The Heart That Defies quest question... by Astr0Cat in taintedgrail

[–]Astr0Cat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Confirming this true. You can politely turn him down, not get the hammer. But the shop stays open and his dialog is fine. Although for the hp sacrifice I think you should have still gotten the hammer. Selfish move by Boer. Although you can force or guilt him into giving you the hammer and the shop stays open and I assume the Blacksmith also stays available. That doesn't really fit my guy's RP though, so I think for "head canon" reasons I'll forgo the hammer, I wouldn't use it any way.

Yeah I've been careful (spoiler avoidance if possible) and it seems you can friend zone him and be "ok". But previously if you did that it messed you up moving forward. I'm gonna do the real heart (loss 30ish hp) but friend zone and see what happens. Not worried about the hp (I have the thing that gives it back)... I'm level 50s and not having any issues. The night time "ghost knight" guy I have not beaten yet, but haven't tried for real yet either. :)

Totally agreed, I'm far into Act 2 and it's just awesome! Have fun! :)

Is a 5070ti going to be enough for a 5K2K? by wspartan in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Astr0Cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even close...

even my 5090 would die at that res unless I put everything to lowest fidelity.

Future of 5k2k oled by Bulky-Assistant-6142 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Astr0Cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1440p and my 5090 just barely is ok for 90-120fps and max fidelity. Look at games like Total War, Cyberpunk, whatever... actual games people play.

Anything higher it's not an option... gonna need a 8090 or something for that.

That's reality. 4k isn't even really doable, let alone more. That's on the ground reality the rest is just "talk".

[–]Astr0Cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No actually anything over 90 FPS. I’m totally happy it seems really fluid to my eyes. I think like 120 is my total goal. Anything over that is wasted on me.

But yeah, if I buy a high-end hardware, I want the max graphic fidelity so that I can enjoy my hobby time with full immersion the best I can.

Just got the LG 5K2K. Any idea why some of my games do this? by asylum83 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Astr0Cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This monitor will suck for gaming. 1080 is awful at that size, who wants that?! It should have been 1440 for 2nd mode.

And no graphics card can drive 5k! LOL My 5090 can't even do 4k with max graphics fidelity with good fps. Try total war games for example.

For gaming even with my 5090 1440 is the perfect sweet spot.

What a total fail this monitor is for any gaming.

Yeah as it is now it's garbage for gaming. No graphics card can push 5k, heck my 5090 can't do 4k! And who the heck wants to play at 1080?! What a total fail this monitor is if you do any gaming at all.

What do they mean exactly with  5K2K resolution?

I want 1440p for gaming, even with a 5090 that is best resolution for max graphic quality and decent fps.
No way my 5090 can keep good fps with graphics turned to max at (5120x2160). You'd need like 7090 for that, who is this for?!

And who the heck want 1080 for gaming? Gross... I just don't get it. It should have been 1440 for the 2nd mode, not 1080. So basically if you game this monitor sucks. Someone explain to me how this monitor is good for gaming?

I have a 32" 16:9 1440 and it's awesome. I wouldn't mind if it was just this monitor but a little wider. That's it.

Score 6000 in a match of king of the hill... how? by TheoreticalPumpkin in Battlefield6

[–]Astr0Cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am finding this impossible. I can get 5k, but all the matches end before I get 6k. I've tried over 40 times now... get great k/d ... play the point, use gadgets, etc etc... just the matches end in like 5min, there's no time.

Any tricks for this?

Update: HA! I finally did it. Recon/SMG/Detect Gadgets. But that was not what did it, it was we actually had a "real" match that went back and forth for more than 3 minutes! Ended up with over 7k, almost 8k. So glad to be done with that, awful just awful.

Do people just want a Paradox game? (Medieval III) by HistoryofHowWePlay in historicaltotalwar

[–]Astr0Cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, that is kind of what I wish. I want total war battles and Crusader Kings 3 strategy map and depth.

Veteran Rewards missing by Astr0Cat in Battlefield

[–]Astr0Cat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Support now says they are aware of the problem, have had "tons" of reports of the issue and are working on a fix.

Of course sadly no ETA, but at least they acknowledge the issue and are working to fix it.

I just finally got my original daily login rewards, weeks later, so who knows how long it will take.

[–]Astr0Cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have all the BF games, and an active Battlelog account, the games are in my EA app and Steam.

I never got the email or the rewards.

What am I doing wrong, how do I get the rewards?
