CONTROL |OT| Welcome to This Oldest House of Leaves

Man, walking through a doorway and seeing the screen filled with large text saying "RITUAL DIVISION" like that's a totally normal division to have, and then seeing three silhouetted figures floating in the air before you draped in a blood red light..
I mean, this game is just fucking cool as shit.

Just beat this. Really solid, except for the map being wonkey.
The way it ends leaves the door WIDE open for DLC content, which honestly will be a no brainer.
Love Remedy and would love to get this, but sadly can't afford to spend £45 on a game that has bad performance issues.
Remedy said today that they're looking at ways to improve performance but no ETA. And it won't be for at least a month, as they've said the next update (with specified changes) is coming mid to late Sept. Very disappointing.

Is the audio jacked for anyone else on PS4 (Pro)?
Like the sound effects, guns, etc., are all perfectly fine.
But most times, I can't make out the voices at all.
I have subtitles on by default (as with all games that provide me with the option), but if it weren't for them, I wouldn't understand a thing in the cutscenes.
Apologies if discussed. Did a quick thread search, but it didn't seem to turn up much.

Can't turn off the constantly highlighted objects which is ruining the gifs.
Don't your company have a RITUAL DIVISION!? Haha, yes, man. Remedy really went all-out over-the-top with Control. The characters, the correspondence, the whole supernatural premise that Remedy also care to explain through characters and notes and the blurry line between real physical spaces and concepts, and metaphorical ones is just sublime. The gameplay is also such a huge improvement on Quantum Break and is again on par with Alan Wake's if not even better.
Haven't finished it yet and I'm on my way to Jesse's brother, after roughly eight hours.
This happened to me once and the central speaker from my home theater had disconnected.
But it was not in this game.
It's been this way since I started playing Control. And it's only this game. Destiny, Remnant from the Ashes, Netflix. All fine.
bugger, forgot about those. i was messing about in an area without any objects so didn't realise, sorry!
If you like that stuff, be sure to check out SCP. That's the main source of inspiration for that aspect of the game.
I am loving this suit.
I really appreciate the fact that it has an inverted pyramid on the back
It's a community run blog-thing about fictional organization that contains anomalous items, people, and creatures with different article entries detailing these objects and events surrounding them.
It's wonderful! I recommend using a gaming mouse though. The extra buttons really helped keep all the powers accessible. It can be a bit cramped trying to do all of them on the keyboard and the game has good native support for extra mouse buttons.
That's odd. If you can, try copying your save to a USB or the cloud and reinstalling the game, then transferring your save back over.
Can I trick the game into allowing me a second save slot to stream the beginning for my friends by removing and backing up the data under "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Remedy\Control\Default-Epic-User\" or will shit get fucked up?
It's a creepypasta-esque community-wiki database about a government agency that collects, contains, and studies supernatural/cosmic horror/outworldly artifacts and events. The tone of the database is what Control's memos and briefings are emulating: clinical bureaucratic descriptions about tests, experiments, rituals and workplace management, etc.
Think I encountered a game-breaking bug. I had activated the Control Point outside the Quarry entrance, but when I started the game later, the Control Point is active but the area is warped and entrance blocked as it would before activating the control point.
Yes, although odds are you probably know you're missing them.
I guess the game is supposed to be played hip fire ala max payne
btw there is noticeable motion blur or stuttering when turning quickly... how do I remove or reduce that?

Yeah, E for Launch in particular can be awkward when you're in the middle of combat and want to strafe to the right.
The game at times plays out like a massive battle in the matrix universe. If this game is boring I want to see what those people find fun.
Just an update in case anyone finds themselves restarting a chapter like me: collectibles and resources go back to the way they were at the start of that chapter in your previous/most recent playthough, so it's basically just a regular save at that point seems like.
I'm in the maintenance sector now, did some sidequests, got a new power and weapon, fought a new enemy...
This game is neat.
I loved how the little sidequest to get the new power started. Good shit.
It's cool that the power is technically optional, but also really hard to miss by accident. It still rewards exploration, but without making anyone feel like their game is less fun because they didn't find a "secret".
It also allows them to not have to completely ignore that power when designing enemies and encounters.

The first enemy they introduce after you get evade is the Hiss Charged, and in case you end up close to them as they're about to explode, you can just dodge out of harm's way. It's super intuitive and effective, and I imagine just running away when they get close is not really an option anymore. It's still a fair fight without it, for any future "no upgrade challenge runs", since you can just pay attention and stop them before they get too close, but the ability gives you this extra chance of not taking damage.
Playing the game on my pro and the performance is noticeably bad when stuff starts popping off. I'm enjoying my time with it but it kind of takes you out of it.
Just finished. Loved it. I still like Alan Wake more in most regards, but damn if this wasn't a fun ass game that almost reached those heights. The telekinetic powers were a literal blast and the setting and atmosphere were awesome. So much detail and little things in this game that really flesh things out. I really look forward to the expansions. I hope they're meaty and really make use of the setting and possibilities it offers.
hmm. I think I...100%'d the game?
28 missions and side missions done, and from what I've read online, that's it. Oddly, there are no more sources of ability points? or am I missing something? I'm 7 ability points away from completing my ability table.
Anyway, I could grind for more absolute mods...but what for? lol
rip: Charge rocks. just don't...actually charge it. lol

I was able to Mod the control to turn of HUD. I'm now trying to enable free cam, will release it within 24-48 hours if all goes well.
Although its for PC only ofcourse. But if anyone is interested and don't want to wait till late sept for something official.
