For some online games you need to, maybe not offline games

No you definitely need to buy it again

[quartz bay]

i can easily prove you dont need to buy a game again, i have a alt on my switch lol

[frail merlin]

Pretty sure that only applies if you have 2 different switch also why you gotta buy every game digitally for one account, to be able port over the other games.

[quartz bay]

i dont really see the point of having multiple switch accs with different purchases, it just seems more convenient to have all purchases on the primary acc

[frail merlin]

My old one broke down so I had to get a new one

I did lose some game that I really didn’t care about

[stuck dagger]

I HATE THE FLYING PEST WHEN IM BKT HSING A HITSCAN

ESPECIALLY ESRLY GAME BRO

THEY DEAL SO MUCH DAMAGE

That tongue be slorp glorpin

[rapid blaze]

Hey that's me!

[frail merlin]

I was too blinded by hatred to be seeing that huge tongue it is packing.

[tribal rover]

What if instead of Blind Pest it's called 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 Pest

[hollow furnace]

what the 𝓿𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴

[quartz bay]

LOL

[rapid blaze]

What the vreak indeed

[unique hare]

yo guys just closed my 2nd eclipse on louder, my main advice on last mitrix stage if u have strong build (with like items polilyte(void ukulele), plazma shrimp) just hide behind pillars he gonna damage itself, let drone do that job.

[quartz bay]

i mean yea but that takes too long

personally i find it easier just to walk around mithrix in a circle and being cautious of his attacks/when to attack

[sharp osprey]

if you have the alternate grapple with loader you can just chip at him until he gives your items back as well

[frail merlin]

Phase 4 isn’t that scary it’s literally just 2 attacks. At this point I believe people are dying to phase 4 out of fear instead of the difficulty.

[wispy crypt]

True my last p4 death was because I was too focused on hiding behind a pillar and getting jumpscared by mithrix who at that point was already too close to avoid

Same thing in my successful p2 run except I somehow barely survived despite plute and a tenta proc

[noble furnace]

Last time I died in phase 4 was because of Drone parts before the devotion update.

[frail merlin]

Melee merc may be a bad example but was the only one I had.

[ebon gust]

Normally I just hide behind a pillar, wait for him to come to me, and then kill him

[frail merlin]

If you are gonna wait for him to come for you, why don’t you just fight him from the beginning

[ebon gust]

True (I rarely play loader/Merc so, that's normally not a smart decision)

[coral timber]

I was clearly over it

Can someone please explain how i got hit by the shockwave

2nd time this happened on a rex run

Maybe some hitbox jank?

[frail merlin]

combined with Rex hit box

[noble furnace]

Yep

[coral timber]

Ah

[cinder topaz]

Are there any known plans to make an Xbox Series X|S enhanced edition?

[sudden hazel]

[frail merlin]

Only bug I could think of is how laggy the moon get thanks to void item for some reason. Other than that it’s been pretty dry.

[meager niche]

Oh yea, I’ve been having that lately too.
It’s completely fine until I either get to the soup shop or start the fight. Then my frame cut in half

[frail merlin]

Yeah, from what I’ve seen it seems to be void crit, exploder(the enemy) something else that’s causing this. But I did also recently discover that if a void reaver kills an exploder it will also cause the lag.

[hot hill]

I think enough stacks of polylute fucks it up too

[frail merlin]

Maybe, but this is what I’ve gathered from my experience

And while I was at it, I decided to search for Wertus clip to further prove my point

[meager niche]

Perhaps something about the fact the exploder doesn’t do its flame death?

If so, then the lag would also happen when an exploder falls off the stage

[frail merlin]

I assume it’s because of this. But I don’t know if that’s really how vrit works.

[meager niche]

That is not how vrit works

Vrit shows numbers but it actually doesn’t.
It’s more so an off switch for the enemies existence. Again, like fall damage

When a gup and geep fall off the stage they don’t split. Neither do they when vritted

[frail merlin]

Probably just some stuff in the background breaking then

[meager niche]

It could be that the game can’t figure out if the flame exists or not, therefore making it create it and destroy it constantly.

[frail merlin]

Surely gearbox will take use for all this knowledge and do something about this horrible bug

[meager niche]

[hallow grail]

[pure ibex]

so with the devotion update on ps did the revert the change that allowed mercenary to push enemies around? I noticed I could push floating bosses around more with eviscerate.

[steel pine]

my worst run ever only reason i won is cause of tricorn on stage 5 and soups on the moon😭

[meager niche]

Damn. That was a harsh run

[ebon gust]

Empathy cores and drone parts is a hell of a save

[short iris]

Is there ANY way to fix the moon running at 3fps because of void crit????

[frail merlin]

Nope, if you catch it there is no going back.

[supple canyon]

Is it safe to say the multiplayer lobby for the switch will always be broken?

[wispy crypt]

Probably

But at least they are better than switch lobbies in returns

[hot hill]

I don't think I've had any problem joining people's lobbies here on switch

[wispy crypt]

Like what fucking demon took over my wifi connection

[hot hill]

That's why I got a USB to ethernet adapter when I decided to start playing my switch online

Would recommend

Although it only works if you have switch with a dock

[frail merlin]

Whoa I killed him fast

Now that I look closer, it seems mithrix had 2000+ stack of bleed which I don’t think is possible with only 1 crit glass or maybe I just expended all my luck.

[noble furnace]

The power of + + with a crit.

[short iris]

https://youtu.be/bCkV4udhi1k?si=xreyT-Nx-

originally took this clip to see what killed beetle queen but when I watched it back I noticed something far more intresting, for some reason the description of beetle queen appears before her name, and for the first few frames when her name is missing, it says "mother of many" which is the description for the toxic beast from ror1????

[paper shard]

heeeey switch players? what does it mean when your screen goes powerpoint and starts flashing black?

[boreal wave]

Probably lagged or bugged ur game so bad it decided it was done XD

[paper shard]

eh ill get to stage 20 at least

im at 18

[frail merlin]

That’s really interesting. I either think it’s gonna be a variant like overloading worm, a toxic beast like you said or a gearbox employee is just trolling us.

[short iris]

My question is like. How did this get in, if it's not from devotion then why put it in the game. And if it's from devotion then like... I just, I just don't get it

[frail merlin]

I dont think its so surprising knowing gearbox and their mistakes/laziness

[short iris]

I'll ask around and see if anyone knows about this (also what one shot beetle queen in that clip, was is it disc?)

[frail merlin]

Yeah it was disc, usually that item never hits the right target for me

Took some searching to find this clip but it seems this isn’t something to do with the devotion update

[paper shard]

oh god im lagging so badly im getting a headache

stupid rockets

[quartz bay]

means the performance is horribly optimized for switch lol

cant wait for negative fps stage 4

[wispy crypt]

I should probably do another one of these to see how the performance is holding up this update

Though I wont be able to compare because this one was in a non host multiplayer environment

[hallow grail]

how to make acrid work well ?

[noble furnace]

Use poison and the range abilities, try to not go melee range, poison everything with the secondary and/or the special ability and just run, poison at minimum will deal 10% of the target HP over 10 seconds but it doesn't kill so slowly but surely you will kill all the enemies in around 100 seconds.

[woven pelican]

I WAS LITERALLY ABOUT TO TALK ABOUT THIS

Straight up just turned the game off.

[wispy crypt]

Its manageable

[woven pelican]

It was really bad for me

[wispy crypt]

At least once you get the hang of getting mithrix to run into death

[woven pelican]

Like down to a slideshow slow for me, while doing pillars

Yeaht that’s horrendous 😔

[gleaming owl]

made it all the way to mithrix and died to a lunar chimera shot... i was at 50 minutes on eclipse 1, am I being too slow?

[quartz bay]

not really, i usually get to commencement 60+ minutes in

just gotta dodge tho if you died at the start of commencement staying near the ship to kill all the perfected chimera helps as well

[ebon gust]

Nah, I wouldn't worry about time until you're pushing 60 minutes by stage 5
But even then, as long as you're getting enough items 🤷‍♂️

That's a pretty good time tho, I had a similar time while fighting mithrix on my last run (won at the hour mark)

[woven pelican]

Don’t know if someone ID’ed this already but captains microbots seems to delete mithrix’s pizza attacks

[ebon gust]

I feel like I've seen that

[faint thicket]

Hey guys, i really want to buy sotv dlc , but im not sure how does it works on switch?

[dusky rivet]

It does work at the cost of a lower perfomance.

[faint thicket]

@dusky rivet does it has stable fps at pre-loop?

[dusky rivet]

I say 10-30 fps, 10 being when the stage is overflooded with enemies. But it does depends on what standard you have tho. One thing I do wanna point out is that the switch really good at not crashing.

[gleaming owl]

Switch can chug but the joint DON'T CRASH

[wispy crypt]

Yeah its crazy how much that thing can withstand before breaking

Back in the sotv update in a multiplayer run I did get the hosts game to crash through about 15 simultaneous meteorite uses

[frail merlin]

The switch did not succumb

[hot hill]

I have had it crash on both attempts to go to the voidling after defeating mithrix in a looped run

I should do a couple more tests on that

[frail merlin]

My pc crash more often than the switch, gearbox must have done some dark art or something.

[wispy crypt]

Gearbox putting all the points in crash resistance and completely ignoring performance and bugs when levelling the switch

[lunar vortex]

anybody knows if double expose tech works on console?

[wispy crypt]

I think so

Dont see why it wouldnt

[noble furnace]

It does work.

[lunar vortex]

does it work the same way? because sometimes it doesn't work for me

[wispy crypt]

Why wouldnt it? If it doesnt work sometimes then you just mistimed it those times

Especially with added attack speed but also normally its not that easy to time

[civic nebula]

Can someone help me get mercenary? I've been trying for so long

[short iris]

In the channel #lfg-playstation-ror2 you can find people that are looking to play

There's channels for respective consoles

[civic nebula]

Okay

[short iris]

On another note, found a weird glitch, using royal capacitor on this stage (possible related to void seeds) can change the lighting of the entire stage

This game is like a bloodline disease, no matter how long will pass, weeks, months, days or even a year, it always comes back to me and even though I wanna abandon filing the bugs I just CANT not do it

[hot hill]

Doin God's work

[short iris]

I'm God's weakest soldier 😭

Sometimes I doubt that this does anything, or is worth it. Very easy for it to feel for nought, for nothing. Bbuttt it does kinda give me a sense of purpose sometimes so

[frail merlin]

Possibly could be the fps difference is what I think because currently I do think doing it on console is a bit harder.

[ebon gust]

Yeah, since you aren't able to consistently run at high frame rates, some of the more precise tech are harder to do, but are still very doable

[lunar vortex]

oh yeah i think that's the reason why i can't do it constantly on high stages

[frail merlin]

I’ve been able to do it semi consistently when I’m actually focusing. Normally I just do it lazily in melee range, only doing full transfers when the enemies are far away.

[wispy crypt]

But sharing our finds is fun 🥺

[quartz bay]

imo switch not crashing doesn't mean anything if the game cant even run at a consistent fps

or beyond a few frames per second lol

[wispy crypt]

I mean personally I prefer being reassured I wont lose my run if I go just a bit longer than being reassured the game runs at a stable rate

Even if the fps go below 1

[drowsy island]

what modsshould I install

[frail merlin]

Worst place to ask that question

[quartz bay]

LOL

[short iris]

I'm gonna start tweaking bro

[short iris]

True....

[coral timber]

Just beat e3 on railguner

Now i need to do it on everyone else

Thats not too fun on some survivors cough REX cough

[quartz bay]

i mean rex isnt affected by any eclipse modifiers till e5

[white quarry]

He is still very affected by double fall dmg

e4 he does minimise

Or it so to speak

[quartz bay]

well yea

i was more talking about the innate healing being cut in half

probs should've mentioned that

[short iris]

Probably most minor bug/oversight in the game, bringing up the items and player menu and hovering over void fiends corrupted skills shows the wrong description

I'm not even actively looking for bugs they just kinda come to me

Can someone check if beetle queen pests have a despawning animation or if they are meant to just blank out of existence

[frail merlin]

I’m pretty sure the despawn is intentionally

[short iris]

I thought it'd have an animation for it lol

[ebon gust]

They're such a small part of the game, they don't even have a name when you mark them, so I can't blame the devs for not adding an animation

[short iris]

Yeah agree, I guess it's not like people are "stopping to smell the roses" in Ror2, but Itd definitely be neat

Omg I remember when I first shot the weird flying thingies in the background of distant roost I think, that was awesome

[frail merlin]

I check on the pc version if they actually have a animation whenever I feel like it

[mortal knoll]

i want crossplay :(

[frail merlin]

Gonna take a couple of miracle for that to happen

[noble furnace]

Guys... August 21st, release date announcement.

[quartz bay]

i have the game on ps5 so it doesn't really matter but ima start mauling if the switch performance isnt addressed when sots releases

[wispy crypt]

Whered you get that info

[wispy crypt]

It never really bothers me outside of the moon bug

Like I have max sensitivity and no aim assist on and still hit most of my shots despite whatever lag there is until aiming becomes more of a suggestion than a necessity

Really by the time you get semi consistent wins on monsoon you shoulda gotten used to how aiming feels

Ooooooooo

[quartz bay]

no amount of coping is gonna convince me the switch performance isnt garbage lol

i have beaten e8 a few times post sotv dlc and it was ass

[strange flax]

I crashed on stage 35 it was really sad

[thorny comet]

YEES

[frail merlin]

Whoa already another showcase

[short iris]

Thank you for even considering it :>

Much appreciated even if you don't do It

Oh my GOD the glitch that makes void infectors stuck in the stage geometry in scorched achres is so infuriating, like that entire part of the stage is just locked out of me and I csnt get the void cradles, and if the teleporter is there I just have to abandon the run 😭

I ain't got anything to deal with this shit

[frail merlin]

No problem
Bdw playing railgunner with playable fps is like a different character

[upbeat star]

Oh I didn’t see the direct link I just saw your question and already had the image ready, mb

[frail merlin]

Praying for them to not rush this dlc like the others

[short iris]

Really. I hope they also have patches that ARNT content updates, that'd be very. Nice

Hope that they also go back to some of the older content in the game to maybe change or improve

[frail merlin]

I hope so but it’s also a dlc, I wouldn’t be surprised if they just completely ignore old content

[wintry falcon]

new dlc?

[thorny comet]

Yup

[mighty citrus]

I hate to say it but I think gearbox is cooking somewhat.

[steel pine]

finally got 1000 on xbox

[ebon gust]

Les goooo

I'm at like 320 something

[frail merlin]

The eclipse grind really boosted my lunar coin count. I used to have around 330 lunar coins at November 8 now I have almost 1500

[mighty citrus]

I haven't played ror2 in a hot minute

Good thing we are getting dlc soon

[quartz bay]

apparently chris himself was on a bit of a crunch, i wouldn't be surprised if the dlc was a bit rushed as well

crossing my fingers the dlc isnt horribly bugged lol

[frail merlin]

I wanna believe that it’s not gonna end up horribly rushed but all the flags are just lining together so nicely. Might as well prepare a bug list for release.

[noble furnace]

Lets fucking GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[mighty citrus]

I do want to believe it'll be good, but im not gonna keep my hopes up

[short iris]

Out of curiosity what are these flags

My hopes are up for the dlc content in quality and quantity but I am... Quite frankly afraid of the polish due to past history

[short iris]

I know nothing about actually producing music but ending at February for something not released for far longer seems kinda cut short

Unless they like, thought the dlc would be out way earlier or smth

[quartz bay]

probs making game music has a stricter deadline since the the programmers have to code in all the individual stems of any given song to get it to sound right in game

like to make sure the song loops correctly or has a clean transition like how mithrix's song transitions with each phase

i dont think the ror2 soundtrack is as complex as this but this vid does share alot of the little intricacies when it comes to game music https://youtu.be/GaBJ2C7Am6E?si=XJ7daAH9FBf9URQU

[short iris]

Hm, true

[short iris]

But am I the crazy one or is the mithrix phase 2 music just off, and like when it loops it starts the transition to phase 3 but it just then cuts off

[quartz bay]

admittedly its been a while since i last played ror2 so im not sure

[short iris]

I've spent the last hour or two just going through the bug list and polishing it up, any typos, more clear and understandable language for some notes. And I'm kinda in this dilemma which is tearing me apart. The verdant falls update had only 4 bug fixes noted down for it but we know that it fixed some other stuff than that, which leads me to ask if I should mark some bugs, mostly pretty specific ones, that haven't been seen since as uknown?? What if they're just really rare, what if they just didn't tell us they're fixed

[steel pine]

generational throw

i messed up my eccentric 💔

[ebon gust]

😔✊

[ebon gust]

I've always found that so odd
How mercs hotbox interacts with ledges n all that

[frail merlin]

The console port being rushed even tho they had 2+ years, the devotion update also having been obviously rushed and what thqwibble showed me.

[short iris]

True…….

[delicate cave]

i mean console was always weird

steam by hopoo, yet console was made by somebody gearbox hired

[short iris]

Honestly for me there’s only a handful of bugs I’d want fixed for me to be satisfied

But I low-key want changes like Rex’s abilities fixed for eclipse or a buff and some item tweaks way more

It always felt to me like there was meant to be a tier between greens and reds with how shitty some greens are and how game changing some reds are and how absolutely nothing others are

[frail merlin]

Makes me question on how the new dlc will tackle balancing because sotv certainly made the game a lot easier.

[wispy crypt]

I personally hope that the path of the colossus is gonna be a considerable step up in difficulty

In their second dev diary they also mentioned that shattered abodes will be a bit harder than its peers because of the lack of cover so they are definitely accounting for the boons and banes of stage layout

[short iris]

Speaking of cover. Whenever I watch a yt video I can just see people…. Run, to avoid the stone titan laser but on my game it seems to stick onto my character no matter what and no matter how fast I go

[stoic quiver]

closer you are the easier it is to dodge

[wispy crypt]

It barely hits me when I run around titans

[short iris]

Huh

[stoic quiver]

more movespeed can make it easier, but generally, you can move in a circle faster if you're closer to the center

[short iris]

Because like, even with a merc dash it just seems to be stuck on me all through it, Gonna have to test it when I get home because I never get this

[stoic quiver]

so, if you're close to the titan, don't dash through him, just run in a circle around him

you should be fast enough to dodge the laser in you never stop sprinting

[short iris]

Your bio and status is awesome btw

[stoic quiver]

Hell yeagh

[frail merlin]

Teleporting with gups

[hollow furnace]

GUP

[noble furnace]

Indeed

[short iris]

What even happens. Why do you teleport like that 😭

[frail merlin]

I have no idea why but I appreciate the distance the game gave me

[delicate cave]

gup spawned inside him

i think he just got launched really fast

[short iris]

just went frame by frame, looks like it

Weird that the momentum just. Stopped. All of a sudden

[delicate cave]

looks like his jump peaked and he stopped going up

console physics for ya

[frail merlin]

It looks like the gup spawned right next to me tho

[short iris]

You think it could be specificly because of gups?

I can only imagine it’s jumping + having something spawn inside of you doing that

[quiet flower]

I play on windows, but a friend of mine got RoR2 on the switch.

I'm thinking about buying it for my GF's switch, and his son's switch so that we can all play together.
Before I do that, I wanna know what the multiplayer exp is like on the switch.

How's the lag? How's the game performance with many monsters?
Can you loop on that thing with 4 people?
We would be playing in the same room.

[frail merlin]

As the long the host got good wifi and the distance isn’t on the other side of the world (which shouldn’t be a problem for you) it should be no delays or desyinc.
As it being switch it is of course gonna be laggier, so character like railgunner is practically a new difficulty(especially with the extra multiplayer lag). More monsters and projectiles=lag. But the switch refuses to crash even with all its limitations tho.
I haven’t looped so much on multiplayer but it could probably handle 10-20 stages if someone doesn’t got a ridiculous build. Exp is shared across all player like pc.

[short iris]

(Exp is short for experience, they meant what the switch experience is like 💀)

[frail merlin]

I spent like 5 min thinking what he meant by that😭

[short iris]

LMAO

[slim ermine]

does anyone here know how to replicate the playable larva bug on console?

[short iris]

Not consistently, it’s a thing on pc as well and it seems to just very rarely happen if the client and host die in a specific way. I could be pulling this one out of my ass but it seems like it might be more common as void fiend ?

Take the last part with a grain of salt

[quiet flower]

hahaha that's hilarious. I went to brunch so I didn't get to clear that up quickly for ya.

Thank you for the thoughtful answer.

[frail merlin]

If I ever feel like the lag is unbearable, I just gotta remember the times I cluelessly choose railgunner in a multiplayer match

[short iris]

Got a stage 1 with two crit printers, an energy drink printer and three scrappers?? Feels weirdly unnatural

[frail merlin]

It always feels so wasted whenever there a good printer on stage 1 instead of the higher stages, three scraper is a bit unusual tho.

[short iris]

Risk of rain giving me three scrappers on stage one rather then a single scrapper on stage 4 or 5

[wispy crypt]

Yeah I really wish the cap was one scrapper per stage because its just dumb that there can be multiple

Its especially frustrating when they are right next to one another like youre gonna miss one of them and see the other

[royal geyser]

How does rro2 run on switch? Should I buy it?

[wispy crypt]

Relatively bad but it makes up for it by being EXTREMELY resistent to crashing

Bugs used to be quite crazy but in the current update you wont really notice most of them unless you know theyre there

[royal geyser]

Im considering it because of motion controls

Since on PlayStation it’s hard to aim

[wispy crypt]

I mean aiming is just a matter of practice

Getting the hang of soft tilting the stick is definitely a huge help with aiming

[royal geyser]

Im trying to get better but im praying they add motion controls to PlayStation too

Im used to splatoon

[river osprey]

motion controls is a sick addition.. and ive never had too much trouble with ror2 on the switch.. people meme, and before the dlc drop the multiplayer was a bit dead.. and after the multiplayer was unplayable due to connection issues in the coding, not sure if they have fixed that yet or not..

[royal geyser]

I think I’ll stick to PlayStation

[wispy crypt]

I mean personally I never experienced any connection issues

[river osprey]

i was under the impression the connection issues was on all the console releases (after dlc drop)

[royal geyser]

I’ve never tried this soft tilting thing so I’ll give it a shot

[wispy crypt]

Well multiplayer did feel a bit scuffed at the beginning though that mightve just been because my only memory is of a run with some guy from japan which for me is on the other side of the world

Though it also quickly got better

[river osprey]

interesting, i connected with several people on the switch release and we would get through 1 map and then the connection would drop between that map and the next.. i've got a hardwire connection and this was every game i connected with.. still love it for the single player though.. also just checked to see if there was an update, there was not.. kind of disappointing on that note

[wispy crypt]

I dont remember disconnecting in any multiplayer games

Except for one but in that one I crashed the hosts game by spamming meteorite 15 times at the same time

[river osprey]

@wispy crypt do you all have the ability to move the pots around abandoned aqueducts?

[wispy crypt]

No console got those things glued to the ground

[ebon gust]

It's horrible

[river osprey]

@royal geyser it's such a good game.. but the slack with keeping the console versions up to date, i couldnt recommend it for anyone not purchasing on the PC..

[wispy crypt]

Wdym by keeping the console versions up to date

[royal geyser]

I got the achievement with engineer

[wispy crypt]

All future updates will be synced for pc and consoel

Tbh if it wasnt for that pc would prolly already have sots

[river osprey]

the ongoing problems since the dlc drop, these channels were full of anxious folks waiting for news on that dlc for the consoles for well over a year, and the wait was being strung along by the promise of reworking the entire coding... which i can not confirm if it was or was not done.. not to mention that not 1 update to fix problems since dlc drop and itll be a year in 2 and a half more months... all in the meantime returns was released and no sooner than the dlc drop was there talk of a new dlc being released for ROR2...

TLDR; great game, good buy on PC.. id recommend purchasing on consoles after the problems are worked out, and all content is available.

[wispy crypt]

But all current content is available

Aside from literally 2 music tracks that due to a bug had to be temporarily replaced

And most other significant bugs have either been toned down drastically or been fixed entirely

[river osprey]

upcoming dlc, bugs not addressed. no assurance that the new dlc will ever come to consoles, and where have they been toned down? ive not had a single update addressing any of them.

not since the dlc at least.

[wispy crypt]

The only 4 actual impactful bugs I can think of rn is the moon lag bug, the doubled item effects, some clipping issues usually only seen on mithrix and phantom collision

[wispy crypt]

What?

A gearbox representative has literally mentioned that sots will come to pc and console at the same date

With delays likely only being caused because of some issues with some regions

[river osprey]

and this was the same word for sotv, if i recall correctly

[wispy crypt]

They built console from the ground up

If gearbox didnt care about syncing sots up for console and pc then pc players would probably already have it

[river osprey]

who knows? facts and experience tells me that, in good faith, i can recommend the game on PC... and id not send someone in to be disheartened by something that is in fact out of either of our hands.

[wispy crypt]

Im just seeing the pattern of console bugs becoming less and less noticeable and would presume that that pattern is going to keep going

[short iris]

The big difference is that was hopoo speaking on something they had 0 control over

[wispy crypt]

They literally took so long with sotv so that they would be able to stamp out bugs and sync up versions faster and better

[river osprey]

if you're actually seeing updates that are improving the game, then that is great. im not seeing this on the switch at the moment.

[wispy crypt]

Then you arent looking good enough

[short iris]

Ngl the thing I'm kinda pissed off about is that they didn't really... Tell us the full patch notes so it's really hard to know what's fixed, what isn't, what needs to be double checked and if stuff like the vields time stopping again is intentionally

[river osprey]

switch version was 1.2.2.1 and has been since the dlc dropped

it isnt a matter of looking, there has been nothing changed.

[wispy crypt]

Thats just wrong

[short iris]

I can't speak about the preformance but as the person that spend probably a hundred+ hours documenting bugs through various iterations of the game versions, this one is WWAAYYY better then anniversary for example

[wispy crypt]

The devotion update after the dlc update fixed the majority of bugs introduced in that version

[short iris]

Idk if I'd say majority, I mean they only listed down four bug fixes and we know of two others that are confirmed by the commiunity to be fixed

[river osprey]

maybe im wrong, let me check and see if multiplayer is functional

[short iris]

It works on ps and Xbox

[wispy crypt]

And it works on switch

Better than ever imo

[river osprey]

i wonder why the pots still are immovable..

[wispy crypt]

Guess that bug wasnt important enough to be patched so soon

[river osprey]

im just hoping multiplayer works, fr

[wispy crypt]

After all pot rolling was never an intended feature and is also not used by most people

And actual pot transport ways like the primordial cube still work

[short iris]

Admittedly the amount of bugs they fixed is kinda worrying, especially since they said they're working on a patch for bugs since like day 2 of the console dlc and it fixed like 6, maybe? After like 6ish months

But there's only a handful of major bugs that need to be prioritized

The only one off the top of my head I can think of is void crit locking the fps on the moon to 3fps

[wispy crypt]

I personally just hope they dont get patches out only through content updazes

[short iris]

THIS!!!!

[wispy crypt]

It makes sense currently considering that they dont want to waste too much time getting each update through sony microsoft and nintendo before being able to actually release them

But during long time periods without content updates it would be nice to have patch updates

[short iris]

Yeah, cough cough working on patch day one to wait 8 months for verdant falls.... Still so confused if the patch Preston was talking about back then has bug fixes that are just being held off until sots or like, what

[ebon gust]

Isn't it hard to do quick patch updates on console
Unlike PC, they have to jump thru some hoops with Sony n Microsoft

[wispy crypt]

Exactly

But after sots I would imagine there wont be new content for a while if not forever

[short iris]

Unsure, I know updates take verification on the platforms but I know a lot of different games that manage to get hotfixes out super quick. Not trying to compare, but 8 months just seems extreme

[short iris]

I'd be baffled if gearbox bought out risk of rain 2 to do one dlc and then jump straight to what I assume would be risk of rain 3 (hostile worlds reboot )

[ebon gust]

There are ways to avoid it, like having the game in pre-alpha or smth

(That's why Fortnite is that way)

[ebon gust]

Risk of rain 2 returns

[short iris]

Main example I was thinking was don't starve together, when a content update comes out for that game consoles get like 3ish hotfixes in the time span of two weeks

[ebon gust]

Interesting

[covert coral]

So how long are we betting till Seekers of The Storm gets it's console port, since if I'm correct the PC version comes first

[wispy crypt]

No theyre simultaneous

[sweet edge]

Everything they've talked about indicates that they're launching all at the same time

[short iris]

Nope, it should 99% confident be at the same time as pc

[wispy crypt]

Aside from maybe region specific delaye

[short iris]

We get the release date in the showcase on the 21st

[sweet edge]

yeah I guess we'll find out in a couple days haha

[wispy crypt]

Which knowing my luck is probably gonna be europe for switch specifically just like with sotv

[short iris]

You honestly never know at this point with the history of console LOL

[sweet edge]

If it really isn't simultaneous launch though, I'd bet it's just a few weeks difference.

[covert coral]

"Couple of days" I've got trust issues after SOTV

[sweet edge]

not anything like SOTV

[wispy crypt]

Keep in mind they had to rebuild the entire console versions for that update

[short iris]

God I hope not

[wispy crypt]

This time they have nowhere near as much work to do

[covert coral]

That poor soul kept count

[short iris]

Calvin my goat. BTW what happened to his account if anyone knows? I still see him here but it's a new account

[covert coral]

That was Calvin?

Huh, would've never guessed.

[short iris]

When I was doing a bunch of reading on old messages I noticed there was a load of messages form this deleted account and I realized It was Calvin once I saw it was the account that did the day counts

[mighty citrus]

Wait CALVIN IS GONE??

[short iris]

NONONO just the old account I think

[mighty citrus]

Oh thank god

[short iris]

I'd be devastated, a pillar of this very, niche sub commiunity

[mighty citrus]

True

[short iris]

I've been looking for this clip of someone getting voidling to instantly die because of vrit in the intro cutscene since it's not considered a boss during that but I've just been tearing my hair out trying to find the clip of this in the discord but I SWEAR it's real

Replicating it sounds like a pain in the ass I gotta be honest but I might resort to it

[mighty citrus]

I CANNOT wait for the sots soundtrack on Spotify

[short iris]

Real

[mighty citrus]

Yane no mori gotta be my new fav ror2 song

[wispy crypt]

I always forget to listen to the sots tracks in time

Gonna have to do that later

[mighty citrus]

I was there for the premier, my face literally was stuck in shock

[short iris]

I'm so curious where all of these are gonna play

[mighty citrus]

Im assuming the different songs in parts are the new final boss

Ost

[wispy crypt]

Well we concluded that tlalocan is likely going to be the false son theme given the into the doldrums and double fucking rainbow leitmotifs

[mighty citrus]

Oh really?

[wispy crypt]

It makes sense thematically

[short iris]

Wait thats fucking awesome, like double fucking rainbow reffering to the worms and doldrums reffering to uh the uh something else lore relevant probably right

[wispy crypt]

Dfr is provis theme and into the doldrums plays in delta but more importantly the coast which is where auri is

[short iris]

I never realized Dfr was actually provis theme

[wispy crypt]

I mean its quite literally the song that plays when you fight him

[short iris]

Yeah no it never clicked for me 😭

Never actually noticed icl

God the sots reveal trailer is SO GOOD MAN

[wispy crypt]

Cant wait for the chef showcase in 3 days

Though I do wish I knew at which exact hour its happening because I have no idea what the times that were mentioned are

[short iris]

I'd be so funny. So unbelievably funny. If they just revealed who the 3rd character is without letting people find out blind

[short iris]

You're in Germany right

[wispy crypt]

Ye

[short iris]

We have the same time zone so I think it's 7am?

[wispy crypt]

fucking hell

[short iris]

My ass is waking up at 5sm to be 100% sure. I AINT GONNA MISS IT

[wispy crypt]

Im gonna stay up til that time

[short iris]

Damn good luck

[wispy crypt]

Im not gonna get my schedule right in 3 days

[short iris]

Up to 7am, sheez

[wispy crypt]

I mean its 4 rn

[short iris]

Yea i guess it depends how fucked your sleep is already

[wispy crypt]

Then again if I wanna do some thorough analysing I should probably be well rested

Ill just set up an alarm and go to bed early

Cant let down the lads over in theorycrafting

[sweet edge]

It's happening at 10AM on the west coast of the US.

So if y'all are in europe it'll probably be closer to 5-7 PM

[wispy crypt]

Oh thats light work

[short iris]

I CONFUSED PM WITH AM FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER I'M COOKED 😭😭😭

[mighty citrus]

IM SO READY

[sweet edge]

[wispy crypt]

I wont have to fix my sleep schedule yippe

[mighty citrus]

I know gearbox deffo cooked with this I have faith 🙏

[short iris]

Was lowkey looking forward to going to sleep at like 7pm...

[short iris]

The content itself looks fucking incredible, it has to be said

[mighty citrus]

IKR

[wispy crypt]

The stages look very promising

[mighty citrus]

And of course the soundtrack is complete peak due to chris 🙏

[short iris]

My new hobby is just gonna be going into pub lobbies as seeker and helping people out

[wispy crypt]

The cover options are so unique and varying

[short iris]

Dude when they first showed off the stages I was already under the impressions that they're gonna be the best stages in the game yet, they look actually incredible

[wispy crypt]

It takes a decent amount of captain or engi gameplay to pay that close attention to the stage layout

But yeah they look really amazing

[mighty citrus]

Did yall see the funny little worm enemy in the seeker trailer?

[wispy crypt]

Aesthetically and structurally

[wispy crypt]

The scorch wurms yes

[short iris]

Magma worm jr 🥹

[wispy crypt]

I already forgot they were in that trailer because ive seen them countless times before

[mighty citrus]

Saw some new items too

[short iris]

I am SO. SO CURIOUS, what the white item that "splits damage" does or means

[mighty citrus]

Wonder if we'll get new void items?

[short iris]

That seems like a down side since like the best scaling stuff is based off of total damage right???

[short iris]

It'd be a little silly incase you don't have sotv but you have sots and vice versa

[mighty citrus]

Oh true

[wispy crypt]

From what we have observed you get a green ring around you when you get hit that turns red after a few seconds which we assume means you take delayed damage when that ring breaks (there wasnt any footage of the ring disappearing sadly)

[mighty citrus]

Cannot wait to see new reds tho

[short iris]

Huh.... I thought it'd be dealt damage not taken, I guess that seems... That actually seems REALLY good as long as it doesn't delete OSP

For a white? Damn

[wispy crypt]

We dont know if it will actually take away some of the damage taken or if it just puts some of it on a small delay

[short iris]

Hoping to see more influencial and varied reds, kinda synergistic like pocket icbm, clover and others that make the run feel unique instead of double healing or heal aoe on death 😭

[wispy crypt]

There also seems to be short cooldown on when you can get a new ring as only 2 appeared after multiple hits on seeker from imps

[mighty citrus]

TRUEEEEE

[short iris]

Honestly just delaying it seems very good, even more so depending on how it stacks

[mighty citrus]

My favourite item ever came from sotv so im praying for more

[short iris]

What,, what if the dlc added an alt engi primary,, ahaha...

[mighty citrus]

I jus want more ability options for these new survs

And that seems like the case

[wispy crypt]

An alt captain secondary would be the world for me

[mighty citrus]

Plus we know we are getting new skins for other survs right?

[short iris]

TRUE TRUE ACTUALLY TRUE. fuck the taser omg I haven't used it once in the two captain runs I did today

[wispy crypt]

I like the taser... to an extend but I feel that something different would be interesting

[short iris]

We know we are getting a new acrid and arti skin so I'd hope it's for everyone

[wispy crypt]

longer cooldown but with a freeze pls gearbox my dream

[mighty citrus]

Begging for a new railgunner skin tbh

[wispy crypt]

Its likely therell be a new skin for everyone

[short iris]

Maybe a captain secondary that interacts with the shotgun would be cool

[wispy crypt]

Acrid arti and merc already got confirmed ones (merc not beinf officially revealed but spotted in some promotional material)

[mighty citrus]

I wouldn't be against getting skin packs in the game tbh

[short iris]

Idk about if this would fit for a secondary but a captain ability that doubles attack speed for a short period but doesn't let you charge the shotgun would be right up my alley

[short iris]

Forgot how ass the railgunner skin is 😭

[mighty citrus]

I HATE IT

[short iris]

If the acrid skin is anything to go off of the new skins are gonna be fire

[wispy crypt]

I mean wouldnt be that crazy considering speedshooting is already a thing

[short iris]

Oh yea true

Depending on when the dlc releases it might actually have me tearing apart with the hardest choice of my life. Vampire survivors comes out on PS on the 29th and I've been waiting 3 and a half years to play that game 😭

The alt ability for seeker is very reminiscing of kings Bible or whatever the name of that weapon is

4 items on the entirety of stage one. I love you distant roost

[mighty citrus]

Wonder if they'll change sundered grove somehow

Crazy how my least favorite stage has my favorite soundtrack

[quartz bay]

vampire survivors is a pretty fun game, tho it can be a bit tedious to 100%

def worth the 5 bucks regardless

tho you could probably get away with getting both (assuming the sots dlc is gonna be 15$ like sotv)

[wispy crypt]

I was very sceptical of the idea of content locked behind both dlcs but if its just some void items I think its fine to get that small bonus for having and using both

After all its just more content

[frail merlin]

I remember him mentioning his account got hacked once.

[gleaming owl]

Another day another BARELY LOST ECLIPSE 1 RUN

This time to Mithrix pizza

Chimera tank got me half hp, I had to manually sprint cause I wasn't gaining enough ground by walking and mid air he pizza'd directly on me

I prayed at least it would hit around me NOPE... DEAD ON

angry doesn't describe this feeling

[ebon gust]

Tough times 😔 you'll get there eventually

[dusky rivet]

Found this document about sots made by grovtender and ratback in the theory channel, so i decided to share this here because of how well made it is.
https://docs.google.com/document/u/1/d/10OQ0A6XGNwczuhnmkask8qVAGruAdjm9ZNcTPevac2U/mobilebasic

[short iris]

It's really good. I love it

[short iris]

Ok.... Can someone on pc with a full monster logbook send me screenshot of both the sections. Need to double check something

[short iris]

Also is the headstompers jump boost being doubled a thing on pc currently? I found a really interesting quirk that might potentially be really cool

[dusky rivet]

Nope it's not the same on pc, Im fact I could only find 2 bugs(3 with thunderslam) that were the same on both console and pc.

[short iris]

Mhm that's intresting. Idk if I should wait for sots to come out to patch this bug and not even consider it or play around with it rn butttt... @wispy crypt Found out that the headstompers boost is actually an extra jump that triggers on the 2nd frame of you holding jump. This means you can store It. With combination of hopoo feathers being way better than normal jumps in every way, storing the headstompers boost/running off the ledge and then using the double jump with the headstompers boost gives you ABSURD height, and I think it's a pillar skip? Even if it isn't I think it let's you get max headstompers value no matter what? Or very close

Smarter people than me like cap could probably find some crazy tech with this, I already find it nice for proccing wax quail with headstompers

Probably the reason host skip works?

[frail merlin]

Yeah I noticed it too, actually a very good way to get extra height with merc secondary.

[short iris]

.... Really funny oversight

I think. Blind pests and lumarian logbooks are switched in position

[frail merlin]

Bdw Host skip did work before the devotion update but it barely gave you any extra height like a really weak pc version

[wispy crypt]

I actually tried that in the same run as those 2 clips I showed and it sadly was barely not enough to be a pillar skip on its own

I tried from multiple angles and locations but ultimately never found a high enough spot on that tree to stand on to refresh the jumps

[short iris]

Awwwwwwww man, probably gonna get nerfed when they fix the doubled effects but I'm excited to experiment with it once it's patched

[frail merlin]

Yeah I assume the pc version is still stronger than console because it’s boosted by its physics instead of a bug

[wispy crypt]

Well host skip works on a different basis than our item bug

From what ive heard its more of a type of trimp than jump

[frail merlin]

No way, you are right. 1 plus bug to the list.

[short iris]

Do we even know if the consistent setup for host on pc works for console but I never got it work myself and soon after it was when I took a break from ror2

[wispy crypt]

If we are nitpicking then I also want to quickly mention that while the doubled enemy logs on switch are gone they still have 2 separate entries in the statistics

[frail merlin]

Yeah, I remember gearbox promising us the same physics but we ended up with only a weaker version. Like the merc trimp is like 3x stronger on pc😔.

[wispy crypt]

So for example you could have beetles on your most deaths to list twice

[frail merlin]

Now that is some lazy work

[wispy crypt]

Its a simple oversight

Barely anyone looks at the statistics

[frail merlin]

If they are gonna fix the double log book entries, one would assume they are not just gonna do it visual but maybe they just gave up entirely on fixing the stats.

[wispy crypt]

True that

[short iris]

Ok It itself won't do it but if you have any movement skills whatsoever you can do it by standing on top of the island with lunars.prob isn't worth documenting or anything since it'll just get nerfed anyways 😔

[frail merlin]

Another easy pillar skip for merc

[short iris]

You should send a screenshot of this lol

https://youtu.be/Cn9m-e2JLRQ?si=w0doe2oI0LU5A5Sa

Bro

[frail merlin]

You clearly died to mithrix verbal abuse.

[noble furnace]

The shockwave can go up the ramp.

[wispy crypt]

Theres no way

Holy shit looking at that clip it actually can

When was that a thing?

[noble furnace]

Always

[short iris]

WHATTTTTT+????????? I MEAN I ASSUMED I WAS TOO LOW BUT WHHATT

[wispy crypt]

I never noticed because my wife carries

[noble furnace]

Yep, the shockwave can go up the ramp around 3/4 of the ramp so if you are down that range you will get hit.

[noble furnace]

Especially right now because it can carry you twice.

[short iris]

I am here to confirm... The lost seer glitch is run wide for all players. A PS5 player doesn't get hit as bad as I did but it still tanks it like crazy

And it IS based off of deleting rolley pollies aswell as getting majorly worse for each deletion

His ass is not going to voidling so I'll have to find out if going to the next stage fixes it myself

[frail merlin]

This will teach them to never pick up lost seers -gearbox probably

[noble furnace]

Okay, so... NO IN THE MOON. Gotcha.

[short iris]

Should point out that the existence of this glitch and the existence of loader being silly with alt special means none of the QA or play testers used either of these in the game either on the moon or just used the alt special ever

https://tenor.com/view/absolute-cinema-cinema-bruceoartista-gif-4182920308746944871

[short iris]

It gets SO bad 😭😭 (sound replaced by glue on the roach because I was talking to someone lol)

[lament cave]

Holy frames batman

[frail merlin]

Kinda wanna make me test how low it can get if it’s gonna keep scaling

[lament cave]

Risk of rain 2 turns into a power point presentation

[short iris]

If you do, Goodluck, make sure to play huntress or else you will not deal any damage

[vast rapids]

once I got a super long run and got like 5seconds per frame

[wispy crypt]

Holy fucking christ its just like the agony of my own clip

That explains why I never got the lag to be this bad in any other run because only in this one was I sleepy enough to pick up lost seers without thinking

[woven pelican]

Lost seers lens? More like lost frames lens gottem 😎

[short iris]

I DID IT, I FOUND IT. THE ANWSER. Ok so I've had a theory. And it has been proven correct. Along with FURTHER confirmation from seeing Mr John's Diablo footage from a month ago where the lag "freshly kicks in". Recently ronny brought up how there's a 2nd instance of the bug that causes the moon to also lag heavily but only during the escape sequence but nobody could pin point why it happens so the conclusion was just "must be something to do with void items" BUT WE WE WERE FOOLISH!!! SO FOOLISH. THE ANWSER WAS RIGHT BEFORE OUR EYES. IT'S THE EXACT SAME THING AS LOST SEERS

IF A VOID REAVER DELETES THE ROLLEY POLLEYS THE SAME THING HAPPENS

I CRACKED THE CODE!!!!

[wispy crypt]

Not sure if that happened when that escape lag kicked in but its worth investigating

[frail merlin]

A couple of days to late @short iris , I figured it out quite a while ago. Just no one cared at the time

[wispy crypt]

Actually

It has to do with that aoe they usually leave on the ground

[short iris]

fuck

[frail merlin]

Myabe but it’s not my job to figured it out, it’s up to the janitor to fix it

[short iris]

I'm assuming it'd be something like the game trying to spawn the puddles constantly but not being able to

Do you think you could elaborate or is that all you know

[wispy crypt]

I mean yeah that is what ive been thinking

[short iris]

Mhm

[frail merlin]

Well time to learn how to use the cheat console and test it on pc, if they leave a flame puddle or not.

[short iris]

Cheat console on pc would be HUGE for finding out stuff tbh

[short iris]

Backward engenieering at its finest

[wispy crypt]

They dont

[frail merlin]

God Chris, there’s a lot of commands😭

[wispy crypt]

But I would assume the lag comes from the game trying to spawn a puddle on a position that doesnt exist

Instead of ending the puddle process

[short iris]

The error logs behind the scenes: 😼

John Diablo do you want access to the spreadsheet

[wispy crypt]

No please

[short iris]

Oh also @frail merlin I know what 141 is and honestly I think it's been kept intentionally, it's the same thing that happens to mithrix on phase 4, where if you hit any boss the first frame they spawn they are no longer considered a boss

[wispy crypt]

Every time I looked through that I would have accidentally moved things around

[short iris]

Fair

[frail merlin]

Ah ok

[short iris]

It's funny how fucked the logbook statistics are

[frail merlin]

After like a long time I finally found the command for the stages and it spawned me in the old commencement💀. Anyways the exploders does not drop a flame puddle when by lost seers.

It is interesting how the game will lag for a short bit after killing an exploder tho. So I assume console is just in a repeat of whatever is making it lag like that.

[short iris]

Whenever I go peep in the pc bug reports chat I always see people posting logs and most of the times it's just the game repeating an error loads. I'm assuming pc just has a fail save in this scenario where it stops trying to force it where console doesn't

I'd say we pretty certainly figured this out, admittedly I didn't do any of the major lifting

Also old commencement holy shit

[frail merlin]

I’ve seen a lot of pc report where the game is clearly modded

[wispy crypt]

Ye it seems my assumption was at least mostly true

Whatever actually causes that lag spike ends on pc but continues forever on console

Instead of giving up, console relentlessly tries to fit the square in the nonexistent square hole

[short iris]

It's trying to fit the square into the cylinder hole 💔

E2 modifier and trespass with a shit ton speed do not match well my ankles are getting shattered 😭

I gave an equipment drone a radar scanner and I remember it being nearly permament uptime but they just ARNT doing it

[frail merlin]

equipment drone gotta target a enemy to use the equipment, so if there is no near it will simply not activate any equipment.

[short iris]

Ahhhh thanks

Spare drone parts works on back up right

[frail merlin]

Yeah, I thinks so.

[short iris]

Awesomesauce

[minor dawn]

Is pot rolling impossible now? Haven't played since pre-sotv

also wondering if the beefed up death squad spawns right when you get out of the starting cave on the moon?

[short iris]

Yes, and gone, respectively (I really misread that message bad I had to edit this thrice 😭)

[noble furnace]

Yes, the pots can't be rolled but you can push them with railgunner default mines push.
And the death squad is fixed since SotV.

[short iris]

Oh shit giving backup to an equipment drone when you have drone parts makes the summoned drones gain drone parts like they're yours

[minor dawn]

Thank you to both, guess it's not that bad considering we have void items now. I am so glad those enemies are gone though. They were such dicks

[short iris]

Esentric vase you have always been in my heart

[minor dawn]

Exactly, run would likely be a bust unless I found one lol

[frail merlin]

Console exclusive mini boss

[minor dawn]

ptsd triggered

https://youtu.be/qbWRr3iIruI?si=8-7GScEgYk1xCRah

I HAVE ZERO RECOLLECTION OF THIS

[ebon gust]

At first I didn't even realize the video restarted, quite a nice loop

[noble furnace]

<@&559786374228738069>

[short iris]

Aww man did I miss an epic giveaway 😔

[noble furnace]

Yep

[short iris]

It feels kinda surreal that the showcase and release date is all happening in like 35 hours... Getting butterflies from it

Risk of rain has no right being as big of a part of my life as It has and is

[wispy crypt]

Man I miss these

It was actually really fun to learn how to handle their bullshit by using the inside structures as cover to even get access to the moon

Certainly woulda helped a lot more people at figuring out how to not die to them all the time

Like that specific scenario was so awesome I still remember my first attempts even after a over year has passed since

[short iris]

Died to mithrix P4 for the first time in months bc I thought I was behind cover but shurikens big ass hitbox got me 💔 oh well

[rancid comet]

I feel the same for many games

[frail merlin]

The whole point of why I have this clip is because people kept complaining about dying so much to the horde

[white quarry]

I WILL watch the stream at 1am

[quartz bay]

ill be there as well

so excited i started a run since its been a while since i last played, already won 🤭

[short iris]

How it feels to have several friends that think clover is the best item in the game and doesn't compare to headset 💔

[quartz bay]

speaking of clover the following run i did gamble most of my items after stage one at newt for a clover and was handsomely rewarded

i guess it sorta just depends, sometimes its goated and sometimes barely helpful

[short iris]

Juicy run, damn

[dusky rivet]

I need disputed origin to do another switch video, a bit late now they have fixed some of the bugs tho.

[quartz bay]

was really hoping too so more people can see the horrors of no frames

the "the vid ends if i say something negative about the switch version" is a classic

[wispy crypt]

Well he purposefully keeps ror2 from updating so he is one of the few if not the only person that regularly plays that still has access to that old version

[frail merlin]

Kinda forgot about that, I do remember some people when the release of the dlc was near just simply copying and saving an old version instead of avoiding updates. But I doubt you can do that on switch.

[wispy crypt]

Oh wait I forgor

I dont think you guys put this on the spreadsheet but (likely due to multiplayer delays) I was able to "grab" the artifact here without even remotely being close to it

[frail merlin]

I don’t think multiplayer delays works like that and it didn’t look like there was any desync. Probably got something to do with the messy multiplayer/host system.

[wispy crypt]

Well it seems that the game thought I was down there where the artifact was

I think you can even see one of the microbot zaps being emitted from down there

[quartz bay]

theres is probably a cracked update file of pre dlc floating around in the internet somewhere

my hacked switch is still on pre dlc lol

[frail merlin]

Yeah, sounds about right

[short iris]

Will add

Oh shit ronny added it, thanks a ton

Dude you have NO idea how nice it is to not be the only one doing this

This shit was GRUELING for the first month 😭😭😭

[frail merlin]

you were basically speedrunning the list, the first couple month you made it

[short iris]

Going back like 5 days ago to revisit it was kinda painful because you could tell that some parts of it were definitely in a rush. I tried to polish it up as best as I could and will in the future

the dlc release for me is gonna be like the gif of the guy with a tornado rapidly approaching him

[frail merlin]

Trap for railgunner main

[mighty citrus]

You Rizzlers best be ready for tomorrow 💪

[wispy crypt]

Yeah Im extremely curious what new console bullshit the dlc will introduce

[frail merlin]

I’m fully expecting the dlc to have a buggy release

[short iris]

The dlc could be as buggy as possible just PLEASE do hotfixes and make them have more then 3 bug fixes🙏🙏

[frail merlin]

Probably the last run I do before the showcase because wow that was exhausting.

[short iris]

Ok genuine question how do yall go from the start of commencement to the soup island because I lost several big winning streaks and amazing runs because I just get Merced instantly while trying to get to the soup. Is there a better path I can take? A better way to dodge them?? It just feels like If I fight them it's a death wish and if I avoid them at all costs it's a 50/50

[frail merlin]

Well, at least with railgunner you could have used the mines in a much efficient way. With other characters that is slow is just run fast, at least with engi he has some meatshield.
actually just get some drones.

[short iris]

I had 11 drones that run total during commencement 😭

[frail merlin]

Useless every single one of them, refused to shield you.

[short iris]

I'll keep the mines thing I mind, I forgot in the moment because seconds before the clip I lost an elixir and I was shitting myself in fear

Wonder if there's a guide on how to minmax railgunner movement

[frail merlin]

Maybe but I think learning it yourself through experience is more fun.

[noble furnace]

Welp, I just got new from a franchise I love but I feel concerned because of the recent events with it.
Borderlands 4 just got a teaser trailer.

[short iris]

What are the recent events genuine question

[noble furnace]

[short iris]

Is it the movie??

[frail merlin]

I remember the movie not having a so good reputation so probably

[short iris]

Chat do yall feel like verdant falls has more loot than other stage 1s, trying to see the general consensus on this

[wispy crypt]

Tbh I use either the middle ring or take the longer but safer route of going over the chains and the mass pillar cave

Though I lean more towards the mass pillar cave route because I dont feel as pressured with all those cover options nearby

Though my pathing can probably be optimised because I pretty much only play captain which limits the amount of gaps I can cross safely

[short iris]

I did a bunch of experimenting with headstompers and I FINALLY found out why it does the weird particle effect when falling and holding jump and how the jump height boost ACTUALLY works

[frail merlin]

Weird particle effect

[lunar vortex]

how many syringes for mult to fly on console?

[short iris]

The jump boost is a actually just a bif momentum boost upwards, like an extra jump, that triggers on the 2nd frame while inputting jump and tries to do so what I assume is also every other frame, and it can only preform the boost once per jump and can be stored to any point in space as long as you don't jump. This means that you can store it for double jumps by falling off edges or doing a one frame jump input. Or it can be used while a waterfountain or mushroom launches you up but this doesn't work when falling downwards. This is because it can ONLY Initiate while having upward momentum, if you fall off an edge while holding jump you can notice that the game will REPETEADLY leave a trail of headstompers jump particle effects behind you, the game keeps TRYING to give you the boost but It cannot, so if you use a commando slide during it, you'll initatie the boost. If you hold jump and run up a rough slope, it will initiate the boost. So if this all adds up it could lead to some intresting tech. Stacking headstompers with ion surge, rising thunder. Maybe even if you're below a vagrant and use your gountlet upwards, youd be able to get an ABSURD amount of heavy damage.

This could, potentially, stack with ANY upwards momentum from any source for maximum headstompers value

ARRGH but does it even matter if headstompers is gonna go back to its usual jump height, I keep forgetting it's absurd on console. None of this matters!!!!

[frail merlin]

Quite confusing but okay seems like you got it👍 also this now kinda makes me don’t wanna lose this bug now.

[short iris]

I'm actually losing my mind

https://youtu.be/ISRAnjsIWTQ?si=FhNRcwRPqJe-00YH

This is what happens if you do it REALLY well if done with commando slide

[frail merlin]

Ah ok, maybe I do some experimenting with merc if I ever get the item for once.

[short iris]

I'm not 100% sure what exactly happens in this instance BUT I think this let's you trimp at any angle, one's you won't be able to with wax quail

[short iris]

If you want to you could see if this works on pc the same way

[frail merlin]

I doubt it would because it would have been long found by some pc player if it did

I will still do some headstomper comparisons tomorrow, its a bit to late in the day to do it now.

[short iris]

Mhm

I'm trying to find anything on this anywhere, YouTube, discord, Google but I can't find anything

I'm kinda tempted to @ someone like cap because I do feel like this could be unexplored territory and a key to loads of tech. Once I'm done with this eclipse run I'll try seeing how all survivors could possible use this

https://youtu.be/3XJ659jE6Sc?si=nKoDQgAaIFn8Aofu

[frail merlin]

Im sure people like cap,race,disputed and others similar people would be interesting in this sort of tech but I have only seen cap a couple of times around here

[short iris]

Fuck it

[short iris]

@silent python really sorry to bother, but wondering if this tech has been explored or discovered. There's a bunch of text above this video explaining it and why it could lead to some crazy stuff, aswell as wonder if normal headstompers (currently console headstompers give double height) could benefit from this as drastically. I tired looking everywhere I could and I couldn't find anything explaining the jump boost indepth or take advantage of it's inner working to this extent. You're like, the tech guy, so you'd probably know this

The more I play around with this the more crazy it seems. As commando he can do this on nearly any geometry that's even slightly sloped or angled

[frail merlin]

Anyway I should probably go to sleep for today, if he doesn’t answer I check tomorrow instead

[short iris]

Sleep well ronny. Gotta be well rested for the showcase

[white quarry]

Gonna go to sleep for two hours, get up, watch the showcase, go back to bed

[short iris]

🔥

https://youtu.be/dN8TVbQmz5Q?si=dyEZmoy1AKakMwjc

Showcase of it on moon

[silent python]

This is a result of console being broken

[short iris]

My heart, shattered. No headstomper skill momentum stacking then? 💔

[silent python]

There's versions of this stuff on pc but console exaggerates it all by a lot

[short iris]

Sad, sad day. Thanks a lot for responding though, hope you enjoy the showcase tommorow (:

[silent python]

Can't wait for GB to announce The Loader solo game

[short iris]

Open world loader game

[coral timber]

I feel really schizophrenic rn i feel like my multishops are closing one of the pannels when i have card

Am i crazy

Usually happens with ? Ones

[quartz bay]

oh yea double headstompies height is probs gonna be patched once seekers drops

wrong reply

[quartz bay]

meant this, this will be missed

[hot hill]

@coral timber executive card technically has like a second or half second cooldown. If you try and spam interact with all three parts, you might hit the second one while the card is on cooldown and close it before you can get the third

[coral timber]

Yeah that actually makes sense

[hot hill]

Part of the reason for the cooldown could be because the card is "activated" by buying something

[short iris]

I am very curious to see how this tech will play out after headstompers is patched

I'm not crazy, trimping is WAYY worse on console right? Like skipping pillars by trimping up the ship is almost impossible on console right?

[quartz bay]

maybe not sure if anyone has tested that before

played old console for the lolz, stage 4 double mountain shrine, 3 knurls and i reroll them and get the best yellows

got pillar skip stage 5, all my runs recently have been so cruisey

[short iris]

I noticed that since verdant falls the old strategy of pinging an open chest or completed shrine to see if the ping stays or dissappears. got patched out. Can't tell if this is intentional since it stayed in the game for so long and didn't get addressed in the patch notes. Is it still in the game on pc or did they intentionally do it?

[mighty citrus]

Heyyo hello how are we all

[short iris]

I'm doing ok, extremely excited for the showcase in 14 hours roughly I think

5 runs to win an eclipse run as this bitch plant I hate u 😡

[mighty citrus]

Pulling an all nighter

[short iris]

Good luck 🫡hope you don't fall asleep right before it lol

[mighty citrus]

I might tbh

Watching dead meat

[tribal rover]

It's so over then

[torn fossil]

1% of gamblers keep going to hit big winnings

too bad i was playing acrid

[dusky rivet]

Its only real when you spend 15 min gambling on that one shrine

[quartz bay]

daily reminder 90% of gamblers quit before hitting it big

never stop gambling

[short iris]

Pretty much 6 hours left...

Had a dream about ror2 today, that I fucked around with my save data and lost everything again

[dusky rivet]

Im on my way home and I did see cap response to you when I woke up but im still curious about the weaker pc version. So i will still be doing the comparison and get some clip.

[wispy crypt]

Of the stomper bug?

Its way stronger on console because of the doubled item effect bug

Might as well just be a 2x multiplier to the momentum youd get on pc with the same way

[frail merlin]

Yeah but it’s only in strength, saving the jump is actually the same on pc.

[short iris]

Intresting.

Does doing it against a slope with the commando slide give good height?

[frail merlin]

No, it doesn’t even give any height.

[short iris]

Heartbreaking

Oh also if it's not too much to ask, is trimping more powerful on pc? For example on the moon, I NEVER have been able to skip pillars by trimping off the ship

I know I'm asking a lot, sorry about that

[frail merlin]

Trimping on pc is much more powerful because its scale with speed, so I tried doing it with zero speed item and it barely gave me any height but with 3 red whip it gave me much more.

[short iris]

Noted

One thing I've been wondering, can you take fall damage if milky chrisalis is active and you're dashing towards the ground

[frail merlin]

I really don’t think that is the case, you aren’t even falling when you are using the milky chrisalis.

[frail merlin]

Bonus clip I had to make smaller because it was to large

[short iris]

Noticed it's a thing on console literally 2 minutes ago and was like "huh. I wonder...,"

https://youtu.be/PlIbC-enYDE?si=eP1H0o6FLGfns4vB really specific and minor glitch but I wanna see it patched because the strat of pinging chests to see if they were open was cool ):

[frail merlin]

Huh weird because I’m pretty sure I can still ping chest on the switch, I use it frequently to check the prize

Oh never mind I just checked and you are right

[short iris]

My worst habit that actually has been fucking up my eclipse runs is that I always buy a drone the second I walk up to and so many times it's an equipment drone😭😭

[frail merlin]

[short iris]

Had a run with engi where an overloading clay dune strider boss fight took 15 minutes, my turrets were being one shot and it and an elite mushroom were in an infinite healing loop I Bearly could out damage 😭

[frail merlin]

Rorr? 👀

[quartz bay]

nope, actually hostile worlds ps and xbox port

[prime sky]

didn’t hostile worlds shut down

[quartz bay]

it did, but it would be so funny if it did end up being a hostile worlds port lol

[prime sky]

no one liked that game

risk of slop

[quartz bay]

very curious on who is developing rorr ps+xbox if hopoo games can't even update the pc version due to gearbox being bought by 2k

[wispy crypt]

On one hand I hope so for the countless people I told that there were no plans on it coming over

On the other hand I hope not so I didnt lie to the countless people I told that there were no plans on it coming over

[pale mountain]

Did it just say 27th August??

Couch coop??????

[frail merlin]

I did not expect that

[quartz bay]

is that exclusively ps5 and xbox series

[pale mountain]

Also a next gen console version poggeth

[quartz bay]

true

[pale mountain]

It really in on the 27th

Holy sheit

Also chef is looking great

[ornate loom]

♥️

[silent mural]

Yoooo fire stream

[white quarry]

Couch co op is nuts

[shell vessel]

will kbm be coming?

[silent mural]

How can you find seeker of the storm on xbox thoooo???

[short iris]

WHAT DID THEY MEAN BY EXTRA STUFF FOR THE NEW GEN VERSION BESIDE COUCH CO OP????????

[shell vessel]

yess

[wispy crypt]

4k 60 fps

[white quarry]

New exclusive items

[frail merlin]

Switch is gonna get cooked like how chef was burning up those enemies

[mighty citrus]

WE ARE WINNING

[quartz bay]

switch new targeted fps -1fps

[wispy crypt]

"Were gonna sync console with pc"
"Ok now we split the console versions from another"

[white quarry]

Lil disappointed pointed it’s not 120FPS 1480p but that’s okay

[short iris]

https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkxh6MIdiUhaBff3TcHCUx9GgcdXuehfRm3?si=dqkrOPre6_yDhckR

[mighty citrus]

Im still wondering who the third survivor will be

[short iris]

WHAT DID THEY MEAN BY THIS???????

[shell vessel]

wait so pc and console compatibility?

[wispy crypt]

You mean crossplay?

[shell vessel]

yuh

[mighty citrus]

Oh no not exclusive stuff please 🙏

[wispy crypt]

They never mentioned crossplay

[south tide]

Was it confirmed release date for all platforms is the 27th?

[short iris]

Does this mean there will be upgrade specific bugs????? HELLO????? BRO WHAT???? YOU CANT DO THIS TO ME GEARBOX

[shell vessel]

☹️

[mighty citrus]

Yurp

[quartz bay]

ill tell ya what it means once im able to download it

[south tide]

No waiting a whole year??? Amazing

[frail merlin]

Platforms specific feature does not mean crossplay

[mighty citrus]

Im assuming we'll be getting faster printers and recyclers too?

[shell vessel]

i know

[wispy crypt]

Seems like it

[short iris]

Is it avaible today??

[wispy crypt]

Why

[south tide]

God I hope. The mod for pc that makes them instant is so nice

[quartz bay]

not sure, i dont think so

[white quarry]

27th is 6 days away…

[silent mural]

Wait I can't find seeker of the storm on the Xbox store I just wanna pre-order

[mighty citrus]

People have been complaining abt it for ages

[short iris]

And. And. And. And????????? Don't do this to my baby darling of a spreadsheet. Gearbox please give me mercy. I DONT HAVE A PS5, I CANT TEST THIS, I DONT EVEN TRUST THAT THESE VERSIONS ARE PAIRED

[hot hill]

I've got it on Playstation but it seems kind of dumb if the couch coop doesn't come to pc too

[hot hill]

I've got one

[wispy crypt]

Well people are little whiny babies that cant shut up about a game not letting them transform all their items in half a second

[white quarry]

They don’t do pre orders on console because it is super annoying, at least not with sotv

[frail merlin]

Man I have wanted couch co op for a while so I can play with my 2 brothers, just gotta hope the mods will get there eventually.

[white quarry]

? Mods are never coming

[mighty citrus]

It is pretty annoying though is it not? Completely goes against moving around and having to stand still for ages

[south tide]

Don’t gotta be rude. People like different things dog

[wispy crypt]

It gets very annoying when people complain about intentional game design

[frail merlin]

Not the the switch but surely there will be attempts to replicate it on pc

[silent mural]

Well we'll isn't it CHEF

[pale mountain]

It would be nice qol

[mighty citrus]

Anyways, I think the third surv is the false son

[south tide]

But it makes sense to not like that feature. Ror is a fast paced game why slow it down by having to wait for printers and scrappers

[short iris]

Ok it will be available today. It seems like this is it but I have A LOT OF QUESTIONS AND I'M KINDA PANICKING AND SHAKING. Will this still have multiplayer with ps4 and PS5 players, will this introduce new bugs, will this mean that they have to develop even more seperate versions of the game. Im so worried

[wispy crypt]

So that you cant just dump all your stuff in a printer and instead have to figure out the survival element of it

[silent mural]

The Third survivor is the friends we made along the way

[wispy crypt]

Just like the tp events but smaller

[lunar vortex]

any physics update?

[mighty citrus]

So... Is the next gen update today or...?

[silent mural]

Probably on release

[frail merlin]

Glad to see gearbox not completely ignoring console and the dlc looks very promising. Now I just hope it don’t get rushed

[white quarry]

God no, platforms wouldn’t allow that, even if they did they would need to build their own integrated modding platform, have people USE it, people actually have to go through the effort of porting mods, and then bug testing and extra development fixes

[quartz bay]

i forgot activies are a thing lol
i don't ever look at the ps trophy things

[south tide]

But it’s an issue especially on console because you have to scroll through a menu with a controller and on looping runs it gets to the point where it’s almost never worth it to scrap because of the length of scrapping items. I’m not trying to say you’re wrong I’m just saying it’s a valid complaint to have about the design

[frail merlin]

I mean just a split screen mods I have seen a lot of familiar mods in other games

[south tide]

Just like it’s fine that you like the mechanic

[lunar vortex]

is there anymore update or that's all?

[quartz bay]

i hope moving saves is straight forward because i dont wanna do all those achievements again

[white quarry]

This update isn’t really useful for me but great for others

[mighty citrus]

Lord know gearbox lowkey cooked with this

[south tide]

Only lowkey?

[short iris]

Wait so is the new versions gonna have new bug fixes..???????

[mighty citrus]

Nah nah HIGHKEY

[south tide]

Almost definitely but it’ll absolutely introduce new bugs. Such is game design

[wispy crypt]

The menu scrolling I get behind but I dont think faster scrappers and printers are a good change for the game because it just gets rid of the aspect of having to multi manage surviving while converting items

[frail merlin]

I don’t wanna get my hopes up again, so I wait until the release happens

[white quarry]

Maybe the Xi construct will overcome Parkinson’s

[wispy crypt]

Probably

[short iris]

If the new versions gets bug fixes will the old ones get them with sotv..?maybe

[mighty citrus]

POT ROLLING IS BACK BABY

[short iris]

I'm so. Worried. I'm actually so worried.

[south tide]

That’s fair

[frail merlin]

Wydm?

[quartz bay]

ill tell ya if anything is different 🫡

[wispy crypt]

Fortunately we have you, ronny, calvin and me to go inspect each version

[south tide]

Say sike rn*

[white quarry]

Yeah… I do feel like there will be some game breaking bugs just for console

[mighty citrus]

Sotv console released made pots unable to be moved so you couldn't get free bands it twas a bug

[short iris]

Thank you so much, means a lot. But I'd be lying if I said this didn't sound disastrous with the track record

[frail merlin]

Yeah I know but where do you know it’s getting fixed

[mighty citrus]

Surely it is, its a very big problem

[white quarry]

How many people here play with 4K enabled

[wispy crypt]

Its not a big issue really

[frail merlin]

I have seen plenty of big problems getting past gearbox

[wispy crypt]

There are still several other methods of pressing plates

[quartz bay]

my tv doesn't support 4k unfortunately 💔

[mighty citrus]

Yeah but this one completely stops new players from unlocking bands unless playing with a friend

[wispy crypt]

o7

[wispy crypt]

No

Theres effigy of grief, fmp dropping lunar coins, primordial cube to kidnap the pods, captain, engi and loader who each can press them on their own

[wispy crypt]

Potrolling is arguably the least beginner friendly of them all

[white quarry]

95% of people (who can) play with their console on 120FPS 1480p, instead of 60FPS 4K

[gleaming nova]

Is 4 player split screen too much for the PS5 and Series X/S?

It's great to have the feature finally added to the game (especally since I have been playing with the split screen mod on PC) But I was really hoping we would get 4 player split screen

[mighty citrus]

I think it'd be impossible

[frail merlin]

Engineer???

[noble furnace]

I am on vacation and I can barely watch anything because my mobile data is going up and down.

[white quarry]

27th.

[hallow oracle]

Next thing we need now they made local co-op is cross platform

[quartz bay]

you have a xbox series right? just know you're gonna be eating good

[frail merlin]

Wait there is a mod for it already? I didn’t find any last time I searched.

[wispy crypt]

That wont happen

[white quarry]

Every time I wanna play ror2 I gotta go into settings, change my video mode, restart, then do the same thing again when I stop

[noble furnace]

Huh?

[hallow oracle]

I can wish 😭😭

[heady frigate]

What are the chances cross play is being added with the console stuff

[quartz bay]

theres gonna be a upgraded version of ror2 for xbox series and ps5 dropping soon

[sweet edge]

0%

[white quarry]

0%

[mighty citrus]

Still impossible

[heady frigate]

Or atleast having ror2 being added to the Xbox play anywhere line

[mighty citrus]

Im assuming both versions are very very different still

[white quarry]

They would mention, something of that caliber

[sweet edge]

crossplay wouldn't be a feature they sit quiet about.

[gleaming nova]

The mod on PC does allow up to 4 so it's probably still exist somewhere the in the game's code but I'm guessing the devs tested 4 player and realized it was too much and decided to limit it to 2

[heady frigate]

Xbox play anywhere thing might be

[frail merlin]

I wouldn’t say impossible, just a question if gearbox actually wanna dedicate effort towards cross play

[white quarry]

Ror2 on mobile will be real

[crisp kestrel]

WERE EATING BOYS

[hallow oracle]

They would get a whole 80 gbp from me so i can get it on PlayStation so its worth trust

[wispy crypt]

With how they are treating console Im actually starting to somewhat cope that it while heavily unlikely potentially may come in the future

[white quarry]

I only really benefit from the new achievements

[mighty citrus]

Nah we got hostile world- oh yeah nvm.

[crisp kestrel]

Is the dlc up on Xbox for pre order yet

[mighty citrus]

Not that I saw

[white quarry]

No

[gleaming nova]

There's been a few discontinued split screen mods on PC but the the one that currently works is XSplitScreen

[hallow oracle]

I dont think it will have one

[noble furnace]

DUDE, I AM GOING TO BE ON VACATION WHEN THE DLC RELEASE SAME HISTORY AS THE ANNIVERSARY UPDATE, IT RELEASED WHEN I WAS ON VACATION, GOD DAMMIT.🤣

[hallow oracle]

For me its just been up when the day starts no pre order

[white quarry]

Yep very likely no pre order

[mighty citrus]

NOOOOOOO

[white quarry]

For how long

[noble furnace]

I am going to go back to my house on the 29th.

[white quarry]

Damn.

[noble furnace]

Missing 2 days, it's what it is.

[frail merlin]

It’s not so bad just a late start

[wispy crypt]

I mean there is not all that much to be done in 2 days

[mighty citrus]

Wait. If I have the next gen update and my friend is on an old gen xbox can we still play together?

[sweet edge]

yes

[wispy crypt]

Im sure you could still catch us diving into the new lore in theorycraftinf by then

[noble furnace]

Yep, let's see if history repeats like the anniversary update, the update release and I was hype and then all the nuke of anniversary bugupdate happen and makes me cry a little.

[mighty citrus]

So is the local coop thing console only?

[heady frigate]

Same lol it's gonna be rough

[white quarry]

Pros:
-new bug fixes
-4K is nice but not huge
-split screen is pretty huge
-achievements are great

Cons:
-almost certainly going to have exclusive gamebreaking bugs at launch
-no 120FPS
-Switch doesn’t benefit from the next gen upgrade

[wispy crypt]

Only next gen xbox and ps5

[mighty citrus]

Fair

[torn fossil]

wait split screen gameplay??

[wispy crypt]

Tbh its kind of fair that switch doesnt get these extras because it has rorr

[white quarry]

Mhmm

[mighty citrus]

Trueeee

[torn fossil]

10 fps stage 6 here i come

[gleaming nova]

The next gen upgrades **are **named next gen upgrades for reason. I would imagine whenever the announced Switch Successor which we will hear from soon there's a chance we could get all the same/similar upgrades and features the PS5 and Xbox is currently getting.

[mighty citrus]

This

[wispy crypt]

Maybe but that depends on how much that little thing is gonna be able to handle

Iirc leaks said the thing would have about the processing power of a ps4

[white quarry]

Switch not benefitting was entirely expected it would just suck as a switch player not getting any of that

[mighty citrus]

Only so much you can do with a console like that unfortunately

[wispy crypt]

I mean personally im just glad it can run ror2 at all

[quartz bay]

not on the same console, but technically you can play locally on switch, you just need multiple switches/copies of ror2

there is a option for local multiplayer iirc

[white quarry]

I mean they would still hopefully get optimisations, bug fixes, and achievements (idk if switch has achievements)

[wispy crypt]

Indeed

[white quarry]

I wonder if the achievements will be retroactive

Will I unlock over 100 achievements when I boot up the rain?

[wispy crypt]

Switch doesnt have built in achievements so games would have to implement those into the game itself

[gleaming nova]

Old gen PS4 and XBOne isn't really receiving the extras that the PS5 and Xbox are getting its just hardware limitations. the switch is still getting the DLC (PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG) but like I said B4 there's always a chance for some kind next gen upgrade for Nintendo's Switch Successor.

[white quarry]

They are still getting the dlc

[wispy crypt]

Eberything is getting the sots at the same time

[quartz bay]

i hope so, i dont wanna do some of those achievements again lol

[white quarry]

Don’t want to be pessimistic but the launch times for switch could be fucked

Seeing as how sotv went

[wispy crypt]

Ye im already mentally preparing to have to wait like 2 weeks longer

[finite fjord]

wait so switch aint getting the splitscreen?

sad
