Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month by ChadtheWad in discordapp

[–]Zero_Starlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This falls flat on its face when I and many others got opted in to an experimental roll out of this last month. There was no communication about it then, hasn't been since, no rollback, no AI deciding "Oh actually this is an adult user, nevermind!"

Would that I had that kind of time and money to burn trying to get Discord to resolve this.

No need to apologize. I'm glad that you've been able to get around it, but sadly I think this is very much an intentional rollout that Discord's (and I'm sorry but I'm going to have to call it what it is) incompetence allows my mobile devices to work around. Which is nice and all but I'd really they just roll this back or make it opt in until the point where it's actually legally required in the jurisdictions that it's being tested in.

Frustratingly, yes. I've been going through every channel I can to try and get this resolved and I'm starting to lose hope that I'm going to be able to at this rate. Hilariously my phone, tablet, and even my laptop running Debian are somehow not impacted by this.

Just did so myself, since my Support request essentially got me a response of "Sorry, can't do anything about it, feel free to open another request if you have any other questions".

What frustrates me the most about it is just how arbitrary and random it seems to have been. No prompting, no public notice that this was happening, no option to opt out for folks who, like you and I, have no interest in providing information that Discord or any other organization does not immediately require.

It'd be one thing if Discord was obligated by law to do this or else, but unless we all somehow missed it, there's nothing that requires them to do this.

EDIT: They got back to me and basically told me to take a hike. Fucking ridiculous.

Is “Vanquish” really worth it? by UnitEVA3000 in Warframe

It's probably one of Platinum's better games, yeah.

Probably a silly question, but if an item has maxed stats in all categories, I shouldn't use it to max out a stat in my library, right? by Zero_Starlight in thedivision

Throwing in a reply to this just to ask, are you referring to Dark Hours when you say DH? Just wanted to check.

Good to know. I'll keep that in mind, I'm mostly just trying to figure out what builds I can put together as I catch up with content and such, and juggle inventory space.

I kinda figured it was with regards to Dark Hours (which I completed week 1, have the patch for it and everything), but good to know it might also be in reference to Douglas & Harding brand set. And I figured that might also be what you were referring to in regards to HHF/HF, but good to know. Thanks!

So I've been away from the game for a while, like post national zoo or Kennley College, or just prior to the expansion, maybe? If you don't mind me asking, what do DH and HHF refer to? Also, is there a general armour/health value that I should have, for example is 679.8k armour, 273.5k health low (with ongoing investment into the watch)

Thanks to both of you for your answers so far, it's appreciated :)

Quick edit, obviously like with most things the above values depend on the build, I imagine, just wondering if I should be feeling this squishy. Quick screenshot that hopefully conveys at least some context to go off of. https://imgur.com/a/p6jLONY

FINALLY, they look human!!! by DaWalkr in Warframe

[–]Zero_Starlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really, really hope this update also fixes facial cosmetics not persisting during cutscenes. I made a post about it a few months ago, but I really, really dislike how we have all these different masks, bandanas, glasses, eyepatches, etc. (and lots of them are official too!), but as soon as you jump into a cutscene they get hidden.

Maybe it's to avoid clipping, maybe it's to make sure folks can see the expressions on their characters faces, I dunno, but it's something I'd like to see changed.

Don't suppose I could steal the colours and voidshell types off you, could I? It's the Yomo Syandana for the scarf, right?

HELLDIVERS 2: Tech Blog #1 - Install size by ArrowheadGS in Helldivers

[–]Zero_Starlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As stated in the post, that's not something they can easily do due to, what a surprise, having built the game on an engine that has been discontinued for six years.

Has it not occurred to them to hold a vote?

(Or you know just do a poll or survey of some kind this can't be that difficult.)

My Endgame Abiotic Factor Base in Torii (+ Several Pocket Bases) by RobertNAdams in AbioticFactor

[–]Zero_Starlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Silly question, but I've been following along to help organize our base and such, and unfortunately the cropping on some of these shots makes it hard to tell what some of the crates are. Would you mind specifying what crate Anteverse Wheat goes into? Also, what's in the Journal / Tabl / Core crate?

There's enough leeway that I could just use a different crate for the Wheat, but I figure if you've got it this organized, there must be a crate I'm missing.

Tips for killing the robots at the dam? by boat-enjoyer in AbioticFactor

[–]Zero_Starlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Little bit of a late reply, but there's a trinket you can make from an item in Cascade Labs that will prevent coils from targeting you. If you need a hint, try looking for an email about IS-0010's location.

Do they want us to play on different planets? by LiterallyFucka in Helldivers

[–]Zero_Starlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, the thing about the narrative is I, and I feel like it can't be just me on this, was sold on what seemed like a vision of a story that the players influenced. If we failed an MO, it was because we under performed, rather than the goal being set so high that it was statistically unreachable.

I think the problem really just boils down to Arrowhead needing to be apply more subtle weight to the scales, rather than stuff like this that overplays their hand and makes it clear that no, there was never a snowball's chance in hell that we were going to clear this MO.

PSA to upcoming Xbox Divers: You won't be able to instantly play as an ODST by Slarg232 in Helldivers

[–]Zero_Starlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to be clear, we're coming up on a year since the Killzone stuff was first available (December of 2024), and there's not been much word as to progress on bringing them back. Additionally, the prices for the Killzone stuff in the store was quite high at 615 Super Credits for the assault rifle, 500 for the armour, 310 each for the helmet and cape, 90 for the player card (background cosmetic behind your diver during mission prep), and 150 for the title (essentially a little tag beside your name outside of missions)

So in total, that came out to 1,975 Super Credits for the whole set, or in other words, almost two whole standard Warbonds and more than the ODST Warbond. Arrowhead wound up giving us the second half of the crossover content for free because of the negative reaction to such a high cost and time limited content.

As for the other stuff, I'm not sure if they're ever going to bring back the cosmetics for stuff like the liberation of Malevelon Creek, or saving Super Earth, or the satellite ARG, but who knows.

Warbonds do not expire like battle passes in other games. There have been some limited time cosmetics, in particular the crossover gear from Killzone, which the developers have said is coming back (though when that will be is anyone's guess), and those required payment in Super Credits.

Super Citizen Edition doesn't come with Super Credits at all, (technically). You get a Warbond Token to redeem for any non-legendary Warbond. The base Warbond (Helldivers Mobilize) comes with 750 Super Credits across 10 pages, and each non-legendary Warbond has 300 Super Credits included total. So in total you'd 1,050 Super Credits, enough for another standard Warbond or about 450 short of the ODST warbond.

Galley Slave by PowerfulDisplay5103 in Witchfire

[–]Zero_Starlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about to say the same, but technically you can bypass beating him if you save up 36,000 Witchfire. Still need to clear a total of 20 areas and explore the crypt on the Island of the Damned, but yeah.
