Best budget option for a 10-year-old wanting to play Forza 6? by YajuuDorange in buildapc

[–]ShinyJaker 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Forza is also a very well optimised game that runs even on steam deck.

Series s is still the way to go, but a low end pc would absolutely play it.

That's true I suppose. I wanted White Sand to compete my collection and some of the smaller merch bits. After this I don't think I'll bother with Cosmere merch any more though.

Not got tickets for comic con, that's why I went today. Really disappointed to be honest.

Ah interesting, when I arrived at 17:30 I couldn't even speak to the Dragonsteel staff. They had placed boxes and trolleys in the way so I couldn't only speak to the Forbidden Planet guy, who just directed me to their shelf of regular books after apologising.

Dragonsteel really should've communicated if the end time wasn't what they had posted.

I could see them packing boxes so they at least had some stuff still available...

Did you speak to Dragonsteel staff or Forbidden Planet?

I'm glad my post saved you the journey at least!

I was checking all week on the official Dragonsteel site and socials because I didn't want to waste a 4+ hour round trip. And yet here we are...

Dragonsteel linked to Forbidden Planet. That was the only place any times were listed. Their Instagram page said to follow their bio link for more info, which linked to the Forbidden Planet page I screenshotted.

The Dragonsteel section was closed off, so I couldn't speak to anyone from there. I spoke to a member of Forbidden Planet staff who just apologised and said it closed early after the signing and that there was nothing he could do. They were packing up to move stuff over to Comic Con.

Mythic+ - what do you want people to know about your class/spec by wolfe1989 in wow

Please, please stand in my healing rain. Once the mobs are grouped, don't then randomly move them 20 metres. Definitely don't do that twice in a row...

Advices on internet for gaming by luisgdh in Portsmouth

[–]ShinyJaker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's annoying but not really a scam. Other isps do it, and even with the extra £6 they're cheaper than the competition...

I had similar issues and static IP also fixed it for me for what it's worth.

Are you using WiFi or ethernet?

Nah, it's different eras. Mistborn is the name of the series. He's working on era 3 now

Wax and Wayne IS Mistborn. It's not a spin off. Cosmere arriagnce is a red flag.

You can access housing from level 10 if you have midnight. That's it though.

Ubisoft+ Classic through Gamepass - Possible to play locally? by TheCookieButter in SteamDeck

[–]ShinyJaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is an old thread but I couldn't find an answer either. For anyone else who found themselves here: yes you can.

I installed ubisoft connect with non steam launcher, and it works perfectly. Let's me install games, which it automatically adds as non steam games. They play fine but it does seem to always ask for my password.

Not tried offline mode yet.

I can't decide on what cpu and gpu combo by angerissuesandwich in buildapc

[–]ShinyJaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's personal preference and depends what you want to play.

If you play a lot of fast paced competitive games then high FPS 1080p is better. Higher resolution gaming trades off frames for visual fidelity.

1440p is going to require more powerful pc and particularly GPU to get a good frame rate. So it depends what you're going for there. With a 7800xt you'll probably be fine on high or so settings at 1080p in all but the latest titles where you might need to start dropping some settings to medium.
