general-chat

[tired hare]

Tbh I enjoy it

[inner arrow]

The 2004 punisher game was good. It wasn't forgettable or anything like that. It was just good.

Yeah I know. But when I want to just play a little game and then play the little game and then quit they shouldn't need to ask why I closed it 😛

[worn shale]

i sometimes forget how many licesned games we got in the 2000s. Star Wars especially.

[upper meteor]

Wanna know what else came out in 2004 and was very punishing

[inner arrow]

Halo 2

[native fern]

halo 2 was amazing

[upper meteor]

Halo 2

[worn shale]

Ninja Gaiden on Xbox

[tired hare]

Halo 2 is peak halo

[native fern]

so was halo 5

[tired hare]

[inner arrow]

Pre Halo 1 was peak Halo 😛

[upper meteor]

U mean pre halo 5

[tired hare]

Halo: spartan assault was the peak of halo

[native fern]

halo infinite is good aswell, and number 4

[worn shale]

so, Marathon trilogy?

[inner arrow]

Damn... I forgot Marathon. Yeah not that stuff.

[tired hare]

Halo infinite is good just very slow when it comes to meaningful new stuff

[young jolt]

Halo infinite being good, nice joke bud. Halo Reach and Halo 3 are perfect

[inner arrow]

Marathon still looks like an amateur project sorry not sorry

[native fern]

https://tenor.com/view/halo3-halo5-halo-meme-meme-willem-dafoe-gif-22995566

[worn shale]

i was told Marathon was phenomenal

[inner arrow]

The aliens look so goofy

[worn shale]

okay now i NEED to play this

[inner arrow]

Also the god damn music and sound effects... horrible

[native fern]

halo inf is good though? ask icky

[inner arrow]

Honestly the music was fine... just the sound effects were horrible

[tired hare]

Halo infinite could easily rivel reach and 3 they just need to get meaningful stuff out a lot quicker

[upper meteor]

Halo reach is far from perfect lol

[inner arrow]

No Halo is truly perfect

[tired hare]

Nothing is perfect but it is the best Halo atm in my opinion

[mellow roost]

Same goes for Halo 3. Perfect wouldn't be anywhere close to the description I'd give it. 😜

[inner arrow]

Halo isn't the kind of series that has a peak game that is literally the definition of peak.

[upper meteor]

ahem halo megabloks game ahem

[inner arrow]

FZero has a peak game and that is GX. Every FZero fan agrees. Literally EVERY fan.

[native fern]

halo 5,4,and infinite>>any other halo

[upper meteor]

What

[tired hare]

I think reach and infinite are close

[native fern]

u heard me

[inner arrow]

Icky thinks Halo 3 is peak, I think Halo 2 and Reach are peak. Others say other games.

[worn shale]

uh. 5 is DESPISED and 4 is mostly a mixed reception

[tired hare]

Idk about 4. I’d say 3 is up with 5 and Infinite just because of how big it was when it dropped and the innovation.

[inner arrow]

4 had the problem of an antagonist who died too early

[tired hare]

5 is the worse one in my opinion

[native fern]

idk why people hate 5, the multiplayer and campaign was amazing

[worn shale]

from what im told, 5's story was HORRIBLE

[upper meteor]

I can't hear text

[tired hare]

Definitely the worst campaign

[tired hare]

5’s campaign is despised, but overall 5 has a great reception in terms of MP

[inner arrow]

5 had interesting story that wasn't told in the game basically

[tired hare]

Oh yeah without a doubt

[inner arrow]

Worst campaign without a doubt tho is the first. There I said it.

[tired hare]

It was just a little bit worse than Reach’s I’d say. That being said, Reach was awful.

[native fern]

#halo-chat is back

[worn shale]

yet 5 hasnt had a pc port while 1-4 and infinite are on pc. wouldnt 5 be on pc if it was well received overall?

[cinder veldt]

I was fooled

[upper meteor]

5

[inner arrow]

The last third of that game is only "Go through the same corridor you saw before but isn't the exact same one but just looks like that one again and again and again"

[worn shale]

Reach had a wacked out story, idk why people liked it so much.

[native fern]

dw I was aswell, I didn't know there was a halo channel lmao

[inner arrow]

If I could describe the last third of the first halo I would call it groundhogday

[cinder veldt]

I know about the halo channel but I was fooled when you said halo-chat

[native fern]

Ohh

[worn shale]

nah you want pain? The Library in Halo 1

[tired hare]

There’s Halo 5 forge and customs which are on PC, and 5 would compete too much with Infinite for it to be a good port right now. 5’s MP and Forge was top tier and just got some bad reception from folk that couldn’t handle slight changes to gameplay mechanics (which every darn halo has)

[tired hare]

Because I liked how scary it was seeing super soldiers dying showing that there never any winners in war

[inner arrow]

Presentation. It was the whole presentation about soldiers doing their god damn job and dying heroically. Also the fact that everyone died in terms of their personality and stuff. Like you know... the brains of the team ||got shot in the head||?

[mellow roost]

Okay I'm officially living with an absolute madman.

[tired crescent]

I honestly would pick the library over two betrayals any day of the week

[worn shale]

how would it compete too much with Infinite?

[inner arrow]

Also the whole soldiers looking unto a battlefield sadly while stuff is going on resonated with people. Was entirely different from what COD did back then.

[upper meteor]

5 minutes ago: i might die of cuteness

[worn shale]

but the characters werent even all that interesting. and thats the main issue. i didnt care when someone ||died||

[inner arrow]

Wait... wow... That's sudden.

[tired hare]

Because it was a fantastic game that had a metric ton of content and the best darn forge in Halo history that blew the pants off anything that came before it. Heck on Xbox it still had a stable population before Infinite dropped

[noble trout]

Wow. Bonnie's an awesome person. Hope her family is OK.

[tired hare]

I wonder if this also because of the awful hashtag that going around

[inner arrow]

Yes and that is okay. I agree that the characters didn't get much breathing space. But that's just how it was meant to be. You shouldn't care for them but somehow if you have empathy and everything you lowkey do. And you still kinda care. The more you play it the more you care.

[worn shale]

they could just drop the campaign for 5 into MCC

[mellow roost]

They're taking a raw tomato, putting tajin and soy sauce on it and then haphazardly sticking a chunk of pepperjack cheese on it.

I think I've corrupted their soul.

Then just shoving it in their face.

[inner arrow]

I hate that Halo fans are trying to find a culprit in their maniacally war against 343 because they think they are entitled to everything smh

[worn shale]

now, Halo 3 ODST. THAT was a good game.

ODST had a phenomenal campaign thats only crime was being too short

[inner arrow]

I didn't like ODST 😅

[tired hare]

That’s more effort than it’s worth. Plus they’d need to retool the REQ system. I wouldn’t be surprised if we got a port in some time but that’d definitely be after Infinite gets more stable

[worn shale]

i loved it

[native fern]

the yappening is a fun gamemode

[tired hare]

It’s funny to see Reach fans try to defend the game’s failure to make good characters or have any development beyond “oh they died” because “they only had one game” when ODST did it just fine.

[inner arrow]

Problem with ODST was just the traversal in the city. I would have loved to have a grabling hook in that one.

[worn shale]

ODST had characters i actually cared about, thats why i loved it so much

i remember someone i used to be friends with said it best: in Reach, you're TOLD that your character is awesome. in ODST, you're SHOWN your character being awesome

[worn shale]

i liked the city parts. they were fun, chill sequences that didnt overstay their welcome

man i gotta replay ODST.

[upper meteor]

W h a t

[mellow roost]

I said what I said. 💀

[tired hare]

What I love most about ODST is how alone you feel for most of the campaign while your nameless character, walks around the rain trying to figure out what happened to their teammates.

[upper meteor]

The rookie's name has been revealed lol

[tired hare]

True, but that’s not their real name lol

They reveal it when they talk about his ||headstone||?

[noble trout]

Yay. iOS 16 update prompt.

[worn shale]

yeah i got my android update a few days ago.

[inner arrow]

Thanks Randy. Would have missed it otherwise

[noble trout]

They'd have told you in a week 😉

[worn shale]

no matter what i do i cant get used to iPhones and i use one for work lol

[inner arrow]

True. But I am a tech freak so I want it NOW 😛

[worn shale]

apple does make some good tech. mostly their bluetooth stuff. their bluetooth suite is INSANE

[young fog]

Same, only 4 hours left for the dl now 😄

[lyric jetty]

Ouch that's quite a while

[worn shale]

i do like that apple stuff is just all interconnected too. really good for businesses.

[inner arrow]

The download is already done for me. It's installing now.

[young fog]

Sorry, 5 hours now 😄

1000/1000 fiber connection but Apple servers are 🔥 probably

[lyric jetty]

Mine was done in 6 minutes

now need to plug my phone into the wall and install

[young fog]

says 8 mins now 😄

That was a quick 4h52min I tell you

[fiery python]

I'll just wait until Friday when my phone arrives to update to 16. This phone will get factory reset on that day any way.

Ah wait, I'll need both on the same version to transfer data. Guess I'll do it.

[noble trout]

I'm not sure what to do.

I've got a Pro coming quickly but the Pro Max isn't coming until October.

And I dunno which I'll need.

(eyesight is still messed up due to shingles)

[fiery python]

I managed to get my Pro Max secured for Friday thankfully.

[halcyon stratus]

Pro Max is just so big 😦

[tired hare]

i have an se 2020, good enough for me

[noble trout]

I waited an hour before ordering the Max.

Messed up everything.

[halcyon stratus]

I use mine as a camera a ton and even have a tiny tripod grip for it so the max is just way too much for all of that

[noble trout]

I mean I can always start with the Pro and sell at at work for a slight loss.

[fiery python]

I'm used to the Pro Max now after having the largest phone Apple offers for quite a while. Using anything smaller just feels weird and tiny.

[tired hare]

the bigger a phone is the more i worry i'll break it

[noble trout]

For me it's about what fits in jeans.

That's kept me away from the Max but if I can't see the Pro?

Gotta up the font to a level where I have one word on screen at a time, and that's IF the app even supports it right.

Pfooo.

[tired hare]

update is installing now

[calm mountain]

[tired hare]

Idk why but whenever I see a dude refer to a woman as “female” it gives me weird vibes

[merry palm]

Yeah it should give you weird vibes.

Bc it's weird

[tired hare]

[mellow roost]

It's dehumanizing.

[dark sparrow]

https://youtu.be/LgqOQIP6ixg Midwestern Nice Off, lol.

[tired hare]

Yeah, he turned it from the mess it was to the GOAT

[patent orchid]

Alright my bad -

[mellow roost]

I don't think you meant any malice. No harm, no foul, just letting you know. 😄

[patent orchid]

I definitely wasn't meaning anything. I'll keep that in mind

[merry palm]

And let any of your dude friends know not to say that too!
😆

[tired hare]

ok then halo infinite is saved

[merry palm]

It's all the red flags usually

[tired hare]

I mean the videos they showed indicated a lot of steps in the right direction but this leadership shakeup definitely pushes up the improvement timeline imo. Even the biggest Halo doomers i know are excited

[dark sparrow]

Tbh, i find that when I'm driving, i usually refer to the person in front of me as "guy".

[merry palm]

It's not at all the same

[patent orchid]

I only have one, but yes I'll tell him

[dark sparrow]

Yeah, i guess my brain just defaults to saying guy when i don't know the gender.

[tired hare]

That’s pretty normal for a guy, same with a girl. On average they’ll default to girl.

[merry palm]

What I am saying is that calling someone 'female' as in like.. 'that female' is not the same as saying 'that guy'

[mellow roost]

As do a lot of people. It's become, as dumb as this may sound, pretty gender-neutral.

I still try to substitute it either way and use as little gendered language as possible, but even so, the colloquial usage of the term has entered the dictionary.

[patent orchid]

I haven't started driving yet but my mom refers to them as person, or a explicit word if they did something like cut her off

[merry palm]

I call them idiots.. it's very gender neutral 🤣

[wild mulch]

Are the phones shipping on Friday?

[dark sparrow]

I got cut off last night and nearly rammed into the person, said some not nice things.

[mellow roost]

Is it just my family or does everyone default to calling pets a "she"?

[fiery python]

The new iPhones? Delivering on Friday, so shipping Thursday.

[merry palm]

Just yours

I typically default to male everything

[patent orchid]

My mom did that once. It was at a Wendy's parking lot and the lady in the other car flipped her off

[wild mulch]

Oh neat okay. Thanks!

[patent orchid]

Just you, sometimes

[mellow roost]

I've honestly lost count of how many times I've been around family members who have called a dog a she, only for it to turn around and be like...yeah absolutely not a she.

[dark sparrow]

One of my old cats was named Gus, my parents thought it was a boy but turned out to be a girl.

[merry palm]

But like..I was surrounded by boys so that was my normal

[patent orchid]

My cat is a dude

[tired hare]

Idk. That hasn’t been my experience

[merry palm]

Even my stuffed animals are typically male unless I actively think about it to have them not be

Is standard in my brain 😅

[tired hare]

My fiancé calls just about every dog she sees a he.

[mellow roost]

Interesting.

[tired hare]

I think that’s just because she doesn’t like girl dogs as much though.

[cinder veldt]

I just stand there 😿

[dark sparrow]

I find that female pets are more well mannered (and smarter) than male, at least for me.

[mellow roost]

Yeah I've had the same anecdotal experience.

[tired hare]

Same here

[dark sparrow]

May be biased because my current dog whose a boy is a bit of a doofus.

[mellow roost]

Especially when it comes to dogs. I've never been around super loud and...unfortunately annoying female dogs. They're usually pretty chill.

[halcyon stratus]

“Who’s a good boiiiii” is such a standard thing to say to dogs

[dark sparrow]

I miss my last dog, named Holly, sometimes.

[tired hare]

Hopefully they help bring halo infinite back

[mellow roost]

Now my uncles two male beagles (if they're still around)? Forget it. They hear someone kick a rock 25 miles away and it's ROOOOOOO for 15 minutes.

[worn shale]

they always ask whos a good boy, but never how's the good boy?

[halcyon stratus]

And “oh! Who’s a pretty kitty!” to kitties.

Almost to the point where my default is to assume dogs are boys and cats are girls lmao

[tired hare]

I wonder can animals have nightmares

[dark sparrow]

I know, he barks at anyone who even is on the same block as my house.

[merry palm]

Boys can be pretty!!!

[dark sparrow]

Yes, mine have had multiple, just stroke them softly.

[mellow roost]

Yep. Saw that coming.

[tired hare]

Tbh I just want more halo and I'm happy

[worn shale]

big agree. ever seen Box Box's Riven cosplay? 😍

[tired hare]

Would it work with dwarf hamster

[dark sparrow]

[merry palm]

I grew up surrounded by guys and I am genderfluid so it's like.. meh gender 🤣

[tired hare]

What is genderfluid

[worn shale]

non binary here. gender is overrated

[merry palm]

Excellent 👌

[merry palm]

My gender isn't the same all the time. Sometimes I am a girl and sometimes not.
It's not really a big deal

[worn shale]

what gender are you currently? i wanna make sure i use correct pronouns

[tired hare]

This is brilliant mental health is just as important as physical health

[merry palm]

Any pronouns listed in my roles are fine.

[cinder veldt]

okay yup, that does sound quite fitting but to me instead but idk lol

Just makes me a target

I've never been more smitten by an instrument that would be totally wasted on me 😄

[mellow roost]

Ohhh. 😩😩😩

[merry palm]

Oh. Yeah I suppose? I don't have anyone I'd really announce it to, at present. Bc then it's like.. a hassle mostly?

[lunar panther]

Of course haha

I assume it'd also just be super unnecessary to announce in most cases?

I bought it on pc im confused

[noble trout]

Welcome to Monday.

By the way iOS 16 is available too.

[cerulean basin]

If you bought it from the PC app, it should have been for PC.
You would have received an email with the receipt though, that should point to what platform you bought it for.

[mellow roost]

This is so visually appealing to me.

[queen stump]

Right?!

It gives me Ghost in the Shell vibes and I'm all for it!

my gf ordered me mcdonalds. i love her so much

[cerulean basin]

You should be able to request a refund, buy it from the Ubisoft Connect app instead.
Not sure you can actually buy Ubisoft games for PC from the Xbox app.

@tepid yarrow, you can request a refund through here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/subscriptions-billing/buy-games-apps/refund-orders

If you buy the game from the Ubisoft Connect launcher you can make sure you get the PC version instead.

how do i add weather widgets to my lock screen on ios16 with a custom wallpaper 😦

[tired hare]

At taco bell it's taco monday now.

But if you do decide to go to college for it you should definitely study the program of places you want to apply, see if they have pre-reqs like English Composition and whatnot, and knock them out at a community college you know you can transfer credits from. Can save you tens of thousands of dollars

[grave finch]

leaked

[old chasm]

Definitely a leak

[grave finch]

will be announced in 8 days

[old chasm]

Definitely a chonky card lol

[cinder veldt]

I hope whatever that is is not true, looks well not super good to me

[grave finch]

over-chonky some might say

[weak kiln]

Just replayed the ENTIRE BIOSHOCK series

[old chasm]

That's not nvidias founder card. It's another makers. Amps to be precise

[fiery python]

Agh, they moved the notifications on iOS from the top to the bottom.

[grave finch]

yeah, soon will be ours for a cheap MSRP of 4999

[old chasm]

Lol

[cinder veldt]

still

[tired hare]

That won’t be MSRP. MSRP will be $2k and then you’ll only be able to find them for $6k

[grave finch]

exactly

Scalpers to the rescue

[grave finch]

even nvidia's CEO confirmed it a few weeks ago that they are limiting supply for whatever reason

[tired hare]

Scalpers

[grave finch]

there won't be that many on sale until around the next fall

I wish I was making this up, scalpers will have a run

Well yeah. We can see that with what happened last time lol

Huge.

Like 4k+ pieces each.

That's multiple Disney castles in price

[inner arrow]

New os is kinda neat ngl

[noble trout]

oop, sorry: the Destroyer is over 4K+ pieces. Falcon is 7500 and AT-AT is 6700.

That's a TON of money for plastic.

Props to the Amazonian suggestion/recommendation algo tho.

[halcyon stratus]

Me if my team still had a dedicated enclosed room to work in instead of stupid shared space 😉

[noble trout]

Much better than when you buy a TV and their next suggestion is "Hey... you like TV's? How about these two other TVs?!"

If that is a purple dress, you should get it

Purple? The dress looks gold to me

if you know, you know

[merry palm]

That was so much drama, I remember

[scarlet river]

Ya, but for once it was drama I didn't mind seeing or getting involved in.

I'd rather that drama than the political, religious or other crap that gets drama'd about.

[merry palm]

Yeah fair point

I don't like people arguing around me. It makes me sad

Yes I moderate, bc idk why 😆

I have 10.0.22621.1836 rn

Whatever the current GA build is. Have your console check for updates. If none are available, then you're on the latest build

[tired hare]

wow iOS 16 is broken...

Yes , yes I do want that ty

[tired hare]

yes it has 2 options and says none of these are available right now

the hours for chat support it says its available 24/7 monday to sunday yet it says its unavailable

[scarlet river]

Damn, if only search engines worked.https://www.google.ca/search?q=Contact+xbox+support

[halcyon stratus]

I’ve been using it for many betas without too many issues.

My major complaint is how it is wayyyy to easy to enter “Lock Screen customization mode” - I often pull my phone out of my pocket to see it is in edit mode

[tired hare]

for some reason the uk one works but the greek says its unavailalbe anyways ima try this one

[scarlet river]

Then that's something w/your region. We have no control over that.

[iron flame]

I live in Greece too I can check if its a region problem

[cerulean basin]

There probably are several ways to reach out support in Greece, just not always that upfront

[lunar panther]

@iron flame please report any suspicious posts using the official methods

[tired hare]

the greek site didnt even have some support options anyways i found live chat w an xbox emplyee thxfor the help

[iron flame]

When I was younger my dad used to just call them

Thats how we got customer support, via phone

[sage ice]

you can't call anymore

[tired hare]

u can call but its a little expensive for out of country calls

[cerulean basin]

In some countries it is mandatory to provide a local phone support service, mind you

[sage ice]

fair, in the US the option to call has been removed.

[iron flame]

If u live in greece and call them then I dont think there's any extra charge since the guys working there are greek and its a greek phone number

[tired hare]

and my country doesnt even have xbox cloud yet sad

its not even possible if you have lost complete track of the ubi account

[grave finch]

what is wrong with Steelrising, dear God

[cerulean basin]

They've been expanding quite rapidly with Cloud Streaming, but yeah, it takes time to set up worldwide, and some countries not sure they'll get it in many years

[tired hare]

theres a general issue w cloud services etc nvidia xbox google

[halcyon stratus]

Yea, all of them are scams. The cloud doesn’t exist, it is all just other peoples’ computers!

[rich aurora]

The cloud is stored on the ground, that seems not misleading at all!

[halcyon stratus]

Some of google and Microsoft infrastructure is under the water. That’s the absolute opposite of being in the sky. This is all such a house of cards.

Extraction is quite fun, haven't played it in a while though

My friends are... less of the strategic kind, more guns blazing

[tired hare]

i prefer stealth for a tom clancys game

[cerulean basin]

The Tom Clancy game I've played the most is The Division 2 😛 Not exactly stealth, since the moment you attack anyone, all enemies get immediately alerted. Different style of game ofc.

[tired hare]

i had bought it with 2 bucks on like christmas lmao

[cerulean basin]

There's gonna be a whole load of The Division content coming, now that we have 2 more seasons coming and a Year 5 officially announced, plus Heartland as a free to play PvEvP survival, and Resurgence for mobile

[dark sparrow]

Alright, time to watch a 3 hour documentary on halo for the fifth time.

I need to find a better time waster than rewatching a documentary

[scarlet river]

• Playing Video games,

• Watching lathe videos on YoutTube
• Staring out the window
• Talking on Discord
• Arguing with people on Reddit

[sterile plover]

Can we unban my friend snaps?

[ashen yarrow]

I would take advantage of cloud streaming if my internet was better. I get like 480p and 2 seconds input delay with my internet though

[fiery python]

No

And asking for a friend to be unbanned will get you banned.

[ashen yarrow]

Also freezes a lot

[sterile plover]

sorry

[tired hare]

Can I use Bluetooth earbuds on Xbox

[fiery python]

No

Xbox has no bluetooth

[scarlet river]

What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen Swallow?

[tired hare]

Trick question. You haven’t specified African or European

There are actually Bluetooth adapters that you can plug into the controller but at that point you have a dongle hanging from them and who wants that?

At that point you may as well use a wired headset

[swift thistle]

just found out about the semi conductor plant thats being built in Ohio

[cerulean basin]

I just went for an Xbox-specific headphone set that also supports PS, Switch and PC.
Love having the slider for game audio vs voice chat

[tired hare]

I'm not sure if playstation headphones support multi devices but they look so cool

The White is so classy and elegant

[hollow halo]

Astro A50s are such a good headset that’s Xbox/Pc and I think they support ps but it might be a separate headset for ps. That’s if you wanna spend $300. Probably the best investment I’ve made in a while

[tired hare]

Noted

[ashen yarrow]

I love my Astro a10s

[tired hare]

Gears 5 is just brilliant with high end headset

U can hear the smallest of sounds

[hollow halo]

A10s are good too, the 50s are a massive upgrade tho

[safe thunder]

Are there any ways I could end up getting rust public without spending 50 more gay dollars??

[ashen yarrow]

The Astro A10 sound quality is amazing for someone who isn't an audiophile, the microphone is just plain great, and it's comfy

[tired hare]

Gay dollars?

[hollow halo]

Sometimes I let my sister use my 50s and I use my 10s still.

[tired hare]

Fair play to u

Afternoon people

Nice pfp

[minor flame]

I'm so happy, just won a digital copy of Steelrising from the official Xbox twitch channel

[tired hare]

Congratulations

Thx advance warfare is underrated

[hollow halo]

Gg

[hollow halo]

It really is, just the system they used for supply drops and same thing with bo3 but bo3 did it better.

Sorry for the ping

[random helm]

Hi

[worn shale]

no, you can on switch tho

[tired hare]

I only play bo3 and bo4 for the zombie maps also I have the ping symbol in my liner so it's okay to ping me

[tired hare]

I bought my SNES controller and it's coming today, I'm kinda scared cause FedEx is delivering it

[worn shale]

"One rather ingenious method of connecting your wireless headset to Xbox One is joining the console to your Windows PC or Mac. With the computer as the end-user device, you can now efficiently utilize your Bluetooth headphones to tether sounds!

Technically, you should be able to enjoy the full Bluetooth audio functions in this method (i.e., the game audio & party chat)."

[hollow halo]

I didn’t see that until you mentioned it. Bo3 multiplayer was only good for the first 2 years. Now zombies is the only thing keeping it up

[merry palm]

I have made a choice.. not sure if it's a good one for the day. I am at the dollar store and there is a lot of cute stuff

[hollow halo]

Oh no

[worn shale]

im sure itll be fine

[tired hare]

I have a every cod that has a zombies mode and I preordered the new mw2 vault pack for like $106

[tired hare]

Don't do it they look cute but think how much you would benefit from saving it

It was a terrible idea I think
I'm just not a fan of spending money even if I have it

[swift thistle]

youve never made a good choice untill you buy the 600 dollar 5 ft mareep plush

[tired hare]

Tasked failed successfully?

[unique wasp]

money should go to food, rent, bills, investments. Video games are free, just claim them on epic games

[tired hare]

Nope you just very careful with your money and that is perfectly okay

[sullen badger]

Hi

[tired hare]

Yeah couldn't care less about really expensive stuff just as long as it works and isnt damaged

[merry palm]

They have peeps bath bombs

[hollow halo]

Mw2 isn’t gonna have zombies tho. I just looked it up

[tired hare]

What type tes

[swift thistle]

Peeps bath bombs?
eat them

[cinder veldt]

I have seen many think MW2 will have zombies, modern warfare games have never ever had it

[tired hare]

I don’t love the cronch.

[tired hare]

Dew it get them treat yourself

[swift thistle]

[tired hare]

Yeah I know, but I had to get it

[merry palm]

The dollar store is the best. Big shopping spree and it's like.. 20 dollars lol

[tired hare]

Yeah unless u were running mods (sorry in advance) but I have to say the leaks they've been dropping look ehh alright I guess

[unique wasp]

ikr, got cheap soda, 5 litres for 1.5 euros. They dont taste good but its cheap

[hollow halo]

Going to good will is usually my favorite place for a shopping spree.

[tired hare]

They need to finish the ghost story, I'd pay good money to witness that

[merry palm]

No pings, thanks

[tired hare]

Also who thought alien mode was a good idea

[long maple]

yeah doesnt MW titles get the Spec Ops mode

[cinder veldt]

yea

[tired hare]

Yeah they should finish it, I'd buy it

Wait huh? U serious?

And they'll charge $70+ for it and there I'll be playing it lol

All I have is Mendez rn

Ehh maybe since they put vanguard and black ops integrations but I doubt it

[brazen adder]

Last episode of HoTD was wierd as hell.

[hollow halo]

I loved ghosts. Although I was like 13 when I played.

[brazen adder]

13??

Let me Math rq

[tired hare]

Still waiting on sequel after cliff hanger 🤣

[hollow halo]

I think I got it in 2014

[silver pasture]

I use to play COD till I realized that leveling up ur irl character is more important.

[tired hare]

I like how warzone is releasing new skins or the rare ones
Why the last season of warzone ends in 1 day and 20 hours and none of it is going to be in the new game

[brazen adder]

Most people's first cod is there first experience with a high budget story and multiplayer in a modern shooter.

[tired hare]

My first cod was mw3 then BO1

[cinder veldt]

Me having to say my info looks good every week to use my xbox 😫

[cerulean basin]

I think my first high budget story and multiplayer shooter was Perfect Dark

[brazen adder]

Well technically it's the highest budget on the market so that's not fair to call it a regular high budget. It's actually the highest budget. Something like 'homefront' would be better or battlefield. Tbh I'm not sure if battlefield back then had a higher budget.

[tired hare]

Wow ngl that was a good game alongside 007 for the N64

[brazen adder]

You still had the adrenaline and excitement from early experience that dies out through time though. I was a true hater for everything that wasn't mw2.

[hollow halo]

I wish games still had open betas. I feel like company’s are too afraid to do so.

[dark sparrow]

I just randomly heard Sean Baron saying Halo CE is a competitive game, i think I'm going crazy.

[unique wasp]

Perfect Dark was nice, it didnt hold your hand with the mission objectives, you had to use your brain or else fail. That is very rare in newer fps campaigns

[cerulean basin]

Plenty of companies still have open betas

Multiversus had a pretty lengthy open beta as a recent example

[brazen adder]

Halo for me was a fun game and COD was for sweating. Battlefield dropped the ball after 5 but they a are usually fun.

[swift thistle]

and it was only untill recently fortnite left beta

[tacit robin]

Overwatch 2 too

[dark sparrow]

Tbh, games hold your hand a lot more these days

[brazen adder]

Ow 1.1

[tired hare]

The excitement I had for the series is long gone but I still play it cause it's ruined my enjoyment for other fps shooters

[cerulean basin]

Wasn't Overwatch 2 a closed beta? Sure, it wasn't that hard to get an invite, but still not open

[brazen adder]

Overwatch 1 with a patch

[tacit robin]

sure, i never said it was open

[cerulean basin]

Yeah, but we were talking about games that have had open betas, and you said "Overwatch 2 too" 😛

[tired hare]

I'm not surprised cod didn't do it they wanted that money

[ashen yarrow]

Red dead 2

[swift thistle]

Halo is alright, Cod hasnt been good since bo3 and battlefield has always been good before 2042

[night rapids]

what do you mean? COD always has an open beta

[ashen yarrow]

Highest amount ever spent on a game, and it's a shooter

Also speaking of battlefield, is 1 or 5 better

[hollow halo]

4

[cerulean basin]

Not sure I'd exactly call Red Dead Redemption 2 a shooter.
I mean, you do shoot, but not its main genre I'd say

[swift thistle]

personally i liked 1 more

[idle spear]

BF1

[swift thistle]

its definitely an Action Adventure

[worn shale]

MultiVersus had a fun open beta

[ashen yarrow]

It's the central form of combat

[cerulean basin]

But it's not the main thing you do

Mind you, I haven't played RDR2, so I may be wrong, but that's the impression I get from what I've seen/heard so far

[ashen yarrow]

The main thing is exploring

But the majority of the missions require the use of a gun for something

[cerulean basin]

Which is why action/adventure fits better as a description

[idle spear]

RDR2 is GTA formula just different setting

[unique wasp]

yeah you ride your horse talking to other characters mostly

[cinder veldt]

I just did the impossible, synced my controller to another console without turning the original one on

[ashen yarrow]

Still the largest budget game every produced

[cinder escarp]

Hi

[queen stump]

I wouldn't class RDR2 as a shooter.

[ashen yarrow]

Estimated half a billion dollars

[brazen adder]

When someone says a shooter. They think of something totally different then GTA or RDR2. Just calling rdr2 a shooter is a disservice it's way more then that. Shooter is just too general but know industry wise they would classify rdr2 as something different.

[unique wasp]

im surprised rdr 2 didnt do the rpg element with talent trees and such like all games have nowadays

even splatoon 3 has a talent tree

[cerulean basin]

If you count marketing, yes

[ashen yarrow]

Splatoon 3 is overrated

[unique wasp]

I think it is rated

[idle spear]

They had some nods to San Andreas in terms of the hair growing over time and gaining and losing weight

[abstract granite]

whats the name of the rdr2 font?

[ashen yarrow]

It's more of a copy of it's predecessors than cod is

[stuck nest]

Hola necesito ayuda cuál es una muy buena escusa para que mis padres me compren el series s

[queen stump]

Rockstar have almost always been sticking to their roots with their games. It's one of the reasons why it's still such an appreciated studio.

[swift thistle]

gothic toronto

[cerulean basin]

Star Citizen technically takes that crown 😛
Then Cyberpunk 2077.

[unique wasp]

I like that. But you couldnt get fat right? My Arthur Morgan was mostly skinny with a long beard

[ashen yarrow]

I struggle to see the difference between Splatoon 1 and 3

[queen stump]

Star Citizen still needs to release to count.

[weary solar]

#rules 🔤 2. Use English only. Communicate in English, but be considerate of all languages.

[swift thistle]

you can its just super difficult

[stuck nest]

Yo no speak en english

[cerulean basin]

They have different campaigns to begin with?

[unique wasp]

I struggle to see the difference between the last Call of Duty games, it doesnt make them bad though

[swift thistle]

Star Citizen
i wonder when the devs will finally take the money and leave

[unique wasp]

every sequel cant reinvent the wheel

[idle spear]

I think people who are into splatoon would notice the differences same with cod

[severe lodge]

It is a horse riding simulator with some shooting side games

[ashen yarrow]

Wait, people play Splatoon for the campaign? News to me. Can't imagine a shooter with paint blob bullets and people who turn into squids having much of a campaign, and I doubt it's good

[cerulean basin]

It's actually a pretty fun campaign, with some quite unique boss fights

[unique wasp]

it is fun, lots of short 3d platforming levels

[ashen yarrow]

My friend beat the campaign in a day

[vocal gorge]

technically it is released just the devs etc have named it in an alpha or beta state which for a game of it's size and ambition is no surprise

[halcyon stratus]

Splatoon 3 made a whole big deal out of the campaign mode so yea

[halcyon stratus]

Time and fun aren’t directly related so

[ashen yarrow]

If I were to have a switch I would be more interested in the multiplayer

[unique wasp]

the campaign is not very long and can be beaten faster since you can skip a bunch of the levels

[cerulean basin]

I mean, in how many games do you get to fight a giant ninja octopus riding a super tiny unicycle? 😂

[unique wasp]

but yeah the main focus is the multiplayer which people spend hundreds of hours with

[ashen yarrow]

That just looks stupid and nonsensical

[cerulean basin]

And that's part of what makes it so much fun 🙂

[halcyon stratus]

I’m not sure if you mean that as a complaint or a compliment ?

[cerulean basin]

The levels are some of the most creative platforming challenges I've seen from Nintendo in quite a while, really pulling the strength of its squid mechanics

[grand raptor]

can u pre-order mw 2? on xbox

[ashen yarrow]

Maybe, I just didn't enjoy Splatoon 1 on my Wii U at all

[halcyon stratus]

A game based on squid people that can move through paintballs is not grounded in heavy serious reality from the start lol

[ashen yarrow]

Extremely slow and clunky

[queen stump]

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say you also find disinterest in Fall Guys.

[tacit robin]

yep for ages now

[ashen yarrow]

Fall guys is fun

[cerulean basin]

I had a lot of fun with Splatoon 1 and 2, but never got to play the expansion for 2, and I don't feel in any rush to get 3 right now. But those fun moments still stick with me.

[ashen yarrow]

I bought fall guys in early 2021

[vocal gorge]

I've never played splatoon. Looks a ton of fun though

[cerulean basin]

Basically shows a neat, creative way of doing a very different type of shooter that doesn't focus on killing

[rigid gorge]

hey so I need to keep flight stimulator open to download the whole game

can I pause it and switch off the pc? cant do 100gb in one go

[merry palm]

?

[ashen yarrow]

Maybe I'm just biased against it because there is someone that sits next to me in 2 of my classes that just won't shut up about the game and is constantly humming the intro music

It gets annoying quick

[cerulean basin]

Definitely not gonna keep downloading if you switch off the PC...
But you can leave it on, no need to leave the game open? Just make sure the Xbox app stays open downloading.

[unique wasp]

I am having fun with Splatoon 3 but sure it is fair criticism to say that it doesn't do much new, mainly more of the same. But I am fine with that, I like the franchise and the base gameplay

[ashen yarrow]

They are talking about the download after the download

[cinder veldt]

Yeah it has to have the game open

[rigid gorge]

xbox app? it was only 1Gb there and now it shows 120GB as ingame updates cant send ss open

[swift thistle]

i sometimes forget Cyprus has more cats then humans

[cerulean basin]

Did they fix their online systems yet? Or is it still unnecessarily complicated to play a standard online game with friends?

[ashen yarrow]

They are asking if their download progress will save

[rigid gorge]

oh can I pause and switch off and continue later?

[cinder veldt]

Oh right that I think I had to restart but that was on release, might be fixed now

[rigid gorge]

so 120GB in one sitting damn

[cinder veldt]

I'm not sure, I could have done something wrong too

[ashen yarrow]

At least you probably have internet that's faster than 500 kilobytes per second

[vocal gorge]

wait, flight sim requires updating while in game? oh my... I was just going to suggest leaving the PC on overnight to hopefully complete the update as the PC will surely detect it as a 3D application and not turn off the monitor or go into sleep or hibernation modes after X minutes but that may be a bad idea when complete if the game then decides to push hardware like it is being played

[violet oracle]

still so many series x glitches

[tired hare]

Seagulls singing is just brilliant

[rigid gorge]

ya I can do it but its night so cant leave all night need to start tomorrow morning

[ashen yarrow]

It's really weird

[cerulean basin]

What kind of glitches? I've seen some games crash here and there, but it's usually an issue with the game itself, rather than the console.

[tired hare]

It is like sign of the sea

[long maple]

Yeah was gonna say the same thing, Anchel

[violet oracle]

i feel bad for xbox one players, noise supression for series S and X are the best thing ever created on xbox

[rigid gorge]

also its draining battery f

[cinder veldt]

Yeah it has that, maybe it's just one time download but as said it was long ago, not the best memory

[cinder veldt]

Noise suppression? When what how?

[long maple]

new update, we had noise suppression but this one while in party chat apparently takes away breathing, controller clicking and even music

[merry palm]

Ig try it and let us know? Now I am curious lol
Not something I knew about flight sim..

[tired hare]

i've decided to get rid of my iphone.

[long maple]

you know the 3 most annoying things people in party chat love doing. or even eating lol

[tired hare]

apple doesn't give a crap still about ringtones playing at max volume through airpods/headhones, and it's even worse in ios 16

[cinder veldt]

I know we had it before but this new one, wow no breathing would be great. Music and buttons I never had issues with

[trail harness]

I've seen that on every console ever at least a few times. Sounds normal to me.

[cerulean basin]

The noise suppression so far is only for Xbox party chat, right? Not available on Discord VC. Or at least I didn't notice the toggle.

[tired hare]

the reduce loud sounds used to help, at the cost of muffling music, but now it doesn't affect the ringtones.

[long maple]

music was the worst cause or kids screaming in the background, hence why I muted everyone lol

[vocal gorge]

😱 I'll be getting my first iphone from this Friday (hopefully). Got an iPhone 14 Pro on pre order. Quite excited about giving something other than Android a go tbh

[merry palm]

Yeah I didn't think it was for the discord thing?

[neat pagoda]

really?

[cerulean basin]

Oh nice, Sub-Zero!
I'm pretty keen on what Apple has done with the camera and that not-a-notch hole 😛

[tired hare]

Did you get the bath bombs

[merry palm]

I did yes

And some other stuff

[cinder veldt]

Didn't someone sue or something over that but for amber alerts

You'll like the smoothness of iOS I'd bet but if you have certain apps that aren't allowed on iOS such as non-webkit browsers, you might miss them.

[tired hare]

[quasi tulip]

Noise suppression kills my mic

[cerulean basin]

To be fair, most people won't ever notice a difference between browsers on Android other than their UI and extra features, seeing how most use webkit these days anyways

[quasi tulip]

It sounds horrible with it on

[trail harness]

I use Firefox. I'd definitely notice.

[merry palm]

Got a couple new barrettes, a coloring book and a few household supplies

[cerulean basin]

I did say most, not everyone 😛 Firefox mobile users are a much much much smaller percentage of users

[tired hare]

The colouring book sounds very relaxing

[merry palm]

Sesame Street Halloween 😆

[quasi tulip]

If anyone hasn’t watched big time adolescence I recommend it

[trail harness]

The good news though is that Apple after a number of years eventually allowed stuff like Python onto iOS and ad blockers

[tired hare]

Elmo as Jason 🤣

[quasi tulip]

It’s like the only movie I liked Pete Davidson in besides king of Staten Island but he nailed his role in this movie

[cerulean basin]

Firefox has 2.79% marketshare on all platforms at the moment.
On mobile though? Just 0.5%

[vocal gorge]

I'm just a little worried I won't like it but I can be like this getting something new. All sorts of thoughts rush into my head about a new device. This one especially since it isn't Android or Samsung. Going way out of my comfort zone with this one. Just hope I don't go on to regret it as I could have had an S22 Ultra for the past 5 or 6 months

[hollow halo]

Is it really that bad? I don’t have AirPods cuz my ears are too small for them but I know they don’t with the ringtones.

[merry palm]

Should be a hit with the kids

😆

[tired hare]

Hopefully u enjoy it

[merry palm]

It's for work, but I'll have to color some too haha

[tired hare]

Exactly no harm in it

[hollow halo]

Shooot I’d be happy with that too

[tired hare]

Same

[merry palm]

The dollar store has the best selection of coloring books anywhere.

Adult and kids ones.

And by adult I mean the more intricate ones.. not adult themed

[hollow halo]

Not my dollar store. I have to go to target for the adult ones

[cerulean basin]

Alright, gonna head off. Had a tiring day of tons of planning and I gotta create a ton of tasks in JIRA tomorrow >_>

Good night!

[merry palm]

I'm lucky to be within 15 minutes of 4 different ones 😆
So I have favorites

[tired hare]

Good luck and goodnight

[merry palm]

My target only ever has a few coloring books, it's pretty sad pickings

[tired hare]

Tbh colouring books having really help me relax in life

[merry palm]

I have my own coloring books yeah. But they aren't typically sesame street ones haha

[tired hare]

I don't even have target I have Tesco 🤣

[hollow halo]

I have 2 currently and they’ve lasted me a bit and I’m not even half way done with them so target is fine by me!

[merry palm]

Nothing wrong with it.. but it's not my preference

We go through a lot of them here. Dollar store saves me and my wallet lol

Forza Monthly was today, apparently Motorsport wont be starting polish phase till sometime in the new year, according to Dan Greenawalt its gonna take " a long time "

[hollow halo]

“Polish phase”?

[long maple]

[merry palm]

[lyric trench]

[dark raptor]

Po djsjwj

Damn polish stage?

Man fm8 on new year? Frig. It’s aight tho because it’s probbaly gonna be on gamepass

[hollow halo]

Ooo fancy. I see why that’s gonna take forever. I’m sure they’ll roll out some of it every few weeks or month to month but will be saving big parts for when they do “start”

[dark raptor]

Yea

[brazen adder]

If your sick but work from home, do you still have to work?🧐

[halcyon stratus]

If you are truly sick you should take a sick day

[hollow halo]

I definitely would tbh. Money is money

[halcyon stratus]

If you have a sniffly nose and don’t want to get coworkers in n office sick but you feel fine, then you should just work

“Be reasonable”

[granite verge]

I'm real bad and will keep working until people shout at me to go to bed

[merry palm]

i mean

thats nt very nice

[rain widget]

Is something wrong with xbox like lag or sm?

[merry palm]

if you have a 'small' illness.. stay home.

[hollow halo]

They said if you’re sick but work from home.

[merry palm]

you cant tell if that one day is gonna get worse or if your coworker is immunocompromised.

oh

mmm

i'm a fan of 'rest is best' when sick

[granite verge]

I'm also full time work from home :)

[unique wasp]

still? Covid is over

[cinder veldt]

Not really

[brazen adder]

Should be fine. Unless you you seen an official comment or go check there whatever you call it. The site that shows if there's any problem with the network.

[dim spindle]

Man if I worked from home I wouldn't work even if I was 100%💀

[scarlet river]

No. No it's not.

[merry palm]

covid is very not over

[halcyon stratus]

Sure but the definition of “sick” is very variable

[granite verge]

It's really not lol

[brazen adder]

I have it right now 🤡

[unique wasp]

well my workplace thinks so. We are all back as per usual

[lyric trench]

I'm have Ps4

[merry palm]

i think it should be up to the worker with minimal pressure from coworkers or bosses

[queen stump]

I still work from home. Covid is very much still an issue.

[scarlet river]

I do too.

[cinder veldt]

That's just removing restrictions, it still exists

[halcyon stratus]

I am not convinced you’re actually beluga then lmao

[lyric trench]

But i'm use xbox

[brazen adder]

He came in here to drop that comment like it had the same impact of Thanos snap.

[unique wasp]

but restrictions were removed because we are all vaccinated and safe

[merry palm]

If i rest when sick in the early stages it lasts way shorter than if i don't

[halcyon stratus]

That’s not the quite right

[cinder veldt]

Meanwhile covid cases are rising

[brazen adder]

I'm not vaccinated and I felt bad for 1 day and all symptoms went away the next day.

[scarlet river]

Covid 👏 is 👏 not 👏 over

[halcyon stratus]

I’m going to suggest we move on right now

[brazen adder]

The next day being today

[unique wasp]

I havent taken the third shot yet

[dim spindle]

Covids gonna end then monkeypox outbreak begins

[merry palm]

yeah lets. bc i have had friends die and i dont really want to talk about this right now.

[scarlet river]

Tact, how about that local sports team?

[unique wasp]

[gray latch]

[brazen adder]

Hot beans and corn bread

[analog wagon]

Do y’all use cents as well or is that just a American thing?

[brazen adder]

They use fractions

[halcyon stratus]

Yea I tell you what, we got precooked black beans for 50 pence a tin over here. That plus some bulk rice can fill@you the heck up

[unique wasp]

we got the euro cents

[analog wagon]

I don't have an xbox tag inside a voice room
I do not have a Discord tag inside anywhere in XBOX and it has happened to the latest version

[brazen adder]

They call em euro cent to not get confused with the mother land Americas cent

[hollow halo]

Bruh. I was expecting them to call them “pebblets” or something

[halcyon stratus]

They wouldn’t call coins pebblets, lmao

They already use that word for the little nubby things on the bottom of their shoes!

Bruh have one expxloiter on me game

[gray latch]

report and block

[maiden cairn]

What game should I get next? I love Warzone, red dead redemption story mode, and Fortnite, and don’t like halo infinite because of needing to dump a full mag to kill someone, and the story mode is bad. I don’t like racing games because I don’t like the controller controls

[limber carbon]

Horse Racing 2016

[tired hare]

If you have to dump a full mag to kill someone your aim is bad.

[maiden cairn]

Maybe

[limber carbon]

Hearing amplifications have been added to FH5 in the coming update to foster inclusivity.

[maiden cairn]

I only tried it on controller not mouse and keyboard

[tired hare]

I’d recommend giving the game a try with some people after playing the training mode

[maiden cairn]

No

I’m only on late chapter 2 on rdr2

[tired hare]

Are u a casual or competitive gamer?

[maiden cairn]

Is it still good to play 1?

[tired hare]

Yeah. I’d highly recommend it after beating 2

[velvet girder]

You should play 1 after 2

[maiden cairn]

Idk really. I use mouse and keyboard mainly and play a couple hours every day after school

I’m more like casual

[inner arrow]

Sony Showcase and Nintendo Direct on the same day oof

[tired hare]

So more into story driven games?

My horse got so big bruu...🤭

[maiden cairn]

[dreamy oasis]

Metal gear rising

[lime sequoia]

i dont skate either but i still find the game fun

[maiden cairn]

I have that I’ve looked through it a few times and nothing really caught my eye

[maiden cairn]

Ok. I’m not saying it’s a bad game just im looking for more of an action game

[halcyon stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/skate-bird-skatebird-cute-gif-18583464

[dreamy oasis]

Mgr is pretty action and fun

[halcyon stratus]

So sure skate is good.

[maiden cairn]

It’s from 2013 and I can’t play some m games but most I can. GTA is one of the ones I can’t

[tired hare]

[tired hare]

[tired hare]

It is, he's trolling
