You play it with an Xbox controller or something?

Buy on AliExpress.com

pretty sure you can get unofficial drivers for that, but don't know how well it works

Xbox 360 controller doesnt work on pc.

But microsoft has "xbox 360 for windows" controllers made specially for pc. I got one of those.

They will make an xbox one for windows controller, but its nort yet on the market

 

[ZoSo]

I have a 360 PC controller too, but just a cheap $20 one instead of an official $50 one. Quality is great, almost identical to the actual 360 controller.

Reached Level 24 at Destiny and playing for more Light equipment right now and the exotic bounty that should get me a nifty shotgun. And I need to get to Level 26 to get to play the awesome raid.

Insurgency is such a great game.

I'm still at level 20 but should reach 26 by the weekend, hopefully. You'll need 5 other players in your team to play the raid. Count me in

Yeah, i'm gonna check that out further and the copycats Zoso mentionned who cost less then half for simular performance.


Saving up atm. Got a quastion here

Currently in "new" pc : i790 ULtra SLI and QX9650 cpu (overclocked to 4ghz)

Saw a deal on 400 euro for : MSI Z97 and i7 4770 cpu.

both motherboard got three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots

Is the deal good enough to spend it now ? i was thinking to wait a year before swapping motherboard and cpu out

Well, i've played the beta with @King of Kings and the full game with @Vinny del Pirlo, don't know who else here has it.

Correction, @Salvo seems to have it. And so does @Twenty---3

 

[Twenty---3]

I'm getting my 3 month subscription this Friday for PSN. Right now I'm on level 10 not even close to you guys yet. My ID is Juventus2688. I think I need a new PSN ID name .

 

[Salvo]

I like it, I like the MMO elements to it. But it is still a shooter. My PSN is SensualSuaveSal

- - - Updated - - -

I havent had much time to play it. Plan on playing it all day today though.

The lighting is quite beautiful.

I got the controller off eBay btw.

Do you really need an i7? As far as I'm aware the difference in games is negligible or non existent. Most games don't take advantage of 4 cores let alone 6. A high end overclocked i5 will last for a very long time.

Yeah you dont need it. But its a package deal with the motherboard and ram. I would have otherwise went for an i5

 

[ZoSo]

I don't know prices over there but here I got:

i5 4590 ~$225
AsRock H97M-Pro4 ~$115

400e is a lot

Crossfire capable too, though I think SLI boards are more expensive.

 

[Zacheryah]

Not much use for crossfire when having these two gigabyte 770GTX here.

And SLI boards require 16x pcie3.0 per card. That board has just one. Wich is fine, for a single card setup

- - - Updated - - -

But the next time i'm making a pc, its going to be amd, cause its just so much cheaper for same performance

 

[ZoSo]

Yeah I know, why I said SLI is more expensive. Just saying you might not need to spend that much if you don't want to.
