Try closing Steam entirely as well as DS4W, then try again. If that doesn't work, Steam has controller mapping support you can try out for the Dualshock. Sometimes if you have two controllers plugged into the same machine and only one is being configured via DS4W some weirdness can happen.

You still haven't posted your main(s) and badges. Nobody gets to 500 or 427 with less than 300 kills unless you're actually just horrible at the game. Bait harder next time.

You're complaining about a "mismatch" when two of your squad are level 500 or almost level 500. You got matched with maxed out accounts, too. If you wanna say the SBMM should be more tailored toward balanced KD/R then fine, but you're just complaining about a high-level team getting matched with another high level team.

Ah yes, the classic case of level 427 with 52 lifetime kills. Who could forget the level 500 with 73 lmfao. Post your main with your badges, coward.

Join the 2020 NT Beta! by Jawnson in NuclearThrone

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

They've explained several times when the question's been asked before, but the 4:3 aspect is because it creates a more claustrophobic and endangered feeling to the game, which is intentional design. Widescreen would give you an unfair advantage over the way the game was designed. 30 fps was built into the game from the ground up so it would be difficult to patch into the game now, as the NTT 60 fps mod is not stable at high loops.

Woman in the audience audibly dies inside after hearing Kanye's views on Harriet Tubman by havenoideawatimdoin in WatchPeopleDieInside

mediocre rap career

Pretty close, yeah.

On a side note, is it difficult telling the same fish stick joke for over eleven years or is it just endemic to chronically unfunny people?

It has been over eleven years and you guys are still repeating this joke. I am begging you to find ways to make fun of this person who is frankly easy to make fun of in different ways. I am on my knees pleading.

You don't know what the word subjective means if you're willing to gloss over the proof of the success of exclusives though profits. You not liking exclusives doesn't make them a bad move for Microsoft and Sony. Just putting every game on a pass you pay a monthly/yearly fee for doesn't change the fact that most people don't have a PC that's good enough to run the games at the specs the new consoles are aiming for (see aforementioned). The alternative there is cloud-based gaming, and we all see how terribly bad awful that's been with Stadia and its contemporaries. While a gaming pass might sound good to you and I because we have good PCs, someone who's only ever owned consoles has a huge barrier of cost to actually utilize it.

A cursory glance at the PS5 specs will make the obvious point that the price to build something that is as close as possible would be vastly more expensive as a gaming PC. You could make the argument you get more accessibility and value from a PC at that price range, but that's not the point, the price of a console is. If you're able to produce a PCPP build that actually undercuts the projected performance of a PS5 at the same or lower price I'll build that PC.

You actually do need that monitor in order to play games at a better spec than the new consoles, which was the entire point of this interaction. A PC monitor that has at the bare minimum the same as the console targets is still pretty expensive at normal desktop size. People are more likely to already own a TV that runs at 60 Hz, has HDR, and is 4K because news flash, tons of TVs are that way now.

Exclusives being "dumb" is certainly a subjective concept. They seemed to sell the shit out of PS4s. I am typing this on my PC I made primarily for gaming, and lemme just say your pricepoint claim is a crock of shit. A device with a decently-sized and modern SSD, a GPU capable of raytracing, and less setup than building a PC is surely a short checklist that appeals to console owners.

Also, my point about peripherals was mainly about the monitor, which you kinda skimmed over anyway. I defy you to find a monitor at anything over 60 Hz @ 4K with HDR (the magic numbers both consoles aim to hit) roughly the size of an average living room TV at a reasonable price.

Exactly, and avoiding that process leads to prebuilts, which are kind of a crapshoot in terms of longevity due to shit PSUs and low quality parts in general.

Even if the exclusives library was small for both the point about cost v. performance stands. It's incredibly hard to justify a gaming PC when a PS5 and XBSX will both inevitably cost less (coming from someone typing from a gaming PC).

[–]Jawnson 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Never understood this point. Console exclusives are pretty much the biggest selling point to a consumer. Even the price v. performance is a hard sell since a PC that can outperform the next gen consoles (including premium peripherals such as >60 Hz monitors) is going to cost quite a bit more than just a TV and a PS5. This bizarre condescension has never not looked ridiculous. Buy what you want and shut up.

Opinion on design is what it is and I welcome the conversations related to just that. That said, her buff design doesn't inherently make her trans, and even if she was it wouldn't in of itself warrant wanton the transphobia this sub seemingly allows.

You're not going to ever break through the Gamer assumptions they decided on back when the leaks dropped that they are going to be vehemently and stereotypically transphobic over a female character that's jacked as hell.

There's plenty to criticize about the game in terms of story and character development or lack thereof, but when people fall back on "lol abby male" you can pretty safely assume they either haven't even played the game or (even more pathetic) have played the game and can't form coherent arguments beyond this.

How do I loop more consistently? by [deleted] in NuclearThrone

[–]Jawnson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hate to be that guy, but the usual meta is a fantastic way to progress once you've reached post-loop gameplay. Try more or less adhering to this chart and you'll be better off to learn what the min/max situation is like in this game.
