Nostalgia4Dogges posted:Alright, picked up a copy of Returnal. Y’all hyped it up too much. Some people will say remap buttons. Up to you, I thought it was fine with defaults but different strokes. The one thing I absolutely recommend is setting run to always on. You can set it to toggle if you're trying to chill and appreciate the levels but once you're actively trying to win runs you need to have it on.

Usually a fan of the always run thx for the heads up! boz posted:Setting jump and dash to L1 and R1 is nice, besides that have fun! Oh yeah thankfully I’ve done bumper jumper before so that’ll help! It did make some moves on Miles Morales tough, though I played so much Titanfall 2 with it I got the Audeze Penrose so I’m gonna see how this 3D audio really is (wirelessly, anyway)

Ps5 has finally turned me into an fps snob. I never used to give a poo poo, but now find it nearly impossible to enjoy 30fps after being spoilt on GoW and miles morales. This is probably a bad thing.

Pumped for Sekiro tonight. Not sure what to try first. Maybe another few tries on Father Owl #2 or maybe continue a little bit further from where I am. I would like if I could get a few more beads and memories for the former, just so I was a little buffer. I think I can do it.

I said come in! posted:It's important to just be patient and don't buy into the scalper market. A lot more PS5's would be available if people would stop giving scalpers a reason to scalp these systems. The Scalper market where I live is slowly being replaced with Stupid Bundles market. So retailers will have a PS3, but you have to buy like... a gamer chair with it. I think this is in response to them noticing that scalpers were just selling everything from their stores at a crazy markup so why not do the markup yourselves Kingtheninja posted:Have they even made it to physical stores in the states? Or is it all through online sites? I live in the Middle East and it seems to be only physical which is super frustrating. The online sites don't bother even putting stock online when they get it because it sells out on the spot in-store.

This is probably a bad thing. No, developers should stop trying to make 30FPS a target for things. I'm playing a lot of Monster HUnter Rise at the moment and the 30FPS actually feels ok for some reason, but MH World on the base PS4 was an unplayable laggy mess and it kills me that an entire generation was like yeah, 30FPS is ok now I hope any 30FPS game on the PS5 continues to have an option to turn on "60fps mode" basically.

Taxes are different by state, and in some cases locality. America itself doesn't have a sales tax

Biome 2 is Returnal is one of my favourites - the open-space design is unlike anything else in the game that I've seen so far (up to biome 5), and having the freedom to sort of just walk around rooms, flee enemies easily when I want to, and look over the landscape to see any interesting buildings to check out, it's pretty cool. Honestly the visual design of this game is absolutely top notch. The third biome's similarities to that polish artist's work was immediate as soon as I walked in.

Kilometers Davis posted:There’s a double pack of RE7 and Village on the PSN store for a discount I believe. Village is the sequel to RE7 which started this entire story but you don’t have to play RE7 first. I didn’t beat it (but I will after this, it’s great!) but I didn’t feel like I was missing anything big since they offer you a little video recap of 7 when you start Village. re 7 is free with the ps plus collection to ps5 owners, just played through it to see if i wanted to give 8 a try.

r u ready to WALK posted:the enemy that i hated the most in the whole game was the Severed that can lock on to you with a sword swipe from across the entire room. prepare to die a lot until you learn when to dodge that attack, especially when facing two or three at the same time Are these the guys from Biome 3? Yes, loving hate them. I quickly learned to dodge out of their lock-on "grip" thing but man that was a heavy hit to absorb the first time. And then getting stuck in a lockdown with a couple of them and an armor sphere was gg. After hearing all the complaints about how unforgiving the game is, I've actually been surprised by all the tools they give you to keep a run going. Astronaut figures, revive parasites, the reconstructor. And then being able to skip right through biomes as you progress. I feel like now that I have the grapple, if I just get another run with an artifact that heals based on damage, I'll be set.

caldrax posted:It's the drat flying robots, I just can't deal with them, they've gotten me like 5 times today Ok so the thing with those guys is you can stagger them but if there are 5 of them trying to gently caress you up at the same time you can't stagger them all. And if you're focused on dodging the rockets you won't be able to effectively do damage to them. So I see it as having two good options. One is you can limit the number of them that have LOS on you at once. You can do that by using terrain to keep only a couple of them in your view at once, once more come around the corner book it to a new area. Don't ever try to fight more than 1 or 2 at a time. The other option is just RUN constantly. Find where the grapple points are in the arena so that you can get as far away from the clusters of bots as possible, then turn around and do some damage before grappling again. Using this strat, you should never be within attack-range of the flying bots. Both work pretty effectively I've found. The biggest thing to takeaway is if you're actually trying to dodge rockets constantly you're probably not approaching the fight correctly.

Stable 30 FPS is perfectly fine, but the developers have to make sure it never dips below, say, 25 FPS, and only rarely. It's a very fine line.

And if you're focused on dodging the rockets you won't be able to effectively do damage to them. Lol I can count the amount of times I've fought these guys in anything but an plain room or narrow walkway on one hand, no grappling points to be seen, use the terrain my rear end. The only option I've had to is to sprint to the exit as fast as possible, often taking a hit or two in the process because their shots are ridiculously fast and they're all just firing constantly and there's a good four or five of them. So far they're the worst enemy in the game I've seen. If I see any number of them in a side path I'm just walking right back out.
