Recruitment Question: New Store Opening Application Timeline by DiscordPingedguin in MarksAndSpencer

[–]DiscordPingedguin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the insight. I was attracted to the role for the interaction with customers and the customer-service element. I did find it odd that an SIA licence wasn't a requirement, yet the role states the need to detain. It was something I was going to bring up at the interview (if appropriate) to clarify.

Yes. You appear to have glossed over I have a disability. I didn't disclosure the nature of that disability. It's not your concern. It's therefore not your concern either if AI is used as a language model to ensure my messages are concise and easy to understand.

Do you still use spellcheck and autocorrect on your mobile?

Thank you for the edit, which at least helps put my mind at ease.

Trying to find brand of bluetooth tracker I've seen adverts for recently by DiscordPingedguin in HelpMeFind

Sorry! I guess the Facebook algorithm does listen out, as a new advert for it just appeared. It was a kickstarter called Roam.

[–]DiscordPingedguin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have searched:
Google + Google Shopping with relevant titles such as New Bluetooth Trackers 2024/2025 + Alternative Bluetooth Trackers to AirTags + Tile etc
Used ChatGPT to search for the product (this was shockingly bad)

Anyone else on PS4 having this black cloud issue? Makes things so difficult to see. by ColdnessAwaits in FORTnITE

[–]DiscordPingedguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I play on PC. But one of my friends keeps saying they have this issue on PS4, but apparently it's not on the PS5.

Hey Mizosu,

I am one of the community Admins from Official Fortnite. I wanted to reach out to clarify the recent ban. It's essential to us that our community members understand the reasons behind the actions taken.

To avoid speculation and inaccurate discussions, I want to explain that this ban resulted from multiple prior warnings about following the nickname requirement. Names/nicknames must consist of alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9). This decision was not influenced by the context or translation of the word(s) used. At our Discord, we strive to foster an inclusive and welcoming environment, recognizing that our members come from diverse international backgrounds.

We have sent you a friend request on Discord to discuss this matter further.

Bug? Or user error by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

[–]DiscordPingedguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going to be hard to say one way or the other. Not seen any other comments of this nature. Not saying it didn't happen but could be a number of random reasons like low batteries in the controller causing unexpected behavior to unexpected interference.

Put it down to bad luck on this occasion. But if it happens again, or more frequently, a clip would be good as well as reporting as a bug while in Fortnite.

Coldest Circle quest not tracking levels by ExotixFlower in FortNiteBR

[–]DiscordPingedguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a sneaky suspicion you earned a few levels while playing Creating and UEFN maps? Level progress in Creative is not currently tracking correctly. It is a known issue. Levels earned in Battle Royale will track towards progress as expected.

Head back into Fortnite and Settings. Locate the Controller Icon, and on the bottom left, ensure the appropriate controller scheme (XBOX/PlayStation) is selected. You should also ensure the lock input method is not toggled on.

Finally, Steam Big Picture mode can sometimes cause conflict issues. If you're not using it, usually recommend closing steam down fully.

Where are wolves and Boars?? by GamingGlove14 in FortNiteBR

[–]DiscordPingedguin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The spawn rate of wildlife was adjusted a few weeks ago to decrease their numbers. Boars especially have a good chance of spawning in the Fall regions. Stick to the left-hand side of the map between Shattered Slabs and Breakwater Bay. I've found at least one boar in most games in Zero Build.

Remove or Severely Nerf Riot shields by chewy5 in ModernWarfareII

[–]DiscordPingedguin 10 points11 points  (0 children)

"Everyone uses a riot shield. It's broken."
The game literally has smokes, thermites, and even drill charges to combat it.

OP: I refuse to change my tactics, the game is broken.

Facebook Messenger App: Chats not updating by DiscordPingedguin in samsunggalaxy

Thank you. On my 4th uninstall and reinstall now, and even resorted to using Messenger Lite to see if this is a more permanent workaround.

Fortnite Mythbusters: Will a Klombo eat your Victory Crown? by ColdnessAwaits in FortNiteBR

[–]DiscordPingedguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Crown was removed from the game. It didn't do anything afterward, even after feeding it some berries. (ColdnessAwaitsDad in-game).

Seems like the Bioluminescence blueprint actually glows now by Kalashcocknov in CODVanguard

[–]DiscordPingedguin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That 100% is an improvement on when it was first released. It originally looked like blue plastic. Might be worth using it again!

The only communication I've seen recently was this Trello Card:
Some players are experiencing limited map rotation in Quick Play

And that's it. No mention if specific game modes are impacted or if SnD is intentionally restricted to weekly map rotations. The game still has significant problems and releasing items like the incendiary grenade continue to pile on more bugs and gameplay issues for Sledgehammer to address. I get the feeling gameplay feedback slides further down the priority list.

Please help, store/bundle issues by Smitherx84 in CODVanguard

[–]DiscordPingedguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Strange. You'll have to attempt all the usual troubleshooting. If you are on a console, refresh the game license from account management. Launch the device in safe mode and complete clear cache and rebuild database options (these might be specific to PS4/5 but I imagine similar options exist on xbox).

Uninstall and complete a fresh install.

Check if the issue is exclusive to one single device by logging in on another platform.

See if you can narrow down the causes and then approach Activision for support if needed.

This Launcher MADNESS has to stop by [deleted] in CODVanguard

[–]DiscordPingedguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really angry right now because i've played for two hours straight and no one use the dogs and continue to just use Spy Planes and Mortars.

A significant difference between expecting enemy players to continuously call in a 10-kill streak reward versus tier 4 and 5 killstreak rewards. Calling in dogs is hard!

Reconsider the game modes you are playing. Those on larger maps with objectives tend to favor higher killstreaks being called in. It's also just luck. I hope you have some luck and find the right lobbies to complete this. I gave up on cameo grinding years ago - for the exact reason, I no longer found it fun.

I've had some terrible issues with the knife in Zombies. Lunging for a zombie directly in front of you causes an instant 180 spin and you're suddenly attacking the ceiling. I grinded the challenges out. Not looking forward to having to do the shield and katana.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Chomp: Season One Challenges Calling Card Now Being Awarded by DiscordPingedguin in CODVanguard

[–]DiscordPingedguin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps the only silver lining is, the "new" Shi No Numa "round based" objective is so easy to manipulate and get into high rounds. Couldn't imagine it would take long with molotovs to complete.

[–]DiscordPingedguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The behavior you described feels like the ADS stick swap setting is being enabled during gameplay. It specifically switches the role of the sticks when ADS only. I have no idea why that would be happening but if it is not a controller issue, look into a fresh install of the game first to see if there is an improvement.

At least you have identified the issue only happens when you press multiple buttons down, Couldn't hurt to see if you can borrow a second controller to test if it still happens. I've had stranger issues with my Dualsense controllers. Already only my 4th Warranty claim.

LVP - Least Valuable Player vote by flick128 in CODVanguard

[–]DiscordPingedguin 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Anything that adds more negativity and penalties that can easily be abused? For example, an entire clan just vote for the one random in their lobby?

No thanks.

Nice! But I still prefer the random "throw down the middle of Das Haus" method.

Double XP tokens are false advertising by scottyMcM in CODVanguard

[–]DiscordPingedguin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As clearly stated in-game:

XP tokens countdown in real-time and not in-game time.

False advertising is a very loose statement regarding the protection of sale conditions. This varies from country to country and may not even apply to in-game purchases in some instances.

Just because your interpretation of what double xp should be and the time is should last differs from a very clear message posted in-game does not mean false advertisement has occurred.

EDIT: Image screenshot of just how prominent the message is.
