the futureshop ones are never to busy. They usually have MORE then enough stock and let everyone in right away. You can get there just before they open no problem and get your copy with ease.

well I"m going there because of the free NECA headshot figurine with Cog tags.. lol.. or else I wouldn't be going there anyway. Besides, it's only 5min walk from my house.

Hmm just tried this online and....

I've never been so underwhelmed in my life.

Lag is measured in seconds rather than ms. Therefore people warp like we're playing on our old 56k modems back in 1997. Hits don't register properly and people are glitching about the map and sound effects are out of sync too! :s

Needless to say I'm unimpressed. :/

Your probably playing people not even close to your location like across the seas...

Are you sure its not just you? I watched a couple of leaked multiplayer gameplay and seem very smooth to me.

Agreed.

Try waiting until the game actually comes out before passing your judgement on the multiplayer...

Oh and Spookie, if you want to stay away from glitchers why not submit a player review against them and file a complaint? Submitting a player review will give you a less chance of joining their room.

It doesn't for me, I did that for PGR3. Ended up giving up in the end as I kept getting lumped with them.

System link? My connection is fine. sub 80 pings in WoW, 15 pings to local servers in TF2.

If you want a game on time, or before the release date stick with gameplay/game (same company now) or shopto. Game tend to be ruthlessly efficient when it comes to dispatch and Shopto work hard to get the games out as they are only a small company and need the biz.

    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I have a TV, but it is not used for normal linear TV, only streaming and it is not a Samsung and the best bit is, I don;'t and never have had a Instagram account. The only thing I have to do with Meta is Faceache and I only keep that just for the messaging part.

      But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.

      Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates

      By zikalify · Posted

      Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
