    Lamarr the strelok reacted to Kane99 in Resistance Series ever making a comeback?   
    The Resistance series was a huge IP for Sony back in the PS3, PSP and PS Vita eras, but fans haven't seen anything new in the series since 2012's Resistance: Burning Skies which released on the PS Vita. But, there hasn't been a main console exclusive since Resistance 3 back in 2011. Do you think we're due for a sequel or a reboot maybe? Maybe they will remaster the series or remake them, that seems to be a big thing with studios lately. 
    Anyway, what would you like to see the Resistance series go? Will it ever come back?

    I do remember the Resistance Series as well. I used to have it on my PS Vita back in the day - I wish it would come back just because of how generic the first and third person shooter games have become. Sony is going all in on remakes and Live Service so unless it comes under one of those two categories, it's definitely not coming back anytime soon.

    It's as simple as that. I can't get away from the game. To be honest, I can't remember the last time I played anything else, let a lone what it even was.

    I'm currently on Mint. I've tried so called gaming linuxes (pop os and manjaro) to try to get ubi connect to work with no luck.I can't really tell the difference as far as a gaming os goes.They mostly work ok but EA app and ubi connect I can't get to work on any of them.By all means, try other ones I'm fairly certain you're smarter than me. I  really like Manjaro but I get around better on Linux.

    Lamarr the strelok reacted to killamch89 in least fave weapon?   
    I'd say the weapon type I probably like the least are bows and here are my reasons:
    They take long to reload. Related to my first point, if you don't get a headshot, you're pretty much screwed. I find that in a lot of games that include it, arrows tend to be hard to come by and while you can go pick them up after killing someone, it's like a witch hunt to find those arrows sometime.

    Before I address the topic I need to ask, is there particular reason you posted this to the PC sub-forum? On the face of it this looks like a topic with relevance to players on any platform, not just PC. If there is no good reason for this being here I will move this to the General Gaming Forum as that seems like a better fit.
     
    On topic, I've never been a fan of short/mid range rapid fire weapons like SMG's. I'm never accurate with them and they bleed ammo. I'm more a fan of single shot power and accuracy over a high fire rate. If I wanted a short range hip fire weapon, I'd have a shotgun instead. The one gun of that type that I have liked is the Spray n' Pray from Fallout 4 mostly because you don't need to be accurate with it and it's OP as hell.

    Lamarr the strelok reacted to Shagger in Does PC gaming reduce battery performance?   
    Batteries don't last forever. They loose thier ability to retain a charge after being charged and depleted so many times. So whilst its true gaming increases the power output of (what I assume is) a laptop making a battery deplete faster, that's not actually the problem.

    Linux Distros short for Distributions are just different versions of Linux created by other people. Since Linux is an open-source operating system, anyone can make their own version of it and call it whatever they want. Ubuntu for example is a Linux distribution. It uses the same code, but expands upon it to make it their own. Ubuntu has other versions like Kubuntu, Edubuntu, Xubuntu and a few more. Kubuntu is like Ubuntu but uses a different file system I believe. Xubuntu I think is supposed to be a low resource OS that can run on older hardware and Edubuntu is more geared towards education purposes. 
    There are a ton of different ones out there, Wikipedia has a good list of them, even puts them in their own categories - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux_distributions

    First off, great thread. This could indeed be very helpful.
     
    Second, peripherals are simply external devices one attaches and/or connects to a PC (or even a console) to enable specific functions. A keyboard or a mouse are peripherals, a controller is a peripheral. A display, like a TV, monitor or whatever is a peripheral. The remote for your TV or cable box is a peripheral.
     
    When it comes to building PC's, some more specific advice is required. I'd do what I can for people, but to go though everything I know it would be inconveniently long for all off us. So, I'll offer instead a Q/A style thing on this thread. And not just me, I'm sure others will try thier best to help.. Ask, and I'm sure the community will do our best to answer.
     
    The only stupid question is one that's never asked.

    Lamarr the strelok reacted to Reality vs Adventure in Trump gets 3rd indictment for his role on Jan 6!!!! Traitor trump traitor trump traitor trump!!! He's going to prison-orange skin orange suit   
    Trump just went to court and plead not guilty and the magistrate that day warned trump to not make any threats as part of his terms while he awaits trial and Trump verbally agreed to those terms. The very next day Trump posted on his Truth Social:
    “IF YOU GO AFTER ME, I’M COMING AFTER YOU!”
    This is a clear threat to everybody. Now that Trump violated his stay out of jail card to await trial, it is up to the court to decide what to do about this blatant threat. Is the court going to hold Trump in contempt? Give him a gag order? The court even has the right to make Trump sit in jail or even house arrest while he awaits trial. Will the court hold Trump to any accountability? After that threat, the proctors asked for an order that would prevent Trump from sharing any information to the public because that info that's going to be given to him and his lawyers has the names of witnesses and others involved that Trump could directly attack by announcing their names. And you bet he will do just that. The court needs to take extraordinary measures here. Trump needs to be treated as a mob boss. It's his intention to incite violence against everybody including the judge, jury, prosecutors, witnesses, everything in between. He said it!!! “IF YOU GO AFTER ME, I’M COMING AFTER YOU!” Anybody else awaiting trial says some shit like that, they will be thrown in the slammer to wait trial.
    On top of all this, Trump's charges in Manhattan took a turn for the worse against Trump because Trump was supposed to hold onto documents to be used as evidence and now Trump has supposedly destroyed those documents he was supposed to keep. Now he could possibly get new charges against him for 'spoliation of evidence.' That most likely will even be used against him in the judges decision as it increases his guilt. 
    And this isn't the first time Trump destroyed evidence. His charges for taking classified documents, Trump asked employees to destroy video surveillance that was needed and now Trump got 3 more obstruction charges for it. 
    This guy is a criminal through and through. He's going down hard. And he will bring down the republican party with him. And the republicans still are protecting this guy. The other presidential candidates aren't even trying to go against Trump except maybe one candidate, Chris Christie. All the others aren't even running for president, they are hoping to be Trump's Vice President or hoping to be a part of his administration. Because why wouldn't you capitalize on this opportunity to benefit your own presidential campaign??? Shit, even DeSantis is now running on a campaign where he has stated if he becomes president he's going to "slit throats!" WTF? Presidential candidate is running a campaign how he wants to slit throats of Americans? And Trump is running a campaign how he wants retribution and to punish Americans and he's gonna "come after you." 
    What the fuck is wrong with these republicans? They don't care about being a president for all Americans. They want to be president to punish Americans. Do you think their fascist obsession will ever end? Do you think that one day it will all stop or they will ever be satisfied? No. Hell no. Not ever. These republican presidential candidates and republicans in congress are going to lead this country into a genocide if they get their way. Because their obsession won't ever be satisfied. They can't just one day stop and say that's enough. Not when their entire campaign is to punish the American people.

    Don't forget that he had been ripping up classified documents and flushing them down the toilet in the White House. Plumbers were called in to deal with the blockages, and that's how that one came to light.
    It'll never be enough for them until we're all enslaved. Democrats will be labeled enemies of the state. The Democratic party will be illegal. It's "fall in line with what we want or be ready to serve time like North Koreans". It would probably result in executions for some. We're under direct threat from the entire right wing. It's no longer safe out there. I had a sign in my front yard that said "Stop the war on women's rights" and some chickenshit stole it. So I'm going to put one out there calling the pussy out. If he wants to fuck with someone, try taking me on. He'll regret being born in his last few moments.

    Did you really expect anything else? Of course he’s going out of his way to intimidate anyone on the prosecutor’s side. He has most likely put a hit on them, which would explain his rotating door of lawyers leaving him. They don’t want to get their own felony charges themselves, so they abandon ship. And the prosecutors that are on the case right now as I’m typing this aren’t the first prosecutors to take up the case. Also, anyone who thinks he’ll face trial is unfortunately deluding themselves. He won’t be here. He’s going to run away to Russia (or possibly NK) like the little bitch coward that he is. He’ll find one of his Nazi lackeys with a pilot’s license to fly him out of the country. Plus a couple to lick his balls and serve him like slaves on the trip. And whatever country he chooses is going to be a nonextradition country. Or one that he happily drops to his knees, the way he does for Putin. We all know Putin won’t return him to America. Don’t forget that he said he was “in love” with Kimmy. Ivanka will be happy he left the country. She might get an actual break from him raping her.
    Maybe I’m the only one that thinks this, but it’s the most likely scenario from what I’m seeing.

    Today Trump got his third indictment in Washington D.C. and the prosecutors has also identified 6 co-conspirators who aided in Trump's traitorous scandal. He has 4 federal charges:
    1) Conspiracy to defraud the United States
    2) Conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding
    3) Obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding
    4) Conspiracy against rights
    Trump now has 34 felony counts in Manhattan for violating campaign finance laws to pay hush money to a prostitute, 40 felony counts in Florida for taking classified documents, lying about it, and then obstructing the investigation, and 4 felony counts in D.C. for his role in the coup attempt on Jan 6 2021. That is a total of 78 felony counts. There is also a prosecutor in Georgia who is about to indict Trump for his 4th indictment on racketeering charges for computer trespass (illegally copying data from voting machines) and influencing witnesses which could include how he tried to get the secretary of state in Georgia to somehow miraculously find more votes for Trump. 
    On top of that, Michigan has now criminally charged 16 republicans for their fake electors plot. There were several states involved with the fake electors plot and those republicans in others states are now being investigated for their role trying to stage a coup. All 16 republicans in Michigan are charged with 8 felony counts:
    1) Conspiracy to commit forgery
    2) Forgery
    3) Forgery
    4) Conspiracy to commit uttering and publishing
    5) Uttering and publishing
    6) Conspiracy to commit election law forgery
    7) Election law forgery
    😎 Election law forgery
    These fake electors from multiple states all tried to disenfranchise voters and their true representative by creating fake electors and trying to get vice president Mike Pence to sign off on it which would have overturned the entire election and given it to Trump. Luckily Pence refused and probably saved himself a prison sentence. 
    This is going to be very crazy in the USA the coming years. These traitors are straight up fascists who are sociopaths and could care less about this country or anybody's rights. They are here for one purpose, to destroy democracy and force a dictatorship Nazi Germany style. That's who they are. Several Proud Boys members and Oath keepers members, who are far right street thugs, gang members, and fascist militias, have already plead guilty to seditious conspiracy for their role on Jan 6 2021 and now will go to prison. 
    Trump's charges in Florida, taking classified documents, no doubt will get obstructed by the judge handling his case. Trump appointed Judge Cannon himself when he was president and she is a Trump loyalist who has already made herself look incompetent and partisan. She no doubt is going to do whatever she can to let Trump walk free. Judge Cannon has already moved the court to a MAGA dominant county in Florida so no doubt his jury will all be Trump supporters. We can expect Judge Cannon to block witnesses, toss charges, and obstruct. Luckily, his other charges are in cities Trump had little influence in judges like Manhattan and DC. 
    Even if Trump is found guilty and went to prison, he can still run for president and even be president in the USA. Strangely, in some states felons can't vote but they can be president? The irony. And republicans in congress are actively abusing their powers to try and obstruct Trump's charges. They have attacked the Manhattan prosecutor. They are trying to defund Jack Smith who is the prosecutor for Trump's classified documents and Jan 6 charges. And republicans in Georgia are trying to eliminate the prosecutor there to protect Trump from new charges soon to be coming. And of course Trump himself will do what he does and incite violence and say it's all election interference. Blah blah blah. This will stand the test of time, the test of the justice system in the good ol USA. If republicans succeed in obstructing all of these indictments, then the USA will officially be a banana republic.
