General Videogame Thread

By god, Bethesda added native DLSS 3.5 support to Starfield in the first update (ignoring the launch patch), along with FOV slider and Brightness/contrast controls!

Starfield Updates and Mod Support – September 13, 2023

Thank you to all of you playing Starfield and your support. We are absolutely blown away by the response and all you love about the game. We’re also reading all your great feedback on what you’d like to see improved or added to the game. This is a game we’ll be supporting for years and years to...
bethesda.net

Edit: Nevermind, despite the new GeForce Game Ready Driver updates referencing performance enhancements for Starfield, and Bethesda’s Starfield update notes referencing adding DLSS support, they apparently meant it will be coming in the future.

I would say it was an overeager reading comprehensive mistake on my and many other thousands of Nvidia GPU owners, but I think Bethesda were a bit cheeky with the wording of the patch notes.

Might have already raised this on here before but has anyone played Bioshock? I tried getting into it before but couldn't so trying to give it another go. People rave about it but i'm struggling to get into it.
 
My heavily modified ship (that was originally a Spacer ship I hijacked). I have not invested any skill points in the Ship-related upgrade tree, so it is pretty rudimentary, but get's the job done and has plenty of room of crew, workshop, infirmary, armory, engineering bay, and captain's quarters.

Played it back in the day, was brilliant then, most probably a bit dated now. The sequels are a bit blah though.

What level did you take the ship? I only started out the other day and haven’t done much. Do you shoot the ship and it gives you a boarding option? Loving the game so far.

The first is great, the second is shite and the third disappears so far up it's own arse it's untrue.

I think I commandeered that ship, which was the half the size and was lower overall level, when I was around L13.

With that one, I saw it landing at an outpost on a planet I was on, stalked to the landing zone, killed some of the Spacers that came out, ran inside to the loading bay, boarded, killed everyone inside, then took the ship back to New Atlantis to register and then heavily modify.

But you can damage ships in combat enough to disable them (very low ship health) and then go close to them, target, and then use the board option, where you have to do the killing and takeover to hijack the ship.

Cheers bud, it’s weird how you can stumble quite randomly into a hobby at 41 that you appear to have some talent for. Main thing is I enjoy it anyway and I was enjoying it 10 months ago when I started and was pretty poor.

Maybe in the next life you'll be racing them for real.

And also be 5 foot 5.

Pretty much this.

I tried Starfield last night and first impressions are it's not going to be for me, but glad the majority are liking it, perhaps the fact I had 2k hours in elite affected that. It's been slim pickings recently it seems for those AAA titles.

Brilliant game mate. Would you kindly explain exactly why you're struggling to get on board with it?

Do the crimson fleet quest line at the end you get 350,000k for completing plus 1 of the best guns in the game is in the quest mission eye of the storm. Full quest takes around 4 hours.

All u need to do is get arrested, I did it robbing from a shop on New Atlantis.
 
I know the next game am going to play, probably in 6 months once I've did everything in Starfield!

My next game is Lords Of The Fallen

Trailer >



Spoiler game play>

Feel a bit overwhelmed in terms of the combat. I'm thinking I might just go on easy and then I can just shoot everything in my way. I jumped into it thinking I wouldn't have to overthink things.

Probably doesn't help I always go into games that are visually great so I usually overlook these things. Something like Deathloop I really got into.
 
Starfield has been added Geforce now and what a difference it makes.

Won't be playing on the Series X again until they up the framerate from 30fps

The streaming is perfect and I have a 1440p monitor and have all the settings cranked up to ultra. I'm on the ultimate tier on geforce now so I use a 4080 rig. I'm getting between 80-100fps but in cities it drops to about 50fps but it's still better than a Series X. Once DLSS is included in the game the frame rate should rise significantly

I’ve got a 3070 but won’t be able to play on 4k until later in the year, may well jump on my pc then, hopefully it will cope.
