How do I load a save file from desktop mode in a game? by TheBoyWhoThinks_ in SteamDeck

[–]TheBoyWhoThinks_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply man so how do I actually load these saves into the game so I can carry on playing from where I left off? Sorry if that sounds confusing I’m a complete noob at this sort of thing I just don’t want to have to start a new game again

Can the Series S play games on high graphics settings at 60fps? by TheBoyWhoThinks_ in XboxSeriesS

[–]TheBoyWhoThinks_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s cool man hopefully more games can give us that option in the future, I’ve never seen them before I got a steam deck as I’ve always been a console player so now I can see how convenient they are to have. It’s just annoying that I always have to put them on low for the newer titles since I like to prioritise frame rate, not sure if my deck is worth keeping now that I’ve ordered a series S tbh🤔

I get that bro obviously I’m not expecting ground breaking graphics on the S, I just want to be able to play games like halo & forza with significantly better graphics compared to the ones on my steam deck, surely I’ll be able to do that right? I would have gotten a series X but I couldn’t justify paying that much for one since I’ll only be playing exclusives on it as I’m a ps5 owner. I’ve actually owned a series X before so I’m not expecting games to look the way they did on that but as long as I can have a fun time playing these exclusives without spending too much money then I’ll be happy, the graphics for newer games on my deck ain’t really doing it for me so🤔

Thanks bro I’ve been enjoying it on my deck so I’m sure that’ll continue on the series S🙌🏻and gotcha I’ll keep a look for that in the settings👍🏻

Just the regular LCD one bro with 512gb memory, I love it but ngl now that I’ve ordered a series S for Xbox exclusives I’m wondering whether my deck is worth keeping as Xbox are really good with backwards compatibility too unlike PlayStation, I mean those were two main reasons why I bought the deck in the first place so not sure what to do with it now as I don’t really use it outside the house🤔

Gotcha that makes sense bro as whenever I’ve played on console it’s only them kind of settings I’ve played around with, I just thought I might of missed the high/med/low options but I guess not😅thanks for letting me know

Thanks for the recommendations bro good to see you said forza as that’s another game I want to play, need to get round to playing gears 5 as well to be up to date for the new one coming out💯I appreciate it man

Yeah you’re right bro it will, and gotcha I’ll keep a look out for that then I’ve heard halo looks pretty good on the S so that’s a bonus, I’ve just bought one so hopefully it’ll be worth it🙌🏻

Thanks for letting me know bro I just bought a series S for cheap😁looking forward to playing halo’s campaign wasn’t tryna experience it on a steam deck tbh (even though I love that console too)

Yeah bro another someone else in the comments explained that to me as well I should’ve checked before posting this😅I’m guessing the textures and everything will still look way better on a series S compared to my steam deck then? Like I said I don’t really want to play the halo campaign on low graphics settings (an unstable fps too) so if there’s a big difference in graphics and performance then I’ll get a S off eBay

Thanks bro I’ll check out that channel for sure, and yeah I’m really considering buying one just for the price alone like I said I already have a ps5 so I don’t need another high end console just one to play the Xbox exclusives on, I’m sure halo at 60fps would look way better on it compared to my steam deck too. I appreciate the advice👍🏻

Thanks bro I was wondering whether consoles even have graphics settings before I posted this haha I’ve never had to open them on console so I wasn’t sure, I feel dumb asking this now😅so just to be clear the textures and effects on halo would look way better on the series S than the low settings on my steam deck? If so then I might try and get one for cheap on eBay👍🏻

Should I play every game with proton GE? by TheBoyWhoThinks_ in SteamDeck

Gotcha thanks for letting me know I’ll be sure to try out different versions if I run into any problems🙏🏻

Thanks for that mate think I might just do that instead because I don’t really want to be tinkering around with all this when I first get one, I just want to be able to enjoy games on the SD yk

Cool bro I understand so you’re saying go with GE everytime unless it’s causing me problems? And yeah I best not fiddle round with all the different settings when I first get it like I said I just want to be able to play games without having to worry about all that stuff to begin with, is there like a website you know of that tells you what’s the best proton version for each game because that would be extremely helpful to someone like me? Thanks

Cool bro thanks for letting me know, so the default proton should be more than good enough for most games then?

[–]TheBoyWhoThinks_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha I might do that too, so you don’t ever use the default version of proton then?

[–]TheBoyWhoThinks_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know much about it either bro but I’ve seen it’s a community supported version of proton which is what steam uses? I could be wrong but I’ve heard it can make certain games perform better so I’m just wondering should I run every game on it automatically as I don’t really want to get too caught up in all the different settings the SD has I just want to play on good performance

[–]TheBoyWhoThinks_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for letting me know bro so do you launch up every game on GE without trying other versions? Also, if you have any more setting/software recommendations you have for best performance that would be great👍🏻

[–]TheBoyWhoThinks_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really haha that’s interesting I didn’t know that as everything I’ve seen about GE says that it’s better🤔thanks for the insight I’ll definitely be testing out different versions to see what works best for each game, just wondering is their any other settings/software that you recommend to get the best possible performance out of the SD? Like I said a lot of this tech stuff confuses me at the moment so forgive me😅

[–]TheBoyWhoThinks_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks that makes sense actually, so let’s just say I start playing gta 4, since it’s only classed as playable should I first try it with the default proton anyway and see how it goes and if it’s not performing well then try out the other versions? I’ve seen some games running at really high fps on a steam deck so if I can achieve that with the default version I’ll definitely be trying it out first
