Hl2 stuttering issue report

As for games? Well i dont know what to begin with, even resident evil 5 has a problem that makes the game crash on startup, some claim that if you have a 22 monitor there is a problem and the solution is to change monitor:shock: nice job capcom. Other games like dead space have more minor problems, like the mouse accelaration which is more severe in games like ghostbusters, others have broken controls like rise of the argonauts, others simply crash randomly like silent hill homecoming or have weird lag spikes and others perfom like crap and have terrible texture and pc resources managament allocation like gta iv or saints row 2.

Whatever the case regarding multiplatforms its advisable to avoid the pc version due to endless issues because the developers are too bored to port the game right on the pc.

SemperFi10

That issue was fixed in an official patch.

Also, I didn't ask for evidence, of course there are buggy PC games, I'm just asking for solid evidence that PC ports are MORE buggy than console ports. I'd say they both have their bugs, but neither is prevalent over the other. Also, I'm not talking about system-related issues.

:roll: That patch came out suposelly to fix the issue and still the issue remains unfixed.... lol, i nean lol, you dont know anything and you try to prove me wrong...for crying out loud.

As for ports, well what i said is that console games ported to pc and called "pc version" have ton of weird issues. That will be all.

EDIT: there is even a user at that article link you gave me complaining that he still has the issue :lol:...let alone what a big fail that patch was!!

[QUOTE="zomglolcats"]No, I don't really see how I'm wrong about everything, and I'm not wasting my time arguing with you. You don't like PC gaming, that's fine. A lot of other people do. That's kind of why we visit the PC gaming forum.dakan45
No? Ofcourse you dont, you dont buy multiplatform games like i do, and trust me i buy alot of them, if you did then you would see how many of those games are full of problems on pc and how unoptimized they are, also the fact that there are no patches to fix the issues. As for the rest, its just a cheap excuse to say that you cant really debate with me and just back away thinking i am a troll. Thats where you are wrong too. I love pc gaming but i play casual games, all those games have those problems and the pc versions are a cheap joke. At the end having a pc for those games is a nightmare and you d be better of with a console. Thats what i said to pc to begin with, The tc did not ask if it worths to have a pc for pc games like eg: torchlight, he asked if its worth to have a pc to play multiplatforms in order to save money, but with the requirements and problems multiplatform games have on pc , let alone the price tag which is leanning towards being the same as the consoles.....well you are better of with a console. Thats what i said, not that i hate pc or anything, but ofcourse you got to hate me for making your favorite system to sound bad, sorry but for multiplatform games pc is a suicide and a no go, thats why people buy those games on consoles.

Pretty much everything you say is opinion based and not fact. And no, it's not a cop out to not argue with you, because honestly, what's the point? You think I'm wrong, I think you're wrong, and we will never see eye to eye on this subject. If you think that's a cop out, well then fine, I don't really care. I'm not even sure why I'm wasting time responding to you.

After you posted how HL2 was more satisfying on PS3, I did an epic facepalm and gave up all hope for this being a rational and reasonable discussion.

But now im hearing that devs are gunna start taking the route that modern warfare 2 took and just port console games to PC in order to save money.

-Unreal-

Can you show me your sources for this?

Abbi Heppi (I think thats how u spell her name) from G4tv.com was on AOTS i think yesterday or the day before and they brought up this issue becuz of the ruckus MW2 brought up. it worried me a bit cuz ive been doing all this research and getting ready to build my rig soon so i would of been upset if it was all a waste of time. but now its seems from all ur posts that PC gaming is gunna remain as is for a long time so im not worried anymore.

this arguement dosent seem to be going anywhere so ima ask u both to please stop. Dakan45 i own a ps3 dude so its not like im leaving console gaming forever, im just expanding my horizons is all. maybe some games work better on console like u say and if thats the case then ill prolly be buying those games for my PS3 but i hear alot of games work better on a PC as well, a more recent example being Dragon Age Origins which m looking forward to getting once my PC's built. so please stop trolling on PC gaming it cuz ur only upseting everyone

Yeah, I read that thread and since it's "you", I have to ask this...do you have constant stuttering or from 3 to 3 minutes or so? Remember, HL 2 has to save almost all the time, you pass a door, save (stutter), exit a building, save (stutter), etc.

Without actual game footage, I'll consider your problem just that, because it can't be anything else. The game runs perfectly fine even on an P4 2.4ghz, Geforce 4 Ti and 512 mb of RAM.

I highly doubt your problems are because of something that isn't supposed to happen, like saving every friggin minute, very annoying but I don't really like the HL series, so it could be as broken as Empire and I still wouldn't care.

The future of PC gaming is the same as it was back in the early 90s, late 90s, 2003, 2007... Really the PC gaming scene hasn't gone anywhere. There is maybe less crap produced for PC than there used to be since those type of games and the super casual non-gamer market is targeted more at consoles/handhelds.

If you told me early this year that someone was going to make a single player dungeon crawler game I would have told you to put down the wacky kool-aid and the developer is probably out of their mind. Yet we have torchlight.

Sure the PC misses out on some of the big name console titles sometimes but I swear every time I end up playing one of those games I think to myself what was the big deal with this game.

The best way I like to describe PC gaming is like a living environment, the users players community is much more involved in PC gaming. Console gaming is a controlled experience you are told what to do and allowed to only do specific things. This has been changing slowly with more indie content becoming available on consoles but still I don't see the community really get involved in a game like you see on the PC.

I wouldn't expect pc games to go away, even if consoles cost nothing and everyone has one in their home and always make more money there are still people that want to develop for the platform. Not everyone wants to make a game just to make money so people still make games because they enjoy doing so and as long as they can make enough money to work on their next project that is all they need.

I am trying to think of a console game that I have really put lots of time into. I don't play FPS on consoles so I can't think of any game recently where after completing the story I have spent any real time with it other than sports games. In comparison the amount of time I have spent playing Civ IV is who knows how many hundred of hours.

There have been so many ideas that started as mods for a game from the community that has been taken further by developers.

The biggest deterrent for PC gaming I would have to say is the cost and effort of the player. Not everything is going to work with out some time investment by the player trying to make it work. This isn't something new and I would say in the later years now it is much easier that the early days to get software working with a wider range of equipment.

[QUOTE="GazaAli"]this is BS. we have seen some great PC games this year including Batman AA, DA:O as i hear, SF4...etc. even if you want to get a console, dont get a 360, at least go for a PS3. basically, PC+PS3=ultimate combo.randino84

alredy have a ps3 thats why i was deciding between PC and 360. PC has a lot features that make it way better in my opinion i just wanna be sure those features are around for a long time that way im not wasting my money

man you already have a PS3, then get a PC man, like i said, even before knowing that you already have a PS3 and you are deciding between a 360 and a PC: PC+PS3=ultimate combo. i seriously dont know whats the point of Xbox360, its just boring in every way i look at it.

In HL2 Episode 2 my pc suffered a great amounting ot stuttering for no reason, i just got it for the ps3 latter and i enjoyed much more since the ps3 controller made the combat more satysfing...dakan45

HL2 more satisfying on a console... total loss of credibility there.

And moving on, yes your arguments are the same as every consolite's, except you're harping on this single "stuttering issue" for one game as the reason why console versions are superior. When you have to try to say that a controller with analog sticks is a better control scheme for an FPS than keyboard and mouse, you're reaching.

Naturally, there are going to be more technical issues overall on a PC version of a game. Why? Hardware variables. You release a console game on a PS3 or Xbox 360 in confidence that every PS3 or Xbox 360 will run the game off of the same processing hardware. With a PC, especially with custom builds, rarely are two PCs identical. The user himself/herself is going to be responsible for keeping their hardware and software current. It's true, you're not spoonfed on a PC.

I have the consoles and love them, and play on them often. But I'm not so elitist as to completely ignore the advantages of gaming on PC.

Pretty much what several people have said. PC is the only system where you can just get a good idea and say "Know what, think I am gonna make this into a video game/map/mod".

so ive been struggling with the choice of either building a gaming PC or just buying a 360 and i finally decided that i wud build the PC because of how it has more features and whatnot. But now im hearing that devs are gunna start taking the route that modern warfare 2 took and just port console games to PC in order to save money. Do u all think theirs some truth to this or do u think PC gaming will remain superior to console gaming for quite some time? please tell me cuz i wud hate to think id be wasting my time building a PC if in 2 or 3 years PC and console gaming will be the same. :?

randino84

They will never be the same.

Don't you know that consoles are made with modified old PC parts? The PS3's graphics chip is a GeForce 7800 GTX - that was in PCs 5 years ago. The 360 has an old ATI.

Dragon Age was just released: The differences between the platforms couldn't be more pronounced - see Kevin Van Ord's great review. The PC Version has the highest rating.

Think about this: to get Dragon Age to a point where it would even execute on consoles, Bioware had to drastically rewrite all of the graphics: there's a lot of difference between 5-year-old technology and the latest that nVidia and ATI are manufacturing for the PC. Not to mention the difference with the CPUs. There is a very large difference between the core programming of Dragon Age for the PC and the consoles. Not at all similar.

That sure is amusing...

LOL, have you played fps on consoles? The ai does not move and the crosshair does not lose accuracy at all, just like hl2.

There are hard pc fps with the ai moving and accuracy loss and leaning as a neccessary technique to survive.

What i said is not that fps are better on ps3....but ps3 has killzone 2 and resistance series anwyay...

What i said is that hl2 is such an easy game in fps gameplay that i enjoyed playing it more on a console for the extra challenge.

Seriously, no lean, no accuracy loss and the ai stands still all the time. Is this what you call a pc fps? Because if you ask me its totally like a console game, only the health does not regenarate, but apart from that hl2 feels more consolish and simplistic than the so hated cod4 that people are calling consolish.

There you go, thats a biased statement from the pc gamers.... hl2? a great pc game? Its a consolish game with dated graphics and technology.

Valve has yet to advance in technology in their games..

After you posted how HL2 was more satisfying on PS3, I did an epic facepalm and gave up all hope for this being a rational and reasonable discussion.

Then why do you reply when you dont know anything? Yes hl2 was more satisfying on ps3,. you wanna know why? Because its exactly like resistance, no lean, no accuracy loss, the ai stands still all the time (actually in resistance they do fight back a bit)...its like a consolish game, so easy and simple. Therefore i had more fun playing it on ps3, i did not said fps are better on ps3, i said hl2 was more challenging. Seriously how hl2 is better on pc regarding the fps gameplay? Its so easy, and you dont need to be that accurate either. If you think hl2 is a solid fps then perhaps you are pretty bad at fps in general, let alone that i bet you suck at fps on consoles like all pc gamers and thats why you think its sooo bad to play fps on a console. That was rational enough i think, atleast more rational than saying hl2 is more fun on pc. :lol:

:( How you want me to support my claims anymore? Even in gears of war that you got in your sig, people complained about bad optimazation and bugs, i did not experiance those issues but that does not change the fact that many people did. If thats not enough for you then thats ok, but am not gonna go to every forum and point out people complaining about weird issues on console games ported to pc. How the hell my arguments are baseless? The base is alll those people out there complaining, i did point out some games, if thats not enough then am sorry but people who have not experianced any problems with the few multiplatforms they buy.....cant tell people like me that i am wrong because simply they dont buy as many multiplatforms as i buy and thats why they have not experianed any issues. Anyway i never again gonna buy multiplatform games for the pc in order to avoid in weird issues.

Well, i don't know about the future, but i know that i have so many damn good pc games, which i haven't finished, lined up that i actually sometimes find myself sitting in front of my bookcase just staring at the dvd covers and cant decide what game to play :) If that isn't a nice problem to have i don't know what is. I think the pc gaming future is as bright as it always has been, of course some titles won`t be made for the pc, but so what when we get tons of good games anyways?

So chin up lads

I am suprised too since you did insult me last time. I dont troll forums, i just use open minded logic to the fanatic pc gamers who think their pcs are gods and perfect. Simply pointing out that they are not, because unlike them i do play casual games (multiplatforms) On both pc and consoles, and reccomend not to play on pc due to the bad quality of porting from the consoles. Is that trolling? That i point out the obvious that the whole world knows? That playing mainstream games on the pc nowadays is simply not worth it because game developers focus on consoles and treat the pc gamers version like second class customers with tons of porting issues and bad optimazation.

This is a problem I've been struggling with for a while now. I love pc games, but they are slowly getting crappier by the second. Prime example being COD MWF 2. To me, I see it as a preview of the future for us. I bought the game, and regardless of the fact I have a great PC that plays it maxed at 60 FPS, it still has bugs that seem to crash at the worst of times. I'm still trying to find out why the single player mission im on wont even load. I also bought Dragon Age recently, despite the fact it works much better than COD, I still almost get the feeling I would've enjoyed it more on my Xbox. COD is the final blow to me, and I will no longer buy PC games, and am going to rebuy it for 360. I hate the controller, I hate paying for online, I hate the graphics, but at least it works.

As i said pc is getting more consolish in every release. Look at WM2 even they took out the lean and dedicated servers, can you imagine what the rest do? No? let me tell you what they do, they quickly port the games the working on from consoles to pc without optimizing them and with many visible porting things like x360 buttons appearing on the screen or weird issues and problems plus broken mouse aiming. So for what is worth it, if you buy mutltiplatform games on pc you usually have to upgrade your pc due to bad optimazation and suffer broken control and buggy issues, so you would be better off with a console. Thats all i said. But everyone here is a fanatic pc gamer that thinkg the pc is perfect.

[QUOTE="dakan45"] No? Ofcourse you dont, you dont buy multiplatform games like i do, and trust me i buy alot of them, if you did then you would see how many of those games are full of problems on pc and how unoptimized they are, also the fact that there are no patches to fix the issues. As for the rest, its just a cheap excuse to say that you cant really debate with me and just back away thinking i am a troll. Thats where you are wrong too. I love pc gaming but i play casual games, all those games have those problems and the pc versions are a cheap joke. At the end having a pc for those games is a nightmare and you d be better of with a console. Thats what i said to pc to begin with, The tc did not ask if it worths to have a pc for pc games like eg: torchlight, he asked if its worth to have a pc to play multiplatforms in order to save money, but with the requirements and problems multiplatform games have on pc , let alone the price tag which is leanning towards being the same as the consoles.....well you are better of with a console. Thats what i said, not that i hate pc or anything, but ofcourse you got to hate me for making your favorite system to sound bad, sorry but for multiplatform games pc is a suicide and a no go, thats why people buy those games on consoles.dakan45

Pretty much everything you say is opinion based and not fact. And no, it's not a cop out to not argue with you, because honestly, what's the point? You think I'm wrong, I think you're wrong, and we will never see eye to eye on this subject. If you think that's a cop out, well then fine, I don't really care. I'm not even sure why I'm wasting time responding to you.

After you posted how HL2 was more satisfying on PS3, I did an epic facepalm and gave up all hope for this being a rational and reasonable discussion.

Then why do you reply when you dont know anything? Yes hl2 was more satisfying on ps3,. you wanna know why? Because its exactly like resistance, no lean, no accuracy loss, the ai stands still all the time (actually in resistance they do fight back a bit)...its like a consolish game, so easy and simple. Therefore i had more fun playing it on ps3, i did not said fps are better on ps3, i said hl2 was more challenging. Seriously how hl2 is better on pc regarding the fps gameplay? Its so easy, and you dont need to be that accurate either. If you think hl2 is a solid fps then perhaps you are pretty bad at fps in general, let alone that i bet you suck at fps on consoles like all pc gamers and thats why you think its sooo bad to play fps on a console. That was rational enough i think, atleast more rational than saying hl2 is more fun on pc. :lol:

And now you devolved into personal insults. Yes, I think all Valve games are better on PC, so OBVIOUSLY I suck at FPS. Seriously man, what is your problem? I can use the same argument, you apparently suck at FPS on PC if you think it's better on console, because you get owned by people using mouse and keyboard. See how that works?

You know why HL2 is better on PC? I'll give you one reason, MODS. So, how are you enjoying those Source mods on your PS3? Oh, that's right, you aren't.

True the PC isn't perfect. In fact most PC Gamers play games that have already been out for a while such as Crysis, STALKER, FEAR, HALF-LIFE2 etc. Modern Warfare 2 is only from one developer that chose to make stupid decisions of port the console game to the PC. However, there is much to look forward to next year such as STALKER Pripyat, Bioshock 2, Singularity, and Rage from Id Software. If we join together and show game developers that we aren't screwing around then there will be a golden age of PC Gaming again. What the PC Gaming industry doesn't need is all the pessimistic PC Gamers that are making their way to the consoles. We need to convert console gamers to PC Gaming and trust me the PC has enough Kick *** games for us to do that. So will you join forces with me and the rest of the PC forum and shall we flood the game developers with complaints and we should also praise the developers who are making an excellent effort to keep PC Gaming strong. :D :) :) ;)

You know why HL2 is better on PC? I'll give you one reason, MODS. So, how are you enjoying those Source mods on your PS3? Oh, that's right, you aren't.zomglolcats

LOL, i enjoyed it more because it was more challenging on ps3 and i wanted to play the compaign, i made no mention of usage of mods. Besides if i wanted mods i would plat fallout 3 on the pc or hl2, which i find impossible with all that stuttering.

HL2 is like a console fps, and i mean totally id rather play it on a console till valve decides to improve the game's complexity and technology to much the pc capabilities

You're not open-minded, you're as close-minded as they get. You try to pass off your opinion as facts and anybody who disagrees is completely wrong with no valid point and sucks at gaming.zomglolcats

Really? I am open minded as it gets because unlike you i dont troll the consoles and facepalm whoever has some valid reasons to prefer them over pc Its YOU who is close minded as it gets by saying the pc is perfect and superior with no logic.

You say hl2 is so good, yet i have pointed out reasons that by the "pc gamer" logic is not that good. and still you seem to ignore anything. Sorry but i am not gonna listen to fanatic hermits that are close minded to the tem PC= best platfrom ever. Because thats untrue nowadays.

Pc used to be great but all the developers ditch the pc nowadays and make cheap ports, therefore gaming is better on consoles and not on pc as far as you play multiplatforms like the Tc wanted. Pc is just full of problems and requirements for extreme hardware nowadays. You just dont wanna accept it. But i do accept it and i am a pc gamer!!

I bet this is the moment you start saying i am not a pc gamer, but i am a pc gamer, i am not a pc fanboy or completly fanatic to pc believing that is god himself and no one can boubt him.

However i have enough problems with the bad ports on the pc and from now on i will NEVER buy a game for the pc again. Not until the gamedevelopers stat treaing us equally as the console gamers.

But judging by the fact that even IW abandonded the pc gamers, i dont see that happening any time soon.

:roll: That patch came out suposelly to fix the issue and still the issue remains unfixed.... lol, i nean lol, you dont know anything and you try to prove me wrong...for crying out loud.

As for ports, well what i said is that console games ported to pc and called "pc version" have ton of weird issues. That will be all.

EDIT: there is even a user at that article link you gave me complaining that he still has the issue :lol:...let alone what a big fail that patch was!!

dakan45

Ah, well I suppose I was wrong about the "stuttering issue." That sucks. Oh well, good luck with it. There is no need to try to insult me like a child.

But, as for your "argument" about PC ports, you have yet to support your claim, you are simply making baseless accusations.

:( How you want me to support my claims anymore? Even in gears of war that you got in your sig, people complained about bad optimazation and bugs, i did not experiance those issues but that does not change the fact that many people did. If thats not enough for you then thats ok, but am not gonna go to every forum and point out people complaining about weird issues on console games ported to pc. How the hell my arguments are baseless? The base is alll those people out there complaining, i did point out some games, if thats not enough then am sorry but people who have not experianced any problems with the few multiplatforms they buy.....cant tell people like me that i am wrong because simply they dont buy as many multiplatforms as i buy and thats why they have not experianed any issues. Anyway i never again gonna buy multiplatform games for the pc in order to avoid in weird issues.

I can make examples of crappy console ports such as Supreme Commander and Quake 4, they both have bad ports, it doesn't mean the PC is particularly worse than consoles in this aspect.

There are so many PC Games out there that I'm sure you haven't experienced all the Great ones yet. Doom 3, Half-Life 2, Crysis, Far Cry 2, STALKER, FEAR, QUAKE 4, Painkiller, Call of Duty 4, Unreal Tournament 3, Bioshock, and the list goes on. Just because there aren't any great new games for the PC at this very moment doesn't mean that the PC doesn't have some incredibly fun and awesome games. ;)

OK..... lets go one more time, what i am saying is that game developers port their games from console to pcs and call them pc versions. "Those" multiplatform games are usually full of problems. So if you buy a multiplatform, you better buy it for a console isntead and save yourself the trouble. That was my point

Most multi platform games are better on PC. Considering you can't even run HL2 properly, I guess most games probably give you fits.

Most of those games are old, apart from crysis. I bet you meant far cry instead of far cry 2. Thats nice but lets look on how consolized far cry 2 and fear 2 are. Or unreal tournament 3!! Thats how multiplats are nowadays its a pain in the neck. Stalker and hl2 are just the same game being made again and again. I would like to see something superior like hl3 or stalker 2 instead.

LOL Thats untrue, Most multiplatforms on pc are far worse with many control issues, problems and bad optimazation. As for hl2, i just happen to have that problem with episode 2. Its not my fault that from 2004 till now the problem is still there (Not for me but many users have the problem) Also its not my fault that valve STILL has not managed to fix the problem after all those years. There ar many games with problems on pc like silent hill homecoming, resident evil 5, rise of the argonauts, ghostbusters etc,etc. The problem is that those games have issues that people have encountered, but companies dont really support them. So if you have the problem its most likelly that you wont be able to fix it via patch since they developers dont care about releasing a patch for pc. Valve was an example to point out that even as pc developers they still have not managed to fix that issue after all those years. Whatever the case the best course of action is to buy the multiplatform game on a console instead and save yourself the trouble and upgrading needed due to bad optimazation.

Actually Half-Life 2 Episode 3 is a PC exclusive so that's excellent news :D. Also, I think PC games are allowed to have sequels (some are better than others). However, hopefully you are comparing all of these games on the PC and not to the console version. However, I do dread the fact that Crysis 2 is being made for the consoles. However, hopefully the PC version will be just as awesome as the first one (we shall see when the game is released though). Perhaps you are just looking for a Challenging PC game ;)

You kidding me? That part in the beginning was quite action focused, unlike the rest, and killing the metrocops was very easy, no need to be accurate just unload on them. I dont see how that required to be accurate. Compared to stalker or crysis. Only cod4 was easier due to auto weapons being available. So what is going on here? I am the only one who thinks hl2 is even easier to aim than cod4? I thought pc gamers dont like so easy to aim games.

Well they ported to consoles at some point. Right now i got no stuttering issues, But i bet that till the day that they will FINALLY release episode3... i wont start experiancing stuttering issues again. Thats because i am not gonna format just for episode 3 and source engine when every other game engine works. Man vavlve got to ditch the source engine. Anyway i did not have autoaim on, because i remembered how unhelpfull it was in half life. So i always turn it off when i paly games.

That part in the beginning was quite action focused, unlike the rest, and killing the metrocops was very easy, no need to be accurate just unload on them. I dont see how that required to be accurate. Compared to stalker or crysis. Only cod4 was easier due to auto weapons being available. So what is going on here? I am the only one who thinks hl2 is even easier to aim than cod4? I thought pc gamers dont like so easy to aim games.

I personally just like see the aftermath of my carnage! ;) (blood and violence). You can mod hl2 to make it more difficult I believe :)

SMOD. thats more like it. HL2 is full of puzzles instead of action. But epsiode 2 was awesome.

It's good to know that you agree with a girl's opinion ;)

[QUOTE="dakan45"][QUOTE="randino84"]

people are misinterpretting the thread i was never asking if PC gaming is dying i was just asking if within like a few years if PC gaming will be basically the same as console gaming

UltimateGamer95

As i said pc is getting more consolish in every release. Look at WM2 even they took out the lean and dedicated servers, can you imagine what the rest do? No? let me tell you what they do, they quickly port the games the working on from consoles to pc without optimizing them and with many visible porting things like x360 buttons appearing on the screen or weird issues and problems plus broken mouse aiming. So for what is worth it, if you buy mutltiplatform games on pc you usually have to upgrade your pc due to bad optimazation and suffer broken control and buggy issues, so you would be better off with a console. Thats all i said. But everyone here is a fanatic pc gamer that thinkg the pc is perfect.

True the PC isn't perfect. In fact most PC Gamers play games that have already been out for a while such as Crysis, STALKER, FEAR, HALF-LIFE2 etc. Modern Warfare 2 is only from one developer that chose to make stupid decisions of port the console game to the PC. However, there is much to look forward to next year such as STALKER Pripyat, Bioshock 2, Singularity, and Rage from Id Software. If we join together and show game developers that we aren't screwing around then there will be a golden age of PC Gaming again. What the PC Gaming industry doesn't need is all the pessimistic PC Gamers that are making their way to the consoles. We need to convert console gamers to PC Gaming and trust me the PC has enough Kick *** games for us to do that. So will you join forces with me and the rest of the PC forum and shall we flood the game developers with complaints and we should also praise the developers who are making an excellent effort to keep PC Gaming strong. :D :) :) ;)

lolz sounds awsome man count me in. lets flood them devs with complaints

Sadly i bet we will be ignored. But i live for the day that gamedevelopers will open their minds and start focusing on pc....just think about it, dx11 on a game with reasonable requirements. Imagine a game like gta iv to run in dx11 with amazing graphics but reasonable requiremts. I live to see that kinda graphics with so big maps and reasonable requirements.

[QUOTE="zomglolcats"]You know why HL2 is better on PC? I'll give you one reason, MODS. So, how are you enjoying those Source mods on your PS3? Oh, that's right, you aren't.dakan45

LOL, i enjoyed it more because it was more challenging on ps3 and i wanted to play the compaign, i made no mention of usage of mods. Besides if i wanted mods i would plat fallout 3 on the pc or hl2, which i find impossible with all that stuttering.

HL2 is like a console fps, and i mean totally id rather play it on a console till valve decides to improve the game's complexity and technology to much the pc capabilities

You're not open-minded, you're as close-minded as they get. You try to pass off your opinion as facts and anybody who disagrees is completely wrong with no valid point and sucks at gaming.zomglolcats

Really? I am open minded as it gets because unlike you i dont troll the consoles and facepalm whoever has some valid reasons to prefer them over pc Its YOU who is close minded as it gets by saying the pc is perfect and superior with no logic.

You say hl2 is so good, yet i have pointed out reasons that by the "pc gamer" logic is not that good. and still you seem to ignore anything. Sorry but i am not gonna listen to fanatic hermits that are close minded to the tem PC= best platfrom ever. Because thats untrue nowadays.

Pc used to be great but all the developers ditch the pc nowadays and make cheap ports, therefore gaming is better on consoles and not on pc as far as you play multiplatforms like the Tc wanted. Pc is just full of problems and requirements for extreme hardware nowadays. You just dont wanna accept it. But i do accept it and i am a pc gamer!!

I bet this is the moment you start saying i am not a pc gamer, but i am a pc gamer, i am not a pc fanboy or completly fanatic to pc believing that is god himself and no one can boubt him.

However i have enough problems with the bad ports on the pc and from now on i will NEVER buy a game for the pc again. Not until the gamedevelopers stat treaing us equally as the console gamers.

But judging by the fact that even IW abandonded the pc gamers, i dont see that happening any time soon.

See, dakan45, this is where you're wrong. You're accusing ME of trolling the consoles? Seriously? I could have sworn this is the PC Games forum. If you think consoles are a better value and experience that is fine, but that's not what you're doing here. You're turning this entire thread into system wars garbage. You do realize they have System Wars forum for a reason? What you're doing would be like me going to a forum about model trains, and then start saying "You know, model trains are a complete waste of time and money." Do you really think the regulars of that forum are just going to sit back and not get their feathers ruffled? This forum is to discuss PC Gaming, not slam it. If you want to continue doing that, then you need to post in System Wars. I'm certainly not going around posting on the PS3 forums saying PS3 sucks (I actually own a PS3 and I think it's great. Some games belong on consoles, and some belong on PC however).

na I could woop your *** if I wanted to, but you just seem frustrated logically ;). Anyway I am more interested in forcing the Game Developers to make some awesome PC games for us! Don't worry we WILL make Game Developers focus on the PC :) :D

[QUOTE="SemperFi10"]I can make examples of crappy console ports such as Supreme Commander and Quake 4, they both have bad ports, it doesn't mean the PC is particularly worse than consoles in this aspect.dakan45
OK..... lets go one more time, what i am saying is that game developers port their games from console to pcs and call them pc versions. "Those" multiplatform games are usually full of problems. So if you buy a multiplatform, you better buy it for a console isntead and save yourself the trouble. That was my point

We'll just have to disagree I suppose.
