I understand the OP's point and agree with it mostly. I'm also sick of people saying "FarCry 2 will suck because Crysis sucked because my PC didn't run it properly". People like that shouldn't even post. And, sure enough, that's what I do. When I haven't played a new game yet, I'm not going to post it will suck. Hell, I don't even *like* discussions like this about things as FUN as games! Razz

Yes, these people are what I call trolls, I suppose they aren't trying to be trolls so I use the definition loosely, but there's a button for them, it's called ignore Smile

Yes you do one every thread you can find you say "go play your old games then" wtf go play your new games then. If somebody likes an old game and dislikes a new one he is a stuck-in-the-past-dinosaur, now that's real mature Laughing I like a lot of "new" games too, they are all games to me I don't make that distinction between old and new like you do for some reason.

So why we bashing each other? Razz Clearly I'm not talking about you then.

I LOVE OLD GAMES TOO, but not just them.
If you don't understand times have changes, and so have games, that makes you a dinosaur.

Okay I see your point, not sure who are you talking about thou, most people on this board seem to like the new stuff don't see any dinosaurs at all.

I also can't stand how people think a game sucks when they just didn't like it.. doesn't make it a bad game.

But there's nothing you can do about it. It's best to just ignore those people and move on.


old but still oh so true...






btw, I believe that Crysis would have been significantly more successful if the developers had simply removed Ultra-High.

If the option is there, people want to use it, and if it doesn't run well, the game sucks.

It's like that Tomb Raider game where they included that special next-gen mode that add some really nice effects to the game. It clearly stated that it was meant for hardware that isn't even out yet.. but still, people tried to use it and complained that it ran like shit.

It's just stupid...

With my 4870X2 I can play Crysis in Ultra High settings in 1920x1200. Game still suck uber shit.

And about TR, Laughing. Hardware isn't out yet? Those settings were the 360 settings. Clearly it was just not optimized. But in that game, a clear opposite of Crysis, one had the motivation to play it because it was good, not because it had good graphics.

Reminds me of a story I heard from a game developer, they put this super-high setting in the game and stated on numerous occasions that it shouldn't be used unless you have some super machine it was more experimental and it had some new stuff and they where proud of it of course. Then the bashing came in on the forums that this game is unoptimized peace of shit, that it doesn't run properly on any machine of course the problem was that everyone was playing on super-high setting so they said it again "don't play on super high lower it to high and enjoy the game". Alas the bashing did not stop it only got worse so they released a patch that REMOVES the super-high setting from the options menu, that's all the patch did, and than the bashing turned into praising of the highest degree Laughing stuff like "this is the best patch ever!!", "I don't know what you did but now the game runs smooth", "best optimization in a single patch ever!"

He said he left the game industry still shaking his head on how stupid the game players are Laughing a lot of kids are gamers so you can't expect too much I guess.

Not sure what kind of warning sign would be enough, probably a red flicker over the whole screen with an air raid siren in the background and letters across the whole monitor:

YOU'VE CHANGED THE SETTING TO SUPER HIGH
YOU'RE GAME WILL RUN LIKE CRAP
DON'T COME TO US TO COMPLAIN
WE RECOMMEND A LOWER SETTING
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!

maybe that would do it Very Happy, but then others would complain that the options menu gives them a headache and wakes up their parents.

That's my whole point with this thread, dude. People WANT to complain!! They will find anything, absolutely anything, about any game -- to complain about!

I guess so, but sometimes the complaints are legit, it's hard to distinguish because even complaints are subjective and you can't please everybody so someone will always be bitchin', I think that's normal.
