Destiny 2 / Anyone on PC still play?
October 05, 2020, 10:06:59 PM
**BUMP** Is anyone still playing D2?  

With Beyond Light just one month away, this could be a good time to get back into the game.  I play on PC an PS4 if you would prefer one format over another.

Cheers

Technology Section / help to specc new pc
September 20, 2018, 02:51:18 PM
I just helped my nephew build a new PC with a Ryzen 2700x and I was very impressed with the performance.  Just remember if you are building with it you may need to borrow a low spec Ryzen to upgrade the mobo BIOS and the Ryzen 2700x has NO ONBOARD GRAPHICS AT ALL.  So make sure that there is a grfx card on the mobo before you boot up.  Saves a lot of anxiety and swearing.  

Very impressed with the performance of the M2 memory and it helps keep your case super-neat.

Around these parts, it's either BT or Farmer Palmers Intermaweb Service if you want to watch Netflix in slideshow format.

WFH today, so I should be around this evening if anyone fancies playing.  I've only worked through the Ops so far, so I'm sure that online is going to be a whole new world of pain.

Why are my framerates for this game so dreadful?  I'm getting 15-20fps with a 1070 GTX running at 1080p and bloody awful screen tearing!

Is there some setting that slaughters the frame rate that I can deactivate?

Quote from: Chaosphere;434368There is some other edition with extras you don't need, and also the monthly subscription to EA Access to avoid.

Crap.  I clicked on the wrong option and this popped up. :(

Quote from: Whitey;434359As the title says BF1 can be picked up for £4.37 from Origin and the Premium pass is currently Free.

OK, that's rather a bargain.  **Yoink**  Thanks for that!

Installed the game on Saturday.  105GB!!11!!  O_o

I'm still working through the tutorials (or whatever they're called) and it really does remind me of the fun I have playing R6: Vegas co-op back on the Xbox 360.  I shall try and join you folks for a game one evening.

Quote from: .DickDastardly.;434212Do you still need help with this?

I _think_ it's working but if anyone patient is online tonight, I would appreciate the chance to test this solution properly.  I can be online from 8pm.

I'm still in the office so I doubt I'll be online tonight but I shall get the game installed and ready to run for next week.  Thanks for the help and I hope that you chaps have fun tonight.

Thanks for that!  So, it looks like the standard edition is probably the version to go for.  Does it matter if I buy on Uplay rather than Steam?  The £11 saving over the Steam version does make it look a lot more compelling. https://www.cdkeys.com/pc/games/tom-clancy-s-rainbow-six-siege-pc-cd-key-uplay

Can one play this game with the Starter Edition without being at a huge disadvantage?  If not, what is the minimum version recommended to purchase?

It was reluctant to let me in the supporting member page last week.  Now that it's a bit happier I need to dig out my Pay Pal details.  I may keep this signature even after I've sorted that. :P
