they should create a system in which users could vote which anime gets into steam with little to no oversight

what could go wrong

Absolutely nothing

 

[Zeknurn]

Is it possible for someone that owns XCOM 2 to buy me a steam controller for the bundle price?

 

[PranooY]

So Pony Island worth my time? Looks crazy and i like what i see in the trailer. + Its short and cheap.

I recommend it.

valkyria is a great and beautiful game in every sense of the word, go for it

May the bloodline live forever.

Play VC and embrace your Wavy future.

Hell yea! I'm just starting Chapter 9 now in fact.

[PLASTICA-MAN]

Ryse is on sale for -66% and it will end in few hours. Is it a suitable price for this game or should someone wait for sth like -80% or -90% this summer for example (Batman Arkham Knight was -40%, not enough for sure)?

 

[Tizoc]

Glad this got sorted out quickly, removed games are generally worrysome since you never know if they'll be relisted :X

 

[Wok]

It looks like I managed to upgrade to 8 GB of RAM without breaking my computer.

Yay.

In fact, I have 2 identical computers, one of which is currently taking dust, so I stole 4 GB from this one to add to the one that I am using daily.

Next time someone wants to use the dusty computer, I will have to buy some RAM, but I am now confident I can install it.

 

[JaseC]

It looks like I managed to upgrade to 8 GB of RAM without breaking my computer.

Yay.

Great, now you can upgrade to 16GB since it's the new sweet spot.

 

[Wok]

Great, now you can upgrade to 16GB since it's the new sweet spot.

For this, I will upgrade the dusty computer.

In due time. No need to rush.

Okay, I am going to try The Witness with my new setup.

1080/60 on XCOM 2 with these settings so im happy until they patch it

basically dropped MSAA to FXAA (MSAA completely wrecks FPS in this) and DoF to simple, rest is all maxed

it's between 50 and 60

some drops to 40s

but it's just kinda really janky at random

just inconsistent. which when it happens every 10 seconds is more annoying than just a low framerate

That is really the biggest problem, I can live with lower framerates but the fps is constantly jumping all over over the place which is reeeeaaaally annoying

 

[Wok]

Wow, the difference between running The Witness with 4 GB of RAM and 8 GB of RAM is stunning.
For the few tests that I have done, there was no stuttering at all. I suspect the stuttering was due to some assets not fitting totally in the RAM, so that the game would read from the disk instead.

I cannot wait to try Witcher 3 (I had stuttering at the start of each cutscene, which was super annoying, but the game was fine apart from this) or GTA V (I was running the game in the lowest possible settings, but it was running fine) again.
Or just Firewatch.

 

[Tizoc]

Oh man hope that new Rise of TR update can let me run it at 60 FPS. I can't even get that with Low settings @_@

What GPU do you have?
I have an AMD card and I get a lot of microstutter, a lot more now after the latest update.
The FPS is firmly locked at 60 but still get stuttering and it's really annoying.

This is my config:

• Intel Pentium G2020 @ 2.9 GHz
• 1 GB ATI AMD Radeon HD 7770 @ 1 GHz
• 4 GB DDR3 RAM @ 667 MHz

I am running the game in 1080p at 60 FPS with the following settings. The framerate could be higher but I lock it using RTSS.

:/display
vsync false

:/render/low
render_width 1920
render_height 1080
dynamic_resolution false
fov_vertical 73

I kept the same settings to test the game after my upgrade to 8 GB of RAM.

Hehe, i had my eye on this. But saw you playing and your review yesterday, which pushed me into getting this game today.

 

[kagamin]

Awesome! More people can buy it now, that's a good thing.

good morning to you too steam

Hahaha, wooooow that's super dumb XD

Kaldaien, the one who made Zestiria 60fps fix, just released his first version of Symphonia fix. No 60fps fix yet though, only borderless and stuttering fix. But here's hoping he'll also implement that.

With really impressive animation system.

So after the first mission where you have more direct control not only did my band of kooky red shirts survive but they completed the mission flawlessly.

Plus do like the new results and stats screen. Don't think 80% successful shot percentage is happening again anytime soon.

Just look at how random this randomly generated bunch look. Going to miss you when you all die eventually.

 

[Arthea]

I'm not ready for any sale, unless it will be bad, then I was born ready.
Does it start today or something?

From the 05.02 to the 12.02. apparently.

thanks, Hektor

Well I'm in the process of creating the cast of Street Fighter II in the game so we'll see how they fair.

you are doing it wrong, you should go with Ryu, Kratos, Cloud and Sephy, or change Cloud with Bayo - instant win

Have you ever heard of the unreleased Street Fighter 2 character named Geralt?

I'd only get him killed. Saying that when I played a bit of his only game the other day I was getting him killed in that too. Bloody pack of Drowners blindsided me.

Sweet! Once everything gets fixed I'll probably pick it up again. I'll wait until then though.

What kind of lightweight dies to drowners?!

Also why aren't you online on Steam more often? I feel it would be far more effective to witcher-shame you directly on Steam than it is here on GAF.

 

[Uzzy]

Well I'm in the process of creating the cast of Street Fighter II in the game so we'll see how they fair.

Getting Chunners killed will be a bannable offence.

My girlfriend asked if I'd create her for XCOM2. That's some good pressure.

 

[kagamin]

Made it to chapter 10 in VC after cleaning up Ch 9's battle and a new skirmish as well, making good progress and I'll continue tomorrow.

 

[Arthea]

What do you think this is? Smash Bros?

well, if you refuse to go with guys that can eradicate hordes of enemies in seconds and go with randoms instead, you already lost the earth and have nobody to blame.
To be fair, Kratos may turn on your other squad members right off the bat, but not that he has any chance succeeding with this bunch.


I'm so stuck in RPG limbo for the time being, I can as well be consultant on how to save the earth in my free time, it's not as good as saving the planet myself, but close enough.

that sounds like a dangerous challenge
