantly approved. Which DS? Too many games with those initials.

    Grim Dawn Alpha starts tomorrow

    Thanks. I definitely need a hoarder mod. I am bad about keeping loot and never enjoyed loot tetris. Is rainbow still needed or am I thinking of another mod? I remember reading at one point some loot mod being incorporated.

    Grim Dawn Alpha starts tomorrow

    I keep forgetting about this game. Installed it while waiting for my GPU and then never fired it up. I grabbed GrimTex 4x. Anything else worth installing modewise? I never beat the game so more just looking for enhancements rather than a complete overhaul mod assuming there even is such a thing.

    Digital Drawing Tablets like Wacom and Hurion?

    Old thread, but curious what everyone is using. I have been playing with Stable Diffusion and just got Krita up and running with it for live renders so I want a tablet to dabble with. No idea if I will stick with it, but I figure something to play with. It will be attached to my desktop so...

    On the hunt for my next monitor after 10 years on a TN panel

    Figured I would update this and close it out. I ended up with the Asus XG349c which is the 34" 21:9 IPS panel. At first this thing looked like it was going to be huge out of the box, but I pretty quickly adapted. It is a bit too tall for TV use even bottomed out, but it works. I couldn't...

    Dragon's Dogma 2

    This has been my gripe for years especially considering we had things like the GHOUL system in Soldier of Fortune 1 and 2 in the 90s. I guess in some ways it is still a console limitation? People always waved their hand about it when I mentioned it so we must be in the minority. Oh look blood...
