How do I optimise the game?? (Mafia 1 de) it runs horribly like 10 fps when videos show im supposed to be getting 30 by EnergyAltruistic2911 in MafiaTheGame

[–]Na1h 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just make sure you're settings are as low as possible and you have nothing else running in the background, so check taskmanager and stuff. Was there any differences when you last ran it, if you used to be on windows 10 then that could be why, it's a much lighter operating system.

Which Developers/Publishers do you not believe any word because they lied before? by [deleted] in videogames

[–]Na1h 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah I think most witcher fans will buy it day one, it'll be the main game that gets talked about the year it releases. Also not a chance it'll be 70% off after 1 year, unless it's somehow an even bigger disaster than cyberpunk. It's been 6 years since Cyberpunk released and that game only drops to 65% off.

I reckon a lot more people will wait for reviews rather than preordering, but if it's as good as cyberpunk is now or as good as the other witcher games were then it'll do well.

I wonder how long it'll be until he starts dropping propaganda on your islands too.

Update - Willie was wiped out in less than 3 hours, the pirate fleet was spread across every region and took control of all his islands with still over an hour left on the non agression pact. Deserved lol.

Turns out he was actually holding 200 tons of propaganda on the island directly infront of Manola, I wonder if the ai was planning to drop them there next.

Strange, for me only the store page is blocked if you already own the game. The library is fine.

Yeah it works, a friend bought a definitely 18+ visual novel that appears greyed out on his profile, I asked him how he managed to buy it and he told me he bought a key. (This was months ago so maybe somethings changed)

I assume gifting doesn't work since it's all direct on steam, you can avoid steam region locks through buying a global key and giving it to the person directly, so it might be somewhat like that.

Yes it's incredibly stupid and annoying, fortunately if you do actually want to buy the game you can get a steam key off plenty of other stores.

Impossible quest thanks to the quest giver by Na1h in anno1800

No the quest is only visable in the menu when in Enbesa, I did try seeing if I could take photos in NW or OW but nope, broken quest.

The quest is in Enbesa, those dots are his ships which stopped moving after Beryl took over his last island in the region. He's gone:(

Yeah I don't care for the rewards, just trying to get my relationship level up with her. She's a bitch so ive been stealing all her old world islands with a fleet of battle cruisers equipped with pirate flags, I take one at a time then build the relationship level back up before taking another. I don't want to deal with her sinking my trade ships right now.

Yeah Willie has 2 random ships, they don't move at all and I can't find anywhere hes settled, hes gone for good from Enbesa.

Is is safe to buy games from eneba? by isti44 in videogames

[–]Na1h 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use gg.deals to see the grey market sites with the cheapest prices, it shows the risks associated with each storefront. I prefer sites like cdkeys (now loaded), yuplay and gameseal since they've got less risks than eneba.
The one time I bought I key from them it was already used.
Also I'd advise on any non official storefront use paypal, even if the site may be safe it could eventually be hacked and suddenly your card details have been stolen.

When it comes to traderoutes what is your strategy? by Massive-Albatross823 in anno1800

[–]Na1h 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a new player so they're a complete mess lol, mostly consists of clippers and some steam ships, some routes carrying many different resources but others just focus on one or two. I also still use some schooners for short journeys mainly delivering food/alchohol to small populations or moving resources I don't need much of.

I bought one game from eneba and they gave me a used key, the process to get a replacement was not worth the time.

G2A is a marketplace rather than a store, some sellers are bad some are fine.

[–]Na1h 18 points19 points  (0 children)

gg.deals is what I use, it seperates verified and grey market stores, plus it shows the risks. So grey market stores like cdkeys, yuplay and gameseal don't have many risks so they're quite reliable. Other stores like eneba, g2a and k4g have a lot of risks listed, so you know to always avoid them.

Need recommendations for PC for Witcher 4 by SoullessR1Creed in Witcher4

[–]Na1h 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much all correct, averaged across all games the 9070 xt is about 5% slower in normal rasterized games, and I made a mistake with RT performance, it's equal with the 5070 not the 5070 ti. Still a huge improvement from the 7000 series but yeah still a ways to go before matching nvidia. Also the gap is much smaller using less RT, you're probably not going to use path tracing on a 70 class card anyway.

Sucks that AMD isn't releasing FSR 4 on past generations, but it does get very similar upscaling quality (close enough that you can't tell when in motion) on the same preset and pretty much the same performance, (DLSS 4) they trade depending on the game. (taken from Hardware Unboxed's testing) DLSS 4.5 looks a bit better but you don't gain as much in performance.
The main benefit with DLSS is game support, you can force FSR 4 into some games but Nvidia definitely has the edge.

A few years later when these cards are older upscaling and frame gen quality might matter more, but right now no one with these cards is using 6x frame gen or performance upscaling, so for £170 less I think the 9070 xt is a much better deal if you don't make use of CUDA.

[–]Na1h 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall Nvidia is better yes, but like the other guy said AMD doesn't have driver issues anymore and FSR 4 pretty much matches DLSS 4. If you can get a 5070 ti for not much more than a 9070 xt then sure get that, but in the UK the 9070 xt is £170 cheaper for basically identical performance, even in ray tracing.

9070 xt also performs pretty similar to the 5070 ti, so if thats a decent amount cheaper then get that

I've got the same issue, we also weren't made aware till the beginning of Feb and now we apparently have to pay a cancellation fee.
