Piracy IS stealing. You know, like what you yourself do on your PC.

Cracks are not piracy if one buys the game.

Wrong and wrong, but expected from you.

A draw for you as you need.

 

[crackajack]

One could think those DRM fuck ups are deliberate publicity stunts how often those happens. But who in their right mind would buy a game because some negative controversy of worsened performance brought a game back to their attention? I guess a check should have at most minimal impact, but in the range that it cannot even be measured.

No, that's not the full picture though. Copying the software is only the first part. Then you need to upload it somewhere and someone needs to download it without paying the original author. That final part completes the piracy act.

just copying your disc alone and not uploading it or selling it, etc, is not the same thing. It's a different, less severe violation and lumping everyone under the same umbrella makes you look unreasonable.

Correct. Not the full picture. Just copying at very best is ToS and/or DMCA "breaking".

But it's not piracy. It's the wording that matters here. Piracy assumes a more severe act that it can even make you end up in jail in some situations. Making your own backup for personal use is not the same. It may be inconvenient for publishers if you circumvent their DRM because they can't control your purchase but nobody really gives a shit except for them.

?? That is what I meant. Just copying is not piracy. Distributing the copy is.

Will there be a DLSS mod for the new DRM? Or what do you guys do to get the best image quality on a NV GPU? DLDSR?

 

[Closer]

oh no 85 instead of 95 fps what weillw e do now? is it in a cpu bound scenario too? would make these youtube clowns even more funny.

Oh no my 95hz monitor now shows this game stuttering! What do I do now, o god of clowning?

Native.

I will try later the FSR4 with Optiscaler.

In the video i've seen native TAA had a lot of shimmering, which should be reduced by alot when downscaling from 4k to 1440P (DLDSR).
The DLSS mod is supposed to have issues with the UI, is that still true?

No idea.

The whole copy yes. The program and it's assets. And downloading the whole thing without paying of course.

Downloading a single modifed.exe or dll file of a program/game you already have and paid for isn't.

Whatever makes you happy...

 

[P:axMagellanic]

Imagine putting russian malware in your game on purpose. These companies are retarded and deserve the worst lol.

 

[kiphalfton]

I likely have the horsepower to still play the game at a better than 60fps experience, but it's still fucking stupid to do this vs just using Steam's DRM. It's already been cracked, Capcom lost to piracy already, and are just hurting the consumer with this.

True, but at this point I'll try and eke out all I can from my current hardware as new hardware is ridiculously expensive. So for Capcom/etc. to add this kind of stuff after the fact and jerk us around, it's adding salt to the wound.

 

[Jesb]

It's kind of ridiculous for a single player game to have this drm. Doesn't benefit nobody, not even Capcom.

yes, UI are stuck at whatever the internal res is, say if you use performance mode targeting 4K, then you get 1080p UI because internal res is 1080p. You also need to adjust the LOD bias too. I typically only use DLAA which to avoid all of that.

 

[Corporal.Hicks]

So Capcom is showing the middle finger to users who payed the full price for their game. It's an absolutely disgusting practice.

Is the old exe still available somewhere? If so, I will use that. I already bought the game (my screenshot below), and I don't care if someone calls me a pirate for replacing an executable file in a game that I paid for. The same goes for modding. No developer will tell me whether I can modify their games or not.
