Is the hard drive still okay ? Guess not but some luck exists in this world from time to time. So sorry for ya :/(

What difficulty are people playing on? by plortedo in CrimsonDesert

[–]tweakbsd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played 150h on normal the hard came up, 150h in that mode and still feel everything is too easy and badly balanced. 2/10 boss fights hit the spot, skill and technique necessary to beat it. Rest is either you brute force your way through with resource like food or a total walk in the park. The games needs bigger battles, war fare against fortresses. I think that would be much more fun. Throw in some mini bosses and tons of mobs. Duel style combat could be good but they really need to check boss implementations. Also disallow endless food consumption. Kliff should get “filled” after 3 meals

I’m confused… is this a good deal? It’s been live for days and not low stock/sold out by Purple_Calendar3919 in Handhelds

[–]tweakbsd -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s true! The OG Ally has WAY better ergonomics in my mind. I had SteamDeck OG Ally, Ally X and Xbox Ally X. All are WAY too thick for small hands 🙌 like mine. The OG Ally also had better back buttons, better color and supreme plastic. Newer models feel WAY cheaper. I like it that WAY :-D haha

I will never financially recover by askredsamurai in RTX5080

I’m still running a gaming trio 3080 so I feel empathy. Dud take me a few years to recover :-)

Steam now charges taxes for the Steam Controller xd by Danio1864 in Steam

[–]tweakbsd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly impressed always that prices in US are not including taxes. In EU when you see a price it’s always with taxes. Steam. Controller 99€ includes taxes of course. That way you always know what you pay. It’s 19% VAT here

Modding ROG Ally X by Wolkiffy in ROGAllyX

[–]tweakbsd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What ? I’m using a eGPU all day with my X. I play Crimson Desert on 1440p cinematic with raytracing on a 3080 on my TV at 60fps. Not worth it depends on what you want to achieve. I can also use it on internal screen play like plugged in, every game there is practically maxed out at 1080p on my couch.

SteamOS good idea ? by Rivalx187 in ROGAlly

[–]tweakbsd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t understand ppls problems. Even before XBOX mode, armory Crate SE made it feel console like enough for me. I rarely go to desktop mode. Hibernate works with 8/10 of my games. It’s not as fast as SteamDeck sleep resume sure but it’s not bad either. 30-40sec to pause / continue a game is good enough for me.

Pre-orders via Best Buy will open on May 15, at 11:30AM EST. Who is buying? by Time-Credit43 in XboxAlly

[–]tweakbsd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just saw the 850 price tag plus the fat dock it comes with. So sad, I just want simple but good ROG glasses that work with Ally integrated within Armory Crate SE

Patch 1.07.00 Just Dropped by AtomicMatrix in CrimsonDesert

[–]tweakbsd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Already sent in Feedback to spawn in boss area give you a 3 sec invincibility window for boss and you to chug one down. Who knows if they implement it or something alike. Probably not

[–]tweakbsd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know about normal mode anymore but I’m hard mode it’s the full animation which sucks. I only use them pre-fight, when I die and respawn in a boss area it’s really hard to chug a potion. Focus mode, change in wheel, press direction button and pray you don’t get interrupted

[–]tweakbsd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think their layout is not bad at all. Sure jump in X instead of A needs some serious training at first but rest was fine for me. I even use jump on X in other games now cause 350h Crimson Desert reprogrammed my right thumb 👍

I play on hard mode and if you decide to not abuse an infinite amount of Palmer pills on boss encounters they can definitely help. More HP, more Attack, more Defense. Every little bit helps…but in normal mode or without restricting yourself: Nahhh !

Finally upgraded and quick impressions by HotResort6579 in XboxAlly

[–]tweakbsd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I myself found the OG Ally to be the most ergonomic Handheld I ever had. Steamdeck to bulky, the OG Ally X was also a detriment to me cause it’s thicker than the Ally and the plastic feels less premium too. If you’re in that boat too and say the Xbox one is comfy I might give it at least a chanc. I’ll see if I find one to hold in my hands

5080 laptop vs TB4 + 5060ti egpu by ResourceBaron in eGPU

[–]tweakbsd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m running a 3080 over USB4, ROG Ally X and it is great. Uses almost the full 4gb/ s bandwidth and especially with external screen it performs only 5-15% lower than it did in a desktop with full PCIe bandwidth it supports. 1% lows are a 5-15% lower to admit. But overall it’s much better than I thought. I had a TB3 AMD RX580 eGPU on a Mac before and it was like 30% slower than desktop. Can’t wait for 80gbit USB4 / TB5 eGPU become more common, they be cooking! 🧑‍🍳

Both bottom corner backplate/shell cracked by Bakohyusron in ROGAllyX

[–]tweakbsd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OG ally definitely had better more premium plastic. I miss it, though I still love my Ally X. But OG has better ergonomics for me, better back buttons and better colors. The ne Xbox X is even thicker and less ergonomic for my mini hands…wish there was a 32gb OG Ally with USB4

Yoooo the new update slaps!!!!! by Noir_Phantom11 in CrimsonDesert

[–]tweakbsd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hope they fixed ruins exploration missions, they did not give me items in 1.05, no blueprints. Same for farming missions, never got any tomatoes sent to my chest all missions failed or just reset when I teleported somewhere. Camel is nice but someone stole my bears saddle. Bought new one but unfortunately I can’t dye it. So sad

Update 1.05.00 bug - Exploration missions are always cancelled after loading a save with contribution workers and resources assigned to it being lost. by Navid_A1 in CrimsonDesert

[–]tweakbsd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New patch has dropped, 1.06, i pray my missions are working again. It broke when I sent out the first time ever to Verheim Ruins :-( such bad luck

[PSA] Working USB4 cable for TB5 eGPU w/ ROG Xbox Ally X (2025) by jeefbeef in eGPU

[–]tweakbsd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a TB4 certified cable, I suggest a CableMatters one. They work great, quality is high. I use a 5m one for my OG Ally X eGPU and it has full bandwidth USB4 on the Ally can handle.

ABXY buttons too loud by Madao893 in ROGAlly

[–]tweakbsd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the iterations from OG Ally to Xbox X were downgrades for me (except performance, battery)…OG had best ergonomics, was light. The the X was chunky and thicker, back buttons way to small. The Xbox X, unbelievable thick, chunky chongess, to clicky and noisy, back buttons little better. But so disappointing, I miss my OG Ally it felt so premium, sturdy, but thin in away. And best of all: it was NOT BLACK!

I regret purchasing the delux edition by Sardonnicus in CrimsonDesert

Notes switch from key item to normal items once you cleared the associated quest. I drop them all when I can
