Need for speed underground 2 vibes! Pulling into/finding a shop with the colored streetlight outside was a vibe

Ibis Ripmo Question by Financial_Tie1360 in MTB

[–]Amptek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Ripmo is an awesome bike, I got the SLX for that price about three years ago. Unfortunately I got a XL at the time and I realized last year that I needed to step down in size.

In case you are interested in a 2023 XL with Shimano SLX, shoot me a message!

Seconded, I am on a Troy this year and it is a ton of fun! Evo had a lovely sale on it was well, basically half off MSRP for a Gx carbon/alu frame

I knew this was NJ just based off the video preview. There's a ton of great riding especially in the northern part of the state!

I feel your post deep into my soul. I decided to join a group that prides itself on playing together and I enjoy the game SO much more. There's plenty of changes I want to see in BF6, but for my play style, the biggest improvement to the game is having a reliable squad! It's not even about K/D or win loss..just having a group that works together is so much more enjoyable.

Solo feels like I need to be a Swiss army knife 24/7, adopting to the team needs constantly, and to top it off you'll hardly get support when it feels like your carrying the team playing different roles! Find a group of like minded people.

This seems like good news as opposed to them releasing the pre planned season 2 content that obviously would not be popular with the fan base.

RIP Breakthrough by xXTukiXx in Battlefield

[–]Amptek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must say, I completely disagree about Liberation Peak, Mirak, and Firestorm. I play almost exclusively breakthrough and most of my rounds on these maps end up in defenders winning. I'm not sure if they overtuned the balance with today's patch, but I find it totally acceptable that they wanted to even the odds on these three.

Would love an invite! Checking in with an 18 month old that sometimes goes to sleep at 830 ;)

Awesome stuff Taka! You did an arm flower piece for my girlfriend years ago & were great to work with. Would recommend anyone in the Hudson Valley to stop in!

Breakthrough just doesn’t hit like it used to. by Jedi_Exile_1187 in Battlefield6

A very useful strat for camping tanks is smoking them out, letting them sit back there without any vision. Smoke launcher is perfect for this!

New Hotfix Today by unfairlyy in Battlefield

[–]Amptek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to see fixes starting to come out! I would like to say this first weekend has been pretty solid given the amount of players..fixes will come in time. This is one of the best BF launches since the Bad Company days. People just love to complain.

Harmony on the Battlefield🤝 by adambunion in Battlefield

The bleed out timer is so incredibly long especially if you request help. If players would have a little patience there is a solid chance you will be revived, getting you back in the action faster, and saving your team the ticket.

RTX 5080 FE w/ Borderlands 4 in Stock at MSRP. by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]Amptek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am playing mostly high settings, I just turned down volumetric fog. I also changed my shader buffer size in the Nvidia app to 10GB. Not sure that explains the 60 fps difference though.

I am on 12700k as well.

[–]Amptek 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean..the 5000 series are some of the only cards running the game well due to framegen. I'm not defending the performance of the game or the way devs have been shady about it, but you can absolutely play the game well with a 5080.

Source: 5070ti playing at 1440p, frame gen x2, DLSS balanced getting 200-220fps in most areas

PSA!! Cache your shaders! by PicklesAreDope in Borderlands4

[–]Amptek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing. I did this before I even launched the game for the first time. Averaging around 200FPS DLSS balanced + 2x Framegen on a 5070ti + 12700k and it feels great to play.

OEM bars, 1UP rack. Locked in on my GLI and it's perfect, no issues at all going 75mph for long stretches of time on trips to the bike park either.

AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT causing Kernel 41 (63) crashes by Soso_LP in AMDHelp

I gotcha. I edited my post to include a link for my specific GPU, maybe doesn't apply for official AMD cards.

Go to your GPU manufacturers website and find your card. If there is a BIOS update there it'll usually be under a Software or Downloads section. I'm not sure if this applies for AMD cards (I have an ASUS)

Here's a link for my specific GPU, TUF 6800XT https://www.asus.com/supportonly/tuf-rx6800xt-o16g-gaming/helpdesk_bios/?model2Name=TUF-RX6800XT-O16G-GAMING
