[sage ice]

[tired hare]

[short mantle]

[long maple]

I know couple of youtubers got invited to play the game early and got sent review copies.. doesnt sway me either way have been waiting ages on a new Motorsport

wondering if the design editor thing will look the same as before or not. they havent really talked about that

[short mantle]

Yeah, I’ve played them all. I wasn’t going to miss out on this one.

[red wedge]

Lmao I did too

[foggy skiff]

WWE really stacking next week's NXT lmao

[night rapids]

I didn't get to see it this week, it was pulled so 6 channels could all show the same MLB game

[uncut kite]

Is it normal for my skin to turn red after rubbing bleach where a food coloring stain on my hand was

[gray latch]

dont bleach your skin

[foggy skiff]

didn't miss much, Dom is once again the North American champ

[short mantle]

I hate the fact Trick lost. He was the NA champion for like 5 days lol

[uncut kite]

It was the Clorox wipes

[lunar tartan]

I’m so happy that Fortnite added the tactical DMR I don’t usually use them but it’s got a zoom on it

[night rapids]

things you thought you'd never have to say in a discord server

[foggy skiff]

Cena, Cody, Heyman and Asuka are all scheduled to be on NXT next week

[gray latch]

lol

[short mantle]

Will Cena be there though? We can never see him

[uncut kite]

Is it normal for my skin to turn red after using the Clorox wipes on the food coloring

[gray latch]

I'd never do such a thing so I have no idea

[foggy skiff]

most likely they will pull the usual trick of a shirt and shorts hanging from a string attached to the roof

[night rapids]

it's still bleach, so yes

[short mantle]

Silly WWE

[sage ice]

Yes, your skin is irritated, you should actually call your Doctor or go to urgent care

[uncut kite]

Will my skin go back to normal

[short mantle]

btw check y’alls game pass perks. Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie is one of the free perks.

[dark sparrow]

👀

[uncut kite]

It was Clorox wipes I used

[sage ice]

Yes, your skin is irritated, you should actually call your Doctor or go to urgent care

[dark sparrow]

I'ma go claim that real quick

[thin nimbus]

Don't use them on your skin

[uncut kite]

I only used it on spot on my hand to get dye off

[sage ice]

that doesnt matter..... They are not to be used on skin

[short mantle]

Ah

[lunar tartan]

The Walmart Kylie and I went to a few days ago had a whole fidget toy section. It was fun

[sage ice]

I need to go to WalMart to get some Lucky Duck Wine

[warm trellis]

That sounds like fun

Is it also $4 or is that the fancy more than $4 stuff

[sage ice]

2.99 or 3.99 depending

[warm trellis]

There's a different brand that my local one carries

Same $4 garbage, but it's effective

[night rapids]

you must have different perks than me, I don't have that one 😦

[sage ice]

it was for the movie "Texas Chainsaw" here for me

[night rapids]

yeah, that's what he said, the movie. I don't have that on my perks

[tired hare]

I’m enjoying Lamplighters League. Real time combat mixed with turn based

[sage ice]

Texas Chainsaw is actually a different movie than Texas Chainsaw Massacre

[short mantle]

Oh, sorry about that, Ophelia. I figured everyone got the same perks.

[sage ice]

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1572315/

[night rapids]

oh. I don't have any movies in my perks either way

I don't think I've ever seen movies in my perks, so maybe a regional thing

[sage ice]

we have had a few in the US

[red wedge]

I found a wine brand called purple toad.It's delicious. I think like 7-8$ a bottle

[mellow roost]

I feel very frustrated for you, Ophelia. It seems like a lot of promotions these last few weeks have skipped Canada. :/

[random needle]

After my crunchyroll subscription runs out this week, I'm definitely using the perk on gamepass for a free 70 day crunchyroll subscription
Been subscribed to them since like 2016, I gave them so much money lmaooo

[sage ledge]

why they have report in game voice chat whats their policys in xbox one.

[night rapids]

the policy is the same across all of xbox. If you're breaking the community standards you run the risk of being reported

[sage ledge]

what example of in game voice chat like swearing?

[mellow roost]

No profanity, no being hateful. Same as it's been since the beginning, and now people finally have the ability to report it directly from Xbox, which is awesome.

[sage ledge]

its basicaly no sweairng policy xbox live voice chat

[tired hare]

It’s like American Idol you submit an audio/clip of you singing than they view it and see if you get a free trip to the Gulag.
/sarcasm

It means No Swearing, No Hurting other people’s feelings/ No being hateful.

[sage ledge]

example in gta online you walking and geting on deluxo on some one put c4 and destroy while mid air you say "wtf" and while in a party with some one and report and send to xbox gulag

[inner arrow]

‘Xbox gulag’ lol

[tired hare]

I swear people forget users on Xbox are human lol

[tired hare]

Yes, It should be called that!

[red ginkgo]

Is it possible to get a 2tb Xbox X?

Or is 1tb the usual

[tired hare]

Yes, People can imagine of having a 2tb.
(Joking)
But if you want to expand your storage, You’d need a seagate expansion

[short mantle]

I swear too, but I’m also only in parties with friends, not randoms.

[red ginkgo]

I usually in calls with friends when we play together

The Seagate 2tb sounds great honestly

[balmy plaza]

I don’t have friends nor randoms 😆 I just play games by myself :))

[sage ledge]

[tired hare]

[tired hare]

It,s the external hard drive right?

[red ginkgo]

Yes

[weary flume]

In other console news, Nintendo just announced online play will end for all 3DS and Wii U titles early next April.
I had lots of memories for them…

[tired hare]

R.I.P

Another legendary console got down😔

[balmy plaza]

I never used wii u but had one

[tired hare]

Wht?😂

[balmy plaza]

Yep

It just gathered dust so we put it in storage

[tired hare]

Ohh I see

[balmy plaza]

3Ds though was great

[tired hare]

Yeah nintendo back then was really awesome, I would say!

[tired gulch]

Tbh Instead of paying for Online it should be totally free

[balmy plaza]

Nintendo don’t work like that though :))

[sage ice]

It is on PC

[sage ledge]

xbox one small problem if the game update example minecraft on xbox one you dont update it label warning will xbox game pass ultimate expire some game have sane warning icon why not crossed out xbox gamepass ultimate icon this will confused if they owned..

[tired gulch]

Would be great if on console

[thin nimbus]

For anyone who has a samsung phone Why did samsung gave us the ultimate data back up including our keyboard settings and photos for 30 days before we factory reset the device or for something else but they took that option away from the regular phone backups?

[tired hare]

Any gaming platform except pc won't ever give you free premium online play because they earn a lot from it

[sage ice]

then the consoles would be 1k to $1500 to buy

[tired gulch]

True

[sage ice]

gaming is a luxury, not a right. You need to pay to play

[tired hare]

Sad but true 😦

[sage ice]

it isnt sad though

[thin nimbus]

Free to play games you don't have to play to play online

[tired hare]

Yes

[halcyon stratus]

If you don’t have a license to a game either by owning it or through Gamepass then there will be a warning icon on it.

And if you have the game by purchasing a physical disc there will be a warning on the icon if the disc isn’t in the drive

[sage ice]

[tired hare]

Bye guys I will hangout sometime later, I hope you all have a great day, bye!!

[winter forum]

Think I've got a day of automation triage and fixes and report writing

[limpid flicker]

Hmmmm, I've been fixing a computer that wasn't right, and then going through the tedious process of installing all the dev tools on a brand new HDD.
That was 'fun' -- also I've been belatedly doing something really (really) should have done years ago, which is 'learn more PowerScript'. It's easy enough though, works like any other language.

Other than that, nothing exciting in terms of work-related activities. I've also been playing FF7 Crisis Core which I put down for a while.

Learning PowerScript is just 'cause I want to automate a very tedious task. I think I already spent longer trying to automate it than I would have just doing it, but honestly it was a glaring gap in my skill set.

[cinder veldt]

Oh love computers not being right /s

[limpid flicker]

It was doing a thing where a lot of the time you'd plug in a USB device and it would be like "Nu-uh! There aren't any drivers." despite the fact that this (USB storage, for example) shouldn't need any bloody drivers.

[cinder veldt]

My main PC needs some fix up, because it always thinks I have an SD card adapter in (one that didn’t work for that matter)

[ocean shore]

So silly

[limpid flicker]

So I figured "We reinstall the OS" - but I also decided "first we upgrade the SSD size, so copy all the local files to NAS and replace."

It's the machine my partner uses for her work most days - since it was my 'smart idea' to 'fix it' that meant it become my responsibity to get the job done while she used my PC. GG Sol.

Her plan was just "keep working around the problems awkwardly because it's easier and doesn't interrupt things."

[cinder veldt]

I honestly probably need a reinstall, but it’s annoying process overall

[limpid flicker]

Precisely Angie's reason for not doing one getting me to do one.

[cinder veldt]

I just have data to back up, then reinstall but after that is the fun part fixing all dependencies and programs to work (the ones on my other drives) or reinstall

[limpid flicker]

The hard part is absolutely re-establishing your previous environment with all your nice tools.

[cinder veldt]

Yep, and I’m not doing that unless something is big wrong, I can take a notification every time the PC starts, that’s fine

[limpid flicker]

Something big wrong? How about: Sometimes after rebooting or sleeping the PC doesn't recognise the mouse and you have to screw around unplugging it and plugging it back in again?

[cinder veldt]

My old keyboard did that

Annoying because it lit up, but pressing any key just made the leds blink

[limpid flicker]

It seems to have gone away after a reinstall so.

[cinder veldt]

For me I’m kinda thinking the keyboard was the issue because only that keyboard had it

But I don’t look forward to fixing my linux server today 😛

[limpid flicker]

Oh I think here it must have been some kinda goof-up in the registry or other, it was affecting any USB device. There was like a 60% chance of any device not being properly recognised.
That seems better now.

[cinder veldt]

Not saying your case was the same 😉

[limber gate]

[spare sinew]

What charger do the 2013 Xbox one controllers take again, I forgot

Can anyone help me with something I need help with editing a video it should be easy

I know you agree to this when you use apps and services but why do companies need to know this much?

Use of the Services.

[balmy plaza]

Woah lotta words

[winter forum]

If that's on a phone, Google's application analysis suite is one of the best secret sauce out there. But Xbox has similar telemetry. It's generally used to inform decisions of how devices and software are used though, to improve the next version of devices and releases

[winter forum]

When you say power script do you mean Powershell?

[limpid flicker]

Oh. Yes, whoops.

[thin nimbus]

It's from a from a company from a story game that you basically pick what happens In it that I have on my phone it's Called choices

[winter forum]

I've written lots of automation stuff in PS, I think it's a great tool to get it done. You can access word and Excel documents with it too, it's so good!

[inner arrow]

PS is great yes. But overreliance on it can lead to issues

[winter forum]

Needing GPS in a game like that seems a bit over the top tbh, but you can granularly block permissions if you want to

[inner arrow]

Especially if the code is done to not go with everything or doesnt require user input.

[winter forum]

Oh 100%. I'm like the only person in the org that knows how some of the stuff works. If it goes down and I'm on leave, it never gets fixed

[inner arrow]

Just a lot of stuff to take care of. Coworker wrote a ps script that just takes a single excel from a single filepath and if it’s not that exact name at that exact location the ps script doesn’t work. So people complained after someone renamed the excel

[thin nimbus]

I don't think they actually use it for that game in particular as there is no permissions setting for that game

[winter forum]

Isn't that a case of "I'm building this to fix a 'me' problem" that then gets shared and people whinge "it's not perfect!"
Like naaah, "good enough" was the bar and it fulfilled that.

[inner arrow]

It’s basically what happens all the time at this company

[winter forum]

But that's the beauty of scripting, you fix it yourself :/

But my go-to is generally pyhton then if there's some windows-y edge case it can't do, then it's PS. Or if python ain't on the box I'm on, PS will usually get you out a jam

[thin nimbus]

I think it's just the company in general as a whole company I think they do other things

[limpid flicker]

I can do Python, but NGL semantic whitespace still seems wrong.

[thin nimbus]

Yeah they make other games

[winter forum]

Question is are you team tab or team spaces? 😉

[limpid flicker]

Tabs4Lyfe

[winter forum]

I love pyscripter but it can just ... the bed at times if the remote python dies. End up having to restart the IDE. Also noticed some loops don't respond to keyboard interrupts. But considering it's free, I can't complain too much

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-hereford-worcester-66997510.amp

It's the bit at the end which is the most strange. breaks into coworkers house to steal a hairbrush
Like I think this guy might be a few spoons short of a full cutlery set

And what's his motive for contaminating it to start with? Did he just really really hate Nandos? Maybe he thought he was being the cheeky one? Just bizarre

[cinder veldt]

Ah well that sucks, and from this wording rip redownloading too? https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1709418623566020975?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet

Ah excellent. A digital service where if your console goes caput, you can't get what you paid for if you replace the console. What a time to be alive!

[cinder veldt]

Okay apparently that will work for the foreseeable future

[tired hare]

what is the sence of they/them when we are talking to only one person and what is ze/hir? I don't get it somehow (no offence to anyone I just don't have this knowledge that's why I asked)

[fiery python]

So that's Pokémon Bank also going too, meaning anyone using older generation Pokémon games can no longer transfer to newer gen.

[fiery python]

https://www.mypronouns.org/ze-hir

[cinder veldt]

Actually that will also be up

[tired hare]

just asking not using anti LGBTQ+ but are these pronouns related to LGBTQ+? (no offence to any gender, just asking in general)

[cinder veldt]

It's related to English

[fiery python]

Pronouns aren't necessarily related to a persons sexuality.

Someone who is straight may use alternate pronouns.

[tired hare]

ohh I get it btw thanks for the explanation!

[fiery python]

People have quite likely used 'they/them' about you in your life, just as they have for me and I've used about others.

Where did that guy go?

Oh, they went over there.

[tired hare]

why to use they/them for only 1 person?

[fiery python]

Because you can.

[tired hare]

i didn't mean that but nvm!

[fiery python]

No, that answers your question. You can do that, it's still grammatically correct and very commonly used.

[tired hare]

ohh ok I get it now!

[fiery python]

People these days seem to think pronouns are a new thing but they're not and people use them in every day conversation without realising.

[tired hare]

yeah you r right!!

[cinder veldt]

They be quite old actually

[tired hare]

you prefer both, she/her and
they/them so what do I talk to you with?

[fiery python]

People use 'they' about a single person all the time.

But as soon as someone asks to be referred to using they/them pronouns people freak out.

[cinder veldt]

Use whichever of those

[mystic owl]

Xbox mad mid

[fiery python]

k

[cinder veldt]

Nah I'm mad when my team peaks mid and gets sniped

[tired hare]

I am telling with my my personal experience and I haven't heard a single person calling out someone with they/them and ze/hir (ze/hir is surprisingly way new to me)

Will my installed Game Pass games be deleted when Game Pass ends?

[fiery python]

You likely haven't heard ze/hir used, but I guarantee someone will have used 'they' in conversation and you just didn't realise because it's a standard part of conversation.

[fiery python]

They won't be deleted, but you can't play the games unless you buy them.

[tired hare]

Will I have to install them from scratch?

[tired hare]

no they will be installed and available in your library but you can't play them unless you don't renew your subscription

[fiery python]

No, because the games aren't deleted, as I just said.

It's says "102 hours" 💀💀💀

[cinder veldt]

1MB/s be close to my speeds /hj

[tired hare]

I have completed all xbox ambassador quests but I now I am stucked with somewhere around 6000XP, so basically my question is that, how do I get more quests to level myself up?!

How to speed up downoland

@cinder veldt @tired hare 💀

[cinder veldt]

Huh?

[tired hare]

*downoland? lmaoooo😂😂

wait nooo 💀💀💀💀

I want it to be faster 😭

bro 1mbps speed is just too slow
if you have a console and want to play/download games😂💀

I have 500kb and others have 50mb/s 💀💀💀💀

No need to tag me

[tired hare]

[tired hare]

ohh sorry I forgot

[fiery python]

A row of emojis is hardly an emergency situation that requires a mods attention.

[tired hare]

I have series s

[fiery python]

What is the actual speed of your internet plan?

[tired hare]

that's why I have no other option than to download XD

[tired hare]

I tagged you because yesterday I was guiding a new member who was breaking the rules so, one of the mod told me that let the mods handle the moderation that,s why I tagged you to take action on him.

[tired hare]

Idk

[fiery python]

Yes, let mods handle it. That doesn't mean tag us, especially for something so unimportant.

For serious situations you send a DM to Modmail to report it. You don't tattle in General and tag mods there.

[tired hare]

so if any mod is not online and someone is breaking the rules then can normal members guide him?

I have such a weak internet connection that I can't play in the cloud because my screen is blocked

[fiery python]

Within reason, but if it someone is breaking rules it's best to not engage and DM modmail. There are people who have been here a lot longer who know the rules better to help.

[tired hare]

it's either black or you can't see anything

[tired hare]

Roger that!

[fiery python]

Well yes, if your downloads are 1mb/s, cloud is useless to you.

[tired hare]

can you buy wifi? shut up and take my money

[fiery python]

You ask your internet provider to upgrade your plan.

[tired hare]

I'll give you $50 if you buy it for me

[fiery python]

You’ll give that to your provider. Every month.

[tired hare]

12 kB/s 💀💀💀💀

[tired hare]

you are saying this because you know that afterwards he can fight back that one member who guided him and normal members can't mute/timeout and ban him in that situation and then fight will begin, right?

[fiery python]

Yes, we get it Piotrek. Your internet speed is bad. We don’t need repeated progress updates.

[tired hare]

32 days to download💀💀💀

[fiery python]

I’m saying that because it’s not your job to handle it and often it can cause escalation. Just let mods handle things.

@tired hare enough.

[tired hare]

I have to wait a month for the downloadm?!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tired hare]

exactly I got bored of his repetitive messeges too lol

[fiery python]

@tired hare Stop now. We don’t want updates on this. We get it, the speed sucks.

[tired hare]

ok bro I understood btw thanks for the guidance!

ok, I'm buying an xbox 360

does anybody play rdr2 here?

[red wedge]

Wow I seriously wasnt expecting this level of customization in darktide. I thought it was just going be a pick a character and job and go type game. But you get hair styles faces and tatooes and scars

[fiery python]

I forgot that was out

I didn't see it in the store this morning.

[tired hare]

IMO I don't get players applying scars on their created characters and ruining their face lol
I personally never add scars to my character,s face.

[fiery python]

Some people may want their character to appear as though they had taken part in many battles.

[tired hare]

yep!

[red wedge]

Depends on the character. My guy is a big sweaty beefy orgryn with scars on his face. Hes seen some stuff

[fiery python]

Or people may have scars on their own faces and want something to match how they look. It doesn't mean that the face is ruined.

[tired hare]

a lot of mine friends do the exact same thing in those kind of customisable games haha

[red wedge]

I mean in a game world where your character is in a galaxy full of war and battles. And your in the thick of it I think it makes sense to have a few scars.

It's all just player preference . 🙂

[tired hare]

Yeah that makes some sense though!

[balmy plaza]

I like scars they tell stories

[red wedge]

Indeed

[balmy plaza]

Gives characters definition like they tough and been through it

[tired hare]

yeah works in
heavy armod/war crime games

[red wedge]

My character. Little blurry sorry. But he looks awesome!

[balmy plaza]

He does look pretty cool 😄

[tired hare]

He looks freaking dangerous btw nice customised character I would say!

[obsidian kayak]

Ohhh no.

😦

[red wedge]

Thanks theres not too many options but theres enough for variety., cant wait see what he looks like decked out in gear . Hes like a 14ft behemoth of a man

[tired hare]

ok bye guys let's talk later, take care see'ya!

[red wedge]

Cya. Take care 🙂

[obsidian kayak]

Anyone here seen Paul blart?

[balmy plaza]

Mall cop?

[obsidian kayak]

Yes

[uneven river]

Both

[balmy plaza]

It’s hilarious 😆

[red wedge]

Yea first one was pretty funny. I didn't get into the second one much.

[balmy plaza]

Yeah true I found the bird scene funny though in the second one lol

[red wedge]

Kevin james using the segway scooter was the funniest ever. 😄 movie is very good over all

[balmy plaza]

Hahaha fr 🤣

[fiery python]

Hmm, I need to decide what to play for today before Forza and Mirage are out tomorrow.

[red wedge]

I'm doing witcher 3 death March. But also going be playing some darktide on the side.

Lmao my dude so huge he literally kneels to fit in cutscenes 🤣

[obsidian kayak]

What ones better the 1st or 2nd

[obsidian kayak]

Same question. ^

[balmy plaza]

First one imo 😄

Have you not seen it yet? 👀

[obsidian kayak]

Watched the first one today

First time

[limpid flicker]

Imma just say I've seen some weird Paul Blart memes lately.

[obsidian kayak]

Really?

[limpid flicker]

Oh for sure. Not certain if they're new memes or I'm just seeing them though.

[uneven river]

First

[tired hare]

quick question

how do micro sd cards work for the xbox series s

[fiery python]

They don't.

I forgot to pre-install Forza on my PC. I've got it installed on my Series X, but I'd rather play on PC where I can max everything out. That's a hefty install that's going to take all day.

[idle spear]

I don’t think it would be fast enough for even XB1 games if you used a USB 3.0 adapter

[fiery python]

For XB1 games it should be fine if it's a decent card. I run games from SD card on my Steam Deck and ROG Ally.

[obsidian kayak]

Plus isn’t a sd card faster thin a hard drive. Standard hard drive

[fiery python]

Depends on the card. If the card has slow read/write speeds, then no, an HDD would be faster. But newer cards can be faster.

[obsidian kayak]

Also would depend on that sd card reader you used

[green laurel]

Forza looking solid

[tired hare]

Help, xbox 360 won’t let me sign in because of a sign in error

Now I can’t access neither my accounts

[fiery python]

Contact Support. https://support.xbox.com/contact-us/xboxdiscord

[wraith spire]

morning peeps

[obsidian kayak]

Morning.

[winter forum]

New Forza currently at 84 on Metacritic. Complaints are about missing modes present in earlier games and overly aggressive AI. Although Turn 10 have said new modes are coming and the AI might average itself out or just get fixed overtime as it's still drivertar stuff

[inner arrow]

So a great game as usual

[winter forum]

I'm actually skipping this one. I've played all the mainline ones since 2 and every horizon but I'm kinda bored of the franchise being very very similar. So my plan is to get whichever is the "last" one at the end of the console lifecycle

[fiery python]

Wasn't this another that was planned to be a 10 year ongoing game?

So would make it both the first and last of the console lifecycle.

[obsidian kayak]

Crab for 2023 mob vote

Would be cool to place blocks from farther away

[tired hare]

Why the heck do players love the phantom so much it got voted
Literally the most annoying mob

[obsidian kayak]

The mob vote was rigged that year

Influencers used there power to tell all there followers to vote for phantom

[balmy plaza]

Makes sense lol

[obsidian kayak]

Think dream did it one year to

[winter forum]

Perhaps? I'm also incredibly patient though. Makes not a lot of difference to me

[fiery python]

I have Game Pass, so may as well play it.

If I had to pay for it, I'd wait for a sale as I prefer Horizon over Motorsport.

Although I found the last Horizon to be heading in a disappointing direction and I ended up not being happy with it.

[lunar tartan]

Yeah I’m ready for a new horizon

[dusky vessel]

I saw a christmas jumper yesterday that I think you and @limpid flicker would appreciate. https://www.merchoid.com/uk/teletext-christmas-jumper/

And @long maple

[limpid flicker]

Bamber Boozler!

[winter forum]

It's disgusting.
I love it!

[lunar tartan]

Lol

[winter forum]

I've got like 3-4 nerdy Christmas jumpers though lol

[fiery python]

They have loads - https://www.merchoid.com/uk/geeks-guide-to-ugly-christmas-sweaterjumpers/

[winter forum]

Firefly, BTTF and Star Wars are the 3 I can think of

[fiery python]

As a child of the era, this one is amazing. https://www.merchoid.com/media/mf_webp/jpg/media/catalog/product/cache/65c63282a2b3bd0da0ec5b004bcde549/x/m/xmen-ugly-christmas-sweater-front.webp

[winter forum]

That theme tune to the animated series was amazing

https://youtu.be/sAkL2-vh2Sk?feature=shared

[fiery python]

If I didn't dislike Christmas, or get uncomfortably itchy hot in knitted jumpers, I'd buy that immediately.

Either that or a Jurassic Park or TMNT one.

[winter forum]

You can cheat and get printed hoodies

[fiery python]

Yeah but they look crap

[winter forum]

That's the one I have

[balmy plaza]

Haha nice

[fiery python]

Even regular sweaters/hoodies are too hot after a while for me. I'm still wearing shorts now and feel warm.

[winter forum]

When I need my drive shovelling, I'll know who to call

[balmy plaza]

It never gets cold enough for me here where I live.

[fiery python]

It's early October and apparently 12 degrees out. I'm in shorts and have the fan on. 😄

[winter forum]

I'll here in jeans t-shirt and hoodie

[final coral]

Anyone know what time forza release for early access?
Seems to be weird some say it’s released at midnight local but at like 8 pm in America

[fiery python]

Midnight in your region

Unless you're in US with several time zones.

[final coral]

That sucks but i guess better than when starfield released at 1 am

[fiery python]

[inner arrow]

Forza is my podcast racing game. So I am excited for it. Won’t be spending a dime tho

[fiery python]

Don't discuss marketplace fraud @final coral

[limpid flicker]

Is it just especially warm there, or are you in favour of icy-cold?

[winter forum]

Think Laurie is in Oz, so tropical Christmas?

I went to Mexico once very close to Christmas, was disorientating to say the least

[obsidian kayak]

So Minecraft officially has guns now

Nerf guns

[limpid flicker]

I wish the developers of Outside would nerf guns. So OP.

[tired hare]

Hi sup guys!

[balmy plaza]

Yeah always hot and humid but we get rare cold days in winter but I do love the cold also 😁

[balmy plaza]

Yep! Tropical heat and humid lol

I live right on the coast

[tired hare]

Should I get the premium edition for forza motorsport, I mean are the cosmetics and early acces worth it?

[fiery python]

That's for you to decide.

[limpid flicker]

I prefer it chilly. In the winter we can always bundle up, in the summer... ehh, what can you do?

[fiery python]

I don't know what value you put on cosmetic stuff, extra XP etc or your budget. I also don't know everything that's included in it.

[balmy plaza]

Yeah! More clothes or blanket is alright not really socially acceptable to take off too much haha 😂

[limpid flicker]

Worse yet, if it gets to the point you have nothing to take off, the fan is on and you're still hot... what then?

[tired hare]

I think that you guys could have a bit more knowledge about it more than me that,s why I asked though.

[balmy plaza]

Exactly 😩 good thing we have a decent AC otherwise idk what we would do

[limpid flicker]

Yeah wish we did. These last few years it gets hotter and hotter and some day soon gonna have to think about a way to stay comfortable.

[balmy plaza]

Yeah it really is getting hotter everywhere, I remember the heatwaves and fires in the UK

I hope you manage to stay cool Sol 😅

[limpid flicker]

Right back at ya! 😉

[idle spear]

Yeah houses here are built to insulate heat and I don't know anyone who has AC unless it's a company owned building. But it's getting hotter here now so maybe houses will be designed with AC in future.

[idle spear]

I think a HDD would be more ideal, especially for longevity on the read and writes.

[inner arrow]

Hope y’all have a great wednesday and are enjoying your time here

[cunning turtle]

Question Does it download legacy editon or bedrock?

[fiery python]

Depends what you buy a code for.

@cunning turtle Don't DM me or send friend requests without asking, please

[cunning turtle]

https://www.cdkeynl.nl/koop-minecraft-xbox-one-code-compare-prices/ Will this one?

[fiery python]

Will that one what?

[cunning turtle]

get legacy edition

[fiery python]

That's the original Xbox One version. If that's what you call legacy, then yes.

[tired hare]

It would be fun if they didn’t decide to eliminate Xbox 360 from everything
(Online shop, Minecraft updates, etc.)

[fiery python]

They can't support old platforms forever

[tired hare]

Newer consoles aren’t cheap as well

[fiery python]

Gaming is not a cheap hobby. People need to understand that before they get involved.

[tired hare]

bro is buying rdr2 worth it? or should I wait for the remastered version of it?

[fiery python]

No remastered version has been announced.

[tired hare]

but it sure will come!

[fiery python]

I doubt it.

[tired hare]

GTA Trilogy was a complete disaster

[fiery python]

RDR2 Online doesn't make them enough money to care.

[idle spear]

I don't see the point in waiting for a remaster which might never come

[tired hare]

so should I buy rdr2 (x/s optimised) right now?

[fiery python]

It's not X|S optimised.

[idle spear]

It is One X enhanced but that's it

[tired hare]

wht? really?

[tired hare]

😦

[idle spear]

Series S will just play the One S version

[tired hare]

ohh

[tired hare]

@idle spear what about "just dance 2023"?

[fiery python]

Look it up on the store page.

[idle spear]

The game looks great on the one x enhanced version for RDR2, not really missing much

[tired hare]

no I didn't mean that, I meant, is it worth it?

???

[fiery python]

No one here knows what you enjoy, how much money you have or what you consider worth it.

Do some research and decide for yourself.

[tired hare]

okk

just wanted to have the pov of you guys.

I am literally active for maybe 2 days now and following all the rules but didn't still get the explorer role 😦

[fiery python]

2 days isn't a long time.

[tired hare]

so how time more from now on?

[fiery python]

We don't have a way to know. Depends when the both considers you sufficiently active.

Could be days, could be weeks. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tired hare]

ohh (⁠✷⁠‿⁠✷⁠)

[celest lion]

it still looks amazing so yea

plus its an amazing game, the online kinda sucks tho

[obsidian kayak]

Will forza do the same thing starfield did where they released only the dlc and if you bought to early you got access to the game if have game pass

[fiery python]

Yes

[tired hare]

Let’s hope that GTA VI and GTA IV remaster aren’t as bad as the Trilogy

[fiery python]

You can already buy the premium addon

[tired hare]

How to do a refund of a game after 14 days

[fiery python]

You don't.

[trail harness]

RDR2 on PC is pretty good

[tired hare]

Crab for the win at Mob Vote!

[sterile sequoia]

I played it with alot of mods pretty fun

[tired hare]

If the crabs can do the Crab Rave in Minecraft then it’s worth it

[vocal gorge]

[tired hare]

[trail harness]

hype. Can't wait

[tired hare]

Finally

[vocal gorge]

same, staying up late once again to play some of it. Looking forward to see how it runs on my PC and somewhere in there I might also have AC Mirage installing and ready for tomorrow 😄 Looking forward to that too

[winter forum]

I'm going to assume talking about this...problem...with "XL Bully" dogs that has been in the news recently is discouraged, Rhinne?

[tired hare]

Opinion on Minecraft Legends so far?

[uneven river]

Good game but doesn't have replayability

[balmy plaza]

I didn’t like it tbh

[fiery python]

Not my type of game so I didn't bother playing.

[uneven river]

The Multiplayer matches are either 5 minutes long or hours long

[tired hare]

Tbh, GTA IV is the most based GTA game, the story and it’s dark backstory, the characters, the stories Niko is telling from his previous life, everything is perfect

[uneven river]

It's good on the 360

[final coral]

Gta 4 doesn’t really need a remaster.
I mean I’d be happy if they make the pc port actually work instead of having to install a bunch of community patches to make it play able

[tired hare]

It’ll be a shame if the remaster will be as bad as the Trilogy

[final coral]

There’s so many broken visual and gameplay bugs on pc that are just worst than 360 version

[uneven river]

Xbox one and series x have the same bug at final mission that pc players have

The button mash event is fps based so you have to press the button twice as fast as normal

[final coral]

Is that the one where it don’t let you grab the helicopter?

[uneven river]

Yes

[idle spear]

GTA4 has some issues running at 60 FPS in general and looks pretty blurry on modern displays at 720p. An up res and fixes to 60fps logic issues would be nice for console

[final coral]

As long as they don’t include lost and dammed too

[pallid mason]

[tired hare]

On 360 it’s working fine

[final coral]

That dlc sucked.
Gay tony though is perfection and I always wanted story dlc for gta 5

[uneven river]

I also don't like lost

Most of my time playing gta 4 was in ballad, great dlc

[final coral]

It’s just kind of boring.
It’s just drive A to B on a bike and a gang war that doesn’t feel like a gang war.
Where as gay tony all the missions are unique and fun

[tired hare]

The moment I saw the youtube vids of the Trilogy after the release I thought “Bro, what is this mess”

[idle spear]

One thing I did like about the DLC was the checkpoints instead of having to do the whole thing again if you fail

[final coral]

Oh yeah I forgot about that.
Gta 4 made you play the missions from the start from your phone

[tired hare]

Yes

[idle spear]

Yeah it was really annoying for the longer missions or ones that you could get cheap deaths in

[final coral]

Some of them were pretty bad too

[uneven river]

Only missions that gave me an issue was the old hospital and the final mission. Final mission is 2 so there's technically a checkpoint

I wonder why they recorded 3 or 4 different sets of dialogue per mission?

[final coral]

Old hospital, is that the drug raid one or where you kill the old guy?

[uneven river]

Run into a broken apart building to get something, swat arrives when you kill everyone, you kill them then escape

[tired hare]

You get the drugs I think

[uneven river]

I feel like the game could chop 40+ of the missions and not truly lose any value

[final coral]

Yeah that one was pretty challenging if it caught you by surprised

[final coral]

True.
The most memorable one is three leaf clover or the kidnap grace one or museum shootout

[tired hare]

Kidnap grace is the hardest because you have to keep her alive

[uneven river]

The micro smg is a mission killer, it's the only reason I died throughout my 12 hour run yesterday, besides 1 surprise shotgun enemy 😆

[final coral]

Yeah true everyone wants to drive grace into the sea

[uneven river]

That mission reminded me of tiger escort from saints row 3

[final coral]

The bot didn’t like that, the weird mission

Sr2 will always be the best
1 and 3 are ok both that their faults.
4 was mediocre but honestly super fun to play.
The reboot I’m not going anywhere near even as a saints row fan

Just had the feeling it was gonna flop from the first trailer

[tired hare]

What was the most boring mission in GTA IV (including DLC) in your opinion

[final coral]

There’s a few

Any mission from the lost.
Probably the date with Michelle

[crystal tendon]

idk i never play gta 4

[final coral]

Need to replay the game.
I’m sure one will stick out

[final coral]

Brucie missions are pretty bad

[uneven river]

Alot of them just exist to make the player drive more

[tired hare]

And if you hit a cop car in these missions then it’s over for you because the cops will come for you

[final coral]

Anytime Roman ask you to go bowling

[uneven river]

It's easy to escape the police in gta 4, way too easy imo

The issue is niko runs the same speed as cops so you can't escape them on foot

[tired hare]

I use the wanted level down cheat on the phone

[final coral]

But any harder then your just gonna feel like the games cheating

[uneven river]

They could've added the treadmill from sa back

[final coral]

I’m hoping rockstar drops a gta 6 trailer sometime this month.
October seems like the right month as they done games in the past this time

[uneven river]

The new expected date is like the 28th or something but there's an expected date every month

The hype peaks every 3months when they have an investor call. Been that way for the last 6 years

[tired hare]

I wonder what Rockstar will make at the 20 year anniversary

[final coral]

I think the most likely month is October but they’ll drop it on a random day without any warning

[uneven river]

Gta 5 expanded and enhanced remaster

[final coral]

I’m so sick of gta 5

[tired hare]

At the 10 year anniversary we had the GTA SA, III, CTW, and VC on Mobile

[final coral]

Ctw is soo goood

Great gem of a game that not many have played.
Especially on the original ds

[crystal tendon]

I just got free game pass ultimate

[tired hare]

Wait a minute, free?

[final coral]

That’s it gta 4 is coming out on mobile

[crystal tendon]

yeah

[uneven river]

Mobile could handle gta 4

[final coral]

But not the driving physics

[tired hare]

Or RDR gonna have a remaster

[uneven river]

Not even console can do that

[crystal tendon]

san andreas was on mobile years ago

[final coral]

They already “remasters” it the other week

[uneven river]

They put it on 360 in 2014

[tired hare]

0,51 Mb/s 💀

[tired hare]

It was bad

[final coral]

The problem with SA is the mobile port sucks

[tired hare]

what the duck

[uneven river]

Truly was bathtub

[final coral]

As well as the 360 version but not as much

[tired hare]

So much bugs bruh

[uneven river]

The 360 one is a mobile port, just like the de

Not entirely sure why de looks worse than the last mobile port console got

[final coral]

The best way to play is either pc downgraded to 1.0 patch or emulation

[tired hare]

pls why 😭

[uneven river]

Ps2 or og xbox

[fiery python]

Do not bypass the filter and stop going on about your slow internet.

[tired hare]

GTA SA Remaster is just 🗑️

[final coral]

I do have 2 og Xboxs.
Got them set up as arcade machines

[manic bison]

I only have football manager 23 on my xbox series s and I have 56% used storage

[final coral]

How big is fm23

[manic bison]

Like 5Gb

I have alot of games on que some semi downloaded idk if those count but even if they do it's so Werid

[hollow hawk]

Every game iirc will show it's install size for your device on its MS store listing

[uneven river]

How did you get a 11gb series s

[carmine plank]

should i get a xbox series s or one x?

[fiery python]

Series S

[hollow hawk]

Series S

[carmine plank]

i was thinking of getting one used (bc they are like 110euros)

[manic bison]

It says I have like 159 GB Left but 56% used

Does my progress in game like take alot of space cuz I really can not find ANY explanation

[final coral]

You can have my limited edition one x Scorpio edition that I still need to sell.
I’ll sell it for £250 but the Scorpio edition controller is in pieces as I tried to fix it but I fully broke it instead.
Do we have a deal?

[hollow hawk]

• Runs all Xbox One games that are available digitally
• 60FPS
• the one that isn't obsoleted by the generational leap
  And used Series S systems should be generally alright, make sure to give it a good clean when it arrives

[carmine plank]

i would :D but i dont care about what edition is it and i dont live in the us so it would be cost alot toship it

[final coral]

But seriously get a series s or an x if you can afford it

[weary solar]

#rules 💵 13. No buying, selling, or trading items/codes on the server. Do not ask for codes, handouts, or freebies either.

[manic bison]

Is there something to expand my storage
(less than the 1 tera thingy)

[final coral]

I’m joking it’s worth like $50

[carmine plank]

should i get one used? and if i can test it before buying how can i check if its not perma banned?

[carmine plank]

where i live its like 90euro

[final coral]

Just get a new series s

[carmine plank]

ik but it cost so much

[final coral]

That’s a rip off

[hollow hawk]

Generally you'd have to trust the seller, ask them if the console is banned and hope they don't take advantage of you. Most buying/selling services iirc will let you force a return since you expected a working system and got a hardware banned system.

[carmine plank]

working normal one x is like 80 or 90 euro (WHERE I LIVE) its differnet price where you live

[final coral]

Unless your a switch the last gen are not worth anything when the new consoles are out.
The only other ones of any value are like retro ones like an n64

[carmine plank]

threre isnt anywhere where i can check it?

[final coral]

Nintendo gonna still sell switch at full price when switch 2 has been out for 2 years.
You heard it hear first

[carmine plank]

yea ik

[hollow hawk]

Not sure tbh, I doubt Microsoft offers any official means to find out.
(On eBay, seller reviews are king, if their positive rating is less than 80%, tread carefully)

[carmine plank]

i meant like fb marketplace

[hollow hawk]

Yeah you're kinda just gonna have to trust them. Take advantage of the fact you can communicate with the seller, if they refuse to tell you if the console is banned or not, find another seller. Not sure if FB Marketplace offers a way to vet sellers, never purchased from there (I also have no Facebook account, but that's another story)

[carmine plank]

yea ok, and i didnt mean fb marketplace but a similar one thats way more popular in finland

[cinder veldt]

Facebook has no like security thing, you have to go to the person and check the console (or have them check over text) recommend not shipping anything ever on Facebook marketplace

[hollow hawk]

Ah, well as I'm in the US, I probably don't have any concept of what service it is, this is as far as I can take ya traveller
I wish you luck, and hope you get your hands on a good system.

[fiery python]

The console, no. The games, absolutely.

[carmine plank]

yea thx

[hushed hound]

Hey y'all

[cinder veldt]

Heyoo

[crystal tendon]

just buy switch games from other websites then its cheaper

[hushed hound]

Today wasn't making sense, was so cold in the morning and then gets so hot lol

[crystal tendon]

Anyone want to know how you can get free game pass ultimate?

[cinder veldt]

Sweden be like that

[cinder veldt]

MS rewards

[hollow hawk]

Yeah nah, they'll definitely be slashing NS prices when their new system drops. It's how you squeeze the last few sales you can get out of an older system. Games will either be ported and sold at full price, or backwards compatibility/back compat+enhancements at a discount I'd bet.

[crystal tendon]

yes and ambassador program too

[fiery python]

It's not truly 'free' though if you're having to put in work to get it. You're paying with your time.

[crystal tendon]

i guess

[hollow hawk]

Beats paying with my wallet

[carmine plank]

does xbox series s run fh5 2k?

[gleaming crest]

The series s runs all games at 1440p and upscales to 4k if possible i believe

[fiery python]

No, not all games run at 1440p natively.

[earnest girder]

Man I just love Game pass just tried out Gotham Knights

[gleaming crest]

My bad

[hushed hound]

Anyway, i was planing on developing the next a Plague Tale series, i manage to write the story by getting inspired by the teaser, not sure if Asobo would like it tough, if i say what is about can be mentioned as a spoiler, since has to deal with some characters in the past games...

[fiery python]

Discord has spoiler tags.

But a full game script would be a bit long to be posting here.

[green laurel]

Does it involve a tale of plagues

[hushed hound]

I was thinking how to explain it since is a bit complicated to understand, i would just try to animate using the story i guess

[fiery python]

If it's complicated to understand then it's not going to work.

[hushed hound]

I agree, would just become worse then actual is

[green laurel]

Oh no xbox has a gold shadow controller. My wallet cries

[velvet meteor]

Guys, if I get Ubisoft+ on Xbox. Will the same sub work for me on my PC? thinking of getting it for 1 month for AC Mirage

[fiery python]

Yes, the sub to include console games is the highest tier so gives you PC too.

But if you only intend to play on PC, sign up on PC to get the cheaper plan.

[green laurel]

The subscription future is coming fast

[hushed hound]

It hurts how you have in mind the story + the visuals of the game and problem being the rendering, scripting, and much more into it, without a team is useless

[velvet meteor]

Actually ubisoft+ standalone costs more in my country as compared to the Xbox deal cause it isn't available here in my currency 😛

As I saw the prices of EA FC 24 my wallet made a heart attack

[green laurel]

Meh always has been

[barren sparrow]

Hi

[green laurel]

24 is terrible too

[tired hare]

hi

where do i see my rewards in the gamepass? like 3 months nitro

[hushed hound]

When i saw the price of RTX 4060 i was suprised because most GPU's are overpriced by a lot in my country, i seen RTX 3060 being more expensive then that one...

[barren sparrow]

Hey! I have a small problem, the first time I plug an ethernet cable into my xbox series s, but it doesn't work, it shows me "Wired; Ipv4; NAT type: Not available; xbox.com/xboxone/Teredo"

[fiery python]

Go to the link it's giving you for help.

[barren sparrow]

I don't find

[fiery python]

xbox.com/xboxone/Teredo

[inner arrow]

RDR1 got 4k 60fps patch on PS5. Wish the xbox version got it 😅

[hushed hound]

I just find out about "The Medium" story game, anyone played it before?

[inner arrow]

Yes. Technically a bit of a mess at times but definitely an enjoyable experience

[fiery python]

The Xbox version is already 4K

[green laurel]

Actually patch?

[inner arrow]

Not 60fps tho

[hushed hound]

Oh, I heard people complain about it being a copy of Silent Hill.. but i don't mind if was being inspired by other type of games to be honest

The Trailer looks interesting, makes me wanna play the game

[winter forum]

I thought RDR2 was capped at 30 because of timers/delays etc causing bugs otherwise? Or am I thinking of something else?

[idle spear]

It's 30 on PS5 also, some minor improvements over the emulated 360 version that runs on One X and SX

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9QmGxSKZ_4

[idle spear]

2 has no issues at 60. PC version runs fine at that FPS.

[winter forum]

Fair enough

Might have been a GTA game I was thinking of then or smth?

[idle spear]

Yeah older rockstar games have logic issues above 30. Basically GTA4 and older

[trail harness]

GTA V is the best Rockstar PC port IMO

[idle spear]

By far yeah. That game runs on hardware you wouldn't expect

[trail harness]

and it uses roughly the same amount of vram as GTA IV

Very impressive for how good the game looks.

[idle spear]

Max Payne 3 was pretty good as well. They seemed to take things a bit more seriously around that time for PC

[open notch]

Fr tho playstation better

[fiery python]

Owning both is better.

Grow up.

[open notch]

Fr tho playstation better

[fiery python]

We don't care.

Go and play on it if it's so good.

[gleaming crest]

man everytime i see a one x it looks so temtping to buy

[half shadow]

Probably of the nicest Xbox One consoles.

[dark sparrow]

GTAIV probably had the worst PC Port

[gleaming crest]

its the best out of the bunch imo, but im trying to stick to commiting to a series s or a 2nd hand series x

[idle spear]

I think the cyberpunk One X looks the best personally

[gleaming crest]

the one x just still looks good compared to the series s for me bc of the disc drive

[half shadow]

Halo Series X pop up sometimes cheap due to Halo popularity is falling a bit lately.

[tired hare]

GTA V has the most boring physics engine compared to GTA IV

[idle spear]

For consoles I actually use I prefer plain white or black to fit into my setup but the limited ones are nice to collect

[dark sparrow]

It's the same physics engine, just toned down.

[tired hare]

Hopefully GTA VI will bring back GTA IV physics

[dark sparrow]

Probably not

[gleaming crest]

yeah i saw the special edition elite controller go for cheaper

[half shadow]

I am hoping we see an Elite S3 by next year.

[idle spear]

The physics on the force unleashed games were fun throwing the stormtroopers around.

[serene reef]

has anyone finished rdr2 main story?

[idle spear]

yes

[gleaming crest]

wth

[tired hare]

I wish I could play the game but I am too broke and have just a laptop and outdated console

[serene reef]

can you answer me a question? im at the story part where || the gang killed bronte, the italian guy in saint denis,|| how long is the game from there on?

[gleaming crest]

same tbh, i would kinda hope xbox draws a bit of inspiration from the dualsense pro controller from sony

with the interchangable analogue sticks

[serene reef]

gamestop would give you around 20 bucks for that

[idle spear]

Can't quite remember. If you find a full game play through on YT it should tell you

[half shadow]

They probably would give $1 for most games and not take half of them.

[gleaming crest]

the games are sold seperately

[serene reef]

Ah alright thanks anyways

[half shadow]

I like that idea. However id rather see a more durable stick.

[serene reef]

The game is so good but its also so damn long 😭

[gleaming crest]

i already somewhat locked my eyes into a series x listing, im just hoping that its still there next month

i saw like 2-3 of em on sale for the same price as the series s 1TB

[idle spear]

It took me about 40 hours to finish it

[tired hare]

I wish I could play RDR 2 but I have not enough money

[gleaming crest]

yeah and they need to do something about those grips imo, werent those another weakpoint in the elite series 2

[half shadow]

My grips have held up just fine. No peeling. They are a pain to clean and could be a bit more grippy.

[serene reef]

it was pretty cheap for me on PC

[desert sonnet]

Good morning and happy Darktide day

[sage ice]

wait for it to go on sale

[half shadow]

It goes on sale very often

[tired hare]

On Steam it was like 15€ but idk if I’m allowed to talk about other gaming platforms in here

[half shadow]

Sure you can

[sage ice]

all gamers are welcome here, no matter the platform they play

[idle spear]

I was happy my character synced over

[tired hare]

When is the next black friday?

[gleaming crest]

always november 21st i think

[sage ice]

there is only one a year

[kind heron]

https://tenor.com/view/triples-is-best-bob-odenkirk-i-think-you-should-leave-with-tim-robinson-triples-are-the-greatest-triples-are-the-goat-gif-7765930035781170540

[sage ice]

It is not always the 21st. It is the day after US Thanksgiving

[gleaming crest]

yeah but technically the game deals are basically the whole month

[tired hare]

I’m not sure about that because I’m in Europe

🤔

[gleaming crest]

november 24th

man i cant wait to get galaxy buds and a new xbox

[sage ice]

Black Friday is a US term that went world wide with the internet. It is the day retailers move from the red to the black because it is the biggest shopping day of the year.

[tired hare]

I saw videos on the internet that people were literally fighting in stores over things

[sage ice]

yes, that is real

[half shadow]

I am not sure the state of the RDR2 PC port but a couple of years ago it had a lot of issues. The PS5 version is locked to 30 FPS. Xbox might have the best version of it if the PC port still has issues. If not then PC is the way to go if you have a decent one.

[true plinth]

I haven't seen fights since like 2010 for Black Friday In person.

[true plinth]

No it's the Friday after the 4th Thursday in November

[tired hare]

I downoland half the game and its says "ready to start" I can play???

[fiery python]

Probably not.

[tired hare]

:((

[tired hare]

Do gaming platforms also have sales on Black Friday?

[true plinth]

I don't know maybe

[fiery python]

Ready to start is typically useless and most games just load the menu and then make you wait for the rest of the game.

[tired hare]

omfg

[sage ice]

yes, gaming platforms do sales around the holidays.

[true plinth]

I think on like one game it gave me up to the character creator.

[tired hare]

GTA V Loading be like: Just 1 more year until it’s loaded

[half shadow]

A large porition of Europe started doing Black Friday around 2013. It falls on the same dates as North America which is the final weekend in November. So thats Nov 24th this year.

[fiery python]

A few rare games will let you play something. One of the Fifa games let you play a friendly match and Star Wars Battlefront let you play a match with bots. But it's largely a useless feature.

[potent snow]

are you a kid, if yes then get it on ur bday or smth

[true plinth]

I really need 2 hours to go by I'm struggling this morning and want food

[potent snow]

that reminds me

[river birch]

Bruv wha I do my controller left joystick ain’t workin Wheneva I be tappin it and it is my jump button

[potent snow]

what should i get on my bday, i dont have paddles on my xbox controller so shpuld i get paddles or a ps4 slim?? i have a xbox series s rn

[true plinth]

You send it for repair to Microsoft

[river birch]

Totally exists in Germany

[true plinth]

I wouldn't get a previous gen console as they are loosing support

[tired hare]

What Minecraft update was actually the best (To me it’s literally everything before the Phantom, 1.12.2 and the Village and Pillage update)

[potent snow]

what if i am getting a ps5

[river birch]

Better than ps 4

[potent snow]

yea but paddles for my xbox or a ps5

[fiery python]

You're really asking between controller paddles and a full console?

[potent snow]

yea cuz i dont have paddles

i got one chance at this then i will have to wait a yr, its my bday

[fiery python]

When you say paddles, do you mean an Elite controller, or one of those kits?

[potent snow]

elite controller

[half shadow]

Connect your controller to a PC or phone. Run a test app to double check your inputs. If they are faulty then replacing it is probably your only option if its not under warranty.

[fiery python]

Well, what do you think you'll get more enjoyment from? A slightly enhanced controller for a console you already own, or a brand new generation console?

[half shadow]

The Elite S2 is nice. The core versions don't include paddles or the extra other bits.

[potent snow]

both tbh

[crystal tendon]

buy core once you have the paddles and stuff

[potent snow]

no im getting with paddles.....

[fiery python]

Also consider the fact that a PS5 is considerably more expensive than an Elite controller. Personally I'd rather get that than a controller if someone else is paying for it.

You could always save up for an Elite controller much faster than you could a console.

[half shadow]

Yeah I am just telling you the difference so you don't buy the core thinking it has paddles included already.

[final coral]

Just get a regular series 2 and when it inevitably breaks keeps the paddles and sticks and buys a core

[true plinth]

I mean a controller gives you the same access to games you have now a new console gives you access to more titles.

[potent snow]

hmm

[fiery python]

Personally I think it's a no brainer, but it's your choice. You're the one that is using it. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[potent snow]

im asking for tips frm my frnds 🙂

[crystal tendon]

yeah, it’s a no brainer to get ps5

[half shadow]

If money is tight or an issue then getting a PS5 probably means not getting many games often.

[true plinth]

Oh I didn't know you wanted from your friends my bad

[potent snow]

nah nah

[tired hare]

Skyrim comes out literally every year

[desert sonnet]

They sync?? I haven't played it yet

[potent snow]

i mean ican get anything, money dosent matter

[true plinth]

That's not correct

[potent snow]

im rich.....

[crystal tendon]

there has only ever been one skyrim

[fiery python]

Then you wouldn't need to wait until your next birthday to get the other item then.

[idle spear]

Yeah with gamepass version at least I don't know about steam

[turbid bridge]

What is the best xbox game ever?

[sage ice]

Fortnite

[potent snow]

wiat

[fiery python]

If you're as rich as you claim, this wouldn't even be a decision to get feedback from strangers about.

[tired hare]

Minecraft

[potent snow]

wait, ik what to do

[desert sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/dance-dimitri-meme-party-gif-17170265

[idle spear]

Blinx the time sweeper

[half shadow]

Buy the PS5 and Elite S2.

[cloud spindle]

Halo CE

[potent snow]

im getting a ps4 slim with paddles ! 🙂
made the desision

[crystal tendon]

If you were so rich, you would get a ps5 and dualsense edge

[fiery python]

That sounds like something a rich person wouldn't say.

[half shadow]

PS4 is a bad decision.

[turbid bridge]

I'd rather a used ps5

[half shadow]

Unless you want to play the older titles for a while.

[tired hare]

How worth are Xbox 360 consoles now if I sell it

[turbid bridge]

Because it has newer games

[crystal tendon]

like £30

[half shadow]

Unles its a special edition then nothing really. A few bucks. Special edition faceplates can be worth some money as well.

[tired hare]

Or 34,69 Euro

[tired hare]

Is that with controller included?

[half shadow]

No one would probably buy one without controller/cables. If they did it would be worth even less.

[tired hare]

Anyway, I’m saving money for an Xbox One

[fiery python]

Better off saving for a Series S

[tired hare]

Isn’t Series X costing more than Xbox One?

[half shadow]

Xbox One is loosing dev support

[fiery python]

I said S, not X, but yes.

Xbox One no longer gets new games from Xbox Game Studios and many other AAA titles will be focusing on new generation consoles from now on. You'll stop seeing new games on XB1 more and more over time, so it's a poor choice at this point unless you only want to play old games.

The Series S is the cheaper model of the new generation consoles, so closer in cost to an Xbox One.

[half shadow]

The only down side to the S is no disc drive if you still want physical media.

[tired hare]

And where should I fit the thing because it doesn’t fit under or next to the TV

[fiery python]

Series S is the smallest Xbox they've ever made.

If you can fit an Xbox One, you can fit a Series S.

[half shadow]

The Series X can be laid down as well. So either console can fit under quite a bit. The Series S is damn small.

[tired hare]

Series S will be then

[lunar terrace]

Ign posted an unfair comparision of motorsport vs gt7 , There is something wrong with their capture card , The game is nowhere looking like this.

[desert sonnet]

Classic Ign

[tired hare]

Does Xbox allow you to play older disk games on newer consoles

That’s the big question because I don’t wanna lose my score

[sage ice]

some games, not all. But the Series S has no disc drive, you need the Series X for that

[tired hare]

:/

[sage ice]

you log in with the same account, so your score will remain no matter the Xbox you purchase

[tired hare]

Then I should buy the games once again on the store

[half shadow]

or they might be on gamepass

[sage ice]

IF they are back compat and you get the S, correct

[tired hare]

There’s one problem, I have no credit card to pay for it monthly

[half shadow]

You can use Paypal.

[tired hare]

I have to be 18 to open an account and I’m only 16

[sage ice]

then either have an adult pay, or wait

[tired hare]

I’ll wait

[fiery python]

Go to a store and buy a Game Pass gift card using whatever payment method you do have.

[tired hare]

Wait, isn’t better to actually buy the game instead of paying for gamepass because if something happens to the gamepass like an error or didn’t pay to extend it then I can’t play the games anymore

[fluid creek]

I can only play one game if I get the game

I can play loads if I get game pass

And if/when the game leaves game pass, I can buy it if i want then

[still turtle]

But if u only want to play that single game for a long time, buy it

[idle spear]

I do both currently, gamepass for ways to try out new games I wouldn't otherwise do like Lies of P which I actually enjoyed quite a bit

[prime sun]

I prefer to pay for game pass, as once I’ve completed a game I move on to the next

[idle spear]

By the time a game gets taken off gamepass it's usually significantly cheaper to buy also

[final coral]

Welp I broken the Microsoft store on my Xbox

[desert sonnet]

Stop breaking stuff

[final coral]

I really hope it like reinstalls or updates correctly after a restart

Fixed it!

[idle spear]

Whats wrong with it?

[light panther]

-Great story
-Fantastic Pacing
-breathtaking graphics

-slow tutorial section

[maiden timber]

hi

[final coral]

Woudnt launch at all

[idle spear]

Ah I sometimes get the MS store stuck in an updating state in my games and apps but the app still opens

[final coral]

Yeah that’s exactly what mine is doing right now.
I uninstalled it trying to get rid of it and to install forza before and that’s what broke it

[desert sonnet]

You know what, I had an issue installing Darktide earlier. Whenever I hit install, it would just back out as if i started it but it never did.

I had to go onto the game page itself on the Microsoft store to install it.

[idle spear]

Maybe it's a bug, I have several Xboxes and it does it on all of them

[final coral]

It’s not a bug.
This is the Microsoft store so it’s a feature

[vocal gorge]

game pass might actually work out cheaper plus it has a ton of other games to play and a discount on games and stuff like more expensive editions if you plan to play a game that is on it. Likt I could take Starfield for example. Upfront cost of the game and premium edition content shows £99.99 vs cost of Xbox Game Pass (12.99/month) + Premium edition upgrade (£31.49) actually works out much cheaper than even if you wanted the standard edition of that game (£69.99)

[idle spear]

It did that for me also, I guess another bug

I had to hit install a few times for it to get going

[warm trench]

tomorrow can play Forza Motorsport because i have premium add on!!!

[final coral]

It’s broken again for some reason.
For a software company Microsoft really do have the worst store

[idle spear]

Yeah it's stuck on mine atm, I guess will be fixed at some point

[warm trench]

i have Xbox Series X version and not any problem

[sullen forum]

If you reboot your console, it should finish the install and unstick itself

[final coral]

Yeah it actually updated this time

[idle spear]

Is that a known bug? Seems to happen quite often I need to do a clean boot for it to update

[final coral]

It’s not a bug it’s a feature

[tired hare]

This is hilarious

[sullen forum]

Yes, it's a bug, no it's not a "feature" Jack, and yes it's known

[warm trench]

i have automatic updates on so im not even know about update

when last update have been came?

[sullen forum]

https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/settings-updates/whats-new-xbox-one-system-updates

[final coral]

A week or 2 ago

[tired hare]

Yoo sup guys!!

[sullen forum]

Known issues > Store

[warm trench]

lol then yes i have that for sure

[tired hare]

Wth is this lmao😂

[final coral]

Actually auto update is still broken

[sullen forum]

No, auto update is not broken

[tired hare]

Yes same issue with Microsoft store here guys 😦

[tired hare]

For some users like me, it is

[tired hare]

It’s spam

[final coral]

Well the auto update the games is broken.
Console updates are fine though

[sullen forum]

If the game is on an external drive, you may need to check the option to keep external drives powered when in standby mode

Also, you need to have used the game in the last 28 days for it to keep getting updates

And if you try and play immediately after an update launches, you're going to see the update required, period, because there's been no time to download it in the background

[tired hare]

I have the most latest update installed in my series s and Microsoft store always keeps getting updated, I contacted Microsoft support but even they couldn't resolve the issue lol💀😂

[final coral]

Oh last 28 days probably explain why but I’m pretty sure it use to just update everything as long as you had spaced before

[swift thistle]

https://tenor.com/view/dante-devil-may-cry-dmc5-dante-jump-gif-23463585

[sullen forum]

Long ago, yes, but then games got bigger, bandwidth caps became much more pronounced, and when the pandemic hit, data usage went through the roof with everyone doing WFH that ISPs were struggling to keep up

[warm trench]

i just check and i have latest updates with automatic updates so it havent been broken for me

[idle spear]

Yeah I can see that being an issue in some places where data caps are more common now

[warm trench]

i have Xbox Series X and this original 1tb storage have been for me easily enough. if soebody playing many many games same time then its not maybe enough but i dont play many games at same time

[idle spear]

I could fill up many terabytes on mine but I usually keep installed games in my backlog or ones I need to come back to

[granite verge]

This is very helpful, thanks!

[green laurel]

We won't get the cloud future if caps get more common smh

[final coral]

I do hope they revert the change eventually now.
Especially how speeds are getting more faster in a lot more areas now.

[half shadow]

Hopefully as this gen continues on and SSDs keep getting used we will see game size reduction that devs had mentioned in the past. I am not hopeful though.

[tired hare]

Bro is that your real hair on your pfp?🤔

[final coral]

That reminds me I want my broadband contract to finish already so o can get gigabit that just came into my area but I’m too cheap to pay to cancel it

[potent snow]

yope

[fiery python]

I'd give a kidney if it meant I could get gigabit 😄

[granite verge]

It used to be, last year. Now it's more space rainbow, but washed out as I had it re-done a a few months ago now

[tired hare]

I just completed my workout and I smell so bad

[idle spear]

I will get gigabit by 2027 at least thanks to Openreach taking forever.

[final coral]

Well I think the advertised speed is 990 but close enough.
It’s a lot better than the 70 I have currently

[tired hare]

rn even my xbox would reject me 😭

atleast I have starfield thanks to bethesda 💟

[fiery python]

Right now I get 60-70, so I'll let them off that 10mb difference.

[half shadow]

Not available or the cost? The only "affordable" gigabit here is cable. Fiber is super expensive for it.

[idle spear]

70 is about the best you can get for fibre from cabinet I think

[fiery python]

Not available, sadly. There's a provider in the area, but they refuse to supply our building.

[final coral]

Uk?

[fiery python]

Yep

[tired hare]

Just asking in general, Why did you colour your hair with rainbow colour? Was something wrong with your original hair? (No offense to anyone or to your hair/hair colour)

[granite verge]

Because I wanted to

[idle spear]

Many places in the UK have poor internet

[final coral]

Yeah that seems to be the highest speed in most areas without gigabit

[granite verge]

And because space rainbow hair looks badass

[half shadow]

Ah yeah... Large buildings are a pain. Usually the landlord has to pay quite a bit to have the building wired for it. I can't get it in my 4 unit building because the landlord wouldn't pay 5k to the ISP to install the wiring.

[tired hare]

Finish gta 4 story In less than 30 hours

[fiery python]

This area has decent internet. The building next door can get 600mb. They just refuse to do the work to go down the long driveway here to install it in our building.

[tired hare]

Yes💀

[summer magnet]

Rainbow coloured hair is awesome

[granite verge]

Can you turn off the ping/tag when replying, please? Thanks

[final coral]

Just get an extension lead and a very long Ethernet cable

[idle spear]

Yeah if it's a separate connection like Virgin media or some of the others might be possible but Openreach is very slow at getting it rolled out nationwide.

[warm trench]

i have 1500 gamerscore in GTA IV, San Andreas 1000 and V 1250

[fiery python]

I'd happily pay someone in the building next door to run an ethernet cable over to our kitchen window.

[tired hare]

Nice

[tired hare]

You said that to me?

[granite verge]

Yes

[tired hare]

Gta 4 only have 250, gta 5 195

[warm trench]

i didnt like online but single player very much

[final coral]

Virgin loves to oversell and handicap their services just to give out free upgrades for compensate and overload it again

[tired hare]

Me too

[idle spear]

I had a pretty mixed experience using Virgin media before

[fiery python]

What's annoying is that the estate agents had VM listed as a possible supplier here with 500mb+.

When we tried to get it installed they said no and that the building was on a no supply list so not to bother asking again.

[tired hare]

But I didn't tag you a single time while replying you, where did it go wrong?

[fiery python]

If we'd have known in advance we probably would have looked for another place.

[granite verge]

You're tagging me everytime you reply and don't turn the ping off

See the image posted above

[final coral]

Wow that sucks hopefully someone else comes in

[tired hare]

How you have gta sa on Xbox? Is it on 360

[tired hare]

Ohh sorry bro I forgot, won't do it from next time!, BTW why mods don't like getting tagged? (Just asking for the knowledge)

[warm trench]

GTA:SA is for Xbox 360

[tired hare]

Ok 👍

[warm trench]

also its for Xbox but its different version and dont have Gamerscore like not any original xbox games

[half shadow]

They use modmail for issues. So not a big need to tag/ping them for mod problems.

[granite verge]

For me, personally, I prefer only to be tagged on things that need my attention. I read chat, so I don't need pinged when I'm here
I channel hop a lot to monitor other servers

[idle spear]

Previous tenants had a connection with them which was still ongoing after we got there regardless of no longer living in the place so couldn't use the internet until that lapsed, dunno why they couldn't cancel it and let us use it but we had no internet for like 2 months because of that. Upload speed was poor and used to get throttled in evenings which wasn't good either but it was still the fastest option in the area.

[tired hare]

Ohh I see

[tired hare]

Ohh

[ripe coral]

I need to send a video in the support chat but i can’t what can i do?

[final coral]

My mate out in york have had it for ages whereas I’ve only just had it installed now and I live a few miles away from the centre of a bigish city
