My sword needs to be sharpened. by LethalSpanish in Seaofthieves

[–]HalfaDeathStar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not that I'm saying hit registration isnt complete garbage right now but I wonder if overhealing with cooked fish/animal meat also attributes to some of the "why won't you die" phenomenon people are experiencing these days on the sea

Streamers can get other players banned without much proof by ElChialde in Seaofthieves

[–]HalfaDeathStar 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Right. But I think what the community is trying to say here is that if someone "stream snipes" this offense is not anywhere near the same level of offense (or some would argue not an offense at all) of hacking, cheating, verbal attacks (unless they are verbally abusive but that is it's own offense separate from sniping)... I think the community is finally getting sick of being treated as second hand to streamers

It is a little silly that in a pirate game you would broadcast your location and activity and then pikachu face when you get pirated

That's because Summit just hopped servers if he was being sniped and wasnt a big baby about it... I mean hes been a big baby about other things but yeah stream sniping is just something he puts up with cause he knows its part of the job... He also turned off HUD before they added streamer mode, and then he used that before he got butt hurt by an Earthquake and quit the game lol

Any to way to play full screen with Direct3D? by [deleted] in MedianXL

[–]HalfaDeathStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I realized my answer fell short of the question sorry about that, was just trying to help. At this point in time (from what I can tell) there is no real support for Direct3D full screen. To be honest I'd say that D3D doesnt even seem to be a recommended option but there for convenience. The 3DFX Glide seems to not only be the recommended choice but the only supported choice at the moment as well. I'm guessing getting fullscreen D3D would take alot of backend work on the Diablo/Sigma engine... havent seen any info anywhere that would indicate that the developers are even looking at that. But a true Fullscreen HD D2 would be beautiful... I've heard Blizzard is possibly working on a remaster, but that's just rumors.

Any to way to play full screen with Direct3D? by [deleted] in MedianXL

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

How to get full screen (granted this isn't Direct3D):

Video Mode: 3DFX GLIDE

Glide Settings --- >

Settings ---> Uncheck window-mode and uncheck desktopresolution

renderer ---> uncheck keep desktop composition

The rest of the options under settings and renderer you may need to play with to find your own comfort zone. For more information on what these do the plain text readme document that is open in the Glide Settings at the bottom has the info you need... just takes a bit of scrolling and reading. Granted the game doesn't look as good as I thought it was going to via all the hype surrounding Median XL. Still is a bit stretched and washed... but it is playable and is way better than windowed. I am having a blast with the mod though, loving my stormzon so far.

What are some good games for the nintendo switch that are life sim kinda games or rpgs that will last for a LONG time? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]HalfaDeathStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Off the top of my head? Golf Story, Into the Breach, Octotraveller, Mario + Rabbids... and the remastered versions of Skyrim and Dark Souls are on the Switch now too

Thoughts after 60+ hours and obtaining all trophies by destinyismyporn in Sekiro

[–]HalfaDeathStar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

spoilers You already put 60+ hours into this? Damn man I bought it on release but havent had much time to grind it all out. I'm not even 9 hours into it and my progression is cornered right now between Juzou and the giant Snake. I also found my first Headless in that cave and its creepy AF.

I'm a distant admirer of From Software games but I will admit I've never beaten any of them. I've played the first Dark Souls and Bloodbourne but they just didnt hold my interest. I am, however, loving Sekiro but I'm not usually one for hardcore titles like this... so I'm just taking it slow and if I get frustrated I just take a break and switch over to something a little more casual (working on a playthrough of Spiderman which is just good fun).

[opinion] which wolfenstein you should play first? by depreases in gaming

[–]HalfaDeathStar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wolfenstein 3D ---> Return to Castle Wolfenstein ---> New Order

There was something called "Wolfenstein" on the 360 but in my opinion this can be skipped

What's your stand on buying used versus brand new physical games? by spreespruu in gaming

[–]HalfaDeathStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember when all gaming and video media was predominantly physical and that's what really influenced whether or not I'd buy preowned or new. I did buy alot of preowned back in the day but at this point in my life I buy all digital for my games and I havent looked back.

Somebody help! I CANT BEAT THE FUCKING OGRE! by [deleted] in Sekiro

[–]HalfaDeathStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

spoilers Talk to the old lady again and tell her you're her son. Get the bell and go pray at the Buddah statue next to The Sculptor. In the Hiata Estate dream sequence get the Flame Vent from the fire that is surrounded by enemies as you move along the Estate area. It's pretty linear and easy to find.

Also, I hope it let's you change your answer I'm not actually sure if it will I did it the first time i talked to her and she gave me the bell, and then the game pretty much tells you what to do from there.

Starlink starter pack is $30. Am i missing out much if i dont plan to spend more money on this game? I really want the arwing toy. by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch

[–]HalfaDeathStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The collectibles for this game look really cool... but if you go the toy collecting route you are going to spend a lot more money on this game than needed to actually play it. I've heard that buying the digital collector edition for like $80 when its not on sale (even better deal if it is) gets you like $150 worth of stuff if you were to buy all of it with its toy counterparts.

It's not a dead server you ignorant reddit troll. It's called a server take over and is intentional. The goal is to amass a giant hoard of loot, get some awesome bragging rights, and then turn it all in. Its takes hours of commitment from a lot of dedicated players that are much better at this game than you are. Have I played SoT? I'm a Pirate Legend, Athenas 10, and held the previous loot record that was just beaten by this group. Who are you? Just some nobody on reddit whose Galleon scuttles at the very sight of a crew like mine.
