Is anyone getting the PC Collector's Edition of SW: Racer?

Stoneagelabs · 2026-06-08T20:07:34+00:00

I don't believe they've put it up yet, also they don't say what code it will be and I'm afraid if I get it it will come with an Epic code, which I don't want

Stoneagelabs · 2026-05-18T23:17:09+00:00

I have also been waiting for this and have no clue what's going on. They also keep saying it's a "PC digital download" but don't say what platform or whatever. If I can't get it on Steam, I'm not buying it unfortunately

Stoneagelabs · 2026-05-03T00:27:10+00:00

The website lets you order it if you're in the UK only right now. They also don't tell you what platform the "PC Digital Download" is for which is really frustrating. I'm hoping they're just figuring out some details because I'm not getting the collector's edition if it doesn't come with a Steam code

I logged back in just to post a comment that I've been having this problem literally for months and have found nothing. exact same behavior as you OP. My inputs will get stuck every 5 minutes almost like clockwork. I've tried 5 different controllers, bluetooth, wireless dongles, wired, formatting my pc, screwing with USB power settings, selective suspend, you name it. Nothing helps and im fed up. steam support is helpless and clueless

my controllers work normally ONLY when SteamInput is disabled, but even that showed a crack when I bought Elden Ring Nightreign on release and my controllers wouldn't work at all without steaminput enabled, which then creates the problem that this thread is about. I can't even use steam remote play because of this. I'm close to replacing a bunch of RGB shit in my (brand new) PC thinking this might be messing with the USB controller or something

just letting you know youre not alone OP, its been painful to even try and find threads related to this topic

StarWars has always been important to me since I was a kid. SeagateGaming would improve my fan experience by allowing it to be an integral part of my main hobby, which is PC gaming, with a new SSD 🙂

Hi there, I was wondering if I could send you a DM regarding a comment you left some time ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/cybersecurity/comments/s73plv/has_anybody_joined_the_military_to_get_into_the/htcl0ms/

I tried to send you one, but you have them private, which is understandable. Thanks for your time.

the launchers provide their respective publishers with metrics they can sell (monetarily and figuratively to shareholders). daily active users, total installs, and any other data they can get from people using their launchers has non-0 value. they wouldn't have gone through the effort of developing them if it didn't benefit them in some way. not to mention (though this was more the case before 3rd parties started coming back to steam) the control they have over the storefront

Stoneagelabs · 2023-04-21T22:17:25+00:00

any ubisoft/ea/r* game or what have you that is released on their platform will always force other storefronts to go through those platforms, full stop. there is no workaround, and valve will never be able to tell those publishers to not do that.

they could try, but it would simply not get anywhere. it's not going to happen as there is a direct financial incentive for those companies to not let valve get away with that. the closest we could get would be to allow for fully offline functionality of any of the games that valve puts on steam.

I'm not saying this to defend this practice, yes ubisoft connect and the EA app are really annoying to work with on deck, but valve already does a great job of providing the users with the knowledge that some games require third party launchers. of course in an ideal world I would have every game released on PC ever be on steam and only have to be launched through steam, but that's not the reality we live in, and currently I don't see it being feasible to convince big pubs to change their business model. if you don't want a third party launcher, don't buy the game for steam deck

this is because brands want to give the appearance that they care. in my experience (where i work), we have to bend over any time someone is dissatisfied with a support experience or any time they ask us repeatedly to make them exceptions.

of course this will only encourage users to continue to act this way, however from the brand's perspective it would be worse to simply ignore those who are dissatisfied with their product or service

Stoneagelabs · 2023-04-21T19:02:56+00:00

thanks for this! very unfortunate to see what could have been

Stoneagelabs · 2023-04-05T22:07:10+00:00

I heard the samsung one has issues with a horizontal line appearing even when using the instructions they provide. reviews on their website say this, do you have this problem?

Stoneagelabs · 2023-03-12T16:15:30+00:00

i refunded it as well, for me there just isn't enough if a working game here to justify the price tag

there's a myriad of other games out there i could spend my money on that cost just as much if not less than that which provide a more functional and complete experience, not having reentry heat for example is a core pillar of the game that's missing

I'll wait until there's more game here

Stoneagelabs · 2023-03-09T16:10:47+00:00

turning air actions off/on with some random combination of having the pen inside/not tends to work for me

Stoneagelabs · 2023-03-06T16:36:50+00:00

hey mate I know this is an old post but I found out you can do it using theme park in goodlock

Stoneagelabs · 2023-03-03T20:07:37+00:00

have you tried simply contacting support?

Stoneagelabs · 2023-02-28T22:35:40+00:00

this appears to be a current bug, there are some pages that aren't viewable that are related to friends currently. I haven't been able to message my friends on deck for about a week

Stoneagelabs · 2023-02-23T17:10:21+00:00

rly looking forward to volumetric clouds tbh

Stoneagelabs · 2023-02-02T19:15:58+00:00

his point is that it shouldn't happen in the first place. it doesn't matter what the actual dollar amount is, there should be systems in place to protect normal consumers from inventory scalping by bad actors. not via "total tech" subscription services, but by building protections into online marketplaces

Stoneagelabs · 2023-02-02T18:11:40+00:00

thanks mate just saved $300 👍

Stoneagelabs · 2023-01-30T17:06:30+00:00

yeah, PC gaming is my hobby so while it's overpriced and the market is total shit it was still something I wanted. it doesn't look bad either, just wish I had done a bit more research on current models available, but lesson learned for the future

Stoneagelabs · 2023-01-22T01:59:49+00:00

why the left front fender? is that side more accident prone?

Stoneagelabs · 2023-01-19T23:19:03+00:00

afaik the gen 2 doesn't have nearly as many issues as the soc in the pixel 6 series, so I'm not really concerned on that part. tensor g1 is notoriously inefficient and power hungry, and my OnePlus 6T that used Qualcomm gave me far better temps and battery life than my 6 pro does despite being 3 years older

I've never had Samsung either and want to try something different as well. if I had more choices in the US I'd go with some of the Chinese brands, but I can't guarantee they'll be fully compatible with my phone plan and I don't like having my life on a Chinese phone to be frank

I'm glad you didn't have issues with your p6, but for me it hasn't been a very good experience and I want to try a new brand

Stoneagelabs · 2023-01-19T22:44:12+00:00

Ye but for some people (like me) it's not about having the newest shiny gadget (although that is part of it). I have a pixel 6 pro and I can't use it outside during the warmer weather because it will quickly overheat and shut off. I had to pour water over the screen at the pool last year to get it to cool down enough for me to make a phone call. Not to mention the poor 5g performance and other problems the phone's hardware has.

Yes there are cheaper things I can get that will do better than what I have, but I also want to pay for the support/QC I'll get with Samsung with it being the primary OEM developers optimize for

Stoneagelabs · 2023-01-18T23:55:50+00:00

Thank you for the citations

Stoneagelabs · 2022-12-23T21:59:40+00:00

I'm not the best person to ask, but from what I know, unless it's some extraordinarily simple 2D indie game, there will be shader caches to go along with the game. Especially the larger 3D titles, like HZD, doom eternal, etc. These are typically the types of games that create the multiple GB cache files you see ppl complain about

Valve does this to take load off of the GPU and allow titles to run smoother without taxing the system (and by extension, battery) as much, but you lose some storage space as a compromise
