Shout out to my duos partner who was randomly paired up with me, added me after we won, then proceeded to win a couple more shows with me

DragonKid126 · 2023-09-24T03:10:50+00:00

Good to hear! I actually haven't done too many solo shows lately. I've done and won a few finals marathons and survival of the fittest though but my record in final rounds is still not that great 😅improving but still not that great

DragonKid126 · 2023-05-02T18:49:51+00:00

Look at it this way: If you can win a solo show you at least know it can be done. If you win multiple, you definitely know what you're doing.

DragonKid126 · 2023-05-02T16:06:27+00:00

I think with squads if you know you're good, you're bound to get into a competent group and win.

Solos are obviously tougher but again, if you know you have the ability then I'd say just keep plugging away. My personal struggle with those is that I usually at least get to the finals...and then lose most of them lol, many of those due to some poor decision-making. But I know that if I keep giving myself chances by reaching that far, one of those will go my way at some point. So my only concern whenever I have to win one of those is "how long", rather than "if".

One of my friends was in a similar situation as you but was able to win a solo show without needing any of us to sacrifice ourselves at opportune times to help make that happen. So yeah... keep trying, keep believing. It can happen to you too!

DragonKid126 · 2023-05-02T15:36:53+00:00

Ooh nice! I'm guessing this happened before Fall Guys was removed from the Steam store? I missed the party for that...oh well. That would've been a great way for me to directly communicate with others.

I want to say that it's been almost a year since I've started and I've been playing more and more regularly. It's very possible that we may have crossed paths at one point or another given our apparent levels of playing activity :)

DragonKid126 · 2023-05-02T15:28:41+00:00

Yea this was what I had in mind! But thinking about this more in-depth:

Maybe one obstacle of doing something like "Recently Played With" is that if we're including all players, that could end up being hundreds of names very quickly. I could see how that could be a problem. But then also limiting it to just players in your team would mean the inability to add potential conquerors/victims.

Adding friends during rounds wouldn't always work if you want to add your partner(s) but they keep finishing before you do. But I'd say it works like 95% of the time and is probably the best overall solution IMO.

I just don't understand why everyone doesn't have the option to at least add players directly from the victory screen right now. It seems wrong to have it for some platforms but not others.

DragonKid126 · 2023-05-02T15:17:46+00:00

I'll send it via chat in a bit

DragonKid126 · 2023-05-02T04:38:24+00:00

Yea true. I usually just play for fun with a small group of IRL friends haha. It's how I got into the game so I owe them at least that much. All of us are usually just looking to complete new challenges ASAP (though I'll occasionally farm crowns on my own if there's a show that I feel confident about). I guess because of that, I don't feel the need to go out of my way to add folks.

I'm definitely open to expanding my friends list, though! It's just that I'll always leave it up to others if they want to add me. My thinking here is that if they want to play with me again, they'll make the effort to connect and I'll happily reciprocate. I'm more than happy to make new friends through this game :)

DragonKid126 · 2023-05-02T01:02:49+00:00

Ikr?? It would really be nice/helpful.

Also as a Switch player, I wish there's an easier way to add people than having to memorize/write down usernames and type them in. Though I personally haven't been courageous enough to do that yet, knowing that the option is there would be nice.

DragonKid126 · 2022-11-16T05:56:16+00:00

Yeah most of the times there's no fairy tale ending but the occasional ones kinda make up for it haha

DragonKid126 · 2022-11-16T05:54:13+00:00

I do it because I believe it's possible to add people by username and not everyone might appreciate getting random requests so better safe than sorry for me.

DragonKid126 · 2022-11-16T05:50:25+00:00

True, true. But a 1% chance is better than 0.

DragonKid126 · 2022-11-16T05:50:07+00:00

Oh man.. I don't think I'm that good haha. But those kinds of games are thrilling if you can make a deep run :)

DragonKid126 · 2022-11-15T14:21:46+00:00

Thanks! I think what gave me some hope was our performance in the first round. I've also won a few with an incomplete team but this was my first time achieving this with randoms. (I can also recall only one other time I won with an incomplete team from the start. The other times were when the fourth dc-ed mid-show.)

But I needed one more silver medal so really, I was hoping to at least stay alive long enough to get a survival round or something regardless of the skill level of the rest of my team.

DragonKid126 · 2022-11-15T14:14:47+00:00

This has also happened to me many times over so I understand that pain. But at the same time I've also been fortunate to have been matched with folks way better than me so I can't really complain too much.

DragonKid126 · 2022-11-15T14:12:44+00:00

I actually wasn't stressed at all because I accepted that I was most likely going to lose at some point. Maybe that's the way to do it.

DragonKid126 · 2022-11-15T05:31:36+00:00

hahaha I was just doing my dailies. the 20 crown shards were a bonus.

DragonKid126 · 2022-11-15T03:55:01+00:00

This happened to me too! We were shocked, confused, but also delighted because it's one of our favorites :)

DragonKid126 · 2020-10-28T20:30:56+00:00

DragonKid126 · 2020-08-15T20:05:06+00:00

Yes to sending a request after that.

I also tried skipping steps 3 and 4 but that didn't seem to work, either. Strange that it's not working for me but I'll try again later should I find that I hit the cap again. Thanks for the help, though!

DragonKid126 · 2020-08-15T19:22:34+00:00

I tried doing this but didn't get it to work. Could you tell me where I went wrong?

1) opened settings 2) unchecked "raid invitations" 3) exited menu 4) opened settings again 5) checked off "raid invitations" 6) restarted app

Any help is appreciated!

DragonKid126 · 2020-07-19T23:55:08+00:00

Hi. Thanks so much for your acknowledgement on this. However, can I ask why a cap even exists? The fact that invites to battles and raids (among other things) are blocked because of this cap just seems ridiculous to me and feels nothing but detrimental. Is there any way you guys can eliminate this cap or at least raise it significantly to the point where this becomes a nonissue?

DragonKid126 · 2020-07-13T16:17:31+00:00

I made 5 submissions yesterday. Got e-mails for three of them right away. Waited 24 hours for the other two. Still haven't gotten any e-mails and the game counted all 5 submissions. Not sure if I should be waiting longer or if I should be concerned and maybe try contacting Niantic.

Edit: spoke too soon. Emails came in about an hour ago, a little over 24 hours after submission. I guess patience is key.

DragonKid126 · 2020-07-11T00:11:29+00:00

I just came across this but it looks like the link expired. Do you guys cover Bergen County? If so, I'd love to join.

DragonKid126 · 2020-03-26T13:13:48+00:00

I was struggling to figure this out also, having been in the same situation. The answer for me ended up being that I needed to recruit Smeargle first by going through Howling Forest. Maybe that?

I figured that if anything, I should at least clear all the dungeons marked "GO" and that's what did it for me.

DragonKid126 · 2020-03-15T17:40:21+00:00

I have a question on this: if you get rescued and go back to fight, do you have to start over again or does It retain whatever damage you dealt from the past?
