Please finally fix the indoor lighting. It's insane how big of a mess the lighting is in some areas. Game goes from looking like a masterpiece to a total shitshow.

Playing on max settings with Ray Reconstruction.

u/Kesimux — 5 hours ago

PSA: If you want to use Ray Reconstruction, DLAA is the thing that actually kills your FPS....

I have over 170 hours in the game and played the whole time with max settings, DLAA, framegen, and ray reconstruction off. I've tried RR multiple times, but it always lowered my FPS in half. Now I tried it with DLSS set to Quality instead of DLAA, and I get 50 FPS more.... (Firts image is DLSS set to Quality, Max settings, Ray Reconstruction ON. Second image is DLSS set to DLAA, Max settings, Ray Reconstruction ON)

Best 4 player game with alot of player interaction with a 2.8/5 complexity based on my collection?

Hi. I'm looking for a 4-player game with a lot of player interaction with a 2.8/5 complexity. Big plus if the game works well for 3 and 2 players. My top games are:

  1. Arcs

  2. Dune War for Arrakis

Other favorites:

7 Wonders duel with both expansions

Dune Imperium with both expansions

Hive pocket

LoTR duel

LotR: Fate of the Fellowship

Seti

Slay the Spire

Spirit Island

Right now I'm looking at Cyclades Legendary Edition, but I'm not yet fully sold on it. I'm just mainly tired of introducing new board games to new players, which are often good but end up being multiplayer-solitaire...

Game froze 3 times during 1 hour of playtime and now the save won't boot up

Finally bought this game after hearing about the many "fixes" made to the game. This shit froze once when I was changing the settings, another time when I was exiting the equipment menu, and now the third time when changing settings. I can no longer load up the save. Any way to fix this shit? Game also freezes when loading up a different save.

Attack shark R6 mouse stopped working wirelesly with the dongle.

I've had the R6 for just a few days; it was working fine, but today I went into the downloaded software for the mouse and disabled the LED light on the dongle as it was a bit annoying. Now the mouse only works wired and with Bluetooth...

The LED on the mouse turns red when I plug it into the cable that came with the mouse but works fine with a different cable from an older mouse. Any way to reset the dongle, maybe? I did factory settings, but the dongle LED light on/off switch only shows up when the mouse is connected wirelessly to the dongle...

Do I need to get used to my new 300Hz IPS monitor or am I using the wrong settings?

Yesterday I got the ASUS TUF Gaming VG259QMR5A 300Hz 1080p 24.5-inch monitor after using an ASUS VG248QE 144Hz 1080p 24-inch monitor for 13 years.

The refresh rate is obviously set to 300. Variable OD set to level 4. Not using G-Sync anymore, as that caused some bloom if I'm not mistaken.

I'm mainly playing The Finals at 180 fps capped and BF6 at 160, and the games feel a lot smoother, but everything almost seems too smooth and less sharp even though I'm still playing at 1080p. Maybe I just have to get used to an IPS panel after using a TN for 13 years? I'm also using the default Racing mode with Contrast set to 70, Saturation set to 60, and VividPixel to 80, as the default colors looked very dull. I did some ghosting UFO tests, and those seem fine. I didn't notice any bloom or ghosting, not that I could tell at least. The good part is that I'm performing very well. Specs:

Am I doing this right? Just got the X68 HE

Just got the X68 HE, I've set the Press on 0.4 and that has been working great. However, I'm a bit confused about "Release". I though I'm supposed to set it low to 0.1 - 0.4mm for the best effect but it seems to be the other way around? Also are there any other settings I should change?

Any better 1080p budget monitors than the Koorui G2411P?

I've had the legendary Asus VG248QE 1080P 144Hz 24-inch monitor for 13 years now. It has stayed with me with 3 PC upgrades, but I'm looking for something slightly better, mostly in the color department, as the colors on the Asus are pretty shit. I have an RTX 4070 Ti Super, a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, and 32GB RAM. I tried 1440p by enabling DSR to check my FPS in games like BF6 and The Finals, and I wasn't satisfied, tbh, so I'm probably not switching to 1440p.

Some time ago, I watched a video from Optimum Glazing on the Koorui 24E3, but I don't think it's in production anymore, and it seems like the G2411P has replaced it. Are there any better 1080P alternatives?

Is this kind of USB A Female to USB A Male cable good for extending 2.4ghz wireless connection?

https://preview.redd.it/j4bc9myfx7ch1.png?width=507&format=png&auto=webp&s=9f078bfc0539546181cf92fc00e0b60a9b62cd63

I've been using the Cooler Master MM712 for a long time now with the 2.4 GHz dongle plugged directly into my PC, and I've always had weird camera stutter issues when moving the camera fast, especially noticeable in first-person games, but I always thought it was the game issue, so I tried to fix it that way. Turns out it's probably the 2.4 GHz connection. Would plugging the 2.4 GHz dongle into a cable like this and laying it close to the mouse help or should I buy something else?

Enemies getting bugged every single mission. First time playing Dishonored 2 (highest difficulty). Is this normal? I don't remember AI being so buggy in the first game

Are there any RELIABLE counters to the little bird?

Dude just went 60-1 with a little bird on Golmud rush. You can't even track them with the useless igla, because very little bird pilot with an IQ > 10 can fly it low to the ground. I'm talking about RELIABLE counters, so no RPG's as we had many Engi's with RPG's. Almost as cancer as planes in BF5

Worth starting this game in mid 2026?

Bought the game at release as I love Dune. First 2 hours didn't really click with me as the movement and combat felt really barebones and janky. Is it worth getting back into the game mainly for solo play?

There's no way someone playtested the constellation puzzles. Most obnoxious feature in the game. I was pretty excited for this and finally unlocked them...

Does the wyvern pet ever shut up? He's screeching every time I move 2 meters.

So the only use for this card is to move rival ships, or am I missing something? I can already move any number of my ships by 1 space with the move action lol
