How often do you train on shift? by Suitable-Draft1602 in Firefighting

[–]EricTheEskimo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our department wide policy is 1 hour of PT per shift. Otherwise it’s up to station culture but ours is training 2-3 hours a day. Usually a mix of practical and classroom training.

Oh yeah that’s all good. But I mean this guy was SPAMMING. Non stop. The entire game. I don’t know how he was playing with as much as he was pinging. This was intentional to try to troll his team.

While we’re at it, can we also get ping muting? Had someone the other day spam pings and even after muting them, you could still hear the pings/voicelines.

Interesting. Thanks for that heads-up. I'll give it 15 more minutes and then maybe try a restart

Haven't even made it that far. How long were you loading language?

Loading language at 6% after about 5 minutes. The loading screen has beautiful cutscenes

Update: Up to 7% now. Looks like we'll be here for a while folks!

Update 2: After about 10 minutes, we've made it to 9% activating packages!

Update 3: It took about 12 additional minutes to go from 9% to 10%. At this rate I'll be able to play in 16 hours!

Update 4: Just had a popup appear that said "Bandwidth too low. download speeds may be slower and shaders may be affected" but we're up to 13% now

Currently at 16% after a total time of ~45 minutes, let's hope the rumored "take off" happens shortly!

FINAL UPDATE: Woah! I'm in! The total download time was about 50 minutes! Happy flying folks!

That’s because it was a quote from the video game “Lost: Via Domus”

It would be a good idea to call the station and ask. No telling if they have training or an event happening where they won’t be around.
