    Really need more shovel knight. Loved that game. And last game i brought was bloodborne "I am behind, so what... wanna fight about it?" and god i am loving every bloodygut moment.
  5. Xenoblade chronicles 2 please...... *waits patiently.*
  6. ............. y u make me cry ='(
  7. Well playing in PTR, shes hardly a tank now. give it a go, ul see what i mean. Shes to squishy to be a viable tank or skirmisher. Saddens me alot ='(
  8. Its in PTR at the moment. Basicly, shes squishy, and does less damage when she does no dmg at mid/long range. So i cant go into combat, as reaper/phara/tracer/mai/roadhog/76/ and alot others can take her out very fast. but i have to due to range of weapon spread and dmg reduction........ shes not a tank or skirmisher now. Hell a buffed reaper 2 hits me...... no joke.
  9. Its not a shabby map that, good high points and open areas to get to the pin points. What i am unhappy about............D.VA nerf =(
  10. Been playing for a few days, not to shabby. Nut the limits on what you can learn in the skill trees, and what equipment you can buy/pickup is annoying. Going to see how far i can get before i tear my hair out
  11. Aye i need to get this done. Have to nab you guys when i get the chance. From what i know, Vs AI Easy bots takes about 6-10mins. Do that a few times a day and its over and done with =)
  12. You won the net today =P And aye i love to see that formation burnt down. Why i enjoyed ana in meta since she can shut down most Ults or tank rampages with ease, but she was just to slow. Sombra with the speed, teleporting and shut downs, she be a good combo with hard hitters. ......... hmmm reinheart+sombrea+mai+dva ult combo *droollllllll*
  13. I laughed and snorted. All jokes aside, she looks like fun! no doult will fit in META well with her ult.
  14. Going to wait on this one. Getting a tad fed up with Early Access to find out its not being worked on any more, or they just gave up and do an half assed job. Do love the idea and setting, hope it gets finished soon =)
  15. i wanted a dva halloween outfit but i got most of the stuff just not all! And aye i wanted it bad, but i am with you on those points!
  16. Arg trying to get free time to settle down and play Overwatch lately is becoming a hassle =( missed out on loot box goodies over halloween!
  17. Now this looks fun. No need for gore, or for super scary faces. Scary done right. Would be amusing with VR =P
  18. Once i get home, il be adding you =) xellpnz#1699 if you beat me to it guys.
  19. Just need to get Roadhogs halloween skin and i basicly have all the halloween event stuff! Now my aim is to get to top teir in the next season..... if work allows it, and wow.......and the other half! Should add you guys if your playing, would be amusing =)
  20. Intel/AMD both got VERY nice chips coming this year if you can wait, will be a huge step up from what we have. Well depends on what ram you are looking at, as same make ram for 8gb sometimes only £10/20 More each depending. Issue is going with a said big company like Dell/HP/Lenovo they tend to use OEM model parts or budget parts which is great, but tend to pay more for. Just be careful what your buying compared to somewhere else.
  21. Well, it falls into play when 1:do you upgrade with the times 2:or keep with the old? if you ran win-10 on a 1ghz celeron, and 2gb slow 600mhz ram, your going to really have a bad time. For starters, login in be half the damn lesson! I would not say a i5 is pricey at all, going with 5th and above gen sure, but that be rather silly unless you are going into gaming or alike. For a casual user 2gen if you can get one or 4th be fine, and price margin should not be to high compared. Photoshop is a CPU/RAM intensive program, mostly coded for muti-render/frames. So you would need muticore to have less of a drag on the system, plus 4 physicals are going to handle that better than 2logical/2physical. If you do some work on photoshop, over time the layers and effects do mount up. I Remember back when dual core 2 was out, i maxed my 6gb 800hz and dual core extreme to the near max on Photoshop 6, took AGES to load my work up. *did alot website making stuff. Fun hobbies =)* Then comes down to pixal count on the screens etc etc etc..... could go on. Agreed, 6th gen stuff is ridiculous on pricing on K series, due noted its more aimed at gamers. IF you had to go with a 6th gen, then comes down to end user ultimately due to price difference between a 6100 vs a 6500 (100 vs 145) But again since most programs going muticored, might be worth the investment, but again my view on that, but for next few years, would hardly notice much of a difference. And i own two 2500ks! love them so much, that im getting another one as a linux server. Ones on a 50quid board, running at 4.2ghz over its 3.32ghz clock. overclocking is not as bad as it used to be, Companies expect it when going for series of chips that an gamer aims for. (6 being one of them) So you can push your systems and they will last just as long. Admitted, tried doing that on a dual core duo........ *cries* bad memory's. But i overclock most of my gear, and i have around 7 Gaming desktops at home, and 2 servers with near top spec. no deaths yet! One of them is my old boy running with a Core 2 Extreme QX9770, 3.8ghz to 4.5ghz. And hes old!!! and i think his board was around 70ish pounds at the time. and yes i have a life..... please believe me! OH no i do agree that budgets are a pain, but i think if you can squeeze those extra pounds, and weights into a investment, might help out in a few years than now. Always see PC's as a cash investment, how much can i pay now, to get back. if i can make it work effectively, over 5 years than 4, that extra year might of saved me £50 per, or more for CPU alone. But i do understand the frustration, just so many variables now days, let alone keeping upto date with whats best to use, and how to use them in so many situations! And i blame most of the government for why things suck..... tax dodging *bleeps*
  22. Admitted, general use "now" will be very slim on the difference. But with programs ever so changing, and with OS's becoming more of a hungry horse, feels safe being more future proof with the extra power behind the steering wheel. For office related software, single core duty's is fine. But what about Photoshop and alike, that are ram and multi-threaded developed to keep them lag and effective? Its having that mix is what i like personally and keeps me feeling safe i can hold my head above the water for longer. I still feel a i3 is a small investment (2/3yr) if pushed compared to a (4/5) over a i5 for a little more on price. *even more so with k series and 8gb fast ram* And my overclocked i52500k has been stable for the past 5ish years. Processors now days are perfectly fine with a small jump, as long as they are a K series. But i presume if you only have a small amount of students ever doing high usages, and the curriculum does not change that much over next say 5 years should be golden. And aye SSD's help so much! need some m2 ssd love! I guess its down to preference of how we feel safe with our components. I always plan for the longer road and make sure i got more spare tires than i need *just* in case, as for the extra price, does not hurt at all.
  23. For some schools its helpful to go with i5 or i7s if possible. For example we are unable to provide a upgrade to everything for many years, hell most the school i work at are all on Dual core duos! Plus going for cheap i5 2500ks, and overclocking them will make sure they are worth while for a good term. its all about that ratio, if you can afford every so many years, go with something lower, i3 and upgrade every so often. If you can only do it so many more x2 then go with something more powerhouse and make it last that length of time. Its all about planning and making most of that investment in your tools and getting the most out of them.
  24. But the question is, if i download a film in Barbados...... am i a pirate of the Caribbean?
