Support NeoGAF

[Shadownet]

So I just downloaded the Full Combat Rebalance Mod directly from CD Projeckt Red website and installed it. Yup, it gave me the same problem where the health bar for enemies didn't show up during fistfights and enemies were invincible.

I might try downloading it from the Nexus website to see if it will have the same problem or not.

I read the notepad document and something stood out. the creator of the mod said that he included something that multiply the health of the enemies to give the game a bit more challenge during mid and late stages of the game. Now I'm only in the early stage, but I'm assuming that something went wrong and that might be why the bug appeared.

The original post that your responded to was in regards to bundles and "deals" of undisclosed origin

Derp'd, sorry.

 

[Chance Hale]

I'd hardly call Rust a sudden surprise hit. I mean yeah, it sold well beyond expectactions, but it's a Garry's game. Good sales were basically guaranteed.

I guess so, it just seemed to really blow up on a massive scale. I'm sure there are better examples

 

[Tizoc]

Has gamersgate sent out the codes/keys for Sherlock Holmes yet?

yep, typo, sorry . I believe the preload is about 35 GB.

Sigh, gonna finish up Fable to save up 10ish GB (or however small it is) and get this sucker started. Sherlock Holmes is like 10ish GB too based on gamersgate so I'll put Mordor's dl on hold while I have SH finish downloading.

and I did pay full price for a game...bought The Vanishing of Ethan Carter at full price this week (forgot about that)

Oh trust me you'll be forgetting a lot of stuff come sales when you go to get a game and then suddenly get the message 'You already own this game'

 

[Parsnip]

I'd rather Swery still patch DP first.

Access Games had nothing to do with the PC (or PS3 DC for that matter) port afaik. PS3 DC was done by Toybox, maybe PC port as well.

Also, he doesn't have the rights to DP (anymore?).
https://twitter.com/Swery65/status/515288134175580160

I'm only guessing, but maybe Rising Star Games holds all the cards now, considering The Director's Cut on both PS3 and PC were published by them. And apparently the PS3 version is crap too and could have really used at least one more patch.

Such a shame all the same.

 

[Chance Hale]

The PS3 version of the DP director's cut is better than the 360 version in some respects, worse in others. Half of the shooting segments run worse while others are much better, and certain scenes like the split perspective chases that ran at 10 FPS in the 360 version run at a steady 30. Is weird!

 

[MattyG]

Well that was weird and terrifying. I was idling some games all day today when, just before I'm about to go to bed, Windows changes the theme to the plain one it does when it says it wants to improve performance. Then I hear this quiet, high pitched squeal from my case, almost like when you slowly let the air out of a balloon with the ends pulled. After a minute it stops and the theme goes back to normal. I couldn't identify what component it was coming from, although it was definitely the GPU/CPU area. What the hell??

Edit: just found this. Not too encouraging. http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1930124/random-crash-heck-happened.html

And now that I think of it, the sound was kind of like coil whine. Only thing is, no games were running. The only things open were steam and Idlemaster.

 

[Miguel81]

So Deadly Premonition is performing well on the PC now. How's the gamepad support?

 

[Kanokare]

I liked the mechanics of it when I went through the tutorial, but being multiplayer competitive only meant it was worthless to me. Maybe if it is bizarrely successful we'll get a single player game based on it eventually.

Not that bad for the hour I played for a multiplayer only game. It's like Left 4 Dead in a way. Hope it plays out well cause it definitely exceeded my expectations and my expectations for the game was pretty low. Maybe because I didn't get my hopes up the game was good

Huh?
Game crashes before I can even start it.
It's not performing at all.

(and I've tried the fixes)

Semi-random question: Does anyone here play Neotokyo? It doesn't look to have bot support (sadly), so I can't really mess with it offline to see how it is, but it seems like the kind of thing I'd be interested in. (Score one for the Discovery Queue. )

I've never played it, but that soundtrack is awesome

 

[corrosivefrost]

This is what blows my mind. Everyone keeps blaming MS due to marketing.. yet so many Steam games sell great with almost none.

PC users are more informed about games than Xbone users.

I had 800 at the end of January this year. I'm at 1843 right now. I do wonder if this rhythm will keep up.

It cannot sustain itself. We are not JaseC.
Though I somehow overtook Rhaknar... never thought that would happen....

Sorry, it was all one question. And thank you for answering!

Maybe this got already mentioned but the Pier Solar page is up

The game will be 15$

WHOA

Didnt know this was coming out on Steam so soon :O

Wishlisted!

I played a few rounds of it. It's like future Counter-Strike CTF (at least the map I played). Very fast TTK with some interesting gadgets like invisibility and heat vision. Seemed like everyone else in the server had been playing it forever in spite of it being relatively new, so I under-perfomed, got frustrated, and quit. Seemed pretty solid, not sure how balanced the classes are though.

Edit: seems it's been around for a while but only recently hit steam, hence the above-average skill level of the players. I imagine if you got some friends involved it would be a lot of fun.

Works fine for me. I initially couldn't start it, but after reinstalling PhysX everything is running smoothly (currently 12 hours in). I'm playing with a 360pad.

 

[Sarcasm]

Who can I buy keys from?
Anybody wanna gift me one tf2 key heh

 

[Shadownet]

This is weird. I can't right click in the Stream thread. I can do it in every other threads. But when I do it here. Nothing pop up. (I was trying to copy and paste)

Thanks for sharing. I'll keep the PhysX part in mind when I get the game, and if I run into any problem. I'm currently using a DS3 in Xinput mode and it shouldn't give me any trouble if your 360 pad is working.

I've been having a problem with this in NeoGAF. It's not just the Steam thread.

I used to play it years ago, was pretty fun. Maybe a bit dated now but had some cool class interactions and I actually really liked it, didn't have enough people unfortunately. Shattered Horizon was another multiplayer shooter I liked but didn't have the population there.

 

[Fireblend]

Well, I just played through The Swapper in one 4-hours sitting. That was pretty good, though I admit there were 3-4 puzzles I had to look up. Still, I feel like a goddamn genius for solving most of them without help. Exactly what I was looking for so thanks to those that recommended it. I think I got most of the story but I'll probably end up looking for other people's take on it as I do have some questions about it.

Spoiler

If the playable character was one of the scavenger's clones, how did it gain consciousness? for example.

To those who played The Fall, how would you guys compare them?

It should be said though that even reinstalling PhysX doesn't guarantee anything...

AFAIK the only proved thing that reduces the possibilities of crashes (and still "decays" over time) is playing as soon as possible after booting up the computer, which is a more polite way to say that restarting actually (and randomly) fixes some problems.

What the hell kinda port is this?

Hmm I think it might be Google Chrome.. Firefox work just fine. But its weird that its only Steam thread.

 

[Bubbavelli]

That ten dollar half life bundle looks mighty tempting but Im afraid it'll just make me sad since half life 3 is never coming out

Speaking of random anomalies, the youtube volume adjustment isn't working(stuck on max). Almost blew out my eardrums.

Half-Life 2 = nausea to me. And FoV adjustments didn't cure anything. ugh....

you wouldn't happen to have youtube me again or the extension that embeds webms, would you? the Webm extension and YTMA have both caused that issue on GAF for me before.

GAF has also been acting strangely for me

the GAF logo has been missing for the past few weeks

I didn't have any problems with 2, but the original Half-Life definitely makes me sick. I couldn't even get past the opening area.

The opposite for me. It's one of the reasons I love the original so much(along with the pacing).

Edit: I was crushed when the Dreamcast port was cancelled back in the day

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

What the hell kinda port is this?

I have no idea.
When I first installed the game it worked for a little while.
Tried to play it again earlier this evening and nope, welcome to crash-city, population: me.

Tried running it in WinXP compatibility and even Win 98/ME...still nothing. Got Durante's fix...nothing. Even re-installed physx.
Guess I'd have to do a full re-install..yeesh.

Thankfully I still have a sealed copy of the 360 version if/when I want to play through DP again.

Even when the game worked the performance was BAD. I was getting like 15-20 fps..it's mind-boggling.

Unrelated but eh.
Did a write-up for RE4. I don't want to call it a review because everyone already knows it's the greatest game. So I wrote some other stuff I really like about the game.

I believe most, if not, all of GAF weren't going to watch that video.

No, it's not out yet. Pewdie just got to play it early.

the game looks good though.

I just really hope that Nostromo DLC becomes available after launch for non pre-orders.

It makes me want Enemy Zero on Steam, so I can play it as an appetizer. Sega has that game hidden somewhere...

 

[Jawmuncher]

Just finished Season 2. Oddly enough while I wasn't liking it at first. By the end I came out liking it more than the season 1 though.
With the first I figured a lot of what was going to happen with the plot. While here (besides a few obvious parts) it did a better job at keeping me wondering what would happen next.
Hard for me to talk a lot about it without having to use spoiler tags though. But it mainly boiled down to there being 2 characters for clementine to care for. Which added a lot to the story over all.
One of the biggest problems I had about Season 1 was that it was all about clementine. So even when choices funnel to where they go, majority of players would put her first.
So it took away from any real dilemma when other options presented themselves. Since this season didn't fall into that I came out enjoying it a lot. So all in all it was a lot better than I was thinking it would be with it's slow start.
If you beat season 1 you should go ahead and grab 2 next time it's on sale.

Looking at the endings i'm surprised just how many there are this time.
Makes me wonder how the opening of Season 3 will be. Will be interesting to see how they work all of these endings into leading to the same story, if they aren't jumping to new characters.


ACTUAL SPOILERS

Spoiler

Did anyone else go solo for the ending? I ended up shooting and still leaving the other character.

 

[JaseC]

Well, that was interesting. I was experiencing green flickering in CS:S/GO and after a bit of searching (while fearing that at least one of my cards was on the fritz) found this thread, in which somebody suggests switching the SLI bridge around; it worked. I would have never thought to give that a shot.

 

[xBladeM6x]

I've been looking for a good high fantasy RPG to play, and I've had Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning this whole time and haven't played it. :l

 

[dot]

Huh, didn't realize Sunrider was getting a free expansion releasing on the 1st. I was about to play it too but i think i'll hold off on it until then...

I see, October 7.
Well, Sega is pushing this game hard by using pewpew...I'm not sure this is a good thing.
I hope the game is good and not three hours long.

How is it not a good thing? He has the most subscribers on youtube. Just because you don't like him doesn't mean this is a bad thing. It will help promote the game.
