    William5849 got a reaction from Praesi in I suck at Battlefield 4   
    BF4 is one of those games that I don't think K/D matters as much. As long as you are playing the objective, you will do well and the kills will come with it. What good does it do when that one guy camps in a tank the entire game and racks up 100 kills and the team loses. Ive seen people go negative, but had a higher score than anyone. Unless your in team death match, focus of the objective.

    William5849 reacted to Glenwing in Are 27" 1080p monitors that bad?   
    It's a matter of opinion, and it also depends on viewing distance. MOST people who say 1080p looks horrible at 27" have never actually used 1080p on a 27" monitor, they just say it because everyone else says it. Some people have actually used a 27" 1080p monitor, and they're entitled to their opinion, although I've met people who think 1080p looks horrible at 24" and even at 21.5" so... yeah.
     
    Like I said it also depends a lot of viewing distance and eyesight, depending on how far back you sit it may look better or worse in your situation than for other people who comment on the matter. Personally, 1080p at 27" doesn't really bother me.

    William5849 got a reaction from TheSLSAMG in Alienware Area 51 Looks like a 90's PC   
    As an owner of the Alienware Area 51, I know how to build a computer and I have build one before. I just wanted a turn key solution for once. But starting a topic for the sake of a stupid opinion is beyond me. How dare you make fun of somebody's purchase. I don't agree with the Apple watch, but I love tech and I'm not going to go around slandering people saying it looks like crap just because I didn't buy one. Let me do with my money what I wish along with anybody else. It's things like that that  put a bad name on the pc community. You most likely have an iPhone and here you are saying hey it looks stupid.
     
         And for the people that say that people that have an Alienware don't know about computers. My goodness. Are you that ignorant? How can you possibly lump every owner into that thought. I know more tech than you would think. The looks of this computer is completely personal and I'm tired of seeing PC gamers attacking other PC gamers because of what they buy. Lets actually try to be better than people that play on consoles. I've even seen people here attacking people just because there hardware choices weren't in line with theirs. Way to steer people away from PC gaming. Grow up please.

    William5849 got a reaction from Unlikelyjoker in GTA V: Anyone has an Armored Kuruma?   
    I have one and I have gone up against people that have one as well. There are 2 weak spots on the windows on both the driver and passenger sides. Specifically, the easiest one to hit is the driver side window. The windows are like a horizontal shape going front to back. You need to aim near the back side of the driver or passenger window. The point is to hit the driver. You're probably not going to destroy the car. It's almost impossible to hit anything from the front of it. I have had a 5 star police rating and sat still as they shot at me for 5 mins and the car was fine. I did get hit through the window occasionally though. It's a hard shot and the car is OP. But that's why I drive it lol. I have gotten killed several times out of it by people that knew what they were doing.

    I agree with the best answer. A good example of how companies don't give a demo is with Rainbow Six Siege. They are offering a beta only if you buy the game. What crap is that?

    Ok, several things. Getting this is entirely up to you. But I have not encountered any hackers. Others have. You may not. That's online for you. I bought off of steam. Although I can see when my friends are playing the game, it doesn't have a way for you to join there game. Social Club is what GTA 5 uses to allow players to join friends games and such. If you bought from Rockstar, your friends just wouldn't see you as playing the game and the achievement or hours you put in. That's up to you.
     
    I assume by other sites you mean g2a? If so, if you want to save a few bucks go ahead. You should be able to find a steam key on those sites, so you get to save some money and use steam at the same time.

    1. At level one, there will be a ton of scripted mission you can do. I just went through those until I got to level 12 to do the heists. You get more leveling money from completing those missions than you do from playing the random jobs which can be accessed on your phone. So watch your phone texts and calls. Answer them, because if you accept those jobs, you will be doing them with other people anyways. Those will also help you learn the game as they are pretty easy to begin with. Those can range from stealing cars to robbing stores.
     
    2. In the open world, you car is locked to any other player that isn't you. That's the only time that the damage to your car matters. If it gets destroyed in the open world, you need to have insurance or you will have to re purchase that car. In heists and other jobs, it doesn't matter. If your car gets destroyed, it wont be when you leave the mission, race or heists etc.
     
    3. When you start at level 12, you will get a call from Lester. From then on, he will have you do the heist called the fleece job. You can do any heists that you want though. That one has to be initiated from your high end apartment though. Otherwise, you have to join someone else. With that being said, you have to have a high end apartment to start your own heists.
     
    4. Yes, as someone mentioned already, you have to be in passive mode. Here is a passage from the GTA 5 Wiki about it. "
         At any time after your first death, GTA Online offers the option to enable Passive Mode. Passive Mode makes your character immune to PvP firearm and melee damage in the open instance of your GTA Online world, and likewise prevents you from dealing damage to others. However, this only applies to when you are on foot. Be careful as you can also be damaged by others running over you in a car. Passive Mode costs $100 to activate and lasts 15 minutes."
     
    5. Well, there is an armored heist car but you have to do heists for it to be purchasable. Right now, I would suggest buying what you can with the money you have because for the most part, it doesn't matter. I've gone into heists with a Zentorro. There are some armored trucks that you can purchase though. Those may be better and can seat more people.
     
    I am a new player as well, so if I've said any thing wrong, feel free to correct me!

    The game runs insanely well, I've cranked up all settings except AA at 1440p and I get 70+ FPS with an average of around 85.
     
    This is with two GTX 980s.
     
    The game tells me I've got 8GB VRAM, when I obviously don't but even though thr game says I need over 6GB for the settings I've got, the game still runs and runs flawlessly at that 70+ FPS.
     
    The best bit though? Online is actually quick, I gave up on the PS3 version as games took so long to get into. Well I'm off to bed, it's 2am here and I have work in the morning.
