The Hearts of Iron series was always a lot of fun to play but well that comes out of the mouth of a “Paradox Fanboy”. I really love most of their strategy titles. I own a lot of them. Sure, you will get my suggestion when it comes to Paradox Interactive games if you love complex strategy games.

The Reason For AMD´s Mantle Driver Delay

Dennis

The AMD Mantle driver (AMD Catalyst 14.1 Beta driver) should have been released with the latest Battlefield 4 patch with Mantle support. But the driver was not released on time due to a last-minute delay caused by too late detected driver issues. That´s why AMD did hold back the driver. AMD wrote “We are putting the finishing touches on the AMD Catalyst™ 14.1 Beta driver, which enables support for Mantle and many other fabulous features. We appreciate your patience and will update you as soon as it’s ready for download!”. While we still don´t know for how much time the … Continue reading The Reason For AMD´s Mantle Driver Delay

I Bought The PowerColor Radeon R9 270X Graphics Card…

Dennis

I mentioned weeks ago that my old graphics card was toasted. That happened in a very bad time as I had other costs to pay the last months. I had some savings but I did save the money for something different. Anyway, I can be days and sometimes weeks without a computer game but then, well you know what I mean if you are gamer like me… you simply come to a point where you miss it to play games if you do not have proper hardware for it. I had this NVIDIA GeForce 7100 GS as a replacement and … Continue reading I Bought The PowerColor Radeon R9 270X Graphics Card…

DICE: BF4 Balancing Poll

Dennis

It´s no secret that BF4 is completely unbalanced. Some of my friends are pretty pissed about this fact but I told them that it is after all the trouble better if DICE would focus on bug fixing rather than balancing the game. Sure, it sucks how the game has been released but technical problems should be solved before the balancing. I still wouldn´t call BF4 problem-free but it is at least on a good way and next we really could talk about game balancing. That´s what DICE thought too… They did set up a poll about BF4 balancing and you … Continue reading DICE: BF4 Balancing Poll
