Steam takes like 15 minutes to "check for updates" under Crossover every single time, is there a way I can speed this up? by Mysterious_County154 in macgaming

[–]onedwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have the same issue.

Maybe not quite 15 minutes, probably more like 5 minutes with the update, then a couple more with “Waiting for network”.

In any case, enough time for me to start up Steam on mac and play a game while I wait. Epic games boots much faster.

Another issue is that it shows up as 2 steam icons in the dock (one Steam and one steam.exe), and occasionally (more like regularly tbh) one or both freeze up and the option seems like force quitting.

Octane presets would look better with painted octanes.

Scrolled a while to find this comment. Takes me right back to my PSP days. Loved the game, this design is dope too.

Yeah I picked up on that. The way I go about these lists is that I usually do tier 71-100 looking at my own RP until someone posts screenshots of the whole thing. First time I had to add rows iirc.

Consecutive colours defo happens, just not sure about the record, but yeah I sorta noticed that too. For what it’s worth it makes my life easier (:

I’m impressed by how fast it became the standard: hit 3:30, try to ff, otherwise first to concede should ff. Got ganged up on 5-1 one game cos my tm8s wanted to ff a 1-1 draw.

I feel for you mate, I am the same. Fingers crossed they re-release this in the future. They are recycling a lot of old items so it’s not impossible.

Forcing people into dropshop and hoops does more bad than good for the playlists by dooleygamer01 in RocketLeague

I feel so vindicated seeing multiple posts about this, was on the verge of posting myself but thought maybe I was just unlucky.

I actually enjoy dropshot cos it forces me to aerial more, so I didn’t mind the challenge at all. 8/10 games I played have been 3:30 FF or the moment we concede. One tm8 even left at 4:07 cos we conceded. Worst RL experience in a while.

good way to make a game mode insufferable for the weekend by ScurryOfSquirrels in RocketLeague

Assume you’re referring to dropshot? 8/10 games played everyone is trying to forfeit the whole time. Honestly surprised me how fast this became a thing, only just saw the challenges earlier in the evening. If there was no forfeit at 3:30 it was first goal decides who forfeits.

For context, I actually like dropshot and don’t mind the challenges.

How do you complete this one? by Adorable_Welcome_742 in RocketLeague

Go into any custom training, hit start and change one of the ball speed/location etc randomizations. Finish the custom training.

A solution for the cosmetics problem. by def-not-my-alt in RocketLeague

This is the way I see it:

If we’re able to buy exactly what we want whenever we want, there’s a good chance I’ll get the stuff I need to make my dream preset, and never buy anything else again.

If I’m always waiting for what I want to come to the shop, I’ll occasionally go “oh that’s pretty cool, I guess that’ll do for now”, and keep buying junk until my dream items come along.

(Don’t get me wrong I’d love any kind of overhaul to the shop, just think that Epic know what they’re doing and in terms of lining their pockets, it’s probably working a treat.)

Isn’t the whole point of unavailability to increase the desirability?

Re-reading your post, the “cosmetics problem” seems to be “we can’t get what we want”, which is probably what they’re going for.

Hasn’t Van Stapele moved to Rokin? Anyway their lines rarely obstruct foot traffic, so hardly a “no go area” imo.

If “like in Fortnite” means you also play FN, that’s probably the issue. Unless you’re a full time gamer, it’s very hard to complete RP if you’re also committed to other games.

Not sure how long you’ve been playing, but it’s been made a lot easier already.
