On warzone. It's the cheats and hackers that have drawn ire. The Pc gamers are the culprits.
Absolutely no issues playing against xbox guys.
Keyboard and mouse speed is never the issue. It's the cheating little bitches that ruin it.

......chill, Sony said pre-orders wouldn't go live at end of event, and it seems to be a mish mash of some are, some aren't. I just pointing out that it would have been better to have a set date, especially when they said they'd have a set date and give people notice. Christ, this place. :fp:

Yup it's PC that's ruining it, I think Console and PC cross play should be separated or at least optional. PUBG is just Stadia (on controller), PS4 and Xbox so no one has and advantage.

Posts inflammatory remark. Gets response. Plays down intent. Asks people to chill.

Yep. Everything seems fine.

Yeah it's a real shame but Activision have been proactive with it.
Guy I play with posted some quotes from cheats who'd been banned (Id banned) and were griping about it.

Free access makes it easier too but has also made it such a huge success.

Sony clearly changed tack after the strong showing from Microsoft. They had to respond with a price and some games. They knew then people would pre order immediately.
The chaos adds to the desirability. The same will happen next week for you guys.

Both companies have made generous offers now due to the healthy competition. Like I said last week its good for us as customers.

It was an app issue. Someone posted a working link and people ordered.
Its not about arguing. It's about self awareness.
Accept you're a troll and move on. Don't hide from it. Don't embace it like gamer forever either though.

That's an entirely different argument, of course it's good for both to be under cutting each other, I've always agreed with this and both offer great prices.

Sony could have said pre-orders are on Friday, or Monday or whenever, why would they change tack? Even then, it's a valid criticism of them leaving it open ended. I criticize MS and Sony, in fact on Sony I keep it to a minimum because people are f**king crazy and one jibe and here we are......again.

I'm not gonna comment on the fact Spiderman MM and Horizon 2 are on PS4 cos holy f**k!

Sony are sneaky strawberry floats. They always create this for pre orders. I'm not defending them. Just saying I'm not surprised.

That whole 'slip' about maybe not having enough stock or the chips issue. All designed to increase panic that there's no stock.
Standard for Sony.

I've decided to embrace it, said this a while back, I spent literally years not fanboying but I still got labelled one. Not cos I was attacking Sony (I was complimenting them if anything) but cos I had the GALL to enjoy some Xbox games that didn't review well. I'll never get to gamerforever's level, I don't wish for Sony to fail and leave the console business :lol: but I'll allow myself to get excited about some MS exclusives.

So you should be excited. But making jibes and getting a small reaction is nothing really. I just love how you go from bullish to defensive.

I enjoyed it more in the football thread tbh but that was when Liverpool weren't awesome.

Has to be a wind up.

Wouldn't be a surprise (to me anyway), DF were saying this back in Feb -

the 4.3TF Navi at 1080p still commands a nigh-on 30 per cent lead over the 9.2TF Navi at 4K.

Obviously the PS5 has at peak a extra 1tf on top of that but will that make up the 30% difference? We shall see in the months and years ahead.

Product Launch 101, I'm pretty certain it's standard across the industry. You'll be amazed by how many suddenly become available a couple of weeks before Christmas and they'll all get snapped up by desperate punters.

If this transpires then Resetera will hit Nuclear levels and I'll post just a laughing emoji in an Xbox thread and get dog piled on, just you watch.

I enjoy when you compliment Liverpool or Klopp quite obviously through gritted teeth. It's nice. :wub:

Denster is basically Wes Mantooth from Anchorman when it comes to Jurgen Klopp. "I hate you Jurgen Klopp, but Goddamnit I respect you."

Re: The Xbox All Access deal, with Klarna and 24 months of Game Pass.

Is this likely to be a launch-window only type of deal, or likely to be an ongoing thing?
