Currychips Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Thing is, I could buy a PC - of any spec that I like really, the money isn't the issue. I just like sitting on the sofa, in front of my big ass TV, popping a disc in, scratching my balls as it loads and just generally chilling out and having a laugh. I'm on a PC all day at work, I don't really ever fancy doing the same when I get home. Simple really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonkeyEatingCheese Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I am a console gamer but I play games like Minecraft and GTA SA on PC. There is one PC gamer on this forum that is the most immature prick I have ever come across. I won't say his name but his posts are always about how PC is king and consoles suck. He spams daily. He might be the only person I dislike so much on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash_735 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Fanboys on ANY platform are bad, and the way I see things, these "Elite PC Gamers" are just fanboys for the PC, and I agree, it's amazing how much crap they talk about outdated consoles and console fanboys, yet they don't realize they are fanboys themselves! There was a discussion here the other day, where a load of "Elite PC Gamers" were even saying they'd pirate GTA V on PC if Rockstar don't bring it out within a month of the console version! It's laughable really, we have one guy on this forum who's been around for years, always boasting about PC Gaming, has his computer specs in his sig, all decent stuff that would cost a bit of money, and his excuse was that he couldn't AFFORD to freely buy games on PC when I asked him about why he didn't support a company when they DO bring games to the PC and put effort into it. Amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K^2 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Thing is, I could buy a PC - of any spec that I like really, the money isn't the issue. I just like sitting on the sofa, in front of my big ass TV, popping a disc in, scratching my balls as it loads and just generally chilling out and having a laugh. I'm on a PC all day at work, I don't really ever fancy doing the same when I get home. Simple really. I'm not trying to convert you or anything, but Steam's Big Picture might be for you. Hook PC up to your big screen TV. Get a 360 controller in your hands. You don't even need to pop in a disk, since everything runs from your Steam library. More time for ball-scratching! Honestly, between console games going all patch-happy and Steam going all digital, the argument of convenience of console games just doesn't hold water anymore. I have a PS3, so maybe it's better on 360, but I find Steam to be more convenient. All of the patching happens in the background and games just start and run when I want to play them. With PS3, if it's not a firmware update, it's the game update. By now, the only game I even play on PS3 is Rock Band 3, and even that only for the pro drums. For guitar, it's more convenient for me to just run Rocksmith under Steam. And with the Workshop, Steam is starting to make mods old-console-convenient. For the moment, it really only works as advertised with Skyrim, but I'm sure more and more titles will show that level of mod support. When you can just open up a list of mods, go "Ooo, I like this one." *Clickity* And not only does it install it for you, but it keeps it up to date. So anyways, I won't hold it against anyone preferring consoles. Nor against developers for deciding to go console-only for their releases. But by now, consoles being easier is not objective truth anymore. PC gaming is at least on the level. Cost isn't as big of a factor anymore either. While you probably want to spend more on PC hardware than you would on console, you save money on games themselves, and in the long run, the two are comparable. The advantages of PC are still there, but you have to spend extra effort on them. You can upgrade, but you need to know at least some basic stuff about hardware. You can mod, but then you have to go and mess with game files. Hardcore PC gaming is still alive and kicking, but I know it's not for everyone. The main point is that for people who just want to play games, the line between PC and console has never been thinner. Don't think that if you want it to be easy you have to get a console. You have options, and it's really just a matter of preference in the end. Prior to filing a bug against any of my code, please consider this response to common concerns.

Joaoseinha Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 (edited) I am a PC gamer,and I like being one,but I don't bash console gamers(I just use this term because it's easier than console users or some crap like that.) I know some of the frustration of PC gamers(can't avoid this term on such a discussion,even though I don't often use it). Most of the games don't come to PC,and when some come,it doesn't come at the same date than consoles.It doesn't bother me,since I'm patient and have more games to have fun on,but some people get over excited and then hearing such news makes them mad(quite immature,it's just a freakin' game,relax.). I think that petition has a point.Grand theft auto has came on PC since Gta 1.But I believe it's a bit too soon to start believing it isn't coming just because Rockstar didn't comment on it. I wish all PC gamers could read this,because it has good arguments. Edited November 23, 2012 by GTASAIDEAMASTER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing. I know that you're talking about mkey82 since you two have argued each other 4 days ago and to be fair he is not interested in games like Max Payne 3 which is the reason why he didn't buy it. I know he has maybe a unique way to see things but yeah, who hasn't one as well? He never said that he couldn't afford to buy games for his PC but he said that he has to earn money with his job for his family and that's the reason why he has to choose carefully which game he is going to buy. I don't think that he is a PC fanboy but he simply prefer the PC platform exactly like me and some other people here on GTAForums and that doesn't have to mean that he, me or anyone else is a fanboy because this would be like saying somebody who prefers to play games on Playstation 3 is a PS3-fanboy which isn't true at all. On one side he was sick at some people who laughed at PC gamers for having to wait longer again and at people who always scream "BUY A PS3/XBOX INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR PC!!111!". Well, a lot people simply prefer a certain platform and just because Max Payne 3 was amazingly made for PC, it doesn't mean all people who prefer the PC platform will automatically buy it for PC and the same goes for mkey82. He isn't interested in Max Payne 3 so he isn't going to buy it. As simple as that. It's not like that PC fanboys are so bad because to be exact all types of fanboys, whether PC fanboys or consoles fanboys, are bad. If you think like this then you would have to hate console gamer as well. I know you don't want to say this in general but I just want to point out, like some other people here, that fanboys of any platform are bad because if you're a fanboy then it means you're biased but it's always better if you know all possible things from more point of views instead of only one point of view. I think it's the best to ignore and avoid these fanboys here on the forum but then again it's often hard because some posts truly show how biased somebody can be and then it's needed to throw facts at him/her/them which doesn't always end well.

I'm not going to mention names, you did, but I do think it's weird for these kind of people to complain and bitch to Rockstar about NEVER releasing any games on the PC, and yet when they DO release games on the PC, turn around and say "Well, I'm not interested in buying that", and then wonder why Rockstar don't bring more to the PC! Look at Max Payne 3 right now, it's 75% off and it's currently the Top Seller on Steam and GamersGate, and that's what people need to do, show them there's a market and a demand for that platform, bitching and crying on a forum and then slating the platforms that DO get it is going to get you nowhere and make you look like an entitled douche. I agree, it's annoying to see comments like "LOL JUST BUY A CONSOLE!!!" but it's equally annoying to see "BAH, PATHETIC sh*tTY CONSOLE GRAPHICS SUCK, f*ck U COCKSTAR!", show each other a little respect eh and put your money where your mouth is if you're one of these well known preachers.

coin-god Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 So.. according to the OP: PC Gamers (or people to happen to game on PC) cannot be proud of their PC's like many Console players are. Putting your system specs in your signature is abominable. Making a petition to get GTA on PC because R* doesn't say anything is also wrong. We can't enjoy the game on PC. Now, I know there are many fanboys and idiots who play on PC. But there are many Console fanboys too. I don't particularly hate console fanboys, nor PC fanboys. I don't see the point in getting all angry at this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sivispacem Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 (edited) I'm pretty sure that statistically and technically speaking there are more PC gamers than there are any kind of console gamer. But then you have to consider "casual" gamers, online or F2P titles et al. The question is, in my view, why not produce a PC version? The vast majority of programming, design, and architecture is done on PC systems in PC programming languages, so its not as if it presents any kind of cost penalty. Marketing and distribution costs are already covered. Modern console hardware is nigh-on identical to PC hardware so there's no compatibility issues. Some recent titles, Luke Skyrim, have substantially outsold the console versions. Piracy exists on all systems, so it's totally wrong to suggest that's the issue. The only reason I can see is that most publishers get a far higher selling price on console than they do on PC. By pushing consumers towards console based systems at much smaller initial outlay, they can increase their profit margins by charging in some cases double for games. Aside from the most staunch of PC devs and publishers, the tendency towards iffy ports and delayed releases can only really be a sign of laziness. And why not? People still go out and by 50% of a Call of Duty title for£50, and then willingly spend another £50 on pointless DLC that does nothing to improve the title, even though the year-earlier release is, in technical terms, perhaps 70-80% identical. Put simply, the console market appears to reward lazy development. I also find it deeply ironic that console owners complain about PC gamees taking issue with poor quality ports, and then throw their toys out of the pram when Bethesda/Obsidian release Fallout: New Vegas so badly ported on the PS3 system to as be essentially unplayable.

MWC Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Yes, I you could call me a PC gamer. And I hate many of them. Look around these forums; you will see the supposed "mature" PC gamers acting like they are entitled to something, or like they are better than everyone else. One user even has a banner under their username that states "Proud PC gamer." And by the way, stay away from that guy. He is not only an asshole, but so much that you could call him a lunatic. Look at the petition: http://www.change.org/en-CA/petitions/rock...ase-gta-v-on-pc The top two most liked comments are "Because I'm a PC Gamer" and "I just want you to work on this game now instead of crappily porting it to the pc years after initial release." Really. The thought that anyone in a stable mind would like either of these comments disgusts me (though the former could be seen as a "unity" of PC gamers comment, I see it as a "yeah, I deserve the game because I'm a PC gamer" comment. Maybe I am pessimistic in this respect). Now, Rockstar has to read these comments and may be lead to believe that PC gamers really are the assholes everyone else says they are. Then we have this whole "elite" PC alpha race bullsh*t. Maybe the PC is the best system for gaming in terms of graphics and mods, but stop spreading more zealous crap that makes you as a gamer look bad. So, to get it out of my system: f*ck PC gamers that think they have the right to act or speak like what I have been seeing.

I want the game to come out on PC to, and I'm sure it will, but I don't think in any way or form that I deserve it or have some kind of right to it.

Well you can't blame the "PC fanboys" really for all that behavior because the main reason they are behaving like that is the fact that for who knows what year in a row R* hasn't announced the PC release date along with the console one, and that is the main reason, i'm not panicking because i am 100% sure there is am PC version of GTA V in development now like has always been the case, but on top of that people who only play games on PC have to put up with all the hate from the underage kids who shouldn't even be allowed to play any gta in the first place, half of those "PC version" topics you see in the GTA V forum are filled with anti-PC comments and not from the pc fanboys as you describe, so it is only normal to me that some pc people act irrational because 99% of the places we try to discuss the PC version of gta V gets filled with hating comments of the console kids. EDIT: Also don't think i am bashing all console gamers, i only play on PC but i might end up buying a ps3 to play gtav at release like i did for IV, there are console only players who can still contibute to normal discussion on the PC version, but i am against those console kids who's 99% of the posts are in those PC versions topics bashing at the PC crowd.

Finn 7 five 11 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 PC gamers are the snobs of gaming, they think they are better than console gamers because they play modded games. Thats a stereotype but its not far from the truth. They are dicks. Now PS3 gaming is the most mature gaming. It outprices the chavs and kids and has a very adult based game selection, as opposed to the Xbox Kinect and its Wii like games. Get a PS3. I love what you did there. Completely took the oppurtunity to go contradict yourself. I hate to generalize, but there are definitely way more immature kids on XBL vs PC or PSN. I'm sure there are jsut as many adults on all forms, but XBL takes the cake for kids that jump into the lobby screaming they are going to troll you or calling you a fa**ot. Anyway On-topic, I honestly don't have a problem with so-called "elitists". I game on PS3 and most PC gamers speak nothing but the truth when they mention that PC games are superior in most ways. You can't honestly say a multi-platform game looks worse on a good PC than it does on a console. I think kids with consoles just get too butthurt when they get told that PC is better in the middle of a 360 vs PS3 war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is indeed true, i only have a 360 but my brother has a PS3 and i noticed there is way less kids playing on PSN with him or maybe he is just playing with his friends, but Yes, there is way too many kids on Xbox live, Thank God i'm not a fan of any online shooter, some of my friends are though unfortunely.

I honestly think on that front, it's just down to Microsoft giving EVERYONE a Mic with the console, where as on PS3 and PC, you have to BUY a Mic, like actually go out, in person, and pay with your money Where as on 360, everyone will have a kic right away so yeah, easy for these kids to just dive into any convo and scream the place down with confusing yet hilarious and racist/sexist comments.

The Killa Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 .. all I want is to play the same quality game at the same time as everyone else does. If that makes me some "entitled brat" or what have you, then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it doesn't, ...unless you go around saying LOL CONSOLES SUCK, sh*tTY OUTDATED GRAPHICs, PC MASTER RACE, f*ck COCKSTAR, GTA WAS BORN ON PC AND BELONGS ON PC, COCKSTAR MAKING sh*tTY MISTAKE! I DESERVE THIS BECAUSE I'M A PC GAMER! In which, I'd say you are, but I haven't seen you post like that. It IS possible to be a PC gamer and NOT be a fanboy jerk.

Well I won't lie and not say that Rockstars silence on PC has pissed me off, because it certainly has. Not to that extent you're mentioning, but it is incredibly frustrating. Granted, we're still a few months off so if they're planning a PC release a la Max Payne 3 (weeks later, well optimized) then I'll be very happy. I highly doubt that will be the case, however. I have the 360 on stand-by, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
