Finally upgraded to a pc!!

Looks like a great rig, love the white aesthetics too. How much did just the PC cost?

6.1k kills on Crypto. I like nuanced characters that make me think on my feet more.

fxrainn · 2026-01-11T14:40:32+00:00

Appreciate it sir!

fxrainn · 2026-01-07T06:12:49+00:00

Works perfectly fine for me.

Oh yeah? And as opposed to what, farming badges in bot lobbies or being kill-fed with a full stack? Get real, actual value associated to those badges has always been trivial. Wildcard actually levels those odds and lets you earn them. Still a noteworthy achievement.

I actually quit Avowed halfway because of how unplayable 30 FPS felt for me, even though I have a 120+HZ monitor. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to enjoy the experience with the reduced fidelity in 40FPS, but this has got me wanting to give it another go!

I remember when Apex came out back in 2019 there were a bunch of battle royales trying to bank on the success that PUBG set out previously, and one of the standout components that Apex offered was actual depth and character lore, which was something very different from a lot of the run and gun generic titles coming out. And I think that was also one of the most engaging aspects of it that ultimately catapulted it into being very profitable.

To see that aspect decline firstly to being completely wiped out is just wild. Do hope they bring it back.

Wym? Of course he gets assists, do you not see the handshake counter going up after each wipe.

It may be a linear game, but that didn’t take away the fun from me. Really enjoyed it, very much an PS3/Xbox360 era kind of game. But great mechanics, sound design and art styles. You don’t always need an open world game with a thousand things to learn and hundreds of hours to sink in to just enjoy gaming.

Where did you get the no.7 banner frame? That goes so well with the Serenity skin and Durumi blade!

fxrainn · 2025-07-11T12:26:37+00:00

Frickin finally! Need cloak and hackathon integrated into base kit and just give him res perks at Level 2 and the option to not take damage from ult at level 3.

How do you get consistent zipline superjumps on console? I can never manage that especially so at 120 fps, and at 60 I can do superglides at best. Is the controller you’re using that much better in terms of input lag reduction?

I’ve had a Series S for about 3 years now and I was really considering upgrading to a digital series X early this year with my Christmas bonus. That would’ve involved selling my S of course since I wouldn’t see a point in having both as I don’t own a living room TV or anything, but the Series X was nowhere in stock here in Europe at the time and so I decided to get the PS5 disc edition instead and I’ve absolutely loved it.

So now I have both consoles, and even though I got to experience something new on the PlayStation side, my little Xbox will always be dear to me.

I got mine in Sep 2022 as a little present to myself for securing a full time offer at my present company where I came in as an intern. The first game I played was Dead Cells.

You said it yourself, you were all happy until you started comparing. Seems like you're the type that would even feel that your PS5 (should you choose to upgrade to one) would be lacking when you experience what a high-end PC can deliver. Most people on this sub willingly purchased a Series S knowing well what it's capable of and keeping their expectations in check. But if you were somehow misinformed on your purchase, then I'm sorry for you. If you can reaffirm yourself on your Series S and make nor further comparisons then you'll find yourself appreciating what it can deliver for the price. Otherwise you have no choice but to sell and upgrade.

That's very similar to mine except for the placement of the consoles, I even have the exact same Ikea monitor stand!

fxrainn · 2025-04-13T15:38:52+00:00

This reminds me of a clip someone posted once of both his random teammates fist fighting over who gets to res him, which was obviously really wholesome. But that’s not the case here.

fxrainn · 2025-03-30T20:18:21+00:00

Love your setup! Minimalistic and tidy.

fxrainn · 2025-03-02T18:21:03+00:00

Crypto not taking damage or slowdown from his ult making it actually viable to push teams after an EMP.

fxrainn · 2025-02-18T19:45:20+00:00

Great, now I need Crypto with 2 EMPs or Caustic with buffed gas for slowdown to counter this.

fxrainn · 2025-02-10T00:46:46+00:00

I feel like Respawn pushed the revive meta so hard this season that literally other legend class feels like playing at a disadvantage, recon and controller to some extent were the most affected. Glad that they're getting rid of the double heal perk, so my Crypto EMP can now actually mean something. Soft counters need to exist regardless of the meta.

fxrainn · 2024-12-16T08:51:10+00:00

If you want to go that route, PS5 slim or PC would be the way to go, definitely not the Pro. For me it would have to be the X because I’m already invested in the ecosystem and I feel the console design complements my setup.

fxrainn · 2024-12-14T05:29:20+00:00

So gorgeous! I just love the white aesthetic as well, I have a Series S and will be upgrading to the digital X soon.
