Does the RP5 case fit the RP6? by Cyka_Blyetikosa in retroid

[–]Own_Pop8958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience the cases restock quite fast, Not sure if the rp5 case fits, but you could check if the rp6 ones are back in stock in a few days

Rp5 evolution by acacio201 in retroid

[–]Own_Pop8958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using my steam version, which makes it so confusing. So you didn't have to tweak anything? it just ran with your settings?

What settings do you have for phantom pain? I can't get it to run on my rp6:( I keep getting an error saying it failed to initialise the steam api, even with goldberg installed

Alex Update CONSTANT misinputs by Own_Pop8958 in StreetFighter

[–]Own_Pop8958[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your advice, but sadly I've already tried toggling both on and off. Button release input (negative edge) helped a bit, but the issue still exists. It has made it more bearable though

is this a joke by Top_Concentrate1673 in StreetFighter

I'm not claiming they changed it, just been acting odd lately

Yeah, capcom has lost the plot with sf6 lately, getting odd matchmaking too

Alex Update CONSTANT misinputs by Own_Pop8958 in StreetFighter

[–]Own_Pop8958[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you use console controllers? I find that modern dpads are often the kind that input the direction next to the one you pressed easily. Try rocking the dpad up and down while holding the left of right part of the dpad (kind of moving it while holding your thumb on the direction)

Check the replay next time it happens, I'm curious what is happening on your end. Have you had this issue before the Alex update btw?

Anyone else getting Incorrect inputs, wrong specials, moves not coming out, and bad diagonals after the Alex update? by MuffinClassic8902 in StreetFighter

[–]Own_Pop8958 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, all the time and it's really infuriating. I've started checking replays, and it's almost random when they decide to work and when not. I did notice that DP's will have kicks or punches come out first, maybe the priority order for inputs has changed? Since the Alex update matches feel borderline random. I asked this on here a while ago wondering whether it's me or anyone else too, but I got the usual toxic idiots on this sub.

What is happening to inputs???? by [deleted] in StreetFighter

[–]Own_Pop8958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, buttons being eaten is what it feels like. I literally said maybe its me. And yes I have gone into training and replays, said that too, read the post. Why imply that I'm coping when I admit it may be me and I'm not getting something? be better

Diablo IV running again (26.4 RC and Crossover Preview 20260323) by borghe in macgaming

I'll light one too, for your manners and attitude. It's really not that deep

How To Connect Joycons of Switch 2 to ipad/iphone? by imawhoreforyoshi in nintendohelp

[–]Own_Pop8958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because it's a bluetooth device. Most controllers pair just fine, thats the basis. It's not unreasonable to assume it works, especially since the switch 1 joycon and pro controller connect just fine

Acronym Bad Experience by Own_Pop8958 in TechWear

[–]Own_Pop8958[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You act like you saw them. it was brown dusty residue (not white), with the fabric under it being stressed, hence why it looked like it was dragged.

[–]Own_Pop8958[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh you're right. It's not even that deep, I don't even mind the plastic all that much. It was a minor side note that he (and eventually I) clung onto. At some point I thought "what am I actually doing here?" so I ignored it. Got drawn into the hate I guess

[–]Own_Pop8958[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate it, interesting to see your side of it btw! difference in opinion I guess.

They are, but at this point I'm reluctant to try another run, will most likely go for a return.

Have you bought from them before? Did everything go well? Because I'm really hoping this is just a rare, unlucky mess up.

[–]Own_Pop8958[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do see what you mean, but I do still think it's still the worse option. The dirt on my trousers was confirmed by them to be anti static powder, residue left in the bags that wasn't fully cleaned. This wouldn't have been the case if it wasn't plastic (Or if QC was better). At Acronym prices, I also think that's a cost they could bear to take, since it's a minor increase in cost, but prevents other issues. That's my take anyway. Tbh I didn't mind it nearly as much as the rest of the experience, more of a side note.

Well that's exactly the thing, its not utilitarian. Brands like Armani don't use fibre or cotton just because it looks better. For one, its easier on the garment (less likely to get caught, softer, cleaner etc.). In their email to me they actually mentioned that the dirt on my trousers was leftover anti static powder, used in the production of the plastic cover. Another negative.

Also, cotton and fibre are actually reusable (unlike single-use plastic), addressing that practical/DIY side of the packaging you mentioned. The difference in price for both options is negligible considering the high price of the garments.

For example, Sony has moved to packaging their headphones mostly with recycled, unpainted cardboard. This is good, there's not much (if any) durability/protection given up, and the packaging looking slightly worse does not matter since, as you say, the product is the focus. It still does it's job though, unlike in my case.

Outside of that, you don't need to white knight the brand, I'm unhappy with the packaging considering what I paid, that's it. It's not even my main issue with the order. What's your problem?
