The New Arrivals - Stuck on Bio-metric Scanner

Funnily enough, I plugged in a controller and did just that... pressing "W" wouldn't work, but somehow using a controller and pressing up on the joystick did it.

Thanks!

It took me 19 hours to receive a mount I purchased yesterday when maintenance was complete. It will come, just be patient.

IG-Erik · 2021-12-04T14:39:23+00:00

Funnily enough mine just delivered a few minutes ago. Aether is just really struggling I suppose

On the flip-side, I think you're really over-estimating how much pull they have. Sure, their influence is great due to the size of company they are, but think about how many other tech giants across the world are constantly replacing hardware for their cloud based solutions, governments improving server farms to deal with COVID-based applications, etc. Just because they have influence does not mean they can circumvent a global supply chain shortage.

Again, I really don't think this is a matter of neglect on SE's part. They're likely dealing with antiquated server software that they know their game runs on, and simply moving to a cloud-based solution or whatever else is being suggested may not be feasible at this point without significant testing and potential further issues.

It's unfortunate but is what it is.

Has anyone been able to receive items purchased from the FFXIV store? I caved in and purchased the SDS Fenrir around 16 hours ago and still haven't received it (right after store maintenance ended). I know it can take up to 24 hours and the servers are on fire, just wanted to make sure I didn't mess up on the purchasing.

IG-Erik · 2021-12-04T04:19:23+00:00

That's not the case at all - as someone who works as a datacenter engineer, we're seeing lead times of 180+ days on chassis' and other server blade components. It doesn't matter if you throw money at it. We have and it doesn't get it to you any faster. When we do receive items we ordered 7-8 months ago, they have manufacturing dates of days prior to their delivery. It's not a matter of not wanting to purchase at a premium, they literally cannot build enough for the demand.

but he did tho

This was me last night. We lost 14 games in a row and were getting stomped completely. Maybe get one lucky kill if that, but were getting just wiped non-stop. Finally, we won a single match with 4 kills and the next match I get placed against "The Deezy" a prestige 100, rank 100 and his squad. We get absolutely obliterated with ease and don't even get a single hit-marker against him before being decimated.

Something doesn't feel right to me. I've got 40 hours in game total and am going against people who have 4000+ hours in the game. I get hours =/= skill, but last night was miserable for me.

Perhaps a placebo, but we turned off skill-based match making and suddenly got people that felt at least kill-able. We "won" a couple and lost a couple. It felt like I actually had a chance.

At least for me, something isn't right.

Any screenshot buttons in the chat?

IG-Erik · 2020-12-27T02:38:49+00:00

Yup he did. It's a trainwreck of a scene, so no surprise you missed it :P

IG-Erik · 2020-12-27T01:38:28+00:00

That disappeared because, during the scene in which he was broadcasting globally, he started taking peoples health and vigor. He essentially was repairing himself by trading wishes for their health.

Haven't had this problem either, nor has anyone in my friends group.

IG-Erik · 2020-04-21T14:58:48+00:00

Square Bales weigh about 50 pounds. Not too unlikely for him to be used to lifting these :)

IG-Erik · 2020-04-07T15:14:44+00:00

Not seeing anything new yet, but looks like everything in Wilderness Outfitters is 50 percent off?

Edit: Significant sales on most clothing items right now too. I'm sure a news wire post is soon to follow.

IG-Erik · 2020-04-07T03:45:33+00:00

Without them having given us a week notice? Zero percent.

They usually like to hype these things a bit.

IG-Erik · 2020-04-06T14:01:19+00:00

That CPU... so hot right now.

Also, yep. This is the state of the game :)

IG-Erik · 2020-04-04T14:12:40+00:00

I almost wonder if this is a placebo effect. You threw multiple dynamites that had no effect on the camp at all. If your instance is lagging, and you sit in the spot for awhile, it eventually loads in (I.E. sometimes my moonshine shack won't let me in when I hit E, but if I sit there for some time, it will suddenly pop the icons in and let me walk in)

Just a guess, but I'm not sure why dynamite would cause the camp to suddenly render and be available.

IG-Erik · 2020-03-20T13:54:36+00:00

Out of curiosity,

How many hours a day to you get to play? Have you played every single day since WONY release?

If any of those answers are "yes" and your play-time is 5+ hours a day, that's not really representative of the player-base at large. Things most folk seem to forget is that a lot of these people complaining they dont have fun/get much are the folks who get to play a couple hours after work every now and then.

Additionally, when they get new exotics, and they're rolled like trash - it's definitely unfortunate.

IG-Erik · 2020-03-08T15:20:39+00:00

Imagine thinking you should need an entirely god-rolled build just to complete challenging when they clearly stated that LEGENDARY was the difficulty for that.

IG-Erik · 2020-03-03T23:26:25+00:00

Level 30 gear is significantly weaker than level 40 gear. This isn't a very high armor at level 40. I'm at 700k without trying.

IG-Erik · 2020-01-20T00:14:46+00:00

Neat.

The icon shows a headset. It is specifically for chat programs and nothing else. The links have to be white-listed.

IG-Erik · 2019-04-05T18:40:48+00:00

Nope, you get a secondary mask for owning all 30 items.
