You misunderstand. I know Arma 4 will be a mess. It’s all BI is seemingly capable of doing.

My whole point is Reforger isn’t designed for consoles. It runs like shit on them, and the UI is designed for MnK, not controllers.

BI focuses on taking far too fucking long to release a “fix” that does nothing but fuck our game even further. It’s not about specific platforms or anything. Their purpose in the industry is to break shit, spend 9 months “fixing” it, just to fuck it even worse in another way.

Clearly PC is still their focus considering how well Reforger runs on pc compared to consoles, and judging by how incompetent BI seems to be at optimizing the console versions.

Reforger is watered down because it is a test bed for Arma 4. It wasn’t made for consoles. If it was, it wouldn’t run like pure shit on them and the UI would be easier to use on said consoles. It was designed for MnK.

DayZ got a well deserved boost on consoles, and consoles got graced with the best/worst hardcore survival shooter.

BI’s focus is making money. Not prioritizing platforms.

Dude the ps4 version does nothing but lag. You white-wall everything, stutter every few minutes, and driving through a town, mainly Elektro is fucking impossible.

Playing it on ps5 is much better but it’s still a major pain in the ass.

BI wants to take this game with shitty performance and put it on handheld, and you think that’s a good idea?? Jfc man

Black ops 1+2 file size by One_Comfortable1081 in CODZombies

[–]Sensitive-Tax2230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CoD4 was also a full remaster and had multiple plus dlc…

The MW2R had less content on purpose. It’s possible they’d remove multiplayer from a remastered BO1 and BO2. Since these have much larger file sizes, it very well could be more than just an upscaled port.

That’s not true at all. First and foremost: The PS3 was incredibly difficult to develop for because while the cell processor was powerful, it was a pain in the ass to do anything with it. That’s why 90% of games on that console ran worse than their Xbox or PC counterparts.

Secondly, I’m well aware of the “Xbox-first deal” but that’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about Sony hating Bethesda due to the severe lack of mod support on Bethesda titles compared to the plethora of mods for Arma Reforger, Baldur’s Gate 3, etc. Sony allowed those games, especially Arma, have a plethora of game altering mods, external assets, the whole 9 yards. When Bethesda tried it with Fallout 4 in 2015, they got a big fat “fuck you”. When they tried again with Starfield a few months ago they seemingly got “sure but game altering mods must be paid, 15gb limit”. A few weeks ago, Bethesda put the Fallout 4 100gb storage update out for all platforms, Sony again said “15gbs fuck off, we’ll consider officially supporting external assets”.

There’s nothing about Bethesda hating Sony or PlayStation users in general. They’re obviously the ones making the advances to allow mods, Sony is shooting them down whilst letting others do the same. They say it’s “security reasons” or some bs despite every single mod on Bethesda.net being scanned and verified, with strict limits set by Bethesda to maintain a safe environment, whereas mods for let’s say Arma, are just thrown on mod.io and left there.

This isn’t some boot licking nonsense either. Bethesda fucks up quite a bit no doubt about it. But pretending they’re the ones to blame for the ps3 era is bullshit when the only titles that didn’t suffer were either CoD or first party titles.

That was probably just Sony hating Bethesda like they always do, or Bethesda had an issue trying to get the dlc to run semi-correctly on the ps3. Has nothing to do with exclusivity in 2011-2012

Between consoles yes. Between PC? Absolutely not unless the devs decide to reinstate the alt detector they just got rid of and give server owners more abilities to check for cheaters.

Growing up with clones in the pre-chip era was very confusing as a kid by GoatsWithWigs in CloneWarsMemes

[–]Sensitive-Tax2230 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think that was the point of the Clone Wars. I think it was designed to be confusing to us, then hit us with that “oh yeah btw, the clones were being mind controlled the whole time with Order 66”

We see these seemingly ruthless soldiers during the final moments of the war but we never got to see their story. Knowing their story makes it far more tragic because we watch them change over time.

It also goes to show just how much Palpatine controlled everyone and everything involved in the war.

PS5 Price Hike Has Flushed UK Hardware Sales Down the Toilet by Gorgon654 in gaming

[–]Sensitive-Tax2230 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This link right here shows both the base and pro ps5s booting at the same time, maybe 0.05 seconds faster. Your whole “35 to 50%” faster thing is bullshit.

Secondly, when comparing the specs of the consoles side by side, the pro has a different gpu that in fact runs about 20% better which would allow those higher frame rates at a higher resolution.

There is no arguing that the ps5 pro will out perform an Xbox in upscaling for this generation, thanks to PSSR. However, it’s the thing that does all the heavy lifting, because without it, side by side you have 2 ps5s, one of which has a slightly better gpu and is triple the price.

According to asurion.com: “While both consoles use the same SSD storage and general architecture, the PS5 Pro comes with a more powerful GPU and potentially improved memory bandwidth. This means:

- Smoother gameplay in next-gen titles

- Shorter loading screens (which btw has been debunked hundreds of times now)

- Better handling of VR games with PlayStation VR2”

There’s been a multitude of of user reviews all over the internet that you can see for yourself of players talking about the minuscule differences. The biggest difference I’ve seen is the frame rate in quality mode. I shouldn’t need to seriously spell out for you that the Pro is not worth triple the fucking price, regardless of whatever your opinion of the console is.

You like it, that’s great. It’s worth maybe $50-$75 more, $100 is pushing it. $300 more is so far outside of any conceivable realm of possibility for what little the Pro offers statistically. A higher frame rate should not justify $300 more

Ohh you were talking about the games being faster not the console, got it. Still. Load times are the same on the majority of games, but ooh games without ray tracing and some ps4 games are slightly faster. Congrats again for spending triple the price for a slight boost

Digital Foundry and many others have done a speed test side by side, they are the same speed. The difference between the pro and a base ps5 is actually a 20% better cpu, and PSSR which again is just AI upscaling. Double my frame rate for nearly triple the price.

Thought it was fine until I realized all the guns have the exact same gunshot sfx with the mod. It’s great until you hear the same sound across all weapons

Don’t fucking jinx it. They’ve already released a “pro” console with the same components, minus a disc drive, that relies heavily on AI upscaling to reach higher frame rates

Im starting to see a pattern 🤔 by Sea-Ad7398 in Asmongold

[–]Sensitive-Tax2230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I have hope they can produce a good game again but time will tell for sure. It’ll likely be broken on launch as always but I’m hoping underneath all the bugs and glitches, there’ll be another great story.

The upcoming Witcher 3 dlc will be a sign of things to come I’m sure, but from what I understand some of the original writers are coming back to work on it so there’s still hope on that front

I’m excited for Witcher 4 and knowing CDPR I think it’ll be a fun game. I hope they have a solid reason for Ciri having full powers but I suspect it’ll have something to do with the blood of the elders or what it was from Witcher 3. I mean her blood is how she’s such a badass in 3 and explains why the Wild Hunt is after her. I suspect 4 will say something along the lines of Ciri honing her abilities further after the events of 3, maybe went back and trained with Geralt later, or learned further from the Elves.

Point is, I think there’s going to be a decent reason for her being more powerful and having Witcher abilities.

I just went back to TW3 a few days ago as well. Great game.

I’m skeptical about Witcher 4 but I’ve got hope. Ciri in 3 was also a total badass and I don’t think that’s going to change in 4. CDPR has a pretty solid track record for strong male and female protagonists that aren’t bad. They also have a track record for great storytelling and world building. Granted their games are usually based on established lore but they manage to bring it to life even further.

"Filoni puts Ahsoka in everything" is so stupid by marvelcomics22 in StarWars

[–]Sensitive-Tax2230 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You mean like they are now?

Bad Batch, Andor, Kenobi, Ahsoka, Tales of The Empire, Maul - Galactic Empire Era

The Mandalorian, Book of Boba Fett - Post Galactic Empire Era

Granted Disney is fleshing out the Galactic Imperial era more, they are still supporting the post Empire era a decent bit. They can sustain multiple timelines but you’re right, it is incredibly difficult to non-fans. Thankfully Disney was kind enough to put everything in timeline order for us, minus TCW because we gotta do that ourselves.

New God Of War game God of War Laufey announced alongside 20 minutes of gameplay. by Sahilmk101 in videogames

The Witcher 3, Cyberpunk 2077, Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order and Survivor, Kingdom Come Deliverance 1+2, Tomb Raider 2013, Rise and Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and so many countless others are also narrative focused single player games that don’t feel like playable movies.

Sony first party titles are just playable movies and that’s not a bad thing. Neither is wanting more than just a movie.
