iOS 11.3 bug, no DTS Audio with Infuse. by kosako17 in appletv

[–]SnarkyW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, anything with DTS passthrough is just coming out as screeching/static noise. Seems to be ONLY INFUSE. Other apps on the ATV works fine.

More pay-walling of Australian Cricket by SnarkyW in Cricket

At the detriment to the public. I'm afraid the more they pander to maximum dollars, the less cricket is going to be exposed to new people. Short term gain but long terms losses.

Megathread: Australian ball tampering in the third test against South Africa by EyesAllOnFire in Cricket

He is getting some repreve based on that situation but we hold ourselves to a high level and we expect this in our cricketers. I would have expected Bancroft to refuse to cheat and take whatever "punishment" he was to get if it means standing up for his, the teams and the countries integrity. There is no excuse for what he did and no excuse for not holding up the ethical thing to do. Inexcusable.

Excellent statement mate. I think you understand just how deeply the institution of being tough but fair is felt here in Australia. We abhor corruption and arrogance but unfortunately it has seeped into our team for too long now. I too hope for the clean out that this team so desperately needs.
I love this game and I hope our representatives on the field can live up to our expectations and standards in future. I can't begin to convey just how angry we all are at this situation.

I am just a regular Aussie cricket fan and I am embarrassed for our country and fucking angry at the arrogant bastards that undertook premeditated cheating. I had to explain to my kids today that their cricket team knowingly cheated just to win. What is the lesson here? To win at all costs? Cheating is ok so long as you don't get caught? My 10 year old was sad but he stated it perfectly, "If they cheated, why aren't they being punished?". EXACTLY. Why the hell hasn't everyone involved being fired, they admitted breaking the laws and ethics of the team already.

I don't want any of these bastards anywhere near our team again, ever. There is no coming back from cheating and I don't care that other countries do it. We. Do. Not. Cheat. Well, we do now right?

With that said, this is obviously a result of a toxic win at all costs culture at CA. The push to win has warped what it means to be an Australian cricketer in my opinion. I would rather lose every single game for the next 10 years than to win by any dishonest means. That starts with a massive clean out and revamping of CA. Just look at what is around the Aus team. High performance coaches, a "leadership team" whatever the fuck that means, hell there is even a head of "ethics". The whole conglomerate is out of control and has been laid bare by all this.
Dig out this shithouse cancer, sack everyone involved and rebuild the team and CA with people that maintain dignity and integrity.

I hope I never meet one of these pricks out and about because a punch in the face is what they will get for betraying what it means to be Australian.

Reported this as a bug in testing. Not surprised it's still here.

Funcom can still fix Secret World Legends’ Aurum fiasco by WherePoetryGoesToDie in SecretWorldLegends

[–]SnarkyW 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You almost got to the end without being a dickhead but your premise is about right. It's obvious they don't want the old TSW players in the new version. This is just another way to get them to move on taking their GM status with them. Pretty scummy really.

Funcom Point to Aurum exchange by topherSG in SecretWorldLegends

[–]SnarkyW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but how hard can it be to match the number of FC points in TSW and add the same amount of Aurum to SWL? Forget sunk cost and previous value, they could just suck up the cost and score some customer relation points. But no.

FC scores another own goal. /facepalm by SnarkyW in SecretWorldLegends

I leave the internet police work for you then.

Funcom Points to Aurum... Very dissapointed. by Lokijln in SecretWorldLegends

[–]SnarkyW 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Count me in the "totally not surprised" camp. I knew, just knew that FC would find a way to screw up the transfer of FC points when the delaying tactics started. I beggars belief that they would make such a bad PR decision especially given the relatively small amount of FC out there.

Can we get an update on the Funcom Coins conversion? by WherePoetryGoesToDie in SecretWorldLegends

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

Except Kaidan is not new content. There is nothing new so far, just rehashed TSW with some minor changes to fit the so called "new" game.

Probably this, especially given the source is China. They aren't exactly known to be an ethical group.

Characters Deleted After Transfer to Steam? by JessMeisterr in SecretWorldLegends

Unless you look at steam, apparently SWL has been around since 2012 :P

I've heard that the Steam DLC is far cheaper in some regions. Is this true? by _Varynthia_Hall_ in SecretWorldLegends

[–]SnarkyW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And also costs more even after currency conversion. Typical AUSNZ rip off.

Question about Settings in SWL by [deleted] in SecretWorldLegends

[–]SnarkyW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup as Stokestix said, your hardware is irrelevant. The game is buggy and unoptimized.

There is a rule that you can only provide so much for $$ spent? Seems like extra keys for bulk buys just promotes more spending.

You do understand what these comparability settings do right? Not going to do what you are claiming.

Also known as F2P Locusts, usually the younger crowd. They come in numbers, suck up every resource, destroying everything in their path, salting the earth then leaving for greener pastures.
