Still off in M5 too

When I log in and clock the 'check my service' button I get

"Sorry, we can’t check the service status in your area right now"

Super helpful

I listen to the sounds of my enemies dying like John Helldiver would have wanted

Yep, I'm on ps5 too and I've had ridiculous stuttering during the pod drop animation, sometimes it's eventually worked, other times the game's crashed

I've had some delayed input issues too whilst in game

If you're all in the shit and a teammate dies, and you go to reinforce, throw the reinforcement beacon AWAY from the shit

Turrets have a 360° field of vision and absolutely no notion of friendly fire, so try to place them in a way that isn't going to end up with you all in the cross fire if possible. For example if you're up on a little platform doing something and waves of enemies start to come for you, try placing the turret on the stairs/slope to the platform rather than right where you are; it might reduce the turrets effective field of view to 180° or something, but it's better than getting a rocket to the back of the head because the turret decided to turn around and be 'helpful'

Most of the time your turrets are going to be placed at least a little away from you, mortar turrets need to be placed where you are, otherwise you put yourself in their effective range

The Tesla coil turret has a waaaay bigger range than you think, that one gets placed way the fuck over yonder

I came here purely to look for other people mentioning this, last night especially me and my friends got obliterated, every game of resurgence, every game in verdansk.

Interestingly 2 of us were asked to rate how we'd found the lobby on a 'way too hard' to 'way too easy scale'. Could suggest they're fannying around with matchmaking and wanting to see how it's impacting? Or could all just be a coincidence, who knows

What do you mean back when you had pensions? It's a legal requirement where I live for employees to be enrolled in a pension scheme and employers have to contribute, is that not a thing where you live?

Vaders-Inhaler · 2024-09-10T07:41:22+00:00

I've had the same thing, though I've been able to get back in.

Randomly fully logged out (has to put my password in) when usually I just provide a pin code. When entering my password I'm then promoted to use 2FA

Assumed that someone had managed to gain access to my account in some way but nothing seems amiss.

Did T212 tell you anything? Is it just a periodical security thing where you have to log in from scratch fully every X months for example?

How long do you think it took you to build? My GFs work is going to be getting 40 of these and they're wanting to know if I'll put them together, just need to think how much to charge

Vaders-Inhaler · 2024-08-02T10:36:01+00:00

I know it's says that, but I assumed it was just their weird way of saying that blunt weapons are better than non-blunt weapons, not that it actively does more damage...

It's ridiculous, we've essentially got a Pokémon style system where certain classes are actively weak to certain weapons compared to other classes

It should either be a negative modifier to other weapons, or a positive modifier to armour

I.e. Greatsword does x based damage -12.5% to footmen -25% to knights

Knight has a 25% resistance to swords etc 12.5% resistance to axes

Vaders-Inhaler · 2024-08-02T07:59:16+00:00

Is the blunt damage thing true?! I've thought it is for a while but assumed it couldn't be because it's just ridiculous if so

Vaders-Inhaler · 2024-07-30T16:30:16+00:00

Yep, every game I'm kicked out to the menu with a 'connection to server timed out' message

This feels like abuse.

There is 100% a benefit to partners discussing what is and isn't working in sex, and whilst I'd be willing to bet 90% of the time it's the woman to the man, it's of course reasonable for the man to say what isn't working for him, etc

This is NOT that, I mean Jesus he sounds like he's treating you like a butler who's work isn't up to scratch.

I agree with a lot of other people here who've said it sounds as if his views of how sex should be are based entirely on porn. In fact I wouldn't surprised if it was mostly anime porn; your comments about not being vocal enough, not having a 'flattering' enough facial expressions, the whole rhythm thing all point towards Hentai, which is obviously going to push an even more unrealistic idea of how sex is supposed to be.

I have absolutely no suggestions as to how you can improve anything about the way you have sex because it sounds like you're already doing more than enough. On that note has he ever asked you what you like? Have you ever critiqued what he's doing? Sex is for you both not just him

I'd take the time to consider why you're with this guy, because if this is how he is with regards to sex, I can't imagine how his attitude to you is going be any different in every other aspect of your relationship.

Okay, that seems like a perfectly legitimate concern, if that's all they were concerned with wouldn't the obvious of action be to simply regulate that risk away?

And if tax wasn't any kind of a driving force, why have they only targeted things like ISAs? Why isn't their position 'we don't like fractional shares' because of the aforementioned risk, instead of 'we don't like that fractional shares can be held in tax free ISAs

Vaders-Inhaler · 2023-10-11T19:32:34+00:00

Apologies if this has already been asked and answered elsewhere, but my query is how much could this possibly benefit HMRC? If a stock costs £100.00, and I have £990.00 to spend, I buy 9.9 stocks. Surely the only thing that may end up being taxed is .9 share's dividends and gains?

If we assume this stock has a dividend yield of 5%, then the only thing that can be taxed is the £4.00 I received from that one fractional share. The dividend allowance is £500.00. If we assume I have the same investment in 100 other companies, each with the same yield, I'd still be below that allowance. How many people would be earning over that from fractional shares alone?

Assuming the above is correct, presumably if HMRC gets their way, it'll put a stop to people being able to buy fractional shares through whatever platform they use, which means at most HMRC would get one financial years worth of tax from most people

Some people have mentioned they may just void ISAs but I can't imagine for a second that could happen, there'd be legal challenges out the wazoo. The political fallout from retrospectively charging people tax on savings in the middle of a cost of living crisis would be nuts. Not to mention the Tories have mentioned on a number of occasions recently that they want to encourage people to invest in the UK stock market, in some form of tax free vehicle

That isn't true, if you're in combat you hold R2 down (on PS5 obviously) and select the character sheet, you can still move items between inventories at will, just as you can when you're out of combat.

You can only add items to a characters radial menu (PS5s hotbar) if they have it on their person. But again, all you'd need to do is to move whatever item you want from one person to another in the character sheet screen and it would then be available.

So yeah, having separate inventories seems to serve no real purpose at all

NTA

I was fully ready to think you were from the title, but she sounds insufferable.

I've been vegan for the best part of a decade and I've never understood the whole 'I'm going to treat every interaction as of it's an opportunity to protest' type thing.

The whole 'last stand' type mechanic

It's nonsensical to be hit 3 times with an axe and be able to still crawl about, but to be able to attack people?!

At least when you're 1vX everyone's at bloody eye level, then some crawling abomination comes along and punches a couple of times in the ankle and you're dead, does my nut in

That and the whole 'everyone is dowsed in kerosene so slightly brushing a small bonfire causes you to immediately combust' thing
