re: Fallout London- anyone playing?
Posted by Joshjrn on 4/26/24 at 6:58 pm
[quote]I didn't notice any issues on PC. Got about 10 new quests as well[/quote]
The primary complaint from PC players is that they got basically nothing. No better visuals, no higher frame cap, no actual ultrawide support, nothing. It took Bethesda two years to patch a dozen and a half bugs and ad...

[quote]Went to the MET over the summer and they have a collection of Van Gogh thought it’d be cool to see starry night. Walked into the room and noped right out after seeing the mass of people huddled around a picture you can pull up on your phone.[/quote]
While I would certainly avoid the crowds...

Like most poorly optimized games, FO4 doesn’t handle well swapping between between being GPU and CPU bound. From what I’m reading, it reminds me a lot of when I was playing Jedi: Survivor. Counterintuitively, the “best” performance comes from locking your frame rate at the lowest that’s comfortable ...

From what I’ve read, there’s still a weapon debris effect that causes crashes for discrete GPUs, especially RTX GPUs. Something to try turning off if that applies to you. ...

The reaction from console users seems to be “meh, but fine”, at least from what I’ve seen.
Most of the screaming is coming from PC users, as this update broke tons of mods for little to no discernible gain. ...

Sounds like the update is a disaster so far. They apparently didn’t even actually add UW support; the effect of what they did was the same stretched unplayable mess as editing the .ini manually :lol:...

[quote]On PC it appears the update broke the ability to run the game past the 72 FPS cap at least in the traditional way most players were probably getting around it. This "next gen" update literally halves the FPS.[/quote]
Do you know if they used frame rate in physics calculations? Bethesda is n...

[quote]A lot of locals avoid surface streets to take the interstate to get around town. That doesn't help traffic issues.[/quote]
Of course; it’s running through the middle of our city. But the next time you’re sitting in BR interstate gridlock, pay attention to the percentage of cars you see takin...
re: Looking to upgrade the RAM on a relative’s computer. I have a couple questions.

[quote]1x16gb would work fine.
Often times you can buy faster RAM than motherboard spec, it'll just run at the motherboard max spec[/quote]
While true, last I checked, JEDEC 2x8 was like $30 for a kit, so not really worth stressing over. ...
re: Fallout London- anyone playing?

Just checked Steam, and it doesn't look like the update has rolled out, or at least there is no news entry on the subject. I'll check back this afternoon. ...
re: They gave Reggie Bush his heisman back, now give LSU football

[quote]Not sure why there was such a push for this. He cheated at that time. The rules changing do not undo this. He is still a cheater.[/quote]
I put cheating that directly affects the product on the field (PEDs in baseball, etc) in a very different category than “cheating” that has nothing to d...
re: I'm fascinated by persuasion techniques. Here is a good X post on the subject.

My interest is a little piqued by their saying the system max is 16gb. Makes me wonder whether any of the RAM is soldered. ...

[quote]So if she posted a surety bond before and went through the trial and all of that, she now has to potentially put another up?[/quote]
Generally speaking, a commercial surety is a one off. Think of it less like general insurance and more like insuring a single event. Once that event has occurr...

[quote]So back to prison, most likely?[/quote]
That's a more interesting question. I'm sure the AG is going to request that her original bond be reinstated, whatever that was, or to returning her to being held without bond if that was the status quo before. Whoever her attorney is will argue that s...

[quote]From life in prison to free and clear.[/quote]
Not necessarily. Her conviction was overturned. The case is now going to be back in a pretrial posture. There is no jeopardy attached. It's as though the first trial never happened. ...

[quote]How did she get life in prison for that to begin with?

Because multiple participants in a rape is by statutory definition First Degree Rape (used to be Aggravated Rape), and the sentence for First Degree Rape is mandatory life without the opportunity for parole. ...

If I were to ballpark, I would guess the OT is, easily, 85%+ conservative. Likely more.
Sorry it doesn't reach the 99% conservative echo chamber you're looking for :lol:...
