I've felt the wave of frustration hit a couple times now. So I can't talk trash. What I can comment on, are the things that brought everything back into perspective. Make no mistake. This frustration is an issue with perception, nothing else. I don't say it to start/continue an argument. I...

We actually play board games every Sunday. My wife and I started it up with our daughter years ago for the purpose of teaching strategy and critical thinking. The weekly winner picks dinner the following Sunday. It's turned into a fun filled family murderfest every week. As a result, we have...

Yes, 1000% yes! Is it a perfect solution? No, but it's pretty damn good. First, there is the issue of aimbots. No matter what CIG does, they WILL find their way into the game. They have been in every single shooting game since forever and anyone that thinks it won't be in SC as well is just...

Honestly, it looks like you have a really solid rig there regardless of age. You should be able to handle just about anything on the market on max settings and good fps. If it were me, I wouldn't upgrade it. Hardware seems to have outrun the software lately. So buying better gear isn't...

It's not as bad as it sounds. I am basically using a TV as a monitor, via the hdmi out on my graphics card. I then use a HDMI splitter to run that signal to my other tvs. I chose to use the HDMI/ethernet adapter because it's much easier to run cat6 (300' range, 125' range with cat5e) than it...

The video definitely outlines some of my concerns. If there is the slightest possibility of abuse, a percentage of the player base will make it their life's endeavor to use that mechanic to ruin the day of as many people as possible. It happens in every game that doesn't respect this reality...

Welcome to a cable free world! It's absolutely amazing. We cut the cable a couple years ago and never looked back. Streaming sites offer such a massively better service at much less cost. To be honest, I just dont think cable tv has a place in this world anymore. It's an archaic service...

I am very much looking forward to The Division II. I hope they take what they learned in the first one and apply it at launch to this one. If they do things right, it could be a real winner. I'm also looking forward to Far Cry New Dawn. I don't care if it's a reskin or a ripoff of Far Cry 5...

Nice! I've been eying them for a while now. I think I'm going to wait though. I really want to see what happens with this new flight model. More specifically, if they are going to continue down this IM road. I won't be investing heavily into dual sticks (past my current two tm's) until I...

Sometimes I wonder if they actually do read these forums. I definitely feel some of our conversations here are worth reading. We really do have some good discussions. This is a huge consideration. Unfortunately, most games completely fail at this. They either cater completely to PVP'rs and...

Same here. I only download updates by choice. There is an old IT saying, "don't download updates on release". When it comes to any updates, the potential for breaking EVERYTHING is high. I always give it a day or two for the repair patch to make it's way down the pipe. Updates are like a...

That is precisely why I am so very glad my teenage years landed in the 90's. I can't imagine how different my life would have been if every person I knew walked around at all times with a video camera that could upload and share footage in minutes... All that stupidity carefully recorded and...

It looks like quite a few of us were in the same boat. I hit the pause button when they started messing with the mechanics a while back. I'm looking forward to jumping back in. That said, I'm still not in a huge hurry. My main concern is that the game still has that "new car smell" when it...

I'm kind of in the same boat. I've bought it, but I'm hesitant to play due to the 2hr limit on the refund policy. If it really is a money grab, I don't want any part of it. I certainly don't want to support the developer if they let the current issues stand without addressing them. So far...

Nah, it's just a function of how reviews work. Only a very small percentage of people who bought the game actually reviewed the game (much less than 1% according to the stats). If that small of a percentage is actually motivated to leave a review, they would have to be VERY motivated when...

I can't argue with that. It definitely could have been handled better. I know it is "early access" and technically not a release, but the hard truth is that people make plans based off statements like this. There is nothing more frustrating than arranging your schedule, taking days off, or...

I think part of the issue is the culture that has developed around gaming. Once upon a time, gamers were a very forgiving bunch. We openly praised games despite their flaws. Over time though, some developers started taking advantage of that forgiveness. They twisted our faith and forgiveness...

Ouch. At first glance that looks very impressive. If you look at it a bit closer though, there's only about a dozen different islands. They're just copy/pasted in different locations and orientations. From what I can see, there's only one truly unique island. It's a little to the left of...

Looks like it's been bumped back till tomorrow the 21st. They posted on Discord of all places. I never understood why game developers can never seem to communicate responsively. How hard is it to cut/paste a comment to twitter/facebook/forums/discord? That way people get the message no...

MMO's are my favorite genre by far. It is also a genre that has been absolutely vacant quality entries for several years now. As a result, I have been regularly checking for anything new or on the horizon. So you can imagine my suprise when I stumbled on Atlas. It was supposed to release in...
