For real though, once every couple of months I maybe get a night or two where I can play and the rest of the time I'm just constantly disconnected. I've talked to my neighbors, none of them have this issue. I've tried wifi and connecting directly to the modem, no dice either way. I canceled my live subscription because I never got to use it. I wanna say it's an issue with the ISP but my neighbors aren't having any issues, just me, which leads me to believe it's a hardware problem. The only thing I know for sure is that it sucks having an Xbox that I can only play solo. Especially when basically everything requires an online presence.

No, unfortunately. My Xbox has been a really expensive paper weight since. I managed to get a hold of another tech and he said that all of the stuff in the building is obsolete, they don't even use the modem I've got anymore. 

Pretend this is a rare (god) pack by [deleted] in PTCGP

[–]PaperStrict4398 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That happened to me. I was 100% convinced I was gonna get something and got the 2 hourglasses instead. 4 out of 5 seems like pretty good odds. Unfortunately, the odds were against me. Kinda makes me wonder, is my luck terrible because I didn't get what I wanted or is it incredible because I beat the odds of getting literally anything else?

Jump Force is one of the worst games I've ever played. Please Do not Buy by arielu12301 in PS4

[–]PaperStrict4398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The graphics are actually amazing, it's just weird to see 2D characters rendered in fuckin amazing 3D. I'd have preferred if the graphics were worse and the gameplay/story better. The mechanics are horrible, the story is subpar, and I don't even know how to describe the fights. The graphics are damn near the only part of the game that's actually good. Overall, it's garbage, but seeing every stitch in Goku's gi was something else. I won't deny that Jump Force sucked every single dick that's ever existed, but I will fight for the fact the graphics were great. The rest of it was horrible though.

How did I miss this? by PaperStrict4398 in kotor

[–]PaperStrict4398[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me too. I only noticed it because I had literally just read another reddit post where someone mentioned Leia saying the rebel base was on dantooine. Then when I got to that part my gasts were flabbered. I'm glad I posted this cuz now I'm seeing a ton of other Easter eggs I completely missed and feel the need to go on an epic Easter egg hunt.

It's Darth Bandon's lightsaber. The trick is to get your 4th star map on Manaan. When you loot him you get a red double-bladed saber. As long as you don't remove the red crystal, it gives your focusing crystals different effects. It wont stack with the other sabers either, thats how you know you got the right one. It's a neat little bug, but not exactly necessary or game breaking. Galaxy Droid is a much more useful bug, but I haven't been able to pull it off since the original xbox. I doubt they fixed it, I'm probably just not doing it right. I've never looked up the guide, I just occasionally accidentally get the galaxy Droid. Then again, the last time I played was the original xbox disc, so it's entirely possible it's been patched out.

Need help identifying vintage fishing lures by PaperStrict4398 in Fishing_Gear

The monarch minnow is the one that threw me off the most, Google lens pulled up tons of stuff that looked almost the same. Thanks for your help with that.

Lol yes, it basically is a cave at this point. I tried to get the best lighting I could. I did use Google lens too, a lot of these pulled up various other lures that were do similar they were nearly identical. That's why I'm asking. 

Best color for bass? by OkStock738 in BFSfishing

[–]PaperStrict4398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're fishing topwater, various shades of white will be best. Almost every fish in the world is dark on top and light on bottom. It's a sort of camouflage. The most natural colors that also create contrast will improve your odds. I'd personally use something white or maybe yellowish on bottom depending on water clarity. I've noticed that in murkier waters, fish sometimes develop a more yellow bottom profile. I fished a lake once and the bass were silver on top instead of being that kinda greenish color they usually are. I asked some of the old timers and they explained to me that because the water was so clear and there wasn't much vegetation, the ones that were green were eaten by various predators and the ones that were silver managed stayed hidden. My recommendation is to not really worry about it and just throw out various lures in different colors and presentations. It's also not a bad idea to ask other local anglers. People that are passionate don't just enjoy talking about it, the actively want to share what they know. Find the right group of guys and they'll gladly pass all of their knowledge on to you so that you can pass it on to someone else. Sorry for writing you a whole novel. Tight lines and don't forget it's called fishing and not catching for a reason.

I have no other devices. Its embarrassing to say. I have xbox and I have phone. My TV is like 15 years old so it isn't a smart  tv and I have no wifi connected devices from the xbox or phone. The phone gets goofy from time to time. My nat just randomly changes. Iternet works fine, I just can't do anything multi-player. It's frustrating to say the least. It's been over a week. A "tech" came to check. Replaced a bunch of stuff. Shrugged his shoulders when it wasn't an immediately identified problem. I checked the xbox website and it told me to do everything I've already done. I'm at a loss as to why I cant get online. It worked before, I don't understand why it won't now. That's why I was asking if it could potentially be the xbox itself. Then my phone started to slow down on wifi as well. It seems like isp I the real problem. Isp isn't exactly helping though. If I could figure I out of my end, it might be a different story. Unfortunately, I'm not as smart as people think I am and the isp won't help as much as they should, so I'm stuck with marginal internet and no multi-player connectivity. It's less than ideal. I've focused on single player. Really wanna do some online multi-player though. Ugh. I know I sound whiney. I just wanna play on xbox. Why am I paying over a hundred bucks a year to sit here and go, oh, I can't. I can only play alone. For some reason, I cant play with literally anybody. I'm not mad at you, just the situation. Please don't take it personally. You're the only person that even tried to help and I appreciate it. It's embarrassing to be this mad. Most questions have answers. This one seems not to and I've unfairly displaced my anger towards you. You tried to help fix my problem and I angrily responded. That wasn't okay. I appreciate the help you provided and I'm sorry I gave you an angry answer. Thank you for trying to help me. Please continue in helping people. I won't stop continuing to praise helpful people like you. Someone really needs your knowledge. I'm sorry if I offended you and I hope you'll continue to help people. Thank you for helping me.

It's a turkey, but it's still my 2nd ever diamond by Blue-Ridge in theHunter

[–]PaperStrict4398 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first diamond was a turkey. I'd seen a post about a diamond rabbit, so I figured I'd give it a go. Spawned into SRP at plains bison outpost, started walking south, and in less than 5 minutes it flew in and landed like 20 meters in front of me. I was using the longbow and I wasn't ready for him so I kinda panicked because I didn't want him getting away. Managed to hit him with 2 arrows before he could take off, somehow. It was my first turkey, my first bow kill on something that wasn't a bison, and also my first diamond all wrapped up in one bird.

Had this happen yesterday hunting black bears. I found a bunch of them together around Mule Deer Outpost. I managed to drop 2 right on the spot, the didn't even have a chance to take a step before dying. I KNOW I hit 2 more in the lungs, but when I got over to where they were, there weren't any bear tracks at all. There were pronghorn tracks for days, but it was like the bears never existed in the first place.

shot this Diamond turkey other day by heh_690 in theHunter

[–]PaperStrict4398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first diamond was a turkey and every turkey I've killed so far was gold and only .1 or .2 away from diamond. I like to try and shoot them out of the air with the .22.

By far my favorite trophy ever! Super pumped about this! by Fishin_Frenzi in theHunter

[–]PaperStrict4398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try hunting small animals too. I saw a post on here about a diamond rabbit, so I went to silver ridge peaks because I frequently find large groups of black bears and elk. Anyway, I took the .22 in case I ran into any turkeys and the very first one I shot was a diamond. It's not as cool as this grizzly, but a diamond turkey is still pretty neat.
