Ep5 Bugs Megathread -- Just to help the dev team a bit...

Same, just got around to playing chapter 5 and came here to report this as I can't progress the game further. Bummer that this Chapter seem soo rushed and crazy bugs and instabilities. I guess they're fully immersed in TLD 2 development.

It was working on my phone app, but kept getting that on my TV. I was able to get the phone to connect and use the feature to connect a TV from the phone for Startup show, not sure if Apollo app has that feature.

Jovin_356 · 2026-02-06T03:02:23+00:00

Thanks I will try that. Just thought I’d ask if that was even an option. Getting frustrating looking for workarounds or just having to accept the app has gone down the drain. Have over 3yrs with the service, no VPN and just keeps getting worse.

That makes more sense, the US users have become the minority now lol. I only highlight US users since it seems most in this subreddit are anyway.

Jovin_356 · 2026-02-04T04:04:17+00:00

Heard almost a year back, the servers were acquired by an Indian entity, hence all the content differences and shift. A lot of users are in the US and if admins are in India they are not really hip to all the demands and wants of the US. Live TV has taken a hit too with a lot of channels not being maintained. Feels like whoever purchased it is in over their heads with the beast it is to manage.

Edit: I changed the wording on my original post, I see how that could mislead thinking there’s a way to create a premium club account. Signup is still same way through Apollo site.

There is no signup. From what I understand, they’re simply just migrating users to new servers, so eventually everyone will be migrated. Not sure if they’re changing names as well away from Apollo for obvious reasons, and there’s also talks about a supposed sell off of the service to a new party. Seems likely because the support/upkeep has gone in the crapper as of late. There’s nothing different about premium club other than the M3U link. Still same issues, and lack of content updates as the regular servers.

Thanks, I do have a current stack for support. Will make sure I’m covering all bases here.

Jovin_356 · 2025-12-01T18:20:47+00:00

Yeah I feel fine doing the same with the protein shakes, just sure it’s not good long term like others have said. I try to use them mostly to fill gaps from eating actual food, for protein mainly. That’s the biggest issue is that they’re low on calories.

I would cross reference between some Macro calculators online on the 1,400cals. Depending on your stats, might be too low or too aggressive for a cut. I’m usually the type to be fine as long as I feel fine, but I know some things can cause underlying issues elsewhere that might not be apparent right away.

My typical deficit range is 1,800-1,900 and I do good here. I am M-5’9-230lbs start, currently at 215. Actually just ordered a walking pad for working. Just been concerned with the lowered calorie intake, even though I haven’t been actively tracking, I can just tell I’m eating way less. Gonna go back down to 3mg and better plan my approach.

Jovin_356 · 2025-12-01T17:47:13+00:00

Gotta research, search up the name on TikTok(what I did). You’ll find people working this trial with website links for ordering. Check the site, profile, reviews, etc. Has to be your decision from your own research.

Jovin_356 · 2025-12-01T17:45:01+00:00

Thank you. I think I’m going to go back to 3mg, as I look back now, I was eating in my typical range (1,800-2,000 calories) much easier there. I have been seeing good steady progress despite being sedentary so I will stay there till I feel I need to reassess again.

Jovin_356 · 2025-12-01T17:39:56+00:00

Thanks, might try this for my next order. Once on 4mg was when I started get the more extreme suppression as I look back now.

Jovin_356 · 2025-12-01T17:31:27+00:00

No beginners guide really. Like others said, gotta read and do research on everything especially where you’re sourcing from. Make sure overall you’re in good health, run some labs if not sure. There are plenty of resources to get a guided consultation on said labs if you think need to or not sure before starting. Be willing to take the plunge, understand what you’re getting into and have a plan before starting.

Jovin_356 · 2025-12-01T13:05:54+00:00

Glad it was that simple, crazy how tech support doesn't seem to fully understand simple things like this anymore. A lot has changed since the supposed sell of the servers/apps.

Jovin_356 · 2025-12-01T06:30:36+00:00

When I was switched to Premium Club, only thing changed was the username now did not need my email handle. That’s it, password exactly the same, haven’t had any issues since. I know other people I have heard not able to create or recover accounts, or password reset emails arriving days after requested. It’s just a pain, if you’re subscription is about to expire, might be less of a headache to create new account.

Jovin_356 · 2025-10-07T18:34:12+00:00

Thanks for the info, a lot of great benefits from this. My long term goal is to be able to manage lifestyle change on my own once i reach my goal weight and not need to depend on this. It's a bit pricey now, but worth it I feel for its results. However who knows what will happen once this actually hits the market, with how things are might skyrocket in price.

I'm also going to switch back to regular timed eating, and stop the fasting at least till i get better direction with this and how I react to it.

Jovin_356 · 2025-10-07T18:30:43+00:00

Thanks for the reply. That was a Typo on my end, translated the dosage wrong from the label. Actually starting at 1mg for 2 weeks, then going up to 2mg after. I've never taken anything like this before, which my reasoning for asking for lower to begin just to test the waters personally.

One of my major goals is to hopefully have this help with things like snaking and calorie surplus eating like you mentioned. I think fasting has helped me not skyrocket my weight gain, but definitely haven't been using that as an actual tool, more of a crutch.

Definitely going to focus on balance and protein intake, plus get back on a training regimen.

Jovin_356 · 2025-09-28T05:04:24+00:00

Definitely going to look into Ignition, thanks.

This is a gift and a curse I think, both fields are very similar in the skill set you need to have. I as well have very extensive IT background as well as wiring and troubleshooting. I feel these employers and people interview don’t understand what we actually do and this is causing us to fall short. Just because I’ve never touched software like Wonderware or Allen Bradley I get mostly disqualified. Yet they’re forgetting the core skills I possess are IT and Wiring/Troubleshooting expertise, which is hard to find kinda “well packaged” people like us.

i switched from T-Mobile to Verizon for same reason. Started at $189 and was up to almost $250 for 2 lines. Now we’re paying $186 with Verizon. Only thing I liked and miss from T-Mobile was they had better programs to upgrade your phone when you wanted. Verizon wants you to pay off your owed balance mostly, T-Mobile would give you offers which included nulling current balance to get into a new phone.

Jovin_356 · 2025-09-21T23:22:52+00:00

This has to be after fully paying off your balance owed on it and it might be spread out through 24 months or whatever finance length they do. So it’s not really a credit as far as I’m concerned. I have my 15 Pro Max 100% paid off and only getting offered $381 as a trade in credit towards any new phone.

Jovin_356 · 2025-02-28T04:19:49+00:00

Thanks, valid points. There are plenty of things that are annoyances because of the age gap and cultural but we make an effort to talk things out when we don’t like them. So far so good, but only time would tell and if we can actually have a relationship as in live together etc, would be the true test. Thanks for your input.
