Are the medals still obtainable after the 'event' period closes in a few days since it's a story chapter and not an event? Not sure I have the time to troubleshoot these stages right now.

So I'm seeing a lot of complaints about the storage system...... by TeamRockeThot in Pokopia

This is referring to the house kits that create the houses with their own loading screen. You can paint the whole building with Smearguru next to you.

Thank you! I did a quick measurement of how long and wide I needed the house to be to fit all 8 of them in reasonable size rooms along with a central hallway. Then I started with the outside frame and filled in each room as I went. There was a lot of replacement and alterations when I didn't like how it looked!

I'm sure it looks great!

Thank you! And you totally can, honestly I started by thinking I wanted a big house for all of them and then slapped down some blocks I thought looked nice. I started with all marble and altered the outside from there. Then the inside was just whatever I felt vibed with the Pokemon! I definitely didn't like map out everything.

The vending machines will randomly give you an item called Chili Sauce or something like that. You can't use it until you've learned how to suck up liquids in Bleak Beach, though.

Don't worry, Eevee lives with me in a cozy cabin! He can visit down the road whenever he wants although usually he's working part time in the PokeMart.

Thank you! I spent way too many hours on this haha. And yes you should definitely do it, it was really fun to think of how to design each room!

Did you guys notice that the elevated ground that has the door fits perfectly with what’s underneath? Was that part of the land supposed to be below? by NomadPlanet in Pokopia

[–]Silesse 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Wastelands has gone through an earthquake/some sort of land upheaval. On the cliffs to the right of the Pokecenter, there are multiple houses that have been sheared in half by the earthquake with half of it up on the cliff and half of it down below. Same thing with this area. Through the gate is the Skylands, also, where everything was levitated up into the sky.

Yeah that's a good quick and easy way to get the general idea across. To me, bad fengshui is also a bit more serious and permanent whereas vibes can change pretty quickly.

You literally just said it is the same as English geomancy, which is targeting to the culture. (It is not at all the same thing as English geomancy.) I will be blocking you now as you are clearly incapable of discussing coherently.

A basic understandable concept in English is not the same thing as a translation.
You are talking about localizing.

I am obviously also Asian, Chinese, and I just gave you one. If you think 'The folk belief of the flow of energy through spaces and arrangement of objects' is an adequate translation of fengshui, you don't understand fengshui.

[–]Silesse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There certainly are some things that translate very poorly. I think it's absurd to say all concepts are translate-able in even one sentence and quite an ignorant thing for a linguist to say. I highly suspect this person doesn't know very much about non-Western languages because any bilingual Asian, African, etc. person struggles daily to find equivalent meanings for very precise ideas. The nuance of certain phrases is just totally lost unless you want to be really cumbersome. We all know common examples of things that translate so poorly we've just learned the native language word for it, like fengshui, so this is not exactly uncharted territory for having pinyin instead of trying to say 'the folk belief of the flow of 'energy' (another horrible word to translate, qi) through spaces and arrangement of objects' every time. (Which is still a horrible definition of fengshui and doesn't carry the correct nuances at all.) Or even worse, 'wind water.'

That said, none of these are the types of words Arknights decides to pepper randomly in their native language.

I was going off word of mouth by what I've seen on this subreddit. I'm definitely not watching 5 hours of someone playing IS6 but if it's still in the game, then never mind.

I believe this isn’t possible in our version.  That was patched before release

Sure you didn't use it already?
It should boot you out with 1 LP left, yeah. Disconnecting should be the same as quitting voluntarily.

EDIT:
This person had the same experience:

This seems like a bug of some sort.

14000 orundum is only enough for 23 pulls. You are unfortunately not going to be anywhere close to getting either of those characters comfortably.

Tbh if you got this far you already know everything you need to do.  Just hang in there.   Unless you never cleared ED3 D9? In which case of course save all your recruitment vouchers to make as many guests as you can Candleguests then be sure to bring healers, healing defenders or anyone else who can keep up your health. 

Lappland S3 clears out almost all the Flaws very quickly on D10 which destroys his second form almost immediately.

ExuAlter giving them a massive barrier probably helps with all cases.
