Happenstance Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 I cant see it working properly anyway. Mods are usual so delicate and constantly having problems, especially when combined with other mods that people will be pissed everytime something goes wrong if they have paid. Either way though, messing with mods for me was just a bit of fun when I was finished with a base game. Theres no way I am paying for them.

Either way though, messing with mods for me was just a bit of fun when I was finished with a base game. Theres no way I am paying for them. yeah that's true actually...there's two sides to it actually. People will have certain expectations for mods they've paid for. Also thrusting these kind of mods into the limelight may now mean that more casual buyers might not realize they aren't buying an official mod and that causes its own slew of issues. I'm also with you on the use of mods..mods just aren't something i would spend $$$$$$$s on.
Esequiel Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Ended up buying a budget ready made PC, not spectacular but enough for what i need right now. I5, 8GB DDR3, decent case, 2TB HDD, GTX 750. It will do for now and is better than my old I7 920.
Esequiel Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Hi guys, does anyone know a decent fan software controller other than speedfan? I cant for the life of me remember my old one :/
flameboy Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 I'd be interested to know as well...speedfan doesn't seem to anything for me!
Esequiel Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 MSI Afterburner is good for the graphics card, looks like i will need hardware for the case fans :/
Esequiel Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Can anyone help! My internet to my PC is terrible, i have my laptop next to it which gets 15mb while my pc gets only 2. It may be due to windows 8.1 but i dont know, anyone have any experience with this problem? Am i better just getting a new wireless card? --------------------- Edit - Fixed it. Windows 8.1 reserves bandwith for some reason, going into reg edit and tweaking a few things and i now have 15mb on the PC as well.

I've noticed my Windows 8.1 machine sometimes struggles with HD video wonder if it's related.
Esequiel Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 http://www.registryrecycler.com/blog/2013/06/how-to-speed-up-your-internet-in-windows-8/ This is where i went. However after going up to 14MBps it is now sat at 1. It could be my wireless card, ill be sticking a cable in it on Tuesday to see. Either way, hugely fucking annoying.
Happenstance Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Got my invite to the GOG Galaxy Beta today, their alternative to Steam. I only tend to buy games from GOG when they arent available on Steam but if this turns out to be any good then I'd be more willing to buy new games through GOG as well.
Jonnas Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Generally speaking, I prefer to get games from GOG whenever I can. Part of it is because I appreciate not having my games permanently connected to a network. Still not sure if I would adhere to Galaxy or not (I do like that they're keeping it optional), but it's nice to see a competitor to Steam. And an European one, to boot.
Esequiel Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Frustratingly my PC still bottlenecks my speed. I'm on 8.1, anyone have any ideas? Wireless I get 12 meg on PC and 38 on my laptop.
nightwolf Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Frustratingly my PC still bottlenecks my speed. I'm on 8.1, anyone have any ideas? Wireless I get 12 meg on PC and 38 on my laptop. Looking around it seems this issue has been going on for ages, since 8.1 was released and I've not found anything but clearing your DNS cache, which given the website, you've already done. There is also suggestions here that maybe you could try? https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/de9a6f29-775d-4cb4-852c-8e338d907e80/networking-issues-after-upgrading-to-windows-81?forum=w8itproinstall Otherwise my only piss poor suggestion is to change your OS as it sounds like it's not going to be fixed any time soon.

Having installed and played around a bit with Galaxy. I think once full featured I'll prefer it to steam. Right now the downside is the library and friends, because I have no friends. Otherwise I prefer the UI to Steam and I think it runs much smoother than steam does.
Happenstance Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 If anyone is interested, it's the Humble Bundle Store's Spring Sale at the moment. They've got some good prices and they change daily. https://www.humblebundle.com/store
Happenstance Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Steam sale starts in 2 weeks http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/140959-Valve-Softwares-Steam-Summer-Sale-Begins-On-June-11
Sméagol Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Don't think I will buy a lot, but I may look into X-com: enemy within. I got that itch again after the sequel announcement. Tales from the Borderlands may interest my brother. Darkest Dungeon sounds interesting, but I'm not up for it now. Perhaps, it's time, I finally got one of the GTA's haha. Then again, I'm not likely to play it soon, and I even have Just Cause 2 sitting unplayed in my library. Nah, never mind. Of the rest, the Metro Redux bundle interests me the most.
Happenstance Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Ive bought Tales from the Borderlands so far and I might get the Homeworld Collection, I'll sleep on that one.

Have fun with Tales from the Borderlands! edit: Episode 3 will probably.. 2 weeks maybe? Soon in any case, ratings have already been assigned, and Telltale's community manager (or whatever) already played it, it seems.
gaggle64 Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Dino D-Day is 90% off on Steam. I think you all know what you need to do.
Dcubed Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Pretty much the entirety of my wishlist is on sale... Must be strong... must wait for dailies... :shakehead:shakehead
Nolan Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Of the rest, the Metro Redux bundle interests me the most. Don't forget one half of that redux is on GoG now. Also, I'm late in saying it, but D4 Dark Dreams Don't Die released on the 6th. It's the previously Kinect Exclusive game from Swery65.
Jonnas Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 After GOG's sale, I'm holding back where I can... but I know I'll end up buying a few games on the very last day. Shantae: Risky's Revenge is 2,50€. I've always wanted to play that one, but never owned the right handhelds. I'll probably buy it during the sale, is there anything about this PC version I should be wary about?.
flameboy Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Pretty much the entirety of my wishlist is on sale... Must be strong... must wait for dailies... :shakehead:shakehead Same! So far I have limited myself to Paparrazi and Sir You are Being Hunted!
