Why don't more people hire the Polish company, QLOC. They do AMAZING PC ports. I would say they are the best in the business. Every game they touch runs like melted butter.

There are companies out there who do wonderful jobs porting games.

I mean Durante is awesome for what one man can do, but QLOC is a team of people and put out ports on another level than everyone else does.

These companies have professional resources out there that they can use. I don't know why they don't utilize them.

Capcom (as much as we shit on them) does great PC ports (at least these days)

Finally sat down to play some Dark Souls: PtD on PC but found that my standard, wired 360 controller's left analog stick doesn't work. It works for EVERY other game I have, but not Dark Souls.

Anyone else have that problem? How did you fix it?

No idea if this helps in any way, but the menus only work with the D-pad.

GOTG for me, it's not even that hard. We're just too careless.
Click to expand...
Yup. This is a game that's to be played slowly and with caution. I love that.

Played about two hours today. Liking it so far, better then what i've played from it a year ago.

But it's got to wait, since Zelda finally arrived in the mail, after two months of waiting.
Weird thing. Thirty euro's for a 3DS game sounds like a bargain, ten for a PC game on the other hand... Heh.

You probably have a conflicting controller profile.
Go to Device Manager and find the controller profile.
If you google what im talking about it'll make more sense.

Didn't they hire QLOC for the DmC port? Their MT Framework engine is best on PC, so those games run silky smooth, now they only need to port over Dragon's Dogma DA.

Ah I remember my first time playing Dark Souls. Good times.

A perpetual state of being kicked in the balls with an iron boot. I had to resort to luring skeletons off cliffs to fucking kill the bastards and even executing a ridiculous play-style I like to call a "naked run", were I un-equip all my heavy armor that encumbers me and make a made dash past enemies to go recover my green effluence, possibly even make it to a bonfire. As I run this naked marathon, I'm flogged by skeletons like a mock-Jesus roaming the streets in some Catholic ritual reenacting the crucifixion. I then start to wonder if I just suck or if this game is just fucking hard as they say it is. I then decide I should do some wiki-research and then stumble across many sources saying this area is a high-level area and to go to the Undead Burg first. God dammit.

That's how Vsync works? You usually use triple buffering to alleviate that.
Click to expand...

I'm pretty sure I've used vsync for no screen tearing with variable frame rates that aren't only 30 or 60 with no in-between for other games. I always turn vsync on, and never have this game's issue of not allowing in-between.. I think there's a quirk with this game's implementation that makes triple-buffering not available unless using some third party app. I think that's the issue.

Ah cool. I've also heard to use Radeon Pro. I already have it installed for SweetFx for Injustice. Does RadeonPro work for that with an nvidia card?

I'm not a fan of Early Access games, but for the right (low) price I'm in.
Which means that while I passed on Dream, I'll grab Steam Marines.

the devs of Joe Danger and the upcoming No Man's Sky (Hello Games) got hit with the flood, not the Strike Suit Zero devs (Born Ready Games)
