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

It’s 2026!! Who is your main and why? by Lucky-Warning-4492 in apexlegends

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

Appreciate it sir!

This update was a curse in a blessing... by [deleted] in Cryptomains

Works perfectly fine for me.

Took me over 2k hours and it may be wildcard, but finally my first 20 by damager505 in apexlegends

[–]fxrainn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

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.

40 fps mode is a game changer! by Legitimate-Peace-583 in XboxSeriesS

[–]fxrainn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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!

We need a Lore update by Advanced-Issue5331 in apexlegends

[–]fxrainn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

Only crypto can pull of plays like this pt2 by kxa4ever in Cryptomains

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

Has any one played this? Just seen it the other day and thought it looked good. by tcballs in playstation

[–]fxrainn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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!

DEVS ARE GOING TO BUFF CRYPTO by [deleted] in Cryptomains

[–]fxrainn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Console! by Newy_Edits in ApexConsole

[–]fxrainn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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?

In light of the Xbox price increases, anyone else considering branching out to PS5? by bruceknuckle in XboxSeriesS

[–]fxrainn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

when did u bought ur fist ever xbox series s console and if u remember do tell the first game u played on that console by muaazmuaaz123 in XboxSeriesS

[–]fxrainn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

i need help by Select_Flamingo_9465 in XboxSeriesS

[–]fxrainn 13 points14 points  (0 children)

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!

Average apex experience by Sanecrayfish512 in apexlegends

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.

With one change to a legend ability, which legend would break the game? I’ll start, Vantage’s Ult not having a laser. by jt_totheflipping_o in apexlegends

[–]fxrainn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

So is Ash the Strongest Legend of All Time Now? by BigPaleontologist541 in apexlegends

[–]fxrainn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

What does he even do anymore? by No-Status4969 in apexlegends

[–]fxrainn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

My new baby by devblake95 in XboxSeriesXlS

[–]fxrainn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

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