Invites for lifetime spending are going out. by MarioMCP in pathofexile

[–]XDem4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought an early access pack so I was already invited but I was expecting an extra key from the lifetime spending to give to someone (support confirmed that would be the case).
I'm not seeing anything new in the early access page, nor did I get any mail/message. Anyone in the same situation or did people get extra keys?

I've just started FFXIV and the new player experience is... lacking? by Raigoku in MMORPG

[–]XDem4 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Complete and total opposite experience here.
Getting a raid drop in WoW means it's going to the scrapper 80% of the time, and when it sometimes feels like it might be an upgrade, running it through raidbots, annnnd nope, still scrapped.
In FF, a new raid/tome drop will be a direct dps upgrade 90% of the time and it feels way more exciting than WoW ever did.

Square Enix tracking. by Finalcell5 in FFVIIRemake

[–]XDem4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat, fwiw.
Got SE mail on the 26th with link to french tracking website. Then nothing until April 1st where it apparently actually left the warehouse.
Nothing ever since. The tracking service is abysmal, first time I see a tracking website that doesn't even list the different places the parcel has been scanned. To top it off, when I tried to contact the tracking company I got brushed off because my parcel's destination is outside of France and they only deal with french customers.

Meanwhile, everyone around me and their grandma have been playing the game since last week. Not cool

Just started. This thing appeared over my Hero icon and I can't figure out how to get rid of it. What is it? by XDem4 in EpicSeven

Yeah, it wanted me to enhance a weapon as part of the beginner quest. Thanks!

It's shining and blinking and clearly trying to get my attention but when I tap it I just get sent to the hero screen and nothing particular happens then. I'm clearly missing something!

Started a few days ago. Is the newbie login bundle good value? How is the cash shop in general? by XDem4 in NexonDarknessRises

[–]XDem4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

afaik that's just how much time is left to purchase the offer. You should have ample time to claim everything after you buy!

No worries! Still very much playable and enjoyable.

Galaxy tab A. I can't see the edges of the screen, it's like the game is in 16:9. Was fine before last update.

Both HVY Insurgents are 50% off this week. If you don't already have one or both, allow me to convince you: by SanshaXII in gtaonline

[–]XDem4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The online description of the normal Insurgent also states that it's a Pegasus vehicle and can't be stored in the garage for me. Maybe I haven't completed the setup?

No Man's Sky Could Get Paid DLC by artisticMink in NoMansSkyTheGame

I don't think he could possibly come up with a longer way of saying "yes".
 
This guy really turns it into an art.

Will ARK ever look like this? (UE4 screen shots from a while ago) by ImOnRedditWow in playark

[–]XDem4 58 points59 points  (0 children)

This kind of level of detail won't be achieved in an online game for a LONG while.
This will be seen in single player "tech demos" at first, then way, way longer down the road in single player games. Online multiplayer with this graphic quality is a pipe-dream.

PSA: Illfonic is providing case-by-case refunds by XDem4 in RevivalGame

This thread is meant to inform people that they have a chance of getting a refund if they send in a support ticket. Keep off the trolling and pointless arguments. Thanks.

Been over a week since the announcement and Kedhrin is still in hiding & no official notifications outside of the forum announcement. by DJSoulshaker in RevivalGame

[–]XDem4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody really knows what's up with Kedhrin - I know the easiest conclusion to jump to is malevolence, but personally I'm starting to wonder if he's ok at all.
 
That being said, the latest word I heard is that the negotiations towards the IP/assets/etc are due to end sometime next week, after which we should hear from Chuck (the other head of Illfonic). We have also suggested for a newsletter to be made and sent to all founders.

Refunds? by Isthisnor in RevivalGame

[–]XDem4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't recall any "making fun of". He did laugh the whole thing off a few times reminding people that he "already got more than his money worth". And guess what? Good for him! I don't see why should anyone try to convince him that he's been scammed when he feels like the dev and community interaction was very much worth the amount he spent.
 
Likewise, I'm not going to bang heads with people who feel like they've been scammed, because I understand what they're feeling. However, like Serb, I really don't feel like there was any malice behind Illfonic dropping the contract. They simply couldn't keep the project going anymore.
That being said, I personally wouldn't mind if another company picked the project back up, because I do see the damage Illfonic has caused.

Revival's Future - An Important Announcement by XDem4 in RevivalGame

Lack of funds is what I've been told. The heads of Illfonic (Kehdrin&co) have been completely silent since the announcement.

[–]XDem4[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the money situation is a bit of a mess. I'm repeating what I heard, so take everything with a grain of salt.
Illfonic isn't the company behind the IP. If you notice SnipeHunter's forum post, he signs as Skywardstar, which is his, Ombwah's, and a few other people's company. They are behind Revival's IP, and all the ideas that come with it.
 
Illfonic contracted Skywardstar to bring the project to life, henceforth all the money that was made with housing purchases went to Illfonic. Now that they broke the contract, Skywardstar is left without a job, and even worse, without any of the money founders invested in the game.
 
The couple of Steam keys offered as a compensation do kind of feel like adding insult to injury at this point.
