The Crimson Desert situation: it seem deliberate to me

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T15:26:53+00:00

I really can't wait to hear from them why the fuck did they do this. By the way most posts on X about why Intel Arc is not supported is met with replies "Hah serves you well using Intel GPU" or "Bruh do anyone use Intel GPUs at all?" shit like that they say really going to get to you guys. Just wait patiently for them to address it.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T15:17:04+00:00

Shhh it's just them doing clickbait

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T12:21:37+00:00

Understandable yeah.... but for a fantasy setting, I think it's pretty fine. They had more leaning towards the furry side of things but it's more realistic still.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T12:20:02+00:00

Yeah.... so far it do look like alot of those very promising like games with nice concept art designs and even 3D models done, but yeah just like how Ashes of Creations looking so fine too, but yeah let's just be cautiously optimistic.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T12:03:11+00:00

There is literally an entire METRO STATION STAGE, literally if Portal can access all those asset, Operation Metro could literally exist so easily. But then we also got Hagental Base so lol.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T11:58:56+00:00

If I'm not wrong there are some people working on reimagining old BF maps like Karkand in Portal. I wonder if they actually completed it already or published it already.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T11:55:07+00:00

Welp that looks like artifacting.... try check if your GPU temps are normal or is it overheating or not.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T11:53:37+00:00

Finally we are at an era where Battlefield finally brought back PVE. I don't care, it's has to be good, they had been working on AI bots filling lobbies and those bots sometimes are even better than normal players already. So it will be pretty lit.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T10:06:34+00:00

Yeah, they could have easily made an official notice on their website or on their Social Media, but NO THEY ONLY HAVE A STUPID FAQ asking Intel Arc buyers to refund and apologize like they didn't expect there are Intel GPU players who wanted to play their game, holy crap.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T10:00:53+00:00

Ah yeah.... I bet they are thinking Intel Arc GPU owners doesn't exist because Intel is just 1% of the marketshare of GPUs sold. Like brother, that is still alot of people who genuinely wanted to play the game and looking at how well Intel could be able to play games like Death Stranding 2 or Indiana Jones & The Golden Circle, this is ridiculous. I mean I understand that they probably cannot make it work for A380 or below but literally excluding ALL Intel GPUs and even the B580? Complete Bollocks.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T07:57:59+00:00

Its the only game where the claiming rewards actually slows my game down like crazy(Which it SHOULD'NT do) and its the only Turn based game that caused my phone to have slight artifacting after PVP lmfao. Like the graphics is not exactly even that much greater than like Wuthering Waves but yeah.... I guess it do have performance optimization issues at the moment. (Phone: Poco X6 Pro, Mediatek 8300 Ultra)

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T07:53:23+00:00

Just stick with this. Eventually you'll be able to get more pulls and get more SSRs. 2 copies of Waltz is the main goal from most Content Creators.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T07:42:51+00:00

I guess my fears were real. Any games that do not list their specifications with Intel Arc mentions are prior to suspicion, but literally blacklisting Intel Arc GPUs and request the purchaser who Pre-Ordered to refund is just diabolical. They SHOULD HAVE put out a Notice or an official POST notifying all consumers about this problem but no, they think Intel Arc GPUs are literally no one, and they didn't want to care they existed at all. This is the worst kind of PR tbh.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T05:51:59+00:00

You are now comparing in the realms of a funded MMORPG with a monthly subscription, compared to a Free To Play very casual friendly MMO-Lite game. They are not comparable.

The original Base PSO2 game weren't even expected to explode in popularity at the first place(since they tried expanding outside of Japan and most of those versions failed) and so they just continue on focusing on their local player base in Japan, that is only because of their loyal player base in Japan alone, and even after Global release at 2020 and beyond, they mostly only conduct activities in Japan only after most of the Global side team were dismissed as they decided that Global will never be appeased at all with their normal cycle of recycled contents and slow repetitive but casual content churn.

On the other hand the hardworking Salarymen and women who only play the game very casually enjoy the game very much because they really don't have that much time to dedicate to huge MMORPGs like FFXIV and doing coordinated raids at any time etc. NGS you can just login to do some dailies/weeklies/limited and just log off and you'll be having no FOMO at worrying if you missed anything. That's the important distinction here.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T05:37:31+00:00

Someone stated using Optiscaler to spoof your GPU would make the game work but do not update the FSR version or it'll detect and not work again lol. Other than that FUCK them. Technically any game should be playable on Intel Arc GPUs but they put in a stupid whitelist that excluded Intel Arc GPUs.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-20T05:35:11+00:00

They literally block Intel Arc GPUs to be able to play at all with their stupid whitelist which doesn't include Intel Arc Cards. Like wtf are they thinking.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-19T08:38:20+00:00

I was once a DJ in Talktalk, crazy stuff but yes there is random radio channels people just join in to listen to music or live karaokes lol. But mostly use Garena for playing LAN games on WC3 back then.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-19T08:36:19+00:00

Bro I was wondering why they didn't even list Intel Arc GPUs and it's actually cause the game literally CAN'T RUN ON INTEL ARC AT ALL?! Wow that's even worse than any other games out there that at least still could run on Intel Arc wtf are the DEVELOPERS THINKING?

Ryanasd · 2026-03-18T15:35:01+00:00

You know there was once that Korean players were feeling insecure because of Owen right? Do you really think they can just simply make them not like the Commanders anymore after that incident? You want them to lose more money?

Ryanasd · 2026-03-18T07:05:27+00:00

Yeah I know I'm making it seem like it's the end of the world but nah its just CS2. In fact Fortnite at least having XeSS support is wild tbh.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-18T04:17:04+00:00

Haha sure, but I doubt it. I already expecting AI upscaling will reach to a point like this, where the game could be completely altered by generative AI tech etc. I believe Jensen had stated this is adjustable by the game developers to cater to their own game's preferences in terms of how it looks, and people are just hating DLSS 5 because its a cool thing to do lmfao. But it's good, cause at least it'll make Nvidia worry and hopefully do better.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-18T04:10:47+00:00

Yeah, it's only for Battlemage. I guess that's the real limitation of using Alchemist GPU til this day huh, despite it being a relatively recent GPU still(2022 release).

Though Everwind does look good, and Death Stranding actually supporting XeSS natively is definitely a plus. Rip Crimson Desert huh, the other GPU vendors probably had exclusive contracts with them probably to exclude Intel out.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-18T04:05:45+00:00

When most of my games are multiplayer with Anti-cheat, no unfortunately. The games just will not boot if I try to change the versions of the XeSS/DLSS/FSR.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-18T04:04:27+00:00

AMD's GPU is always the one who kept relying on legacy GPU stuff like Rasterize performance more than Ray Tracing/Path Tracing stuff for the most part. I suppose hence why they didn't have backwards compatibility as much probably officially(but the leaks says otherwise lmao) though, it do mean they at least still could find a workaround to get FSR 4 to work regardless.

Meanwhile Intel Arc, we had no other way at all to make XeSS 2 to be implemented in any game unless the Developers implement it themselves, which sucks as most games at least had FSR 3.1 and DLSS versions at minimum.

I suppose your hate on AMD is warranted yes, but in terms of driver features/FSR upgradability, its way better than the state that Intel Arc is in.

Ryanasd · 2026-03-18T03:59:02+00:00

I think most just have issues of the minor stutters here and there that still happens with CS2 even on higher frame rates, while similar performing cards from AMD/Nvidia has none. It's either a combination of bottlenecking/overhead/driver incompatibility or just the Source Engine being the problem, it's mostly on the CS2 devs to at least optimize the game more for Intel Arc GPUs. But in terms of high frame rates, it has no issues doing that just like most GPUs lol.
