Mos1ey 6301 Posted March 16, 2013 But Dayz and League of Legends have no equals. Welcome aboard.I'm not a huge fan of MOBAs but IMO HoN and Dota 2 are a lot better than LoL. :) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ButtHat 96 Posted March 16, 2013 Ah, PC Gamers. Such elitist. They don't want to tell you that FPS games are actually EASIER on PC than they are on consoles. But, I do love the longer draw distances! Especially on BF3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cap'n (DayZ) 1827 Posted March 16, 2013 Welcome, friend. A good sum of DayZ players are people who've seen videos on youtube and decided to buy an entire new PC, just to play this game. You'll get accustomed to controls within a week or two. I look forward to hearing your stories of vanquishing bandits and eating beans, huzzah!. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NautilusGoose 7 Posted March 18, 2013 Wow!

How are they easier?He must be talking about the aim assist in all PC FPS games.Oh wait nope, that's console - my bad.The only advantage to using a mouse is the ability to quickly acquire a target since the mouse is a more accurate pointing device compared to joysticks.

Judging by the lack of response, I'm assuming it was just a hit-and-run trolling attempt. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) That's a nice build mate, enjoy! :)Why are you planning on playing on a 32" screen though? You'd be much better off playing on a small screen on a desk! :) Edited March 18, 2013 by mZLY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NautilusGoose 7 Posted March 18, 2013 Im greedy for pixels :) haha Nah, honestly I never thought about a monitor once I was told I could use the TV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PracticalTactical 164 Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) Been PC gamin' since 2001. Went to consoles around 2004-2005...those were the dark years. I saw the light and was reunited with PC gaming. I have never looked back nor bought a console since. Edited March 18, 2013 by PracticalTactical 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King of Blackheath 6 Posted April 7, 2013 I am intrigued as to how this went? You all sorted for Day Z? I currently play on my 42 inch LED and am desperate for a proper PC Monitor as the input lag does make it somewhat difficult in a firefight on Day Z. Gotta wait a paycheck of two for it though...
