    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    That just means, they trash canned the old card. Its so they can keep track of what they are using as replacements so when they go to pay AMD for the chips, they can be refunded for the replacement ones.

    Marathon (Bungie)

    I doubt it, the original writers for Marathon and even for Pathways Into Darkness(Never verified as a prequel, but there is a lot of things that appear in Marathon that are from it.) are gone. Durandal vs Tycho would have been really cool seeing it in current game engines...

    Tallest mount they ever had, but I guess the Achievement one(The 500k all DoL/H) is taller. Also all the Disciple of Hand, Cosmic tools actually have the Endwalker + Quality effect.. I'm guessing with all the extra effects they are applying to the tools they just forgot to add the flavor text.

    Marathon (Bungie)

    I wonder how much of it was gutted, after Concord bombed and Sony had to re-think the "Live-Service" model. Seems for it being in dev for such a long time, it has a LOT of missing content.. This is the thing, Bungie has always been king of PvE encounters, while Destiny I/II I don't really care...

    The Current stage relic is good for Fisher(Overall) for Miner/Botanist the current stage relic is good for just collectables, which .. there isn't much of getting them required on moon(I think there is like 8-10 of the missions that require reduction) If the Crafting ones have a effect it will...

    So finally had a Critical, "Red Alert" You will get a 5min warning before it starts, no Mech OPs will run also. Its tied to weather conditions, so I'm thinking after 3-4 different Mech OPs the next weather change will cause it too happen. There will be 2 sets of I'm calling them "Leve Fates"...

    Ya we just did the Cosmoliners also, waiting on next cycle. The new "Levequest" stuff is really cool though, the crafting items are just given to you, and gathering items are just removed when you turn in. Still waiting for a Critical Quest(They seem to be based off of Weather Cycles, and...

    My Inventory/Retainers are very very happy right now .... rofl The cosmopouch is an exclusive inventory reserved for supplies, crafted items, and gathered materials used in cosmic exploration. I still have a shit load of Diadem items just haven't had time to craft it all up.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    You are designing a game for a very specific group of people if you are doing it without any kind of Instance system, wouldn't be a tech limit at all(Unless the devs are Copy/Paste Warriors). Its really simple to create instances in current engines..

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    I am done with farting around with linux in general, I just want to play my games without jumping thru hoops, Proton has gotten better over the years, but it's still fucking WINE with a shiny new skin. I'm not having issues with Win11, they just moved some things around not a big deal.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    No glass on my new case. I only see my tower once a year these times, just to clean it out, replace fans that are annoying me and redo thermal paste. I would have just used my old case still, but some odd reason newer CPUs require more airflow.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    As far as Win11 I know a lot of people are pissed because according to the next preview build you will no longer be able to by-pass having a Windows Login, they are fixing the loophole in the pro version, and removing the over all script that lets you set Win11 into a "Build" mode, it lets you...

    Went into Microcenter about a week ago, left with new PC parts came out to about 1800 all said and done. Had to wait for a case though, sense they didn't have any non-RBG puke cases. They were very sad when I said it was a 8 hour drive and I wasn't gonna be back in the area for a long time...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    It honestly is just a cost problem I think, they are still not charging a sub fee, so upkeep on dead servers is just a drain on what funds they have. I doubt they have been really pushing what servers they have right now.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    If the servers are idling half the time cause of pop drop-off. Is it worth it to keep the lights on for that server? Is it worth it to have too patch multiple servers that are mostly sitting idle, every time they update? If they are actually still in early dev mode, they will be fine tuning...

    It can be affected by other crit % increasing abilities, but is not affected by Reassemble at all, it's only a 700 potency dmg punch also and drops off really fast for the AE.

    There is a point of any game, were you just gotta go.. "I think I've done enough." be it vanilla/modded it is something every creator has to think about. I think the Gate being the final challenge(albeit not much of a secret now a days) is perfect. And nice on the mini-game, good idea for a...

    You get several One shot abilites on Mecha(against normal mobs).. Chainsaw,Excavator,Drill can all be crit adjust with reassemble.. I'm still wondering why Full-Metal Field can't be crit adjusted.. Just seems odd for how rare it pops up.

    Also lag plays a big deal , for Speed stats everyone is different sense every ones lag is different. Which is why there are usually 3-4 different sets of materia/equipment.

    I have a feeling that another stat squish is coming with the next expansion.. You can already smash the circles of Pandæmonium(S) skipping a lot of mechs from just the "base" Item lvl.

    Vector math is fun.. Literally the only time I've used it, outside of work stuff although it did take me a few tries to get it. I didn't nab as many screenshots of the Pyramids. If I remember right I had like 9-12 of them, it's been a few years.

    Yoshi did say that eventually they want to make a "skip" available for new players, basically it would just be a quick recap of the Ascian/Scion Story but would include the heavy hits of the story over all, you would technically start at DT ...

    4th boss is always easier, sense they are a "door" boss they don't want to show too much on just Normal Raids. You can get slight hints at what they are gonna be doing for Savage Mode, how the "Gun Charges" showing Chariot/Dynamo "with" a color is a big hint. Honey Bee is just a ctrl-c/ctrl-v...

    Arcardion is the Raid series for DT , we are still a long ways away from the first "Circle" being released. Guess thats what I get for being so busy, releases patch night.

    Both EXs a really brutal at the start. I will say this though, so far all 3 trials have some of the most unique abilities I've ever seen them make, I guess actually being able to print on screen has helped them greatly to be able to make callouts simpler(The boss will first literally "Tell you...

    The VA literally only has 1 "pitch" for the voice so anytime it's sad/excited it's always that same "pitch" which is just annoying as fuck, at least the JP VA tried and did much better work with it.

    After awhile, gil is pointless sense all gear comes from Tomes/Totems. It's why they have been slowly adding Gil sinks into the game, via the Golden Mounts.

    I've had a few really weird dx11 crashes, might be cause of the fragmentation problems they've been having on other platforms also. They are usually pretty quick to fix the problem, but it sounds like it's really a headache issue.
