I was doing amazing this run

was gonna asault my first alien base, after playing this run all day, many hours

decided to stall a bit cause wanted to upgrade armor

random target shows up

go to it

2 codex enemies

take care of the first one

but

sniper misses shot. destroys intel. now mission is useless

but also

retaliation with pistol ability thing from my sniper shoots one. It clones itself

it kills my entire squad

my entire 5 people squad

the same from the beggining of the game

now im pressed to attack the alien base

all I have is rookies

the run is completely ruined

every single mission until this was either flawless or perfect

I sincerely feel like crying. Im not a stable enough person at this point in life to play this game. Fuck everything off this piece of shit earth

don't buy the game. I want to cut my own dick off
Maybe just don't play that mode?

Use the option to disable automatic windows update, stick with manually downloading/installing them after DDU is used.

Apparently they used DDU and when it booted back up it had reset the password from the PIN password so you can't get back into windows :x

in reference to Trails in the Sky 3rd Chapter

XSEED have put a lot of work in all their Falcom PC releases.
I think I'd have liked Ys VI way less without the warp feature integrated by them. The catastrophe mode was also nice.
Such improvements are present in all of their releases so far. With Trails in the Sky they even integrated PSP exclusive content back into the PC release.

Happy birthday, Pupo! If it's any consolation, I plan to do an anonymous mystery giveaway of DLC to a game nobody wants for my birthday. Might make it into a Trivia giveaway. :D

Anonymous trivia, at least make it fact and not personal. I've seen some impossible ones out there.


E: Happy birthday pupo, and
a belated to
Tizoc.
 
that Trails thread is filled with whining and bitching from some of the most entitled man children ive seen in a while. makes me disappointed how little they care about the people behind the game or the fact we're getting it at all

im going to sleep.Goodnight

Got my Moving Hazard Key after about 5 hours. It says it's for beta testing so it might not last?

Steam's backend generates Developer Comp, Beta Testing and Store/Retail Key subs automagically when an app is uploaded. The e-mail PAX players received says that the key entitles players to the final version of the game.

Just got an email from Amazon with a code for the pre-order bonus for Hitman, the gift that keeps on giving

Promotion details:
The Amazon Video Games team thanks you for purchasing "Hitman". Your purchase has qualified you for the bonus offer.

Use the code above to access the Requiem Blood Money Pack, which includes exclusive in-game items, including: Requiem Legacy Suit, Blood Money Shirt, Tie, Gloves, and Silenced ICA-19 Chrome White Rubber Duck Explosive.
 
Been playing through Black Ops III the last couple days ⁽ᵒᶰ ᵐʸ ᶰᵉʷᶫʸ ᵃᶜᑫᵘᶦʳᵉᵈ ᴾˢ⁴, ᵖᶫᵉᵃˢᵉ ᵘᶰᵈᵉʳˢᵗᵃᶰᵈ⋅⁾ and I don't think I like it, the story is boring, and the gameplay is repetitive, and multiplayer has just gone to a MOBA/F2P Cod Point™ hell that I don't want to sink any time into. Glad I didn't pick this up around launch for PC because I know I would have regretted it.
 
Nah, "for beta testing" is just default name asigned by Stem to press/beta keys (giving access before release)

I suspected it was but thanks for the conformation!
 
The $375 Rise of the Tomb Raider PC - PC vs Xbox - Rise of the Tomb Raider Graphics Comparison
I am very surprised how the Potato Masher managed to trump the Xbox version with RotTR of all games.

- on Xbox: shaky 30fps, 1080p ingame, 1440x1080 during cutscenes
- AMD TressFX on Xbox (likely) and Nvidia PureHair on PC look identical
- on PM: 1080p@30fps, very high settings, apart texture quality on high
- similar visuals to Xbox besides HBAO+, more tessellation, sun-soft shadows, very stable 30fps
- impossible to get 60fps@1080p at very low settings, at 900p 60fps possible on low settings apart cutscenes
- 60fps with high settings at 720p very possible, difficult to tell apart high settings from very high ones
- 1440p@30fps with medium settings stable, 4K unplayable

For such a visually impressive game like RotTR to have a good showing on the Potato Masher surprised me when I think of the other recent games it struggled at.
I do have to say that even with my fairly powerful PC, attaining a stable 60fps throughout all areas was very inconsistent. Maybe the Xbox was primary focus during dev and LODs and whatnot didn't get optimized enough for a consistent 60fps experience on PC. I didn't mind it much though since pegging a few settings a notch down solved my issues.

I'm curious if DX12 would make an even bigger difference, that is if the 760 has DX12 support?

Got my Hitman bonus codes too. Still haven't redeemed any of them yet though. Still not sure if I want the game right now or not.

It's really disappointing to see this in any respect. It's a shame there's not as many grey names as there were for Bayonetta 2, for example. Some of those guys definitely need some time away to cool their heads.

2 out of 3 Hitman codes after almost an hour since the time stamp on the second one. Come on Amazon, the suit was the one thing I really wanted and that's the one I'm missing.

How is this done? I have a GTX 780. Is it in GeForce Experience? Because the game isn't listed on there.



You should have received 3 codes in 3 different emails?

Pre-Order bonus seems screwy. I only got two, was missing the suit. Hit up Amazon chat, and they said my order doesn't show that it has the promo attached so they can't send the missing code and have to have the promotions team contact me within 48 hours.
