Official PC Gamers Topic V3

It's cause for alarm, yes, but I don't think it's anywhere close to the scale of the PSN hacking yet.

Indeed. Steam is working fine, community is fine, games weren't stolen from accounts thankfully. Nothing like PSN hack.

Plus even if they steal your password so what?

idk... maybe give them off on the internet like what they did with those minecraft accounts ( there were quite a bunch of minecraft accs stolen from web cookies or something like that) and i have my credit card acc fixed to my acc... but im sure most banks have stuff where they need to confirm the payment via mobile or something like that

Sure Gabe. Apologize all you want for compromising the financial and personal security of millions of gamers. Now release Episode 3.

Now release Episode 3.

No doubt that my post will get ignored in the Skyrim topic, so I'll post it here. Are the shadows supposed to look this bad on Ultra settings in Skyrim?

They look worse than in even Morrowind with detailed shadows enabled and it's kinda ruining the game for me. Can anyone playing on Ultra show me a screen shot with much smoother shadows?

Looks alright here, you should try upgrading your drivers.

My drivers are the latest ones out. I've played a few hours and gotten used to not taking much notice of the shadows but damn, I'm not settling for this sh*t with my 580.

 

Hopefully it gets fixed in an update or I'll find a way to fix it, because I'm pretty much stumped.

[kudoboi]

is steam still hacked>?

 

[Fireman]

The Skyrim shadows are pretty pixelated. To answer your question, they're spose to look that bad. Difference between the screenshots above are that they're not taken on a white surface, he'll probably have the same shadows on the same spot.

 

Also still so many animation bugs piss me off and I don't like the gameplay (didn't play any TES games before for longer than 5 minutes) at all. Why would I have to select a hand to cast magic. Will I get any chance somewhere in the game where I can just combat cast >_>

 

Anyway, I'll see, hopefully I can finish it without much pain.

You like mods don't you? There's ya solution right there.

[Sunrise Driver]

Screw you then.

I Am Alive was canceled for the same reason.

 

And what have you acomplished? You really so naїve and think that "bloody PC pirates" will buy your games on consoles?

 

I don't care about Ghost Recon but I'd like to see IAA on PC.

Oh my... what in the...

 

'because we know that 95% of our consumers will pirate the game.'

 

What. These figures are complete bullsh*t. These guys have actually lost it.

[Creed Bratton]

Oh my god, they are so f*ckin' stupid. They don't understand how the industry works. They are actually alienating a large number of their customers. Not only that, but as this generation of consoles is nearly at the end, more developers are embracing PC again. Any sane person would do the same. They still don't understand that it's their DRM and their lousy console ports that are responsible for piracy and lack of sales. People want to try before they buy. And when they try, they see that the game is sh*tty. So they simply don't buy.

[Pat]

They still don't understand that it's their DRM

BUT THAT'S TOTALLY NOT TRUE, OTHER PC GAMES ARE SUFFERING IN SALES TOO!

 

...right?

 

...right?!

 

oh wait no they aren't.

[ilya]

Was mildly interested in I Am Alive, just hadn't looked much into it.

 

Oh well, if they don't want my money, that's cool.

[Pat]

Bunch of Fall sales going on Steam right now, most notable of which are New Vegas for $5 and DLC for $2.75 each, and LA Noire for $25.

Anyone planning to buy a new computer, it's best you hold off for a year, I've been reading tech reviews from recent magazines and it suggests, before AMD has a chance to redeem BullDozer, Intel will roll on over them iwith it's own Tank... Ivy Bridge CPUs and integrated graphics, it could find some solution to heating and wattage, and you'll have two more cores in that same CPU they can unlock, found in the Intel Sandy Bridge E right now. The 2011 socket is the board to look for!

[Creed Bratton]

In other Ubisoft news, PC version of AC:R got leaked, and according to dark parts of the internet the optimization is even better than in Brotherhood.

I hope they go bankrupt.

[Creed Bratton]

They are really dumb. You want to know a perfect, yet easy way for Ubisoft to increase PC sales? TF2 Assassin's Creed hats and other thingies. That, and a more positive attitude regarding PC gamers.

[Blackadder.]

Just wondering, does anyone here have Sanctum on Steam? Was thinking of picking it up as it's only $2.50 but there isn't much point if I haven't got anyone to play it with.

 

Edit: Ended up buying a 4-pack and will gift the extra copies to some friends.

[Law0070]

bought terraria, the humble bundle and gmod, heard more sales are to come around xmas etc..so might wait for it, but sanctum looks like a nice game tho..

[Slamman]

My PSX for PS2 is pretty dang old, a Radio Shack find so long ago. Wonder if there's devices like it still on market? That's after seeing many PS like controllers for PC that seem rather sparse. It's nice to use the familiar Sony PS controller, but what other options might be similar for PC gaming via controller USB?

[Law0070]

xBox controller or can't you just get your hands on a new ps controller? logitech has a nice amount of controllers as well

 

I'm considering buying the unreal deal pack on steam, €9.99 for all the unreal games (incl unreal III + titan expansion)

[Waste]

You can run the PS3 and Wii controllers via bluetooth.

Does Saint's Row 3 pc version have co-op?

Does Saint's Row 3 pc version have co-op?

Yes, it is using Steam.

I don't even want to talk about what I bought, Steam really does have a way of sucking your wallet dry. Spent a bit over a hundred bones this sale.

 

Also, Deus Ex Human Revolution is by far the best single player FPS I've played in years.

[Blizzard14]

I was away during most of the sales.

 

What a shame.
