Thread for Gamers 2: Press Start to Continue

[Onekawa-Nukanor]

Just finished the first misison in Supreme Commander, at least for the 4th or 5th time.

Fuck I love this game. Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance, GOTY, even though it came out quite a few years ago.

Been playing a lot of Wii U recently with my sister, and I did a lot of stuff today, as well. Mostly Nintendo Land, but quite a lot of Lego Avengers (Or pretty much Lego Marvel), as well, which is like an open world Lego game that's multiplayer. I want Lego City Undercover, as well, but sadly it doesn't seem to be multiplayer (Why you would make a Lego game not multiplayer, I will never understand)

This has been about my extent of gaming recently other then failed tests of trying games on my PC.

[Corrian]

Just finished the first episode of Burial At Sea in the Bioshock: Infinite DLC.

Man, that was a cruel ending, but it was good.

Now to move onto Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons. Trying to start picking things off I need to finish.

Also, The Last of Us completely dominated at the DICE Awards

And I think I might possibly know why my games were having problems. I thought I shut down my virus scan but apparently it was still going and it detected nothing after a 115 hour scan.

I also got Chrome up now WITH another virus scan going, Spotify, Facebook, and so on, and my CPU usage is still rather high, at like 80% to 90%, but compared to the constant 100% it is certainly an improvement.

I think it may be time to officially retire Firefox.

Still had weird problems with it crapping out before even having a scan slow it down, though.

Why you retire Firefox?

[Corrian]

Why you retire Firefox?

Because using it on my computer is bogging the hell out of it. Mostly with Facebook but even without Facebook I was having serious problems with it.

This is interesting.

[Czechanada]

Really hard to get tired of something that only exists on 4chan.

It just seems like it's everywhere. *shrugs*

That being said, I found that the community at r/pcmasterrace is friendly and helpful, with stuff like game key giveaways and build tips.

If only NSG could be more friendly and helpful.

Indeed.

I try my best to make NSG to have such an atmosphere.

[Boomhaueristan]

Valves new game they're making looks badass. I'm picking Hank.

Took you long enough. Come, embrace Chrome/Opera.

The Nightly version of it is a lot less resource intensive.

LIIIIIIIIIINK

I don't. I become the atmosphere of being friendly and helpful. Through changing myself I change others. Through changing them I have changed the atmosphere.

This. Even the goons at PCH only speak of "pc master race" in jest. I, personally, have never seen anyone who wasn't deliberately trolling use the term "Master Race" seriously.

Oh, my friend, I would disagree. The term "Master Race" is taken seriously amongst PC gamers, not as a pretension or intended slight , but out of a genuine desire to improve and help gamers and gaming. One of the facts scribed in the wiki of r/pcmasterrace (The "Most Important Page on the Internet" of which I refer to in my signature; Everyone should take the time to read it as it is filled with an immense amount of useful information.) summarized it in a most eloquent fashion that I always love reading as it drips of passion and wit.

Fact: Console gamers are not the common enemy. Console gaming is.

They give you an inferior system, charge you money for it, and make you hold on to the pieces of junk for 8 years before they give you the option of (measly) upgrades. When you take into account the business strategy of Sony and Microsoft (not Nintendo), you'll find that it's all just one big greedy systematic ripoff of uneducated consumers. So, do yourself and the industry a favor and go with a PC. It's open, it's cheap, and it's damn powerful. Your best interests are always at hand, no matter how arrogant some of us may seem. For anyone that's offended, I am truly sorry... but if you're going to get offended over this guide then you probably had no intention of giving PC a chance in the first place.

Also, I highly recommend the game Insurgency.

I like the SC series too. Even SC2 can be fun as a casual game. I'm more of a recent newbie, but still I'm learning. Aeon is definitely my favourite faction, a lot of fun to micro, I really love their cannons and they have the privilige of containing some of the most awe-inspiring experimentals (Tempest Battleships, Galactic Colossi, and definitely CZARs).

[Rich and Corporations]

But you guys do think console gamers are stupid

i don't think it's specifically console gamers who are stupid

And I think I might possibly know why my games were having problems. I thought I shut down my virus scan but apparently it was still going and it detected nothing after a 115 hour scan.

use webroot antivirus, it's decent, not the best, but it's far far faster then the rest. just have reasonable browsing habits and you'll be protected

Also, I highly recommend the game Insurgency.

Why?

I know nothing about it and I am not willing to search for it at this time.

[Wolfmanne]

Is it just me, or are all the games I want to get pretty much are from Kickstarter or from some small gaming company? Why is that none of the Triple A companies are catching my eye?

Have you even played Democracy 3?

I'm trying to enjoy that game but it frustrates me too much to have lengthy sessions. I don't like getting assassinated inevitably. That's not realistic...

O.O

I've never had THAT happen to me...

"that's not realistic."

You're probably not accounting for the opinions of your political opposition groups.

Also, I highly recommend the game Insurgency.

Then don't ask. If you don't want to do your own independent research, to form your own independent opinion, don't ask.

What is: Opinion?
