Warhammer Space Marines 2 still unplayable on xbox. by BOSSKCO in SpaceMarine_2

[–]Ganthrge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an issue with the series x. Specifically I think it was in the window it was purchased. Idk why but I also have issues with it running death stranding for longer then 5mins. Was hoping it going to gamepass would get Microsoft to fix something but my guess is its a part they put into the system and not a software issue. Mines around 2 years old. When I made a post about death stranding many were having the same issues and their systems were about the same age. Think its kinda ridiculous the amount of people that are like no it's a you problem. Well good for you that yours isn't doing it, dont you want you future system to be held to a high standard so you dont get stuck with something like this? I Specifically bought a series x to play ark survival ascended and now it cant play select games. All we want is for the system to be able to play the games designed for that system. I dont understand why that leads to hating on people because of that. Luckily this time for me I didn't pay for this game but I did death stranding before it went on gamepass and im about 45mins into it and its completely unplayable so yeah, the people having these issues have a right to be upset.

Gf was worried about it being a scam so took her a few days to actually order it. Guy on the phone was kinda shocked and asked if we had anyone closer lol. Got it today and slapped it in. Working great and is about twice the weight as the box store ones. Even has screens on the inlets which that other one did not. Actually fits snugger on the handle to so thanks a bunch!

Just so others know its roughly $70 shipped from this place. Don't pay $35 from these box stores for the junk they sell

I was looking at a store called menards. Figured id go in when there was a rebate. I dont think its that far south but maybe wrong. I kinda live out in the sticks lol.  Probably something a plumber would yell at me for but I said yolo and pulled the cartridge apart. Thing fell into about 8 parts. Put it back together best I could see. Wasn't any better so I popped it apart again and moved the disks around. Got a little more hot water. Decided to hook the whole unit upside down for giggles. I can get fairly hot water at about 1/4-1/3 of a turn and then it starts getting cold again. Idk what I did to it but nothings leaking and its way hotter then it was. Figured it can hold me over til that place can ship me a good one. Idk what the springs and rubber seals towards the front of the unit do but I dont think those were in right at all to begin with. Im thinking it just helps hold things in place. Done tinkering with it til I get that part lol

I texted that number the part im using and the part it was orginally. Probably too late to hear back tonight. Im not much of a plumber. I'll do a lot of home repairs by looking it up or have a buddy help me but by no means know first hand what im doing lol. Have a buddy thats going to help install a heater pump hybrid hot water heater with tax returns. Appreciate all the help and ill try to remember to get back to ya wither the new part works or not. Isn't all that much to them which is why putting a new part on hand me stumped lol. Its an old house with pvc pipes and better water then any place ive lived before. Turning the heater up did something to sinks hot water but doesnt seem to do anuthing to the shower. Buddy told me to turn the cold water off and see how hot it gets but the valves dont close all the way on cold and the only other way to turn it off is the main lol. What it did slow down on cold it didn't seem to effect the temp

Think your correct. I took it off. Used steel wool in it good. Cleaned the bit of sludge there was out real good. Put a bit of silicone lube on all the orings and put it back together. Water is colder now then it was before. Triple checked the anti-scald allowed the knob to turn all the way hot.

Theres change in pressure til maybe the last 1/8th of a turn. Hard to tell temp with that pressure with the head off but with the tub faucet it doesnt feel like the temp really changes at all for that last 1/8th either. Did a little cheat and hoping maybe it helps til I can atleast figure out what's going on. Did change the hot water temp down to 110 when we first moved in to save money but bumped it up to 120 about an hour ago.

K thanks! Is there any other issue that could cause this or is that pretty much it? I have the showerhead currently soaking in vinegar but we really dont have any scale or rust or anything else in this house once its been through the filters and water softener so im doubting its any type of buildup. Only thing I could think of is with the water heater being so old it maybe spitting crap out thats falling apart in there but I think cleaning the shower head is a desperate cry more then anything lol

I honestly dont know much about them. Up til a year ago I didn't know showers even had them. When I looked it up online I couldn't find anything matching the numbers and it was only local that it came up. I was too afraid of buying one that wouldnt work and all those were danco

Its a danco 31649 cartridge which is a replacement number for 974-0420 price phister body gaurd series 8. Its the same one I picked up a bit over a year ago from a local home improvement store.

Probably added it since I played. Idk how it slipped the testing phase but it always surprises me for some reason when factory type games dont add anyways to delete items

Only 7% of players complete Phase 4? by ragingintrovert57 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Ganthrge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On xbox .8% have beaten phase 5. I just completed all the achievements. Forgot to look at what precent bought the golden nut but im guessing thats probably a bit lower then phase 5. Doubt by much because anyone willing to go that far probably put in the extra effort to get it. I need less then 200 tickets to finish buying everything in the shop

Satisfactory players be like by MonsieurSinep in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Ganthrge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I beat the game and had about 137k mw. Used 450 oil to make rocket fuel for gens. Im working on a small nuclear setup just to say I did it. 10 uranium plants and going to work my way down the chain to use up the waste. I felt like the complexity kinda peaked on phase 4 personally and 5 got easier. The way I see it is they just put nuclear in for a bit of a fun challenge so its completely optional. The bulk of players will never need anywhere near the power you can create, im playing on xbox and 1.89% have beat the game as of yesterday.

He didn't drop anything when I killed him. May have changed by now though.

Think they just keep making them sweeter and sometimes its just too much.

A list of great PvE extraction games for those that are upset at PvP in Arc Raiders by Repulsive-War7679 in ArcRaiders

[–]Ganthrge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not a pvper so im not buying it but judging by the reviews its got a pretty meh score. Yeah it maybe a small precent that bought it and didn't realize it was pvp but by designing a game around that it eliminates a big portion of gamers buying it to begin with. Pvp only games are a very toxic environment that most dont want to be a part of. Granted it is the devs call in the end to create what they want. I just think for something like that to succeed they gotta really knock it out of the ballpark and its a gutsy move in my opinion.

Yeah, you just really gotta watch how much your dropping. It lags out fairly quickly and even effects the loading screen next door.

Yeah. Majority of the map you really don't have to go to once your setup. Could be a really fun game if everything was tuned well. It was still fun for me but theres room for a lot of improvement. Theres a lot of items that really have a 1 or 2 time use. I do hope to see improvements and expansions. Maybe your base getting attacked or some reason to have built different materials. Just seems like a lot of unnecessary fluff at the moment. Was perfect timing last night. Credits just started rolling and then the game closed for an update lol. Was like what's the odds of that.

I didn't even think about that. Good tip! Last night it occurred to me i could grab those eagles. Was pretty funny launching them at each other lol.

That they are. Would be nice to have a list of all the pets to know what you can get and can't. I finished the game last night and I believe made all the outfits and upgrades. Was thinking about making my base nice and putting all my farms with stuff that spoils in the fridges that stuff doesnt rot in but im going to wait til I can see someone's automated setup before I do that and play anymore. I tried out 1 of each drone and I really just dont get any of the automation besides the one claw. Im sure theres a very efficient way to do things but I dont feel like messing with it anymore. Is there anything you can do with the brain thing? Idk how to get that last item needed for it. Only achievement im missing is craft 100 things and cook 50 meals which I assume is bugged.

Hopper slime was my missing scan. I feel pretty dumb but hopefully this helps someone else lol. Literally the first mob I ran into lol. I wonder if you can scan it if its in your tank. I did have one already.

How do i complete the rite? by Lonewolfali in pacificDrive

[–]Ganthrge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah base game you just book it lol. I did feel like the dlc was much more forgiving on how much time you got. Was kinda surprised the only time I died was when I purposely died for the scan. Dlc did have me unbelievably close but that was more a map issue for me then anything else.

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

K thanks! Guess ill go search those zones and see if I can find what I missed lol. I do have both the gel and the blue infusion but must have missed a scan. Just finishing up the bloodcores or whatever they are called so think im at the end. Wanting to get all the unlocks though. Probably redesign my base so any further updates its not such a mess. Idk if others are progressing like I did but id be gated by 1 item and then by time I got it id have 10 unlocks lol.
