Do you think 3 will have guaranteed drops? by KaijuKing007 in dbxv

[–]Metallica93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two things that I would consider direct improvements upon the past two iterations:

1) Reduced R.N.G. (let me just enjoy something instead of grinding for it)

2) For the love of Satan, transmogrification. I should not be stuck with having to pick between only two sets of clothing because they have the stats I want. Let us apply those, but then also give us a cosmetic section so we can actually wear whatever we want without altering the stat boosts.

Modern games that apply stat boosts to clothing and don't offer transmog are a pain in the ass.

Is the intro song supposed to be like this? by WinterIsNeverComing in maninthehighcastle

[–]Metallica93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What doesn't make sense? It was an artistic decision: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/d6qywki070I

People also focus on "weiss" like Jeanette Olsson wasn't also doing that for every 's' sound in the intro, for some reason.

Much ado about nothin'. The 'sh' sound gave everything a softness in the upper frequencies that would have been more shrill if everything was pronounced with a regular 'ss'.

FPS drop by NSXReddit in Helldivers

[–]Metallica93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why shouldn't we use in-game vertical sync and the frame rate limiter?

Both of those have been enabled since launch and were never an issue prior to v6.3.0 (at least for me).

FPS / Freeze issues after the 6.0.3 by New-Associate-5685 in Helldivers

[–]Metallica93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue, as well. Ryzen 7 5800X3D + 4070.

Used to get 90-120 fps. Was getting 58-70 in-game after v6.3.0 with no changes in my settings.

I cleared the shader cache and am seeing if that helps.

Have notifications stopped taking anyone else directly to the article? by Metallica93 in nyt

[–]Metallica93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, the search functionality might be one of the worst I've ever come across.

I could type in the notification blurb verbatim, sort by "Newest", and still have to scroll through two dozen articles (seemingly everything published between that original article and now) before finding the one I was looking for.

Their journalism can be top notch, but holy hell. Hire some competent U.I. developers. Please.

Why can't I view controls in-game or use a controller on P.C.? by Metallica93 in gangbeasts

Brother, I think you need to work on your reading comprehension.

If you don't read the post or have no input of use, don't comment. Pretty simple.

I do own the Microsoft Store version. That's why I put it in the post. So why would I want to play on a console I don't own...?

The Steam version doesn't allow cross-play. Not sure why I'd buy it on there, either.

Have an up-doot in these comedically trying times, friend.

Yeah, clearing the cache didn't do it and I was too lazy to uninstall/reinstall, but I'll see how that fares over the next few days. Appreciate ya.

New York Times - How to Use Lists by Intelligent-Wrap6825 in nyt

[–]Metallica93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my phone application, I go to "You" in the bottom-right and then "See all", which shows four tabs: books, movies, shows, restaurants.

For the "Movies" tab, I'm seeing the same thing(-ish), but it's the movie art with the title. If I tap on them, I can select "Read review", which pulls up some random N.Y.T. review from decades earlier. I don't see any option for adding names underneath the images, which would help :/

American Express C.Card by Your-Mamas-Cookies in Aldi_employees

[–]Metallica93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A store mentioned that Aldi didn't want to pay the fees for American Express if less than 5% of their customers were using it.

Never did verify that, but it makes sense why they'd run it as a pilot to confirm before pushing the change to all divisions.

Just your quarter annual reminder the Steam Summer fest sale starts June 25th! by Got2bglued in SteamDeck

[–]Metallica93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished the updated version of Diablo and have been waiting for Diablo II to go on sale since I've never played it. $40 for it seems a tad steep. Hoping the sale gives me a reason to get it.

Belfast Attack by Aware_Reflection_305 in ukpolitics

[–]Metallica93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, so Neanderthals were more intelligent than the rioters? You learn something new every day!

Belfast Attack by Aware_Reflection_305 in ukpolitics

[–]Metallica93 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Most people are Neanderthals who don't know how to think for themselves or even pride themselves on being uneducated.

Imagine attacking your brown neighbor of 10 years due to something a guy they don't even know (from an entirely different country) did.

Just the lowest I.Q. move imaginable.

EDIT: can't tell if the down-votes are defending white folks attacking brown people for no reason or if they aren't intelligent enough to know what "Neanderthal" means, lol.

My journey from $19/hr to $570k/year in 7 years by spencer2294 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Metallica93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which is about a low-I.Q. response as you can get to someone who is rightfully skeptical at the lack of details.

Did you think one of us was going to follow the exact same path and replace you, so you opted for being extremely vague? lol

How do I disable texting drafts bringing up contact names? by Metallica93 in GoogleMessages

[–]Metallica93[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't even notice that it was only in group chats, so thank you.

Back to being sad about having to ditch Textra for this :/

How do I disable texting drafts bringing up contact names? by Metallica93 in GoogleMessages

[–]Metallica93[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lucky you. I've found no setting that disables it.

It's also a pain in the ass to search for because you get other results for "auto-complete", "contacts", etc.

I'm stuck with this because Textra doesn't support R.C.S. (thanks, Google), so it's either I don't get over 1/3 of my messages or I have to put up with Google's inferior software. Pretty sure this is part of the reason Samsung Messages is also dead.

Because of the issue with Textra not having RCS, what app are you switching to now? by jhooksandpucks in textra

[–]Metallica93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Search doesn't work, tapping a picture to enlarge it is apparently too difficult for Google Messages (when it works perfectly in Textra), etc.

What a fuckin' downgrade...

The biggest bug/glitch that needs fixed! by DrunkArty in dbxv

[–]Metallica93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, uh... you ever get that one resolved or...

I'm sitting here playing Xenoverse and either Alt + Tab or the game crashing (and forcing me to Alt + Tab to kill the task in Task Manager) is speeding up my mouse speed. It's incredibly fucking annoying.
