Default If anyone is struggling to get on The Ship servers

1. Click on 'View' in the top left hand corner of steam.
2. Choose 'Servers' from the dropdown menu.
3. Click on the 'Change Filters' button in the bottom left hand corner of the window and change the game type to 'The Ship'
4. Click on 'Refresh All' and double-click the server you want.

Steam have L.A. Noire with 67% off. Or even cheaper if you buy the bundled DLC version - that's cheaper as in pay even less, for more.

I know when this was first released that I wanted it, but there was also a lot of issues but can't recall if they were for just the console versions. So folks, how is it?

Crap on PC, I had extreme performance issues (for no obvious reason) and the controls sometimes had "ghost-input" where the players character automaticall enters/exits cars, opens notepad, puts it away again etc... and I had no joystick or controller connected at that time.
Errors still exist for me. Last time I tried was just ~2 months ago.

Game is pretty cool, yet not on PC in my opinion. A typical bad console-port...

yep, they implemented a 30fps cap, which is a joke for pc users acclimated to 60 fps use. normal human vision can detect up to 60-70 fps in monitors, so again, a joke limitation implemented by idiotic, clueless publishers.

and for what? because they though it would causes glitches to exceed the console 30 fps. you can tell they clearly didn't test this, because someone made a hack to enable 60 fps and it was running smooth as butter without a hitch. no facial glitches, no audio problems.

so in the end, it was all just a bs excuses made up by some imbeciles at rockstar who didn't want to spend one more second on developing a proper pc port.



and did i mention they patched the game expressly to impede the use of the aforementioned hack for none other than ego issues? someone at rockstar must have a small penis.

For anyone wondering why the Steam servers crashed so badly yesterday...I think this little mistake probably didn't help:



Sadly, I don't think anyone was able to get through the server gauntlet to claim their insanely cheap copy of GTA V before they fixed the mistake.

Been a bit underwhelming as far as the deals so far, and I keep checking other sites too much and finding better. I spent more on gog.com than Steam lately.

Quick tip for today: if you're looking to get Spintires, which is a daily deal on Steam for 50% off, get it for 75% off instead at Indiegala (where you still get a steam key).
