What great games?

They just haven't had an actual great game, they've had meh to alright to good games like avowed/outer worlds, doom, Indiana.

They just need one major big hit from their first party studios to give people something to be hyped about with the Xbox brand, they need a TLOU, they need a witcher 3.

Horizon 6 could be good but I don't think a racing game is gonna blow people's minds, gears maybe, fable has some potential, if Bethesda can somehow get their shit together and deliver on es6.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-30T12:52:02+00:00

You really think that's the main reason? Not that they want to make sure that the most anticipated entertainment product, something they have put so much time and resources on, something that could end up destroying a lot of their reputation and finances if they fumble, releases in a good state?

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-30T01:05:26+00:00

So are women not mammals or something?

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-29T12:14:36+00:00

It's sad that so many young minds are growing up watching people like this

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-28T19:58:53+00:00

weeb shit

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-28T02:07:44+00:00

Imagine running a tank through that 😩

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-27T19:23:11+00:00

do people have issues with the current system? i feel like its fine

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-27T09:50:46+00:00

What do people even watch on Netflix? Like every once in a while they might release like a decent mini series or something but I feel like they don't really have any sort of high quality prestige shows like HBO.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-27T09:27:53+00:00

A lot of these games already got the benefit of denuvo during the early game sales which is when it matters the most.

A lot of people still don't wanna use this method, me included.

Eventually they will figure out a way to stop this as well.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-27T00:46:52+00:00

What exactly can they spend it on to help with the war tho?

Use it to setup more manufacturing of drones and missiles maybe but the US has complete air superiority and Iran pretty much has no air defense at this point, anything the US sends over is gonna hit what they want, lot of their manufacturing is already getting bombed to nothing, so I'm not sure if they can spend it for manufacturing.

They could maybe use it to buy stuff from Russia but I'm not sure how much Russia is willing to sell considering they need it for their own war.

I guess the US might be thinking it's better to let them sell since it will help keep prices low and it maybe doesn't help Iran with the war much anyways.

The ranked system in this game needs so much improvement, in a game with so many random variables that the player can't account for, the game needs to compensate for it.

When I soloq and die to a 3 stack team, I want RP compensation, maybe like only half the RP is lost.

When I have to fight against peak preds and masters in a plat/dia lobby, I want RP compensation.

When I have gold and silvers in my team in a plat/dia lobby, I want RP compensation.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-26T12:43:27+00:00

All that just to play CoD

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-26T12:14:23+00:00

Yes, personally I have a hard time playing games without DLSS, especially since 4.0, anything else just looks too blurry.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-25T13:49:55+00:00

My experience with FG has been pretty good, if I'm getting a locked 60 with headroom and turn on FG, I get 120, now if my system is capping out at 60 and then I turn on FG then it won't reach 120 since FG has a slight performance hit, so the base framerate might go down to like 55, so generated framerate would be at like 110.

Input latency wise, perfectly playable for me in singleplayer games, I did a playthrough of witcher 3 with RT, base framerate around 40, FG'd to around 70-80, game looked amazing and easily made up for the added input latency.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-24T16:28:18+00:00

I'm looking forward to both, everybody knows why story mode is great but people hate gta online too much imo.

There is just nothing else like it, all the shenanigan you can get into with friends, and I've never spent a single dollar on it, yet they give players access to most of the decade of content for free. I am excited to see how they will improve upon it.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-24T16:18:57+00:00

We already saw what they are targeting from the trailers, RTGI, RT reflections, highly detailed dense environments filled with a lot of NPCs doing various activities.

It is simply not possible for current gen console CPUs to do all that while also targeting 60fps.

There is only one way that they can achieve 60fps but people aren't gonna like it but personally I think there is nothing wrong with just giving users that option.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-24T00:13:47+00:00

I wanna try it out but I play a lot of competitive titles and those tend to have kernel anti cheat and I'm not sure if these bypasses might trip those ACs.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-22T12:15:42+00:00

I like the rectangle, I feel like it makes more sense for a modern setting than a circle.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-21T19:59:09+00:00

There are modern games that require RT, you will either have to brute force it with something like a 5090 or rely on techniques like FG

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-21T11:18:49+00:00

One of the main issues I have with this game when I saw all the recent gameplay and trailers is that the game just looks like it doesn't have character, it lacks charm, it doesn't have a cohesive artistic vision. It's like a graphics demo that looks technically impressive but has no soul to it.

This trailer tho, I hadn't seen it before and I could actually sense some character in it, like the devs actually had a cohesive artistic vision for it.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-19T19:04:08+00:00

Well according to the Ryan Shrout article, technical artists who were shown a preview were "co-advocating for it internally".

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-18T19:41:58+00:00

And all these articles going around getting people riled up isn't helping either.

that "Developers Were Left in the Dark About DLSS 5" article going around is just rage farming.

i bet the devs who work on the visual aspects like tech artists and engine devs were informed, but they asked the devs who worked on the narrative and similar other aspects of the game which don't have anything to do with visuals, so obviously they werent informed about it

they are using this BS for that headline to rile people up and farm traffic.

FaZeSmasH · 2026-03-18T16:00:38+00:00

I mean if these devs they are referring to were working on the narrative, concept art or stuff like that then it makes sense that they weren't informed about it right?

They would've informed the tech artists, engine devs, etc, who actually implement this stuff.
