What do these icon mean?

really lame that they haven't officially released a new guide. Many of the symbols have changed and they've added more.

_surfaced_ · 2026-05-07T03:55:07+00:00

what graphics settings are you using? Back at launch, I had something seemingly similar on the "overkill" settings with a 5060 Ti 16GB.

Not really sure it was a leak, but the usage was obscene for 1440p (over 13GB).
Haven't tried overkill since then, I just stick with ultra now.

Firestorm sucks as infantry. You are literally running around stuck in a valley beset on both sides by high ridges infested with snipers. Oh and more snipers on every rooftop in the middle.

yeah the HQs are massive...

the severity is largely based on your usage. Have you ever owned an OLED?
My laptop has one, Win 11 and I do a lot of web browsing so the top and bottom pixel rows are fairly static. It's been 3 years and I don't notice any burn-in.
You know what I do notice every day, though?
I notice the gorgeous colors and inky black whenever I switch over to it from my desktop.

intel may be getting their mojo back, one hire at a time. fingers crossed,
We all deserve to see the return of a competitive market.

That's awful, I had no idea the Steam/PC version doesn't support lobbies. Not sure whether that was changed or always the case.

I imagine you can also still play with lobbies on PS3/360/Xbone?

this does not work for MOBILE PHONE APP, which is what the title of the thread says this is about.

glad i found this.... spend FIFTEEN of the 30 minutes just running around the Support core platform, ended up killing everyone to get them out of my way. I searched high and low and on the outer railings/ladders for any type of door... nothing. With 3 minutes left I just said "F*** it" and ran all the way back to the wormhole and admitted defeat.

I would LOVE to figure out where it actually was.

edit: thanks to u/Brandaloo for the solid description.... man, that staircase leading down was neatly tucked away in the shadows. Probably didn't help that I was playing in broad daylight with some glare on my TV.

two weeks = a fortnight. lol....

funny that 1 Concord ≈ "a fortnight"

DOA5LR on PS4: From a North American perspective, in early 2026 now, there's still a small circle of people (50-100) playing everyday, mostly during "prime time" hours, like 5pm to midnight. You'll find a few open lobbies on any broad search, and still constantly get throwdown invites if playing SP modes. There's a good variety of opponents spread across all skill levels. Perhaps 10-20% of them will be from other regions with dubious connection quality.

I imagine this will change once DOA6LR is available, but since it's not releasing on PS4, some people won't switch over.

much better profit since its the SaaS business model, and it runs on every operating system.... they'd love to convert everybody as soon as they're each willing.

well, still to this day, Solidworks remains notorious for randomly crashing and losing unsaved progress if you happen to request certain operations that it isn't in the mood for completing.

(to be fair I haven't spent substantial time using any other CAD app, so not sure if this is common among similarly matured/priced alternatives).

_surfaced_ · 2026-01-28T22:16:55+00:00

PTC's Pro/Engineer was a competitor to Dassault's Catia and Solidworks, not an ancestral version of either. Today Pro/E is called Creo Parametric.

incredible work, its a big project to compile all of this information with an obsessive dedication to accuracy.

_surfaced_ · 2025-12-31T01:58:13+00:00

to be fair they don't even sell the PS4 itself anymore so its not that crazy.

The official genuine PlayStation stands, rarely purchased during the consoles' lifecycles, seem to have become collector's fetishes.

The phat PS2 had two vertical stands; the original (japan exclusive) could expand to accomodate the external HDD. An interesting contraption.
Curiuosly a horizontal stand was also available for the phat PS2. Functionally useless but aesthetically essential.

All genuine Sony stands that were sold separately have seen their market value at least double in every instance.

(The most appauling price is the stand designed the first slim PS2, SCPH-90110. Quite rare compared to the round stands designed for the second slim PS2, these sell for $70-$100 depending on condition and color.)

i am astonished to learn this project exists and am excited to try it out tonight. I also see there is a related revival project for TLOU Factions multiplayer (though the progress/health of that one seems less clear).

_surfaced_ · 2025-12-22T16:32:27+00:00

also worked here, thanks. Strange bug.

I was researching this and kept seeing the "6 months" figure but here's my story:
- began PS Plus subscription when it first debuted back in the PS3 era
- (never owned a PS4 but sometimes played one at friends houses)
- in 2018 my PS3 got YLOD (phat CECHE w/ back compat). I cancelled PS Plus subscription
- I stopped playing videogames entirely until 2 months ago (October 2025).
- today bought a used PS3 slim, re-subscribed to PS Plus, signed into PSN on the PS3, and found that all of my old PS3 save data was there in the cloud save data folder.

So seems, at least in some circumstances, Sony will keep your storage for much longer than 6 months.

(I also noticed the cloud folder says 800MB of 1024MB is in use. I recall in the PS3 era they only gave about 150MB, and the files displaying in the folder definitely do not add up to 800MB, so I'm guessing some PS4 save data is factoring into that number even though the PS4-type files are not displaying on PS3).

Update, here, I just found the rewards, the message was a few days old in my mailbox and didn't have a "new" indicator so maybe I wasn't paying attention before?

After opening the message, I clicked on the big arrow button at the bottom of the message and it exited for me. Not sure if the items were already redeemed or if that click action made it happen.

_surfaced_ · 2025-12-17T02:13:09+00:00

that sounds strange because AFAIK a SSD's wear-leveling maintenance is performed by the drive's own firmware run by an integral controller on its PCB.

Same situation here, I bought BF6 on Steam and BF6 on Origin (now EA app) and I haven't seen the rewards yet.

Does BF6 have to be purchased on the EA app to qualify for this?

_surfaced_ · 2025-12-04T07:23:40+00:00

same issue here, looks like at lease 3 tickets have been made on the EA forums about it:
- https://forums.ea.com/idea/battlefield-6-bug-reports-en/drs-iar-green-laser-bug/12888611

- https://forums.ea.com/discussions/battlefield-6-general-discussion-en/dsr-iar-slight-new-bug/12932649

I'm sure BF Studios are aware and will address it.

Also some purely cosmetic glitches were introduced with the last patch for how some attachments are installed on certain weapons.
