    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Just a heads up, each time the game crashes, it saves a 320mb file to your main HD. Never deletes them. I looked in my Madness folder....13gig worth of crash dumps. Edit: Crashed 2 more times since I posted this. I think that is 41 crashes since release, with 52hrs total played. Crazy.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    You seem to like to trash the game, which is fine. Do you have to play on low settings to make the game manageable? I could see why you'd say the game art is bad if so. The game world looks pretty good to me, especially the Forest / Grand Obelisk areas, and the armor / weapon designs are good as...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Hm, no. The game was never meant to be a "mmo like looter shooter". The Dev's got inspiration from the Diablo franchise when designing the game. I think the best comparison is to Remnants from the Ashes, but with a grindy endgame and loot like Diablo. I do not expect much from this game long...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    I noticed that as well. If you happened to play the entire game in a certain way that wasn't quite compatible with how the expeditions need to be ran, you're kinda sol. I liked hanging back and pew pewing mobs, but expeditions want you run up and shoot mobs in their faces as fast as possible...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Can farm legendaries via Contracts / Hunts, kinda tedious but they are quick, 10 of each type. Will drop at your current WT, but I think your Challenge Tier might affect their level as well. I'm at WT15 / CT8, and they drop at lvl42.

    Grab the demo. Play it with the understanding that it does get better.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    So I could have just been lucky, but each time I've completed a set of Hunts or Contracts, I get a random legendary weapon (contract) / armor (hunt). Disappointed with the Legendary weapons though, aside from looking great, they are nothing special beyond the t3 mod. They should have an innate...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Most people don't care for the slow movement, and the MG/PM setup in multiplayer sucks balls. Edit: Finished the campaign, ended up lvl30 / wt13. Everything after the Grand Obelisk felt really rough, especially the sound. The story also went to shit, up til then I thought it was alright. Zero...

    Do all the Hunts / Contracts, they are fairly quick and will give good gear. I find the Hunts give more epics off mobs than the Contracts.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    I mentioned earlier in the thread about the Hunts and Contracts that open up when you get to Trench Town. There are 10 of each, the Hunts reward epic armor and the Contracts reward epic guns. When you finish all 10 of either, you can reset and do them again. Really good XP / Wold xp as well. I'm...

    Don't upgrade the accessories, you'll get far better by doing the various Main Quests for each region. Get the Armor / Weapons to PEN, then talk to the black spirit or Fughar to get a quest to exchange them for Narcillan gear.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    I would say they (PCF) have no idea how to fix the issues they are having with servers. Some people thought it was due to MS PlayFab shitting the bed, but nope. Now PCF seems to be saying its an issue with Square Enix. Pretty fun game at least. The connectivity should clear up next week when...

    Winter 2021 Anime Thread

    Winter season was so good overall that I am already disappointed with the Spring season.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Along with the reddit post showing a connection with MS PlayFab, I am guessing the issue is on both ends. PCF made a miscalculation in how to configure their servers to interact with the Cloud, while the Cloud had a hiccup.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Nope. You can take a green up to Epic if you want, or a blue to Epic, but Epics will always stay at Epic (with max stats though).

    Are you upgrading your gear? Go for Firepower, and raise its attribute on whichever gear has it. Raise the lvl of your weapons too.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    The games engine is being funky like MHW in that Windows shows it using 0% GPU. Also, the DC's still happening a lot. If you're not in a rush to the "endgame" or to finish the campaign, once you get to Trench Town, you open up the bounties for Critters or Humanoids. You'll see new quests at...

    Unpacking, for 30m, thanks Steam. Wonder if Epic has the same download / unpack system, or is "unpacking" just "unlocking"?

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Dunno why you think there are only 7 expeditions when videos in this thread explaining the "endgame" say there are 13 + Eye of the Storm (at launch). Just because Solid doesn't have them all opened up doesn't mean there are only 7. Has anyone pre loaded on Steam? If so, what does is the release...

    I tried the demo out on my ps4 pro... and it was shit. I would never play a game that felt like that, I'd be surprised if it could run at a stable 30fps.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    You could always watch the vods of his demo sessions, he mentions / alludes to the time skip info (via discord) fairly often. I consider that to be a minor cheat, and only mentioned it due to being curious how PCF will handle his account in MP (though all the ppl he would MP with also did the...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    He 100% "cheats".. lol. He is where I got the info on how the time skip works, and that is all he did during the demo in regards to cheating. Last I looked at his stream he had not unlocked all the expeditions yet, he had like 5-6 including EoS available. I think there are a total of 14 that...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    I wonder if he got hit with the "cheater" tag, since he abused the fuck out of the time skip. People in his chat said he was using his demo account, but who knows. As far as "endgame", its the same as any other "looter" type game at its release. Limited, repetitive grind. As far as I can tell...

    Wheel of Time series

    Total woke trash. I looked through the WoT reddit way back with the casting for the main Two Rivers characters were released, so much hand waving away the obvious diversity hires for Egwene / Nyn / Perrin by saying all the Two Rivers folk would be dark skinned. Some of the other character...

    I bought the Klipsch Pro Media 2.1 system waaaay back in the early 2000's. The pre amp and main amp finally died about 2yrs ago. Great, long lasting system. So when doing anything on the computer I've been using headphones. Ordered a new set of the Pro Media which arrived today. Hearing music /...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    I'm sure millions will play MHR when its released on other platforms. You'll have Ps5/Xbx and PC all at once. Edit: What I'm curious about is how long Capcom will support Rise knowing that there will be a MHW2. I can't see a MHW2 coming out too soon after Rise is on the other platforms. So...

    Wussed out and bought a pair of Sennheiser HD 599's, lol. There was no way I could listen to the sets I was thinking of getting: HD6XX, DT 990's or the ATH-M50x. So I went with the set that reviewed closer to my 598's.

    All you need for fun PvP is knowledge/ experience. Gear is only needed for Sieges, which are a joke atm, or the higher end Node Wars. The T1 Node Wars are where are the fun is, and that is gear capped at like 220AP-240AP. If you're not planning to play long term, then none of your choices...

    Tough choice. The weapon exchange coupon set is very valuable for future use, but having a T8 is also really nice. I'd take the coupons since they have the potential to save you billions at a later date.

    Black Desert

    The Narchillan set is a bit "worse" than PEN Tuvala if you just look at sheet stats, but if you add in all the Monster Damage / Monster Damage Reduction, along with the set bonus the Narc set gets, then you can say Narc is a bit better or equal. Now if you're happy with your PEN Tuvala, and can...

    For those using a Secret Lab, which I've been thinking of getting as well, how has it held up? I'm a fairly big guy, 6'4" 242lbs. All the chairs I've used over many years have had the backrest warp in that it gives too much when I am at rest leaning back into it. Its like I get further and...
