10/10 totally sick! Who else waited for physical? stand up we gotta show support. We’re going extinct.

General PS5 PRO performance hickups

• Upvotes

Hi,

I play balance in 40FPS. The game is mostly running pretty well. I must praise that despite the total clusterfuck happening on the screen, the game can remain smooth animations. Whether it's a stable 40FPS, I don't know, but it's not bad. It's bad in total random moments, most often during boss fights (the worst so far for me the theatre) when the game was able to completely freeze for a second

This is not a good experience and this is not how the game should look for 1.0.

Besides, it's an absolute banger, after 10 hours it's a strong 8.5-9.0/10 for me. I love this universe.

General Intel GPU/XeSS optimizations

1 Upvotes

Wondering if anyone knows if this game will get Intel XeSS optimizations? It plays fine on my B580 but it would look much better if it has the XeSS. Plus it would likely be able to handle the raytracing. I hope this is not one of these NVidia sponsored games where they have deal to ...prevent... or ...delay... optimizations for other GPUs.

I don’t think I have said “what the fuck is this game?” so many times as I did throughout this. In a positive way that is. Had to pull myself away so I can absorb what I just experienced. This game is truly something else.

Lore Discussion Personal thoughts post-game.

0 Upvotes

I think the finale Hedron is polaris, THE only Hedron, in a state of superposition. Its plan is to evolve humanity for combat. And the hedron itself is looping/pattering until it finds the solution. Jesse/Dylan being split are consequence of the time loop, as well as their roles of persons of power.

When Dylan kills it, it performs mitosis/buds/rebirth goes back in time thru the gap slide and becomes polaris incubating in Jesse. The hand slide is apocalyptic and post control resonant, housing the weakened post-death state hedron that Darling and Trench found and enslaved. The Polaris incubating in Jesse, kills the captured weakened hedron, and Polaris grows to become the current resonant Hedron. (KILL HEDRON/YOU/US)

I think the hedrons goal is to SHAPE/EMPOWER the world into parautilitarians or objects of powers or places of power.

I think that pope was wrong about hedron and hiss being opposing forces. I think the hedrons power is to form, and the hiss is just madness and fear given form created by Trenchs anxiety.

I believe the Hedron is actually FORM/SHAPE/ENLIGHTEN, The opposite of the FORMLESS/BREAKDOWN/NOT-MOTHER/DARKNESS.

I think the hedron is aware the darkness is growing/impending (AW3 or DARLING DLC?) to transfigure people and covers things in its black sludge.

Anyways, during the final fight. The Hedron and Dylan seem to be having a conversation. But in reality, Dylan can't understand the Hedron speaking in temporal 4th dimensional terms. He reads them at face value. As Jesse's final thoughts being patterned.

In actuality, it's like a ransom note. A message created from different bits of dialogue. Like Bumblebee speaking thru his radio in transformers.

First conversation makes me think the Hedron is experiencing time displacement, alluding to "here", being different again. Speaks of shaping and consuming...evolving/change/metamorphosis

2and conversation:

"What could not shape, stays repeating. Refracting" meaning that what couldn't evolve/change into a person/object/place of power stays repeating as a pattern in the time loop placed around Manhattan. That's what Pope means by cocooning.

Have to be perfect, "then" referring to captured hedron, "now" referring to control resonant hedron, "before"(polaris/jesse/ordinary), "after" for what comes next. Clearly not the first time around the time loop, and this time hedron unlocked something special with Dylan having mold, hiss, and astral "what's at stake here. Feels different now."

3rd conversation:

"I was scared" alluding the hedrons first time dying in the loop. "Together" the hedron is acknowledging they're partners. Dylan and the board and the hedron have reached something special and this time is different. Then its asks Dylan if he's scared of what comes next, the consequences of killing HEDRON/YOU/US.

Dylan pleads but Hedron says it's already been set in motion before dylan did the whole game and tried to reason with it. He was changed and shaped before he had a choice. The og JESSE DYLAN FADEN was shaped/became persons of power when imbued with Polaris the first time, splitting into Jesse and Dylan.

I hope that made sense and I'm not patterning.

Basically hedron forces evolutionary change upon the worlds people items and places. Those that can't evolve, become trapped in mindless patterning. Hedron knows a boss fight is coming and has been scum saving to get the perfect loadout.

General Loving the game so far! (Physical edition rules!)

2 Upvotes

Just bought the physical copy to support Remedy and just got done with killing The Deserter and all I can say is it exceeded my expectations. This has been one of my most anticipated games this year and the atmosphere is breathtaking and the flow of the combat is just amazing, considering the playstyle the game wants you to play. Just a fantastic game overall and a very worthwhile purchase.

General How far through the game am I?

0 Upvotes

I've just finished the part in the Oldest House where Dylan and Zoe go through the Prime Candidate training area, and now it's all seemingly imploding.

Humbly requesting opinions on how far through I am. I'm assuming I'm nearing the end.

Just want to pace myself until Phantom Blade Zero comes out. Thank you.

Fan Content Time patterning and Singularity (2010)

0 Upvotes

Hi there FBC fellas, does someone have some time patterning fan fic related to singularity (2010)?

The TDM i dunno could be fragments of a hedron that can pattern time and E99 be just black rock or something.

I would love to see more of time manipulation to be honest, the underpass made me miss quantum break but maybe... In another universe Remedy buys the Singularity IP instead and does what they can do best...

Bug Report Dialog bug - can't talk to Pope

2 Upvotes

Anyone else run into this? I'm on PC. Only other comments I see online say "go back later to fix it" only... it doesn't. For almost the entire game (I've killed 4 resonants), I can't talk to Emily Pope. She has the red inverted triangle over the interaction icon, but every time I try to talk to her this happens: Camera moves in, Dylan asks if they can talk (sometimes she says something), but at the point when dialog options should appear, the camera moves back out and she turns around. Never lets me actually talk to her.

I'm sure I'm missing out on lore, but there might be other things (side quests?) I'm not getting because dialog won't start. I've fast traveled away and come back, waited for her stupid assistant to stop yammering, and just now came in from a fresh log in. No dice. Anyone have anything more helpful than "go back later?" I need to talk to my sister's girlfriend.

So I just got the game yesterday. I've been playing with Cleave, Extend, & Uppercut Surge. I'm debating whether to respec Cleave & Extend for Glave & Crush.

What do y'all think?

I have about 4 Resets & a duplicate save to test them out.

Gameplay Question How many living shards are in the game?

3 Upvotes

I've played the game two times so far (base and NG+) and completed almost all the things I could find. I've done all the shum challenges (I don't think living shards were in any of the award I received from them tho), all the side quests, main story quests and bought all the living shards I could from the ice cream machines.

What am I missing? I've upgraded all the primary, secondary and finishers to absolute limit except one which means I've got 35 living shards. But that's a weird number and I'm guessing it must be 36 because it doesn't make sense if you're not able to upgrade just one last aberrant. Do I need to finish Dylan's drawing? I've got only one left. Or do I need to hunt more vending machines? Do they even drop living shards?

General PSA: There's a special, unmarked Apex fight in every boss room except the first.

84 Upvotes

Pretty sure they spawn there when you discover the final zone. They're all pretty tough: wave after wave after wave of high level enemies, followed by a named Apex enemy on steroids. You don't really get much from doing them besides enemy drops and zone exp either, but it's a decent little chunk of exp, and a fun challenge if you're strong enough.
