Ohh okay, but is same thing right? I mean pc play either ms store or steam.

Destiny 2 doesn't exist on MS Store PC anymore. If you buy it through the MS Store, it is simply an Xbox One/S/X/SX game. You can't actually play the game on PC.

However Destiny 2 supports cross play, meaning you can play the game on your Xbox of choice with other players on Steam, PS4, PS5 or Stadia.

I dont blame them. And since FromSoft is using Easy Anti Cheat, they've just exposed themselves as intending to sell on Epic Games Store as well. Games only go to EGS to die when sale dries out on Steam. And once Elden Ring is there on EGS, it'll be cracked in no time, just like FFVIIR.

Greed only will be your downfall, FromSoft.

You guys talk a lot of shit here.

Cracked version of Elden Ring was already out 20 minutes after it launched. The stutter is still on the cracked version, which doesn't have an EAC.

Go back to the other hole you came from. Dont need your shit here. I avoided your regular watering holes to avoid dramas with you then you come here with your drama, F-off to the other side.  Blocked.

Mod, warn me if you need to. But I needed to get things off my chest, after keeping things civil by avoiding this Asswipe where he trolls. Now he brings his shit here instead.

Lol what's your problem?

I don't even know who you are. Thanks for blocking me or whatever, but still unsure why you're still reading and crying over my posts either way? rclxub.gif

Aaaaaand managed to settled the Argentinian XBOX store conundrum.

Dosvedanya!

These days to survive inflation, one have to wear many nation's faces. Some just wear one face with a pirate hat and Jolly Roger flag.Arrrrrr! It's a struggle not to turn to the high seas. "Arrrr" copies cant run on Steam Deck with all the trimmings anyway..... 

Off to Elden Ring in the Lands Between. With VRR. Viva Argentina! rclxms.gif

Guardians of the Galaxy coming to GamePass on March 10. Unlike Avengers, GotG is actually a pretty good game.

there's an easy near 100k runes "exploit" very early in the game after getting the horse
grab any bleed weapon, there's a free one o the cart at first enemy camp
grab the golden pickle feet nearby on top of the hill
find the hidden portal near the third church of marika at eastern of Limgrave, near border
at new location, ride all the way to the end, past the huge tree with pots, continue onward until you see a giant white moldy snake lookalike thing, beyond there is a grace point with a house behind, bats in there can one shot you if you're still low level
equip your bleed weapon, go hit that elder dragon between its wing & leg, keep hitting and the bleed buildup will provide massive damage
eat the golden chicken feet when he's almost dead
continue bashing and you'll get near 100k runes + 5 dragon's heart when he's dead
*
The problem with doing this early is that you will ruin a questline in the Round Table.


QUOTE(TongCN @ Mar 2 2022, 04:21 PM)
Repeatable ?

If you want a real runes exploit farm, go to Lenne's Rise and then run down the path where a giant boulder would appear. Just dodge the boulder and it would roll off the cliff and will kill an enemy below, which would give you an easy 1952 runes for doing absolutely nothing. Then just fast travel back to Lenne's Rise grace spot and do it again.

Do know that doing this too much WILL break the game as you become over leveled.

Here's a vid for reference:



Tip 1: If you do it at night and you get an "Elden shower", the boulder trick may give you 9.5k runes per kill.
Tip 2: Unlike the video of only showing 1 boulder run, you can continue down the path for another 3 seconds and spawn a 2nd boulder.

It's possible to get nearly a million runes in an hour doing this.

Does this eliminate the Famous Dolby Atmos delay issue?

Personally never had any Dolby Atmos delay issue from XSX or PC for both games and movies when using eARC passthrough from the C9 to my Yamaha A3080 receiver. Sometime ago there was audio cutout issues from the PC, but that was due to my HDMI cable and also nvidia driver mess but I've already fixed it.

SHARC is not needed unless something in your audio chain doesn't comply to the HDMI 2.0 specification.

Audio delay issue seems to be very selective on my Series X. It's connected directly to my Yamaha RX-A3050 receiver with the provided HDMI cable, and a Ugreen 48gbps cable is used between my receiver and my TV.

It was very apparent in Halo 5, but other than that didn't really see it on other games

It's a bit mild on Halo MCC and Marvel's Avengers. No problems at all with other games.
*
Under the lipsync setting for your A3050, is it 0ms and [Auto] enabled? If so, that is what's causing the inconsistent delay. Also post process on the receiver should be set to [Direct].

Side note; A3050 also doesn't support VRR passthrough, so you're playing your XSX without VRR enabled.

What's your current setup ?
C9 already eliminate the Dolby Atmos delay issue actually through one of the firmware update
But not for C1 & CX.
Dunno what is LG thinking  yawn.gif

Currently i'm using XBSX > LG CX < Samsung Q950T
*
C9 never had eARC/ARC broken to begin with, since its launch. CX had issues because they decided to change how eARC/ARC works on that, I don't think there's a fix because it's simply the way they redesigned the signal path. Same goes for C1 because it uses the same redesigned signal path as CX.

Pretty sure it'll be the same for C2 as well.

If you google LG C9 Audio/Atmos delay then you can see bunch of results.

I'm aware. There was a long standing debate about it in AVSForum, but most of them boiled down to something in the audio chain where the user hadn't set up correctly.

I had a C9 3 months after its launch, never had a single issue with ARC and then eventually eARC (after the firmware update got published for my AVR). Just aside from a uGreen "fiber optic" HDMI cable being an nuisance, I think that counts as a hardware issue instead.

Yes, everything set to direct.

Plus have no lipsync issues with other consoles or sources. Only isolated to Series X, and even then only obvious on Halo 5.

Lack of VRR doesn't matter since my LG OLED E6 doesn't support it either.

Almost all games I select Resolution mode over Performance, so most of the time I am playing at 4K30 smile.gif
*
You could try adding a positive to lipsync under your A3050 to something between +6ms to +10ms. It may be a game specific related issue, I don't know because I don't play Halo 5.

But I have encountered 2 games previously that also has lipsync issues and that was Resident Evil 2 and 3 remake, where as all other games didn't have a delay. Later found out it is indeed a game issue because when replaying them on the PC, under its .ini settings there is a hidden lipsync setting that the user can change.

Can't check with Halo 5 since the game files are encrypted under Windows platform.

Ya.. I know it's all about money even from the beginning. Just that last time, they will think about their consumer when implementing something. That is not the case for now. Maximise profit is a must.

What if I told you that thinking about the consumer in the beginning was just an illusion to begin with?

I'm not defending them btw. But MS and Nintendo also uses the same practices, just in different methods to reach the same objective = your money.

At least use a method that highlight the benefits for your consumer. On paper at least.

Nintendo also get bashed when they announced the new Nintendo online subscription thingy.

It seems to me, right now, only MS PR is doing a great job when it comes to marketing their own products.  hmm.gif
*
Indeed.

PR wise, MS is doing a fabulous job in reaching out to their current and potential customers. They've learned from their past mistakes as far as communication with games are concerned.

However, equally they are also being a hypocrite when it comes to problems. They've swept all issues with Gamepass on PC under the rug. The Xbox app has not worked properly for months now, the gamingservices.svc that the xbox app is required to run with is a bitch uninstall, reinstall and get working. You can complain until the cows come home, they don't bat an eye about it. Of course nothing to do with console since that's the majority of where GPU subs are, but they're still related in one way or another.

Yes.

MS doesn't advertise it because Xbox isn't officially launched in Malaysia. But somehow PC gamepass works for Xbox too, you get the regular Gamepass for console. Of course you can't sub to Ultimate because that isn't officially launched yet.

yes, it's bad... real bad

DS4 batt life is already bad, DS5 is the worst

4 to 5 hours of normal gaming with the DS5 already depleted it down to 1 bar

guess I'm already too pampered by the xbox controllers, where a pair of eneloop can last me days tongue.gif

You're wrong.

What a lot of people don't realize is that the PS5 intentionally reports the battery to be lower than it actually is. When you get the "battery is low" notification, the controller is only at ~50% charge.

Why does Sony do this? Because it prompts the user to charge the battery at that level since Li-on is best charged at that interval level to maintain long term battery life.

Try using your DS5 after you get the "battery is low" notification, I guarantee you'll get another 3-5 hours of usage time out of it assuming your battery isn't damaged to begin with.

It notifies you again after another 2 hours or so.


QUOTE(greyshadow @ Aug 26 2022, 04:35 PM)
still it's a shitty move that requires recommend you to charge the controller at 50%
from there if you lost track of time then you wouldn't have any idea on how much actual batt level and it will impact your gameplay experience

it's like your car showing you the low petrol signal when it's only 50% full bcos most car doesn't recommend you to drive on near empty tank?
*
Dude it notifies you again after another 2 hours. You ain't losing track of time.

They had to do this because DS4 batteries were dying too quickly and everyone was bitching about it because they don't know how to recharge their controllers.
