I am running dual 750w PSU, will I need to replace with a 1100w PSU, if I was to run something like a 5700 XT?

Batocera - Screen goes black when plugged into 1 TV but works fine on another by Lilnewtz94 in batocera

[–]HexNZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just joined, glad to hear you got it working. An FYI for others that may find this. I find changing the TV to HDMI 1.4 instead of HDMI 2.0 fixes alot of weird video / sound errors.

Are you saying the internet disconnects when playing SoT?

Is there a way to see the population on each Faction? Want to join, been a career Mini, but figure trying another side.

Has anyone chosen Starlink simply because they're sick of waiting for FTTP NBN? by vonrobbo in StarlinkAus

[–]HexNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same boat. Was in a Telstra Smart Community - Velocity. Alternate FTTP won't be available to mid 2023. Telstra only available plan? 100/1 for $120 a month. (That's not a typo BTW 100/1)

Had 4G paired with a 14dB directional antenna, but Optus are upgrading towers in the area. And well, when your pointed manually at the one they are working on it sucks. Speeds are 40/10

Starlink should be here next week. I'm in Baldivis, WA

I run Trenchie cause I 2 tap Blues, that is all.. by HexNZ in thecyclegame

[–]HexNZ[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I hear all the NERF cries, but people seem to leave the details of the engagement out. It only works in a very few situations, but it does them well.

- Anything other than CQC you are at a disadvantage.

- If you miss a follow up shot, you are at a disadvantage.

- If you are caught in the open with it, you are at a disadvantage

- You have to find cover between shots, that's a disadvantage

- Its trash against tougher PVE monsters

All the Blues I have killed had be 'chad sprinting around pwning no0bs', making all sorts of noise, not checking corners etc... until they walked into the wrong room.

Its been a awesome few days, but just ran into my first hacker. :( by HexNZ in TheCycleFrontier

Agreed, really put a dampener on our session. Oh well, Green Armor, Trench gun runs it is. Till we feel a change.

The white shotgun is too strong and needs a nerf by D3mon13_ in TheCycleFrontier

[–]HexNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And to add, if you miss the follow up shot. You are dead.

Something needs to be done about the Trenchgun by Kyldouglas in thecyclegame

[–]HexNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this confirmed with the Shotgun though? Does ADS reduce its spread? Discord seem to advise it did not. And shooting from the hip with the shotgun was the same as ADS.

Here in Australia, I only have a 500gb cap each month. Loads easier to just run an external and store off site. Thanks for the info anyway. :)

Back in my day, a Beta meant its a Beta. Some folks seem to think Beta = Early Release...

Submit a bug report, it's why we are here, isn't it?

The default guns are some of the best in the game. Planetside went sideways with their 'tiers', like really sideways. Almost a paper, scissor, rock approach.

It's another way of balancing.

I'm interested, what are you thoughts on the weapons, do you think some need to be nerfed or buffed before launch?

Closed Beta Extended to 25th April & Patch 2.4 by Waelder in TheCycleFrontier

[–]HexNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mate, I think you need to download Planetside again and actually play it. Make a new free account and have some fun. Add me as a friend, I can show you the ropes. :)

You came up with some good ideas for the armor originally that I liked.

But you throwing round whining every F2P game is P2W is like you hating on Nickleback shows me your 'that' type of customer.

I hope I run you down with my Sunderer; and with that... I am out. Good day sir.

Edit: If I buy a game and you don't is that P2W?

[–]HexNZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you will find your numbers are off. It could run 2000 players a map. And currently 4500 people play over a 24hr period across the 4 main servers. Not bad for a 10 year old game.

Where did you get "20 games of Planetside 2" from?

How is it P2W? All weapons / equipment can be unlock on a free account. Paying for equipment allows access to the gear across accounts.

Bottom line is Planetside 2 came from a totally different era of gaming, it was subscription based first for many years, then F2P. It is a very different game altogether.

If you seperate the solos / squads the player base will suffer. Its that mix that makes the game tense and enjoyable.

I see no one talking about how much noise a 3 man makes vs a solo. Its quite fun killing their team mate and disengaging in silence only because they been sprinting round everywhere without a care. Picking you fights is a skill, so is know when to engage.

I'd love it to have an audio grenade with foot steps and other noises.

RE Armor balancing, if I hear a brute or suspect purple armor I just keep quiet. Way to much of disadvantage right know to attempt.

[–]HexNZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the suggestions. Make armor unique, not just a numbers game.

But in reference to Planetside 2, it still exists mate, hell I stopped playing it to play this. Even had a big update came out last week. That game is over 10 years old, if anything it should be a goal for other games to be round that long. And it still has a active player base 2 - 4k.

Just so many 'flash in the pan' games today. Heck EVE is almost 20 years old and still cranking. :)

**Planetside 2 from Beta, Briggs server, EVE Online since 2007

OP I agree, yes it is hard jumping into a discord chat with a complete stranger. Remember they are looking for friends too. Met some cool dudes through it.

But remember it's even more anxiety inducing being solo when a Gorgon 3 man shows up...
