My last AMD/ATI card was a 9800pro. That came out in 2003, my reasoning was that the drivers for the last few AMD cards i owned were just going to shit (had a 9700 before that). It just seems like a business as usual type of thing for AMD/ATI. Nvidia is far from perfect, but they do put considerably more effort in there drivers.

"

yeah bullshit.

9800 was the very next card after the 9700 so what is this "last few amd cards" bullshit?

That was also during the time AMD was wiping the floor with nvidia in the driver and performance department. Nvidia was cheating in every benchmark just to try and keep up. AMD had a public driver beta tester program going during that and the next 2 generations of products. In fact their main driver guy was hired FROM Nvidia.

Seriously.. you guys are like brain washed nvidia drones. posting the same irrational crap in every thread.

Nvidia cheats and does underhanded shit. Those are the facts. Just like what is going on with this game. Do you really think it takes a 3gb AMD card to keep up with a 2GB Nvidia card?

Use your brains people, this is all underhanded marketing bullshit spearheaded by Nvidia.

Wow, major update. Looks pretty good. No UE4 good, but a vast improvement.

Looks as good as UE4 to me. epic just put a ton of bells and whistles in their demo.

Yeah he's got a history, but if ya look at his posting history on Blues, he's been rather insightful into other things beyond his own software,

like suing forum posters for defamation?

I think maybe Derek Smart has mellowed out.

Nah he just has a program that detects when he's having an "episode" and logs on Hellbinder or deqer instead of his other account.

That is hilarious..

not gonna lie. I like the battlecruiser games and I think its cool that small indie developers can still make niche games.

I even like it that he tears into the hoards of half-wit trollish losers out there.

I really don't see what you guys are all butthurt about. Thousands of people got to play the Beta on the public servers and it was fun

While ya'll are sitting here being crotchety as fuck for no good reason I'm going to enjoy the best fast paced FPS I've played (in BETA) in years. If the other 13 maps are as fun as the 2 in beta where then this game is worth what I paid for it.

I think a lot of you have forgotten that games are about fun. Not bashing a game because of who developed it or published it because some guys reviewed it on private servers. Get over it. So disappointing to read any of the comment threads on here anymore.

You would actually have to have active brain cells to get the basic gist of the point of gaming. something sorely lacking on blues these days.

Its just a mindless collection of immature trolls.

I play BF4 all the time and its fine. Occasional crashes don't kill the games fun when you play it for 2-3 hours at a time or more for some people.

people who are waiting for perfection before they buy are silly. The game is what the game is and it rocks bugs and all.

I have played many of the MMO's out there, and AO was by far the best experience. Thanks to it's primitive graphics (compared to state of the art today), one could play multiple characters (multi-box ect.) very smoothly. Shame they let it go mostly fallow. Would not be surprised if they shutter AO before the 'real soon now' graphics update sees the light of day.

I don't think so. its probably making a bigger profit margin than any of the rest of their games.

Now that 120/144hz monitors are gaining traction they are making news that they are still behind the curve!

That makes no sense at all. 60 FPS is still the standard for smoothness for video games. Most gamers are not fringe geeks.

The news is they are making an old game engine do new things and they are changing the engine so that it runs at 60 fps instead of 24 fps.

My days of Quakecon were some of the best when I lived in Austin in the 90s. What a time...

I never envied people attending Quakecon while I was having hourly and daily sexual encounters with a girlfriend during those times.

whoupdee do... What about the guys who went to the con with their girlfriends and got the big chicken dinner experience from the whole thing?

You can have sex all the time D-bag... you can not attend awesome events that make memories that last a life time.

Ugh....I love the Elder Scrolls but this just looks....awful...

It won't matter how good or bad it is, the servers will be shut within a year. I think the day of massive subs to any game are over.

I disagree, they will just go full sub to recoup costs faster then switch to F2P.

I do agree with InBlack though, the beta was boring.

These MMO's have become so cookie-cutter (read: boring garbage) when I see it's an MMO I don't give it a second thought. The main problem seems to be if they make the game the way they want, as in tough and requiring a brain to play instead of being a button smasher, nobody will play it. People want mindless shit to play that requires little to no attention span to get into.

Well at least there is enough of us out there to keep Anarchy Online going. If you don't have at least a bachelors degree in nerdology.. don't even try it.

Just did my yearly reactivation of a couple accounts and yeah still awesome. Surprised at the number of people on also. Looks like they are following through with the new engine finally as it is actually getting close to completion. they are also one patch away from releasing a huge new noob starting area with something like 100 new missions.

I like to consider myself a gamer.. but I absolutely missed the Wii U launch, and up until recently, I thought it was an add-on for the Wii.

I am on many gaming sites weekly, work with a gamer, talk games and play games all the time.. and I didnt even know WTF a Wii U was. Their marketing team really screwed that up.

That is literally the craziest thing I have ever read. You play games, work with a gamer and visit game sites but you never saw any of the year long media blitz for the Wii U or the controller?

I just cant see how that is even possible.

really? i like funcom. what is wrong with their customer service?

I just reactivated one of my old Anarchy online accounts for the umpteenth time over the years. I will always be grateful to funcom for making my favorite game of all time. The deepest most awesome scifi mmorpg anyone has ever attempted. (well eve but i am not into ships)

someday i know AO will be shut down and i dont want to feel the pain i did when i went to log in last year to City of Heros to play their Christmas stuff after a year of non play only to discover they are gone.

even though its not perfect and there is stuff to bitch about.. man i love AO.

so none of you guys really care how people act like packs of wolves online? all you do is join in?

yeah on second thought.. the guy is a D-Bag. Consumer opinion is more important than what a corp wants to ram down peoples throat.

yeah i hit 58 games in my steam library because of sales. I know that is small potatoes compared to some people. but how could you pass up the entire bioshock series for 11 bucks? playing infinite now and it is totally awesome.

my pc is a console.

btw.. I don't believe these analysts at all. Xbox ones don't sell out anywhere and PS4 are gone before they hit the floor. I was in wallyworld just over the weekend. 3 xbox ones for sale no ps4's and that was on a Saturday night. meaning no none had rushed in to buy the xbox ones.

you cant trust analysts they hacks for Microsoft.

Plus I would be insulted to if our Canadian soldier's lateral movement looked like Beiber trying to sidestep wearing skinny jeans 2 sizes to small.

Given everything that's apparently wrong with the game, that seems like a very odd thing to focus on here.

Game is pretty awesome now after the last 2 patches that were released in the last 2-3 weeks.

Of course China is going to ban this. Anyone who has played through the campaign would expect this. I'm surprised it took this long. You play as US military killing hundreds if not thousands of stupid Chinese soldiers. You help some magically charismatic Chinese pacifist civilian who the Chinese soldiers instantly change sides for without question, with a revolution highly suggested. It's propaganda at its best. If only they'd managed to work in the pollution angle somehow.

Imagine if they made a game where you played the Chinese military attacking major US cities and killing countless dumb Americans.

Most of the politicians would implode and the media shitstorm would be legendary

Funny how America never stops to think that maybe other people actually like their country they same way they do theirs. Has anything china done worse than rounding up all the native americans that were left after we slaughtered them all for jesus because this was the new promised land and stuffed them onto reservations?

America has done more evil shit to people than almost any other country on earth in about the shortest amount of time and we think because we had a couple of good years during WWII that nothing else matters.

Just picked up BF4, and dear lord I wish I hadn't bought it from GMG as I would be getting a refund. Feels like a COD version of Battlefield 3.

like hell it feels more like a cross between BF2 and bad company 2. Which I like very much, Never liked BF3

I don't know why DICE even bothers to patch any of their games. They know you suckers are just going to keep giving them money no matter what. Lol!

Well that could be because the game is fucking awesome even with the bugs. I love this shit. Its digital crack.
