That's bizarre. It runs worse than that on my computer, yet I've found things like this:



Admittedly not ideal, but the controls are at the very least responsive. May need to do some fiddling.

Even if TW3 (or any other visually demanding game) ran at a steady 30 frames per second - similar to most console games - I just couldn't live with that kind of MASSIVE downgrade in visuals. Not just running it at lowest in-game settings but also at a screen resolution that was popular in the early to mid 1990s.
It's one thing to play an indie game with stylized 2D graphics, or an old game from two decades ago, but it's a damn shame to have to make one of the most visually gorgeous games on the market look like ass.

I haven't been willing to invest in a capable gaming PC the last seven or eight years (around €1,000 to get something in the upper mid-range where I live, and the same in my country of origin, I think I paid around €1,200 for the last gaming PC I owned), but buying a PS4 or an XBox One - both of which run games with visuals that typically are the equivalent of a customized settings mixture of medium to very high in the PC versions, and at 1080p - can be done for not much more than a third of the price.

Guys did you see the new Far Cry 5 teaser picture? Holy shit, I told you the games industry is run by a bunch of leftist cucks. They're going for an alt-right hillbilly theme this time with crazy white cultists in Montana. This is really going to go well...

Heatstreet already put an article dissecting this bullshit, cucked Liberal gamers are already salivating at the prospect of shooting up crazy white cultist "Republicans" in a video game. Good job Ubisoft! As if fucking up Assassin's Creed wasn't enough.

RE: Video games
I have Far Cry 1 and 2, but the last time I played 1 was when I was 13-14 if I remember correctly and I never got around to playing 2. I was introduced to the series when Far Cry Instincts (the Xbox-exclusive spinoff) was released in 2005. Ubisoft should port Instincts and its sequel to the PC instead of going SJW.

I've always been hyped for the Far cry series, never had the chance to play one. Can you join the 'bad' guys just like in Skyrim?

If that is true that really fucking sucks. Sigh. I have every game in the series and it is one of my favs.

Oh well. It is what it is.

I didn't get very far in FC4, almost entirely because I found the game world dreadfully bland compared to the other games in the series. 3 and Primal were great though. And so was 2 quite a few years ago by now, although it had some flaws of its own.

Here is one thought. What if the developers make this game and backfires where people actually start to feel close to these guys on picture.
Btw, these guys surely know their guns and we will probably get nice arsenal to potentially use.

"Far Cry 5 will introduce airplanes to the open world shooter series for the first time - as well as an attempt to satirise the rise of the far-right with its representation of fanatics in North West America."

Also some pre-rendered character intro videos in the article.

RE: Video games
Yeah, I saw that FC5 teaser pic and it was just a plain old...

Facepalm2

Fucking stupid. These games have all taken place in countries where there's open rebellion or utter lawlessness. And new we're expected to suspend disbelief that a bunch of redneck religious fanatics are throwing around lead by the ton and the Federal government isn't sending in the military?

Bitch, please.

They're going to take a serious financial hit on this one. This kind of shit is not playing well anymore. Unless of course it's true what's being said more and more frequently. That these companies are no longer funded primarily by sales revenue but by the elites as propaganda arms.

Strange. When I think of forced conversions, death for apostasy, FGM, regressive culture, fanaticism, and public executions, Christianity is not the religion that comes to mind. Sad, FC 4 was one of few games that I enjoyed enough to do all the side quests and Easter eggs. The prison level was great.

RE: Video games
Canadian videogame developers are the Queens of interactive SJWism. I hope Far Cry fails and takes Ubisoft Montreal with it. Just like I hope Bioware continues to fail and eventually gets sucked into the electronic arts abyss.

These developers are playing with fire. Gamers on a whole are not like movie goers. I would estimate that the male audience of gamers is 50-50 cucked-MAGA. They will not get the sales they want if it's a straight up progressive jerk off session.

Thankfully this hobby has Japanese and eastern European developers churning out great stuff.

Halo wars 2, that's the only one I can think of right now.

What is the best game anyone can find involving fighting and killing Muslim terrorists or evil Muslims in general? A rep point from me if in it you get to kill guys who shout "Allah Akbar" as they attack you. Can be an older game.

Would absolutely play that.

It's called IS Defense, and it's amazing. Play that when I just wanna shoot and not think too much.

Better update that rep point, Mage. Laugh

You already have my rep but I updated the comment.

Judging by trailer, graphics are good but are you stranded to sitting in one place and using one weapon only?
Also I was imagining that Muslims would look more like Muslims - with turbans, beards and shirts till knees, in this game they just look like any other militant.

Still I will play it and hope it is good. I hope a more advanced game on this topic exists or gets released someday.

My current old time favorite was playing as Byzantines or Vikings against Saracens or Turks in AoE2, but certain recent events made me wish for something fresher and gorier.

RE: Video games
Yeah, you play as a machine Gunner in a nest. You get waves of isis terrorists that get more intense, each level has you further back in Europe. You can upgrade stuff as you kill more. It's sort of a rogue-like.
