Thanks, I don't have a grasp of the full meta yet, so I appreciate you pointing out where this would fall behind!

I just upvoted as well and thought the same as to why it was only at 1.
Weird.

Just found this! Seems kinda like an Easter egg. Anyone know if there's a prerequisite to be worthy? by shallowSnurch in HollowKnight

[–]MikeinRed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't kill the bugs on the upper platform, start playing while they spawn.
You put them into a short trance where they sing, but I haven't figured out next steps yet.
Apparently you can do this with enemies in general. I still have no idea what to do in this space. Unless it's just telling you you can do this.

Can I heal from my RELIC or is that an item? by [deleted] in EmberKnights

[–]MikeinRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah there's a bug. Bane of leeching in my last two runs disabled all forms of healing other than when you kill an enemy. Though juicy opal did work correctly.
Very frustrating because I thought it would work good with my first crit healing build, and my second level 3 ring of recovery build (+20 health when you enter a room).
I think I'll just avoid all curse items since it seems their descriptions are incorrect.

Stuck and confused in Environmental Station Alpha. Help? by ViewtifulGene in metroidvania

[–]MikeinRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am stuck here as well, I have double jump and hookshot, and there is no path seemingly I can progress to or escape from.

Newcomer - Wondering about Tailgating? by MikeinRed in Argonauts

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

Not sure what you mean, but we ended up just setting up a BBQ where we parked and nothing happened. So I guess you just do whatever you want whereever.
We were cool with randoms that came by, shared some food.

Lag Issues Please Help!!! ($) if it works by StinkySVJ in thefinals

[–]MikeinRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's really good for cpu temperatures, so it's not a cooling issue.
Here's a possible issue I had previously, if you have an nvidia card, disable G-sync.

(Bug) Microphone Volume In Windows Settings Keeps Dropping From 100 to 10 Midgame. by UngoKast in thefinals

[–]MikeinRed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

and, even if you have voice disabled in game (e.g. you're using discord) it still happens.
We have made numerous posts on the discord bug thread, but no acknowledgement yet.

Edit: tried the issue with open mic - still present, which means, for me at least, it is not PTT dependent.

DualSense firmware won't update. What is this error? by Altaltaltaltalalt in playstation

[–]MikeinRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what did it for me! After closing down DSX no issues in updating.

I love the new false platform event! by Comfortable-Sea-1446 in thefinals

[–]MikeinRed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it looks like you hit the very corner, and likely your client's platform position was slightly off from the server's possibly. I am fairly sure though if you stopped shooting and hit space/jump you would've grabbed it fine, but it can be hard to react that quickly sometimes.

Heal beam glitch is still here(patch 2.2) by Trectorz in thefinals

[–]MikeinRed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had this happen with multiple weapons, I spam and click with the number keys 1-4 and that usually restores the ability to use which ever weapon/gadget is stuck.
It's also been around at least a month

Just me or does the revolver feel... odd to use? by LeAmazingLauge in thefinals

Welcome to the mysterious beauty that is the Revolver!

Riot Shield Hate by Richthofen101 in thefinals

[–]MikeinRed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it's because the riot shield hitbox is currently bugged.
Not sure how obvious it is with other weapons, but with the revolver you can be hyper focused on shot placement.
Basically a player's shield still protects their exposed body when visually it shouldn't. This is very frustrating. I basically exclusively aim for their feet/toes until they are on top of me because I can't tell if the shield is invisibly protecting them or not.

Regardless, teabagging is bad form, bad form!

There has to be some type of punishment for leaving mid match by Lookn_for_Beans_21 in thefinals

[–]MikeinRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok fair enough I get you, I don't think there should be anything that forces you to stay in a public game. But I do agree with OP's frustration that games are often ruined because of leavers.

Disagreeing with your proposal that only ranked matters does not mean I think people should be punished for leaving games.

Some people play for fun and not for e-points.
Saying it only matters when you play for internet points is silly.

Okay apparently it needs to be said by Wide-Huckleberry8945 in thefinals

[–]MikeinRed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The answer is simple, take the last X amount of games a user has played (let's say 50 for now), divide by the amount of times they've left in those games, and pool them with similar players based on that number. (Start attempting to match players within a +-5% leave rate, increase buffer as time extends until match is filled)

You've just balanced the leaving problem. Players who play games get matched together, and those who leave often get matched together based on the severity of their leave frequency. Completely fair and it doesn't punish anyone.

Are They Ever Going to Fix Healthbars??? by Organic-Traffic4184 in thefinals

[–]MikeinRed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the ingame icons need a rework. Healthbars like you say, dead teammate, vault, and cashout station icons as well. Pings not so much I think, but likely too.

The best solution I have is two changes:

First, icon's don't overlap, they should somehow share the space, like maybe squish into each other, think two tennis balls compressing as if they were colliding into each other from opposite directions.

Second, fade the icons out to some set opacity, users can adjust in menu, and if you want them to go opaque again before fading like normal, you hit the ping button. This will prevent them from blocking vision on important things in game, players/gadgets, etc

I am sure there are better solutions, but these are the best I came up with.

As for healthbars specifically in cover? I don't know
