I think Witcher 3 has ruined/set the bar for any other RPG for me

Yeah, they need to completely eliminate inventory wrangling in new games. There's no excuse in 2017 to be going cross-eyed trying to line up your doo-dads and figure out what you can get rid of. I think I even made a rage thread a while ago about inventories. But The Witcher 3 did patch the...

why isn't foot controllers ever used in modern gaming?

Back before they fixed the insanely large turning radius of Geralt in Witcher 3, I was thinking of hooking up my Logitech G27 and driving him around with the wheel, and using accelerate to go forward and brake to go backwards. They ended up fixing his movement somewhat so I never bothered, but...

Halo 5: Guardians PC version is dead.

Well you'really not missing anything by not playing this game, trust me. I bought it when it first came out, finished the campaign and felt vaguely unsatisfied. I'm not into the multi-player. 6 months later I played through the campaign again, because c'mon it's halo 5, but nope I really didn't...

$3 Hard Reset Redux @ Steam

I've been playing it, the new sprint function is incredibly useful and necessary. I don't mind the new katana, I pull it out occasionally if things aren't going to detonate in my face. The graphics might be a slight downgrade but who can notice with everything going on anyways? Though I must...

Cluttered inventories ruining gaming

I agree with you guys, there should be a separate tab or screen in your inventory dedicated solely to crafting materials, in any game that wants to incorporate crafting. It would be best if it had a grid showing all crafting materials possible to get in the game, with a fixed location for each...

Cluttered inventories ruining gaming

Is anyone else getting fatigued with the increasingly convoluted and cluttered inventory systems in games lately? The inventory system is seriously becoming my determining factor as to whether I'll finish a game or not. Fallout 4 is easy to pick on, of course. I quickly got tired of...

Intermittent freezing requiring shutdown on 2500k

Yes I posted with my wife's profile by accident, it was me though. Good idea for the M4, I will update it next time I go over there, and maybe disconnect the WD drive and put another in it for now.

Intermittent freezing requiring shutdown on 2500k

I had ran Malwarebytes scanner, caught a few minor things. The power saving options are for the most part disabled. Now I no longer think this is a software\windows issue because it froze on me requiring a reset while in the bios itself, not even doing anything. It had froze once with first...

Intermittent freezing requiring shutdown on 2500k

I thought about it and realized that the computer was doing this with a different mouse as well, so it is not the mouse or mouse software. Unfortunately I couldn't take the computer home with me like I planned, so I won't be able to continue to troubleshoot this for the moment. I'll resurrect...

Intermittent freezing requiring shutdown on 2500k

Hello, I built a machine for a family member about a year ago, and it's been freezing every week or so requiring a reset. It seems that the windows on screen will "multiply and leave tracers" and then the machine freezes. It happens completely randomly, often when the machine is just idling...

Diablo 3 - Digital Pre-sales now! @ Battle.net

Instead of pre-ordering, you could: Put your money in the bank, accumulate a small amount of interest, and buy it for the same price and receive it at the same time when it is released! Wow! I am quite baffled as to why anyone would ever pre-order something, unless there was an actual deal or...

How to hook up Coolermaster Storm Trooper Fan Controller

There is only four ports for fans, and three ports for led control off the fan controller. As to whether or not you can split these and run more fans, I'm uncertain. What I have heard is that LED control for non - coolermaster fans doesn't work the greatest (the fans apparently flash when...

How to hook up Coolermaster Storm Trooper Fan Controller

Ok, I figured out that 4 pin molex that is connected right at the fan controller is for the x-dock (along with a sata cable) The 4 pin molex that runs off of the cable is for the fans and leds. Still not sure why the HDD activity light doesn't work. Appears to be hooked up correctly...

How to hook up Coolermaster Storm Trooper Fan Controller

Hi, I just picked up this case, and I'm a little hazy on something. I currently have all fans and leds working from the fan controller, but there is an extra 4 pin molex I don't have hooked up. There is one 4 pin molex connection right on the controller itself, and another 4 pin connection...

Should I go to the Dr. for a broken pinky?

You should go because I broke/dislocated my pinky once and didn't realize it. Now it's healed so the one joint is locked and I can't completely straighten it or curl it up. It kind of annoying, but at least it's in the correct position for typing and mousing. The thought of getting it re-broken...

Possible to run 3 200mm fans off mobo fan headers?

Ok thanks, I feel safe enough to leave it hooked up this way - at least until I buy a quieter case again. Currently using a HAF 922 with additional 200mm side fan, and trying to get it as quiet as possible. The S-Flex 1600 rpm fan I have on my Hyper 212 Plus is the loudest part about it.

Possible to run 3 200mm fans off mobo fan headers?

So the three fans are rated at .28 amps apiece. All three are currently hooked up to my mobo fan headers, and the bios controls them to run at 500 rpm normally, and when cpu gets up to about 60c they go up to 650 rpm. They are really quiet at 500 rpm. I couldn't get official limits on the...

Dungeon Siege 3 - something to tide us over until Diablo

I've seen a lot of hate over DS3, and after playing the game for a few hours, I can say it is really undeserved. The game is quite good, actually. Though I rarely play games for the story, I find it is quite well written and thought-out, and the voice-overs are better than a lot of games of...

Anyone else sick of games telling you what to do?

Now, what I really enjoy, is when not only am I forced to listen to a disembodied voice drone on, all character control is taken from me. For example, try playing Gears of War, every 5 frickin' minutes, somebody starts yakkin' into your earpiece, and you are slowed down to a CRAWL. You move...

Yeah, the qte button pressing really irritates me too. I really liked Crysis 2, despite gould's incessant nagging, but I couldn't stand the parts where you were lying on your back like a turtle, alternating different button presses to crawl, or sit up, for minutes at a time. Then you'd play for...

Worth it to upgrade from Q9550 to i7 930?
