Opals25 posted:Man, when venturing past the level 10 capped servers I do really bad! I'm not sure what it is. If its equipment or weapons or what, but I just cant seem to get anything to connect and die really quick. It's okay. It takes a lot of getting used to the new equipment available. Not to worry though, it doesn't take too long to learn the tricks and eventually you'll be packing those toys too. The worst submarine posted:How do I equip weapons? I feel lost in the empty vastness of the menus. Look for the Customization tab, and then Weapons.

I am now officially a skidmark on the underpants of GOON! Yay! Now, from nearly ten pages back: SwitchbladeKult posted:The more I research this the more reports of driver related silliness with that NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 I find. Try this: Updated to the latest drivers after completely uninstalling the old ones. Didn't install 3D Vision support or HD audio this time around. Bordlerless made the main menu run at about 2FPS so I went back to fullscreen. I haven't had vsync on since I started having performance issues. That said, I maxed the game sans DX11 and textures and had LESS hitching, but still hitching. I turned off a lot of UE3 poo poo (motion blur, DoF, shafts, volumetrics, etc) and I have yet to try it out at reduced "middle" detail, but so far it seems to have helped in some very mild way but I'm still not running well. It is, however, "playable" in some regard. Just not as regard as I'd hoped.  Dear computer, gently caress you. Sincerely, The User

It kind of sucks getting that partial second of a freeze when you come out of HRV on higher settings. Hell if I know what causes it. Seems to be texture quality.

Of that 20 deaths I think at least 12 were from random nade spam, and the others were from garbage blindfiring. That was a very frustrating round.

Scaling it back for my next incursion. Still, doesn't look like it's going to work out fine, just okay. But yeah, the one or two matches I played with all of that enabled were definitely a mess of effects. It was almost like one of those "I don't care what you think I painted this and glued a street sign on it!" art pieces.

Dark_Swordmaster posted:I am now officially a skidmark on the underpants of GOON! Yay! That shouldn't happen, ever.  Something is seriously hosed up with your PC if it chugs in the menus and you should probably turn to the hardware at this point. Boarderless adds a bit of strain on the PC but not so much that it should slow down to 2 FPS. That's madness.

And this is how I have computed for nearly a year too... To be fair, switching it back was also 2fps until I closed in five seconds later, but I assumed it was left over. Maybe just maybe it was a strain from switching and I didn't wait long enough to let it right itself but... I'm more inclined to believe I'm bad at computers and something on a level I don't control poo poo the bed.

As I bought an AK very recently I thought I'd throw an email to customer support enquiring about a possible refund because of the Raptr packs. They've refunded me the Zen no problem :-) Top notch customer support.

My friend got hacked and couldn't access his account one time so he asked me to send them a ticket. After explaining to them in massive detail that HE HIMSELF COULD NOT LOG IN and giving them his username and email address plus the supposed password, they then replied back that he had to send them a support ticket himself from his own account  .Getting back on topic, I'm glad they actually gave you not only a speedy response, but a refund to boot.

You need to stick around the results screen that normally tallies your gp and xp, however even then you don't know how long you have it until you look in your inventory.

(My personal super secret tech is to turn off fullscreen (F11 in this game) then press Ctrl-PrtSc. ShareX will then capture a rectangular region, save it to disk, upload it to Imgur, and put the URL in your clipboard. Stupidly efficient.])

Switch, after I get HE grenades and the Diamondback legs, are there any intermediate heavy chest armors I should look into before, you know, waiting all the way til Breakguard?

If you can't wait until you unlock the Impact (level 25), then the Warmonger chest is a fine choice if you need that extra slot. I'd actually recommend you buy it BEFORE the Diamondback legs, because those are generally worse than the L30 Colossus (slightly bigger health bonus but way bigger stamina penalty), while the Warmonger is balanced relative to the L25 Impact (half the health bonus, less than half the stamina penalty).

I think I can wait. I'll get exmags on the AK and HE grenades before I'll do anything. That'll give me some time to think about it. Edit: So I guess what you guys recommend the most is waiting for the Fox+Cat/BreakGuard/Colossus combo and instead just spend the GP on souping up my AK, shotgun, and other toys? Did you guys go for intermediaries or did you stick with a 208/210 build until you hit the levels required for those armor bits? Artificer fucked around with this message at 08:28 on May 2, 2013 |
