[dapper violet]

[vivid rune]

not quite 😭

[limpid kayak]

I'm currently at BRT.

[vivid rune]

i alway get confused with timezones but im lile gmt or smth idfk

[limpid kayak]

American geography skills will always amaze me.

[limpid kayak]

Eh, fair.

[dapper violet]

you a brit

[vivid rune]

im british and im horrendous at it

[limpid kayak]

Why?

[dapper violet]

he doesnt eat jellied eel

and proper english dining

[vivid rune]

also im british but the food fucking sucks

other than beans

[dapper violet]

you bear the mark

you are cursed

[dapper violet]

british beans suck

[limpid kayak]

My people daily consume beans too, tastes nice.

[vivid rune]

ok so all my knowledge of the world map comes from plague inc.

all i know is that saudi arabia and india are prime outbreak starting places

[limpid kayak]

I have completed high school and, thank God, I know basic geography.

[vivid rune]

i mean depends what you mean by basic geography

[limpid kayak]

Stuff like the fact that Africa is not a county, the location of the Balkans, the capitals of each country, etc.

[vivid rune]

kinda hard to tell when my partner is in uni for geography so i seem very inept

[vivid rune]

hey i know that

MAYBE not exact of the balkans

[limpid kayak]

Good

Smart creature.

[vivid rune]

australia isnt a continent either which i find funny

[limpid kayak]

Pffft, like, duh.

[vivid rune]

learnt that in like year 8

in highschool

[limpid kayak]

I bet there are a lot of people who don't know what Oceania is.

[vivid rune]

theres defo alot

[limpid kayak]

Continent knowledge depends a lot in which country you learn it.

[vivid rune]

thats fair

[limpid kayak]

Like, based on what was taught to you, how many continents there are?

[vivid rune]

british education teaches it all since we used to forcefully take over all of them anyways

[vivid rune]

7

[limpid kayak]

Yippie, colonization!!

[vivid rune]

i dont THINK the arctic is considered a continent right?

[limpid kayak]

Hmm, depends.

Based on what I learned, there is North America, Central America, South America, Africa, Europe, Oceania and Asia.

[vivid rune]

i never learned to see central america as a continent

[limpid kayak]

I assume most countries don't imply the idea of Central America being a continent.

Pre-edit.

[vivid rune]

instead of central america we choose antarctica

[limpid kayak]

Look.

Normally, you are going to divide people and their countries in the world based on their culture, economy and territorial borders.

Technically, the poles don't produce much of these 3 elements.

They are there, but not as strongly.

[vivid rune]

yeah thats very fair

idrk, im not very involved in geography so i just repeat what i was taught

[limpid kayak]

So... school here just integrates each part of the poles with the countries that most influenced each region.

[limpid kayak]

I see.

[vivid rune]

yeah the culture aspect should be more important here tbh

[limpid kayak]

That's why Central America is considered a continent of its own here.

[vivid rune]

but landmass is also a big reason for calling something a continent imo

im prob more towards it being landmass based

[limpid kayak]

There are similarities in some of its parts with North America and also with South America in others, but, taking that more specific look, those people they break the patterns a bit.

[limpid kayak]

Education here, specially considering the historical past of colonization, political manipulation, rape, and forced miscegenation our people were subjected to, peoples whose territories have been seized, such as those in Palestine, Ukraine, and Mexico, receive a more cautious and valued approach.

[vivid rune]

oh yeah, alot of the reason why i prefer the landmass classification is cause of education

im just used to it

[limpid kayak]

That aspect of territorial expansion takes a back seat while cultural resistance takes precedence here, I would say.

[vivid rune]

fair point

[limpid kayak]

But yeah, viewpoints are products of specific systems.

[vivid rune]

culture differences disginguish populations more than simple territory and landmass

[limpid kayak]

If I was taught about the world there, I would probably also think about this topic with your eyes.

[vivid rune]

but ofc i still sway to landmass also cause it feel simpler and more logical to me

[vivid rune]

yeah most likely

[limpid kayak]

It helps.

In my geography book, there was an entire section on the idea of Eurasia.

[vivid rune]

i also dont REALLY like saying "us" when talking abt british colonization since like, bruh i didnt do it

[vivid rune]

absolutely nothing abt it here...

[limpid kayak]

I know, I know.
You have no fault of what people born before you in that specific spot of the world thought should be done.

[vivid rune]

like obviously its very good to be reminded of the horrors committed by the british empire its just id rather it not be told like I had done it

[vivid rune]

generational guilt is pretty shit yeah, but i just ignore it tbh mostly

[limpid kayak]

Yeah, yeah.
Like calling any German you find a MMW (Mustach Man Worshipper) just because you opened a history book a night before.

[vivid rune]

yeah SLIGHTLY insane

[limpid kayak]

I also wouldn't be happy for being treated for what a stereotype says or what people did here at some point.
Nobody would.

Besides Americans, ig.

[vivid rune]

like, i hate having ppl say im part of what the past of britain is or whatever but i aint ever gonna be caught saying im "proud to be british"

[limpid kayak]

It's a quite niche topic, tbh.

[vivid rune]

yeah exactly

[limpid kayak]

You can still say that can choose what parts of "Being British" you really want to carry.

I think everyone should do that at some point.

[vivid rune]

oh yeah ofc, just not the sweeping statement

like i dont think any citizen of any country can really say that and there NOT be stuff they shouldnt be proud of but im defo getting nitpicky atp

[limpid kayak]

On point!

Bad elements in the past should be remembered as warnings.
Good elements in the present should be treated with care and preserved for the future.

[vivid rune]

i feel as if i keep talking abt this i may get a 2nd problematic

[vivid rune]

yeah exactly!

[limpid kayak]

What would be it?

[vivid rune]

ive already been muted alot before for offtopic and other stuff

[limpid kayak]

Aaahh, got it.

[vivid rune]

and i have the role 😭

[limpid kayak]

Sooooo...
Risk of Rain, am I right?

Water Drop.

Precipitation.

[vivid rune]

i tried talking abt bloons tower defense by weaving in ror2 references

it did not work.

[limpid kayak]

Lmao.

I compared the game with Bloons at some point to sell it to a friend.

[vivid rune]

the mods here are rlly advanced trust

[limpid kayak]

In the aspect of incomprehensible visual pollution satisfaction.

[vivid rune]

yeahhh i think my brain has been fried from that stuff

[limpid kayak]

It's almost 5 AM for me and I should nap.

It was cool talking with ya, buddy.
Until later, ig.

[vivid rune]

its nearly 8am for me and i havent napped

[vivid rune]

cya!

[limpid kayak]

Dayum.
We vampires.

[slender thunder]

I love being British

Beans on toast

Uhhh the king

Being a very loud and annoying tourist

[topaz verge]

Toast sandwich

[scenic spruce]

anyone wanna play im on ps and have all dlcs

[limpid kayak]

Funny accent too.

The cultural icons of music and filmography.

[limpid kayak]

Does anyone know what character this is? I printed that mugshot from a video.

[inland field]

It's a modded character.

To my knowledge

[limpid kayak]

Like, ye.

[inland field]

Ask modding

[limpid kayak]

Hm, ok.

[dapper violet]

i understand what people mean by saying modding is the backbone of ror2

i feel like having randomly generated maps would help the longevity of the game in vanilla form

[quartz bay]

i believe there is a mod for that already

yea lol

[fossil lotus]

I just had my friend try the games for the first time and it may be the dumbest time have had on ror2

[dapper violet]

if you would notice we are in the console chat

[quartz bay]

well you did bring up modding, i just curious if a mod like that existed :p

[dapper violet]

we cant mod at all on console

GEARBOX

ADD A MODDING ABILITY LIKE FALLOUT 4

AND MY LIFE, IS YOURS

[split helm]

PLEASE OMG THATS SUCJ A GOOD IDEA

[limpid kayak]

What is Fallout 4's modding deal again?

[dapper violet]

theres like a little section that says mods and anyone who creates anything can post it there for someone to download

also i just got the stage of my life

2 tc 280s, 5 reds out of my legendary chest and a bombardment drone

🥹

[lavish lintel]

any news on alloyed collective switch 2 release

[hot hill]

There's no indication of a switch 2 specific release

Only the switch release being Q1

[dapper violet]

prolly before the next update so maybe like 6 months

[lavish lintel]

im saying switch in general

[hot heron]

When dlc for switch come

[sweet edge]

Q1

[vague cipher]

anyone wanna play console wit meee?

(im new here)

hrllo?

[hot hill]

Try the lfg channels

[agile cove]

Why my game still be crashing bro

[dapper violet]

cause yo internet buns

[marble sail]

Or you played railgunner

[hollow cairn]

Can mods be in the official game like fallout or Skyrim’s ones but without any paywalls?

[silk steppe]

I had a problem while playing with a friend, and at one point he started getting high ping or packet loss, which couldn't be fixed, and it only happened when ppl was connecting because he was also creating a lobby and i have ping also, so can help anyone

[winged stirrup]

Does this mean that if I’m playing on ps4 edition on ps5 I won’t get any updates

Cause the ps4 version on ps5 runs better then the ps5 version

[noble fulcrum]

So wait, no switch 2 risk of rain then???

[gleaming nova]

If the Nintendo Switch Version isn’t going to be receiving updates anymore. Can we see Nintendo Switch 2 port at some point?

[nova meadow]

WHAT ABOUT SWITCH 2

[valid steppe]

switch 2??

[modern kite]

I'm also wondering about Switch 2.

[wispy crypt]

Me too

[untold valley]

Will this be the final push I need to drop $450 on a switch 2 finally🫩

[meager hill]

At least give ps4 kbm support back!

[brave swallow]

The fact that it specifically says "Nintendo Switch (Gen 8)" is what's bugging me but

[valid steppe]

this is very poor communication

[wispy crypt]

Pretending like the switch 2 doesnt exist is crazy

[brave swallow]

I guess it could/should say that theyre planning on doing something for switch 2

[modern kite]

It really isn't they haven't announced a Switch 2 version.

[wispy crypt]

Still like

Its not the same as a regular switch so will it get further content or not?

[valid steppe]

this would be the time to do it

[wispy crypt]

Like its not a gen 8 console

[brave swallow]

Yeah I think if they'd specify that its Gen 8 Switch in particular, it'd be a good time to say whether or not if they plan on doing anything else for Switch 2 or not

[untold valley]

Are the specs of a Switch2 comparable to a ps5 or Xbox series X/S?

[modern kite]

More of a PS4 Pro I believe?

[frank python]

This is such a bummer knowing switch version gets killed like this, hopefully not online support between switch players

[brave swallow]

doubtful

[wispy crypt]

Suncler we need answers please 🥺

[quartz oyster]

why not continue the game on switch 2? no reason not to, the switch 2 is plenty powerful

[stiff kelp]

Cross play eventually? 🤠

[quartz oyster]

i made more progress on my switch version, i don't wanna lose all that progress...

[quartz bay]

rip xbox ps4 and switch

[modern kite]

They might announce a Switch 2 upgrade.

[wispy crypt]

Yeah its quite unfortunate

[quartz bay]

hopefully a switch 2 version releases eventually

[wispy crypt]

I would do anything

Hell I would even shove over 10 or 20 bucks for that

[mint veldt]

I feel you, I just fully 100% my game the other day

[north cape]

Crossplay and Quickmatch on PC literally when?

[vapid night]

Ripping my hyperfixation from my cold dead hands :,(

I cant afford a pc or a ps5

[valid steppe]

this is almost as bad as the time gearbox cancelled the sega dreamcast halflife port

😔

[vivid star]

They better

[brave swallow]

Im a spot where I do have a Switch 2 and a ps5, but I'd really prefer not to have to buy and get everything again on ps5

[obsidian pasture]

Something of value was lost

[vivid star]

@brave swallow same here and I'm huge fan of the gyro controls on switch

[obsidian pasture]

Do you not have the same account for ps4 and ps5??

[brave swallow]

?

[obsidian pasture]

Games you purchase arent locked to the console I dont think

If you have an account for ps4/5

Like I bought minecraft on my ps4 and was able to download it on my ps5 once i got it

And I mean unless you have two separate accounts then idk

[brave swallow]

Oh I get it now, but I never had a ps4, nor do I have ror2 on that console at all. I only have it on my Switch 2

[obsidian pasture]

Ah I see

[brave swallow]

Yeah, I'd just have to buy it all again and get the grind going again

[modern kite]

It should be known that PS4 Backwards compatibility is not perfect.

[brave swallow]

That doesnt really apply to me but its a good thing to know in general for anyone else

[latent cave]

I saw no mention of the Switch 2 in the announcement. Does that mean that there's no switch 2 version planned for RoR2???

[wispy crypt]

We dont know

[vivid star]

As far as we know for rn

[brave swallow]

They specifically say Gen 8 Switch in the announcement, so it's possible, just no word on it

[vivid star]

I'd actually play it more often on PS5 if they added the gyro controls. Idk why that is switch exclusive

[latent cave]

My switch 2 is just the only place I can consistently play the game. Not getting any more content updates will be really sad

Plus I'd love to play the game with mouse mode

[vivid star]

Same. I love playing it in handheld instead of on the TV

[brave swallow]

Oh yeah you could do that huh

[vivid star]

A Risk of Rain 2 Switch 2 Edition is just a no brainer. Gonna be on Hopoo-ium for a long time until official confirmation 🪶

[latent cave]

It already runs so well just with backwards compatibility. It pretty much just needs a higher resolution and mouse mode

[wispy crypt]

TRUE

[fathom shore]

Personally my solution to console risk of rain was buying everything again on discount on pc but like I’m on ps5 so I’m not being oppressed with the update at all

(Terrible idea btw)

[latent cave]

I do have the game on steam, but I don't have a PC at home. I used to play on my mac, but since SotS came out there's a bug that makes the health bars invisible which is a bit of a problem

So I can only play the PC version in the gaming lounge at school

[valid steppe]

https://thunderstore.io/c/riskofrain2/p/LevTeam/MacosHealthbarsFix/

[fathom shore]

They let you download STEAM?

[latent cave]

Yeah I know about that, but I can't get r2modman to work in CrossOver

[valid steppe]

you can manual install

[fathom shore]

Risk of rain on the school computers goes insane

[latent cave]

It's a dedicated gaming room so they've just got all the gaming stores installed already

[valid steppe]

mod doesnt get frequent updates, so it shouldnt be too much of a chore

[fathom shore]

Ohh awesome sauceness

[latent cave]

We've got an esports program

[fathom shore]

Is it a college

Makes sense.

[latent cave]

couldn't figure that out either lol

All the manual install guides I could find are super out of date

[brave swallow]

That would really be my only option, but I can wait and see if a switch 2 version happens (im on switch anyway, you get used to waiting )

[valid steppe]

should be as simple as installing BepInEx and installing the mod in the plugins folder

[latent cave]

Well ig I'll have to try again at some point

I've got so many games on the go rn though and no time to play them 😅

[boreal hemlock]

Performance upgrade

[brave swallow]

Oh thats nice

[latent cave]

Nice I could already get a few loops in on Switch 2 😅

[modern kite]

That's cool but we still need to know if there will be a Switch 2 edition.

Edit: Might be too soon to even matter though.

[brave swallow]

I could never get the credits to play without the game crashing on switch 1 after a certain point Crazy how a whole console upgrade changed that

[latent cave]

Yeah totally

I made a post on reddit showing how far I got into a simulacrum run as a stress test back when the switch 2 first came out

I could have kept going too, but I got obliterated by a scavenger a few stages after that 😅

[modern kite]

I haven't played in awhile but I probably can get far as the guy with the katana or the Bandit.

And you can tell I haven't played in a while because I forgot a survivors name.

[latent cave]

Mercenary

[modern kite]

There might be one other survivor but I don't remember them either.

Engineer is tricky though but possible.

Its engineer right?

The Captain? I don't know about The Captain.

Isn't The Captains abilities strong but limited in use?

[brave swallow]

Yeah

[shy ruin]

Alloyed Collective tomorrow!

[frail merlin]

strange how gearbox doesn't mention switch 2 at all.

[brave swallow]

Now that I think about it, wasnt BL4 delayed indefinitely on it

[modern kite]

BL4?

[brave swallow]

Borderlands

[modern kite]

Ah

[boreal hemlock]

It was one of the first games announced to have a Switch 2 version iirc. Then just never happened

Take 2 (Gearbox parent company) is doing their quarter report soon. We may get to know some detain then (probably not)

[wispy crypt]

Oh huh funny

[boreal hemlock]

Gearbox has a Switch 2 dev kit since a long while. One of the first companies to have one probably

[turbid thunder]

The thought of bl4 running on a switch of any kind is just absurd

[boreal hemlock]

https://youtu.be/VrTVeYm4iIM?t=2693

[rigid parcel]

Is there a save data transfer option from ps4 to ps5?

[hot hill]

Yes. Once you start the ps5 version, it will import ps4 save data if you have it

[elder trench]

Wait, does that mean that after any update, you can no longer play cross-gen with friends?

[boreal hemlock]

After the next content that arrives to gen 9 but not gen 8. So for now it is good

[elder trench]

The best I can hope for is that they meant just content like dlc
So cross gen might still be possible but old gen won't be able to get new stuff

[brave swallow]

no, once that update happens, no more cross play between gens

[elder trench]

Genuinely sad

[boreal hemlock]

Them discontinuing old gen wasbound to happen. But the corssplay thing is sad. I wish there was a way for gen 9 players to choose between current build and gen 8 compatible build like you can do on Steam

Is it no an option to run the ps4 version of games onps5?

[frail phoenix]

Potential hope for switch 2
The date for the switch dlc is feb 5th
And that date is speculated to have a direct so perhaps we could get switch 2 edition
They would probably also mention the dlc being available

[fallen basalt]

I hope there's a switch 2 edition/upgrade for the switch players, would feel bad if the switch/switch 2 is completely cut off

[frail phoenix]

As a switch player I can only agree

[modern kite]

Actually you can.

Edit: When downloading or playing a game you can choose which version you want.

Just realize it's a separate download from the PS5 version.

[weary mauve]

So whats up with no mention of switch 2 getting updates is it not gonna get them or is there just no dev kits because nintendo is still being stingy with them?

[fresh iron]

ripping hair out and screaming and foaming at the mouth and biting and experiencing hydrophobia and listening to a sad boy song to this news

[fringe sage]

Am I overreacting or does this basically kill multiplayer?…

[hot hill]

It does kill crossgen multiplayer

[fringe sage]

Yeah and to my knowledge that’s a decently large number of an already rather small console community. Or at least on PlayStation it is.

[hot hill]

Yup

[fresh iron]

ok im back i got my rabies shots

i'm still pissed though

[arctic apex]

u think they will give a patch two switch 2🤞

[quartz bay]

hopefully but i wouldn't count on it anytime soon

[modern kite]

It's really not an immediate issue to warrant needing a Switch 2 edition.

[severe oar]

They are done updating last gen and if there isn't a Switch 2 version no more updates

[modern kite]

I don't know if bug fixes apply too that though.

If anything it could mean any major update.

So we need a Switch 2 edition before the next major update.

[strong cosmos]

Noooooo

I hope on Switch 2

I doubt it mostly due to the Xbox and Playstation issues last time, they might have found a way to stop it tbh, but still, it kinda sucks

[severe oar]

I really want to keep getting updates on my Switch 2. I won't be buying it all again to play on my XSX. I got it on my Switch because I enjoy playing it there...I have also gotten at least 4 friends to also get it on the Switch so if we can't get a Switch 2 version I doubt they would buy it elsewhere either

[strong cosmos]

I'm def getting the game on pc when I can, but atm... it's bad

[limpid kayak]

Aw, I have a friend who is stuck on Xbox One.
The multiplayer journeys will have to keep going without him 🤧

AT LEAST if there weren't issues with local coop currently.

[limpid kayak]

I figured out recently my PC can run it, sooo... I'll save some money for when it goes under a discount.

[strong cosmos]

nice

[sour quiver]

We must pray for a switch 2 version,

[rugged cedar]

its so over

[boreal hemlock]

The thing is. If there is a switch 2 version, crossplay S1-S2 would cease

[quartz bay]

actually wont you still be able to do cross platform multiplayer if, for example, the person on ps5 just played the ps4 version of the game

[frail merlin]

That makes sense

[boreal hemlock]

i asked about that yesterday, but is it something that happens by default or does it need to be enabled?

[worthy plinth]

My question is why doesn't gearbox just hire more developers in order to give older gen consoles the updates

They have the money and they have the financial incentive, seeing as there's still enough people with ps4s and such who buy the dlcs

[hot hill]

Because screw you
/hj

[boreal hemlock]

The implication on the statement (and what has been on the conversation for a while now) is that old gen was starting to be a problem power wise

[worthy plinth]

My leading theory is that all the shareholders who have stocks in sony and microsoft and such want people to buy the new consoles

But like

Problem with that idea is the gabecube is gonna release soon, console players are just gonna flock over there instead because it's common knowledge pc gaming is simply just better

The only reason consoles have a market is because people want a low maintenance device that can be used for gaming

The gabecube is exactly that

[boreal hemlock]

Ehhhh, if you read the Take 2 quaterly reports, you will get the idea that shareholders dont even know what the fuck Risk of Rain is. Risk of Rain 2 wasnt going to be the reason someone spends 500+ currency on a console anyways. Doesnt make sense

This game is not that important in the big scheme

[worthy plinth]

Rich assholes ruin everything

[boreal hemlock]

PS4 is 13 years old. I totally believe it has to put some limitations on what they can develop going forward

[boreal hemlock]

I am 100% with you there

[worthy plinth]

Why can't we go back to old capitalism where planned obsolescence wasn't the most effective tactic and consumer trust was actually prioritized to an extent

[hot hill]

Money

Late stage capitalism, babeee

[boreal hemlock]

Because capitslism will always evolve to this by design. That all capitalism where factory owners were proud of how much emplyoment they generated and proud on the quality of their products was but a mirage. It was always going to end here.

18 century capitalists supporters and theorizers warned that this would happen inevitably (and of course its critics said it as well)

[worthy plinth]

It's not even that, money was still the motivating factor and the rich were still extremely greedy and aggressive businessmen

But pre reagan, the rich were actually taxed a really considerable portion (and their tax writeoff was paying their employees, fueling the economy) and the laws before then ensured that the most effective way of making money was offering a good product

[boreal hemlock]

having said this, I think this is the correct decision if they want to keep updating the game. The problem is the discontinuation of crossgen crossplay

[hot hill]

I am aware but this isn't the channel for this discussion

[worthy plinth]

That's fair, I just think it's lame to criticize capitalism when it was clearly working and not going downhill at the rate it is up until his presidency

Actually, was it even true capitalism, there was quite a number of regulations, wouldn't that make it more akin to socialism

Idfk

[hot hill]

This really isn't the channel

[worthy plinth]

Ill end it here by saying greedy ceos suck and bison steaks the greatest item in the game

[hot hill]

Ukuleles

[worthy plinth]

Nah clearly we need antler shield back

Was such an amazing top tier item

Better than ukuleles

Dude you could proc stun with it because it had a .2 proc coeff

[vivid rune]

antler shield mourning 😭

[strange beacon]

Did they specifically state the reasons for stopping last gen updates? Gonna suck not being able to play with my friends anymore

[sweet edge]

cuz it's old tech

[covert berry]

From the 2K Support Article:

"This decision, while painful, empowers our devs to continue making content without compromises - so it’s the path we decided to take."
Not very specific, but that's the only reason they gave.

[strange beacon]

Yea, I saw the article, It really didn't explain much. It sucks alot

[covert berry]

It's just corpo-speak. And then they ask for feedback on the "future console plans" as if people complaining here will make them decide to keep doing updates. They already knew that people wouldn't like their decision, they said as much in the article. Why would seeing that in the Discord make any difference?

[hot hill]

Because I still want my voice heard, for the record

[modern kite]

The only future plan I am interested in hearing is if there is a Switch 2 edition planned.

[median lava]

The answer is ultimately “the switch is 8 years old”

The switch is old enough to drink

[hot hill]

What

[whole nexus]

That clearly says the Wii isn't thirsty, not the Nintendo switch though

[arctic apex]

i never thought about that. dosent everything like orange juice

[hollow creek]

ik its prob just me but has anyone else had trouble with sensitivity ?? It feels like I can barely do anything sometimes without wating 500 years

[reef venture]

Only just saw the “we are killing ps4” post
What the hell man
Welp, their loss, cuz I’m not buying a new console just to get dlc from one greedy company. This is piss poor.

[proper grail]

frog sandwich

[limpid kayak]

Well, at least you can play with other people in the PS4.

With a ton of content already.

The biggest issue about support being cut is shortage in multiplayer.

[limpid kayak]

I think the negative reaction of the community wouldn't be as intense if there were legacy versions for those consoles to play together.

I'll suggest that anytime, tbh.

Like, an option you can activate on the menu that runs the current compatilble version of the game.

[hot hill]

If they're not willing to just support the legacy consoles, they're not willing to do thay

[frail merlin]

I can’t speak for ps or Xbox but the switch was clearly reaching its limit from my experience. It’s progressively become more laggy with each update and has been struggling even with the optimization update. The switch 2 works great tho, I don’t understand gearbox not mentioning it at all.

[limpid kayak]

I can tell ya Xbox One suffers a lot to run AC.

Mainly with all the billion item proc activations and challenges of the mountain.

Btw, damn, AC content on monsoon is wild.

The fact you need to beat 4 bosses on a row to get the funny low-poly skins...

[final ice]

The switch even having AC is impressive alone and I fully support killing off support for that platform, but not supporting switch 2 properly is absurd

PS4 and Xbox One are also so many years old so I fully understand killing support for that too

Not having to account for really low grade hardware can help make much more ambitious stuff so I get that much

[dreamy crow]

Ac?
Assassin's creed? Animal crossing? Accent core+r?

[reef venture]

Yeah except all my friends have ps5s lmao

[reef venture]

This might just be a me thing, but aside from the occasional crash, my PS4 runs ror2 fine, very few issues.

[supple notch]

I still can't unlock Artificer on Xbox fawkkkk

[final ice]

Alloyed collective...?

[molten cedar]

Hi, I have a question, I’m on PS5 and my friend is on Xbox Series X. Can we play risk rain 2, together on cross platforms or no?

[solid iron]

Risk of Rain 2 doesn't support crossplay at all.

[molten cedar]

Ok thank you💯

[severe oar]

Any news on a Switch 2 version or support?

[dreamy crow]

Ohhhhhhhhhh right

My bad... I kinda forgot about that

[tiny garden]

They also forgot armored core

[regal moon]

My ps4 ass just seen the announcement

[proud nymph]

I mean, the consoles are really old

[runic chasm]

[short iris]

On one hand tho... Isn't the switch 2 only as powerful as a PS4?

[final ice]

its slightly more powerful

but close to that range, yeah

to that end I can see why they wouldn't want to support it either

but considering its not a platform that is 8+ years old... probably wouldn't hurt to try

[short iris]

Tbh, PS4 runs the game decently well but its probably just future proofing it I guess? If the switch lasted for that long depending on... How long they wanna support RoR2...... A switch 2 going for that long too could be detrimental?

[leaden nimbus]

Anyone on console possibly know how to mod the ps4 version?

My ps4 runs the game just fine

This and ow2 have no problems tbh

[quartz bay]

you cant mod ror2 on ps4

[wispy crypt]

Its not even one year old, not supporting it and essentially giving switch users no way of continuing their ror2 saves for future updates seems... very questionable imo

[boreal hemlock]

at least they announced it before the AC release on Switch. Saying it after could be considered dishonest

[wispy crypt]

Thing is they didnt even really say anything about switch 2

So unless I missed something suncles or another gearbox associate said theres still no confirmation on whats happening to that console and ror2

[boreal hemlock]

I dont think there was any more information at all

In 4 days we will know

[wispy crypt]

Hopefully

Im not a fan of the lack of communication

[severe oar]

Best case is they just forgot somehow (not a likely scenario)

Mid case is they are feeling out support and if there is enough they will make it

Worst is they are not going to work on a Switch 2 version/support and just didn't want to come out and say it which might have hurt DLC sales o the Switch if announced at the same time

It is also possible they decided to hold it back for a separate announcement for some reason but that seems like a huge blunder

[regal moon]

Yeah and it’s completely understandable, time to buy it on my laptop

[proud nymph]

I do feel bad for people who is still on those consoles though

[leaden nimbus]

[supple notch]

I love how I got almost all the base game characters on my Xbox save file except for Artificer bc of that bug

[maiden vessel]

The chef unlock for me for searing bison is broken is there a fix? I did it right and counted

[dapper violet]

your life is over bro youre deepfried youre never getting the best chef perk your chef is and will never be optimal

i love fearmongering guys

also fr i dont think you can fix it on console

[hot hill]

I'm just realizing now that unless Gearbox somehow adds a way to fix the logbook/run reports bug from eventually making the game unplayable, because it gets to large the game just refuses to start, might not work after the the ps4/ps5 version desync happens

If we are unable to import the ps4 version or have some way to clear run reports that doesn't require using the ps5s save data deletion system, since you can't delete individual parts of a games saves, the game will eventually become unplayable, forcing you to create a fresh save

@ruby timber

I hope the thumbs up means they're working on something. You honestly haven't let me down yet with an update. Please don't betray my tiny rat trust

[ruby timber]

it was more of a 'i will report it' but idk if we'll be able to get a fix out

[hot hill]

I think a way to clear the runtime reports from in game would probably solve the issue

And I doubt people would complain about the ability to clear that out when they want from ingame instead of from their save folder

[abstract moat]

Does switch 2 have the joycon mouse support?

[sweet edge]

nope

it's just the switch 1 version backwards compatible on the switch 2

[abstract moat]

Ty ):

[boreal hemlock]

Gearbox just cancelled the Switch 2 version for Borderlands 4

[valid steppe]

uh oh :c

[sharp mulch]

that game is buns anyway

[boreal hemlock]

I think it was well received

But the point here is the implications in the mids of the ror2 latest news

[quartz bay]

risk of rain 2 nintendo switch 2 edition is... LOST MEDIA???

[wispy crypt]

Crazy cause that was one of the first switch 2 games announced

[boreal hemlock]

yep

[noble fulcrum]

Im losing my mind over this, i still have it on series x and steam deck but switch 2 was my absolute favorite place to play cuz of the motion controls, its so funn, i cant lose that 😿😿

[boreal hemlock]

I mean, it is not like they are closing the game. It is sad that some players wont be able to play DLC4, but those who have base game, DLC1,2 and 3 will be able to play all they want

The intergenerational crossplay loss truly is a pity

[quartz bay]

you can enable motion controls on steam deck

[noble fulcrum]

Yeah i get that but it feels a little pointless making progress on a version thats no longer going to get new stuff, a bit like playing an mmo after theyve announced there will be no more updates

[sweet edge]

this isnt an mmo at all though

[noble fulcrum]

Ive got it mapped to a button on my deck but the motion controls there just arent as good because its not actually integrated in the game, on switch 2 motion controls arent active while running but are active when walking and trying to aim

[sweet edge]

and it's not a game about making progress, not really

[noble fulcrum]

I never said it was an mmo

[sweet edge]

i get your point but maybe it's best to reframe how you think about the game

[noble fulcrum]

What? Like im still gonna play it but it will eventually get to a point where it wont be as worth it to play there because of missing features. Thinking about like the 3ds version of the binding of isaac, its still fun to play but its missing hundred of items and a decade of updates

[wispy crypt]

Personally its less about the progress I'll lose (although thats also kinda ass) and moreso about having to buy the whole game + dlcs again

Which like... no Im not gonna do that

[noble fulcrum]

I only own the game so many places because my friends all have different platforms, i really dont like having to reprogress through the game, but i mostly play on switch because of how easy it is to just pick up and play anytime on switch 2

Ill definitely end up playing less in general if switch 2 is off the table

[wispy crypt]

I think that goes for every switch user

[noble fulcrum]

Fair

[noble fulcrum]

A good chunk of it is about progress though, any game with this amount of unlocks will, whether intentionally or not, will be about progress

[quartz bay]

its pretty easy to edit your save file on pc/steamdeck since the save is just a text file if you dont wanna do the grind again

[frail merlin]

It does suck having to buy a game you already own and the 3 dlcs aren't helping.

[vernal peak]

Can somone give tips for beating monsoon solo with engineer

please don't say bungus

[quartz bay]

if you haven't already you should unlock his alt utility, its makes playing him much more easier and enjoyable

[hot hill]

Seconded

Makes dealing with flying enemies easier when you turrets are on cd

[frail merlin]

Don't stand still, unlike his turret you don't need to stand still and die.

[noble cypress]

How so?

[boreal hemlock]

You can copypaste the achievements or use a mod. Both are very easy to do

[vernal peak]

Thanks, I already use thermal harpoons

[noble fulcrum]

Nintendo partner direct same day as alloyed collective switch, possible ror2 switch 2 announcement 👀 (or I could be coping hard and the date is just a coincidence)

[frail merlin]

That would makes sense

[hot hill]

Honestly, the switch 2 has about the power of a ps4 or ps4 pro. If they do a switch 2 version but still leave the ps4 and xbone in the dust, that's gonna be upsetting

Not that I don't want their to be a switch 2 version, it just feels like a gut punch to the systems of similar power

And also not to rag on the switch 2 by comparing it because it's impressive that they managed to get that power into that portable of a system

[primal jay]

Hello, i have a question regarding the DLC's on PS5

[shy ruin]

I think it's more they don't wanna manage 7 systems (two gens of consoles + pc)

[primal jay]

Are there any plans to make a bundle with the 3 dlcs only?

[shy ruin]

Idk

[primal jay]

😢

[shy ruin]

Also the fact that the prev gen isn't as easy to support as the current gen, since it's not only less power but also less people on the respective consoles that wanna buy the dlcs I'd bet

[hot hill]

They already did the arduous process of bringing all consoles and pc to parity so that the sotv dlc and future stuff could finally come to consoles and they could make simultaneous releases. I don't buy that it's as much of a hassle as you think it is

We waited a year or two for the consoles to finally get sotv and that was what they said they did to get it. Now they're just gonna ditch all that?

[boreal hemlock]

They give a clear argument for the reason

[hot hill]

They did and I think it's bullshit

While explaining my reason

I mean no ill will against anyone, just don't like the decision

[boreal hemlock]

I think the people affected by this are in their right to feel upset

Although is not like the game closes for them

But I am not surprised about this development. This has been commented among players several times in the last year

[sweet edge]

no one who is slightly in tune with the games industry should be surprised by this. it's happened for 3 generations in a row now

[clear hinge]

Anyone know when alloyed collective will be available on the Nintendo eShop?

[boreal hemlock]

When in terms of day or in terms of hour?

[split helm]

How do only 35% of console players have engi😭😭

[clear hinge]

Hour

[boreal hemlock]

We dont know if it is going to be different this time because it is the first time there is an only on Switch launch. But all the other times the launches are usually whatever 19:00 UTC +1 is for you

[clear hinge]

K

[quartz bay]

idk how the trophy system works but it could be either people who've bought the game but haven't played it yet or people who played the game a few times then moved on to another game

[noble fulcrum]

My best guess is since its in ps+ (premium? The middle tier with a game pass) that its from a bunch of people adding the game to their library and not really playing it

Okay its the the extra plan, but a good chunk of ps players get it with their online subscription

[dreamy crow]

Correct. The ps plus extra games have a way smaller trophy completion rate because alot of people just let it sit there.

Ps plus essentials has monthly free games, those games have abysmal trophy completion rates

[short flower]

Is switch two getting updates since it’s gen 8?

[solid iron]

There is no confirmed switch 2 edition for Risk of Rain 2 as of now.

Risk of Rain 2 is playable on the switch 2 but it’s just running the switch 1 game.

Which is no longer receiving updates after The Alloyed Collective.

Also switch 2 isn’t gen 8. It’s gen 9. Some people would argue it’s technically gen 10 specifically because of when it released but thats just dumb.

[rocky kraken]

Hi does anyone know what time the dlc alloyed collective will be released?

[ruby timber]

i'll ping the server when its released, i assume right now it'll be like 9am or 10am PT but i'll get confirmation later on

[rocky kraken]

Thanks

[leaden nimbus]

It actually tracks it from the moment an account first opens a game and then tracks it

I worded that wrong but they have to have opened the game first

[quartz bay]

ahh, makes sense

[fathom oracle]

So I’ve heard from googling that apparently Alloyed Collective has released on the Switch?

Is this true or did I find a lot of unofficial accounts posting fake news on Instagram, X, and Facebook?

[shy ruin]

^

Not yet

[fathom oracle]

But it should be releasing today.

[shy ruin]

It hasn't released today yet

[fathom oracle]

Well I have been dreaming for this day anyway so I hope like heck it’s out by the time I get home today

[frail merlin]

I’m praying for a switch 2 version, I don’t wanna be stuck playing on pc.

[wispy crypt]

Im praying too

[noble fulcrum]

Im calling its gonna be announced at the direct in 5 minutes, if not you all can throw tomatoes at me

I just feel like we wouldve gotten a release time for today by now if it wasnt going to show up in the direct

[wispy crypt]

Idk I wouldnt expect it

I definitely hope for it but I dont wanna get disappointed if it doesnt happen which is also fairly likely

[sweet edge]

the direct being all third party stuff makes the odds a lot better imo

[noble fulcrum]

If this was a normal direct i wouldnt be this hopeful

1/3 of the way through, saving the best for last i see

[noble fulcrum]

Last announcemnt is from bethesda 😞

[sweet edge]

lmao

[noble fulcrum]

Ready the tomatoes

[sweet edge]

😔

[boreal hemlock]

Todd Howard being the one to kill all the hopes is so funny

[noble fulcrum]

Very fitting

Wow theyre just putting everything on switch

[wispy crypt]

Welp

Guess its ggs

[sweet edge]

womp womp

[ruby timber]

just an update on this, its 6pm PT so in 1hr 15 mins from this msg

[valid steppe]

oooo

nice

[frail merlin]

Almost out, just 10 more minutes.

[gloomy jasper]

The rare 90% crit start 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Man I wish I had another boot or glasses to say 100%

[willow hollow]

5 minutes

[frail merlin]

It’s out

I gotta test this later on switch 1, just to see how long the loading time is now.

[noble cypress]

save me gearbox

[frail merlin]

@wispy crypt You gotta see this
I laughed so hard, how did gearbox let this happen

[wispy crypt]

LMAOOOOO

But gimme a sec for the dlc to download

My internet was ass until now

[frail merlin]

Took quite a bit for me to download it as well

[white quarry]

Are we fucking serious😭

[frail merlin]

Console is cursed to have a buggy log book

[white quarry]

Like a nightmare

[weary sierra]

I saw the same thing lmfao

Thats the first thing I noticed

[final ice]

Lmao

[vivid star]

Not the frickin' logbook again 💀

That bug always irritates me so much

[viscid mantle]

I have been waiting for my logbook to be functional again since 2022🫩

It will have been four years of waiting as of like March or something

[frail merlin]

I don’t remember them dealing that much damage

[white quarry]

Ror2 was just added to gamepass???

I was sure gamepass wouldn’t touch it purely because of its rocky history

[golden cradle]

elite

[frail merlin]

I know but I’ve played AC on pc and I just don’t remember them dealing so much damage

[white quarry]

Nvm it was a free play days, got baited by the icon

[short iris]

Is this consistent? Every time? Dawg?

[frail merlin]

Yup

[short iris]

Dissapointing

[silent python]

Will the switch implode if you use admin override chirp on a stationary enemy

[coarse copper]

find out now

[silent python]

I'd recommend testing with oven mitts just to be safe

[wispy crypt]

Well from what I tried I didnt have that happen yet

[fading anvil]

gold

please keep sending more

[wispy crypt]

But in the chaos I couldnt exactly see what happened

[short iris]

Mending cores, beetle juice flying guys, alpha constructs, barnacles, those trigger it :)
If you can post a clip

[wispy crypt]

I... see

[hot hill]

The mending core floats, why on petrichor would it get the buggy stationary reaction

[short iris]

If it doesnt, horrible! No patch until dlc 4
If it does! The entire weight of finding what they did and didnt change is on you! 🤩

[short iris]

Stationary,,,

Can't move, stuck in place

[fading anvil]

it isn't about pc patch at this point

switch is fuuuuuuuucking cooked

if they really want to tank reputation out of that yeah sure go ahead

[short iris]

Eh idk logbook has had worse offenses

[hot hill]

I have been bamboozled for the last time

[fading anvil]

yeah logbook is one thing but that is even better

wonder if they broke the scaling of prospectors or it is something specific

I GET IT

[silent python]

Looks like a double hit from 2 separate elite ones no?

[fading anvil]

IT MULTI-HITS

[short iris]

That seems gilded elite coded but i wont do the maths so idk lol

[hot hill]

Honestly, as far as bugs go, at least this doesn't feel like it'll affect actual gameplay

[fading anvil]

i think it multi hits and doesn't care about iframes

[short iris]

It is a little egregious

[fading anvil]

can someone with a switch just headbutt a prospector

[short iris]

Like accidently swapping every environment logbook icon with distant roost is an absurd thing to happy

[fading anvil]

may be

but those are lv23 soo i don't know

[hot hill]

I take what I can get. It's not "run reports making the game unplayable" bug

[fading anvil]

we need someone to headbutt those

[hot hill]

And lemme tell you, I have a hell of a lot more in my run reports on switch than I do on ps

[frail merlin]

Drones playing dead on me

[hot hill]

Honestly, switch conduit canyon not looking that bad from that clip

[fading anvil]

this one is normal

happens on pc too at least

also they haven't fixxed the jittery hp bars on switch thats legendary

pc never got them fixed too it was just kiiiinda fixed because if you heal very quickly it is still broken

[quartz bay]

https://tenor.com/view/martin-scorsese-absolute-cinema-absolute-cinema-meme-martin-scorsese-meme-martin-scorsese-absolute-cinema-gif-7188464701423971028

[fading anvil]

we need a very tanky false son to just headbutt a prospector

not sure how would it break when compiled to switch but still worth trying

[fickle turtle]

Guys, have any switch players got the dlc yet?

I can’t find its store page on the eshop

[weary sierra]

Yeah I have it

Its there you might just have to refresh

[frail merlin]

Here are the results

[willow hollow]

alloyed collective is so fun

[quartz bay]

hm weird lagspikes

the game is certainly alot more playable compared to the last time i played the switch version ill give them that lol

i remember people on here saying the switch version crashed alot so hopefully thats been fixed too

[weary sierra]

Yeah it definitely was

Especially on switch 1 it jusy occasionally shit itself a lot, on switch 2 I havenr had that issue

[fickle turtle]

Phew

[quartz bay]

@short iris 👀

LOL xd

[shut sparrow]

Why he stealing my Wire💔

[fringe sage]

Can PS4 and PS5 still play together as of right now?

[boreal hemlock]

Yes, totally. The cut off wont happen until PS5 is updated but PS4 isnt

[clear hinge]

My screen will start strobing randomly

I’m on switch

[rigid sun]

Dlc runs fine on switch 2, but some noticable framerate drops like laggy spells

[shy ruin]

Definitely laggy on my switch but for the fact it's running 3 dlcs I'm impressed

[willow hollow]

is artifact of prestige supposed to change the games color?? Or is it a bug

[shy ruin]

?

I know the mountain shrine blue "crown" changes but wdym

[willow hollow]

theres a lot less blue and the sky is grey

i was trying to get a ss but it wasnt working

[shy ruin]

Weird..

On my switch I've noticed a saturation up in most areas

Particularly item rarety color outlines

[dapper coyote]

Is anyone else experiencing input lag from your controller while playing splitscreen?

Tried to play rail gunner but i kept missing every shot

[shy ruin]

Haven't played split screen in years but I love your pfp :)

[dapper coyote]

Thank you😊 it was a commission from my friend

[white quarry]

Oh my god titanic plains 1.0

That’s what it used to look like before the artifact update

[short iris]

It is exactly what you think lmao

[quartz bay]

its quite unfortunate

hopefully there another patch does release for switch

surely

[hot hill]

RoR2 when the ghost is spawns is a dunestrider or grandparent

[quartz bay]

true

i did play the switch version just a tiny bit and the random lagspikes are kinda annoying

[hardy kayak]

so like I forget, can you play this game on Switch 2 and it's just not optimized for it? Or it just cant be on that console at all rn

[shy ruin]

There's no switch 2 port, it just uses switch 1 vers

[vernal peak]

Is it possible to play with somone with someone on the switch two if you have the switch one?

[frail merlin]

Yes

[frail merlin]

I might do a long loop run to check how well ror2 run on the switch 2

[solemn lance]

Where do we go to let the developers know we want a switch 2 version

[vernal peak]

Idk

Feed back and ideas??

[eternal igloo]

ITS OUT ON SWITCH YAAAAAAAAY THANK YOU SM DEVS!!!!!!!

[weary sierra]

90% of copers quit before switch 2 upgrade

[wispy crypt]

I dont think a switch 2 upgrade is happening...

As much as I wish it would

[fathom oracle]

Has anyone ran into any crashes with the Switch release of AC?

I had a couple crashes that seem somewhat concerning but aren’t problematic.

One when I tried to exit to the main menu and one on the ending screen when I beat up Mythrix as Drifter. Cost me her logbook entry but hey I got her mastery skin???

[hot hill]

Were you playing on eclipse?

[wispy crypt]

Yup

I recommend closing and restarting the game every 2 runs

Each run if you wanna be extra careful

[frail merlin]

Im glad I didn’t die but im so confused.

[hardy kayak]

sticky bomb onto the drone in your off hand slot

[frail merlin]

That’s certainly was a coincident also would have been an easy rage quit if I died to a sticky bomb.

[hardy kayak]

or had 1 more ukulele and insta died from the shield item proccing lol

[fathom oracle]

No.

[fathom oracle]

That’s..really odd

[wispy crypt]

Its mos likely a memory leak

[fathom oracle]

Ah well. I suppose some bugs are inevitable.

Gearbox seems to be trying pretty hard with this stuff at least

[wispy crypt]

That memory leak existed for over a year

I dont think they were trying that hard on it

[quartz bay]

come to think about it did the devs ever mention at the very least still releasing bug patches on older console?

it would suck if switch players are perpetually suck having to restart the game every few runs to avoid crashes

[wispy crypt]

Nothing got mentioned but they did specify that it wouldnt be content updates

Regular patches should still be possible

[pliant olive]

Just got AC on Switch, couple questions.

1: Is Operator's secondary just a rotating list of all your drones? Like you can't use the same skill twice in a row?
2: No future content updates for Switch... So we WILL be left in the dust and inferior when more content is inevitably made?

[wispy crypt]

Yes and yes

Although your utility and special also cycle through the drone list letting you get back to a specific drone sooner

[pliant olive]

Neat, just wanted to make sure I understood how the skill worked.

[wispy crypt]

Its good to keep that in mind when planning

[pliant olive]

Huh, neat.

So Operator is all about hoarding a little drone army, and managing the list through skills.

[wispy crypt]

Yeah although operator himself also packs quite a punch

[pliant olive]

I'm assuming "Putting Together a Team" is repair five drones in stages, the two Operator starts with don't count?

Trying to learn how Operator works. And detract from the update thing salt...

[pliant olive]

Primary go pinball noises

[pliant olive]

I uhh... See why future content isn't going to exist, actually. I am getting lag spikes and freezes when more than three Solus Scorchers dare to exist at a time.

It's still just... Disappointing, you know? And I'm broke and a part-timer. I can't AFFORD to switch to something else just to make Risk of Rain 2 run better!

[quartz bay]

i can imagine xd

[pliant olive]

Okay, the lag isn't actually that bad. I may have been in a stressful spot and overreacted.

But dear god, the sheer enemy density because of the Solus units is WILD. I don't know how my Switch IS reasonably handling this.

Also, I thought logbooks were rare? I've been getting the Solus enemy ones within the first few encounters with them.

[sharp mulch]

Yeah ive experienced the same thing I get the location logbooks almost every time

[tiny nacelle]

Hey guys, so Im having an issue unless I’m dumb. So Ive been trying to unlock False Son and either 2 things happen in my runs

1. I don’t get the aurelinite and never get the gold portal (I do go through a green)
   Or
2. I don’t go into a green portal (one shrine and no other appear) but complete the shrine and never get to fight falso son.

Am I doing something wrong or is it just bad luck of the draw?

[white quarry]

Uhh unlucky?

Just go through a gold portal or get to gilded coast via lunar seer’s, get aurelionite seed, then a green portal will spawn in the gilded coast along with a gold portal. Taking the green portal just fast-tracks you to false son

It’s unnecessary to go through any green portal until you have the seed

[dapper coyote]

I found a bug

https://gamerdvr.com/gamer/ohio-chungus920/video/199947048

No embed is crazy

[clear hinge]

Did the crab achievement get fixed on switch???

[fathom oracle]

…Is this no content thing a thing for switch and switch 2 or…?

[pliant olive]

I believe JUST Switch. It was somewhere in the announcements.

Yeah, Xbox One, PS4, and Switch. Anything and everything gen 8 of consoles.

Dead.

[keen sail]

5 different types of drones... starting ones don't count afaik

[fathom oracle]

Oh thank god…

[pliant olive]

Congratulations, you must be safe. Enjoy...

[fathom oracle]

In other news I think I’m starting to warm up to Operator

Amp Core seems like it’d be great in the right hands and with the right items

MASSIVE AOE, 2k damage at max charge…

It does like. Half a raw supercharge (though of course RG would also be trying to crit with supercharge so)

Doesn’t captain do 4k% damage with Diablo?

[fathom oracle]

Goodness that’s gotta suck though

[pliant olive]

Well, hopefully there's no new DLC or anything for a few years. I can decide if I want to go for the Switch 2, and if so... Start saving. Like... A LOT.

[white quarry]

Switch 2 isn’t listed as planned for future updates

Given the the ways of the industry switch 2 could be given updates, but from that info page switch 2 should be considered out of the development cycle

They’d obviously release a switch 2 version if they planned to update it so that news would have to come first

Actually I should just summarise this whole thing and pin it

Console platforms that will be receiving updates in the future:
Xbox Series X | S
PS5

Console platforms that won’t be receiving updates from here on out:
Xbox 1
PS4
Switch 1 + Switch 2* (Read down)

*A switch 2 version of ror2 is pretty much completely off the table, it was not listed in the most recent dev diary for Hallowed Collective and thus won’t receive the dlc or the switch 2 edition necessary for said dlc

All of the above info was pulled from here: https://support.2k.com/hc/articles/48628339700371/

[fathom oracle]

Damn

Guess I might have to keep cultivating my PC version save for future DLC’s then.

Oh well

[low egret]

How would you go about fixing constantly disconnecting from my friends runs randomly and its never consistent.

[frail merlin]

Trying to improve my internet connection or switching around the host is usually what I do.

[vagrant sonnet]

what are the chances they fix the bug with artificer anytime soon

[hot hill]

Which one?

[vagrant sonnet]

can’t grab her from the crystal on console

[frail merlin]

Doing a head stomper skip with operator was interesting

[shy ruin]

Don't trust me with 3 stacks of shaped glass

I will take it and then die very soon after

[frail merlin]

Welcome back console sotv xi construct

[wispy crypt]

Hell yeah

[brittle osprey]

why does the mythrix fight and killing mythrix make me so damn emotional everytime

its like the music makes me feel like ive done sum wrong

[quartz bay]

lul xd

genuinely surprised that has never changed

[wispy crypt]

No I think it got fixed but ig broke again with this update

[sharp stratus]

i mean you are capping a legit god who in his dying breath ensures his moon isn’t taken by the void

[frail merlin]

I think it’s even more broken than the sotv version

[quartz bay]

oh thats interesting xd

[upbeat birch]

does anyone know why when i close and open again it goes back to 60Hz refresh rate? what can i do about that

[weary sierra]

Idk if this a new bug but man there goes my cool boss items

[limpid kayak]

OMG.
I can't fucking appear on Titanic Plains to do that fucking quest. It's already my 6th run and it doesn't appear on Newt's dreams. I already disabled all DLCs so it can be more probable to appear...

Screw those crabs, tho.

Isn't there something I can do to have a 100% chance of getting Titanic Plains when looping???

[low egret]

Ty

[vivid rune]

mithrix*

[quartz bay]

mathrix*

[hot hill]

methadone*

[rapid vine]

I jus did the entire moon fight In less than a minute 😔

Without looping on 3p

Physical pain achieved

[short iris]

Nah it never got fixed, it works fine as client for some reason tho

[white quarry]

It never left on Xbox

[wispy crypt]

Adding overgrown printers to the list of unbaggable items

[rigid sun]

The game wont run if i play past a 3 hour game 😭

3rd time ive looped more than 3 times and seen "software was closed because an error occured•

[boreal hemlock]

Yo, happy bday

[frail merlin]

This was a first for me

[short iris]

Ayyyy thank you goat

[wispy crypt]

Thats crazy 😭

[twilit breach]

Hey has anyone on switch reached or beaten the ||alloyed heart|| without crashing? I do everytime. Major dlc spoilers.

[random willow]

is Operator Mastery bugged?

did it on monsoon and didn't get it

killed Mithrix and all

[dapper coyote]

i've done it on xbox 🤷‍♀️

[random willow]

I guess I'll try again

[rigid sun]

Nope

[wispy crypt]

I have beaten sheart but crashed after

[rigid sun]

I get to solus ||solus wing|| 4/5 times it crashes

[wispy crypt]

And another time I reached sheart and crashed there

[rigid sun]

Only crashes if ive looped

[wispy crypt]

I would assume this is related to the memory leaks so remember to restart the game after a run or two

[short iris]

I giggled

@wispy crypt

[wispy crypt]

lol

[brittle osprey]

my daily warframe grind is FINALLY over now i get on ror2

[dusky tendon]

Hey guys, is it possible for keyboard and mouse on console? I have been playing all my other games on kb&m, and cant seem to get ror2 to work

Playing xbox

[sweet edge]

Nope, it doesn't have kb+m functionality

[twilit breach]

Oh I didnt know there was a memory leak, thanks for the heads up

[heady leaf]

Am I able to play ror2 with Xbox cloud gaming

[white quarry]

Don’t think so

Yep you can’t I checked

[foggy summit]

For those who have installed DLC3 on the Switch version, has the bug that prevents you from obtaining "Gesture of the Drowned" been fixed?

[graceful barn]

I am trying to unlock that item now. It doesn't appear to be fixed. I'll keep trying.

[foggy summit]

Thanks for the reply, that's unfortunate

[graceful barn]

It differently isn't fixed. 1 hour of killing crabs and no progress on the Achievement. What a great game.

[abstract galleon]

When did they break unlocking gesture of the drowned? I never had trouble unlocking it on switch

[hot hill]

Same

[limpid kayak]

I finished it today on Xbox One.

Spent 10 hours trying to reach Titanic Plains.

Because Newt decided to recommend me both portals as Distant Roost in some attempts or maps that weren't Titanic Plains.

I love RNG.

Not even disabling all 3 DLCs helped.

[graceful barn]

If you are unlucky it can happen. Idk why it happens but some people are Locked out of ever getting that item. Not sure when it happeneds ether. A 10 out of 10 game would recommend.

[graceful barn]

It be like that sometimes. 😔

[uneven pebble]

anyone know why loader suddenly doesn’t let me play as him, and he’s blacked out in my character select screen? i’m on xbox series X for reference

[vivid rune]

💀

[twilit turret]

does data transfer over from the ps4 version to the ps5 version?

cause if it doesnt i have a lot of grinding to do again

[hot hill]

It does

[knotty dagger]

i just spent 51minutes to lose to the final boss while he was 100hp

[limpid kayak]

You probably tried to connect a second controller, no?

There is a current bug that corrupts your data and sends them back to a previous one on Xbox.

In my case, it went back to 20% completion once and then back to 0%.

You will need to unlock her again.

I recommend making backups of your game data on Xbox.

[golden cradle]

thats fucked up
are you talking about the one on the moon or the other ones

[deft oyster]

Is it me or do I think stoneflux is boring on false son

[silent python]

Do you think it's a fun item on other survivors?

[loud cedar]

So I need to ask did this dlc update fix the crashing on the switch version

[frail merlin]

Nope

[vernal peak]

It is kinda fun on loader

[quartz bay]

it doesn't sound fun

[winged orbit]

ive been in an online que for the switch for like

6 minutes

[quartz bay]

you probably arent gonna find anyone in random lobbies, its better to use #lfg-switch-ror2 to find people instead

[winged orbit]

ohhh alright thank you

[knotty dagger]

the moon🥺

[twilit sable]

Thoughts? Yes it was drizzle and command i was trying to get multiple achievements on 1 run and multiple artifacts

[supple notch]

They're probably not gonna fix that until DLC 4 but it'd be nice if they did a quick little hotfix and fix that bug for us real quick

[vagrant sonnet]

how hard could it be to fix

[supple notch]

Even before Gearbox took over this bug was kinda present at launch too if memory serves me correctly

[vagrant sonnet]

first i can’t get artificer, second i lose mercenary after i unlocked him because it didn’t save it yet or something.

[supple notch]

Wish they would fix it and get it done with already tho bc I almost have every character unlocked on series s except for Artificer and it's all bc of this exact bug too

[vagrant sonnet]

occasionally i get my camera locked in one position, i just wish someone told me this game was a buggy mess before i played.

[supple notch]

Funny enough when I had the game on my PS4 I remember unlocking Artificer with no problem but that was before this game got multiple updates + 3 DLCs

[cosmic gale]

This probably has been asked but is the switch 2 gen 8 or higher? Because I looked at the announcement (I'm late I know because I forgot I have discord) and didn't see anything about switch 2 that all

[vital wren]

Can anyone play with me on xbox

?

[mighty pecan]

There's no Switch 2 version of the game at all

It's not mentioned because it runs the Switch 1 version with a compatibility layer, there never was an upgrade pack

But no, Switch 2 can't be considered a gen 8 console

[frail merlin]

Interesting bug but I did crash a couple second after this

[limpid kayak]

Awesome long run, well done!

[verbal meadow]

i did not know in the corruption portal theres mobs that can steel items and i lost all my bunguses

[deft oyster]

Why did it look like that😭

[wispy crypt]

Ive had that kinda thing happen before in the logbook on older versions

But it never caused crashes like that

[frail merlin]

Probably because the crashing bug wasn’t on switch during that time

[hallow apex]

if you had fun then who cares

keep up the good work and youll platinum it in no time

[vernal peak]

yeah great job 🙂

[leaden flint]

That's really disappointing. I'm happy that even running through the compatibility layer, it runs noticeably better on switch 2. That being said, the resolution is terrible and the framerate is unstable. I mainly play on my pc, but i got it for switch/switch 2 so I can play it on the go. I was really hoping for performance patch for Switch 2, especially since they added the DLC's to it

[violet cairn]

This was a very fun run

I attempted to beat the boss of all 3 DLCs in one go and I died in the last part of alloyed

[mighty pecan]

Switch 2 enhancements are increasingly getting common, so there is a chance - although RoR's history might mean it takes longer than the usual game to receive one

[leaden flint]

Fair. Hopefully they do that with the next dlc (or maybe even before)

[golden cradle]

solus heart is p hard without movement
that benthic fucked you over

[frail merlin]

Finally reached a thousand hour on the switch version alone.

[wispy crypt]

Damn

I gotta lock in more

[hot hill]

Uhhhh

Honestly thought it was more

This one is out of date at the moment, though

Oh neat, the ps app does have the time

[verbal walrus]

I found a aurelionite's blessing

[shy ruin]

Help

[pallid marlin]

did this run on switch 2 a day after buying it, felt good that I got my best run ever after not playing for a while (Ik it’s rainstorm)

couldn’t do video, too many of them to send cuz of how switch records videos :(

[compact roost]

Is that a screen recording, of a screen recording?

[violet cairn]

Yes 🤣

Otherwise they are too big

[pliant olive]

Stupid question.

How do you even play Railgunner? I mean, it's cool that she does big damage to one target. But the whole slowing down and aiming thing...

Also, big damage against one dude doesn't help the five Stone Golems and six or seven Lemurians trying to kill me.

[violet cairn]

I think railgunner isn't meant to be played close range and chaotic like a lot of survivors, I dont play railgunner often though so I don't know what numerous items can do to her playstyle.

The wiki page for her may have some useful info on how to play her too

[violet cairn]

I tried again and got killed on stage 10 because I was using command artifact and got obliterated 😭

[compact roost]

You normally use your big charge shots against only boss (or any bosses that spawn in later stages) and attack speed works really well with her primary fire so anything that has a chance to proc on hit is also really good on her

And if you're ever getting overwhelmed, her shockwave mine thing can clear the area so you're not gonna just explode from all the enemies

[violet cairn]

↑ That makes sense to me 🔥

[valid comet]

Wth?

[white quarry]

(2,793hr)

[hot hill]

Nice

I am someone who struggles to name almost anything as a favorite of a category but there's two things I can. My favorite anime is cowboy bebop and my favorite game is risk of rain 2

[white quarry]

Cowboy Bepop is peak

Attack on Titan is probably my favourite

Or Evangelion

The original + revised ending

[hot hill]

Evangelion series and removies are great

[velvet rain]

i have a simple question, will there be an FAQ for the discontinuation of the gen 8 console? (e.g. will there be a nintendo switch 2 edition of risk of rain 2? (etc.))

[white quarry]

Look at the pinned message

[loud cedar]

Hey I found something weird I was paying ror2 on switch with the commander and sacrifice but I found a large chest can someone explain this if they can

[simple dirge]

Does the dlc sharing on the ps5 still work ?

[wispy crypt]

This spot always has either a big chest or scrapper, not even artifacts disable this spawnpoint

[loud cedar]

Weird

But thanks

[wispy crypt]

Nah its intentional

Think of it like the legendary chest on stage 4

[gleaming ocean]

Theres also a garunteed large chest on the stage 6 version of shattered impact or whatever its called

[hot hill]

Disturbed impact is the loop variant

Shattered abodes is the first versiom

[low cargo]

whats the strat to getting the elder lemurian operator achievement

[shy ruin]

Cube

Just get that equipment

[delicate bramble]

I died on my benthic bloom run, that was fun AF but I got too close to an imp overlord

[turbid thunder]

holy cow good job!!

[vivid rune]

no speed 😔

[delicate bramble]

Who needs that

Also no not really

I used a launch pad to escape one imp overlord

But there was second on waiting for me at the top and he killed me

[noble fulcrum]

Yikeeesss just hopped onto ror2 on switch 2 first time since the update, never had this happen before lol

[wispy crypt]

Thankfully its only at the first 12 seconds and then like once every 10 minutes

[noble fulcrum]

I quit the run after that, is that something that happens at exactly 12 seconds every run? 😭 If so thats absurd

[wispy crypt]

Yup

[noble fulcrum]

Thats.... wow

[wispy crypt]

Eh it could be worse

[noble fulcrum]

Yeah, the framerate could dictate the speed of the game

[wispy crypt]

And like I'll take this ANY day if it delays the crashes or increases overall performance

[noble fulcrum]

Yep just went to check, 12 seconds almost exactly

Its just so crazy to me that we waited like 3 extra months to ensure performance and this is still the state its in 😞

[wispy crypt]

Yeah its rough

I wish that at least the crashes were gone.....

[noble fulcrum]

Havent played enough on switch to get to a crash, not planning on buying the new dlc unless a switch 2 version or upgrade got announced

But ive seen people say its like every other run?

Yikessss

[frail merlin]

Depends on if you are looping, you are pretty much guaranteed to crash after the second or third loop. I never loop so it’s not that bad for me, just remember to reset your game every run so it doesn’t crash.

[cinder hull]

i really hope switch version receives patches soon.

[hexed sedge]

to anyone stuck on switch 1, xbox1, ps4 or any version i forgot that got announced that they will no longer recieve support

if you have 500 dollars laying around i can help you pick out parts for a pc that can run ROR2

not everyone has money laying around but to a few that do or are interested in getting a budget pc ill help you find parts for free as its something i find fun

||id reccomend spending 800 dollars for a computer minimum but if you just wanna play ror2 500 can work||

[quartz bay]

switch players:

[wispy crypt]

Its true

They are actually incapable of making it run well without major bugs

Like this is why they should just ditch switch 1 and continue switch 2 so they dont gotta deal with all the performance optimisation stuff

[noble fulcrum]

Ive genuinely never seen another game this bad about launching with bugs like this

[vernal peak]

Supercell games are also pretty bad at it

[tribal wigeon]

I only barely got the achievement

[chilly thunder]

Anyone wanna play risk of rain with me

[valid comet]

[tribal wigeon]

No proof

[valid comet]

[tribal wigeon]

Why would I get 2 pennies

[tribal wigeon]

I was using prestige swarms command and sacrifice

No way I would be using command

[valid comet]

Lol
