What are you playing?

I noticed something about the performance issues with 7 days to die. I got curious and loaded up gpuz to see what was going on during the game. To my surprise, even though the FPS was below 60, the card performance was capped due to utilization. I then noticed the vram (2GB) was pretty much saturated. I did a quick and dirty OC to 1700MHz and the game appears to perform better now. Gonna push the vram to whatever I can get it to now...

I noticed GPU Boost doesn't affect the vram... at least not on the earlier cards. I've long considered gpu oc more or less irrelevant with the introduction of GPU Boost, but... it doesn't touch the vram, so my manual overclocking is still relevant, it seems!

Well GPU Boost only Boosts to a set amount anyway, so overclocking is still useful. My GPU would only boost to about 1000-1050 MHz, with the overclocking it's doing 1150-1219 MHz.

I've been playing L.A. Noire. I must be the worst cop in history. I don't see how you're supposed to pick up hints from staring at their face.

Play connect the dots with their pimples and find the answer.

Playing the gpu overclocking game now. Scanning for errors with occt. Trying to find the max spot for the vram. I picked a high value, and drop down 100mhz as soon as I see an error. 7500mhz looked good but did produce errors, though much more slowly than higher values... hopefully I get a good speed out of this thing and improve my gaming performance a bit.

OCCT 40 minutes without an error at these settings

Playing Stardew Valley. I don't get why people say it is "like" Harvest Moon when it is effectively a Harvest Moon clone. The only major difference I've seen so far is that Stardew Valley has combat in the mines instead of trapped boulders (positive or negative buffs on breaking them). Like Harvest Moon, game gets very dull and repetitive quickly. Luckily, I'm heavily drugged and will remain so for over a week so I'll actually be able to stick to Stardew Valley and maybe actually see some end-game content. I never could stick to any Harvest Moon game for more than 10 hours but I never played them medicated either.

the motion capture Team Bondi did was expensive but super awesome!

LOL damn this was some serious fun... get's rough when you bump the bots above masterful though, 14 of them on one map is disastrous lol.

How you are supposed to tell if the person is lying or not is frustrating.

*shrug* it's been 3-4 years since I last played it.

Use a guide. After you use a guide for a while, you'll start to...get it...and won't rely on it so heavily anymore.

oh well... been playing SWTOR latest extension ... i've remembered i had an account, when i did find back my key authenticator box tugged between some other DVD boxes ...

heck ... so much changed but still fun ... nonetheless i forgot i was on the wrong side of the servers ... and my char were split between 2 french server ... (friend shift and no server transfer at the time ), well that's not an issue with the legacy unlock i can share any cartel item i won in the past between any char in any server ... tho...

my favorite outfit being incomplete (missing belt gloves and boots) it's not registered in Legacy collection unlock ... drat and double drat! (oh btw ... ironically 2 of my republic char are true sith race .... just for fun ... that got me some comment back in the days ... )

naaahhh lets see the end story ...

ok, i get it ... Vaylin does not like me bohoo ... oh well her brother and mother help me flawlessly to get rid of her ... or so i thought... then the last chapter ... in ... my character's mind ... hurk ... even for a Story mode that fight is horrendously hard.

mmhhh need to gear up, the last chapter can wait ... ohhh Star Fortress Arc ... interesting
nonetheless ... Lana Beniko almost make up for the missing Jaesa Willsaam ... or not ...


good point the game give you a mean to get back your originals companion... i couldn't bare it to miss Jaesa Wilésaam

gearing up is all a matter of credit ...armoring, mods, hilts, soph if using adaptive gear .... all are "player made" for the more advanced (opposed to generic sold by npc vendors only up to 65)

good point, credit farming was made easier and less boring ... so i could get some cartel shinnies without spending any real $$$

YES that's more like it!

Mostly emulators. No feeling like upscaling an older game with HDR shaders and such.

 

[GreiverBlade]

funny one is funny ... doing some "asset recruitment" i missed during the story ...

don't mess with the Jawa ... specially when they have weapons ...

rofl i just noticed on the second pics ... the Jawa with the Vibro-Sword is priceless


and finally going dark-side ... i tended to remain neutral (Swiss syndrome? eh? ) well ... blackened eye contour yellow-orange'ish iris ... pale and veiny complexion? it seems the Sith have rather geekish traits ...

@Jizzler I love FF V, though I only played the Advance version release for the GBA. It's sad that it's overshadowed by FF IV and FF VI maybe because it's story is less deep compared to the two but I always thought it was a good game and had a much more interesting system (ie. the job system) compared to FF IV. The in-game musics are awesome too. What is weird though, is why is the game (also III, IV and VI) region-locked on Steam? It doesn't make any sense to me.

Oh, you probably had a better first experience than I did.

When Anthology (V + VI) came out VI was already a huge classic and came with bonus content such as FMV cut-scenes, artwork, etc. The biggest thing about V was that it was translated. That's cool and all, it allowed many in NA to play this game for the first time but VI had a bigger release and following. On top of that, the ports did not play very smoothly on the PlayStation so that dulled the reception.

Also, FF Tactics had been out for a year and became one of my favorite games to play. For those who haven't played, Tactics is the Final Fantasy after V to use a job-system. Besides the benefits of being a native PlayStation game, it also has an amazing story, music, and more.

With all of that said, this time around I'm having a much better experience with the PC port (which Wikipedia tells me is based on the Android port).

@Jizzler I'm definitely going to play FF Tactics this year. I have it for the PSP. Just need to beat some other games first before I come to it. Hopefully won't be too long.

I built this in 7 days to die... I call it "Hypothermia Tower". The idea is to cause myself to freeze (with a combination of extreme elevation and being in the water), which causes my character to be hungry. As I get hungry, I can spam wellness increasing foods...

HI, playing some Fallout 4 with texture mods , Started playing with a friend Conan Exiles and Warhammer 40000 Verminthide .

 

[AlienIsGOD]

playing early access Conan Exiles, survival games arent really my thing but i figured i'd give this a shot as its more visually appealing then minecraft

Still playing NFS: No Limits on mobile.

If you're curious, here's a video of me playing it:

Still playing NBA 2K17 here. Only the Conference Finals and the NBA Finals games left. Should be done in a 3-4 days.

Spoiler: NBA 2K17

Meanwhile, I'm also spending some time on Raptor: Call of the Shadows. I love this game. Used to play it when I was a kid. I've just finished the Bravo Sector.

Spoiler: Raptor
