ror2-console-discussion

[gray quarry]

Nah what

[abstract jackal]

(This dlc isn’t coming out)

[carmine shadow]

just doing my tri-monthly check has anything happened like. At All

[wicked leaf]

They still will do it again

[dire bane]

i think they do bc of all the lashback they got

[gray quarry]

I don’t really come in here either tbh.

[abstract jackal]

It’s Q3 is like halfway over and still no news

[tawny mango]

Big fatass facts

[tulip sleet]

Yeah.

[maiden musk]

I mean I’ll wait as long as it takes for sotv on consoles but holy shit it hurts to watch PC get a new character before we get sotv lmao

[frail girder]

I just want the dlc. Even if it's a buggy mess we will at least have new game breaking bugs

[tawny olive]

putting my discord username on my grave “send ror update info”

[fierce jacinth]

"Game breaking"

[gray quarry]

I really do pray for y’all 😭

[mossy lagoon]

Yes. Please.

[wicked leaf]

If they did, we would have gotten info on what's actually been done, instead of basically radio silence

[abstract jackal]

I can’t send you nothing sorry 😢

[quartz bay]

i do feel a bit bad for ps/xbox peeps because they wont even be able to play rorr day 1

[meager niche]

I already lost my mind once, I don't want it to happen to me again

[tawny mango]

You're really in your "I'll take something bad over nothing" era

[dire bane]

preston gave info

[gray quarry]

The cope is funny and sad to see

[mossy lagoon]

Just give us a shitty port we'll take anything at this point

[abstract jackal]

Monkeys paw

[frail girder]

Tons of items don't even work at all. That is definitely game breaking

[maiden musk]

Who the hell is we

[fierce jacinth]

"Unfortunately, whe decided to just delete our progress because whe had 1 bug"

[gray quarry]

💀

[tawny mango]

When we get a release I'll believe it

[tawny olive]

we have been getting blue balled for 2 years

[static magnet]

Sotv confirmed for year 2125‼‼‼

[ruby canopy]

It's a struggle out here bro

[fierce jacinth]

Yk what IDGAF

[tulip sleet]

Would everyone be okay with them just releasing the dlc now even if there were a few bugs?

[mossy lagoon]

Who isn't we? (Non console players)

[maiden musk]

I don’t want to play on an unplayable buggy garbage mess even if SOTV feels like it got announced seven thousand years ago

[tawny mango]

Fire Elites

[mossy lagoon]

Yes.

[fierce jacinth]

YO NO WAY

[wicked leaf]

ON GOD YES

[fierce jacinth]

Yes

[mossy lagoon]

Literally

[tulip sleet]

Like they could release rapid fire patches. If any bad bugs come up.

[tawny mango]

Yeah probably

[maiden musk]

If the bugs weren’t too severe I’d be fine with it

[dire bane]

if the only info that you see is info is the release date then you wont get any info obv.

[fierce jacinth]

Exactly , slowly but surely

[crude mesa]

Yes

[mossy lagoon]

SOTV JS OUT ON CONSOLE!! (Opening the game deletes your save data)

[tulip sleet]

AY GEARBOX YA HEAR THAT?! THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN!

[gray quarry]

It’s okay bro, it’ll come out soon

[abstract jackal]

All I want is a 50% discount on launch for a month

[meager niche]

see you tomorrow guys, I don't want to be part of today's coping section

[tawny mango]

Look dude, glad your copium is filled up, but 2 years of this with no tangible proof of progress doesn't exactly paint a pretty picture

[static magnet]

Now I can unlock gesture for the third time!

[gray quarry]

Calvin did you count today

[mossy lagoon]

(Nobody asked)

[meager niche]

Yes.

[fierce jacinth]

Atleast give us teaser 🙏

[abstract jackal]

I 100% think they’re gonna reset everyone’s progress somehow

[meager niche]

I didn't want your answer.

[mossy lagoon]

Yeah...

[fierce jacinth]

"Game breaking Glitch "

[tawny mango]

Armored Core VI will get a rougelike mode before SOTV hits consoles

[mossy lagoon]

Minor bug fr

[tawny mango]

Also everyone play ACVI

[ruby canopy]

Armored core already has that

Pretty sure it's a mod tho

[tawny mango]

Ye I mean officially

It would be interesting to maybe see that Battleroyale idea Miyazaki had in ACVI or VII

[ruby canopy]

Also tf2 got updated yesterday

[tawny mango]

Sure did

[sacred mulch]

Imagine knowing more back I new game in the same universe gets more updates and isn't even out yet

[frail girder]

Lol the one dev at TF2 can update the game faster than a whole dev team 💀💀💀

[ruby canopy]

Frfr

[tawny mango]

Like I said GB is just busy having horrible employee practices and culture to program anything

They're already working off of horrid crunch

[frail girder]

How old is tf2 again?

[ruby canopy]

What's a horrid crunch?

[tawny mango]

Crunch development time, rush jobs for investors essentially

[ruby canopy]

Oh

[sacred mulch]

Also doesn't matter if don't say shit to anyone at all

[tawny mango]

Oh for sure, ROR2 is not the GB cash cow

They can't slap Claptrap on the box

...well they could ig

[tawny mango]

It was released in 2007

So at least 16

[frail girder]

So basically the dlc hasn't released for 1/8th of tf2s lifetime?

That's pretty pathetic XD

[indigo wedge]

Now I know the answer to this but does anyone know when the dlc will release for us poor fellas

[tulip sleet]

Probably just in time for the sun to explode.

[indigo wedge]

That’s a shame, I was really hoping it to come out before the sun consumes earth :/

Wasnt the last update the one where we got bandit? And that was what? A year ago?

[frail girder]

Just play Deep Rock Galactic. Or another. Better roguelike. One actually worth your money

[frail girder]

2. Getting close to 3

[indigo wedge]

I unfortunately am stuck in constant loop of destiny 2

[frail girder]

Someone said 695 days awhile ago iirc

[indigo wedge]

Oh fuck

That a lot

[tulip sleet]

Don’t fear! hopefully your ancestors will be able to play a little bit before they’re burnt to a crisp!

[indigo wedge]

Fear I shan’t

[tulip sleet]

Actually tbh they probably gonna delay it to the heat death of the universe.

[indigo wedge]

I’ll expect EA to drop micro transactions by then

[stiff palm]

Os is it out yet

[tulip sleet]

Which will come out first? The Bible 2 or sotv?

[indigo wedge]

They 4 horseman would come first let alone the bible sequel

[frail girder]

That's a battle they'll both drag out long after the universe is gone.

[maiden musk]

my grandchildren might be able to play sotv on the ps9

[thick solstice]

Perghaps

[maiden musk]

I guess it’s nice to know we have some actual progress as described in pins but sheesh this wait is painful

[tulip sleet]

Pain.

[maiden musk]

i still like this game tho I just don’t play it very often because I know I’d get bored if I was grinding a game that didn’t change for 2 years

[vast bough]

I just want to snipe things

[maiden musk]

viend and railgunner both look so damn fun

and the void items

man…

[vast bough]

I'm tired of the only game where I can play a fun sniper is overwatch 2 and I'm horrible at it there atleast in sotv it'd only be myself I'm failing with poor aim

[tulip sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/peter-griffin-but-i-want-it-now-gif-26307521

I want viend now!

[maiden musk]

man… overwatch 2..

im not gonna say anything because I don’t want it to happen

but that put an idea in my head lmfao

[vast bough]

Ror3 for PC is gonna exist before sotv for console

[gray quarry]

Y’all really do deserve better

[maiden musk]

risk of rain returns 2 is gonna come before console sotv ngl ngl

[cinder zealot]

so true i love railgunner the vanilla risk of rain character

[tulip sleet]

Gaslighting at its finest.

[gray quarry]

I’m praying for you homie

[maiden musk]

SOTV is actually a PC mod

[cinder zealot]

now you're going to the Room

i'm alerting your nearest hospital about the need for a psychiatric hold

[sacred rose]

[tulip sleet]

They locked me in a room, a rubber room.

[zinc pollen]

Gups make me crazy.

[young gulch]

Crazy? I was crazy once.

[austere egret]

They locked me in a room, a rubber room

[gray quarry]

[tulip sleet]

A room with scavengers.

[young gulch]

Scavengers make me crazy.

Google lego piece 26047

[gray quarry]

I’m not very fond of gups

[mental raptor]

[tulip sleet]

They talked to me.

[young gulch]

Void makes me fiend up

[tulip sleet]

Told me horrible things.

[young gulch]

It never was real

It was all a lie

[zinc pollen]

[tulip sleet]

I feel like viend.

Like I’ve been trapped in an endless void for what’s seemed like eternity.

[young gulch]

I feel like I’ve been repeating the same day over and over with no end in sight

[tulip sleet]

This is a fate worse than death.

[young gulch]

I die over and over, but sometimes I escape.

But the escape is fake

It just brings me back to square one

[tulip sleet]

I dream of playing viend with my friends but it’s never real it’s just a dream.

[young gulch]

Is the dream even a dream

[zinc pollen]

NOT THE FNAF PIZZERIA SIMULATOR MONOLOG

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[young gulch]

SOTV was merely a ruse?!

[mental raptor]

If only it were true.

[tulip sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/family-guy-stewie-griffin-gone-crazy-insane-letter-l-gif-17135412

Oops sorry I made a family guy reference plz don’t ban me for committing cringe.

Anyways..

Why has god punished us in this way?

[young gulch]

All hail Preston

[tulip sleet]

Is Preston even a real person? Or is he just a made up persona that we all made up in our heads a desperate attempt to give our minds a sliver of hope?

[young gulch]

Preston is a beacon of hope, real or not

[stiff palm]

Y’all should i buy ROR2 on pc

[frank panther]

sweet mother of god

I made a monster

I don't do anything crew

[tulip sleet]

Ok fair point have a nice day.😉

[zinc pollen]

All hail the emperor!

[frank panther]

The programmers making the console versions are who you should send your love to

Also QA

[tulip sleet]

What are their names?

[wintry ivy]

You give us info you gave us hope you gave us stuff to live for

[frank panther]

QA are amazing

[tribal rover]

I huffed so much copium I had hope the ping was the console update

[young gulch]

But you are the messenger

[tribal rover]

What have you people done to me

[tulip sleet]

Shall we sacrifice a cow for them?

[frank panther]

naa

cows are too cute

[tribal rover]

Not yet

[wintry ivy]

A pig then

[young gulch]

A stegosaurus perhaps

[zinc pollen]

No they're cute too

[tribal rover]

Prepare the sacrificial ant, gentlemen

[zinc pollen]

Fire ant into the fire hole

[willow pilot]

Sacrifice a fire elite

[wintry ivy]

We shall sacrifice what ever Preston desires

[tribal rover]

Ok I can live with that sacrifice

[tulip sleet]

How about a copy of morbius on the ds?

[young gulch]

Blazing elites should be sacrificed permanently

[tribal rover]

And non-perfected lunar chimeras

[zinc pollen]

Five Mithrixes into the spiky nail pit to our saviors

[tulip sleet]

Yeah fair point I don’t think I could sacrifice a cow.

[wintry ivy]

Well what does our deity Preston desire

[zinc pollen]

Lord Preston The First, how shall we appease our lord

[frank panther]

look at that face, I want one as a pet

[tulip sleet]

Shall we burn down an orphanage for our dear Preston/the programmers working on the port/the qa ppl?

[frank panther]

no I don't, that'd be bad in my medium sized condo

[young gulch]

We’re gonna get u a pet

[wintry ivy]

We shall get one for you then my lord

[craggy cove]

Cool. New survivor but still no DLC on console

[frank panther]

oh please god no

rip

[zinc pollen]

You must understand, Preston alone, on the highest peak, is forging the console dlc by hammer and anvil; only his incredible strength can achieve this. He is our savior

[tulip sleet]

We shall all march on to a small farm and steal the cows for you my lord.

[zinc pollen]

Ten, no. Twenty for our lord

[craggy cove]

😐

[wintry ivy]

No thirty he deserves more then your lowly numbers

[zinc pollen]

You are correct, how could I insult him with such a dissapointing yield

[tulip sleet]

No! 50 cows for Preston!

[wintry ivy]

How many does our lord Preston require

[tulip sleet]

It’s the least we could give in return!

[young gulch]

For all the blood, sweat and tears he’s shed it’s only fair we give back to him

[zinc pollen]

No we are all wrong, we shall carve a castle out of the mountains for our lord, so he may create in peace

[wintry ivy]

Yes of course we shall carve all mountains

We shall carve his face into every one

[young gulch]

We shall make a farm so he can have as many cows as he desires

[wintry ivy]

Of course of course

[tulip sleet]

We shall carve his face into Mount Everest and we’ll name our first habitable we visit planet after him.

[zinc pollen]

We shall create a city in his name, and we shall be his loyal subjects

[wintry ivy]

No we shall name every habitable planet after him

[young gulch]

Planet Preston

[wintry ivy]

Even god

[frank panther]

y'all scare me sometimes

[tulip sleet]

Do you wish for more?

[frank panther]

hahhahaha

[young gulch]

We need more guys

[tulip sleet]

Whatever the ask we will give!

[young gulch]

He’s not appeased

[zinc pollen]

Prestonius I, Prestonius II, Prestonius III

[young gulch]

We shall expand to other universes of course!

And name them after our lord

[wintry ivy]

Not of god

Of every god

[tulip sleet]

Every being in the observable universe will know the name of Preston.

[young gulch]

Why stop there? Every being in the multiverse

[wintry ivy]

What ever Preston desires

[zinc pollen]

This is gonna be the Imperium Of Man, but for Preston

[dire bane]

The unobservable too

[zinc pollen]

We are his subjects, the arms in which will enact his creation

[tulip sleet]

The infinite cosmos will be under Preston’s command.

[zinc pollen]

The God in which decides and undecides the very ways of our existence. There is no higher being

[frank panther]

eyes, ears, brains

[tulip sleet]

We will call our new religion prestonology.

[zinc pollen]

We shall construct a temple for his worship

[wintry ivy]

Not religion new way of life

[young gulch]

But Preston you will have all the knowledge of the cosmos

Omniscient if u will

[zinc pollen]

The constitution to our continuation

[tulip sleet]

We will build a Time Machine so you can go back in time to the Big Bang and forge all things in the universe for only your hands could craft life itself.

[wintry ivy]

What ever Preston can imagine we shall do

[dire bane]

craft the dlc

Idk lmao

[zinc pollen]

His hands both gentle and stern, like a malleable steel, creates clearly and uniformly. Hands like Providence, mind like Mithrix, he shall create the one thing we yearn. Console DlC

[young gulch]

All hail Preston

[zinc pollen]

😭😭

[wintry ivy]

To praise our lord and savior Preston of course

[tulip sleet]

Do you question the power of his excellency?

[dire bane]

Paladin update!

[frank panther]

That is an extremely good question. Let me know if you find an answer

oh no

HE HAS JOINED THEM ALREADY

IT GROWS

[young gulch]

Don’t u see Preston, our influence is far and wide

[zinc pollen]

Every government will be run by Preston

Soon everyone will bow to you.

Rock and stone!

[ruby timber]

[frank panther]

She is way cooler than me

just to add a correction there

[ruby timber]

true, I was just bein nice

[wintry ivy]

We have not heard from her so Preston is better

[young gulch]

Preston is here

[zinc pollen]

Dual monarchy? Two crowns

[shrewd summit]

[white quarry]

The cult is pretty weird tbh

[dire bane]

Join us

[frank panther]

something has em rialed up today

[young gulch]

All hail Preston

[drowsy sluice]

We worship hope

[ruby timber]

I was in the preston cult before it was cool

[zinc pollen]

People are desperate 😭 Even as a PC person I sympathize

[white quarry]

Idk

[dire bane]

The ping did it

[white quarry]

Any benefits

[white quarry]

That got me

[young gulch]

This is my first day messaging after being on the discord for maybe like a year 💀

[dire bane]

It makes everyone active

[frank panther]

feelings mutual brother

[dire bane]

So yea

[wintry ivy]

DO NOT FORGET WHY WE ARE HERE BROTHERS AND SISTERS DO NOT FORGET OUR LORD DO NOT FORGET TO PRAISE PRESTON

[white quarry]

[dire bane]

[shrewd summit]

Was really hoping that ping was console news, lots of copium

[zinc pollen]

I follow but one God, Preston

[zinc pollen]

JOIN US IN PRAYER

[frank panther]

sorry friend

[dire bane]

Still a cool update for rorr imo

[shrewd summit]

I just wanna obliterate shit with rail gunner

[zinc pollen]

Everywhere I go, cults seem to rise up, I'm starting to feel this is no longer coincidence

[young gulch]

This is reminding me of a certain infection from a certain metroidvania

[mental raptor]

OUR LORD AND SAVIER PRESTON WE SHALL PRAY FOR HIM

[zinc pollen]

Completely agree

[wintry ivy]

ALL PRAISE PRESTON

[shrewd summit]

It’s really cool, too bad the game probably won’t get a console port, unless I’m extremely wrong

[wintry ivy]

PRESTON

[zinc pollen]

If we have anyone particularly artistically talented among us, perhaps we could produce a symbol to identify fellow believers

[dire bane]

In a certain kingdom

[white quarry]

Switch will

[wintry ivy]

It is Preston’s pfp

[shrewd summit]

Just sold my switch go figure

[young gulch]

Im an art student, look at my carrd I’ve got some example of my skill lol

[white quarry]

Nothing is confirmed for Xbox and PS officially but my guess is it’s probable

[dire bane]

Switch is getting one so other will prob come too but just a little after the realese on pc amd switch

[shrewd summit]

Time to buy an OLED so I Atleast get some new stuff

[zinc pollen]

Give me one moment, friend :)

[ruby timber]

its far from unlikely, the team talk about it all the time #ror2-discussion message

[zinc pollen]

Your work, it is wonderful. More than satisfactory for our cause

[shrewd summit]

I just figured it wasn’t gonna happen because we’re still waiting for SOTV, figured it’d be a lot to work on for gearbox since they do the console ports no

[ruby timber]

no, all returns stuff is being done in-house

including port(s)

[young gulch]

Aw thank you :D. Honestly I’m so bored it’d give me something to do if ur being serious lol

[white quarry]

That’s sounds hard

[wintry ivy]

Preston

[shrewd summit]

Makes sense then, hopefully a PlayStation/Xbox port comes then

[zinc pollen]

If you insist friend, we'd be more than excited

[dire bane]

Yea

[zinc pollen]

I'm sure eventually all of us will get to play it eventually. They're more than likely just trying to avoid overselling, as it often leads to dissapointment

[white quarry]

I wonder if hopoo will get much bigger

[zinc pollen]

So they're guaranteeing what they can, and getting to what they haven't completed down the line

[zinc pollen]

Do you think it could?

[white quarry]

Like are they happy with their current size or do they want to expand a little

[zinc pollen]

I actually wanted to ask something

[white quarry]

It’s possible, with that folio

[shrewd summit]

Fair enough, don’t want another RoR2 situation where we get promised something and then something doesn’t go right and it causes the entire game to be re-coded

[shrewd summit]

If it fits the budget it’s something they should look into, it would make it a lot easier to develop games

[zinc pollen]

So if I've heard correctly Hopoo games is going to be under Gearbox, but it will still have the same developers? I know that we are only speculating, but I feel you know more than me

[young gulch]

Yeah sure I’m down, got any ideas? If it’s for Preston it could be dwarf themed

[zinc pollen]

We may be getting a symbol for our cause soon, friend

[shrewd summit]

I assume it’s hard to find devs they like for the sort of games they make though

[wintry ivy]

What ever Preston desires

[frank panther]

naa, they aren't under GBX or anything. We've historically worked on ROR2 together but they are very much their own studio

[young gulch]

Well Preston if u had a symbol for a cult based off u what would u want it to look like?

[zinc pollen]

If I could give any specifications, I want it to be simple and recognizable. Sort of like the concept of a cross, simple but infinitely recognizable, even from a distance. We could keep the dwarf theme, certainly

[wintry ivy]

And a symbol idea

[zinc pollen]

So only the IP of ROR is going to gearbox, and Hopoo will likely pursue other projects?

[frank panther]

my one request is that the name makes extremely little sense

[zinc pollen]

Thank you for clarification by the way :)

[young gulch]

Ooo yes that sounds good

[wintry ivy]

When someone gives a good name let us know my lord

[shrewd summit]

Ngl I wish more game studios actually interacted with the community. I know it’s easier for Gearbox and Hopoo to do so here because it’s a smaller game but a lot of bigger company’s could benefit from it a lot lol

[frank panther]

cute bird-thing though

[shrewd summit]

A lot more transparency here than any other game discord I’m in, it’s nice to see

[young gulch]

I think maybe something related to the gearbox logo and Preston could work?

Like a beard with gear eyes?

[frank panther]

games are a whole buttload of work to make. It can be really hard to make time to chat with folks if your schedule is already brutal. I totally get it 😕

[zinc pollen]

Or perhaps a gear as the head with a beard?

Loving the ideas

[wintry ivy]

Does lord Preston approve

[young gulch]

Ooo yeah that could be cool as well

A gear and a beard sounds like 2 strong elements for a logo

[frank panther]

I'd heavily prefer if "Preston" was not in the name of this cult. 1) not sure I totally approve of this cult yet 2) I do very very very little of the work on getting Risk of Rain 2 in your hands. The programmers/QA are the real heroes here

[zinc pollen]

Hmm he does not approve

Back to the drawing board

[shrewd summit]

Fair enough, but even with a tight schedule working on something massive like you guys are with a completely new set of coding for ROR2 you guys still come chat, activision/the other studios that work on call of duty should do it a bit more just because games like that rely heavily on what the player-base thinks

Maybe with the Microsoft deal it’ll go back to listening to the community but who knows

[frank panther]

ya I think it's a lot easier for teams the size of Hopoo and us. @ruby timber and I both don't use the thinkin computer to make the video games.

[zinc pollen]

Perhaps we shall name our group, The Messenger's Guild, in respect to our lord's efforts

[ruby timber]

im the looks of the operation

[shrewd summit]

You guys came out and said there was hiccups causing the delay of ROR2s delays, the transparency is amazing in comparison to other studios

[zinc pollen]

I couldn't agree more

[wintry ivy]

Does the lord approve

[shrewd summit]

A lot of bigger companies would’ve just left us clueless on the state of the game

[zinc pollen]

Even if console edition has take an incredible amount of time, at least we have communications of the goings on

[young gulch]

Yeah the transparency has been great

[zinc pollen]

Not only for that, but for RORR as well

[frank panther]

def more down with this

[thin vale]

pog we just lost a 50 minute run because the hitscan bug happened and we couldnt deal damage

[zinc pollen]

I am delighted you take more of a liking to it :)

[shrewd summit]

This is why I’m fine waiting (don’t really have a choice) but it still keeps me interested and wanting to come back

[frank panther]

I enjoy that it could mean it's just sorta whoever is bringing the information

feels a lot better

[young gulch]

Hmm should the symbol represent more to do with the name of the group or Preston then?

[wintry ivy]

HE APPROVES EVERYONE

[zinc pollen]

You wanted us not to muddle your efforts and that of the development team. Both deserve praise, simply you are our patron saint, and offer us hope. However, I hope the team knows they have our support :)

[zinc pollen]

Perhaps both. The gear can stay, but maybe we could move away from the dwarf part. Or we could do it the other way around?

[frank panther]

honestly forgot my icon was even a dwarf

[young gulch]

A gear on a paper airplane maybe? Could represent whoever at gearbox is sending a message to us

[wintry ivy]

What does our lord think

[zinc pollen]

Oh I have a little idea from that

[shrewd summit]

I’m curious just because I haven’t paid much attention to ror2 lately but, is the next DLC waiting for the console fix to be done or is it just switching to RORR now

[young gulch]

That was my main inspiration for the symbol conceptually for me lol

[zinc pollen]

What if jt was a gear with a scroll dashed through it at an angle

[zinc pollen]

Waiting for the console fix

[shrewd summit]

Figured that was the case

[zinc pollen]

They don't want to shake the hornets nest too much by going forward with new dlc

[young gulch]

When u say dashed do u mean it’s just going through it?

[zinc pollen]

Correct!

Perhaps over the gear on the top and under on the bottom

[shrewd summit]

I wouldn’t even be mad if PC got DLCs and we kinda just stayed a bit behind, I just wanna see new content tbh

[young gulch]

Ooo yes I like that

What do u think Preston?

[zinc pollen]

Nah you shoulda seen when they did the everyone ping for RORR some people got randomly pissed for ROR2 console edition, when the two projects are being produced by two different entities

[shrewd summit]

I held off on most SOTV stuff till they said it wasn’t really known when console would come out

[wintry ivy]

Yes what does our lord think

[shrewd summit]

A lot of people lack critical thinking, idk how some fail to see that they’re being done by 2 separate studios

[zinc pollen]

Because it's and easy and cheap to be pissed

[shrewd summit]

Neither game would be finished if 1 company was doing both, it’d be hell

[frank panther]

https://tenor.com/view/great-good-gif-24557505

[wintry ivy]

HE APPROVES

[zinc pollen]

Absolutely horrid indeed

[young gulch]

YAY

[zinc pollen]

Can I offer one amendment to our organization?

[frank panther]

I get it, it can be hard to keep track of everything. People have lives and stuff. I mean, I don't have a life, but I'm told that other people totally do.

[zinc pollen]

True, but to be so upset about something that would be an otherwise minor part of their existence, and making an effort to show outrage to those devs and community members, be it right or wrong, is pretty unfair. Although, I'm happy you empathize with those who are upset, and truthfully, I don't entirely blame them

[shrewd summit]

Tbf if you have the time to get pissed off about a game not having an update announced at 4pm on a Thursday you probably have time to realize it’s 2 company’s working on 2 games

[young gulch]

Yeah it feels pretty inconsiderate to get so angry when developers are working on making sure the product is as good as it can be

[zinc pollen]

Exactly. As said I don't entirely blame them. It's been an egregious amount of time, and more and more devs of big games are turning out to be bery scummy, so I don't entirely blame them for their anger; although, it is often misplaced and achieves little

[young gulch]

Yes the wait has been frustrating to some although putting that onto the developers is only gonna make them more stressed out from the work they are trying to perfect, especially if it’s an indie studio the pressure builds up

[zinc pollen]

Exactly. It's good to hold people accountable, but there is quite the difference between holding someone accountable and lashing out

[young gulch]

Very true, we should hold developers who rush their games for a quick buck accountable but not lash out on developers still working on a product we haven’t seen ourselves yet

[spark tide]

I was pissed until I saw “Preston_GBX is typing” more often here

Terraria took years, it wasn’t as buggy but the same situation happened where a porting team got replaced. So I’m used to this

[young gulch]

It is a very comforting sight

[frank panther]

The squad is around, you can always @ us. the gearbox crew are all very cool and happy to help however we can.

[zinc pollen]

Well there is a bit of a difference here, since SOTV already exists, but it must be understood that it's not that it isn't happening, it's that it's simply taking long. Of course they've had to wait for far too long, but the port and fixes are coming

[zinc pollen]

We're happy you all are here! :]

[spark tide]

The day of the dlc is going to be a big “his name was Robert Paulson” moment.

Oh wait no we’ll go back to Hail when a release date comes

[young gulch]

Thank you so much for your communication it’s great to be able to talk to a member of the studio about it

[young gulch]

True, but we also don’t know how the development is going since they’ve had to make it from the ground up so it’s pretty disrespectful to lash out when we don’t know what’s actually going on

[zinc pollen]

Oh I completely agree, it is never justified to lash out, no arguments

[spark tide]

How long did this game take to release on consoles from pc in the first place

If we consider that time + 6 months then we can be more reasonable lol

[dire bane]

The wait time does make sense If you think about the situation the thing js that people don't think about the situation

[zinc pollen]

Mhm, people just get mad, and don't think to sympathize or do research

[spark tide]

There’s always gunfire reborn if you want a sort of FPS RoR2

[zinc pollen]

Of course, I still stand by the fact that is had been quite a time, and previous promises were supposedly broken. Still, give the team the time and space they need to make it, and don't ever lash out

[dire bane]

And if people.tell them info they don't lisen

[zinc pollen]

Yup, thay happens a lotttt

[young gulch]

Im just happy we get updates

Even if we didn’t get them there’s more to my life than waiting for a dlc of a game lol

[spark tide]

I’m just gonna go back to blaming whichever console is hardest to work on for our problems lol

[zinc pollen]

Agreed, and now we have formed The Messengers Guild, for us to unite and converse

[young gulch]

This is my first day messaging here since I joined a year or so ago and I’m already directly involved in this group associated with a developer what a day

[zinc pollen]

We are happy you are here with us, friend :)

[young gulch]

Im happy to be here too 😄

[zinc pollen]

I do mean it. You and many others make this place what it is; nice.

[young gulch]

I can say the same for u too, you’ve made it very welcoming for me cuz honestly I didn’t think there was much for the console players here

It seems like I was quite wrong lol

[zinc pollen]

There are those who are not always friendly, but I think we'll all try our best to make it as welcoming as possible. As the rules say, Risk Of Rain is a game for everyone, and we are happy you chose to join us

[young gulch]

Im glad to be here, I honestly love this game so much and can’t wait to have SOTV in my hands, however long away that day is

[spark tide]

Just completely frustrated people. Enjoyed the game but dying to bugs and still no dlc does get to people. Especially railgunner mains 😅

[zinc pollen]

Trust me I sympathize, it must be both infuriating and feel almost insulting being on what is an arguably inferior version; however we must control our frustrations

[young gulch]

I’ve seen a few screenshots of it, I like the art style but just not sure if I’ll enjoy the gameplay loop

I’ve got gamepass so it wouldn’t hurt to try

[maiden musk]

yeah same here

[spark tide]

But void items are worth the wait 🥲

[young gulch]

I’ve personally tackled this problem by mostly not looking at the content so idrk much about the update

Ik void fiend and rail gunner and that there’s void items but that’s it really

[spark tide]

Don’t because the more you understand the game the more hype you’ll be from just reading about it 😭

[young gulch]

Yeah that’s what I was worried I’d do 😭

At the same time it’s so tempting but I wanna go in blind

[spark tide]

I’ve been hype since it’s been out on pc because of void items

[compact jay]

Yes and no

[young gulch]

Ah yeah I’ve heard they’re very fun but I think if I knew why I’d be too jealous

[compact jay]

I haven’t chatted here for quite some time
I am hoping to see some nice progress/a nice product when the push comes through

[spark tide]

I think that’s the problem. They have to take longer because we’d justifiably riot if any bugs on the scale that we have now were released

So hopefully someone is playing 6+ hours a day 😅

[zinc pollen]

Hello friend, happy to have you join us

[maiden musk]

viend looks so FUN

It shouldn’t be too far away thankfully

[compact jay]

Sure, I get that
And as long as they deliver on that, that’s all that can be asked for

[spark tide]

It should be this year, but I’m holding out until March 2024 lol

[zinc pollen]

We will all see soon

For now we have our lord and his words, and the hope that we will be able to play soon

[maiden musk]

would that be the third year since the last console update

[young gulch]

I’ve got a pretty big backlog to finish so hopefully it’ll be out before i finish that

[spark tide]

Exactly why that’s how long I’m willing to wait. By then they could release pc dlc 2 lol

[compact jay]

💀

[spark tide]

I feel like the goal is to release SoTV then a month or so later hype us with dlc 2 which will be character + alt stages and a few items

[near jacinth]

first drop i got was an elite aspect and then the host disconnected this has to be a joke

[spark tide]

But releasing SoTV so that we can also be hype for dlc2

[young gulch]

Hopefully at that stage updates come out quicker on console since the port will be more stable

[spark tide]

That should happen. Gearbox isn’t abandoning the game.

I’d rather they add new game modes than items though unless they consult Hoppo lol

[tulip sleet]

I thought the mobile turrets were bugged?

[frank panther]

looked into this recently, was fixed just after anniversary update

[tulip sleet]

Ohh ok.

[frank panther]

I think folks just never really went back to try em out cause they're an alt ability

[compact jay]

Me when I never knew they were bugged

Never had an issue with them

[frank panther]

I think it was in between 1.0 and anniversary, they'd just spawn, stand up, then be stuck there

[compact jay]

Interesting

[compact jay]

Simply get good

(This has no relation at all)

[young gulch]

Holy rip

[frank panther]

Does anyone have a video of themselves with the drones doing that thing they do on consoles where they push you around and roll along the ground?

[jaunty swan]

i never knew they were bugged bc i don’t play engineer

[dire bane]

That makes sense considering most of tge ability bugs are alts

[compact jay]

I don’t but I could probably find one posted in this channel lol

[spark tide]

I thought that was a feature.

[compact jay]

#ror2-console-discussion message

Like that?

[frank panther]

found a few of em in there over the last couple years and the team has looked into those. Was wondering if any of you happen to have one of yourself

[young gulch]

They aren’t meant to be that clingy I’m pretty sure

[compact jay]

Oh

[twin igloo]

I know I have one where I used them to help me roll a pot but it's not on hand right now

[spark tide]

I can get some footage today but it’ll take a while to send 😅

[compact jay]

It has but I’ve never recorded it. It was a fairly minor bug IMO relative to others I disliked lol

[young gulch]

No but it does happen often so if it happens I can clip it

[dire bane]

If there isn't it's easy to make I can try to make one when I go home

[frank panther]

rip

[twin igloo]

🙏 wholesome moments 2023

[spark tide]

Pushing I can understand but mine don’t roll on the ground

[young gulch]

Main reason I don’t buy drones anymore 💀

They hate me I swear

[frank panther]

ya, it's annoying af if you have bungus

[spark tide]

They’re trying to save you from bungus infection

[zinc pollen]

They're little heroes 🫡

[spark tide]

Can’t be addicted to being stationary

[young gulch]

Yeah I have a strange habit of buying more while playing engie so it doesn’t go well

[dire bane]

Preparation for droneman for sotv

Droneman goes crazy on engi

[young gulch]

I’ve not looked into SOTV items unfortunately what does that do in the simplest terms?

[twin igloo]

Makes drones mass murdering machines

[young gulch]

Hype

[dire bane]

Makes drone attack way faster gives them atg and a chaingun

This includes engi turrents

[twin igloo]

Basically turns them into striker drones crossed with missile drones

[dire bane]

And the chaingun has a 1.0 proc coefficient

So it goes hard on engi turrents with items

[young gulch]

Oh damn engie got a big passive buff then if u have that

[twin igloo]

Empathy cores actually become a realistic item to get too

They are so hard to get it's not even kind of funny

[young gulch]

Oh that’s just sad

[frank panther]

just dm'd

[twin igloo]

It's like a what, 1 in 7 chance to get one from recycling a boss item

10% chance for a boss item

AND getting the recycler

[dire bane]

It's best red in the game on everyone it makes the run free on top of that engi gets an even better version of it

[young gulch]

Yeah it sounds great for anyone

[frank panther]

@meager niche I also dm'd you 👍

[dire bane]

You don't need any items if you have you only need maybe 3 drones

[frank panther]

I don't check my pending messages ever so I assume other folks are probably like me

[jaunty swan]

better than clover? it seems worse in situations where you don’t have a lot of drones

[dire bane]

You don't need that many drones for it to pop off

Maybe 2-3

Amd after that you dont have to play the game

Clover needs specific items to work whitch is harder to get than 2-3 drones

Disputed beat the game with only droneman and empathy cores no other items on e8 too

[jaunty swan]

is there a video of that? i wanna see bc i’m curious to see how strong it actually looks in game

[spark tide]

Just use it in RoR1

If you have the game then imagine that in this game in a few months

And understand why it’s the best red

I wish we got ancient scepter back…

[dire bane]

https://youtu.be/KZ7BB7BuU4E

This is the run disputed did

[jaunty swan]

i barely played ror1 lol, i doubt i have it unlocked

[spark tide]

Omfg I didn’t even consider this

Well back to huffing copium I just got excited for the update again

[dire bane]

It will come soon

It seems like they are almost done It will prob be out by the end of the year if I had to guess

[dire bane]

Engi turrents are bassicly cores but they have items it's crazy

[jaunty swan]

ok yeah i understand now that’s really broken

[dire bane]

It cuts like a third of mithrix's hp in 1 hit its crazy

[jaunty swan]

wouldn’t that also be really good on captain for his passive item? that affects drones if i remember correctly right

[dire bane]

Yea it's the second best on him but him and engi are not close in power bc of how good its on engi turrents

[jaunty swan]

yeah that makes sense, 2 extra turrets will always be helpful in a build where turrets are op lol

[dire bane]

It's mostly the items they get bc of chaingun being crazy with it and the atg also the 50%+ attack speed

Also engi can get 3 turrents jn sotv with

It's really dumb

[jaunty swan]

yeah that seems really strong

there’s so much cool stuff coming with this dlc i’m so hyped for the console release hopefully it comes out this year

[dire bane]

There is also annoying stuff in dlc its not all good

The stages are also not taht good imo

Still worth the money tho

[spark tide]

I feel that way about the stadia stage so I’ll just waste more coins on stage selection

[autumn dawn]

hey where’s that guy who went “day [insert number] of no dlc on console” I don’t see him

[dire bane]

The main reason to be hyped for the update is bugfixes

[autumn dawn]

I haven’t noticed many major bugs, unless you count the uh

Wacky ragdoll physics where you clip thru the floor upon death and get spaghettified

it also happens when you kill the bigass jellyfish boss (I forgot it’s name )

[jaunty swan]

i’m mostly just excited for new stuff to do

like even if it’s a bit annoying it’ll be less repetitive which will make me play it more

[dire bane]

Also when the update comes you will get alot that's what happened to me the physics are really differnt

[dire bane]

The dlc is good but the bugfixes make the game feel really nice to play so it feels more important imo

[tribal rover]

How is the development of the Preston cult going

[zinc pollen]

Wonderfully

[jaunty swan]

oh yeah i forgot that’s the main reason the dlc is taking so long right? to fix all of the bugs and allow smoother releases in the future?

[dire bane]

Yea

[zinc pollen]

We have a name and are creating a symbol for our group

[tribal rover]

This is good progress

[dire bane]

They are rebuilding the game from ground up on a differnt code

[halcyon reef]

They are nearly done tho

[zinc pollen]

Wonderful progress indeed. If we can garner more support, perhaps we could petition to those in charge to create our own role, or at least be recognized as a real entity

[prime sky]

Why do they call it DLC1 if this is the only dlc?

[jaunty swan]

wait they are?

[halcyon reef]

Look at pins

[halcyon reef]

For console it will be the only dlc ever lol

[jaunty swan]

oh right this is my first time here in a while i must’ve missed that pin lol

hopefully that means the dlc will release this year

[halcyon reef]

Probably

[low kayak]

Is there any news for console update?

[jaunty swan]

check pins

[zinc pollen]

We made a cult!

[sand hare]

After the update do they plan to have anymore dlc?

[zinc pollen]

Very likely

They just want to get console players up to date first

[low kayak]

Will we also get return to risk of rain?

[zinc pollen]

It's set to release for PC and Switch only, although it is supposedly planned for ports to the other consoles after the initial release

[jaunty swan]

hopefully it releases on other consoles too, it seems fun

[zinc pollen]

I'm sure it will, no guarantees at the moment, but it seems like the devs really want to get it to everyone

[tulip sleet]

What y’all gonna do first when the dlc comes out?

[meager niche]

Play railgunner

[tulip sleet]

Ima unlock viend asap.

[dire bane]

do simularcrum as railgunner to try out a charcater and a mode while doing that

[tulip sleet]

I need viend.

[short iris]

Get all the unlocks and then do a 24 hour long simulacrum session until my eyeballs pop out

[twin igloo]

🤯

[low kayak]

So its confirmed we finally get the console updates and optimization?

[pale mountain]

This announcement was worth quite a lot of money 💰

[quartz bay]

lmao

almost at 200$

[pale mountain]

Sometime this year probably

[tulip sleet]

Viend looks so cool.

[zinc pollen]

Ahhh the Messengers Guild is strong

[twin igloo]

God bless preston

[tulip sleet]

Yas queen.👁️👄👁️

A new character is cool and all but what’s the point if sotv still isn’t here

[cinder zealot]

different development team

gearbox is working on creating console/pc consistency and brining console sotv, while hg is working on rorr

[zinc pollen]

And after SOTV is console, there will supposedly be more content down the line on ROR2

[white quarry]

GB wouldn’t buy the IP if they weren’t gonna do stuff with it

[quartz bay]

mr preston gearbox if you see this message please ask whoever at gearbox is in charge of merch to make gup plush real

[zinc pollen]

Join the Messengers Guild and we will petition for it 😭

[proud nymph]

I wonder what a whole new dlc could be 🤔

Maybe something related to imps?

Or n'kuhana ? i have no clue

i definitely think the void dlc can be expanded upon with the unfinished stuff, especially that cutscene gah dayum

[lilac kelp]

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think this is the most common suggestion for a ror2 dlc

And it's a pretty good one tbh

[proud nymph]

It had a lot of talk awhile ago i dont know if people still suggest it now but I do remember people talking about the red plains

[twilit breach]

Is your name the release date for sotv?

[frail merlin]

So do you think when rorr release they are gonna be more active player than console or pc

[quartz bay]

i think more people are gonna be playing rorr on pc just because most people who play ror2 are pc players

switch has a huge userbase as well though im not sure how many people care about rorr

i know alot of people who only have a switch for first party games

[frail merlin]

Oh yeah PlayStation and Xbox can’t get it

[radiant sleet]

Maybe more about the null area. Or the white plane (idk what the white plane is but its brought up)

[pale mountain]

Maybe the place with that other scavenger🤔

[wicked relic]

are they ever going to bring out cross play?

[young gulch]

If this new build is the same for all consoles then it could be cross play for Xbox, PlayStation and switch

I don’t think they’ve said any plans on making it cross play unfortunately tho

[pale mountain]

It's a possibility after the initial update

[eternal summit]

atleast we're getting eclipse mp thats what im looking forward to

[coarse skiff]

does anyone know why i dont have mocha

[frail merlin]

Well Preston denied my evidence of crossplay

But I think there exist a good chance it might come out someday

[valid river]

I haven’t been following for a bit can anyone remind me of the current estimation for survivors of the void console release? I remember they posted a bit ago about the time frame but i have forgotten

Ty

[prime sky]

There is no longer an estimation

[ruby timber]

sooner than you think
not as soon as you'd like

[young gulch]

Before summer 2024 soon or do u have no idea

[blissful marlin]

Has any of the bugs been fixed yet? Haven’t played in a while and don’t want to start a run just to find out it’s still fucked up

[young gulch]

I don’t think there’s been a major patch since the anniversary update

[young gulch]

@frank panther correct me if I’m wrong

[meager niche]

There was a mini patch 2 months after the anniversary update was released on Xbox and PS

[blissful marlin]

So it’s still broken?

[young gulch]

For the most part yes. I’d consider it playable but it’s still in a very inferior state compared to pc

[frail merlin]

The waiting game

[glad plover]

That was wild yesterday after the announcements lmfao, Gotham city gone wild

[coarse skiff]

guys why i dont have mocha

[meager niche]

Because it's not in the console version.

Hey does anyone know what the log book entry between the lunar chimera wisp and the lunar chimera tank thing

[orchid rapids]

Damn i feel like even if sotv came out today for console i wouldnt even be as hyped as i wouldve been

[frank panther]

@meager niche is right, there was an additional patch after anniversary.

[meager niche]

My hype came back thanks to Preston.

[young gulch]

Preston enlightened us with the knowledge that it exists

[frail merlin]

Our lord and savior Preston.

[jaunty swan]

which engi turret would be better for eclipse?

[meager niche]

They are almost the same, stationary turrets have better scaling with items but if you don't have or position them in good places they die all the time, mobile turrets are the opposite, a little bit less synergy with items but better survivability.
I prefer more mobile turrets for my eclipse runs because I like that playstyle more.

[jaunty swan]

oh ok thanks, i’ll probably use the mobile ones too bc i prefer that playstyle

[tawny olive]

i had a dream last night that i was playing console sotv

[frail merlin]

Man I remember when I thought engi was the easiest character

[meager niche]

He is one of the best on late game normal runs but in eclipse he really struggles.

[frail merlin]

He is so slow I usually fall behind in item

[pale mountain]

Engi is objectively the worst survivor because of his primary

[arctic glade]

Can you use kbm on console?

[torn fossil]

its weird how they binded engi's primary to the left bumper instead of right trigger like every other survivor

[fluid rapids]

I love engineer

Him and Rex are my two favorite characters

[frail merlin]

We console player have maxed our endurance stat

[gleaming owl]

So did Survivors of the void update come out yet?

and how much does it cost?

[torn fossil]

not out yet but you can probably check pc prices to see what it will cost + its going to be on sale at first

[gleaming owl]

Really... It's been this long...

I'm just losing hope.

I already have the game on switch and like it on Switch

[mossy lichen]

I would say that it will come out in 6-9 months

[frail merlin]

6-9 month is to soon I predict it will come exactly 500 days from now on

[upbeat ore]

I believe it's mithrix

[trim forum]

Hey Hopoo Game, my port fucking sucks. Can I have a refund if you're planning on just working on the next game BEFORE fixing the current game?

[frail merlin]

I don’t think I have seen any hoopoo dev here I probably have better luck wishing for a release date than getting a answer of hoopoo here

[mossy lichen]

🥌

[trim forum]

They say that then they say they are working on it. They are constantly saying they are working on fixing the console ports but NEVER showed any kind of actual progress. They keep delaying and, like i said, keep saying they are working on fixing the game.

[trim forum]

I know. I'm just sharing my emotion about a good game that is now just completely trash worthy

Now, i know fixing games can be hard but I honestly don't believe they are actually working on it. I heard more news about Return in the past 2 months then I did about the game being fixed in the last 2 years.

I personally believe this is unacceptable to leave a product that doesn't work properly on the store

[frail merlin]

Well I remember being pretty upset at how the original release date was over a year ago it’s weird how you can delay a game so back they should just gave us a very in the future release date and I would be more happy

Bdw check pin if you wanna have better news

[trim forum]

They could be responsible and make a "in the meantime" update that just makes the game work.

All i ask is for the game to work. I would LOVE being able to play the game instead of dying within .01 seconds of starting the teleporter on stage one 90% of the time

I would love for Petrichov to not, for some reason, be impossible to beat on consoles because chimeras do 1/4 of your ho per shot and they have more health then mithrix himself.

[frail merlin]

I think adapting to the buggy car crash has fun in the first year now I just want to play the normal

[trim forum]

The knly fix we had was the brass hitbox and luck bug.

Literally gearbox has done more about fixing the console ports then what Hopoo has done. Because Hopoo has done nothing yet.

[frail merlin]

They sold the game that what they did

[trim forum]

Ror2 on consoles is just completely luck based. It's worst then Binding Of Isaac. Why? Because at least TBoI is purposefully made to be like that and be mostly luck based. The game is made around bei g luck based. RoR2 isn't.

Yes there always was some luck involved but you can beat the game with 10 items just because you are good while not being able to beat it at all with 200 items because you suck

Now it's a russian roulette

[frail merlin]

I would say that depends on your character how luck based your run is like how engi can have any item working on him while artificer can only have a few

[trim forum]

Melee classes on console are just not possible to play because of blazing enemies being able to oneshot you no matter what

I mostly play commando and Mul-t

And I know how to play well. I've been playing this game since ghe Siren Fall update in 2019. Only reason i'm on co sole is because my laptop broke.

[frail merlin]

Thing is with blazing enemies are they trail are only on the ground so if you just start attacking the head instead you won’t take damage but I think melee is usually the harder type if you are not loader

Well the learning curve for console is just well like the game messed up I stopped playing for half a year and later came back to do eclipse and dy8ng a lot in a rouge like is the expected

[trim forum]

No, blazing on console have really horrible hotboxes. You don't even need to touch the fire or be on the ground for the trail to do 2000 damage in a si gle frame.

[trim forum]

Yeah but i'm talking about dying because the game is wrong, not the player. I've peaked in my RoR2 skills a while back

[frail merlin]

Man I don’t know what to say how about you either keep playing or just quit it and come back later complaining cause of no news I also like a finish game but I’ve been playing to much switch that I think I have broken something in me and now I don’t mind if the game is buggy or laggy I actually find it quite entertaining

[quartz bay]

yea play other games, break the cope cycle

[frail merlin]

I’ve completed all of botw and totk plus hollow knight while waiting for this

I’m currently playing gungeon for the first time now I have so many unfinished game I might actually go another 500+

And while I’m at it what should I play next undertale or cup head

[quartz bay]

ive played quite alot of games atm and i still have like 30+ more that ive bought but haven't played yet

so im good for a while

[meager niche]

Mate, you are not going to do anything if you just "scream", the game is buggy right now but trust me you can play around the bugs and some bugs/glitches are mainly positive for the player, double dips bug is the main one.
If you don't want to believe me, I'm just going to tell you, I already beat eclipse with all the survivors multiple times in this update and honestly the bugs no longer affect me but not everyone has the same ideology as me but my main message is that the game is playable on the current version.

You can play other games while you wait, RoR 2 is not the only existing game.

[frail merlin]

This wouldn’t be possible without the bugs

[meager niche]

Exactly, we love double dips.

[frail merlin]

Gonna still miss that one

[meager niche]

Yeah but if the cost is fixing the negative ones I gladly accept it.

[frail merlin]

It will be a different experience and I’m all about it

[quartz bay]

one of the main bugs im definitely gonna miss is how easy pot rolling is compared to pc

[frail merlin]

It’s easier didn’t know didn’t try these bug never fail to surprise me

[meager niche]

I struggle with pot rolling.
I have a pot rolling issue.

[quartz bay]

rip

[frail merlin]

I still don’t think 5 min is worth it for 2 bands

[meager niche]

I mean, if you have damage increase items it may be worth it.

[trim forum]

I haven't gotten a single run where the game didn't either end up with me losing all of my framerate or the game removing all of my item's effects or simply having something spawn undernewth me and causing me to die immediately because it was blazing.

[frail merlin]

I’ve been playing commando for soon a week I think I need to recover to change my opinion

[trim forum]

You all might get good run but I'm not getting any runs that are possible. Even god runs just end because the game glitches out and nothing works properly

[frail merlin]

I die to the knock back bug for the past week I miss it when it was just simple old fire elite

[trim forum]

I'm just desperate to have this game be good again because right now I'm tired of having to wait so long because all the games that comes out are just triple A trash scams

[trim forum]

I'm pretty sure taking damage from knockback if you hit a wall too quickly is not a bug. It's happened to me since I've been playing the game

[quartz bay]

play indie games then

[trim forum]

Which means since 2019

[quartz bay]

pushing the pot is usually good enough for me

[frail merlin]

Wait you think I died to a wall

[trim forum]

That's what i try to do but im not rich so I can't get a pc and co sole hate indie games for somereason probably because they're not profitable enough

[trim forum]

No

I just mean a hard surface in general

What happened here is that you were knocked into great velocity and you hit the floor causing the game to give you "fall damage".

[frail merlin]

I can’t afford any triple a game anymore last one I played was horizon zero dawn if we don’t count Nintendo game when I was 8 after that left dad me and I never got any more expensive game and my PlayStation 4 is to old

[trim forum]

Yeah.... last one I payed for was BO3.... it's..... meh.

I only play it for zombies

Alone because the community is so fucking toxic

[quartz bay]

ive never had any issues with any indie games on playstation personally, most ran fine

[frail merlin]

Well it’s was just a bad example I’m usually referring to all these wisp who have been powered by the bugs

[trim forum]

I remember doing that a long time ago

[trim forum]

Wisps are just badly designed in general. 100% accuracy unless you have 5 hoofs or whatever.

Or manage to somehow not have the hit register

[frail merlin]

If you jump in the last second or use a utility skill you can dodge a wisp Bdw the closer you are to the wisp the less aimbot it gets

You learn a lot when dying to stage 1

[trim forum]

I know. As a xommando main I can just slide away when they fire. But i mean for characters that don't really have the opportunity to just use their ability to always dodge wisps. Like acrid, mercenary, loader, captain, bandit

[trim forum]

And please, I don't need to be told that. It's making me feel like you think I don't know hoe to play the game. ):

How*

[frail merlin]

How long have you played? Cause last time I heard these kind of complaints was my teammate who kept dying

[trim forum]

I believe I have repeated I have been playing this game since the siren fall update in 2019

Siren fall being the 2nd major update this game had when it was early access

[frail merlin]

Hmmm most people who have stayed here long have just accepted the bugs as part of the game

[trim forum]

I don't. I have played the game on PC for a long while before my laptop broke so for me the console version is absolutely atrocious

[frail merlin]

Ah forgot that well you should have known this game was just a downgraded version many people get pretty sad when comparing the two

[trim forum]

I can't get used to the game breaking bugs or the mechanics that are busted

[trim forum]

It's because no one ever talked about the console port. I haven't EVER heard anything about it so I just believed it was the same. Which I think is a pretty normal thing to assume.

If i'm buying a game, the EXACT SAME game, that I had before, why should I assume it's different outside of the control schemes and performance?

And by performance i mostly talk about the fps

[frail merlin]

I thought our complaint was loud enough to reach you

[spark tide]

I’m going to play monsoon then obliterate stage 18, who should I play?

[trim forum]

Big booty

I mean huntress

[frail merlin]

Same thing

[trim forum]

Disregard the first reply

[spark tide]

I just did a loader run.

Oh wait her hands are to hold big booty nvm

[trim forum]

No. That would be THICC

[prime sky]

LEAVE

[trim forum]

Not to someone who dozent spend their time on social media /:

Doesn't *

[trim forum]

Never

I love this game too much

[frail merlin]

I spend all my time on discord I refuse to use twitter or TikTok since I’ve heard of it

But the comments on YouTube should be enough I think or Reddit

[gray quarry]

That SOTV come out yet

[trim forum]

🤮 reddit

[frail merlin]

Go back to you cave it’s not ready yet

I need to sleep this for sure is gonna pop up in my dreams

[gray quarry]

Very well then

Praying for y’all tho

[spark tide]

I’m at 18 coins right now

Hopefully the dlc is out before I reach 300+ again

[spark tide]

I’ll lyk how it goes

[upbeat ore]

Average day on console

[outer mango]

😪

[torn fossil]

today i learned mithrix will continue the big spinny attack if interrupted

[outer mango]

I'm gonna be a skeleton by the time sotv releases

[prime sky]

Mithrix coated his hammer with super glue

[meager niche]

Yeah

Yayyyyyy

[pale mountain]

Oh boi

For one of the FF16 achievements you need to max all abilities

I need to kill a group of 4 dudes 900-1000 times to get enough points for that

Takes around half a minute on average

Thats like 8 hours of repeatedly killing these dudes

Fun

[weak hare]

wait pc doesn't have this level of pain

[vital palm]

When I see the announcement ping on the server 😱 but turns out it’s got nothing to do with the console sotv

[outer mango]

Soon I'll be a dead rotting skeleton

After that I can play sotv

I am a bit of a god gamer tbh

[mossy lichen]

I hate those things more than brass contraptions

[coarse skiff]

guys im in a loop rn

can i put my ps4 in rest mode and itll keep my progress or is there no way i can sleep then comeback

[outer mango]

What do you mean

[tribal rover]

If you pause and do rest mode it should

[meager niche]

Exoprimal is so fun.

[coarse skiff]

thanks

[woeful kelp]

We love flying in the ceiling during mithrix

[woven pelican]

Ong, mithrix knockback is mad annoyung

[final nimbus]

Still no update on dlc?

[frank niche]

Nope

unofficial preston quotes

#ror2-console-discussion message

like that

[rotund delta]

Why exactly is it taking so long to release the DLC to consoles?

[zinc pollen]

Apparently they had to entirely rebuild the code for the console port, so the dlcs and issues they're fixing are almost entirely new territory. Although, reports from Preston suggest good progress is being made, and they're doing a lot of bug fixing at the moment

[white quarry]

common Bizz W

[rotund delta]

Ah that makes sense

Thank you!

[zinc pollen]

Happy we could be of assistance

[outer mango]

My ps5 will not be having any trouble running the game I can promise that
