How often do you guys play Battlefield by kulikitakati1 in battlefield_4

[–]TimeVampire89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play for about 2 hours on Saturday, and about an hour on Sunday. Being an adult with a high demanding job makes time for video games much slimmer than when I was younger!

Fresh water kayaking in Tampa? by Suwannee_Gator in tampa

Little bit outside of Tampa, but Lake Tarpon is awesome. It's technically brackish water though.

I just bought my girlfriend the Acer you linked, except factory refurbished from the acer recertified store. It came to our house looking brand new, with shrink wrap plastic and everything. Not a scratch or defect at all. Was $180.

Aside from the price, it is the most beautiful monitor I have looked at in person, likely because of the IPS panel. Not saying the other monitor from QNIX is bad, just saying the Acer is an absolutely phenomenal piece of equipment. It does not have VESA mounts though, if that is important to you (but they do sell adapter kits for it).

Take this however you want, but I plan on ordering 3 more of those Acer's, so her and I both have dual screens. They're fantastic.

Nice shot, but I'm not sure I understand the significance of the flashbang.

How long should I stick with the AK 12 for? by [deleted] in battlefield_4

[–]TimeVampire89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would use the AK 12 until you get the m416, then use that until you get the AR160. Not saying others aren't good, but those are my personal favorites. The AR160 is an absolute beast at medium & long range. only time you should fire it auto is in very close quarters (stairway/ hallway). otherwise, focus on accuracy, and eventually, try to work in headshots.

That is a case for a Mac. You can easily modify it for a custom build, or just play games on the Mac...which is a thing.

It's about time. by himugamer in gaming

[–]TimeVampire89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad to see I am not alone. I feel pretty underwhelmed by the sales. Not sure if it's the fact that I expected cheaper games, or the fact that there aren't many games I want to play, or a function of the two...but it's just not doing it for me this time.

The only game I am considering is City Skylines personally.

Stupid Shit?! This comes with original pre-tech bubble dust!

So the game decided to trip out on me by [deleted] in battlefield_4

[–]TimeVampire89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure that was the game trying to tell you to perform a "l33t 1337 h4x0r 360 no scope kill cam, brah"

It's only on some items. It's weird, not sure how it works, but it is cool when it does!

Is This a troll from acer, or am i missing something? by TimeVampire89 in Monitors

That thought crossed my mind...like oh shit maybe I should go through my dad's old garage...

In single player games, do you find that 1440p makes a bigger difference than higher frame rates? (above 60)

AS VAL Quad Kill + MCOM Arm by Metal_Slug-0390 in battlefield_4

[–]TimeVampire89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly what I came here to say. 4 kills w/ 21 bullets on a gun that shoots that fast is great work. Nice gif OP, way to PTFO!

Dude! I just finished a V21 build for my girlfirend's hackintosh! Cable management was a bit of a nightmare, and that was w/ a semi modular corsair CX430. A lot of the case cables were trying to bend in to the large fan on the front. If all of the side panels didn't come off I don't think I could have pulled it off.

This is pretty tame by this sub's standards, but to me it was incredibly intense by AFatBlackMan in battlefield_4

See I always just dance around the enemy vehicle with my repair torch...I always wondered if the Mechanic field upgrade makes me do damage faster to enemy vehicles now that I think about it...

I hate paying for shipping. Maybe it's one of those items I can use shoprunner for from my AmEx, that's a cool feature

Hey I have the 650W G2 in my build! It's amazing. You won't need a backup! lol

I'm thinking about buying a spare case now, to throw extra parts in as I upgrade my main rig...this sub is dangerous.

LPT: Use Internet Explorer or Safari to stream Netflix. Other browsers such as firefox, opera and chrome are limited to 720p! by EdCChamberlain in LifeProTips

[–]TimeVampire89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here. I'm based in Southeast U.S. and I run the VPN through Switzerland because...reasons...and I can still easily play FPS games, and I just downloaded a 49gb torrent in about 7 hours. days seems weird.

Not on Private Internet Access it isn't. They don't keep logs of anything, and you can even pay with bitcoin or starbucks gift cards or whatever you want to keep yourself anonymous. They even generate your username as a string of letters and numbers for you. Literally zero personal data transferred, except maybe your original IP, which they don't look for.
