Well that's confusing.

when you quoted me just right now the whole format messed up. is it only on the format or in my response as well?

 

it's basically like (23/60) so it should be like 0.3833 but i don't know if people compute it differently or like what vegetablestu said with the french.

You can bark like a dog, but that won't make you a dog.

You can act like someone you're not, but that won't change who you are.

 

Finished Crysis without a discrete GPU,15 FPS average, and a lot of heart

 

How I plan my builds -

Spoiler

For me I start with the "There's no way I'm not gonna spend $1,000 on a system."

Followed by the "Wow I need to buy the OS for a $100!?"

Then "Let's start with the 'best budget GPU' and 'best budget CPU' that actually fits what I think is my budget."

Realizing my budget is a lot less, I work my way to "I think these new games will run on a cheap ass CPU."

Then end with "The new parts launching next year is probably gonna be better and faster for the same price so I'll just buy next year."

The formatting of the time; nothing of your own volition.

I see .2 as 2/10 or 1/5, so 12 minutes.

oh no. i'm sorry, i didn't mean like time format. i meant post format when you quoted my response. i was looking at it differently and was expecting me quoting another guy and you would also show up if you quoted my response but i forgot this ain't steam. been out of the posting scene here in ltt for a long time. forgot how it works lol. sorry.

That's 1/10 of Comcast monthly data cap. You better not have siblings that want the game also.

Why?  You only have to download it once then send it to them locally.

Seeing what exist?  The original RedDead ? It very much existed unless i dreamt playing it for hrs on end ....

Yeah, it's like a ghost to me xD I've always heard about it and seen just enough to think it existed but I never properly see it anywhere

You'd hope that most of the game would come on the disc, so you would only have to download a small amount But that would be using common sense.

Then there's updates, which there will probably be tons of eventually, but even in the first week I'd expect one.

Or simply stop wasting money on useless paperweights and wait for the PC port and spend $50 on a SSD...

 

Based on the 105gb file size I'm happy I decided to boycott consoles, imagine if this becomes the norm for every game in 2020... You wouldn't even get 20 games on a 2tb drive...

When I got GTA V for PC a couple years back I was getting 5mbps down and it took two days straight of downloading to get it!

I just downloaded Forza Horizon 4 and it took the same amount of time, only because it had to download 170gb's for some reason.

My Fallout 4 is 107GB after mods and the DLCs. But still, not everyone has the download cap to be downloading triple gigabyte games. Physical media for games like this might still hold some relevance after all.

if available 1440p, if not 1080p60. I dont even watch that much, around 11-12 hours monthly. Videos stream in higher bitrate if your bandwidth can handle.

Hmm i guess 1440p takes waaaay more data than 1080p60, just seems weird because i've easily watched double that in a month and not hit 100gig. Guess my bit rate is too poor =[

Well, 1440p30 is 4 times the bandwidth of 720p30, or the same bandwidth as 720p120. So.... yeah, 1440p will chew more data than 1080p will.

Yeah, though i've easily watched double his youtube hours within a month and not pulled anyway near 100gig never mind his claimed 500gig (or more). I understand 1440p eats more data, but over 5 times (or say 3.5 times more since i could of miscounted) seems a little mental to me lol.
