[karmic berry]

be sure to pack some balloons

[frank yoke]

Never using mods 😔

I got the 24k badge solo in peak difficulty, hard part is merely climbing out of the tomb

[tawdry pagoda]

how is that the hard part? You have a simple stair way out

[dusky ember]

One run I just started using every piece of rope I found and won

[cunning edge]

i made it surprisingly far up mesa solo with the idol on a7 so i imagine it would be easier

[karmic berry]

and you didnt get the badge?

[frank yoke]

There wasn’t a staircase— had to climb out of the ground

like just out of the tomb but not out entirely..

[versed rivet]

I do look a like kek

[dusky ember]

I did

[tawdry pagoda]

do you mean you back tracked your steps when you did it kind of thing?

[dusky ember]

You need like 9 ropes

[opal pine]

Anyone tryna play 18+

[lament lynx]

the alpines are actually so beautiful today

[craggy zephyr]

And then you try climbing them and close the game

[frank yoke]

I mean, yeah? The only issue was I didn’t have much stamina to climb out of the area ABOVE the tomb itself, I was in there

[lament lynx]

its still so beautiful

yeah its no longer beautiful

[frank yoke]

(Credit daily map info, I was in the orange-circled area, where the tomb was. A long way down.. and a long way back up)

[tawdry pagoda]

There's usually a simple pathing to leave under the bridge when entering the ancient idol room

[karmic berry]

i love honk shooing on the ice

[frank yoke]

Didn’t see it 😔

[lament lynx]

I died on lava

Floating in 2 poles

[karmic berry]

yeah then you took a nap on the ice :3

[frank yoke]

They were truly.. on ice!

[silver drum]

I hate PURPLE

[tawdry pagoda]

Yeah that's why I was confused on how leaving is the tough part, that exit is always there

[lost gate]

trying to look for other outfit pieces that go along well with the aviator hat but it is less than i thought it would be.

[frank yoke]

And so, I was a complete idiot! I’ll remember that for next time 😭

[karmic berry]

fair fair going to be honest when i got into the game i found an outfit i liked and i litterally cannot switch out of it i like it that much

[lost gate]

it's been like this for me. i got the Up scout outfit from the balloon badge and haven't switched since.
the aviator hat goes ok with it i think, but i like to experiment

[frank yoke]

Up scout outfit is probably +(My opinion) my favorite in terms of it can be used with a lot of stuff

[lost gate]

my lil guy

[dusky ember]

I love the balloon outfit

[craggy zephyr]

Lemon grab gotta be the favourite fit ive worn yet

[mild nacelle]

yo do any of yall have any tips for ascent 5

cuz ik like the nights are cold do u just huddle up somewhere to heat back up

[dusky ember]

The night is 3 minutes and 20 seconds long and gives you a total of 97 cold, with this knowledge you can save your lantern duration to make it last as long as possible

Only warm yourself up when you are in danger or need the stamina

[mild nacelle]

mm ok ok i see

[near hearth]

Does anyone happen to know how to prevent this issue from happening when I play using Vulkan? Every single time I play Peak using Vulkan, I am always able to see through geometery when I look at it in the correct direction, and it gets really annoying

[mild nacelle]

ty man

[dusky ember]

Worst case scenario, if you have food and are healthy you can tank the cold as long as you are willing to pass out for a bit

[versed rivet]

have you tried other game rendering like dx11 or is vulkan your only option?

[dusky ember]

But having a friend or two to snuggle up with is always going to be better

[near hearth]

Vulkan is my only option with what I have, I am afraid

[near hearth]

I do have a screenshot from in game to show what I see as well

[dusky ember]

When I open the window in winter to cool down my room but I forgot to close it before going to bed

[versed rivet]

you could probably try the mod HDPEAK if you still want squeeze out some fps and fix the rendering

[dusky ember]

Scorch berries are also super awesome for surviving the night alone

[near hearth]

HDPEAK?

[versed rivet]

yes in the thunderstore.io

[dusky ember]

How does that work

[versed rivet]

more graphics options

we can talk more about it in the #🔧peak-modded-chat

[low horizon]

I hate the alpines today, anyway ascent 7 run

[thin ether]

i have a question

why is it always tropics and alpine? i thought they were supposed to switch in mesa and roots too

my friends have been wanting to experience anything but tropics and alpine but its always those two, unless the wiki is wrong?

[low horizon]

Uh you got unlucky thats all

[versed rivet]

the new update kinda ruined the map rotation

[thin ether]

is it unlucky or did it break again

[low horizon]

Yeah so now you may gotta wait a lil longer

[cobalt dome]

ay whats the mod that people have to kick people?

[low horizon]

Not literally broken, an update just resets the random cycle

[versed rivet]

none, best you can do is use mods that denies those people from joining your lobby in the next run

[low horizon]

So if roots was guaranteed but an update hits, tropics can be again for up to 2 more days, same for mesa alpine

[wet sequoia]

HI

[cobalt dome]

nah i got kicked from a lobby a few days ago because my character was doing the spaz glitch and i sent someone flying off the campfire by accident 💀

theres def a mod that lets you kill players of your choice too, but idk if that guy just had a cheat mod menu

[versed rivet]

well i know mods that directly just offs you the map but never a kick button

[cobalt dome]

yeah pls may you release such infomation 🙏 very annoying when people join 10 mins into the game right as the team is reaching the campfire then we all have to wait 20mins for slow mfs

[unreal dock]

Is today roots chat

[cobalt dome]

i dont think so

[karmic berry]

nope

[unreal dock]

Sad

[cobalt dome]

pretty sure its tropics

[karmic berry]

tropic and alpine

[low horizon]

nah, purple tropics with very wonky generation

[unreal dock]

Honestly purple tropics was kinda pretty when my friends and I saw it

[cobalt dome]

oh shit nvm ive not played the new map i just got home from work

[low horizon]

Its pretty, whats not pretty is you either go right or die

[unreal dock]

Go right because she never treat me left

But ty guys for responding

What would be pretty cute is if we had to submerge ourselves in water and try not to get eaten by a giant shark

[karmic berry]

giant shark you say

[grim comet]

I wish you could drown in peak

[cobalt dome]

speak for yourself

[cunning edge]

flooded roots when

[native sequoia]

I wish water broke your fall like minecraft, yes I tried on roots. RIP

Is there a ancient chest every run or is it rare? I've only ever found 1 and it was weeks ago.

[fringe marsh]

shallow reefs update

[urban herald]

I’ve seen plenty of ancient chests every so often during rotations

[cunning edge]

all water does is make moving aong the ground harder

but the puddles in roots are so avoidable it doesnt matter

[native sequoia]

Dang, I'm pretty good at sniffing out chests, guess I'm just unlucky...

[pallid fable]

anybody wanna play?

[whole minnow]

Please use #🌲peak-lfg-vanilla or #🔨peak-lfg-modded when looking for other players! (You need to be Level 1 in the server to chat there.)

[pallid fable]

lol

[umbral compass]

Does anyone have a route for the tropics cause it feels impossible to cross at ascent 6 without relying on getting lucky with luggage drops

[urban herald]

Well it just takes a lot of time to find those chests, considering the amount of time before the fog rises

[gilded patrol]

Today's map has some really big changes

Alpine got lava now and tropics becomes purple

[umbral compass]

They updated their generation algorirhm I guess

[gilded patrol]

I was honestly shocked during my first run

[umbral compass]

I use to check the map daily on the steam community website but since a few days their posts have been way off the actual thing

[gilded patrol]

I couldn't believe what I'm seeing lol

[native sequoia]

Yeah, the lava was cool!

[umbral compass]

Even the shore today was tough

[gilded patrol]

Not today tho

They seem to return normal

[umbral compass]

Oh! Good to know

[gilded patrol]

Only skip yesterday I think

[cobalt dome]

+i think i just found a new glitch / ultimate hiding spot lol

[umbral compass]

But I still need a route for tropics cause it is hell in the middle

[cobalt dome]

ts been done before chat?

[gilded patrol]

Wdym it's literally so ezzz if u climb from the sides

[gilded patrol]

Understandable honestly

[umbral compass]

It is not that difficult but compared to regular shore it is tougher

[gilded patrol]

Too many of those poisonous "platforms"

[umbral compass]

But the tropics feel impossible without good items

[slim sandal]

i think i went mainly to the left during my last run in tropics but i don’t really remember

[umbral compass]

I got stuck in the middle after the bush with scorchberries

[umbral compass]

Did you use a lot of items

[gilded patrol]

Also I hate going into those bunch of leaves and always avoid going into them cuz I had that kind of weird phobia for ticks knowing they will grow big and get into my skin

[slim sandal]

only energy drinks iirc

[gilded patrol]

Yes ik I just reveal my own fear of those tiny lil critters

[slim sandal]

i’m about to get to the tropics again now so if i find a good path i’ll let yall know

[umbral compass]

Please do

[sour elk]

anyone want to play

[whole minnow]

Please use #🌲peak-lfg-vanilla or #🔨peak-lfg-modded when looking for other players! (You need to be Level 1 in the server to chat there.)

[umbral compass]

Because i can't do that many runs today

Doing the ascents in solo is hard

[gilded patrol]

First of all I haven't beaten any run since three days ago as in ascent runs

[umbral compass]

I will not forget how I died at the kiln 1 or 2 days ago because the generation was wonky and I had no lollipop

[frosty ruin]

who wanna play trailmakers

[whole minnow]

Please use #🌲peak-lfg-vanilla or #🔨peak-lfg-modded when looking for other players! (You need to be Level 1 in the server to chat there.)

[gilded patrol]

And since today is literally the worst map possible

I can forget about clearing it

[umbral compass]

My toxic trait is thinking I could make it if I try enough times

[gilded patrol]

Mine is the opposite

[umbral compass]

But I only did it once and felt discouraged

Like you cannot cross the tropics without good items

[gilded patrol]

If five times should I fail imma give up right away and wait for next map

[umbral compass]

Usually you could do it itemless or at worst use only one

[gilded patrol]

True true

[static dagger]

is there a LFG channel?

[gilded patrol]

Honestly we felt the same

[gilded patrol]

Yes

[umbral compass]

Yep

[gilded patrol]

Level 1

Make sure your level is that

[umbral compass]

Need level 1 tho so send 5 messages 1 minute apart of each other to level up

[static dagger]

I already am level 1 💔

[gilded patrol]

Basically in other words just say anything here

[umbral compass]

Go to #🌲peak-lfg-vanilla

[slim sandal]

nvm i screwed up my shore route im restarting 💀

[umbral compass]

I told y'all today's shore was tough

[static dagger]

"this channel is not on your channel list" what on earth discord

[umbral compass]

What

[gilded patrol]

Honestly I wanna team up with ya but then the lfg rule is pretty strict here so I'm conflicted rn

Actually yk what imma just say it

[umbral compass]

Just add each other on dc and play together

[gilded patrol]

Ok

[cobalt dome]

chat i keep glitching out of the airport

why is the scoutmaster in here lmfao

[umbral compass]

Check your passport

[umbral compass]

That is where they keep him

[cobalt dome]

nah im doing it on purpose just tryna see whats out here

[umbral compass]

@gilded patrol if you meant adding me I am at work now

[gilded patrol]

Ohhhh ok then

[umbral compass]

I might play later but I can't use the mic so I'll do a solo run

[crystal timber]

oh, is that new? it was my first time getting there today

i think i died right near the end of the climb 😔

[near hearth]

@versed rivet so it actually turns out that I just needed to update a single driver to fix the issue I was having XD

[umbral compass]

I wonder what the devs are cooking when they said they are working on a secret

[grim comet]

hopefully its a bitcoin miner 🙏

[green fern]

what's the name of the current purple tropic?

[south grail]

Wish me luck, ima play peak by myself and hope I dont die💔 has anyone collected all the badges yet?

[cunning edge]

ngl a lot of my badges I got on accident just trying out the cannon glitch in that era

[south grail]

Whats that??

[grim comet]

Lots of people have

[south grail]

Yeah, I thought so💀 I havent played for like a week or so

[umbral compass]

Imagine having friends to collect all the badges with

[south grail]

Ong

[umbral compass]

Btw the rescue claw badge works on unconscious zombies

[south plank]

Im new can anyone help me play?

[south grail]

Perchance

[mellow hornet]

i guess the game has a broad definition of "friends"

[cunning edge]

look in the lfg channels

[umbral compass]

I wonder if you can pull the scout master for the badge too

[south grail]

Hey i think this is a nice tip, ima try it

[south plank]

I cant it says i dont have permission

[umbral compass]

It is kinda hard to pull tho since you have to make the zombie pass away with a sleeping dart for it to count I think

And today is tropics not roots

[cunning edge]

there are plenty of people willing to help you with achievments here

[cyan karma]

I Just 100% the game🙏

[south grail]

Wait what's the third level?

[umbral compass]

Mount everest

[south plank]

ohh i just have to accept rules

[south grail]

Gosh darn it

I wanted Mesa💔

[umbral compass]

Alpine better

Especially for higher ascents

[grim comet]

You cant just say perchance

[umbral compass]

You could have also just said Perchance

[south grail]

Stomp on a turt

[grim comet]

horrible opening

[restive dragon]

[south grail]

At least someone gets me❤️‍🩹

[lapis patio]

are there any ancients on todays climb?

[umbral compass]

Statues?

[restive dragon]

Ancient luggages

[slim sandal]

i don’t think so

[umbral compass]

I didn't see any at the shore

[true rose]

[umbral compass]

Good

[shy cargo]

sorry man i just got done playing but you can go to #🌲peak-lfg-vanilla to find people to play with !!

[umbral compass]

But yes that is it unless you find a new flare randomly

Ascent 5 is just items have more weight

6 is the night is cold

[shy cargo]

lowkey used a bunch of pitons and uhhhh i think i went from the right uhhh thats all i remember

sometimes had to brute force through the poison shit

[umbral compass]

Once you deal with the increase weight and stamina

You ll realize how easy it was before

[slim sandal]

tyy i’ll pray for pitons

[umbral compass]

CAUSE I CAN'T GET PAST TROPICS AND I FEEL BAD ABOUT IT

[slim sandal]

i’m on the regular difficulty and only got past it once today 😭 tbf i’ve only been playing peak for about a week now

[charred current]

helloooo chat

[umbral compass]

IMAGINE PLAYING PEAK ON PEAK

[shy cargo]

somehow im way worse at peak when playing with friends . like this was on tenderfoot today LMAO

[umbral compass]

My mom warned me about guys like you

[charred current]

HUH

[umbral compass]

That is a canon event. Alone we lock in

[umbral compass]

See! You are proving momma right

[slim sandal]

my friends always steal all the items before i can get them

[charred current]

EX PLAINNN

also where is the lfg

I have not played for like 2 months

[umbral compass]

#🌲peak-lfg-vanilla

[shy cargo]

violet always takes the backpack from me and runs off and im like . girl im better at the game than you get back here

[umbral compass]

You already know what you have done johnny

[spark wren]

Is the gourmand badge bugged?

[umbral compass]

Don't think so

[charred current]

tyvm

[grim comet]

no its gourmand

[spark wren]

Just completed the run and didn't get the achievement

[charred current]

Finally time to get back to peak

[shy cargo]

did you both cook and eat them ? i got the achievement fine which is strange

[charred current]

have missed it (not)

[spark wren]

Yeah cooked everything and also did the leave no trace but that didn't track either

[umbral compass]

You are welcome. Jonathan

[spark wren]

I assumed it's because I used the alpine pitons

[charred current]

[shy cargo]

nah you shouldve gotten it . thats strange

[spark wren]

That's extremely sad

[shy cargo]

peak needed to nerf you

[umbral compass]

Your pfp reminds me of beast boy

[spark wren]

Round 2 I guess

[umbral compass]

Now I like you

[spark wren]

Nerf this

[umbral compass]

How did bingbong achieve this build

[shy cargo]

its a close up of my ugly scout thing but honestly i can see it LMAO

[umbral compass]

I mean at least you don't look basic

[versed rivet]

holy crap current map is so brutal today (this is A7)

[rare willow]

todays seed is so cheeks why are the tropics built like that bruh

[umbral compass]

I want to beat the tropics today since it is trash

Yes I like to torture myself

[shy cargo]

it is pretty bad

though it is pretty to look at purple

[umbral compass]

I want to beat it at ascent 6

And gaze down upon you puny commoners

[shy cargo]

i will get up to ascent 7 some day and look down at you !!!

[umbral compass]

What if we look down at each other

[quick hearth]

asc7 wont get you any credit here, beat some #1414438476035653642 or https://discord.com/channels/1368870708335083650/1421130168340189246, specifically pyro coconuts then you can show off

[shy cargo]

okay.............walks away sadly crying

[rapid crescent]

guys todays rotation is extremly hard man

i failed 5 times with a friend

[versed rivet]

yea

[umbral compass]

The only credit I care about is the one I give myself

Some of these seem like straight up torture

[versed rivet]

well that is a good perspective to think about

[quick hearth]

good on you then!

[shy cargo]

this is pissing me off i need Five more badges . i am impatiently waiting for my friends to help me badge hunt since i cant get any of the ones left alone

[umbral compass]

Do the more ascent mods count

[rapid crescent]

when you beat ascent 7 what do you get?

[umbral compass]

Those ones I would try

[umbral compass]

Goat status

[shy cargo]

goat sash and goat horns

[versed rivet]

goat headgear and goat sash

[rapid crescent]

Niiice

And after ascent 7 there is nothing new? no new challenge?

[umbral compass]

I am hunting ascents to delay badge hunting

[umbral compass]

There is a mode that adds 13 more ascents

[rapid crescent]

in the vanilla?

[umbral compass]

No like a mod

[rapid crescent]

oh

[meager kestrel]

hallow willow

[umbral compass]

It is a good way to challenge yourself

[rapid crescent]

so the only real challenges after asc7 are mods in general

[quick hearth]

not in the challenges since none of them require mods, but yea i think thatd get some claps from this chat regardless

[quick hearth]

hallo!

[meager kestrel]

double u

[umbral compass]

Will you be proud of me if I do it

[versed rivet]

uu

[rapid crescent]

did all of you guys already get to ascent 7?

[quick hearth]

yes ofc

[umbral compass]

I am at 6 all solo tho

[meager kestrel]

lmao Willow suddenly adopted a boi 😂

[umbral compass]

That was all the motivation I need

[quick hearth]

i did it once and am never doing it again LOL

[umbral compass]

Thank you for giving my life purpose

[quick hearth]

[shy cargo]

im gonna start ascent 4 tomorrow solo . im getting there

[rapid crescent]

[quick hearth]

u got this choco go beat the mountain

[quick hearth]

[rapid crescent]

[umbral compass]

It will take some time but I won't forget

[rapid crescent]

or maybe ill play silent hill 2

[umbral compass]

Imma hunt it down hard in the holiday season

[versed rivet]

my first one was me being carried. but i do a7 soloes occasionally now and win those

[shy cargo]

lfg scares me i only play with people i know LMAO

[quick hearth]

your always welcome to ping me when you do it

[rapid crescent]

nice

[umbral compass]

Okie

[rapid crescent]

but the game gets much updates yeah?

[shy cargo]

they Just patched some of my strategies

[rapid crescent]

hahahha

[umbral compass]

But I don't know anyone

[low horizon]

watching the flare bearer be stupid and die, but i gotta get in there anyway cause flare

[umbral compass]

My friend plays peak once in a blue moon

[versed rivet]

this is my todays a7 run lol. I'm gonna release the full run on the youtube again soon

[shy cargo]

violet always gets scoutmastered when she goes ahead so our group's running joke is that she has a crush on the scoutmaster LMAO

[vestal cosmos]

That was me one time

[low horizon]

sheesh you were way faster than i, i did die at alpines (checkpoint), but still

[vestal cosmos]

We all forgot about it until we made it to the top

I was cannibalized as penance

[low horizon]

took me 55

[shy cargo]

scream very loudly and the helicopter will still hear you trust me

[versed rivet]

got lucky with rescue claws, and i kinda made full use of the extra energy from honeycombs and yellow winterberry

[void nexus]

Is it mesa/roots today

[umbral compass]

How do y'all beat ascent 7 this fast

[shy cargo]

neither 💔

[void nexus]

I’m down for og biomes

[umbral compass]

I spend 20 minutes on the shore to farm luggages and skip the night

[low horizon]

Only found ONE, and left it cause i got early bone mode. Ignoring night was too hard to pass up lol

[versed rivet]

just experience and techs

[low horizon]

Didnt find bees either, doh

[umbral compass]

I should just watch people beating it to learn

[versed rivet]

i got a cure all but i made so much mistakes on the tropics so its used up within 5 mins of my time, the rest is just anti cannons which i couldnt even use XD (Leave no trace run baby)

[umbral compass]

I do it slow and steady tho

[low horizon]

yeah after that all i got was lanterns and cure all, like, dude, im a skeleton, if i get hurt im ded, gimme TOOLS

Hell, id take an anti rope cannon

[quick hearth]

day is about 5 mins, i always speedrun shore since you dont really need anything for it regardless of ascent and use the campfire to get through night 1 to save the lantern. lil trick tho, assuming you have little hunger, you can just take a little nap for the night it gives like 2 ticks of cold beyond what your bar can handle lol

[umbral compass]

A wise man once said: once you turn into a skeleton, the first thing you do is throw away the lantern that helped you go through the cold and lonely nights

[low horizon]

Actually, night is exactly 100

[versed rivet]

hahaha, I was being stubborn and decided not to use any tools that destroys leave no trace achievement

[umbral compass]

I just farm luggages and coconuts and go back to the plane to use the flame then go back to climbing

[low horizon]

My death was from being stubborn and trying the alpine cave (def not the way today)

[shy cargo]

i got two scoutmaster's bugles in the same run yesterday and i was like . okay . i Dont need those i'd much rather have an item that doesnt harm me thanks

what are the chances LMAO

[umbral compass]

SUMMON 2 SCOUT MASTERS

[low horizon]

about 1 in a million

[quick hearth]

ah even better- i remembered having a few extra ticks of cold but could totally be wrong there i dont know the actual amt lol

i think the scoutmaster wants to see you...

[umbral compass]

That is because you get hungry

So it usually takes more than the bar

[shy cargo]

ive never broken rule 0 in my life i think he wants to give me a congratulations

[umbral compass]

Me too

[versed rivet]

i did went to the mid to go to the right side of the map

[umbral compass]

I never abandon myself

[shy cargo]

truth nuke

[deft falcon]

Today's ascent 3 run that actually went way better than I thought it would despite me taking damage in stupid ways a few times 😭

[quick hearth]

tru

[low horizon]

With a buncha lollipops i managed left to middle kinda, but took a billion items, wouldnt recommend

[quick hearth]

an achievement in celebration!

[floral musk]

hey does anybody kno0w how i use one of the links in the #🌲peak-lfg-vanilla chat?

[umbral compass]

BEAT ASCENT 4 NOW OR YOU ARE NOT A PRO GAMER

[shy cargo]

the thing is . i got a scoutmaster's bugle the day before that and used it for the achievement LMAO

[deft falcon]

I've done ascent 4 before but I could do it again

[quick hearth]

just copy paste it into your browser. if nothing happens the lobby is full

[umbral compass]

DO IT! LISTEN TO THE VOICES IN YOUR HEAD

[floral musk]

i appreciate it

[quick hearth]

OH LMFAO he just really really likes you!

[shy cargo]

hes my best friend he knows i would never leave him behind if i was one of his scouts

[deft falcon]

Aight I'll listen to the voices LMAO

[umbral compass]

YOU BETTERRR

[shy cargo]

just looking at this is so funny to me Yes i have two what about it is there a problem

[umbral compass]

That you don't have 3

[quick hearth]

it looks like you have the item spawner mod 😭

[shy cargo]

True . i have to beat the odds again

[deft falcon]

I had like 3 Pandora's Lunchboxes in my A3 run, the RNG was really frickin weird today

[floral musk]

summon both and make them fight over you

[umbral compass]

You were chosen by the gods

[harsh light]

How are yall doing ascents on today’s map? I barely made it through on peak td

[shy cargo]

i tried running One peak mod and my computer crashed LMAO i wish i could have a mod

[deft falcon]

I guess cause wtf

[umbral compass]

I just beat ascent 8

It was like easy
You had this exclusive biome

[shy cargo]

the biome is called the toots and the danger is sulfuric acid clouds

[versed rivet]

i like double jumping into double lunging

[shy cargo]

bros a parkour genius

[umbral compass]

Did you see the crystal cave biome

[versed rivet]

absolute cinema

[autumn nebula]

so good brother

[slender quail]

hi

[little pagoda]

Hello i'm new to peak and i want to know if there's downside in playing the game in tenderfoot, like not being able to get badges/achievements?

[versed rivet]

no downsides, just easy mode

[soft prism]

#lfg-rules

[buoyant quartz]

I really liked the map today

[umbral compass]

You lose aura

[little pagoda]

And is there anything special i'll get if i completed the game in peak mod?

[umbral compass]

You unlock ascents

[grim comet]

just a hungry

[umbral compass]

I can finally play one round of peak

[cunning edge]

there is one badge that is peak or higher exclusive

[versed rivet]

Other colored Sashes and Ascents which is basically a higher difficulty where the number of Ascent determines the number of modifiers you have to deal with, Ascent 7 being the hardest with 7 difficulty modifiers (or Ascent 6 if solo)

if you do however complete the A7, youll also get the goat horn accessory as a reward

[little pagoda]

Cool thank you for your help

[shell jay]

no badges are ascent exclusive

Fixed an issue where unpocketable items (Mandrakes, Scorpions, etc) could be pocketed while climbing under certain circumstances.
I was wondering when they'd fix this

[soft prism]

current hot topic

[shell jay]

it's obvs a bug.
y'all cried when they re implimented cannon glitch. Guess oyu gotta @ the devs

"there are dozens of us"

[soft prism]

wheres that quote coming from

also last time i checked they made bugs into features

[grim comet]

tbh, using the rope glitch was pretty dumb with mandrakes and dynamite and whatnot

[shy cargo]

zombies cant spawn in tenderfoot so that badge technically

[versed rivet]

Im gonna miss that beehive pocketing tho

[grim comet]

use actual skill to get honey

[soft prism]

its a niche tech, but when one tech is removed more can follow

[soft prism]

this one is just bait lol

[shell jay]

just being silly
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKie-vgUGdI

[young pasture]

would it be faster to drink milk, then cook a cannon to enter a new biome, or climb down normally?

[cunning edge]

Would’ve gotten leave no trace today if I want going for knot tying

[grim comet]

im just not surprised that it was removed, it was pretty cheap in some way

[shell jay]

yeah, i figured they were goin to fix it sooner

[grim comet]

and not really in a cool way like cactus ball launches

[soft prism]

i mean drinking the milk and jumping down is probably more efficient i imagine

[shell jay]

If y'all have VR play Into The Radius. I'm finally checking out ITR2, 1 was great.

[soft prism]

tech isn't always cool tho, it wasn't even used in most scenarios unless doing challenges with it, its mostly the precedent it sets for other tech that are used a lot more

[grim comet]

i wouldnt be that concerned about the other ones

unless they're invalidating a part of the game

still dumb that they kept the cannon glitch

[umbral compass]

WHO SAID THAT WAS AN ISSUE

I was relying on that for doing the badge

[quick hearth]

you can still do it by turning off vfx volume.. but like using rope tech was cooler smh

[grim comet]

i did it without using rope tech or even the volume thing

or even a portable stove

dont know i managed that

[slim sail]

does this game have any match making or do i have to find other who have it or add them?

[covert mason]

im looking for 2 others rn for a full party

[soft prism]

#lfg-rules

[soft prism]

#lfg-rules

[quartz trail]

Thnks

[covert mason]

i am confusion, did I break a rule?

[soft prism]

if ur looking for ppl to join you, use #🌲peak-lfg-vanilla please

[covert mason]

oh I thought thats what this was my b

[versed rivet]

just lower the cannon straight directly to a platform. 90% of the time doing so is safe

milk can still be used as a safety measure tho

[loud haven]

Today's map rotation seems pretty decent. Capybara pool is easy to find but haven't managed to search any beehives on tropics island

I died at caldera today cuz of my silly decision making lmao

I still don't get the purpose of napberry. Managed to pick it up not long ago. Anyone can explain please?

[umbral compass]

I learned skeletons are made of glass

[half veldt]

Eating it will remove all status effects except Curse, but replaces the entire stamina bar with Drowsy in the process, knocking the player out for a time until gradually fading away.

[hexed crescent]

ey

cant find a single person doing 13+

[loud haven]

Thx!

Dang-

[crystal shoal]

how do i get lvl1 for lfg?

[soft prism]

3 messages 1 message per minute

[crystal shoal]

ok thx

[loud haven]

Even with good tools?

[loud haven]

Yeap, but not as hard as previous tropics map imo

[balmy glacier]

seemed pretty easy to me

no tools

[loud haven]

I haven't reached kiln yet cuz I died at caldera over stupid decision from me 💀

[crystal shoal]

im not understanding anything im reading rn lol

[loud haven]

No worries lol, we vibin

[balmy glacier]

the kiln yesterday was terrible tbh

[crystal shoal]

havent played this game in a long while

[hexed hornet]

. daydreamer

[gilded patrol]

GUYS I HAVE FINALLY BEAT ASCENT 6 😭

[terse ruin]

is it allowed to ask for advice on the best route in here........ cus icl im struggling on the first level today for some reason?

[gilded patrol]

Yes

[terse ruin]

[gilded patrol]

Feel free to ask any advice regarding the game, this is what this channel for tbh

But for real tho you can't even get past shore?

[terse ruin]

yeah 😭 its been a few weeks-months since i played but i dont think thats an excuse for shore fuckin me up rn

[versed rivet]

shore is a bit on a more difficult side today

[gilded patrol]

Not really

It took me only five minutes as usual

[terse ruin]

it does seem that way and im playing with a friend whos never played before so i was hoping for an easier first level LOL

[gilded patrol]

Just start off from the left side and find those staircase-like elevations

Don't go for big climbs

If you're doing big climbs then you're on the wrong path

[terse ruin]

ill try that now this is like our third try on the left side LOL

[gilded patrol]

Actually there's not rly a certain path for this level today since I used multiple different routes but the common thing is that I only take small elevations

Yes you may argue that it's taking more time but at least it's better than using up all your energy and couldn't make it

This advice also applies for other levels including kiln

[terse ruin]

ill try left again but we keep getting stuck at dead ends

[gilded patrol]

Yeah maybe don't hesitate to reroute

Sometimes climbing down will lead you to a better path

[terse ruin]

idk im thinking the problem is coming from hesitating to risk higher climbs atp

think im doubting the stamina we have

[gilded patrol]

Not really tho, I haven't gone for higher climbs today

You need to also identify whether the climb is worth the try

If it looks too far up then just go for alternatives that are much safer

And lemme tell you one thing

If you are still struggling with this level then forget about all the others

This level is the most simple and shortest among the other levels as of today

[frank yoke]

ngl i do NOT like today's seed 😭

[warm island]

anyone know what todays map is like

[deft falcon]

Well according to everyone it's pretty ass today 😭

[warm island]

dang, is the roots still avalibe on map rn 🤔 i just joined the server today and as i read the rules, i need to level up to 1 to find a game

[deft falcon]

It's Tropics/Alpine today, not sure when Roots will be in again

It's also purple tropics so there's a lot of poison in it lmao

[urban wolf]

We've got #1445185964346445874 so you can check when whatever biome is present

[deft falcon]

I was trying to find that thread but I'm a blind ass bitch

[warm island]

what is snake beach!!!

should i fear?

[deft falcon]

I was told it's a variant that creates snake-like extrusions in the biome or whatever, my stupid ass thought they put snakes in the game LMFAOOOO

[warm island]

lol I also though it was actual snakes i was like what the heck game did i come back to, i was only on break for like a week

[deft falcon]

Real 😭

[warm island]

so snake like extrusions, does that mean a more rocky beach or something

[deft falcon]

That's essentially what it was lmao, I annoyingly fucked up the Shore badly on attempt 1 but then peaked on attempt 2

[tulip lodge]

More of a messy beach yeah

[warm island]

oh sounds fun

just reach level two in chat gonna try and join the lfg vanilla chat and see who is open

[tulip lodge]

Good luck then!

[deft falcon]

Lock in 🗣️

[dusty pendant]

hello

[urban wolf]

Have you joined it? You can #threadname

[urban wolf]

Level two? Level 1 should be enough

[deft falcon]

Now I have LMAO

[warm island]

it was just waiting to see what is open that is 18+

[urban wolf]

Good 🙏

[wind portal]

Map today is so great

[urban wolf]

Im ngl I only use it to skip mesa days even when I have morepeak 😭

[shell jay]

poyo tends to link the new thread
#1440165524859387955 message

the new map picker seems cool, havent used it yet

[deft falcon]

Man I know how to defeat you in truth or dare, all I gotta say is "I dare you to play on a Mesa day" LMFAOOO

[urban wolf]

I will if forced but god do I dread it 😭

[strong rivet]

I did so much Mesa yesterday, wanted to cry

[urban wolf]

Even with cactusball tech it makes me want to rip my skin off

[strong rivet]

Scout and I would have such good runs going then Mesa would pop up and ruin it D:

[soft prism]

We got mesa... so much

maybe like 2 alpines

[deft falcon]

The Mesa just wants a hug man 😔

[soft prism]

the saddest death was both of us being taken out by little cacti 😂

[strong rivet]

Sorry Mesa, you're just too tall and confusing. We love our short king maps

[meager kestrel]

suffering from success, I have skill issues on every maps now cause I only have play time for like 1-2 days per week 🫠

[warm island]

im gonna sound stupid but how do i join a link for the lfg steam thing 🤔

[meager kestrel]

copy paste them into your browser, if it doesn't work lobby is full

[shell jay]

I'd say that should be in #🤔faq but it wouldn't make any difference

[warm island]

thanks

[gray wagon]

i just got on for the first time since the roots biome came out

is it not the second mountain anymore?

[soft prism]

it rotates with tropics now, today's second biome is tropics

[gray wagon]

oh i see thank you!

[dusty pendant]

Guaranteed to be Roots tomorrow, tho, as this is the second tropics day in a row, tomorrow's either Roots>Alpine or Roots>Mesa

[green inlet]

tropics is easier than roots right

[dusty pendant]

That is the general consensus yes, Tropics can have some somewhat tricky climbs, but Roots just has so many more hazards that can end you

[green inlet]

facts

[misty shore]

yall are purple tropics and lava in the alpines a thing??

[errant narwhal]

They're both on today's map

[misty shore]

thx i thought it was some weird terrain bug

[errant narwhal]

Nope, just biome variants

[misty shore]

good to know

[eternal tendon]

Need some sprinkles of pink in tropics

[pearl crown]

We need a pretty rainbow tropics

[shell jay]

all tropics zombies are in the hawiian shirt

[pearl crown]

That would go so hard

[mellow hornet]

next update: Gay Biome 🏳️‍🌈

[shell jay]

but you can't leave out all the other acronyms

[soft prism]

those can be variants

[eternal tendon]

Rainbow after the rain

[errant narwhal]

Conch variant

[pearl crown]

Can we get conch hell shore

[pearl crown]

We should get some peak variants I think a rainbow would work there

[shell jay]

make it snakes but huge piles of conch

[eternal tendon]

It's raining conches today

[pearl crown]

[dusty pendant]

It rains conches that can make you rag doll if they hit you, that'd be fun

[pearl crown]

Sounds like the shit people do in the normandy beach VC

[green inlet]

would be so funny on april fools day

[soft prism]

shell shock shore

[eternal tendon]

That being said, when are you doing scout delivery service on steroids?

[eternal tendon]

I feel like that should be a challenge

Bring 8 conches to the peak 😂

[meager kestrel]

Liam would be proud xd

[eternal tendon]

I know

[soft prism]

you can only climb where shells land when thrown

backpack throws banned except in kiln

[eternal tendon]

Only 1 backpack allowed 🤔

[soft prism]

might be tough depending on the kiln generation

imagine wind hitting when mid-throw

[eternal tendon]

Wind in the kiln?

[meager kestrel]

the territory shell throwing 😂

[soft prism]

nah roots and alps

tho maybe keeping it in one biome makes more sense with calling it shell shock shore

[eternal tendon]

Shell shock shots

[pearl crown]

Never

[soft prism]

When are you doing Bee Care Full- oh wait 🥀

#lfg-rules

[pearl crown]

[solar moon]

is it roots today?

[shell jay]

https://discord.com/channels/1368870708335083650/1445185964346445874

[stone spade]

is it mesa today?

[hollow mason]

alpine

[eternal tendon]

If only you were fast enough 🥀

[pearl crown]

I was gonna do it eventuallyyyyyyyy

Also your latest challenge might be one of the hardest ones you've made, at least off first impressions

[peak quartz]

peak

[tulip lodge]

Yeah, especially the last part
7 eggs is crazy

[eternal tendon]

Just find 3 nest-

[tulip lodge]

Rng, and there's only one by nest

[eternal tendon]

Yeah

Though if you play a seed with 4 nests, you're guaranteed at least 4

So who knows 🤔

I wanna make a workaround but that would ruin the idea of the challenge (like what happened with 7t7t)

[tulip lodge]

And after that you would still have to climb the kiln hoping you get food in luggages

[eternal tendon]

Just go faest xp

[pearl crown]

I'm actually personally more concerned about tropics and alps/mesa, since you have to get to the campfire before night since you can't take any heating items, and you sill have to hunt for 7 of the item

[tulip lodge]

Tropics would be okay with scorchberries but yeah I see the concern in mesa or alpine

[eternal tendon]

I mean, I didn't say you can't put them down, right?

[soft prism]

alps should be easy with geysers

[eternal tendon]

Alpine is more generous with heat items, but mesa is just ass

[pearl crown]

Ah, I understood the challenge as you can only use the items specified in the challenge

That makes it easier

[tulip lodge]

You still gotta make it to the top with full inventory of things

[eternal tendon]

Lmao

[tulip lodge]

So if you're unlucky and don't have some atop the biome it's over

[soft prism]

the hardest is still the cacti movement only imo

[finite harbor]

i cant play peak

my pc is fcking trash it cant even run roblox for 1 min

[pearl crown]

Honestly sounds like a huge skill issue

My pet potato runs peak

[pearl crown]

This is very true

[tulip lodge]

I mean my device couldn't run it more than 40 fps lowest graphics before letting go of windows 11 where it doubled FPS with medium graphics xD

[pearl crown]

Getting rid of windows 11 boosted it that much??

[tulip lodge]

Yup

[soft prism]

Oh nah, if u cant even run roblox pack it up bro that pc is DOGshit

[pearl crown]

That's insane

[finite harbor]

windows 11 btw

[tulip lodge]

Absolutely no regrets
Even if trying to do things is a bit complicated, eventually got the hang of it

[pearl crown]

Fair enough

I'm still on windows 10 atm and that makes me glad I've stayed

[soft prism]

Bruh i used to run that shit on a crusty old beat up overheating ipod idk what pc you got lmao

[tulip lodge]

Have you tried switching to something else?

[soft prism]

Shit gave me degree burns

[pearl crown]

My gfs integrated graphics uni work laptop can run peak 😭

[finite harbor]

it worked when it was new

[tulip lodge]

I'm pretty sure that if your computer is working on windows 11 that it can play peak

[finite harbor]

yeah it lags on everything

[tulip lodge]

If it doesn't it's probably because windows 11 is crap

[finite harbor]

might be cause of my mod manager

i cant see the biggest file in my pc cause it wont load

[tulip lodge]

Haven't played peak on windows 11 with mods, but now with mods it's 60 FPS on medium graphics

Issue is that if you want to switch,you'll have to delete everything

[rose belfry]

Yo why is peak dead rn

[odd tree]

???

Dead?

[rose belfry]

Yeah

[rigid mist]

Average JoJo fan

[pearl crown]

All JoJo fans are below average

[hardy crest]

What Jojo fan could have done to you for you to don't like them? They just like watching funny men do poses

[rigid mist]

I'm a JoJo fan. They've done a lot

[pearl crown]

I am also a JoJo fan and I agree that they have done a lot

Woohoo level 30

[plain widget]

how long does it take to reach lvl 1 here?

[meager kestrel]

less than two weeks

you got it tho

[plain widget]

yeah it seems like i just did😭

[vale kelp]

а хули лава

[twin ocean]

Personally think they should un-nerf the milk slightly but make it only cookable beyond to a certain point since i understand how op it is

[eternal tendon]

Until it gets patched-

Fake fan rip

[shell jay]

[rose belfry]

[shell jay]

shit was crazy

[rigid mist]

Most criminal JoJo yet and still no arrest somehow 💔 we'll see how long this lasts

[rose belfry]

[shell jay]

jesus that was supposed to be so far off it was meant to be comical

[rigid mist]

Current main JoJo is a drug dealer, murderer, self-admitted psychopath, and more lmao

Hasn't been this bad since the one who became the boss of the Italian mafia

[shell jay]

well it turns out im a jojo writer in disguise

[rigid mist]

Real

[thick bay]

hey guys I don’t have discord on pc can anyone help me win, I’ve got no mic tho

[rose belfry]

Side topic what the hell is your pfp

[crisp brook]

ascent 5 :)

time of one hour, 2 minutes

thought the cold nights would suck more

i think i might be able to manage ascent 6 and 7

the increased stamina cost id definetly going to be the roughest part

[shell jay]

be more picky with your pack

[pearl crown]

You can manage it for sure

[shell jay]

check piano's guides if you want some tech

[crisp brook]

a big part will just be my instincts when it comes to climbs

[shell jay]

yeah, routing matters in the higher ascents

[crisp brook]

i forget, but if i did ascent 7 by joining someone id also get the reward for ascent 6 right?

[shell jay]

yes

you can get 7 while having never peaked if you join a 7 lobbby

and by extension every other one

[crisp brook]

sick, will probably want to, for the simple sake of them having no difference when done solo

[shell jay]

lots of asc7 lobbies in lfg

[crisp brook]

yeah i imagine

[eternal tendon]

I was forced to upgrade to win11 three times and all three times I reverted to win10 because shit can't run peak

[tulip lodge]

Decided to off windows for good myself

[shell jay]

as much as I hate win11, I have not had any performance problems.
3700x/3080

[ionic valley]

They cant possibly suck more

Especially when it's alpines, makes it even worse

[crisp brook]

i thought they were open space blizzard levels of cold before running ascent 5

[ionic valley]

Nah its a full bar across the night

[crisp brook]

yeah, which aint nearly as bad as i expected

[ionic valley]

Just enough to not disappear unless you have a lantern or a friend

[pearl crown]

Tbh you should still have a full lantern in alps, and the luggages have pretty common heatpack drops which will keep you safe for a while night

[shell jay]

maybe i judt dont loot goblin enough in alpine, but i rarely see heat packs. probs just rng

[pearl crown]

Huh, I guess it depends how many you open, but I pretty reliably find at least 1 if I open 4 or 5 luggages

Depends on how many you find I suppose

[crisp brook]

bell curves make the improbable still quite possible

ive definetly had runs where i got a heat pack in just about every luggage, and some where i got one

[pearl crown]

Oh yeah for sure

[shell jay]

alps loves giving me stoves -_-

[pearl crown]

Stoves are great though for a5+

[crisp brook]

time to cook up some yellow winterberries for all the stamina and food you could dream of

[shell jay]

I tend to climb interior for alps

so wind doesn't bother me much

[crisp brook]

still useful for tanking cold from the night or the ice

[strong rivet]

Wind only bothers me on those pesky randomized terrain seeds 🙁

[crisp brook]

just get some first degree burns :)

[pearl crown]

I pray for a book of bones from one of the statues before it and if I don't get one I bite a chunk out of my desk

[strong rivet]

Note to self, a desk made of cheese would be the perfect Christmas present for Nugget

[crisp brook]

So real

[stuck cloak]

cheese?

[crisp brook]

Book of bones is probably the best item

A close second being pitons

[pearl crown]

I would love that so much

[pearl crown]

My personal top 3 would be Rescue claw, book of bones, and then rope spool

[strong rivet]

Anti rope spool, rope spool, claw (single player), otherwise lollipop

[shell jay]

Scout Cookies, Scout Cookies, Scout Cookies,
(yum)

[crisp brook]

For solo I agree on rescue claw

[pearl crown]

O I forgot about anti rope spool

[crisp brook]

Book of Bones, Piton, chain launcher, rescue claw on solo

The free stamina restore effectively doubling climbing distance for you and anyone following you is so good imo

[versed rivet]

Id made lots of adjustments just so my laptops win11 can look like win10

[crisp brook]

My inner Linux user fights me like an inner demon when I hear a mention of windows

[versed rivet]

i didnt feel like going to linux since i don't have an extra gadget to experiment on

[crisp brook]

Dual boot :)

[stuck cloak]

can you even run peak on linux

[crisp brook]

Yes, pretty well

[versed rivet]

Steam deck can play PEAK

so definitely

[atomic yoke]

what is your opinion on linux mint? im thinkingof getting it on my laptop

[stuck cloak]

i installed linux and the next day it was just gone like no longer on my disk

[versed rivet]

i heard linux is only ideal for amd stuff. Nvidia are likely to still experience lower performance i think

[shell jay]

it's fine, its meh because it's based on ubuntu rather than debian (ubuntu's base).

[crisp brook]

It’s good, on some level every distro is the same, only differences are really package managers and desktop environments

So mint is a good starter choice coming from windows, pop os is also a good choice

[atomic yoke]

okk thanks guys ^^

[shell jay]

mint is a great way to get into linux.
dont be afraid to try things.

[crisp brook]

Nvidia has pain points when it comes to some special features and their support for up and coming tech, but it’s gotten pretty good

Performance wise it’s still quite comparable to windows and rarely performs better

[atomic yoke]

once its christmas i‘ll have the time and try it thxx

[versed rivet]

for now I'm just waiting for a time where linux can pretty do anything windows can. I'm pretty busy with current College year and the next

[crisp brook]

But yes, AMD is a flawless experience, whereas nvidia requires moderate elbow grease

[shell jay]

otherwise bazzite (based on fedora) though it is immutable IIRC, that may be a pro or a con for you.

[stuck cloak]

i rlly wanted to play destiny 2 on linux but ofcourse the antihacking thingy thinks the steam compatibility thing is like idk

[versed rivet]

immutable by that you means?

[shell jay]

that is now. unless you need adobe or solidworks or somethign very specific
or kernel level anticheat :/

[crisp brook]

Largely can, the list of things you can do is quite short

[shell jay]

IMO dual boot is still the way in 2025, but you rarely need your windws partition.

[crisp brook]

Can’t break it

[mossy yoke]

some of the more popular games already support linux to some extent

[crisp brook]

It will not let you break it unless you really really try

[stuck cloak]

roblox on linux was PAIN

[versed rivet]

essentially kinda like a closed source conpared to apple

[crisp brook]

Mutable distros will not stop you from doing whatever you damn well want

[pearl crown]

Heya Poyo

[mossy yoke]

here's one of the websites you can check to see how the game runs on linux
https://areweanticheatyet.com/

additionally, proton made gaming on linux much more mainstream, which is a great step towards YoLoD

[shell jay]

4u

[mossy yoke]

?

[crisp brook]

Also worth mentioning proton.db and pcgamingwiki

[shell jay]

because of the map schedule

[versed rivet]

pc gaming wiki is based

[mossy yoke]

i havent climb those mountains yet

[shell jay]

just being silly

[crisp brook]

Good utilities for getting games to work at or above windows performance

[shell jay]

feels good to be back at my own desk

[stuck cloak]

whose desk were you on before

[shell jay]

I wasnt

[mossy yoke]

yeah, its amazing how much yoy can game on older machines thanks to those

[crisp brook]

Whenever I grab a game I always check both to squeeze out convenience and performance

One huge benefit to Linux y’all should know

[silver drum]

Does Tropics count as Jungle?

[stuck cloak]

i cant even play valorant on windows 11

[mossy yoke]

yes, why do you ask?

[shell jay]

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

[crisp brook]

No weird apps that do nothing and hog resources, like nvidia geforce now, or Samsung magic garbage

[silver drum]

Nothing just wonder

[crisp brook]

Linux is crazy good at not wasting memory

[mossy yoke]

jungle was an internal name for tropic, until the roots update

[shell jay]

and storage space

my VR PC has a 500 GB SSD and it has 250GB of games and the rest is appdata and windows

i have like 30GB free

mostly windows

[crisp brook]

Linux being open source and not adware means you can axe everything you don’t need too

[shell jay]

fuckinf edge was using like 2GB.
I have NEVER used edge on that comp

except to DL another browser, as you do

[crisp brook]

Remember when they released edge for Linux for like a month?

One other huge gain on Linux is the decrease in shady software installation

[shell jay]

you mean your OS not spying on you out of the box?

[crisp brook]

I mean not needing to download software off websites

[mossy yoke]

linux is great for security and overall system administrating purposes. but if these words are new to someone, they will do more harm than good

[shell jay]

apple is laughing in the shadows.
though the last 5 yrs of steam hw survey show a decline in macOS (not surprising considering m silicon)

[crisp brook]

Since you install it all from your package manager

[shell jay]

meh.

[crisp brook]

Or you add stuff generally compiled from sauce which you can look at if you know the language

[shell jay]

i agree a package manager is probably the way to go in general, but i dont use one on windows

[mossy yoke]

right, but your general computer user has never learned how to read any code

[shell jay]

i know i have winget and choclatey installed

[crisp brook]

Yep, still good to see the source code, means other people can look at it

[mossy yoke]

that is true

[shell jay]

security != obscurity

[crisp brook]

Anywho this chat is about peak

The only thing that peak has an issue with on Linux is Wayland

[shell jay]

once soneone chimes in about peak, until then FOSS4LYFE

[crisp brook]

It seems to perform more rockily under Wayland

[mossy yoke]

interesting

thats an interesting piece of info

[shell jay]

does unity generally have a problem with wayland?

[crisp brook]

Yeah, my own experience as well as reviews on protondb attest to it

[mossy yoke]

afaik proton solves most of it

[shell jay]

makes sense

[crisp brook]

So it’s weird that peak still has problems really

For example PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 made the game freak the hell out, rapid black flickering

[shell jay]

fragmentation is the best/worst thing about linux. but this is not a revelation

my neckbeard just grew 3 sizes

[crisp brook]

In the words of bringus studios

OPTICAL MEDIA BAD

And this extends to classic hard drives

Even though they are magnetic not optical

[shell jay]

tape is still the long term backup media of choice of you're serious about it

[crisp brook]

Yeah

[shell jay]

i liken tape to optical because of speed

[crisp brook]

But largely ssds are just better than hard drives most of the time

But poor for long term reliability

[shell jay]

my $200 14TB HDDs would like a word with you

serverpartdeals.com

[crisp brook]

Most of the time is the operating phrase

If you need to store many things and don’t require bandwidth classic drives are great

[shell jay]

anyone I care about has their data backed up to that array, and then that's NOT BACKED UP TO BACKBLAZE WITH SOME DOKAN MAGIC NOT AT ALL

I understand why backblaze wants linux to only be on their buckets but it's one of the few things keeping a windows OS around for me

though once I upgrade the server then i can just VM that shit

[crisp brook]

I hope someone does some better testing for Wayland and Peak

Might effect frame rates and such but I can’t easily check, games runs worse than it should but I’m not sure the source

[shell jay]

ypu're smart enough, profile that shit

[crisp brook]

And don’t feel like messing with x11 on my rather fresh Nobara install

[crisp brook]

Perhaps

[shell jay]

i need to play with fedora, i have near 0 experience with it

just so used to debian

[crisp brook]

I learned that it’s low key pretty much the same experience wise

Swap .deb for .rpm and apt for dnf

[shell jay]

sounds about right

they use systemd?

[crisp brook]

Yeah

[shell jay]

well shit, maybe my next VM is fedora

NGL the LTT vid with linus (torvalds) saying he uses fedora got me interested.

[crisp brook]

Yeah it really works out of the box in a way that clearly many devs like

[crisp brook]

And thanks for mentioning it, didn’t know the vid came out

[shell jay]

it was alright.
i think they porbably saved the interesting (nerd) stuff for floatplane

[restive dragon]

[mint tundra]

whoever the goat was that did my ascent 7 run with me and crashed, i did it! thanks for the crazy run bro

how long until the main manu is all ads?

[plain lance]

2038 at worst

[shell jay]

did stam always regen when the menu is up? is this a new bug?

gonna sit for a bit and see if hunger ticks

it does

[eternal tendon]

hunger and tick in one sentence

its not the patch notes. its the datamined map rotations until they drop the next patch

[native moth]

hello humans

pardon me. allergies

[mint tundra]

the current maps are great for solos, if you need them do it before it's gone!

[cloud silo]

tropics is a pain tho

imo

[random sentinel]

guys

[mint tundra]

yeah the poison is annoying but you get lots of berries and i don't think it requires any equipment to clear

[random sentinel]

i have something to tell you

[native moth]

hello mate, its been a long time since i saw ya

[cloud silo]

no i mean the terrain generation. idm the poison (although it nearly killed me on my runs last night )

[random sentinel]

on my PE i saw a ball, there was a title on it

[random sentinel]

and the title said: "PEAK"

[mint tundra]

it's def the worst of them today for sure

[pearl crown]

Caldera the worst today for sure (I died to being impatient )
