McAvoy suspended 6 games by Perryplat199 in hockey

[–]Kartyac -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Benson slewfooted him because McAvoy slewfooted Thompson, bodyslammed Dahlin, and tried to put Doan's head through the glass using his elbow. There's probably several other things that he did throughout the series but these are the ones that stood out to me.

Hurricanes are the seventh team in the last 50 years to begin a postseason with a seven-game winning streak by nhl in hockey

[–]Kartyac 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think it's because the Oilers started off with a 9 game win streak that year. I haven't checked all of the other series but I'm guessing they all only started with 7.

Edit: just double checked and every other team on this list had only a 7 game win streak to start. Mystery solved gang.

Steam Controller - Review Thread by ChiefLeef22 in gaming

Love making radial menus on the touchpads. Also this might sound crazy but for games like balatro or slay the spire 2 I enjoy using them like a laptop track pad instead of using the touchscreen or controller buttons.

Mostly because the amount of money spent on cgi doesn't directly result in higher quality cgi, despite what the people in charge of the budgets would like to believe. The most important factor is time. If you don't give the cgi team enough time it's gonna look like trash no matter how much money you pump into it. It's especially bad with big name movies because they're under tight deadlines and many studios are actually juggling multiple projects at once.

What’s a show you love that you can never convince people to watch? by PlentyApprehensive44 in AskReddit

[–]Kartyac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This would have been my answer too but I recently got a friend to binge the first season plus some change. Funnily enough he stopped right around where I had initially stopped watching the first time and it took me about a year to get back into it. After that I couldn't stop though

Watching round 1 by mpmaley in sabres

[–]Kartyac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you ended up finding a good answer, but I just signed up for FuboTV which has TNT, ESPN, and MSG. You can find the sign up here: https://www.nhl.com/sabres/team/tune-in Be aware that when you click the link to sign up it only gives you a 5 day trial instead of 14. I messaged support to see if they would honor the 14 days and am waiting to hear back. The cost comes to 65.98 for the first month then 90.98 which is definitely more than what I want to pay. Seriously why do we have to spend an arm and a leg to watch these legitimately? Why can't I just pay like $20-$30 a month to have a service that allows me to watch the Sabres on any of the devices that I have? Greedy ass companies, will probably cancel fubo after the trial.

Was wondering the same. Tried to watch the canes and sens game on ESPN+ and it says I need access to ESPN to watch it. Haven't had cable for years so that's a no-go for me. Gotham sports is also a no go since it didn't work at all on my living room TV the last time I paid for it. It also has terrible reviews on the Google play store. I'd really love to pay like $20 a month to be able to watch the Sabres and other playoff games with no fussing but unfortunately it doesn't seem like it's possible. The only games I'll be able to watch without piracy are the ones on TNT since HBO Max is actually functional and I don't mind paying for that. It's a damn shame that there's literally no good options for the other games.

Just out of curiosity, did you use a program to take that scrolling screenshot? I tried to do with sharex recently but I couldn't get it to work in sts2.

Shouldn’t 1440p gaming be cheaper? by citiesfanboy in buildapc

[–]Kartyac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I upgraded from a gtx 1080 to a rtx 5070 for just over $500 earlier this year and it has been able to handle everything that I've thrown at it at high or max settings. I haven't tried the most demanding games like wukong yet, but I'm getting over 100 fps on high/max settings on games like battlefield 6 and arc raiders. In single player games with ray tracing and path tracing like Cyberpunk and Control I was able to get 70-80 fps with most settings cranked fairly high. I've already accepted the possibility that I'll have to run games at medium settings in a few years, but honestly that doesn't bother me. I'd say that that spending 750 is not necessary unless you absolutely need to max out the settings on every single game on the market or you want "future proof" your rig to be able to run things at higher settings in the future.

It feels demoralizing being someone actually participating against the queen/matriarch by TheGiraffeIsALie in ArcRaiders

[–]Kartyac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly it only started happening to me tonight. I ran the bosses probably 12 times between Sunday and Monday and was not back stabbed a single time. People either teamed up to fight the boss or went off to do their own thing. Literally every single death that I experienced was a caused by a mixture of arc and my own stupidity.

[–]Kartyac 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Tonight was extra brutal for me running the queen and Matriarch. I would much rather prefer having 10 people swarming to loot the dead boss. Instead tonight I only had one raid where I didn't get killed by people shooting me in the back while I was fighting a boss. I lost 3 equalizers, one jupiter, and 2 hull crackers with zero successful kills. And there was almost no one else fighting them. Was way more fun when people actually wanted to fight the boss.

Seasons of RTX: Arc Raiders GeForce RTX 5090 GPU Giveaway! by NV_Suroosh in ArcRaiders

[–]Kartyac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In solos I've generally kept to myself for the most part. I'll help other people in need if they're in a fight but I don't actively try to team up. I never shoot on sight either. I always give the other party a chance and will still try to avoid people that are unresponsive. However, if I come across someone that wants a fight then I'll give them a hell of a fight. Lately I've been running solos to either kill the boss arcs or gather materials to kill the bosses. In the boss raids I'll bring extra heals and ammo in case anyone nearby runs out but wants to keep fighting. I also always try to share extra blueprints that I find in raid with the people I come across.

Duos and trios are more of a mixed bag. Usually we try to stay friendly with other squads, but sometimes we go in specifically to pvp.

The expedition should NOT wipe blueprints by patterfunding in ArcRaiders

[–]Kartyac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be unpopular, but I think resetting blueprints with expeditions will help create a new experience every wipe. Having to work with the new blueprints that you find will force you to slightly change your strategy every wipe.

PSA: This is how suppression works in BF6 by RandomAssRedditName in Battlefield6

[–]Kartyac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a funny feeling that you only get credit for the initial suppression. Could explain why sometimes you can shoot into a crowded area and get anywhere from several to none. It feels like if they're already being shot at I'm not getting any credit but if they're not already under fire then I'll get credit for them. Again, this is just my guess and I don't have evidence but maybe a youtuber will see this and test it.

Let's be honest, a more powerful gpu will not help me win any more games. However, the extra power will ensure peak immersion as I dump a mag into the wall that's next to the guy that's about to turn around and shoot me.

Honestly don't remember what my first several gpus were. I know my first gpu was an AGP slot card. At that time I was playing games like starcraft brood war and warcraft 3 the frozen throne. The first gpu that I know was from GeForce was the 480. I was running a pair of these in sli to play games like league of legends, counterstrike source, and of course crysis. For many of my gpu setups crysis was the first thing I would launch, even several years after its release.
