i've been trying to hold off on commenting on the whole dishonored 2 performance stuff because I'm obviously crazy biased but it's claimed that the whole fuckup with that launch was due to nvidia releasing some broken loving drivers the week before dh2 launched, and then launching a set of "new" drivers a week later that was actually a rollback that corrected 90% of the performance issues people were having with dishonored 2. now even I take that explanation with a grain of salt but i did do my due diligence and nvidia released driver 376.19 on december 5th, dishonored 2 launched on december 11th, and nvidia then released driver 376.33 on december 14th, which seems anomalously close together for a driver release and corroborates the story as it was told to me, so maybe it wasn't actually totally arkane's fault Cowcaster fucked around with this message at 04:07 on May 4, 2017 |

Palpek posted:Somebody please post (in spooilers) what that recycler exploit is. stick a cube of your favorite material in the recycler bin. split it into a bunch of stacks (bigger stacks are better it seems, i tried splitting off just the minimum amount to fill the bin completely and the returns weren't quite as good). marvel at there being a rounding error someplace in the calculation and the recycle button spitting out basically double what you put in. Is not killing named phantoms important? I've been murdering my way through them on the assumption once they're a phantom they're a done deal.

i am extremely disappointed with the amount of reviews trickling in that sound like they're saying "well it's got bits of bioshock in there but bioshock did it first so it's just a copycat"

Lakbay posted:For people wondering if they should follow the main plot or explore I'd say follow the main plot until after you get the Psychoscope so that you can start research so you can get Typhon powers i got sidetracked and got the jetpack followed by the c-beam first but it was pretty much on the way, so.

i will admit my one criticism of the game so far seems to be that there's not going to be a utterly useless weapon tree that shows up 75% of the way through the game. what a major design flaw, guys.

Ibram Gaunt posted:I just wanna drop in and say that I applaud Arkane for making the audio logs like SS2 and have them be for the most part actually logical, in both their content and where they're found. One of the dumbest parts of Bioshock was finding random peoples monologues about super secret or important things in a bathroom or some other nonsensical location.

CJacobs posted:Nobody. not to hamstring prey here because i respect it for having it but morrowind, oblivion's predecessor, let you kill plot sensitive npc's with a little popup "you done hosed up", and included a way of finishing the plot through brute force even if you continued on. now, as to whether or not a player would legitimately be able to figure out how to do so without consulting a guide is probably more up in the air

i just kept chucking explosive tanks at the one i've encountered to far with leverage 1 and then finished it off with a q-beam it's actually the first time i've been a little disappointed in the game, i set up this big pile of explosive tanks with a neuroshock mine on top for this super awesome trap plan, but for the goddamn life of me could not convince the thing to loving step on it. foam darts, getting spotted, nothing could get the stupid thing to budge. so i ended up picking up the tanks one at a time and hucking them at its stupid face CharlieFoxtrot posted:Wait actually I remember exactly where it is . There is a guy on the second floor of the neuromod area are you sure that's where the plan is? because that's where i definitely picked up the gun itself but i can recheck to see if the plan is on the guy Cowcaster fucked around with this message at 13:39 on May 10, 2017 |

yeah, i picked up necropsy thinking the extra tumors and organs i was finding on critters would be used for system shock 2 style research, extra resources is a little underwhelming.

i don't think they like stun guns, but more importantly as long as you keep sprinting away from their shock zones they'll be pretty useless. this is assuming there aren't other enemies in the area

I'm asking whether Prey is a similar experience to that (and other Bethesda games). it was made by arkane, not bethesda. it is a similar experience to other arkane games. you're basically asking "i hate mcdonald's cheeseburgers, will i enjoy this gastropub gourmet kobe beef burger that happens to be near a mcdonald's logo?"
