What are you playing?

I finally finished Mirror's Edge a couple of months ago but am terribly stuck on Catalyst mission 7 (Fly Trap) where you have to defeat KrugerSec on the roof.
It's like an extended boss fight, but there are so many enemies coming in waves, that I'm finding it impossible to beat them.
That combat is actually pretty easy after you get used to it. Still sucks tho that there's no firearms like in first Mirror's Edge.
 
Finally finished Dishonored 2. Will do a Corvo violent run a few weeks later. In the meantime gotta research my library for a good game again.
 
Decided to fire up GTA IV. Say what you say but this is my personal favourite GTA ever. :toast:

I never tried GTA IV. Before GTA V, IIRC, I only remember playing GTA III with my Athlon T-bird 900 Mhz. (Except when I sometimes played on my Athlon XP Thoroughbred 2000+, which was my July, 2003 upgrade from my T-bird setup.)

GTA III, the first GTA that got me hooked! GTA III, made GTA II and before look like Halo Spartan Assault, LOL! (Now, that Halo version was fail-tacular!)

I had GTA III on PS2 before I got drained into PC gaming, you can imagine how much I also played that!

GTA IV still sucks though for one reason, it's optimized hella bad for PC, even my R5 3600/1080 Ti rig doesn't give stable 60fps. Though I don't care even anymore as I've used that there are some fps dips on that. Hell, I had 8800 GTS 320 when I first finished it. :laugh:
 
Satisfactory, starting to build skyscrapers for better efficiency. Tier 7&8 is in view but it will take a few more hours to reach that milestone.
I must MUST resist of destroying my current facilities and build only skyscrapers or worse start a fresh game. :D

Weee!


GTA III was the best GTA cause it was the first non-top down version. GTAIV was/is a modders heaven.

Now since I have been in Legoland one time, the game loads up in Legoland every time, a bit annoying...
 
As a NFS MW/U2 fan, Heat is the next best thing we'll have until remakes are out.. if ever. Lots of customization in Heat though, it's almost as good as in U2 or MW.

I still want a MW 2005 remaster though.. :)
 
wow those amazing graphics, looks absolutely stunning :love:
Much more detail in 1440p compared to 1080p, I'm glad I made the switch.

hi m8,

I'm 1020 hours into Satisfactory and couldn't think of starting new/fresh game = too much time invested.

Also, just started the game yesterday with the latest v4.0 update which is awesome in Tiers 7 + 8.

Only caveat is some of my assembly lines stopped working as the parts recipes had changed with the v4 update.

i can't afford a 1440p monitor and my 750 ti can barely run newer games at 1080p low with 60fps

27" 1440p is indeed the sweet spot. I'm still holding out for $449 or less 240hz 27" 1440p, I thought it would happen sooner than now... bleh. pretty happy with my monitor though, its probably one of the best 1080p IPS ever made. the motion clarity/brightness, colors, are absolutely stellar for the price I paid. Plus there are some games like AC Valhalla, I would rather get a solid 165 fps 165hz even with medium settings to achieve it. and I can't do that at 1440p with my hardware. I prefer the smoothness over everything else. that being said, most of my games can handle 1440p just fine.
 
Testing, in BeamNG, how much traffic is enough for realism and frames.

Auto settings gives amazing frames but the density of traffic is meh.

I didn't do it, officer.

And 64 is a bit too much..

And now back to Satisfactory.

It's fun and it takes a lot of RAM when loaded even though when the world is really way too small you can drive in.
 
Let's continue GTA IV, I simply just love this game. :toast:

My RX 480 can't really handle 144 FPS on this 1440p 144 Hz monitor, but some games run very nicely over 100 FPS. I don't have to play the latest and greatest right now, I can wait a year to get a decent GPU for a normal price, no hurry.
 
Wolfenstein The Old Blood - Done

… so im done with all of them except Young Blood, I'm skeptic due to all the bad comments
and I don't wanna sour my awesome experience of the previous Wolfenstein parts.

SW Jedi Fallen order - Done
really enjoyed the story

im struggling to decide if installing Nier Automata ( even though i want that fanservice) or trying to find another good game on gamepass,
damn the space/download of Gears 5 :twitch::twitch::twitch:

Then it's good timing for NieR Automata. It just recently got it's first PC patch after being out for 4 years.

I suppose that it's a good game? My friend (that guy who has that hella handsome cat - I've posted pics of that furball on the feline thread) likes it and he has also a shirt of that game. :D

I can't give you a personal recommendation since I haven't played it yet but from what I hear from other gamers who have played it is that it is a very good game.

Probably @rtwjunkie has played it. Maybe he can tell you more.
