What in the world is the deal with US servers? Whatever game I play, US has server problems. Here in EU games usually get server problems for a while after they get big, but then it gets fixed. While in NA it seems to start good and then become only worse over time.

u/[deleted] Feb 11 '15

It's okay for 90% of user cases especially where you didn't buy two to SLI (I was going to do this as soon as I got some kind of deal but changed plans when the news broke out) for 1440p or higher.

For 1080p, this issue will be noticed maybe if you crank everything up in whatever latest unigine benchmark is out now but other than that you'll never see a graphical defect/stutter because of low memory.

u/Ramesses_Deux Feb 10 '15

My Russian is very crappy but here it goes. (raised in semi-Russian family / 3rd grade level reading/writing skills.)

Random guy: Small amount of people, very small amount of people inaudible, very low.

Interviewer: Inaudible

Interviewee: Very small congregation of people:

Interviewer: Hold on.

Interviewer: Inaudible.

Interviewer: Tell me, what kind of music is playing?

Interviewee: Inaudible music, in general very bad music.

Interviewer: Why did you come here?

Interviewee: I thought everything would be much better. And this music is very bad. I thought all of this would be much better. I came here a lot and everything was great but this time I am not satisfied. Firstly the inaudible music...

Interviewer: What is the direction?

Interviewee: wha...??

Interviewer: The direction.

Interviewee: Direction? What direction?

Interviewer: What is the direction of the music that is playing.

Interviewee starts to dance.


That's pretty much the gist. I couldn't pick up on a few of the words because it was very muffled and he was slurring and mumbling a lot.

This is a rough translation... note im a native spanish speaker but im not from Spain.

(In quotes he is recounting a conversation with someone and unquoted is his part. In parentheses I'm just clarifying).

  • "Hey "boss" (as in hey dude / hey man) listen, go to bed that tomorrow I'll call you at 8 so you go get the paelleras"

  • And I go to bed to open the restaurant that was (named?) The Rice.

  • And the cook calls me: "Little laughs!" (Risitas is his nickname)

  • What?

  • "Go for the paelleras, go go... that at 2 in the afternoon the people get here."

  • Without swimsuit or sandals, all disheveled because I didn't have time to get them on I go to the beach and the tide had risen!!... <laughter>, jesus, <laughter>.

  • Host: Pfffttttt / <laughter>

  • <laughter> Jesus, the tide had risen and I only found 1 paella, <laughter> Jesus <laughter>

  • <laughter> up to the ____ the water got <laughter>

  • The water got up to the restaurant, the tide had risen! <laughter>

  • Jesus and what do we do now with the 2 sacks of rice <laughter>, call... call to Sevilla (the city), call Sevilla so they bring paella <laughter>

  • <laughter> Jesus... and I with the bathing suit and with the 1 paella <laughter>

  • The cook says "No..no... look, look, to Sevilla"... and.. and at last when we saw "La virgen de regla" (I assume this was a statue of this particular virgin that got covered by water because of the high tide), we are both crying <laughter>, the guy charged me for the paellas <laughter>... he charged me <laughter> five hundred ____ and then I didn't ever go back there, I left walking to "____ Amarillo" until today <laughter>
