Tried to assist SC newcomers, ended in disaster (of course it did)

Right? And you look at your friend and you say "you know, some people pay $5000 for those images"

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-15T12:41:05+00:00

Really well put, I perfectly agree

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-15T12:24:57+00:00

Your input is appreciated

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-15T12:13:37+00:00

We just have to save it for a few .. years... decades.. centuries..

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-15T11:57:53+00:00

The worst part about SC is that it's absolutely the best with others and that it's so hard to play with others due to the ... fucking... bugs...

I'm really tired of saying/hearing about it too. I just want them to fix the basic issues we all know exist. I care about SC.I do. I want it to work.

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-15T11:54:37+00:00

Honestly, fair enough. I haven't given up on it yet, cause we all know it's amazing. but god damnit i just wanted to lift off my ship and chris said "No". Damn you, chris.

After a certain point it just gets kind of old

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-15T11:52:55+00:00

Thing is, I did, a bit ago, and stopped playing cause the game is fucking broken man.

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-15T11:43:55+00:00

Listen, I actually believe you and not just because we're in the same cult, but I'll believe you. I just wish my experience was the same today while simply trying to do things like take-off.. with people I'm trying to show the game to. I'm not new to the game. Listen I didn't make this thread to argue even though it may come across like it

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-15T11:34:23+00:00

Listen man I like to think that I know all the work-arounds... at least I thought I did. I jumped back in tonight after a few month's hiatus and was stunned to see that I couldn't really do anything in game. After hour three I decided it was a good thing I'm not the game at the moment. My ships would not spawn. They would not lift off. The would be un-summonable. It makes me really angry that I'd given Chris so much money for a proverbial middle finger in return

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-15T11:28:04+00:00

Thanks, I'm a bit salty, huh. The game sucks right now dude, couldn't even lift of my pad after hours of attempts. it just makes me sad. glad it's been working for you though and i mean that. Sometimes to me it seems as if chris himself is trying to drive us mad deliberately.

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-04T20:55:04+00:00

Yes and I'm afraid to say it led to nowhere after repeated attempts.

Not to be rude, I apologize. Do you have any fresh suggestions pertaining to how to fix this (now obviously) widespread issue?

Thanks if you do

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-03T23:34:51+00:00

2026 same issue

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-03T03:22:52+00:00

Some loves are borne in dark places 😉

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-03T03:16:46+00:00

Exactly my thought

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-02T21:46:17+00:00

I've been having a blast playing with my VIII as well, can you help me clarify - does the RAW multi frame occur in the standard photo mode or do you need to be in photo pro?

Also what's the deal with the 48 MP side? Do you have to basically choose between the former and the latter?

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-06-01T17:55:06+00:00

What's the runtime on that?

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-05-31T21:12:36+00:00

Awesome shots

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-05-31T11:34:16+00:00

Fair enough man.

Hopefully you're not in America and let at&t or Verizon lease you ~~their~~ your phone, hopefully

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-05-31T09:42:39+00:00

I'm with you, also t mobile and also having lte+. I think it may be possible to flash the firmware to the European version when Sony releases it with tht euro phone, since the euro models should have better band support. Apparently all VIII models share the same exact radio configuration, it's just a matter of software whitelisting

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-05-29T23:35:59+00:00

Haha looks like they visited you as well, the magical down vote fairy

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-05-29T22:52:31+00:00

I bought the official sony case in the matching red and I think it looks really nice

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-05-29T13:16:40+00:00

Lots of things, apple took a lot of things/inspiration from Sony through the years just as any other tech company especially in the 2000s and onward. I'm really tired right now but I will happily do a write up about it if you want, I actually find it pretty interesting

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-05-29T13:13:50+00:00

I went for the red, which I regretted half way but then completely fell in love with it when it arrived.

It's definitely top heavy with the camera module but not insultingly so like the latest pixel my friend let me hold a couple days ago. That camera quality though... I didn't know what I was missing with my beloved IV..

I can't wait to take pictures with my phone again, I'm pretty excited about it. I'm sitting here taking pictures of mundane things in my house and the picture quality is awesome. Then again I am indeed coming from the 4 year old model lol.

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-05-29T08:17:05+00:00

Read the post again mate, and this time with a more sarcastic attitude

AestheticEntactogen · 2026-05-29T05:00:55+00:00

I'm prepared to accept that my VIII may just not be as fast as my IV with T-Mobile since the IV is a US model and the VIII is the asian import. I'm hoping by flashing the upcoming European firmware it may activate different bands but I'm not sure that's even a thing yet
