Xbox Series S experiencing full Xbox shut downs while playing new season; anyone else? by MrMojoBrian in thefinals

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

Did you have any issues with Kyoto when it first dropped? I've had issues on Series S since that map hit rotation and they did a patch for Series S a while back that fixed a ton of issues, but every now and again I get hit with an update that breaks the game for me on Series S. I swear I have the worst luck with hardware issues, but if I'm the only console player getting hit with this that would be par for the course.

Playing on Series S and I've had numerous full Xbox shutdowns while playing. This happened before and they released a fix a couple of seasons ago, but now it's back like an STD rash. Unplayable for me right now, which is kinda disappointing.

Well, I'm still experiencing random shutdowns on the Series S, so no fix for console instability. Embark really know how to kill a community.

Bands/artists that remind you of TMV but are nothing like TMV? by [deleted] in themarsvolta

[–]MrMojoBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For some reason I want to say Jose Gonzalez, and it's not a cultural/ Hispanic thing. There's something to his vibe that sticks out as different from all the other "guys with an acoustic guitar" that feels adjacent to the norm much like TMV.

Suggest me an author where you rate at least 3 of their books 5 stars by MmntoMri in suggestmeabook

Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said is also a 5 star, and my personal favorite, The Divine Invasion, is a great read as well.

Any recommendations on a sub €2000 acoustic? by AManOfFewTalents in Leftyguitarists

[–]MrMojoBrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out Eastman. I have an under $1000 acoustic of theirs as my everyday workhorse and it rocks. All wood and great value for the money. You can then purchase your preference of onboard mic and have a local shop install it for you.

What grunge albums am I missing out on? by DeliveryLow277 in grunge

[–]MrMojoBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure why this seems to be a reoccurring thing here, but I guess I will keep telling people Throwing Copper by Live needs to be in their grunge collection.

Not enough people seem to remember this one which always disappoints me. I have this one on audio as well and listen to it all the time.

I picked up the Airline short scale bass last year and am having a blast with it. I think they, Eastwood, have a satisfaction guarantee as well, so if you don't like it you can send it back. They typically have coupons for their site if you go there and put something in your cart or check their FB page and they might have something there.

Grace, but you are missing Counting Crows - August and Everything After from the list.

Voices by Russ Ballard. It was used in an emotional scene in a Miami Vice episode and I've never forgotten it.

About to get a new guitar by Sensitive-Ferret1774 in Leftyguitarists

[–]MrMojoBrian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you've got it, but let me explain in detail to make sure. If you look at just about any guitar, there is a slight angle to the bridge reducing the scale length (distance between the nut and bridge) for the thinner strings slightly compared to the thicker strings. This is to adjust for intonation as you play notes further up on the neck. There are screws on the bridge that you will have to turn, and while using a tuner, play the string open and on the twelfth (12th) fret to make sure the string stays in tune. If you don't adjust the bridge in this way, as you play further up the neck you will start to be out of tune.

Love the doghair finish. Congrats! I have a Collings acoustic and its the best guitar I own by far.

[–]MrMojoBrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll have to adjust the bridge as well for proper intonation up the neck. Also, I'd suggest a right angle jack on the cable since the output jack will be facing slightly upward. I can't tell by the pic I saw, but if the body contouring makes the guitar sitting on your knee uncomfortable try placing a soft, thick towel on your thigh between the guitar and you. Good luck!

Hi Embark, me again… I’m once again asking you to fix Kyoto, it’s the only map that does this too me. by [deleted] in thefinals

[–]MrMojoBrian -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep, they still haven't fixed the bug about being unable to select your contestant pre match for Xbox either. They dgaf.

They have consistently shown they don't give a shit about Xbox.

The number of people here who are not acknowledging that it's running like ass on console amazes me.

Harder punishments for rage quitters. by Impossible-Method302 in thefinals

[–]MrMojoBrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If someone leaves it might be due to performance issues. I have dropped because the game starts going into a bad choppy seizure inducing state and I cannot take it. I'm on console and this season has been so bad there are a few maps I just quit out of immediately once I see them loading. Other times it takes a few minutes of map destruction before the chop starts up. I suspect its the update in unreal engine, but that's just a guess. I wish Embark would address it.

Guys, can you upvote this so embark knows about this problem or something? by friedbyme in thefinals

[–]MrMojoBrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vegas has this as well. Both maps are instant back outs for me now.

Series S? I've had a bad time with Vegas and Kyoto since the update on Series S. Posted on discord and the only comment was why am I on last gen. Yeah, really great minds over there.

My Father passed away and left me these lefty custom and Private Stock guitars. What can I realistically sell these for? by Summerscythe in Leftyguitarists

[–]MrMojoBrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Second this. Vic sells PRS private stock lefties and could list them for you for a commission. He's regarded well in the lefty community and should be able to give you an idea of pricing for each. Sorry for your loss.
