GMballistic Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Anyone playing TC:Wildlands and getting pi**ed off with the annoying radios being more or less constantly on? I mean I know you can turn it off in most vehicles but it just seems to be annoyingly playing at every settlement etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Nope, not fussed at all. Makes sense, they don't really have TV out in the wilds of Bolivia but everyone has a radio, plus it injects a bit of life to the game as otherwise all you'd hear is the odd car rolling past or your own footsteps. It does, however, bug me that all the cars default to radio on when you get in them, even if you just got out after having it turned off! First thing I do when getting in a car is hit G to turn that noise off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First thing I do when getting in a car is hit G to turn that noise off. I wouldn't say it makes sense for the same radio station to be playing at every settlement. Some of them would be playing something different or nothing at all. Personally I'd much rather just hear silence (the odd car, birds, my footsteps etc) than the Bolivian people spouted rubbish from the radio everywhere I go.

marzman Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Anyone have any recommendations for a 2 player game both local and online for the xbox one. Pretty much worn out Fifa and Infinity Warfare now, looking for something open world style or shooting. Most of the good ones seem to be online multiplayer only. Lucky enough the other half is alright we still have lads night with pizza and xbox haha Rocket League? Absolutely fantastic game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blocko Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Mass Effect is just installing 😎 Although I've heard of a few issues so hopefully there's a patch downloading too, nevertheless looking forward to the game ðŸ‘🻠Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Not to sort that cable management Yes, for sure. Currently contemplating wiring from CableMods, but not the cheapest option... Sexy braided stuff? Could always make your own? Yeah, will probably end up doing just that Ok, tidied the SATA cables somewhat and replaced the mobo and GFX power cables with BitFenix items 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strudul Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) Now to change / mod / paint your RAM to match the red / black theme... (Same for that blue LED on the CPU block) Edited March 24, 2017 by Strudul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Blue LED on CPU was on purpose, to add a little contrast and show that it's the heart of the machine, think of The Matrix (blue) which is inside Optimus Prime (red) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So offline update didn't work, had to reset to factory but I kept games and apps... that worked. Seems it points to internal hard disk errors so I hope it's not on its way out well at least until scorpio is out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fodder Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 So my Xbox has been behaving since my rescue.... Titanfall 2 is on sale with games with gold for £15 so thought why not.... Enjoying the campaign, not difficult but I'm feeling it's going to be short and basically an extended trainer for the multiplayer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPod Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Anyone else excited for dirt 4 ? Seriously can't wait dirt was a game me and my mates use to dominate online but is so fun cause one mistake or loss of concentration and it could mean from first place to last with 90% of track complete haha. Also landrush is back and looks just as hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT350 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I bought a new laptop but that sunuvabitch gets hotter than Suzanna reid in a Saudi heatwave. Are they supposed to? Never had a gaming laptop before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Some can, and tbh yours is a frickin' powerful one so it's gonna get a little warm. Def not suitable for use on a lap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) Gaming laptops are always gonna run quite hot when pushed, I still own an older Dell XPS Gaming Laptop, and it was the best on the market back in the day, but yes, when pushed it would get hot, to the point that I found a workaround to control the fans to blow at 100% all the time while gaming (thank god for headphones) If PC gaming, then it's best to get a proper tower based one. Although the idea of powerful gaming and being mobile is great, it does have it's drawbacks. Even the super powerful Asus watercooled laptop, is gonna be noisy, and only properly "cool" when at home on the watercooling station. Which at that point you might as well get a proper homesystem Edited May 26, 2017 by BulletMagnet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 MS do their E3 thing tonight at 2200, showing off the Scorpio for the first time. Price will be £429, so it's going to need to be very special AND have some triple A exclusives. Scorpio £429, PS4 Pro £350 at launch; Xbone £429, PS4 £350 at launch. History repeating? As an Xbox gamer I'm eager to see what it can do, but tbh I've no desire to upgrade right now. I don't have a 4K telly anyway and I'm definitely not buying a new one just for this!
