Mind you there a lot of people that will try to cheat in the game. With 2k hours played I have marked a few aimbots. I was just pointing out that just because you can hit someone who is actively trying evade you does not mean the person is a aim bot. Skill and luck does come into play.
Check out ice spike cam vol 5 on youtube.
He explains it towards the end of the video.
i wouldnt say its sad.
aimbots is one thing
lowering visuals to gain FPS is another
going through a 3rd party program to further remove visuals far beyond what the game devs intended to gain additional benefits is another thing entirely.
if this mode was available through the game then this is a non issue but thats not what they did is it.
True. Although this game should have been fixed a long time ago, I do feel the frustration from other people tbh. Coming back there still other issues that make me roll my eyes.
if it could it would of been done.
its clear there is a tangled spiderweb of sadness behind newworld and i have no idea if its truly fixable with the amount of people that work at AGS
though if im reading the rumors correctly, hopefully we will get some new management that can properly deal with this crap.
I’m hoping too that the new management will make things better. I do still have hope for this game. Also the update coming up looks promising, and love that our chest will be doubled. And don’t forget the new T4housing lol.
literally the top thing i care about right now.
iv been waiting to upgrade.
Apparently, if you follow the guide someone posted over here - you do not just remove visuals you also make it harder for you to see “spells” which can be considered a “disadvantage”
So a real question: have you tested the settings yourself and can you even see a Gravwell? Because from what I can see (some effects are so subtle that you might just end up dying because you turned the settings down for extra fps = seems like a tradeoff than an advantage)
But then again if you see fit that players are penalized for adjusting their graphics settings through a third-party program that’s literally associated and is officially with the Graphics Card being used (hardware) then it is no different from penalizing players for having high-end PCs.
i aint risking a ban on my account man.
and i have no desire to gain whatever advantage for this low stakes game.
Yes but this is not against ToS lmao, this is no different than adjusting your graphics settings via nvidia control panel??? Nvidia inspector is literally the same as the nvidia control panel but with more detailed settings that can be adjusted and cannot be seen as against any Game’s ToS because it is NOT the game files being modified it is your Graphic’s settings.
you are absolutely sure that this isn’t against the TOS or do you believe its not against tos because its not providing enough of an advantage.
and while its not modifying anything it is blocking the normal functions and changing how things render using what is a 3rd party program.
mind you that’s the risk im still not willing to take. not without a direct confirmation from AGS that it wont be retaliated against.
even then i have no desire to deep fry my graphics.
How about you find an existing game that bans its players for changing its “graphics” settings?
Mind you it doesn’t matter if it gives an advantage or disadvantage - the main thing that most games have against what’s bannable or not in these circumstances is whether it “modifies game files” and you are 100% NOT modifying any game file by doing any of this. You are in your absolute free will, to adjust your graphics settings to however you want
I don’t care if some forum crying turd thinks it gives an advantage, I OWN my graphics card not them, they don’t get to tell me if I can play my settings on Ultra or on Low
so its a matter of tradition rather than what is and isnt against ToS ok.
il just wait for @Luxendra to get an actual hardline word before choosing not to change additional settings.
might as well.
don’t want to tempt people into doing it only to get a week long ban or not.
that’s the point of getting official word.
just like that overwolf stance.
NP. Dont listen to the people simping, either.
You arent doing anything wrong by using it.
People have always found ways to make games run smoother as we all cant be Jeff Bezos love chilld with 3090s lining the floor next to our PC.
the code of conduct is so opened ended it can pretty much apply to anything.
If you find the game so disgusting, why are you still here? You want everyone to quit the game? Will this satisfy you?
lmao truth
