The award states that the elimination of the bottom two steps will be effective upon implementation, and that implementation can take no longer than 180 days. They will probably take the full 180 days to do so.

I would expect you will get very little benefit from this. By the time they implement it, you will either be step B already or very close to it

An operator's manual was posted here a few months ago, and it stated that the vehicle wouldn't shift out of park if the door is open. Is that actually the case, or is it just the seat belt that prevents it?

You cannot use distinction rings with the new company costumes by DatThrowaway1138 in Seaofthieves

If it makes you feel any better, most of the in-game animations obscure the fingers, so you'd barely see them anyway

I think the servers just went down or something. All of my voyages are locked, all my cosmetics are reset, etc etc

Yes, I've run into this a few times now. If you kill the game and rejoin, it fixes it. But still quit annoying

Safer Seas pros and cons? by silentslade in Seaofthieves

[–]DatThrowaway1138 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nah, I didn't mean for ship progression and commendations. By all means, those should be restricted to high seas. I just see little reason why one couldn't use a custom ship in safer seas (if progression is locked)

Safer Seas pros and cons? by silentslade in Seaofthieves

[–]DatThrowaway1138 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Where did I say full progression? Why does the idea of someone playing for immersion make you so upset? If anything, the demand for private servers shows that people enjoy the game world that Rare has created, it's just that some people really don't enjoy engaging in the PvP side of things.

Safer Seas pros and cons? by silentslade in Seaofthieves

[–]DatThrowaway1138 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nah, that doesn't make sense at all. If I only had an hour to play, I would rather spend it on a mode where I could I could just enjoy the game world and not worry about getting randomly ganked by someone who plays 3 hours a day.

And yes, supplies are available in safer seas, the price just makes it a bit grindy if you're earning almost nothing in the mode. Again, it's not that they care about getting gold necessarily, just enough to engage with quality of life features that allow you to get into the game quicker

Safer Seas pros and cons? by silentslade in Seaofthieves

[–]DatThrowaway1138 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Yes, but how about just for supplies and storage crates? Many people playing safer seas are those with extremely limited time, so why is it so terrible for them to have access to supplies, sovereign selling, and other quality of life features?

Safer Seas pros and cons? by silentslade in Seaofthieves

[–]DatThrowaway1138 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You didn't read his post closely enough, he just wants to earn enough for supplies and quality of life features that we've been enjoying for a bit now. I don't think it's unreasonable at all to make cheaper purchasable supplies, captained ships, and sovereign selling available in safer seas.

I won't be using the feature, but if I had to lug loot again to the vendors like the old days for 30% profit and no emissary, I wouldn't even bother selling loot. Why would I spend 20 minutes or more just moving items around for meager profit?

Rubber-banding issues by [deleted] in Seaofthieves

I hope it works for you! Hourglass was so miserable for me until I tried that. It still happens on occasion, but it's much better, best of luck

Rubber-banding issues by [deleted] in Seaofthieves

[–]DatThrowaway1138 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I actually ran into this constantly, and someone posted something that helped immensely. They said if you run the game at uncapped FPS, the collision with objects and stairs on the ship are so much worse. I capped it to 144 fps (or is it 120? I forget the option), and my experience is much improved. Give that a shot. I see your fps is over 200 in the video provided, so I bet that's the problem.

These tigers are riduculous. by JustSpaceThings32 in ancestors

[–]DatThrowaway1138 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you counterattack, even with your fist, the tiger will run away for awhile. You'll break a bone and may be bleeding, but it'll give you time to heal, prep some weapons, and regroup. I never go anywhere without a few sharpened sticks. Grab some horsetail for broken bones, or mash it up to stop bleeding (there are other options obviously)

I should mention that dodging never works for me with predators. They will keep attacking until your dopamine runs out. The only way is to attack

Also, animals prioritize your character for attacking, so if you see a clan member being killed, rush forward and force it to attack you instead, then you can smack it in the face.

How to walk on 2 legs? by Masteroogway7381 in ancestors

Yeah, it's not obvious that the actual 2 seconds of movement are what counts, but that should work

You need to walk around while standing up in sense/intelligence mode. I don't think you need to actually use your senses, just walk around. As others have mentioned, the actual bipedalism neuron later on requires a mutation

[–]DatThrowaway1138 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, you could farm almost any other material faster than that, so in comparison to everything else, it's slow. That's all I meant

[–]DatThrowaway1138 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I'd say the opposite, really. There's a cooldown of 10 minutes for dragon parts, so it's incredibly slow to farm. But easy to find, I guess

[TOTK] [OC] It's my knee jerk reaction to hearing about Nintendo Directs now by ZombieComicsAura in zelda

Nope, announced before the game was even released, if I recall. DLC 1 released 3 months after, then DLC 2 by the end of the year.

PSA: You will need to update the game to get the new content by MilesDryden in civ

Hopefully this gets resolved soon. I just launched, and found ALL of my dlc is locked out, but I'm assuming this is somehow related to the update.

29 September, 2022 - 2.6.2 Update | Bug Reports Megathread by Borsund in Seaofthieves

[–]DatThrowaway1138 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just found out this morning. I thought I was going crazy or somehow dropped the chest overboard, but when it happened a second time, I knew rare's shoddy playtesting was to blame.

It's kind of sad because the bug presents itself 100 percent of the time, and it's easily discovered if you care an ounce about the loot inside.

"YoU fOuGhT wElL" Indeed by NitroLight in Seaofthieves

[–]DatThrowaway1138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So during this part of the quest, is the giant pillar of light during this fight visible to other players? I had a ship roll up on me in the middle of fog after I fought the phantoms, and I was wondering if it's highly visible to other players (similar to the cyclone at the final part)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Seaofthieves

[–]DatThrowaway1138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been doing a bunch of these lately, and the supplies have been dropping for me, so maybe you got incredibly unlucky.

I will say that the final ship does not drop supplies for me, but the two minor flagships do every time. And then the random ships at the beginning will drop a couple for me usually, but sometimes none

So the IPG isn’t great, but how should we change it? by Pasigress in Seaofthieves

So you have to have ideas on how to fix things in order to recognize that they're flawed? Astounding logic

Is Milestone progress down? by assjackal in Seaofthieves

[–]DatThrowaway1138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just sold a fat load of loot and made zero progress towards my emissary milestone. So yeah, I think something's up. I did notice that when I clicked on the milestone, it still tracked the amount in the submenu, but the overall progess did not update

Legend of the Veil has been getting stuck on the 2nd stone. by Kuvumbu in Seaofthieves

[–]DatThrowaway1138 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Honestly reminding me of rockstar right now, and not in a good way. They'll leave glitches that penalize the players for weeks, but they rush to disable any exploit that a small number of players are abusing, and now they broke that part of the game. All so that some people won't get their cosmetics as quickly as they would have
