I'm sure destiny 2 is much better than it was at release but my god did Destiny 2 disappoint.

I don't even want to touch it again...

Haha, knew it. First post was someone complaining, about getting something for free no less.

Good ol' BluesNews

Redeye isn't complaining. He's making a joke, Rowan Atkinson style.

I got finally around to playing Titanfall 2.. and what an amazing campaign that was. Pure action, super detail level... got all the helmets and finished it on master.. in 8 hours. Man. Glad I paid only 5€ for that

"Toxic masculinity"...what rubbish...;) I guess there's also a "toxic femininity", as well?...;)

Wherein WaltC displays complete ignorance of the meaning of "toxic masculinity" while at the same time providing a textbook example of it. Congratulations.

This is very clearly 0/10 bombing by thousands of players who have only played a few hours of the game or have not played it at all, basing their entire scores on a few leaked cutscenes or plot points.

Along with the worshippers of a few angry YouTubers and those upset because of "the game’s prominent use of LGBT characters."

I have gotten my 35 dollars worth of entertainment of this game without ever being able to play it.

If you've pledged that amount in the KS you can actually download and play it.

"Play it"

There's enough gameplay and easily found footage of it online that it's clear anyone that uses an argument like yours is just a edgelord troll. Yawn.

And yet Dacron kinda nailed how I feel about it. They haven't released a playable game. I get what you are saying, I do. But it's been a long time now and what we can "play" isn't anywhere close to a release ready game. Every time you load it up something works completely different, feels completely different...whats the point in trying it if it won't be the same when the game does release? It's a moot point anyway. I only dropped 35 dollars for a reason and that reason is that a KS is not a guarantee of anything. I am not mad, like I said, this title provides endless entertainment everytime it hits the feed.

I guess to people like Razuman, glorified tech demos are games. Enough to get emotional and insultive about it. Meh, some people are easily triggered.

The rest of can see the empty shell for what it is (like he said, enough video online.) and most remember the kickstarter was for Squadron 42. They added the persistent universe BS halfway through, so no, he can't even "play it" if his intentions were like most from the kickstarter to play Squadron 42, the successor to Wing Commander. Which was suppose to come out 6 years ago.

But he think's I'm the troll. Muh.

Not as triggered as everyone that makes blatantly false claims.
The game as it is currently is far from a techdemo, buggy and incomplete, but that's any game in development. It's a tired old argument that's easily disproven from even the smallest bit of research, but they know doing so would quickly invalidate their smug stance.

Excuse my smug stance as original backer of a SINGLE PLAYER GAME expecting it to be a thing after.. my god, 7 FUCKING years since funding.

I had to google my own gmail account to find out whether I even owned the game, apparently I do. At this rate I gotta write this in my testament for whoever comes after me.

Ya, but some people think "persistent universe" was the plan as opposed to added when CR figured out he might be able to fund it. It's now taken over so much of development time/resources the originally planned game is 6 years late from its planned already.... And the "pu" and feature creep are the studios answer for the delays.

It's okay. He's angry and emotional about the state the game is in vs what it should be. There is no game. It's a loosely combined bunch of tech demos. But if he wants to "play" that let him have at it and call everyone else who disagrees a troll.

It WAS the plan, go look at the Kickstarter, it's been there this whole time.

And if you think I'M being angry and emotional about this when I'm NOT the one dropping F-bombs and simply stating facts, you must have a weird definition of those words in your head. LOL

And there certainly IS a game you can play, I have it on my PC as I speak. Any game in development could be called a "loosely combined bunch of tech demos" by anyone trying hard enough to twist the meaning of words hard enough to complain about a popular game no one is forcing them to play.

Yes, the "PU" was added at the $3 million mark. Squadron 42 was the original goal, after which was raised the pu was added, it was NEVER the plan from the start but added after the success of the KS. The KS was for the successor the Wing Commander ,not a MMORPG/FPS, altered due to its success. The studio even uses it as a reason to delay "the fans wanted X feature due to fund raising, so we delay to add more"

But if you enjoy those tech demos, good on you.

And F bombs? You realize that was another user, right ?? Or are you referring to me transcribing a comedy bit from another reply ?? You literally quoted them in your reply, it's not me. Unless you mean the bill burr skit I wrote in text, in response to SOMEONE ELSE.

Yes, you're emotional.

Well that wasn't what I was expecting...

Ok, 11 years ago I purchased minecraft off his website for 10$ because I saw it on 4chan. Played a little thought it was cool but it was really missing was NPCs and such to really be cool. I thought, "If they just had Daggerfall like NPCs and towns, this could be a lot cooler" or even if they had Dwarf Fortress Adventure mode but in Minecraft style.

So I see this, think.. "Oh did they finally do that in a small way?" and then realize it's just a Diablo/Path of Exile/Grim Dawn type game except with minecraft block design.

Now, anyone up on this in the last 11 years. Does anything like above exist?

Steam in-home streaming is decent, like using a gaming desktop to stream the game to a laptop. Why can't that be done outside the home network? (assuming there's no connection or network obstacles with speed/access) Steam is already offering Remote Play which lets others play co-op from a game running on my desktop. It seems to me the ability is already there, why do I need to use an external NVIDIA cloud infrastructure?

I'm calling bullshit on PS5 SSD being faster than a PC's top NVMe M.2 SSD. The PCIE4 followed by Samsung 970 Pro are probably just as fast.

As well, why the hell would an M.2 SSD be the big thing he's focused on? Sounds like someone paid him. Actual RAM is faster and more critical for his unreal 5 engine.

It's custom built for one purpose. And it's faster than NVME M.2. From what I've seen, that's 3,500 throughput. This is 5,000.

Ok, I can see how a custom built controller to hit your faster than NVME m.2 drives pushes it faster without backwards compatibility.

But why is this going to really matter on performance of anything other than load times?

Let's look at ram speeds (which affect performance)
DDR3 data transfer rates:
DDR3 1066 8.5 GB/s
DDR3 1333 10.6 GB/s
DDR3 1600 12.8 G MB/s
DDR3 1866 14.9 G MB/s


DDR4 data transfer rates:
DDR4 2133 17 GB/s
DDR4 2400 19.2 GB/s
DDR4 2666 21.3 GB/s
DDR4 3200 25.6 GB/s

The PS5 has:
Memory: 16GB GDDR6/256-bit RAM, 448GB/s

Which IS better than my PC because my PC is 32 gigs of DDR4 @ 3200 with transfer 25.6 Gb/sec through my 32 gigs of ram. This SSD does does 9 Gb/sec at maximum.

The original article talks about the SSD being faster.. Ok sure. It actually looks like the PS5 on release will be faster in a lot of ways than our HEDTs.. but it won't be that way for long and it'll take what.. 6 years for them to catch up again?

If accurate that would make the claim reasonable. If Sony is custom making SSDs which are faster than anything else on the market and only using them in PlayStations... it would an interesting marketing plan.
