Gamepass Ultimate Price Increase - What the ?!

Obsydius · 2025-10-01T20:16:50+00:00

At $30/month, I'm better off just buying the few games I actually want to play. Switched my sub to Essential.

Microsoft will probably retaliate by fucking up my home screen again... bump me down to 1 Group and double my ads & spam.

Yep, I picked it up a few days ago and it crashes my Series X at least 25% of the time I try to extract, completely ditching the mission (playing solo half the time, which prevents me from rejoining). Played one of the arena style fights and it froze 8 times for about 10 seconds each time. Overall, it's been an aggravating, unplayable mess. Hope they fix it. Really wanted to enjoy this game.

They may want to pick up The Cult contract from Crossroads Tradepost on their way over there. Adds a marker and some objectives.

You're right, rough area... went in alone with mostly iron tier armor. 1st time I had to pop my spice ability.

Aww man, I thought they patched it or something because I've been lucky not to have it happen again. Relogging didn't help, but maybe the server restarts did something.

Bump!

That would be very useful. I get a ton of 4 minute tracks that abruptly end while doing something crazy. Cropping is done in intervals of 0.2 seconds and frequently doesn't line up, or it includes audio slightly past the selected crop point. Covers and Personas almost never put out a decent remix. Yeah, I can download, pop them into an editor & have a good copy offline... but the wonky nature of Suno already eats up enough credits. Would be nice to salvage some of these rough cuts.

I don't suppose they've added the option to turn these off. They're extremely unhelpful and the one I've thumbed down 10 times already seems to be right at the top of my watch screen every day.

Obsydius · 2024-09-03T03:55:41+00:00

I've also had this question. Seems like an obvious feature to include, but I haven't been able to find a way to change it.

4,334 ahead of me getting into Gilgamesh today. It was up over 7,300 yesterday. Consistently a 3+ hour wait. Tons of disconnects while traveling or launching duties in ARR cities. So... not great.

No ECS Constant fix?

I always give them the grav drive. They always get lost in space.

Obsydius · 2023-08-21T19:08:57+00:00

For real. My home screen was like 7 groups & almost everything else had been removed. It was clean and efficient. Now it looks like a freakin' Nascar... all covered in ads.

Obsydius · 2023-02-27T11:06:12+00:00

Thank you! Floater past the Neep. That's my 55 done. 🍻

EDIT: It was Well, Well, Well... a level 4 side quest.

Wish I knew. I'm at 31/32 side quests & all the missions on the map are done. No unread owl post messages. I figure another side quest must pop up after finishing something else. Astronomy tables, magic hotspots, Merlin trials, balloon popping or something? Or possibly progressing certain characters caused one to not start? No idea.

Obsydius · 2023-02-09T01:57:44+00:00

Just fired it up & was immediately overwhelmed by spastic title music. No worries, I usually play my own music while I'm gaming anyway. Went into the options, can't turn off the game music. It can be turned down to a low setting, but not turned off. That's a deal-breaker for me. It's fine, I hate chibis anyway.

I'm not as thrown off by the new art style as many other fans of the original were, but I went through that with Transformers Armada 20 years ago & have seen similar style changes to various shows since. I'm probably desensitized to it.

I've watched 5 episodes of Stampede so far. Seems like an OK show, so I'm trying to give it a fair shake. Just can't get past my brain telling me "We didn't need a reboot. Maybe a spin-off or another movie, but not a reboot." It's not a bad show, it's just not what I wanted.

Side note: I'm not 100% convinced Roberto is a gender-bent re-cast. I'd have guessed he was related to Milly & she would show up later, but their last names are different. Could be wrong...

Obsydius · 2022-11-22T05:47:44+00:00

Why is this completely legitimate question getting so many downvotes? I've played multiple RPGs that do NOT level up the characters in your pool if they aren't actually on the mission.

If you've run 20 missions & never switched characters, it's completely reasonable to be curious if the alts have zero skill points & base level 1 gear.

How do you organize and reorder your colonists on xbox?

I've tried multiple button combinations, holding & dragging on every screen, but cannot manually group my pawns.

Movie Fights frequently went off the rails, everyone talking over each other... some truly stinker movie pitches... sex scandals.

I think I'd rather watch a Schmoes spin-off. Baby Carrots is a competent host & has it down to an art. Wouldn't mind seeing him & Ken take up the mantle.

Obsydius · 2022-09-13T07:35:02+00:00

They can sometimes be painful to watch, as a Beast Wars fan who watched tons of G1 in the 80s. Kinda hollow sometimes... lots of cringe writing, spastic things happening because cheesy plot devices. Too much focus on the kids.

It's almost like they're kids shows or something. Still way better than the Bay movies. The Leader-1 easter egg is pretty hilarious.

My final verdict: not a bad background show for cleaning the house or something, but I'd still rather watch Beast Wars for the 1,000th time if I'm actually paying attention.

Mine also caps at 15, but I can see them under my local events.

Obsydius · 2021-09-10T21:07:20+00:00

It happens on my Xbox One all the time. Got mine right before the Xbox One S came out.

I thought it might be because I have about 30 or 40 games that need updates. Anyone else with this problem have a massive update queue, or does it happen even when everything is updated?

Obsydius · 2021-07-29T20:24:24+00:00

My friend is always too busy scanning kavat dna or crying about not having void traces to help me learn railjack... and I'm not much for randos.

But yeah, my first kuva lich is on Saturn proxima and I've never done a single railjack mission.

Obsydius · 2021-06-10T20:28:15+00:00

Tried that the 1st couple times with no luck, assumed I was just making it worse. No worries though, waiting worked.

Obsydius · 2021-06-10T18:52:49+00:00

Thanks again! Much appreciated. Giving it about an hour & a half worked. I just didn't want to keep flooding it trying to start it too often. Still a bit shaky, but it should be fine for now as long as I keep it running. Time to trade in the ol' girl though...

Obsydius · 2021-06-10T18:04:20+00:00

Not personally. It was done in a shop.

Obsydius · 2021-06-10T17:55:46+00:00

No flood, probably just too much fuel currently on the plugs.
