There is an outage reported in SMW-4 west segment, this may result service degradation; any inconvenience is highly regretted.​

Kinda off-topic, but on-topic at the same time.

My internet has been pretty bad as well, my 8Mbps package isn't giving me more than 300-350 KB/s on IDM.
Browsing is crap and having some DNS issues where the page won't load until I refresh a few times, this happens with Auto DNS and OpenDNS.

Second question, anyone know what wireless modem PTCL is giving out nowadays?
I have the FiberHome AN1020-25U, connection is stable but wireless range sucks ass cause of the internal antennas, should I request for a new one?
If I do, what will they give me?
Good brand or some more shit?

Obviously its going to be shitty modem. Just buy a booster , i had the same issue

Booster for what?

I've heard that modems with Broadcom hardware can handle noise better and are the better choice if you have PTCL.
I had a TP-Link TD-W8951ND, but it had a RaLink chipset and kept disconnecting when I used it with PTCL.

I have a booster, two of them actually, but since the primary AP is shit (in my case the PTCL AN1020-25U), it won't help.
I can't keep the boosters that close to the primary AP since it defeats the purpose of a booster in the first place, so I need the primary AP (replacement modem) to be a device with external antennas.

    Personally i see only one game that should be truly deserving of GOTY title this year (if it delivers). And that's KCD:II

    The gameplay is generic & outdated in that game. And it's 5 hour campaign is too short to enjoy.

    About Hellblade 2, I just watched the story on a YT channel out of curiosity and I think it has the Hallmark of a GOTY this year. While many criticize the game and I also don't like this genre of game, I believe the story and visuals looks like a cenimatic masterpiece.

    It may win the "best visuals" category, but that's about it. A GOTY contender needs to nail all aspects (Story, Gameplay, Visuals, etc)

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.

    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.
