Larger scan hitbox for fish

The only way you can realistically scan fish, especially peepers, is when they're comatose or frozen with the stungun. Otherwise you've gotta resort to just spending 30-45 seconds swimming around and hardly nicking them to gain 1-2% of their complete scan.

    On a more serious note, maybe for controllers a sort of "aim assist" could be a solution. Which could of course also be enabled for KB+mouse users. I keep forgetting this game isn't an oldschool FPS.

    I'm on PC, and I always end up strobe-light-scanning fish. It's incredibly annoying. Gamer1000k's suggestion of just scanning the one in your hand is an ideal solution.

    yes, I agree completely..the same goes btw for when you're building stuff...sometimes I have to select a very particular spot for it to actually work..

    Something, perhaps the hitbox, has been letting fish enter my base, where they sort of swim around in the air. Has anyone else had this problem?

    I have it on the original XB1, and I can scan fish. Just takes a little bit of persistence. Oh, wait...

    Although, in all seriousness, the new XB1X is about as powerful as a mid-range gaming PC, so I've heard, and there are plenty of impatient Gamers on PC as well as Consoles.

    Mid-range you say, from which year are they finally able to cope with the raw power of entry level gaming rigs. 2014? :trollface: It used to be 2008, sooooooooo :trollface:

    It's rocking an RX 580 derivative, about on par with a GTX 1060 6GB. But it has 12GB VRAM. Soo..... It'll be alright for a while.

    Hmm, that is rather surprising. Well played Gates!

    12Gb Vram on a "GTX 1060" like. Would that amount of Vram actually make sense with the GPU's power on there? Surely they aren't claiming it can run 8K res :D

    Probably to run 4K and still be able to capture the last whatever amount of screen time, maybe something to do with streaming? I dunno, lol.

    Eh, here: https://gamingbolt.com/xbox-one-xs-12gb-memory-allowed-world-of-tanks-to-use-high-resolution-textures-dev-explains-lack-of-60fps

    And, eh, looks to be the system memory uses the graphics memory. https://www.windowscentral.com/xbox-one-x-specs

    I bet that thing is going to sound like a vacuum cleaner, I'll have my 120mm CPU cooler thank you very much and I'm probably gonna slap some 120mm fans in the case for good measure :tongue:

    Side note:
    My CPU cooler died recently so I had to get a new one, my vintage Coolermaster ATC-110-SX1 is now sporting a Scythe Mugen 5B, that thing is almost silent. ALSO, IT ALMOST DIDN'T FIT with just 2mm clearance :D It's an aluminium case, specifically built for 80mm case fans, so you can imagine that close call :D

    Although now that I have that near silent Scythe 120mm fan, I'm inclined to get some 120-80mm fan adapters to be able to replace the back and top case fans.

    Side note in a sidenote, any recommendations for an adapter like that. I'm kinda unable to find a store selling that stuff. Because most current cases are built for 120mm fans, but are definitely lacking the build quality of my case, really strange seeing all cases in this day and age being filled with plastics mostly... Evne stranger is the vastly superior temps I'm getting, which are a 51-52C on load vs ~67C on load most reviews seem to get when running the 2500K at 1.35-1.38 volts on ~4.2-4.5Ghz. Surely this can't be the case, I mean with those 120mm fans doing their job right, in these new fancy cases?

    In case you're wondering about the case, this is the sexy beast :tongue:

    Get yourself a Fractal Design S (with or without window, without has better sound dampening, but of course you can't see all your pretty Christmas lights inside). I have one and I love it. Or one of the other similar cases (3.5 & 2.5 drive slots behind the mobo, bottom mounted PSU (it's awesome, I thought it was weird at first but it's not) and buttloads of spots for fans and / or rads -- you can't go wrong with it.

    Well the thing is though, I'm not convinced by the temps these overclock reviewers are getting. I've even been able to run a 4.2ghz OC on the stock Intel cooler, with ~73C temps, that is just 5-8C more than the average in these CPU cooler reviews using a 2500K. Even my while my motherboard temp is similar to theirs with ~35-37C. Heck I've even run it on 4.9-5Ghz 1.45-1.48volts and it absolutely refuses to go above 62C with this new cooler vs 65-67C on just 1.37volts in these reviews

    So what gives... How are these new cases, with fans having a much higher airflow somehow worse than an aluminium case from days gone by with comparatively loud and inefficient 80mm fans :worried:


    I've run into this strange temperature issue with overclocking an AMD Barton 2500+, AMD Venice 3800+, Intel C2D Conroe E6420 time and time again and now with the i5 2500K... So I still feel like I want to try 120mm fans in here to see if I can kick even more heat out of the thing :D





    Although I must say, Fractal Design does have that vintage look, no fancy "cool" lights, no fuss, no doodads... Just a pure and elegant design, they have that Lian-Li look
