seems like even the most fervent believers are already talking about this one in the past tense. too bad

not sure if reposted, but... server transfers delayed, no transfers between regions (EU to US, etc). https://www.pcgamer.com/new-world-server-transfers-delayed-due-to-edge-cases/

you may need to Underclock the GPU, which is a bummer, but ultimately may not be noticeable. I had what sounds like the exact same issue on my EVGA 980 GTX FTW, and it started when the card was still pretty new. took me a million years to find the solution. about seven, actually, cause I'm an...

yeah, I dont doubt that I'm an outlier. my buddy has gamepass for himself and his two preteen boys, and pays full ticket for all 3. I've been trying to convince him to take the 5 mins to get set up and start his dailies, and make his boys do theirs too if they want to keep the service. Youd'...

I doubt that most subs are doing the same, but I paid $1 for my first month and each month since has been free with about 5 mins/day spent completing Microsoft Rewards daily quests. such value!

it's gonna be a pain to reconvene without fully rerolling, as we're committing to factions on our individual servers. even when they open up free server moves, we'll presumably be stuck in our original faction until we're permitted to flip based on that server's faction status.

and thus, the FOH forum guild dissolved across multiple servers and factions, thanks to a shit launch and our collective need to be max level by day 2. or maybe we'll just make new characters after the dust settles so we can all hold hands as intended

can we assemble a google doc or something with player names and server names? maybe even preferred roles? (tank, heals, dps, PVP, pve, etc) if it can be shared with the group, maybe we can all self-report so that Bandwagon or someone else doesn't have to update it themselves? Nemnuts - Vingolf...

1hr later, halfway thru Q, now at 460. ugh. and I'm likely not even gonna play on this server!

Nemnuts on Vingolf Lord Nemesis on Kronomo Anyone playing on US-W? I see Xerge went to Kronomo instead of El Dorado. Probably gonna be spending more time on USW due to ping and work schedule.

got it, X. I'll roll up on both. Edaw, X did that a few pages back,

any consensus on a NA West server? where'd you land, Xerge?

the Xbox Wireless Controller USB adapter did the trick... no disconnects, and input lag is way down. bummer that it was necessary, but glad I can play wireless now.

thanks for the tip tried it, but no dice. the controller still starts blinking and I lose connection once every minute or two. the adapter comes tomorrow and I'm hoping that works... otherwise, I guess I'll plug in and play wired... fuck

I bought a new Xbox Wireless Controller for desktop PC gaming via bluetooth. connected the controller and found that every 30-60 seconds it loses and reestablishes its connection I read up on it online and found tons of reports of the same issue, with recommendations to download the XBOX...

Caved and bought it last night. Still very early on, but having fun!

looks fun, been watching it a bit. want to buy it, but get tired of burning out on EA only to lose interest before full release

Abeloth?

This is true, to an extent... it's a combination of things... 1) in RPG and adventure games, having autosave lock you into boss battles with sub 50% health and no potions, and youre wishing you'd have managed your inventory better 2) games like EQ where you can gimp yourself with something as...

OMG this.... why are we this way? This happens to me in most games that give me too many options and opportunities to self-gimp. Rimworld, Crusader Kings, Stellaris, pretty much any realm management/strategy game... and these are my favorite games, too. it hurts so bad

Cats in Hats on Drinal?

i haven't noticed any format/compatibility/scaling issues with my 38" UW, and ive played a ton of games on it in the last few months. maybe i'm getting gimped in some games and I just don't notice it, but I'd like to think that's not the case! my biggest gripe is the limitations with regard to...

just curious, how/why do you end up buying so much PC hardware? are you SamDaMan?

I'm a bit out of my realm here, but I remember reading about the potential PCIE lane bandwidth issue, depending on your mobo, and how that could be mitigated by mounting your M.2 cards directly onto a PCIE expansion card, like the one below: I watched a youtube vid on it some time ago that...

IMO, still need a sidecar for watching youtube and shitposting while gaming. curve too harsh for me, but maybe it makes sense on a monitor that wide not my pic, but here's the LG 38" ultrawide with 2300R curve next to the G9 with 1000R curve. personally, I prefer the 38", but I'd still go with a...

that's what i replaced a couple months ago. great monitor... unfortunately, it started flickering very faintly over time. I didn't notice until I was getting fatigued and migraines. my vote would be

I don't disagree with "Go IPS or Go Home", but for that price, and updating a 15 yr old monitor, I can't be mad at the guy. though, yes.... for the same price, he could have a 27" gigabyte IPS monitor (non-curved... you don't need a curve on anything 32" and under)...

I've had a somewhat similar issue for years on my 980 GTX. while gaming, my screen would go black, but i would continue to hear in-game sounds. then my monitor would throw up a "HDMI No Signal" error, and it was not recoverable without hard rebooting the whole system. after reading forums and...

i havent played the game, so this is just a guess... but I'd think that 28.8ms is your ping to the server, no? does the number vary significantly? edit: just re-read your follow up post, maybe it is frame time

you're right, tiling multiple small windows within the screen just isn't optimal. a split monitor is still much better, especially when gaming. I recently bought a LG 38" ultrawide (LG38WN95-C), thinking that it'd serve as an improved multi-tasking monitor over my previous 27" and 23" separate...

those are super solid. I didn't have a good reason to switch from my 17 yr old Logitech z2300s, they still bump for some computer desktop 2.1s. I just wanted speakers that were matte white

the YU4s are a world apart from the YU2s. they're a bit big, but the sound is great, and they are really responsive to EQ adjustment. before n after I've had no problem with the optical connection so far, but I'm curious... I just grabbed some Monster optical cable that I had in my bag o...

if humidity is really a problem, you could tuck some desiccant packs inside, too. I have one of these in the gun safe, probably overkill for a PC, but I'm not sure if plug-in rechargeable desiccant comes any smaller
