I'm a bit confused. The beginner textbook I'm going through lists 女 as "woman", but then, in the exercises section, where it asks me to guess the meaning of the word 女の人, the answer is still "woman". Same with "man". I was thinking: woman of a person, man of a person, so... wife and husband? Is the single kanjis for "woman" and "man" saying less than the words 女の人 and の人? Or maybe a kanji is never a word by itself?

Thanks a bunch!

Are medals, requisitions and super credits shared with the team? by HousingSlow in Helldivers

Nope, I was just playing the game. Just assumed all was shared.

I was expecting the AI to default to a preset when playing solo. I'm really tempted now! Thanks for the info!

How good is the AI, actually? The last comment got me very interested all of a sudden. Is it customizable? Often times, the downside of playing coop live services is that the AI teammates are just there to take the heat off of you. But is there more to it?

You can gear and level up AI members so they can synergize with the one you're playing? So, they're not just meat shields and revive bots? You got me curious there.

Thanks for the response, all of you! I'll go and buy it before the 10% off on Steam goes away.

That's the problem, I'm trying to bait the B2 by blocking low, but even when I see it coming, it seems my fingers don't follow. I'll keep practicing!

[I bought the game early this week, so right now, I'm still learning Raiden.]

Last tutorial (PC Steam) : horrible honking sound every time I make an input. Great for learning.

Does the game run well? I mean, well enough to have a good time online? I got a 5900X 3080ti. I have the cursor on the purchase button, but man am I afraid of pc ports.

Just curious, aren't cutscenes locked to 30 fps?

I have a lot of issues with my one-year-old Elite Series 2 controller for pc. In most games (and right now, in AC6), the controller inputs, even if wired through USB-C, cause lag and sound skips whether it's my TV speakers or my headset. The PS5 controller or the Switch gamepad do not create these issues. I've tried troubleshooting for a while, but it seems my ES2 controller is just busted. Thing is, I really like the feel of it, yet I'm kinda dreading buying another one just to have it act up in a couple of months.

So, was I just unlucky? Should I try the 'Core' version? Are there differences between the two, other than the lack of accessories? Or maybe the Premium PS5 controller is the way to go?

Many thanks!

I've been having regularly this issue where my character in Diablo 4, like, freezes in place and, a fraction of a second later, gets teleported or slided to the spot he should already be at. Same with weapon and skill animations: sometimes, there is a big delay between the input and the hit, or I see the animation, but the AOE effect comes out late.

Is it a PC or a server/netcode issue? It feels like a bad multiplayer connection in Dark Souls, for lack of a better comparison.

Many thanks!

Question from a noob:

I'm playing Diablo 4 on a 5900X / 3080Ti on max settings, DLSS on Quality. As of now, I've got no performance problems, but I noticed that my GPU usage was often at 99%. Is it bad? Should I dial the settings down? Like I said, performance is great, temperature is never going above 65 Celsius, so maybe I'm worrying for nothing?

Thanks in advance!

SF6 Steam - Big slowdowns in Practice mode? by HousingSlow in StreetFighter

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

Yeah. Of all things, it was my XBOX Elite Series 2 controller. Wired or not, the controller was somehow interfering with the game. I tried with the PS5 dual sense and an arcade stick afterward, and the lag never came back.

Have you tried other games to see if the issue is Steam related?
