  1. Yes, it's definitely the players that are at fault for playing the game the way they want using the mechanics provided... not the developers & publishers fault for releasing a game that's a buggy mess. There's a very big difference between a large inventory becoming becoming a bit slow/stuttery and completely corrupting a save file, the former is just about acceptable, the latter isn't.

  2. Rdr2 is a snooze fest. No idea why reviewers gave it so much praise. Plot is boring. Gun play is tiresome. Runs like a dog on pc. I haven't finished it. I forced myself to get 3/4 of the way through the campaign and just can't get any further because it's so boring

  3. There's suppose to be a carrying limit... I sell all junk, there's a vendor on every corner. I break down all weapons except the ones that are highest DPS. Everything is samey, I don't know why you're collecting junk. There's no multiplayer. There's no third person camera, no reflection shows the character model, besides 2 mirrors in the game that render to texture. So there's no real reason to customize your character's looks. So just break down your stuff. Other games like fallout, they have over the years made large inventories stable, however it can cause stuttering and hitching in your inventory, and when using items / switching weapons. There's no game with a limitless inventory.

  4. Jesus this game never stops giving. I think... I'll wait... And maybe consider it after i eventually upgrade... After I try RDR2

  5. It's not going to happen to you. You can play the game for 100 hours and have thousands upon thousands of crafting materials and still land at 5-6MB. If you use exploits to get millions of items, well, you're in trouble.

  9. I remember when Skyrim came out. Bugs galore but turned into one of the best games ever. This game is shaping up very nicely as you delve into it more.

  10. I am beginning to think that for most AAA titles these days, devs are (being forced into) skipping the beta phase altogether, and jumping from "alpha" straight on to "release". Bugs and glitches are always inevitable, but some of these issues I am reading about seem "difficult" to miss during any regular testing stages. Allow me to take advantage of the situation to repeat my usual "blurb" that, contrary to popular corporate belief, the much-lauded Agile and Scrum frameworks for software project management are simply not working to specifications. :-P

  13. I love buying these games years after release. By then there are complete editions with all DLC included at a fraction of the cost with all the of bugs worked out etc. im only now diving into the Witcher 3 and will do RDR2 next year.

  15. The other two act like one no one has bought one or that no updates have ever been released, lmao. The device is incredible and I've been exceptionally happy with mine. After coming from a Motorola phone plagued with issues, it was a pleasant surprise to get Microsoft's latest bet where they are actively trying to resolve the issues it has, which have been far less aggravating than those of Motorola's.

  16. so the x(>45w, possibly 65w as the intel H mobiles series TDP-up limit is) 5900 chips is ~25/14% better than a ~35w and older gen 4900? that doesn't sound like much gain honestly. the exciting part however is amd is shipping octa core chips running at 15watt, and having a decent iGPU for 720-1080p (non-AAA/ultra)gaming, while intel is still struggling to match them.

  18. "Not for commercial gain". Eeeeem, even though a lot of people don't pay for the vaccines directly from their wallet, the vaccines are made for profit. If pharma companies wouldn't make profit out of them, they wouldn't be researching and making them. Governments buy vaccines in bulk and deliver them to people via their health system. So, it's all really for commercial gain, ultimately...

  19. Ads, Ads, Ads...

    OK, could @Mindovermastergo through and remove every app (even though you will run into apps that can not be removed without using adb), sure. Will it likely help? Possibly, but as he has stated he did a factory reset and the issue came back, so that leads me to believe that the issue is an app that is installed with the phone (again it will be very troublesome to diagnose this 100%) So he is then left with 2 feasible options: 1)Look into a custom ROM, which may be a good solution, or 2) continue to use Ad Guard and be happy with the results. Me personally would choose option 2, without a very clear idea of what these ads are (if I could see them, I might be able to tell where they are coming from) I have only ever had a problem like is being described on a phone that was given to me free by the Government (low/no income or getting benefits from the state) and it took me weeks to find the culprit.

I forced myself to get 3/4 of the way through the campaign and just can't get any further because it's so boring One of the most enjoyable gaming experiences I ever had........That game's campaign is second to none. sure, if repetitive missions with wayyyyyyy too much dialogue and sitting around waiting for stuff is your thing. but don't just let me stop the unpopular views here, BOTW is a 70% game at best, and if it didn't have the name zelda would have been largely ignored. It's boring, slow, graphics suck, gameplay is lame, and it has essentially zero redeeming feature. nostalgia is a powerful drug for most nerds and without nostalgia BOTW would have gotten the reviews it deserved. You sound bitter. I hope you're okay.

  24. EA Play isn't coming to Xbox Game Pass for PC today after all

    Its included free in Gamepass Ultimate. So if you have GPU then you will get EA play games as well. If you have any remaining time on an EA Play account it will be converted to GPU time.

  27. Can't safely remove external HDD as apparently it's in use??

    Whenever this happens I go to Disk Management and take the drive offline. This closes any open handles the system may have on it. Then I set it back to Online and can safely remove it.

  29. Edited my post, as I decided I'd rather not get into it over this, so long as you're referring to politicians and not "we the people", as many of us are against the abuse of both countries when it comes to human rights and spying. Yes - I should've clarified. I meant "the US" as an institution and a government, not Americans. I don't tend to hate large groups of people. Even when they're "responsible" for something bad, it's likely due to propaganda and anti-democratic moves on the power holders' part. There's a reason why there are numerous things that 70%+ of Americans support but less than 30% of politicians do.

    I would close all apps on your phone, disable notifications for everything, seems like you've done that already. Now plug it into your phone into your computer, enable usb debugging. Then open a command prompt and connect to the device over adb. (unless you are worried you have a virus and will spread it to your computer). Could could always try it from a linux live cd in that case. then try adb shell ps | grep u0_ this "Should" give you a list of all running packages on the device. You'll probably have to google ones and find the culprit. Not sure if that command works for 7.1 or not. I would also check under developer mode and see what services are running.

    You didn't fix anything but just covered up the issue. You have spyware on your phone and possible malware. Disable your Adguard temporarily and uninstall any app and addons you installed since the ads have been an issue. Maybe run a anti-virus program like Avast or Malwarebytes and if still no success I would consider a factory reset. The long term solution is getting a phone that is actually still supported since using a device that doesn't get updates is not a good idea.

    That would be awesome, but I imagine it's more likely they'll make a new one. The criticism about the lack of content isn't exclusive to you so I hope they'll address it with a new entry.

    I use AdGuard on my phone, and it is so nice to be able to play a game, browse the web, etc without ads showing up! Also this is a good guide for removing bloatware from your cell phone.

  40. The Mandalorian

    Uh, most of the time? They did that TWICE... That was it.... They also introduced NEW characters (to the show) as well, such as Ahsoka, Bo Katan and Boba Fett. This isn't Star Trek, with a different "alien of the week" every episode and so on. It's a specific story set in a set region of the SW galaxy, the Outer Rim. Of course we're going to see certain characters and locations more than once, with quite logical reasons to DO so, too. If you need help on a big job, you're not going to recruit a bunch of strangers you'll have to pay... You're going to turn to your friends.

  42. Cyberpunk 2077 gets a new hotfix for consoles, will roll out to PCs soon

    At least they didn't hold back releasing on PC. Games like this shouldn't be on console, they're too weak and inherently limited. If you want to "game" buy / build a PC. If you want to kill some time after your homework, buy a console.

  43. UK: 4.7m families struggled to pay telecom bills this year

    Honest question, does that include a TV license? As I understand it, even if you don't own a TV, you still need one if you're watching anything on any device... which if the £155 price is an accurate annual price, then that alone costs more than a year's worth of the lowest tier internet shown above. The TV licence is a completely separate bill. ...okay... but I don't know anyone that buys an internet connection and don't watch videos/shows... TV licence is for watching Live TV or BBC catch up only. For all other VOD, you don't need a TV licence

  47. The US calling out the Chinese government for things it also does is just too funny. Kettle calling the pot black. And this has nothing to even do with partisanship, at least for a few decades now. The US is a one-party surveillance and police state in that area. And in foreign policy. "it's about hUmAn RiGhTs AbUsEs primarily against Muslims" they say, to make their imperialistic agenda look good, while they also fund the Israeli apartheid state to commit war crimes against Palestinians.
