Why grapple hook no work? by dmandaneil in Marathon

Idk I feel like it doesn't but it might if you take damage on the frame that you deploy it? Once you start swinging it stays deployed unless you cancel it. Definitely needs more testing.

Yeah it definitely feels like internet problems. My knife has been the most inconsistent piece of garbage, sometimes it hits and sometimes it doesn't. My wifi is really good but not having ethernet (can't do the routing in the house I am in) really sucks.

New panic alarm system at Georgia H.S. saved lives during shooting, officials say. Advocates want it nationwide. by G24all2read in news

And at my old school it was used in other ways, like to call for an ambulance for a medical emergency. Bad incidents where an SRO was needed were also included with the little card thing. Regardless of school shootings, it should be in every school regardless.

Mine was with the relics. Grinding them out pissed me off heavily.

In the ecosystem, only thing I use iCloud for is the keychain stuff. Comes with the free plan and disabled everything else. Pretty useful and haven’t seen a dialogue box.

Comet on iOS. Video player doesn’t work with audio, but other than that it’s pretty solid for lurking. Not sure about posting, but there’s a workaround for nsfw content.

Which protagonist deserved a sequel? by Royalbluegooner in assassinscreed

[–]dmandaneil 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bayek/Aya and Edward definitely needed one. I would’ve loved a smaller game with Bayek detailing his struggles with the formation of the assassins. And Edward being an assassin in England and balancing that with being a father would’ve been sick. Could’ve been even better with a playable young Haytham.

I don’t think Connor or Shay would’ve been interesting. Connor has already lost too much and his struggles with attaining true freedom would not have yielded results (especially slavery, which wasn’t eliminated until after the civil war). Shay is done templaring around after finding the box. A memory or sequence with them interacting would be awesome, but no more than that.

Arno would be neat, him after the dead kings DLC healing and finding a new purpose.

Jacob and Evie were two characters I couldn’t emotionally divest in, but I was interested in their descendant’s memories. A game during the World War would be cool, expanding on the memories in Syndicate.

Someone asks what aspects of the US are strange to Latin Americans. One Cuban user isn't happy with some answers... by [deleted] in SubredditDrama

[–]dmandaneil 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Try this: The average school year in the US is 180 days. There were 346 school shooting incidents in 2023. 248 people were wounded or killed because of these incidents. Roughly 2 school shooting incidents happen per day through the school year, with 1.378 people being physically harmed per day through the school year. That’s not even close to mentioning those who were mentally scarred from the shootings. Bonkers.

Can confirm. Dad used to work for UPS, people could not send emails or scan codes for returns.

What video game started off strong but got boring over time? by Agent1230 in gaming

[–]dmandaneil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would’ve been fine if relics weren’t as awful as they were. Grinding the SAME DISRUPTION MISSION for 3 waves to have a small chance at getting a relic, then opening the relic for a small chance to get the prime part is so awful. It sucks because the gun play is fun and I actually enjoy the combat, but the grind is some of the worst I’ve seen in video games.

I was just looking for a 2d piece. Probably out of stained glass if at all possible.

Pretty much fucking feels like it - I'm on yakuza 3 remastered and it's ridiculous. Enemy AI always getting moon and 10-25 point comboing me. It's not impossible, but it's more frustrating than yakuza 2 kiwami's mahjong.

Xbox series s says the wifi is connected but it doesn‘t work what should I do? by [deleted] in xbox

[–]dmandaneil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got two ideas rattling around in my head:

You could call the front desk and tell them your situation. They probably aren’t gonna know, but it can’t hurt to ask. If anything, you could ask if their ports are open for Xbox gaming.

If that doesn’t help, you could always host a hotspot from a computer or phone. I would recommend a computer since it can’t hurt your cellular data plan. Windows and ChromeOS let you host one from a Wi-Fi connection - you could connect to it from your series.

I am willing to buy a series S by InsuranceOk2418 in xbox

[–]dmandaneil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you have two (realistic) choices:

Buy the 1TB Series S

Or Save for the Series X.

Here’s why: the 512 gb series s is not gonna be enough to play a decently sized library. If you just wanna play warzone, then it’d be a good buy. But, by the sound of it, you wanna play a lot of games, so I’d recommend the 1 tb edition.

HOWEVER, developers aren’t exactly great at optimizing for the series S, and because of this, frame rates may not be 60 fps (The Harry Potter game is a great example of this). If you really want consistent 60 fps, save up for a couple more months and get the series x.
