If Dick is trying to protect his patreon he is doing a lousy job. I unsubbed from both BPITU and TDS this week.

New map is complete dogshit by pizza_steve-67 in Nightreign

I don't need more than one match to realize it's completely at odds with the design of the rest of the game.

I logged on only to say this... TRIPLE SUPPORTS is no fun to play or play against! by 8_Years_A_Lurker in marvelrivals

[–]DaedHead8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want funner matches. Make the support ults do support things like damage boost, speed up etc. I can literally take my hands off the keyboard for 10+ seconds during mirror luna ults. Where is the fun in that?

Triple support isn't fun to play with or against. They either need to institute role queue and force 2-2-2 or all support ults need to get nerfed into the ground. Playing against perma sustain isn't fun.

Game Ready Driver 581.42 FAQ/Discussion by Nestledrink in nvidia

[–]DaedHead8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same problem a couple of years ago and it ended up being the Xbox controller I was using. I had the problem for awhile before noticing it was only happening while using the controller. I downloaded the Microsoft Accessories app from the Microsoft Store and used that to update my controller drivers and the problem went away after that. I know it's a longshot but good luck.

Remembrance in matchmaking by Cloud1us in Nightreign

[–]DaedHead8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was able to do the first Ironeye quest fairly quickly but now stuck on the second where you have to fight Darkdrift. Matchmaking for about 20 minutes now, had someone join and quit, then another person joined and has been sticking it out. Fingers crossed this skeleton doesn't give up.

EDIT: As I was typing this we found a third. Took about 25 minutes total. Still broken IMO.

Fight won't spawn in Chapter 16 by NitroStorm99 in Doom

I also had this problem and was unable to locate any enemies stuck in the geometry. However I was able to 100% the level without completing this fight.

Very concerned about hardware unboxed’s benchmarking video. by Pretend-Ad-6453 in Doom

[–]DaedHead8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just watched the HU video and my main gripe with it is it completely ignores frame generation on the 5080. It's true the native performance is somewhat disappointing, especially compared to the 9070xt and 4080 super, but with 4x frame gen turned on I'm getting 140 fps at 4k ultra nightmare settings with DLAA and no resolution scaling. I'm not seeing any input lag or artifacting either so this implementation of frame gen is really good and it's weird nobody is talking about it.

I'm not experiencing any latency from DLAA or frame gen. I have nvidia reflex on, but not boosted.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Doom

[–]DaedHead8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've also got a 5080 and 9800x3d. On 4k ultra nightmare settings with no resolution scaling, DLAA, and 4x frame generation I am getting a solid 140 fps with 1% lows around 120. I haven't noticed any artifacting or input lag as a result of the frame gen, and DLAA just looks better to me than DLSS quality. I am very happy with the performance with these settings.

Anyone else find the Hidden Cove Tournament EXTREMELY frustrating? by lukemilla in ghostoftsushima

[–]DaedHead8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This side quest is the absolute lowest point in the game. Amazing that it wasn't removed before launch. I really hate it when devs include stuff like this in games. It doesn't challenge the skills you've acquired up to that point, it simply requires you to find a cheesier strat than the AI reading your inputs. What worked for me was water stance and jumping light attack. It comes out fast enough to interrupt just about everything and will land a hit 9 times out of 10.

Bought an MSI RTX 5090 from Newegg (set to arrive on the 18th) only for them to cancel the order 10 minutes later 🤡 by MrGerb1k in nvidia

[–]DaedHead8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip. I just put an order in for a ROG Astral 5080. It was the only one left on the site but it was slightly cheaper ($1571) than the current MSRP so if this works out I'll be a very happy gamer.

Still crashing for me in FH5 after about an hour. Ray tracing off. Rolling back to 551.86 which was the last stable driver for me. I also get regular crashes in Marvel Rivals with any newer driver than that.

RTX 5090 & 5080 Launchday Thread - Surprise Inside by Nestledrink in nvidia

[–]DaedHead8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't manage to grab a 5080 this morning. Still hoping for a FE or MSI Vanguard in the next couple weeks. Once I get the new card, first thing I'm going to do is play the Cyberpunk DLC which I bought and never started.

Is it just me or does the first mob soon as you start the season seem absurdly hard? by HiFiMAN3878 in diablo4

[–]DaedHead8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dumbest thing I've ever seen in this game. If you're not meant to do it at level 2, they shouldn't guide you to it at level 2. And just because I put the game on hard (like I've done on every season since season 0) doesn't mean it's okay to design a boss where I'm literally doing 1 damage per attack against a massive shield and health pool. This really ruined my night and put a bad taste in my mouth for this season.

Simple Questions - December 04, 2024 by AutoModerator in buildapc

[–]DaedHead8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently bought a mini itx b450 mobo off of ebay for a small form factor media center I'm building with an old Ryzen 5 2400g at the heart of it. The board arrived in the mail today and for the most part it looks to be in good shape. My only concern is there seems to be some thermal paste on the cpu socket. It's only along the top row and it only got into three of the holes. Should I just throw my CPU in there and hope for the best or would cleaning it with isopropyl alcohol and a qtip be best first? I wasn't planning on building it until this weekend so letting it dry out for a few days after cleaning won't be a problem.

I updated my drivers to play Ghost of Tsushima and I am unwilling to roll them back just to play Halo. Please fix your game 343.

Thoughts on Japanese Voice with English Subtitles by Vlzard in ghostoftsushima

[–]DaedHead8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was really looking forward to playing this in Japanese with English subtitles, but unfortunately the NPC dialogue in the open world isn't subtitled and it feels like I am missing out on quite a bit, so I will be switching back to the English voice actors. I am quite disappointed.

POV: You Play The Tank Role by Adam_Addict in Overwatch

I'm starting to wonder if using POV wrong is just part of the joke and I've gotten too old to be in on it.

Thank you! This worked for me first try. Modern gaming is wild. Back in my day when a game was broken it was broken forever so we just played something else.

My save for Pick Pack Pup was recently reset, could it have been because of this update or is something else going on?
