at work for another 2 hrs >< but my lil mini rig is ready main rig is on ice until i can clear its hardware dementia. any idea if they fixed the pathetic thunder druid dps? heard it was so low theyd spent the entire betas trying to kill lvl 1 spawns ><.

No idea. I only glanced at the first beta briefly and haven't been paying much attention until now.

Just had a power outage in the middle of the town lillith cut scene, I guess we'll see how well it auto-saves.

Seems to be running fine @ 1440p with my 6800 XT, although it's registering as using 15800(ish) memory. Game defaulted to ultra settings and is pushing 140+ FPS normally but there was one area (spider caverns) where it bogged down significantly. Cut scenes are 30 FPS which I'm assuming is a console limitation?

Interestingly, the game took over the RGB lighting on my Corsair keyboard by turning it all red with only the Q and Spacebar lit up in white (which happen to be the only two keyboard keys I'm using at the moment).

edit: The audio is pretty impressive as well.... fully submersive on my surround speakers, and they actually have a "Quad" option if a person didn't want to fiddle with the settings for 4 speakers in a 5.1 windows configurations.

yeah i had to change a setting in ique because of that lol even tried changing out my 3090fe color scheme during beta my front panel was wonky.

Running fine on my 3050 @ high 1080p settings, although I'm questioning using DLSS as it doesn't seem to be offering any kind of performance boost.

got up at 3 am suprise suprise my buds were up lol got in necro skeles still weak as wet paper bag in a tornado. but manage to get through some things.

Really impressed with the environmental audio. Certain locations (in town) have me looking over my shoulder to see what my better half is doing, but it's not her, it's the rear channel speakers.

The "Always MP" feels really weird to me, I'm not sure what the community norms are.... should I be jumping in when I see an open world event (blue or yellow circles) or is it considered improper to jump into somebody else's event? (Not sure how experience points work.... ).
