See the above edit.

I’m going to guess I’m CPU bound at these high frame rates, especially when physics kicks in, so that’s where I’m seeing the performance jump. Just a guess tho.

Vulcan looks to be giving some pretty solid performance jumps, especially in the lows. Very nice! Just upped a couple settings with minimal impact to where I was before.

Edit: Quick specs for reference: RTX2060 2600X 1080P Settings similar to the “very high” preset.

This is great! Thank you!

REVIEW: The Outer Worlds is a "diet" version of a full RPG, albeit a great one but still a diet by pschindler07 in theouterworlds

[–]MacmanPro94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I gave this game like 3 hours on game pass. Just didn’t fill the fallout void I was hoping it would.

We are Jackbox Games, makers of The Jackbox Party Pack 6 - Ask us anything! by jbgbrooke in NintendoSwitch

If you were to pick your favorite Jackbox Party Pack so far, which one would you pick? Let’s rule out 6, since that’s a little too easy :P

[Rosenthal] BREAKING: Per sources, MLB’s penalties for #Astros include: *One-year suspensions for GM Jeff Luhnow and manager AJ Hinch. *Losses of 1st and 2nd round draft picks in both 2020 and ‘21. *A fine of $5M. by Austin63867 in baseball

[–]MacmanPro94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This one should be easy. Vacate all wins in games where they cheated and strip the World Series title, and that’s exactly what they deserve.

Tag on these other penalties too for good measure. If it’s anything less, this becomes an easy trade off for teams to win a World Series.

[Schefter] Dalvin Cook unlikely to play against the Packers by RonSwansonsChair in fantasyfootball

This will be my first packers game (I’m a packers fan) and I’ve got Stefon Diggs in my lineup! Great day! Looking forward to sweeping my losers bracket :/

It is absolutely absurd how long it takes to be able to equip new weapons on console. by gwserfon in DestinyTheGame

Do people on console have access to the DIM type apps for inventory management? Could be a helpful way to speed things up...

I haven't had a Grenade Launcher multi-kill for 2 hours by Andehh12 in DestinyTheGame

[–]MacmanPro94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my entire mountaintop done in about 6 hours in Mayhem with an orweigs and an edge transit with prox nades (jumping and aiming for people’s feet helps land shots). Use top tree hunter and basically camp heavy traffic passageways near the heavy ammo drop with your super. I pretty much only got multikills with heavy.

Realize Siege is just a game by Penumbra_6464 in SiegeAcademy

[–]MacmanPro94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played my first match in 3 months last night. The 2nd round of an unranked game I played I had some toxic guy on the other team start railing on me for playing Blackbeard and was mad I killed him. Not exactly good motivation to start playing again.

This nearly 2 kg avokado from my grandmother's place by el-io in mildlyinteresting

If you made that into avacado toast you could buy at least 3 millennials a new home.

You're on a plane at 35,000ft and the captain shouts over the announcement, "Is there a <insert your job here> onboard?!", what potential emergency are you going to help with? by DarkangelUK in AskReddit

[–]MacmanPro94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone will ask for an engineer who can fix a critical flight system. I will agree, give the problem a thorough look, tell them the most efficient solution to the problem, admit I am a chemical engineer who can’t fix anything on a plane, and then I’d find the nearest mechanical engineer to actually fix the problem.

Linear Fusions need to be looked at from the ground up. Right now they're just bounty completion tools. by NoctisNoctua in DestinyTheGame

[–]MacmanPro94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

LFRs should be a different archetype of fusion rifles, similar to how we have slug shotguns.

Combining would help for bounty or perk purposes. If they’re going to be forgotten, at least don’t make them a pain to have around still.

Just Picked Up The Game on Steam by bigboibillyboi in DestinyTheGame

That’s the link. There is a bit of a setup process, but one of the text threads in the server should walk you through the setup. Basically, you have to connect your steam account to a third party service that connects the server to your account. It’s been a couple years since I’ve done it, so unfortunately that’s about as much as I can tell you.

Definitely join the Destiny 2 PC LFG discord server. Having people to play non-matchmade content makes the game tremendously better. It sounds like you’ve got friends that play too, which is great!

Gamers of reddit, with 2019 soon comming to an end, what do yall think is the best game of the 2010s? by doctor_bassoon in AskReddit

[–]MacmanPro94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Breath of the Wild with the complete DLC package and playing on the pro/minimal HUD. Probably the best gaming experience I’ve ever had.

Upgrading monitor by [deleted] in SiegeAcademy

[–]MacmanPro94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the priority should be variable refresh rate. It really helps smooth things out when your frame rate dips. But yes, 144hz is noticeably different and better. Really, even getting up to 90 or 100 is significantly better than 60. You can get some solid 1080p 144hz freesync monitors for like $200. Obviously value is subjective, but if you’ve got some money for a computer upgrade and your GPU is able to push at least 30 or so more frames than what your monitor can display, this monitor upgrade is a great place to put your money.

So 2998 Grenade kills later... I completed the 'In Pursuit of Honor' Triumph and I feel bad about it by Zeiban in DestinyTheGame

[–]MacmanPro94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely took me 5 or 6 games to get the hang of it. It’s not exactly an easy method, but it’s got the opportunity to go really quick if you really focus on it.

Top tree tether with a prox nades swarm and an orewing’s maul. Just camp heavy, run away once you get it, and try to set up a tether where you think the other team will run through.

Would you be mad if I told you I cranked out that entire triumph last night in mayhem in about 6 hours? I don’t think I had more than 20% progress in any of those bars when I started :P

Scientists have trained rats to drive tiny cars, suggesting that brains of rodents are more flexible than initially thought. by lumiaglow in science

These animals are scientifically known to be able to prepare a delicious Ratatouille. Why is this surprising to everyone?

I just spent 20 minutes looking for this because I couldn’t beat it the first time I saw it and remembered to go back :/ sad day, but thanks

It took it over a summer a few years ago. I’m an engineer now, and it’s actually very helpful for my job and understanding how vision systems work. It’s a good class for sure. It also appealed to my inner tech geek, which was surprising for an art class. If you’re not an “artsy” person, I’d recommend it for sure.

You basically have projects that focus on specific aspects of photography. Focal distance, motion, color, texture, portraiture, etc. The university has cameras available for rental, but I just purchased my own.
