    DOOM

    Multiplayer was made by a different studio (Certain Affinity) who is responsible for most or all of the recent Halo multiplayer, so there's your answer on that unfortunately.

    Yea that's the likely upgrade course for most 980ti owners I'd wager. Unless as above there are some HUGE gains in real world 1440p performance it'll be waiting for the TI edition for a lot of us.

    DOOM

    What is so wrong about being excited by Brutal Doom with modern graphics? I don't need every game to be a gigantic series of cinematic action pieces, sometimes I just want to rip demons faces off with my bare hands and see their HD textured giblets.

    DOOM

    This game is almost as good as Brutal Doom, which means it's actually pretty fucking awesome. 60$ awesome is a bit of a hard sell considering Brutal Doom exists, but it's quite good.

    If evga or whoever launches an OC card that actual puts out a 50% performance gain over a 980 ti? Hnnnnnngggg time to go spend money.

    Anyone for ubers tomorrow or sometime this weekend? I've got 24 keys stocked up now and seems silly to run them all solo.

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    DNS problems, 100%. Your modem is likely using the Comcast resolvers by default which are huge piles of dookie and go down pretty regularly (especially in the chicago/midwest area, oh don't I know it). You can check this a couple of ways, either on an individual machine by assigning a static...

    Or don't slouch like a fucking mongoloid and buy a decent chair to replace your Office Max 100$ "executive leather office chair". I work from home exclusively and spend 8+ hours every day doing IT shit in front of my computer and then however many random hours playing games after that. Often...

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    Time for process of elimination. Wire something direct to the modem and see if it still loses the signal, if it does you've got an isp issue or the modem itself is just a brick. Very unlikely the router is causing it, as you'd see failures in the interface/local network rather than just...

    Think 4k will be doable even with the new nvidia cards? All their presentation bluster sounds amazing, but there's no benchmarks yet and it'd have to be a truly herculean leap forward to be able to run AAA titles at 4k and 60fps reliably.

    Heh, they are both IPS too! Maybe it is just what I play? I'm on a 6700k/980ti currently and probably the most taxing game I've played lately is The Division, though I don't actually recall if I tried that on the 2nd monitor or not? Maybe I'm just too much of a stickler for 60+fps and need to...

    I cannot believe people are actually complaining about this being 40$. For all the games we've seen absolutely dumpstered by shitty f2p models I'd think people would be fucking ecstatic about a 40$ boxed copy that is the "complete game".

    I have both a gsync and a freesync 1440p/144hz and you literally cannot tell a difference between the two (freesync isn't enabled on the 2nd monitor) unless you tank your framerate way down in to the 30s. I'm sure gsync doessomethingin the 100+ range but you'll never see it.

    Overwatch

    The 99% thing also happens because it won't actually give you the 100% until there are no enemies contesting it anymore, so it can get stalled out there for a long time by winston/reinhart etc.

    I mean yea, I'm sure there is matchmaking of some kind out there, but I like playing Widow and even a moderately played Genji mostly ruins my life no matter how good I am at her.

    Laptop Computers

    The real issue you're going to run in to is finding a mobile motherboard that even supports anything more than 16gb of ram. Very very few of them (if any?) will have more than a pair of dimm slots, so you're talking about either having 16gb as your cap with a 2x8 setup, or maybe getting 32 with...

    Game is a riot, but I feel like once the player base levels up and the real autists for tracer/genji start to come out of the woodwork I'll be having a lot less fun.

    Yea the reload on dodge roll thing breaks a lot of guns wide open.

    Gsync is really only important if your framerate is gonna dip below 60 pretty often it feels like. I've got a gsync monitor and it seems no different at all than using my old 144hz monitor, but again I don't play anything right now that would ever dip below 60fps anyway. Unless you want to...

    Enter the Gungeon

    There's really two ways of handling with the mouse. One is to just click mouse1 to fire, which also has the advantage on certain guns of firing faster. All the revolvers for example have a higher fire rate when you click rather than hold. It also cuts your reload time a ton for single shot...

    Enter the Gungeon

    Gamepad has auto aim but is still much shitter shooting than with a mouse. Dodgerolling and movement in general is better with an analog stick though. I prefer keyboard overall, having dodge roll on mouse2 and reload on a thumb button is what feels best so far.

    Enter the Gungeon

    Shop on the first floor will always have a key if you haven't found one yet, so always check it first so you can pick up a key for 25 brass. Secret rooms are slanted towards sticking off of the dungeon map rather then being someplace interior, so better to check outer walls for them...

    New intel cpus are on a new socket, so you'd need a new mobo. Wouldn't bother with that route anyway, you'd see negligible gains in gaming from a new cpu right now. New video card is really what you're looking at, and unless AMD pulls some miracle out of their ass (unlikely) it's a 1070 or...

    Can confirm, roadhog is bae. There are few things as satisfying in this game as hooking a tracer or a widowmaker and just executing them.

    Definitely check your temps, if the fans are running super fast/loud the actual heatsink portion may not be properly mounted to the cpu. I have an h105 or something like that and it idles at like ~20-25c on a 6700k, so it should keep most cpus at 30c or less under no load. Highest I think...

    No it won't. New renderer has been a long time coming and the performance gains are fairly significant, but it's still too little too late. This is the first major update the game has had in...years? Since it went in to early access? Everything else has been item faffery and that shitty truck...

    Great weapons dome those things pretty instantly too. Just charge a swing with an ultra greatsword or greataxe, soak their first bite with hyper armor, then just smash them in the face for a stagger in to visceral and they die instantly.

    Dark Souls 3

    Bloodborne might have been the best if it wasn't a goddamn PS4 exclusive. The shit tier framerate just ruined that game for me. I'm not usually one to be such a stickler for it when it comes to console games, but in a game look Souls/Bloodborne it's just fucking murder for my enjoyment...

    Wait for Friday, should see some benchmarks pop up by then or the weekend. the 1070 or however they name it eclipsing a 980 ti is pretty unlikely, but it'll definitely be a step up from a 970, maybe even on par with a 980? For what it's worth I sold my 980 about 2 months ago for ~300$, so...

    Well, a lot of us already have like 100+ hours in DS2 between the original and scholars relaunch, so sure, plenty of the areas are pretty well figured out. I honestly don't know how someone not already familiar with DS2 is supposed to play scholar from scratch. They added so much pure rape to...

    The rap video is the cringiest fucking thing I've seen in a long time. Deltron on the other hand is timeless and awesome, and they actually had some pretty sick animation for that.

    Hyper armor is indeed tied to the weapon, and mostly to the size of it. Being fully naked with an ultra greatsword you won't get staggered out of attack animations as long as you've started it before getting hit. You'll take an asston of damage cause of the way armor and mitigation works, but...

    You need a dawn for your cube really badly. Go upgrade 1h crossbows a few and you'll get one quick, 100% uptime on vengeance is super good. Otherwise your next biggest piece needs to be a manticore.
