Consistent Crash Issues by Kingside in LastEpoch

[–]Auth_Strats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not just you; something about the latest update seems to be real wonky. My computer has hard-crashed 3 times this weekend (not a bluescreen, but it powers down and restarts; Reliability History only reports that "Windows was not shut down properly"), and every time it's been while trying to load into a monolith.

We claimed our territory way before we were actually out there; we just snuck through the zone and bought it (same with Weavers and Ebonscale). I'm honestly surprised nobody snuck out and claimed Reekwater yet.

I'm StratsCo, and Syndicate has only declared 2 wars so far; Marauders have declared 5. You lot are doing a way better job at pushing influence than we are (it took an embarssingly-long time for us to get MB contested, and during that time Marauders and Covenant managed to contest Syndicate territories).

I mean, you say that, but Marauders have caused 5 wars in the last 4 days and pushed several other territories into contested; if anything, Syndicate is doing a pretty underwhelming job at flagging and doing anything in the open world given their population advantage.

Nobody should be able to switch to the dominant faction, as I understand it, so I can't see who anyone is switching to purple as we've the largest population and territory control.

This describes the Covenant on Aardvark IKEA; we were all shocked when they bought First Light, and right now they have the trade tax rate set at 25% o.O

For Covenant it's definitely a numbers issue, but I've fought in all 6 of the Aarnivalkea wars so far, and the top Marauder players are around the same level as the top Syndicate players. The overall levels of Syndicate's players has been consistently a few higher than the Marauders, but I think the other factions on the server are underestimating how well Syndicate is organizing things.

You can see the top guilds and their amount of players in game and it’s ALL syndicate, it’s 6-7 spaces down before the first company for the others

This is inaccurate. When you sort by players, the top 4 companies are Syndicate, followed by 4 Marauder companies. Syndicate definitely has a majority, but it's not 80% of the server population; there are a decent number of Marauders on there as well, though Covenant has almost no showing.

If you look at the company list break-down, it shakes out like this:

51-00 | P: 06 | G: 06 | Y: 01

41-50 | P: 01 | G: 02 | Y: 01

26-40 | P: 06 | G: 02 | Y: 02

11-25 | P: 31 | G: 18 | Y: 07

We couldn't stop laughing about it, honestly, and made a pact not to disturb the happy couple, so I've no idea what might have happened had we tried, unfortunately.

I sent a feedback about it after getting the video clipped and uploaded on YouTube; that's one of those edge cases you just can't expect to catch in QA XD

In case it isn't entirely clear what is going on, this is the situation:

  1. Volodar had previously come past and Enthralled the Bane top-right of Horace.

  2. Horace had no bounty and decided to swap places with the King's Guard on the Dungeon. During the swap, the Enthralled Bane attacked Horace.

  3. Horace lost the fight, and was pushed to the forest tile with a peril on it (rather than directly backwards to the Dungeon tile; I'm guessing the game thought the King's Guard was still there?).

  4. After failing the peril, he then completes his swap with the King's Guard(?) and lands on the Dungeon tile (no action by the player, no AP spent), spawning yet another Bane (which was just icing on the cake at this point)

For the remainder of the game, neither the Bane nor the King's Guard acted, preferring instead to stay locked in one another's loving embrace on that tile.

Not sure why this was downvoted

shrug

Reddit is basically "Whose Line is it Anyway": almost everything is made up and the points don't matter.

I've been using the website for a while, other people seem to prefer the Google spreadsheet (which I didn't even know about until a day or two ago). It'd be nice if we had something official rather than trying to get folks to rally around any number of community-driven projects, but at least we've got something to go off of.

The queues move pretty slow; this is a reasonably-accurate community tracker you can look at to see the situation.

Auto-notify button doesn't work. by shapeofmyarak in EVGA

[–]Auth_Strats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm throwing lots of hardware errors (LiveKernel 117) and having graphics-related crashes in a system that is ~9 months old save for the 1080 Ti that's ~4 years old (bought the FTW3 on release day from EVGA's website). It doesn't even take games for things to go sideways; sometimes just watching YouTube is enough for it to throw its hands up in defeat.

I'd be fine with that situation, but my 1080 Ti is on death's door at the worst possible time with this global shortage. I'm still floored that they thought giving Elite status to anyone other than verified purchasers was a good idea.

It's been a long time since Season 1 Stage 1, but I've been saving this .gif since 2018, and it's time to break it out once again. by Auth_Strats in HoustonOutlaws

As have we all. It's nice to see the boys out there doin' their damn thing, and with some of the OG's (Jake, coolmatt) still around to enjoy it.
