Ugly In The Morning posted:Mine just hit 15 years in December. What was even on Steam before Half Life 2? Counter Strike and nothing else? If I remember correctly it was just HL1, its expansions, and the semi-official mods like CS, TFC and DOD. CS:S launched shortly before HL2 as well. also you could play games like chess directly inside the chat client

Maybe you changed the adapters mode by accident? There's button combos you can press to change how the adapter presents itself to the system. You generally want Xinput for PC stuff.

Johnny Truant posted:cani play Witchehhhh 3 with the Switch Pro controller on my PC? Steam natively supports the Switch Pro controller so if your PC has bluetooth you can just connect it directly, no adapter or special software required. I think USB also works.

QuarkJets posted:It's possible that it's the HDD controller that's bad; remove the drive and plug it into a computer, or put it in a different enclosure. That was my thought too, but if it's the same model as in this video then the USB interface is integrated onto the drive itself so there's no separating them

Yeah definitely don't use mouse acceleration in shooters, it screws with your muscle memory. You don't have to disable it globally across Windows, most games nowadays have a "raw input" setting that bypasses acceleration when enabled.

20 inches is pretty extreme, even at professional level most players don't use that much area: https://aiming.pro/what-sensitivity-do-pro-esports-gamers-use CSGO players get close but you're generally not doing many 180 flicks in that game so it's not as bad as it sounds. repiv fucked around with this message at 00:51 on Jan 8, 2020 |

Ciaphas posted:the gently caress kinda resolution is 2048x1080 That's DCI 2K, one of the standards used for digital cinema video. They use a slightly different aspect ratio to consumer displays so DCI 4K is 4096x2160 rather than consumer 4Ks 3840x2160, and likewise for DCI 2K vs consumer 1080p.

https://www.naughtydog.com/greenhouse/job/859780?gh_jid=859780 Looks like we might be getting TLOU2 on PC eventually, Naughty Dog is hiring graphics devs familiar with Nvidia GPUs and DX12/Vulkan APIs. They might be boilerplate requirements but with more Sony stuff coming to PC now it's not outside the realm of possibility. repiv fucked around with this message at 22:15 on Jan 19, 2020 |

lordfrikk posted:And yet RDR 2 on PS4 comes on 2 discs. Pretty sure that will soon become the standard with the PS5 unless they’ve got something up their sleeve. They can't use 100GB discs for games yet because the PS4/Pro and base XB1 can't read them, it's part of the 4K Bluray standard that only the XB1S and XB1X currently supports. Next gen they should be able to ship games on 100GB media.

Anonymous Robot posted:drat, I never considered that! That would probably work. USB is only guaranteed to work up to 16 feet so chaining normal extensions probably won't work over such a long run, but there are active repeaters that should do the trick e.g. https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Active-Extension-Cable-Female/dp/B01L81WQ2O

Det_no posted:Since we are talking about that kind of thing, Nvidia's sharpening filter also messes up some games when you try to apply it globally. I've had to disable it for theHunter COTW, Rising Storm 2 and Tabletop Simulator. applying sharpening globally is probably a bad idea anyway since it'll apply to any desktop apps that happen to use hardware acceleration, not just games your text rendering will get all messed up

pentyne posted:If I had to guess its probably expensive and time consuming in a way that leads to little perceived benefit. Its got to be exponentially more difficult as you increase the game's complexity both in graphics and functionality. The way games implement indirect lighting creates a sliding scale between dynamic-but-ugly and static-but-pretty, and the trend has been towards the latter. The graphical quality we're accustomed to nowadays is predicated on the developers using a huge rendering cluster to pre-calculate most of the lighting, which doesn't work if you allow the players to knock down walls and buildings however they want, hence why the Battlefield games suddenly went from fine-grained destruction to scripted events that let them fade between two sets of baked lighting for before and after the trigger. The push towards realtime raytracing has potential to finally allow higher quality in fully dynamic scenes, but that's still a few years away.

Mzbundifund posted:Not that you're wrong about capitalism, but Valve probably would have to get a ton of paperwork done in order to get the permissions from jillions of publishers in order to have a previously unscheduled big sale, and especially with Valve's workplace model, that's probably not trivial to organize. Steam sale dates always leak once Valve starts talking to devs/publishers too (there's just too many to keep it under wraps at this point) and we haven't heard anything about an early sale. This site keep track of the leaked dates, or presumed regular dates if nothing has leaked yet: https://www.whenisthenextsteamsale.com

Cowcaster posted:technically once you cap it out (typically by doing the naughty boy thing) you're also permanently covered in blood. only a cosmetic thing but the only ways to reduce it are teensy tiny and annoying to do so you're kind of stuck like that. They patched in a hidden way to remove demon status without grinding good boy points - when you reach the cap, a "refugee rescue" dispatch mission becomes available. It requires high level staff and will likely kill many of them, and takes a full realtime week to complete, and only awards 10 GMP, but completing it resets your demon points to zero.
