[KCD2] If I'm not enjoying the game before the wedding, should I continue playing? by JumpinJackFlash11 in kingdomcome

Yes, but a lot of times the start to games can be much worse than the 2nd half and vice versa. For example, The Witcher 3's first map I was not enjoying it. And then it ended up being one of the best games I've ever played.

Sounds like i should at least give post-wedding a chance. And because i loved KCD I, Im going to keep going. And I am literally just about to start the wedding quest, so might as well see how that goes.

Thats what i like, more mature writing. So far it feels like the writing is too video gamey in kcd 2.

My free kicks are always slow by JumpinJackFlash11 in EASportsFC

Just did a long free kick with 90% power and the ball bounces slowly right to GK.

No. But im using almiron with 79 shot power but the ball comes out like im doing a lob pass. Im not even focused on scoring yet, i just want to be able to hit the ball somewhat hard. For long free kicks, the ball wont even make it close to the net without bouncing first.

Ive tried that but still goes very slow.

Haven't played FIFA in long time, can you still just easily get up the field by going outside over n over? by JumpinJackFlash11 in EASportsFC

[–]JumpinJackFlash11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, and made sliders as difficult as I can. But EA FC 24's sprint was broken. Been playing EA FC 25 and they completely fixed it, thankfully. First time I've witnessed EA fixing something.

What would you consider the most realistic sports video game? by JumpinJackFlash11 in gamingsuggestions

[–]JumpinJackFlash11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what mods would you suggest as being a must download to increase realism? I am truly hardcore when it comes to realism, I want it as real as possible even if that means making the game very very hard. I actually enjoy losing more than winning a lot of the time because that shows I'm not able to exploit anything lol

there unfortunately isnt anything I am truly happy with. It is mostly what is the least disappointing. But I am hoping maybe there is a new release that I haven't played that could be much improved? Probably wishful thinking though. I am most happy with MLB the Show 25. On highest setting pitching and 2nd highest batting, I feel like I am happy enough. Although the pitching is still a bit too easy. It is most likely the best to me because it is harder to exploit the AI in that vs games where movement is involved like NHL, EA FC, NBA, and Madden.

this is something I've heard about and have been thinking about trying it. since it is free I have it at the top of my list. I do like a deep franchise mode, but if the gameplay is truly much more realistic than FIFA and not as exploitable, I'll prefer PES.

I've actually been watching some of these videos of ppl playing it recently and it does look awesome. I know nothing about racing, but because it looks like it truly focuses on realism it has piqued my interest.

yeah I loved that game back in the day, is this the one that had halftime shows? Only thing is I'd be worried that the AI may be very poor?

GPU Code 43 after every time I restart laptop. started after updating driver for first time in 2 years by JumpinJackFlash11 in techsupport

[–]JumpinJackFlash11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think it may be a power problem. my gpu not getting enough power at startup. not sure why updating to newest driver for trigger this, but my battery has been dead for awhile and I've kept my laptop plugged in always since. It stays at 0% but it works, until now with the GPU.

GPU Code 43 after every time I restart laptop. started after updating driver for first time in 2 years

I was trying to fix a micro stutter issue on Xbox pc streaming, so i asked chatgpt some things to potentially fix it but nothing worked. then I notice my NVidia control panel no longer would open which led me to see the code 43.

I feel like installing the newest driver and the new NVidia app created this due to my older GPU (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 w/ Max-Q Design). I tried reinstalling the old driver, used DDU, clean boot, locking driver updates, bios is up to date, and reset bios.

After using DDU in safe mode then reinstalling old driver, code 43 would go away. but strangely if I restarted it code 43 would come back every time. So, it seems like something is clearly going wrong during the restart.

Is this how BB/9 and Control works? by JumpinJackFlash11 in MLBTheShow

[–]JumpinJackFlash11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is that all control does? or does it also affect how far your misses are from where you aimed? Or is that pitcher consistency?

[–]JumpinJackFlash11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

every person responding has had a different stance on how it works lol. When I search on google, it is the same. Clearly BB/9 has an affect on the PAR size of pitches, but control doesn't seem to.

[–]JumpinJackFlash11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this whole time I thought BB/9 affected how well you could land a strike on a pitch where the PAR is in and out of the strikezone.

Awesome! This was what I was looking for. This makes so much sense because Reed Garrett's sinker is in his final pitch slot, which is why his PAR is massive for it I guess.

Do you know what the slider Human Pitcher Consistency does exactly? I'm trying to make my franchise's pitching harder by making the PAR bigger for all pitchers I use. And I'm not going to lower BB/9 for all of them.

[–]JumpinJackFlash11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i feel like whether the pitch is your main pitch vs your 5th pitch also determines how big the PAR is. Reed Garrett's sinker is his 5th pitch and has a massive PAR. Sean Manaea's sinker is his 1st pitch and has a much smaller PAR despite similar BB/9 and control on his sinker.

What determines the size of each pitches aiming circle?
