Well Firaxis still know how to make an awesome intro. And I'm start to warm to Beyond Earth's ADVISER's cheery demeanor.

Come on, those are the best GPU boxes ever.

Hahaha yeah I really worded that like a chump. Definitely agree that out of the appalling selection available you knew which was THE card to get when you saw a 3dfx box in the shop. At the time Voodoo card cropped up the packaging made my Matrox workstation card look like something designed by Fisher Price.

 

[Kiru]

This reminded me of the old days when you could buy a graphics card that had either Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) or Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) connectors.

I knew a lot of people who didn't know or understand the difference between these and ended up frying a lot of cards and motherboards.

My last PC had PCI & AGP in one Mainboard just because of that stuff. I had to use a AGP card and wanted be to open for a PCI one in the future.

 

[Braag]

I enjoyed Killer is Dead despite the super trippy storyline and kinda uncomfortable gigolo side missions (which you have to do to get different ranged weapons).
But i loved the visual style and the combat is a lot of fun.
Totally worth it for 8€

How's the forest??

I haven't played in a few months, but it is a very cool concept.

I have been monitoring the updates, and Endnight Games has been frequently pushing large updated.

 

[Stallion Free]

How's the no enemy mode in The Forest? My GF is interested in playing it cannibal free but if that isn't polished enough yet I'll wait.

 

[fallout]

Everybody buy the game. It is good.

Yeah, Gunpoint is a fantastic game. Short, but well-paced.

GAF please help me. I want to play GTA IV EFLC but I can't start it because of GFWL. I log in with my account, put in the serial code, click on "ok", I get an error message like "can't log in" or something like that and then the game chrashes...

This thread moves way too fast. Anyone? Should I make a new thread for this issue?

 

[Htown]

so Killer is Dead is worth playing?

 

[KePoW]

Does Steam not have an exact countdown of how long a game will unlock anymore?

Like on the store page for Civilization Beyond Earth, it does not show a countdown.

any time anybody has login problems with GFWL, I always say to go to Xbox.com, login there, and make sure there isn't some TOS stuff you need to agree to.

Because I've had that problem on more than one occasion.

 

[Alavard]

Does Steam not have an exact countdown of how long a game will unlock anymore?

Like on the store page for Civilization Beyond Earth, it does not show a countdown.

Plenty of other games still have countdowns on the Store (first one I checked, The Witcher 3 still does). It could simply be that Firaxis/2K never provided a time, just a date to Steam.

 

[poopninjamvc3mk]

Killer is Dead secret best Suda 51 game since NMH1-2 but definitely not for everyone. I should probably double dip so I can play it in 60fps/vsync'd so I don't have to deal with framedrops/crazy screentearing of the PS3 version.

Ok got it, I did not check other games yet so thanks for the info.

The weird thing is CBE is coming out tomorrow sometime, so I don't know why there isn't a countdown

I think it should run fine on high.

Btw, the bundle is around 11$ in Russia (no region lock).

Gunpoint is -80%, only 1,40€.

Highly recommended. Played it last week and it was highly enjoyable.

This one picture has more colour and terrain variation than I've seen in Civ for ages. And I've only just started playing!

Oh you mean like a market or trading lock right? I got caught out with that the other week when I installed that Windows 10 preview. Thankfully still have another device still authorised.

I felt the same after playing Wonderful 101. I'm not going to say it has a bit of a learning curve but there were options-a-pleanty to play the game but some reviews gave the control system a bashing. I supose it speak to people who would also have difficulty with different or fast reactionary systems but then shouldn't reviews try to cover all bases? Have a point of view from someone not familiar with that kind of game and someone where it's there bread and butter. The Idiot and the Expert System™ of parallel reviewing (yes that's my trade mark on the idea!).

 

[Strider]

So upon launching Beyond Earth there is no option for me to raise the game to 1920 x 1080... The best I can get is 1280 x 1024. I read a little bit on the steam forums and seems it's an issue for those with 120/144 hz monitors.

For those who may have pre-ordered AC Unity on Steam a 680 is required, apparently.
It's official.

A 680 as minimum specs ? I was not expecting that to happen to early.
Going to be interesting to see how it performs.

Reports of that in the OT, too. All you guys can do is wait for them to patch that. Shouldn't be that difficult I presume.

FUCK. im around mission 6 already and didn't know there was a 60fps guide. This will make it way better now. Game is great btw guys, get it if you can at that price.

Great to see this, can't wait to see your impressions later on. Have fun! I'll be checking every now and then for some GAFfer's impressions on the game since I'm really curious regarding the theme.

Yeah as I posted in the OT my 120hz monitor only show up 1680x1050@109hz as the maximum resolution and that's after a cold boot as well. 2560x1440@60hz monitor shows up at 59hz but does also show DSR available resolutions.

Great to see this, can't wait to see your impressions later on. Have fun! I'll be checking every now and then for some GAFfer's impressions on the game since I'm really curious regarding the theme.

I get the feeling impression from me might take some time. It's familiar straight away like Civ I've know for years so know what and where stuff is but the new Affinity system and Quests sounds like it adds a different spin on some of the bits added into V from ABNW. I started it up on lowest settings and got some silly high framerates so like V should work on a nice broad range of hardware too.
