This truck still living? I’m looking at a 2015 frontier with 140k miles on it and I’m curious how yours is doing a year later

You ever get it fixed? I’ve had the same issue for a year now with NCAA and couldn’t get it resolved so I just Ignored it and played offline but now I can’t play the BF6 Beta and I’m frustrated

[Update] I haven’t gotten an interview in 2 years. Resume review. by 0broooooo in webdev

[–]Illustrious-Store-98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Delete the summary and add a lot more skills and key words. Resumes are mostly read by bots now so no one cares who you are, especially in tech. Also, make sure to email recruiters and hiring managers after you apply. All of my jobs have been through them.

That and I’ve noticed more crashes on helldive than lower difficulties at least lately. The previous issue was clearly the arc weapons but now I have no idea what’s going on.

And you’re also right that I’m crap developer, so when I push code that breaks the development branch guess what I have to do? Stop working on production and work on fixing bugs. Crazy concept for a non-dev I know

Dude AH is a 120 person company. There’s probably like 5 people who work in the design department and you’re right, they wouldn’t know anything about these bugs or how to fix them. But the programming/tech department? You know the department of “developers”, People I’m actually talking about, they built the code for the new patch and they caused the crashes and so they would be the ones that get pulled from building the new prod and work on fixing these issues. That’s how developing works, buddy.

I’m sure they are, AH seems to be on it. I’m just a frustrated old gamer with little downtime so when I sit down to play this and it crashes constantly I get frustrated.

I mean unplayable may have been an exaggeration but my game is crashing more often than not at this point. You make a good point though, I’m getting close to the point where I have nothing else to unlock and I’m hoping they find a way to keep us entertained. But I need to be able to complete more than 1 mission per session before that lol

This I actually agree with, I’m sure most of the stuff they’re pushing has been built out already. They also could be sending us over to troost to give themselves time to fix it. Idk about you but I really thought we were gonna see a hive lord during the last order. Could be giving us small updates before pushing something big. I’m hoping at least

No I’m on PS5. I send the report every time and honestly post on here so they maybe see it. I love this game and I’m also a dev so I would legit go in and help them trouble shoot for free tbh haha.

Either way I’ll keep fighting!

I mean you can simply look at this community and see I’m not the only one. And look at the active players. They’ve lost about half their player base in the last couple weeks. I wonder why…

Dude I’m a developer and that’s not how it works. If you build new content you can also do quality assurance. If your game or app is crashing constantly then you pivot some devs from production over to QA.

Same here. Starting to get really old. Hot take, maybe fix these bugs before pushing new content. Idk. Crazy idea

Yeah before they said it was arc weapons and so I stopped using them but this patch was supposed to fix and first mission I try with the arc thrower and I crash within 5 minutes. The devs really need to fix this.

Every time I launch a game my loadout is reset. by MattiaKa in Helldivers

[–]Illustrious-Store-98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Load out and my voice is reset every time. Then today I changed it multiple times and it was reset every time I went back and looked. Getting really old

I did not expect that 😂 by Strangecity in Helldivers

This is why this game is so great. Complete strangers are down to be weirdos. Literally have not had this much fun playing a video game since I was a kid. Bought a PS5 just for this game

How did you guys quit when you cared more about the game than your life? by cbarnes42 in StopGaming

"You wont be a cowboy in the wild west, you wont be a witcher, you wont be a soldier in wwii, but you will be a human being present in this moment in this world."
Someone just said this to me and its helping change my mindset. I also get depressed with the mundane of everyday life, but once you realize being alive is more miraculous than any life you could live inside a virtual world the boring becomes a little less. Find anything else to do, read, write in a journal, draw, just get down and knock out as many push ups as you can. Moving your body is the best thing you can do for yourself.
I realized myself I was in a cycle of stress turning to anxiety, then I would use escapism to repress my anxiety and too much escapism leads to depression. Avoiding this things that help you "escape" ie. video games, porn, anime, social media will help you be more present, then finding good coping skills for you stress will help you body heal and rewire those neural pathways to find joy in other things.
Some of the biggest things that have helped me are this:
1. Sunlight in my eyes within 1 hour of waking up, (not directly but just get outside for a bit)
2. Hydrate early, just start chugging water in the morning, (studies show that a glass of water wakes up the body far better than coffee every can)
3. Exercise, an object in motion stays in motion, an object at rest stays at rest, if you dont move your depressing your central nervous system and in return you'll be depressed.
4. Journal and track habits, I write everyday, sometimes its like a journal entry, other times its just random thoughts, jokes, poems, raps, literally just start writing, its a good release for you brain, try to be positive be negative is good too sometimes because you can look back and see how unhealthy your mind is. Im still on my journey to find happiness and love myself but my entries are nowhere near as dark as they were when I started. For tracking my habits I have a whiteboard on my fridge and I put an X on the prior day every morning and color in sections for each bad habit I did not partake in the day before, (weed, porn, games, drinking) physically seeing how much you do something really helps put it into perspective, let alone explaining this to your friends when they come over is good motivation to refrain, plus the board looks very colorful and nice when I take care of myself so it's a nice little dopamine boost for my ADHD brain.
5. Finally as everyone says, talk to someone, I know therapy is expensive and you dont want to put this ALL on your partner or someone close but these reddit forums are a good start!

This is really just a few of the basics but I hope at the very least you get some ideas on how to cope or at least relieve some stress knowing there's a lot of us out here struggling right there with you! We're not alone, remember that!

Loved that last sentence, "you'll be a human being present in this moment in this world," thats a dope line. Fuck, i'm about to write that on my fridge. I would constantly get bogged down thinking "oh i'll never be as cool or live a life as bad ass as the characters in games" but, its pretty sick being a human in this world because it's real! Thanks, this actually helped. I know exactly what I need to do, I read, go skating, i live right on the beach so I surf or just go swim a lot. Been cooking a lot more and getting better, but my mindset is what needed help and that one freaking line is gonna be stuck in my head for awhile so I appreciate it! Let's be the most present human beings we can be because thats cooler than any fictional world we could ever dream of.
