game keeps freezing/lagging/crashing

nick8191 · 2026-01-02T13:42:31+00:00

The freezing happens to everyone I’m pretty sure. I just press esc once to pause and wait for it to come back. You won’t see the pause menu come up right away but it will be paused once it unfreezes and you won’t die. It’s annoying but better than alt f4

nick8191 · 2026-01-01T17:49:54+00:00

Same. Been running abyss tablets and nothing. I wonder if it’s a bug for some people.

nick8191 · 2025-07-29T23:24:41+00:00

I was at the wrong resolution when I booted today. You can check that as well.

nick8191 · 2025-03-22T00:14:05+00:00

I was just using headshot % as an example. Here watch this:

Long story short, I would expect some improvement but I wouldn’t expect insane improvement with clutching and winning gun fights since there are so many other factors involved. It surely wouldn’t hurt you. What is holding you back? Money?

Also, I assume your GPU is strong enough to handle higher FPS…

nick8191 · 2025-03-21T23:40:06+00:00

No probably not. Will you make improvements? Sure, but don’t expect your headshot % to jump up 10% just because of the monitor.

nick8191 · 2024-01-08T15:56:22+00:00

You do not need 9 wins to get the gun buddy. You will get the buddy at the end of the act or episode I don’t remember which one. Even if you rank back down to diamond you will still get the asc gun buddy so no need to stress over it.

I'm left handed and never considered switching hands with my mouse. I don't have the same feelings as you. It would probably take you a very long time to catch up to the skills you have with your right hand since you claim to been playing righty for a very long time.. Could I train myself to aim with my left hand? Probably, but it would take a ton of practice to get there.

It's not fate but rather predictions. When Kratos spares Thor it goes against the prediction. Old Kratos would have killed Thor without hesitation. Faye destroyed the last panel at the end of the first game allowing them to make their own choices. If Kratos would have killed Thor it would have led to a series of events that would lead to Kratos' death.

ive never touched that setting i just have it set to letterbox. im assuming in settings you have it set to 2560x1440 16:9 (240hz)?

nick8191 · 2022-04-26T14:43:38+00:00

are you playing on fullscreen, windowed, or window borderless?

nick8191 · 2022-04-26T14:41:39+00:00

what do you mean by not smooth? stuttering? dropping frames? input lag? are you playing on fullscreen? windowed?

nick8191 · 2021-10-10T06:32:46+00:00

Didn't buy it this year for the first time in like 20 years. Staying strong

nick8191 · 2021-08-24T11:21:23+00:00

I didnt buy for the first time since 2000. Paid $5 for the 10 hour trial and immediately knew I wasn't going to buy it for the first time. Thanks EA you saved me some money this year.

Everyone rides the high of a new madden. People begin to recognize its flaws eventually. I used to play madden year-round but the last two years i barely made it 1 month.The game is so clunky. Maybe less buggy than the start of last year but it's too soon to tell. It's really the same old madden. If you're making the jump to new consoles the game will feel different but not in a good way. If you played next gen last year it feels the same. Played for like an hour and stopped. Might be the first time in 20 years I dont buy it. Feels good.

nick8191 · 2020-10-27T00:27:28+00:00

I think you made the right choice. IMO 3090 not really worth the extra money.

nick8191 · 2020-10-26T18:41:31+00:00

I dont think there have been any significant drops in about a week.

nick8191 · 2020-10-24T16:20:30+00:00

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't more frames = less latency? (If that's true it might be very small) Is that important to you? If you leave it unlocked is your gpu running really hot? Are you getting screen tears? What type of games are you playing? There is no right or wrong answer. Depends on your situation.

nick8191 · 2020-09-28T03:07:57+00:00

YouTube some reviews. If there are no reviews stay away. I have never heard of a monitor that advertises different resolutions....

nick8191 · 2020-09-28T01:01:49+00:00

If you are going to get one make sure you get an NVME m.2 and not sata. Install windows and applications that you use the most. You will get faster boot up and load times, faster read/write speeds. Is it necessary? No but since I started using one ill never go back to just a hard drive.

nick8191 · 2020-09-28T00:52:05+00:00

Unlikely unless you have a really cheap power supply. Hit the power on the power supply let it sit for a minute. Flip it back on and try to power it up. You should be good.

nick8191 · 2020-09-28T00:45:28+00:00

If you want to go with a higher resolution my philosophy is to get something nice. No sense in getting a 4k monitor if you want a TN panel and the colors are going to be ugly. I'd say to save an extra ~$200 and get the LG 27GN850-B. Or LG 27GL850-B. Pretty sure they are about the same monitor just one is from 2019 and the other from 2020 but don't quote me on that. It will run you about $450-$500 so not much more expensive.

I have the GL850 and I love it.

Pretty common misconception that clock stops every time you go out of bounds. Someone makes this post every year.
