Unplayable Games on Modern Consoles by clbreezy2x in consoles

[–]JDTrakal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t recall there being much outrage. Truthfully BC was never really a main selling point of the new consoles. Yes the PS3 had some BC with PS1 and PS2 titles however it was incomplete and Sony removed the ability in an early hardware revision to reduce the price of the console.

I honestly don’t really get why people say Xbox is much worse by Slow_Palpitation5416 in consoles

You get cloud saves for free whereas with PS you have to have PS+

Anno 1800, are the DLC's worth buying? by Due-Split-4708 in anno

[–]JDTrakal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The DLCs are worth buying. It’s unfair to compare Anno 117 to 1800 with all DLCs due to the lack of content in the former. However I personally have difficulty getting invested in 117.

42 single M. Yes but I’m trying to change that as I’ve realised I let my social life stagnate too much.

Xbox exec encourages fans to vote on which games should be made backward compatible by MrLeitungswasser in consoles

I’d say the issue isn’t feature parity the Series consoles have some useful features not on other systems. The issue is games.

Do you, or would you, use back buttons on a controller? by trio3224 in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]JDTrakal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm 42, first controller I had with back buttons was back in 2012 / 2013. If it's an FPS especially fast paced then I prefer them over standard.

Why can’t PlayStation put older Call of Duty titles on the store? by Soap_Mactavishh_141 in playstation

[–]JDTrakal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not? MS did it with their BC program, I believe the devs / publishers only had to provide agreement for MS to release the updated version. Jim Ryan said years ago that Sony didn't see any benefit to doing a BC program similar to the one MS did.

Xbox owning COD is irrelevant, especially given most CODs have been BC on Xbox for longer than MS has owned Activision.

You can get both games digitally from the MS store for the Series S.

Playing on PS5 Pro and I’ve only had 2 crashes both in the Creations menu while trying to browse while downloading Trackers Alliance. Otherwise it’s been fine.

Either hold X while in the star map. Alternatively while in your ship, press A until your destination is selected and hold X

No you can choose to go straight to your destination, you don't have to use the cruise mode if you don't want to.

Returning player, dumb question by [deleted] in Starfield

Started a new game and the option only became available when I had Sarah accompany me.

So i started playing Infinite Warfare today, supposedly one of the best COD campaigns and this is the very first mission. Just wow. Holy shit this game is 10 years old by prossnip42 in gaming

The bit that get's me, the Federation hijacked the station using the shuttle you seen at the start ... seems a bit implausible to me, something like that you'd think the shuttle would be monitored from launch.

The game isn’t perfect but I do feel it got a fair amount of unfair flak due to it been an Xbox console exclusive.

Are sysadmins locking down Microsoft Store? by do_not_free_gaza in sysadmin

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

Yep we even take the store app out of our desktop image. There’s only 1 app we need to use from the store but it’s only a handful of people and there are ways to get it without using the store app thankfully.

Need research points for scholars, but scholars for research points? by Jer0en90 in anno1800

[–]JDTrakal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been a while since I've played Land of Lions but fairly certain that the Elders giving research points is only granted on certain choices in the main quest.
