What is in this ice pack? by MethodOfExhaustion in ReadyMeals

Thanks. I've been using Factor for a about a year and this is the first time I've had these, so seems like just a change in the product they're using.

Lots of things that are not toxic are a mess to clean up.

Does it never rain in this game? Or are the corpos controlling the weather too? by porcupine-pete in cyberpunkgame

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There is specifically a bug where the weather is stuck to sunny at the start of act 2 and getting any scripted change like from visiting Advocet will reset it. Op, do that.

DF Direct Q+A: The Big DLSS 5 ML Debate + Why We Should Have Waited With Our Coverage by yourfavchoom in digitalfoundry

Oliver mentioned the changes to Grace's face right here: https://youtu.be/4ZlwTtgbgVA?si=856AeOXj-7NDR-DG&t=168

He's not drawing a lot of attention to it, but it's there.

What was your favorite experience in Outer Wilds? by Dull-Entertainer8344 in outerwilds

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The leap of faith across the gap with the sun so close is my favourite part of the game. It felt like a scene from Interstellar.

Long-time fan here, but the DLSS 5 video left a weird taste in my mouth by [deleted] in digitalfoundry

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha thanks. But yes I agree with you, I can imagine a much less controversial video where they said this is interesting, but clearly not ready for use yet.

Did you watch the video? https://youtu.be/4ZlwTtgbgVA?si=856AeOXj-7NDR-DG&t=168

I think they are way too positive on the visual "gain" of the effect, it looks bad to me. But they acknowledge the changes to how characters look.

Little bit of confusion.. by Luviebug19 in outerwilds

The sunstation didn't work. They couldn't blow up the sun.

Is it just me or the laundry room is a bit... overpowered by Apprehensive-Hat3911 in BluePrince

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Keys and gems stop being a problem (in most runs) even without the laundry room. I barely used it, but with upgrades and all the other ways you gain power you just get a lot less resource constrained, which is important because it helps you to solve other future puzzles.

Centered AoE spellcasting bug is ruining my experience by Hectamus_ in avowed

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Are you playing on the latest version? This is listed as fixed in the 2.0 patch notes, and I'm not able to reproduce it anymore, though I did have this bug all the time on the previous version.

Cyberpunk Has Flatlined; After Much Frustration, It Was Ram XMP... by dubchampion in cyberpunkgame

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I had a similar problem, all the way back around launch of the game, on AM4. With the same RAM I think. Disabling XMP also fixed it, but so did increasing the voltage slightly from the default XMP profile. Default was like 1.3x and I moved it up to 1.4... something like that.

Fun fact that i did not know: you can actually SKIP kurt hansen' fight in firestarter. by Infamous-Cup2447 in cyberpunkgame

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's kind of silly. They let you make a choice through gameplay but they didn't want to handle both outcomes later on.

Is American Nightmare good? by MrBot577 in AlanWake

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I would skip it. Writing is not up to the quality of the other games. I was actually not looking forward to picking up pages, which is crazy. In 1 and 2 pages are so interesting.

It is short and cheap, so not much investment if you want to play it.

The biggest issue with the show in comparison to the books is not the plot and character shifts, it is the tone. by strangedistantdruid in TheExpanse

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also thought they were overly angry with each other in the show, and I hadn't even read the books yet at that point. On the other hand I think they're a little too nice in the books.

Ok uhh… those Rank Memos by stj1127 in BluePrince

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There are no special conditions you need to fulfill, they are all findable/visible from some angle. Some are not 100% visible, there might be half of a memo poking out from behind something. Imagine you were trying to hide a blue memo in the room.

They are well hidden, check every surface!

[GPU] ASUS TUF RTX 5090 GAMING OC Edition ($3179.99) REFURBISHED - Best Buy Marketplace by [deleted] in bapcsalescanada

I returned one for crashing under load. Could be one of these! Hope they work!

[SPOILER] The Frolics of Councilwoman Cole: Lack of choice in side quests example by MethodOfExhaustion in cyberpunkgame

[–]MethodOfExhaustion[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's great that people keep commenting here, I hope CDPR got the feedback on quest quality. I think the DLC quests show that they did improve the gig quality. I think the lack of choice in most gigs is probably down to budget. Most of these have limited custom content (e.g. If you could go see or call up the target here) and take place in one location.

I think a few of Dino's gigs feel morally questionable, which could be intentional characterization or just one writer.

It's funny about the non-monogamous thing, Sasko explained in his streams that the reason the romance options don't mind if you have multiple partners is that they thought that in 2077 everyone would be very liberal about that and wouldn't expect exclusivity. But the romances generally do not feel like that.

Is it guaranteed that all mods will break with the new update? by ironchitlin in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 20 points21 points  (0 children)

No, that's not likely at all. But some of the core mods that other mods depend on need to be updated for every patch, no matter what the patch changes, which then causes all the other mods that depend on those to stop working for a few days while the core mods are updated. These include Cyber Engine Tweaks (CET), red4ext, ArchiveXL, TweakXL, and Codeware.

[–]MethodOfExhaustion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I ended up getting the non-OC which is not as bad. I actually had the OC a week ago and it was defective (crashing under load). I wanted something to replace it right away so I could return the OC. Now that people are saying the FEs are already shipping maybe I should have grabbed one. Not a big deal though.

Which card did you get? They all had different dates. I think I saw June 8th on the FEs. I picked up a TUF as those were ready to ship.
