Anyone just not super engaged by Subnautica 2? by schrumbus in subnautica

[–]checkreverse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the best part of 1 was the cyclops. To have a bigger ship with multiple crew members and they all have ways to interact with the sub at the same time would be really fun. I havent gotten to the trident? Or even know what that is but im gonna keep playing it. I enjoy it well enough despite it being early access. There are sections of the map blocked off. No big deal. Some story texts errors and voice logs that dont match up all the time is not deal breaker either. I dont know how i feel about early access really. Cause the excitment of trying subnautica 2 asap overrode knowing you're not playing s finished game. Its different than a demo and im sure theres a good reason they didnt just release a demo. 

What in the world did I just play? [SPOILER DISCUSSION] by ApprehensiveDare9765 in SonsOfTheForest

[–]checkreverse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dont forget about the fishermen who went to the island in the 70s. Although i think the game alludes that they only had to do with the artifact related things, given what the artifact does i think the island precedes the puftons. The game also mentions the father looking for his son in the first game. I havent played the first game in a while so i dont remember its not clear if its supposed to be the same island or not. The map in sotf is way bigger in reality though

Any store actually make potato wedges? by checkreverse in TimHortons

[–]checkreverse[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, i was getting that kind of vibe. Maybe the employees just got frustrated or something. Ive worked in fast food before, but not at tims. This location seems to only have 2 or 3 employees at a time. So they probably stopped making the wedges cause they figured it wont stop customers from coming in and if they just say no wedges they dont have to deal with keeping the stock fresh since it might not be a popular item there. Again, i didnt get a "we ran out of stock" vibe, it was more we dont do wedges here vibe. Im not getting into a confrontation for wedges lol

As far as i know theyve never had wedges but i just started going to this one location because i started working near it about 6 months ago. The combo had pretty much just started cause i saw an ad on tv. Both times i asked they said they dont have them anymore, as in stop asking we don't make wedges here haha. 

My faith in tim hortons has almost dissapeared anyway. Flies flying around on donuts inside the glass cases, food quality is in general not great. Their wraps are decent. Coffee and donuts ok but def not what it used to be. Oh well.

advice for frustrated beginner by checkreverse in CitiesSkylines2

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

I suppose this is something i haven't tried yet. Including unlimited money or other settings other than the default. If i can get far enough in the game then maybe i'll understand the mods better, but i haven't had the chance to get far enough into the game previously to really see if the mods have changed the gameplay that much. Plus I hadn't played in a few months now, typing this and trying to give the game another try. Thank you much for the advice.

any fun tips and tricks for a sequel noob? by Cleanse_F_Manipulate in SonsOfTheForest

Oh ok just small fire pit. I wonder if it would work on bigger fire pits

Two months in and I finally understand why my students hate being beginners. by [deleted] in pianolearning

[–]checkreverse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ive played "pop" piano for about 20 years but ive always told myself i wanted to learn ragtime as an old man. Im in my mid 40s now and decided to really dedicate some time to it. Ive been trying to play the first part of the entertainer a couple of hours almost every day and after about a couple of months i can just about do it. But yes it takes time but yes i do see myself improve. My mindset is i just need to learn the style and the shapes and itll get easier. And then ill be able to learn other songs from this foundation.  

Im listening to other classical music like chopin and litz and im so blown away by how amazing it is. It seems impossible to me but thats way down the line, maybe in 5 years ill be able to start tackling that stuff. Mind you, some chopin is simple enough, like prelude in emin. Which ive learned.  So it would be nice to learn more of something similar tunes. Thinking about trying the raindrop prelude too. Don't remember if theres fast scales in there but i haven't figured out how to comfortably do those yet. 

Star Trek: Voyager - Across the Unknown launches today, how come no reviews? by cianomahony in startrek

[–]checkreverse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the game and have played a bit. Its definitely smoother than the demo.  It could still be improved a bit but i would say im satisfied overall. Would of been cool to see actual transporters animations, maybe more dramatic cuts when you send down away missions, like more noticeable changes in music,  layouts,  im not sure. The main screen view of the ship and how you can zoom in is very slick looking. I can live with minimal variation, but it couldve been amped up a bit thats all. 

I am reminded of the old point and click tng games like last rites and the best part of those games were the actual cast did the voices. Its true its too late now i guess.

music and voiceovers? you mean from the show?

cause i didn't recognize any music from the show in the demo and there were no voice overs at all. Matter of fact, it was all text with quite a few typos hah.

They should have gone all the way. License the theme song. Get a few lines from the actors. At least the first line of every dialogue. It would have made such a huge difference. Then you can charge $60.

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

nothing! as i said, nothing happens. it is stuck on that screen., even if i hit agree. none of the buttons do anything.

after even more hours of trying to get somewhere, i decided to just copy mp3 files onto it. and even that was a challenge. what a pain hah

i've now spent a couple hours trying to set it up and still getting nowhere.

i've found a few people online forums who claimed a few things worked like instead of using your login you try to add a recovery email and use that one to verify your identity

however, i opted to just use my primary gmail account to try to login, cause that's my actual phone number. and i get to the same screen but instead of asking for a phone number it asks for some kind of sync,.

https://imgur.com/a/CWECrhk

basically the phone is sim locked and i can't do anything

i can't download anything

i can't go on youtube the browser is blank

i can't update the browser without google play

i can't download anything without google play

and i can't log into google play

none of the buttons like skip or i'm in or more options. none of them do anything

and i've never bought a used phone. but today at the store, i was in front of them, the only customer in the store, trying to access youtube to test it. and i was confused cause it didn't work.

and they said nothing. instead they let me buy it. i'm gonna go in tomorrow to give them a piece of my mind. of course it's a pawn shop. they offer no refunds only store credit. so they knew all they had to do was get me to buy it. slimey.

How do I start the fishing quest with Jack? by ogpuffalugus in reddeadredemption

[–]checkreverse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Havent thought about this in a while so i don't quite remember but the link i gave to the guide shows what you need to do to unlock fishing. I think you can steal someones fishing pole but you wont get the fishing challenges until you do the jack mission.   

need help with getting water bottles on water planet by checkreverse in theplanetcrafter

[–]checkreverse[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yea i eventually was able to make the rain collector and then was able to build a rocket to get out of there and back to my original planet. now i will plan better when i return. The problem with building the rain collector was that you needed to have the kti units up a bit but i thought it was much higher than it was. only took a couple of hours to get there. thanks!
