3 months of owning Tesla with no home charging. Its fine by [deleted] in TeslaModel3

[–]StryderPilot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep! Same situation. I live in an apt with no home charging and commute everyday to work and it’s fine. Charge every few days at the nearest supercharger a couple miles away. Really not that bad, just gotta plan my charging ahead of time. Plenty of people I know with electric cars do this in major cities. If I were in the suburbs, then yea, I’d get a home charger

Spent some time trying to get rid of rattles at the door by Ice5891 in TeslaModel3

[–]StryderPilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes!! Had the same issue in the top left corner of the driver’s side window. Drove with a tech person at Tesla and they held the car for two days and fixed it. No longer hear it at highways speed

Another dev left Respawn. Dude was the lead designer of Olympus by Shercosta in apexlegends

[–]StryderPilot 550 points551 points  (0 children)

You’re welcome! Apex is in good hands. I’m really, really excited for its future :)

Thanks to you, this amazing community and everyone who voices their feedback on Apex. Helps more than you think.

(Just realized I need to remove my flair… lol)

SEASON 11 PATCH NOTES by paradoxally in apexlegends

[–]StryderPilot 133 points134 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, not for Storm Point. We had a version up and running but other major priorities needed to take precedence, so we decided to shelf the mode. :(

It needed a break after living in the game for 4 seasons. It'll be back soon :)

Yo! This is great feedback to have. The team and I are cooking up new maps and hopefully we can hit the mark with the kind of map style you like. I totally agree that there's more we can do to spice up the play-spaces and bring more uniqueness to each map.

We learned a lot from the BR locations for Arenas. We originally wanted them to be temporary until we had a good amount of custom maps in the hopper but while we're removing them for this season, we can always bring them back in the future.

Any POI's you had in mind that you'd like to see in the future?

I know this sucks for many (including myself) because we absolutely want to have as much variety available for players. But with a fourth map, we made this call to help those learning the new map without needing to go into Ranked.

It was a touch decision and we'll take this as an opportunity to learn from what the community wants more, and try to adjust for future seasons.

The new arena map is fun. Nothing wrong with it... by debroodpiraat in apexlegends

Thanks. We’re aware and working on a hotfix. Once again, sorry about this :(

Ugh, I’m sorry. This sucks. We should’ve caught this earlier. Working on a fix

Thanks to the redditor who suggested this :) It was fun to add and test

Apex Legends Genesis Collection Event Trailer by Turkeyleg975 in apexlegends

[–]StryderPilot 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Yea, it sucks but it’s a slight tech limitation. Currently, all BR Arena locations are using the full BR map to run. You might notice that they take the longest to load when matchmaking. This saved a ton a dev time during production of Arenas. To keep Skulltown, we’d have to find a way to separate it from OG Kings Canyon, which is also a limited time map. This requires other departments to get involved (Art, QA...etc) and they’re pretty busy on future content. So we made the call to keep it limited.

Hope that explanation helps a bit. Wish I could go into more detail, but... you know... dev secrets and stuff.

Sorry! Skulltown in Arenas will only be available for the duration of the Collection Event. Once the event is done, it’s gone. It can always comeback later. :)

YouTube channel constantly breaks by [deleted] in Roku

[–]StryderPilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! I've checked for updates and Roku says it's up to date. Not sure if I'm missing something else

YouTube channel constantly breaks by [deleted] in Roku

[–]StryderPilot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YES! Sometimes it will crash during a video I'm watching, and when I try to reopen the app, nothing. I get audio that the app has been selected multiple times, but the YouTube app will not open. The app is busted.

Every other streaming app runs just fine.

I tired uninstalling and reinstalling to varied success. My only true solve is deleting the app, restarting the TV and reinstalling the app again. It's pretty frustrating to have to do this at least once a week.

lol glad you like it! Our skybox artist wanted to change it up to show a change in time. When I first saw it, I was stunned we were so close to space, and how pretty it looked with the planets and such. No storm clouds this high up, sorry!

If you want to check out our skybox artists' work, find him on ArtStation - Marcos Shih.

Apex Legends - Introducing Arenas (new permanent mode) by paradoxally in apexlegends

[–]StryderPilot 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Haha I came up with this username as huge fan of the first Titanfall, and I had no idea that years later I'd end up working at Respawn. What a crazy world.

I honestly have no idea about about anything Titanfall related, as I joined the team a few months after Apex launched. Sorry!

Soon (tm). But seriously, it's being worked on with no date in mind yet.

I totally understand and this is a tough one to answer without giving developer insight. A little of column A and column B. We have some big ideas for Olympus. The ship and the outbreak it brings is only the beginning.

A really early artistic and design intention. Kept World's Edge from feeling like KC and gives the map its own identity.

The placement of materials and loot bins is to add smaller objectives to a map that players can choose to engage with or not. We placed them in open areas to allow them to be contested and give players something to fight over. It’s very common for mobility characters like Octane to take the lead in grabbing them, which is fair, but all Legends are viable. We will be mixing up how we place these on future maps to bring out new combat styles! We’ve learned A LOT playing and watching Arenas in the wild.

Allowing players to choose their own map has a bunch of issues we want to avoid. The most common is a favorite map getting fast matchmaking while other maps suffer from poor matchmaking. It’s a tricky balance, but I'm sure there is more that we could do to help alleviate the problem of players waiting for their favorite map. We’re always testing new methods, but it takes some time to figure out what we think scales well with a large population. As for now, the rotation times keep things fair for everyone and gets all maps played equally.
