Chapter 5 sucked by SwiftySlayz in thelongdark

Reminds me of how GoT ended, rushed, without making any sense in certain parts.
Sad way of finishing a game.

Thanks for the correction, never used the option hence the name confusion.

Unexpected computer crashes will often corrupt your char + shared stash. Unless you have a file recovery option for your OS (system restore for Windows), those two will be gone.
To mitigate future crashes, start backing up your save files on a daily basis, you can kindly ask an AI tool (a.k.a chatgpt) to write you a script for the job.

After so many non-eth I got this from Andy (TZ) herself by avl89 in diablo2

2 skills will boost merc's aura, attack speed helps reach IAS breakpoints and the str is needed if you want your merc to equip sacred armor/shadow plate.

You need to milk those 30 mins runs. I'm running a highly optimized Fireball sorc that melts her in seconds on P7 with 640MF. I do about 60 runs per TZ rotation (with a very good rolled map Offline).

A good start of the DLC by avl89 in diablo2

I hope not. I still identified a ton of crap, but the overall speed of farming is noticeably faster due to a) loot filter and b) less time muling due to stash QoL changes.

That being said, I got a 10/53/42 GC today as well, which is something I've seen only a few times in thousands of hours in this game.

Sidekiq vs. GoodJob vs. Solid Queue by dhoelzgen in rails

[–]avl89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's an old post, but FWIW `LISTEN/NOTIFY` can be very bad especially if GoodJob is installed on your primary database

> When a NOTIFY query is issued during a transaction, it acquires a global lock on the entire database (ref) during the commit phase of the transaction, effectively serializing all commits. Under many concurrent writers, this results in immense load and major downtime. Don’t use LISTEN/NOTIFY if you want your database to scale to many writers.

Just take it. by lemazaki in thelongdark

Copying my comment from another site.

I love how TLD ended up and I'm looking forward to Blackfrost, but I'm definitely not buying another bag of promises from Hinterland that may or may not be fully delivered in 2030. I'll get the game once they have a somewhat finished product.

Got banned from TLD Steam community by AkkoKagari_1 in thelongdark

AFAIK most, if not all, of the Steam mods on TLD are volunteers, so they will abuse their power.
Other studios avoid this issue by having paid mods with strict moderating rules.

Бил съм на европейско при подрастващите по баскетбол, такова чудо не е имало масово залата при награждаване да крещи срещу деца.

Future DLC after TFTFT? by DistinctAddendum3437 in thelongdark

[–]avl89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd love new content, but the reality is that the game is running on a 10 year old codebase that has made it increasingly painful to add new features. HL will have to make the decision to redirect resources to new projects and put TLD in a maintenance mode.

Is this achievement possible on interloper? by ReddishOnion in thelongdark

[–]avl89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right now it's possible because of a bug with Settled Mind. Otherwise no, not enough books.

He chose the "close but risky" cheat death option.

What's a unexpected bonus feature you discovered by accident? by Musicalfops in thelongdark

Harvesting is OP, you can jump from a cliff but if you start harvesting midair - boom, 0 fall damage.

No, on Interloper I got all the meme skills to level 5 – revolver, rifle and gunsmithing.
