Imagine imagining digital sales and giving the queen an imaginary spot on an imaginary NPD list :ROFLMAO:

Kinda like this same individual imagining that BotW sold 8 million on Wii U (yikes) :ROFLMAO:

Queen got 99 problems, imagination ain't one :ROFLMAO:

Lo jee, CerebralTiger ka "proper" frame rate analysis bhi aagaya :ROFLMAO:



Call of Duty Vanguard currently has some performance issues. On the Xbox Series consoles the frame rate can briefly drop below 20fps when passing certain points on the map. On PS5 there can occasionally be very large frame time spikes that can occur.

There is also a bug where starting the game in the 120fps mode causes noticeably degraded performance in this mode
(Edit: The footage starting at 13:25 shows this degraded performance). This bug can be fixed by turning the 120fps mode off and then back on again while in-game.

Just goes to show how irrelevant the "99% of the time" stat is :ROFLMAO:

Nah, 99% means 99% (actually 99.98% on PS5 here) 🤣

The issue wasn't seen happening in the 120fps mode (that's how I played it). From the side-by-side comparison, PS5 is the most stable version in this mode as well 🤷‍♂️

That 120Hz bug is odd, though, much like the DualSense haptics, which need to be disabled and then re-enabled for them to work. Should be fixed in a future patch 🤷‍♂️

Ahh, so there it is. Based on US sales stats. And not necessarily even including CCU counts 🤷‍♂️

Still doesn't answer my question: is it the best wrt quality because its "most popular in US"? :unsure:

Yes, based on sales stats from the biggest market for AAA games. Also, you shared the UK market stats for Vanguard yourself. COD and FIFA are also the most popular games in the Middle East 🤷‍♂️

Populatity builds a commoooonity. A commooonity is what determines the quality of a game's multiplayer 🤷‍♂️ :LOL:

But a game doesn't have to "sell" the most to be most "popular", in any market 🤷‍♂️

CoD is hardly the biggest FPS commooooonity in the world, let alone compared to other genres :ROFLMAO:

The reality is that Battlefield 24-42 fps needs a commoooonity to compete with COD, and that commoooonity can only come via popularity and sales. AAA games, yo 🤷‍♂️:LOL:

You did your part, but what about everyone else? Oh right, there are bots to fill in for a lack of players 🤣

LMAO @ "needs a commooooonity". Pehle koi ek standard to bana lo apna.

Sea of Thieves ke CCU chahiye, but CoD or Animal Crossing ke CCU count pata bhi nahi. :ROFLMAO:

Splatoon 3 ko overhype kia hua, Splatoon 2 ka CCU bhi nahi pata :ROFLMAO:

Where are these "commooooonities"? :ROFLMAO:

Sea of Thieves never topped NPD or UK charts, despite Windows and Steam being factored in and despite it topping Steam sales charts 🤷‍♂️

I guess Game Pass helped, but once you unsubscribe, it's no longer yours 🤷‍♂️:LOL:

And it has like 25 Million logged users since its release in 2018, when it nailed its most essential component lol. There have been 4 CODs released since then 🤣

    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
