    ARMA III

    So I'm doing the single player missions when I can whenever nobody else is on.  Holy shit they're hard.  From what I've experienced, they're very limited ammo and you can't always tell where the shots are coming from. I just got past the first squad of 4 or so guys in the forest before heading up to see my camp overrun, then the second wave of guys I get killed....every....damn....time.  Sometimes I just can't see where the shots are coming from, other times I just can't get enough cover. All I have are trees at that point, no rocks or anything. Any tips from anyone, or just wait until others are online and we can play co-op?

    Dirt: Rally

    Looks like a new rally game is coming our way. So far its just on Steam early access though. Looks good, and I hope they bring it to PS4. If not I might get it on PC.

    Yeah I find the single player does a good job of walking through the main controls.

    It does take some time to get used to. I still get hung up on some controls after 20+ hours. I suggest going to the NATO missions that I mentioned in another thread. It's only you and the open world with your weapons and all the vehicles at your disposal to get used to.
  6. What a complicated setup.

    R7 is a series of video cards.  There will be a more specific number with it, like 260, 270, etc.   2GB is a good start, but GDDR3 is generally used a few generations ago.  Not saying it's bad, just a bit older. You should be able to tell exactly what card you have by running 'dxdiag' from the text box at the bottom of the start menu.   The card you have will be under the 'Display' tab.  If that doesn't work, download CPU-Z or Aida64. Those will tell you more about your computer.

    So far so good. What video card do you have?
  9. I think some retailers sell Steam cards. EB Games (GameStop?) might be the best bet.
  10. Yes indeed I am Andy19. I bought the non-DLC version. It was already $65 without DLC so that's all my budget could afford with all the extra computer parts I ordered.   It'll be nice to have a 4th person in the squad. 
  11. Nice to see from a different perspective, although I had some pretty killer snipes in this one haha  Should have recorded it myself.
  12. Didn't realize you were recording this. That's awesome.

    Project CARS

    I preordered for PS4 mainly because at the time I didn't have a PC that could run it, even on minimum settings.  Even with the upgrades I've just got, my CPU is still lacking. Plus I've got other friends that are getting it for PS4.

    Upgraded PSU (from donor computer), added 4GB ram (8 total), and a video card that barely fit.  I'm almost ready, just need to get a 6-pin PCI-e cable to plug in the monster video card and I'll be set.  
  15. That's awesome Flyers, congratulations! Fuck those other guys.

    Project CARS

    I've pre-ordered for PS4.  I don't think I have enough of a PC to play it as well as the PS4 can.

    I did a comparison of my current GPU to the new one.  I think it'll work well.

    Almost ready.  Just waiting on upgraded CPU.

    Project CARS

    There's some good info about online play here. Some highlights that I like: Fill With AI - Hosts can elect to fill the grid with AI opponents if the lobby isn't filled with humansHost Migration - if the host leaves, someone else automatically takes over that roleFriend Lobbies - designed for you and your friends to play in a more trustworthy environment with a host determining when the game starts based on communication amongst your friends either by text (PC) or voice chat (PS4, Xbox One). Players can join Friend Lobbies either by choosing 'Join Game' from their Friend List or from being invited in by someone already in the lobby.

    Sigh....I get too caught up in things sometimes. My current workstation/"gaming" rig is old as fuck and can't really be upgraded due to a shitty OEM motherboard. I do however have a media PC that I built with individual components that doesn't really get used a whole lot, although it has an older socket FM1 motherboard that's getting almost impossible to find new CPUs for. So I went on eBay and found myself a CPU that will work, that's a decent upgrade, and I'll be buying a Radeon 7850 from a guy in town. So old specs of media PC: MSI A55P3 motherboardAMD A4 3400 2.7ghz dual core APUATI 4350 video card4GB DDR1333 RAMNew specs once everything comes in (about a $190CDN cost, or ~$150USD) MSI A55P3 motherboard (same)AMD Athlon II X4 641 2,8GHz quad core CPU ($50 ebay)ATI 7850 2GB GDDR5 GPU ($100 local Kijiji buy)8GB DDR1333 RAM (extra 4GB stick, $40 from Canada Computers)It's not a massive upgrade, but for the cost I think it'll be worthwhile. Even if ArmA 3 turns out to be a bust, it'll be nice having a faster computer for work and whatnot.  This POS is really starting to show its age.

    Steam Names

    I searched for that but came up with nothing.  I searched just BalzOnYer4Head and there you were.
