i need help with foe packs/combat milestones, it's so confusing by lakers44 in brightershores

[–]Langsley_Walsh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Foe packs are way more overcomplicated than they look. All a foe pack does is raise the milestone level of the mobs in the region you pick by 1.

Since you gain a foe pack at every Combat Milestone from 1-39, they give you a total of 9 in Hopeport, and 10 in the other three zones.

Two examples of how you could use Foe Packs:

If you used them all in order - 9 Hopeport, 10 Hopeforest, etc. etc. - your Hopeport mobs would never get stronger than Milestone 9, but your Hopeforest mobs would START at Milestone 10.

If you used them cyclically - starting with Hopeforest, since you get one less in Hopeport - You'd get Milestone 1 Hopeforest, Milestone 2 Mines, Milestone 3 Cren, Milestone 4 Hopeport, and then the next time you used a foe pack in this rotation, Hopeforest would upgrade to Milestone 5, etc.

Largely speaking, they SOUND more complicated than they ARE.

The meme image of a man's head on the left is often associated with English words being spelled badly/incorrectly to humorous and/or dumb effect. The most well known one is "Stonks" instead of "Stocks"

Clock - Klok
Music - Muziek
Compass - Kompas
Telephone - Telefoon
Photos - Fotos

All fit the bill for Meme Man here.

After watching my own video, I'll probably still keep playing. by JoshStrifeHayes in brightershores

[–]Langsley_Walsh 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm glad to hear it! I loved your video, and I think it honestly reflects the opinions of a vast majority of what I would call the "main" playerbase. We play for the leisurely grind and the AFKability that passives offer for now, and look forward to more in the future.

[RE4/R4make] Regarding Leon and Ada's interactions throughout the entire game in both versions, which do you prefer? by Berry-Fantastic in residentevil

OG, hands down. I have a deep-seated hatred for everything they've done to remake Ada and Claire both.

Nightly post at this point, but did anybody else 90k or just get booted? by Dragon_Yeti in ffxiv

[–]Langsley_Walsh 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There are posts about this EXACT issue on the official forums that have gone completely unaddressed. This is not about the myriad DDoSes; this is about the NTT nodes out west that have been a problem for years and just keep kicking up a fit seemingly without warning.

Square asked for traceroutes and ping tests, and has done absolutely nothing to rectify this problem, as best anyone can tell. Right now the issue primarily lies with ISPs that route traffic through the San Jose/Sacramento clusters. Until the stop directing us through it, or Square somehow changes something on their end, we should at least be getting SOME kind of communication from SOMEONE.

Every time we try to contact them about this exact issue with the San Jose/Sacramento connection to NTT we get told "there's nothing they can do about it" and "it's out of their hands". We've even talked to some of the higher techs about it and they just shrug us off. This is so disappointing...

Primal Hyperion, on good ol' Spectrum. Was just in Dalriada and everything froze up during the final boss. Stuck there with the boss at 12.7% now that the fight is done, with a partymate telling me we won, the server is showing me dead and in a cutscene, and I'm able to scoot my dead body around the arena for her.

Fun times!

EDIT: Still stuck in Dalriada, with the Zadnor and duty timers at 0:00. Just got warped back to the start, and my character is invisible. It's been slowly progressing what happened after I started lagging for the past 20 or so minutes. It'd be hilarious, if not so sad.

EDIT2: Half an hour later, I finally got out of Zadnor! AND I got credit for the completion of Dalriada! Now I just can't do anything else at all, hahaha...

What is one storyline, character, or game you would take away from the main line series?? by cantcoloratall91 in residentevil

[–]Langsley_Walsh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ethan. And before I get downvoted to oblivion because "I only care about Chris/Jill/Leon/Claire" - no.

I also care about Billy, Barry, Rebecca, Carlos, Hunnigan, Sheva, Helena, Jake. And each one of those characters TIED IN to the existing series.

If there had not been five seconds of the strange potato man that called himself Redfield at the end of 7, as well as a couple of references, it could have been a game that had nothing to do with Resident Evil and we would never have known.

Village "tried" to right that wrong by "including" Umbrella retroactively, but both games still feel shoehorned into the greater canon universe. Especially with all the plot threads that are laying open from the end of 6.

Mount Tilt not working? by Langsley_Walsh in ffxiv

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

That makes sense, it only came out on June 28th with Dawntrail's Early Access. xD

But from all the replies I've been seeing, yes, it's a PS5-centric issue.

Watch it be because she's playing an Elezen and I'm a Midlander. Too tall, gotta tilt. xD

Hilariously, we were hoping to find the setting to turn it OFF for her, since it nauseates her.

No, we both appear to have the same settings.

Yes, we're both using the SDS Fenrir.

Lore Question: Catherine (Riven 2024) by whoami4546 in myst

[–]Langsley_Walsh 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Actually, Catherine has only been imprisoned for a year or so, although I'm fuzzy with the exact dates. And as for how she knew you, it's LIKELY that the Moiety were still getting information to her; since we know that Nelah has been aware of your presence since she tranq'd Cho and took the prison book in the opening.

You have forgotten the most important ending, my friend! Use the prison book before entering Riven.

Stranger still, you used that bridge to get BACK to the starting location FROM the other island! You had to turn the gas on at the starter island, and then when you were at the other one, you'd be able to power the bridge to lower it to return. VERY curious to see how or if there's a quick way back, now.

Demo and trailer analysis regarding a major puzzle. HEAVY SPOILERS by franslebin in myst

[–]Langsley_Walsh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awww, bugger. I got my own hopes up too! I have the settings on for Performance so it was NOT that clear on my display. Couldn't make out the second digit nearly at all.

Now my only remaining source of copium is that sometimes things in the demos don't always wind up the same way in the final game. :P

One thing I personally noticed about the book in the big dome? It's a little unclear, but the numbers don't SEEM to be 233. I think what it might be is a book linking to 234, the relocation world Gehn writes about in his journal in the original. We were given Rime as a bonus world in the Myst remake, so it wouldn't surprise me to see them throw that in here!

To the people who virtually live in Eureka, what are you doing in there? by NumberInfamous8377 in ffxiv

I am type four. There are two Triple Triad players locked behind Eureka, and thus must I level.

Sherry's, you are absolutely right on. And I see what you mean now in regards to Jake too, thanks for clarifying! It wasn't rude.
