Low and behold, I've been sent yet another X1 beta code. This time though, I'm looking for some entertainment. So, send me your best tech related jokes and I'll give whoever makes me laugh the hardest during my Sunday hangover pain will be crowned the winner! GO, BE FUNNY!!!

 

Edit: Quote this comment when replying so I don't have to look through the whole thread, I'm lazy like that! 

Well I played my first game on the X1, I thought the graphics looked and played great, better than how BF4 looks which I still thinks looks good, as for titanfall I am crap at it but will be buying it for sure and so glad I bought an X1 now the filter has been removed improving the visuals a lot.

I got a chance to check it out a few hours ago thanks to thechronic hooking me up with a code, still never received one for signing up, and I am glad I did get to briefly check it out, as I think I will be skipping it. Just not my cup of tea at the end of the day. Just seems all over the place and a tad too chaotic. Ironically I really loved the movement of things during the tutorial, but once I checked the game out, did not think it really translated to the actual matches well. Just turned into your typical MP FPS. I barely saw any people wall running in the game, and whenever I tried to do so, it really did nothing to actually enhance things as it could and should. Maybe it was just the matches I played, and others are playing the game using the new features that supposedly separate it from other FPS's, but based on what I have seen, do not think I will be taking that $60 plunge to find out. 

 

I made the extra effort to play it like the tutorial teaches you and it really doesn't add anything to it. This game has been hyped out to be something it's not. It really is just another run and gun, but it just so happens to have mechs and some parkour thrown in. It's definitely a competent shooter in it's own right, it doesn't come across "messy" or anything. It's just....meh :/ Definitely not worth the 5 years of development anyway. How they couldn't even come up with an SP in that time to really showcase the game is a little bewildering. And 100% not worth the asking price :no:

Yeah I had hopes for this, but I think I'll pass until its on sale for a significant discount.

    • they should stop making bad games that no one asked for
    • Nice rant! Expletive after expletive after expletive. Poor petal, I've touched a nerve. Would you like a tissue to wipe those tears away. Btw, nice one calling Neowin trash. Why would you stick around when you disrespect this site and the people behind it? Just go away if you feel that way.

IDM includes web site spider and grabber IDM downloads all required files that are specified with filters from web sites, for example all pictures from a web site, or subsets of web sites, or complete web sites for offline browsing. It's possible to schedule multiple grabber projects to run them once at a specified time, stop them at a specified time, or run periodically to synchronize changes. Easy downloading with one click When you click on a download link in a browser, IDM will take over the download and accelerate it. You don't need to do anything special, just browse the Internet as you usually do. IDM will catch your downloads and accelerate them. IDM supports HTTP, FTP, HTTPS and MMS protocols. Changes in Internet Download Manager 6.43 Build 1: Added the ability to download MP4 files from web sites where previously only TS videos were available.

    • This is of course "clickbait" WTF? It is literally your example but tech based. A "clickbait" title is a sensationalized headline designed to manipulate readers into clicking a link using things like "fear" rather than delivering objective facts. A "clickbait" headline also usually provides little value compared to the hype generated. How does this headline not qualify? It's a generic often reused headline that is overly sensationalized. Oh no! "millions" can't use this app anymore. It has no basic facts like what f*cking app. You read the article and it's the Samsung VPN which no one cares about and there is a million free VPNs. How are you defending this ######? Headlines like this (and among other things) make me read Neowin much less than I used to in the past. It's trash...
