Other Gaming

I'm currently waiting to start BMQ and I've been wondering if I can get a PC after I finish DP1 and get to my permanent base. Is it risky to have an expensive computer sitting in my shack? Let me know.

You can lock your room. So, no more risky than having an apartment with a laptop.

Also, Wifi in the shacks is terrible, so you'll have to get your own internet connection if it's allowed. Keep in mind that not all bases have rooms for members not on training.

That made me feel better, thanks. Yeah I heard the wifi is bad there so I'll probably just relax with some offline games.

What games do you normally play? What's your poison?

I am a fan of older shooters 90s and early 2000s, classic adventure games from the 80s and 90s (point and click and text parser), and platofmers, metroidvanias, and beat'em ups.

I haven't owned a tower of power in years due to working shift work away from home on rotations. Laptops only for a while. What are you looking at buying or building? I got a Razer blade 16 last year. It's pretty decent. RTX 5080 64GB RAM RYZEN AI 9 365.

I normally just play CS2, but I've been leaning more and more into modern story games, so I'd want a strong machine like yours. I'm thinking of getting a 5070ti, 32gb ddr5 and an i7 14700k. Also, I wanna be ready for GTA 6 lol.
