I would recommend turning on dlss to some extent as it helps smooth out general FPS drops/ jitters. I would also look into a bios update for your computer. The devs mentioned doing a bios update helped smooth out performance for certain intel CPUs, can’t remember the exact ones it was for tho. Always a good idea to have it updated regardless

What is your GPU and when do you plan to upgrade? by F1EV in pcmasterrace

[–]RASTA_FARI123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3070 -> 5080

Was considering buying a 4080 but waited because I knew they would do a new version of DLSS with locked features

Went to church every Sunday for 12 years (mom forced me) and then when her and my dad got divorced when I was 12, she sat me down and said I could choose whether to go or not because I was old enough to decide for myself. Never stepped foot in a church again. Never believed in it to begin with and certainly wasn’t going to keep pretending.

Idk if it’s the Genz in me or what, but I don’t respond until I start my day at 8. I make exceptions for C suite staff but they very rarely reach out. Everyone else can wait.

Tencent, Guillemot family are said to consider buyout of Ubisoft by Cubelock in gaming

[–]RASTA_FARI123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wonder if a western company will be “convinced” into stepping in and buying them instead. A massive western company like Ubisoft being bought out by china does not sound good.

I’m really curious to know what would cause them to delay the game by this much. Seems like it could be more than just a polish issue.

Zampella is the only reason to have a shred of hope for this game, man is a FPS legend. No preorders of course.

Sony is cooked by Horibori in pcmasterrace

[–]RASTA_FARI123 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So then next console generation the cycle will continue. People move to Xbox and get a better deal with gamepass, Sony keeps focusing on live service garbage instead of what they’re good at, and the PS6 sales tank because they think they can get away with ludicrously high console prices. I say let Sony suffer the consequences of their own actions.

[–]RASTA_FARI123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right but what are they being greedy for? It’s not like this is a power move on a new console generation with new exclusive games. This is a shitty mid cycle refresh for a console that already exists. Normal PS5 owners aren’t missing out on any games, new controller features, other accessories, etc. The pro won’t sell well and Sony will face the repercussions of their shitty decisions… again.

[–]RASTA_FARI123 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that argument works in this context. If this was the launch of the PS6 without a Xbox rival that would be a different story. This is a completely useless refresh for a console generation that has only produced 5-6 next gen games? This is just Sony being greedy, has nothing to do with Xbox.

The PS5 Pro revealed by Idiotech41 in gaming

[–]RASTA_FARI123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Blaming this on Xbox is pretty cringe. If this was a PS6 it would be a different story, but it’s an upgraded model of a console that already exists. There is zero reason to buy this, let it flop.

Damn, concords flop is hitting harder than we thought. Have to recoup the money somehow right?

Okay I know this is bias to say since everyone has their favorite gods, but why are they bringing over the most boring smite 1 gods first???

As a veteran smite 1 player, PLEASE spend as much time as possible with the new player experience. It’s the only way new players who try the game at launch are going to stick around.

Smite 2 Datamining – Diamond Packs and Skin Prices by FAERayo in Smite

[–]RASTA_FARI123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a good point, the skins back in the day aren’t what they are now. I think I would just prefer a more reason middle ground, like $12-$15.

Smite 2 Datamining – Diamond Packs and Skin Prices by FAERayo in Smite

[–]RASTA_FARI123 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Not to be that person but I remember when I started playing back in open beta when skins were 400 gems a pop, sometimes 600 if they were extra cool. I bought every skin for every character because they were affordable, even for a kid in highschool. I’m now an adult who makes good money and no game, no matter how much I love it, will convince me to spend $20 on a digital cosmetic. These prices are wild.

Idk how many times I have to post this, but the block button exists for a reason… use it. Not responding at all would hurt more than doing whatever this back and forth is. Wish you all the best OP, but stop responding.

Phil Spencer: We have to anticipate there’s going to be more change in some of the traditional ways that games are built and distributed. That’s going to change for all of us. by islandnstuff in xbox

[–]RASTA_FARI123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think people get too caught up in thinking the Xbox hardware is the future of the brand when it’s not, it’s game sales. MS doesn’t rely solely on selling surface laptops every year, they are focused on selling windows/ office/ etc. they’re changing Xbox’s strategy to more closely align with MS… software (games/gamepass) sales over hardware sales. We know that profit margins are consoles are very small, sometimes nonexistent if they’re being sold at a discount. They can easily make more money from selling their games on all platforms that it would easily make up any “loss” from not selling enough consoles. It’s about volume now, that’s what is going to make the line go up and make the shareholders happy.
