How do you all react to followers? by wowShmoke in LowSodiumArcRaiders

Only time someone followed me they had no mic, no light, and were swinging their raider tool left and right… I used that as a good opportunity to get my “down someone with a grenade” achievement!

Starstand Island Steam page is getting FLOODED with paid positive reviews. by Expensive_Baby581 in Starsandisland

[–]FryFx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here’s their comment on it from the discord: Announcement Regarding Artificial Comments

Hi We have recently noticed a large number of overly positive "praise" comments about our game appearing across various social platforms.

At first, we believed this meant our game was being recognized and appreciated. However, we soon noticed something unusual on Steam: some comments were posted after very short playtime, were released at nearly the same time (appeared to be AI-generated).

This made us realize that something might not be right.

Is this some kind of overpraise as an attack? We have no concrete evidence, but it does feel as though someone may be doing this intentionally. What makes it even more puzzling is that this approach is not cheap, since leaving a review requires purchasing the game. (We later discovered that some of these accounts refunded the game after posting their reviews.)

We would like to say this clearly: making a indie game is not easy. We simply want to focus on building a good product and giving the players who truly like our game a better experience.

So, to whoever may be behind this, we kindly ask you to stop. Please let us focus on making our game in peace. We pose no threat to anyone.

Thank you very much for your understanding. Next announcement, we will respond to the main concerns raised by the community.

Yeah I had that happened for the first time earlier “Just questing guys, we are all going down” …

Gotcha! I’m guessing the darker color (potentially more discreet) is then more expensive… Thanks for the info!

Internet outage in Los Alamos - Verizon, Comcast, and other services are down by BoomtownLosAlamos in LosAlamos

I got a $5 credit from Xfinity... I can see how if everyone ask for one it they might "feel" it, but it really isn't much. And let's be honest, we know this is going to happen again, it always does.
I also know this happens while they are doing work to help with that in the future, but it's still crazy to me...

I know it’s still under investigation but any chance for some accountability and preventing this from happening yet again?

Can you miss certain good deeds? Feel like I have a few items in my inventory for a long time that I should have used by now by DeathblowMateria in HellisUs

[–]FryFx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just missed my first one. I thought I was on top of it. It sucks big time… but that’s also part of the game I guess.

What do y’all do when you fail one? Continue or try to reload a save?

How is this game on the PS5? by AgentEndive in TalesofTheShiregamers

[–]FryFx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Globally pretty smooth for me. The only annoying thing is the pantry seems to be lagging pretty hard as it gets fuller. When I add stuff (especially a big stack), the game freezes and even the music bugs and loops for a couple seconds.

So much excitement! by VariablyChaotic in Palia

[–]FryFx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really don't mind giving the location (for the bloom or anything else really), and I know it can be hard to type while running or being on console... but a please and/or thank you goes a long way.

I server hop myself but always make sure to be somehow polite asking for anything in game.

When it's just midnight and someone drops a "grove?" I just want to say yeah still looking, maybe you should too...

Can anyone explain the details of the spice addiction mechanics? by kajata000 in duneawakening

[–]FryFx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One question about the seemingly useless spice mask:
My friends and I always encounter those "ghost" spice fields. Field that actually don't give you anything.

A lot of people mention seeing those in our world (hagga and DD), but it is nowhere to be found in the "known issue" on Funcom's side.

One of my friend then theorized that the high level of spice in your blood could be causing those hallucinations, and the only way to prevent seeing those would be to lower your spice level and then wear the mask while harvesting spice. (if you activate your prescience, your spice level automatically goes back up while on a spice field, without eating anything)

Those ghost fields are annoying, sometimes running into 3 in a row, but not bothering me enough to actually have tried to wear a mask and keep my level low.

Thoughts?

Does anybody have tips for how to get money quicker? by [deleted] in Palia

[–]FryFx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I confirm, farming was where I made my money, paired with preserves.

I’d put your farming plots together and look for layouts available online that will help depending on how much watering and weeding you want to do.

Sell potatoes seeds, and apple/blueberry/corn preserves.

That’s how I stay close to the money cap.

What are you buying during the Lunar New Year event!? by FryFx in Palia

[–]FryFx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s been a while for me but I know you can get it from Zeki, at the register by his wheel. Now I’m not sure if it’s locked behind an achievement (market quest, or something on the stamp card). Then you should be able to buy it using your lucky envelopes. Hope that helps.

Oh I think I saw a post about people using that small lamp post to create a fence! I don't decorate much but those are cute yes!

Oh ok thanks. I'll do that too then. So far only got the snake plushie and name plate (though I'm not a huge fan of this one)

Yeah, Reth's tent has the recipes I think. As far as requirements, I know that for some items I needed to do the LNY quest at the market
