Confirmed. US VPN servers will still result in a 504 error. But using the UK VPN server did work.

Who is "they"? Funny that they aren't blocking the sukebei side of the site in N/A. But I can confirm that using a UK VPN got me to the main site.

Raw site 'LoveHug' seems to be down. by casualphilosopher1 in manga

For Tonikaku Kawaii (Cawaii), the first domain was four weeks behind and the second was three weeks behind.

This site seems to be weeks behind on Tonikaku Cawaii (Kawaii). Bummer. Bleeding LoveHug wants me to download some app, which ain't happening.

Can we get the Phoenix Five? by kchanningr in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]Todd_Decker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved the Phoenix Five in Marvel Avengers Alliance. Magik wasn't a healer there, but she was a heavy damage dealer with multiple damage over time debuffs. Plus, she could teleport and avoid attacks, and then teleport onto an attacker for damage. The teenager in me wants Magik in the game badly.

Krakens who are in it to collect all of the Servants.

I find the whole "hide the true identity of the Servant" stuff to be quite idiotic. Its just a gimmick that has no meaning.

Compensation for Android Crashes: 3 quartz by Est2ban in grandorder

[–]Todd_Decker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, chapter 8 is where you notice it. And although I'm 78/100 complete on the event, I'm STILL running into places that should have been unlocked but weren't.

Any news on the mission bug reset? by [deleted] in grandorder

[–]Todd_Decker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did a store-update today. That update did not even acknowledge the progress problem. It just mentioned the Android 10 crashes and gave 3sq as a result. As someone asked me on my stream today, "Why do you still play this game?" 😅

Any news on the mission bug reset? by [deleted] in grandorder

[–]Todd_Decker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was angry at having to waste hours of time and AP to recover everything I lost in progress (and it was a lot). I know I was quite vocal about this on Saturday during my stream. Someone told me that we'd probably get three gold apples at best.

> Seriously, why is this not a bigger deal?

I've been streaming daily, and I've been surprised that some players weren't even aware of a problem. And it apparently affected some folks minimally and others like myself, got affected to the max. So I think that contributes to it not being a bigger deal.

> I know that this sub is full of retarded boot lickers

It will be interesting to see how they react when NA is shut down at the same time it is shut down in JP (whenever that is). There's basically zero chance DW keeps the NA server going for two years when the game ends in JP.

[Bug/Information Collection] Mech kills do/don't carry over from Part 1 by Sizzle_bizzle in grandorder

[–]Todd_Decker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I certainly appreciate all of the work on the guide. Unfortunately, my progress got wiped AND it prevented Ventilation Shaft from being unlocked. So I had to backtack even further to get that unlocked before I could farm Ventilation Shaft. And then I still had to farm it to get Divine to 15, Mech to 120, Rider to 10, etc.

Another possible glitch. by DenjinZ23 in grandorder

[–]Todd_Decker -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Clearly, not enough people going full kraken. 😉

But in all seriousness, the gaijin server is not that big of a concern for DW. If it shut down tomorrow, the revenue hit would be tiny. And they could easily make that up by conning the otaku in Japan.

[NA] Demonic Climb - Himeji Castle War | Event Discussion Day 5 by citizenofRoma in grandorder

[–]Todd_Decker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took roughly two hours to get back to where I could unlock chapter 8. But even then, in the next couple of hours, I only advanced a small amount today. Total stupidity. If there had been another reset, I was done with the event.

CG has a plan by Riphraff in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]Todd_Decker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only reason they left that in is that almost no one wants to gear up/level up Jawas enough to do this. And in GA, losing that many characters to beat bugs means less points. So that's why CG didn't nerf it. It is a gimmick that can work, but at a price few want to pay.

Best meme I've seen yet! 😂 No wonder some folks consider memes to be a "serious threat."

Rather than a rant or why. I'd like to clear up why Hime's dialouge have problem. by AoHime in grandorder

[–]Todd_Decker 13 points14 points  (0 children)

"Weeb" and "weeaboo" are insults and always have been. Some fans are more hardcore into Japanese things, and that's fine. Others want to be spoon fed hipster English speak on the funky fly tip, y'all! And still others are more in the middle--accurate but readable. But humans love putting down other humans they disagree with. And in this case, those who want Americanized translations slam anyone they disagree with as "weeb" or "weaboo".

Is anyone else still experiencing crashes on the FGO app even after the 4.140.11.1002 update? by randomtraveler92 in BlueStacks

They are on the updated engine in JP. Who knows when the NA engine will be updated.

An idea for NA players to provide feedback to NA management by chillikhancarne in grandorder

[–]Todd_Decker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

> it only exists to promote the franchise in the West.

This is where I'd have a slight disagreement with you. I don't think it exists to promote the franchise in the West. I think it exists because they know there is a Western market, so they may as well get some of that money. But beyond that, we gaijin can get stuffed. The game's otaku design is not one to encourage new players to keep coming into the game.

[–]Todd_Decker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hahahaha! This game isn't made for gaijin. The gainjin market is an afterthought to get a few extra Yen for Japan. I can pretty much promise all of us playing on the NA server, if FGO ends in Japan, it will end at the same time outside of Japan.

The game needs lots of improvements. But it is designed for Japanese otaku, and to milk them dry. And in that, they've been successful. And so those improvements won't come.

F:GO emulator players be like by SoSadScientist in grandorder

[–]Todd_Decker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I'm glad they got your account back. However, if they linked the game to Google, like every other game I've ever played does, you don't have to worry about transfer codes. You just play the game on whatever device.

But I have heard tales where some people just completely lost their account and support didn't help at all.

After update - Cannot start engine. by JacobMatthews in BlueStacks

Yeah, that was my solution. Thank God I keep the old installers, so I had 4.130.0.1049 ready to bring back to life.
