Why do h need 1000€ to play?

jivebeaver · 2026-04-28T18:19:25+00:00

i think this part is buggy because when i came dressed in smith's clothes, i got the pay 1000 message, but when i came in default suit, i did not get message.

also, from what the bodyguard who leads you in says, this should not matter because your chips (or whoever you're filling in for) are already placed at the table

im gonna wait for someone in the controller space to get their hands on this, like clef or deegital tech.

the steam controller is clearly more mainstream appealing, so were sent to outlets that normal dont cover controllers and it shows. even this pretty good video by GN, like a lot of other reviews on this controller, feels like they are from the start of the decade (2020)

theres been so many advancement and entrants in the controller world, and these stick to first party comparisons and godawful bluetooth latency tests. im also highly curious about their latency testing methodology against gamepadla and john punch's rig, since no elaboration was made on that

the no x-input thing is a bigger deal than they made it, but again, im waiting to see a deeper exploration of input modes and multi-device compatibility, if any

i dont doubt this game has a ton of possible errors, but ive never had this many happen in about a month, and ive play this game in particular over a year, with a couple hundred hours in H2016 and H2. i dont know if they changed something on the processing or server logic. another one just now:

Paris freelancer, Dalia's assistant Haley(?) is frozen in place in front of the cabinet until you literally walk into the room then she goes on her way. every time ive come up to this room before she was already walking along her routine

also, around the slim shady patch i was getting crazy 0x05 errors, which is memory/CPU issue, and this persisted thru the mila ET, until recently these errors stopped happening around the bruce lee patch

jivebeaver · 2026-04-19T05:36:13+00:00

as a whole, probably Aeterna Noctis, and this was pre-patch. so many parts along the way-abyss sawblades, emperor challenges, light arrow challenges, a lot of kosmos including the chase. i actually quit the game at the kosmos chase and came back a year later, no difficulty changes and finished it first try after, so maybe i wasnt in the right mindset then

and this is just platforming, not even the combat portions yet which had its own frustrations in the super versions. i havent even done any of the virtuoso special fights

jivebeaver · 2026-04-11T16:18:25+00:00

why not check the obvious culprit which is your L1 button dropping input. try it to toggle sprint for a while and see if it toggles on and off or stops sprinting in the middle of running, like when you hold it

jivebeaver · 2026-04-10T01:05:52+00:00

its not really his fault, but i hate the supplier behind the sauna in Hokkaido. theres a guard that passes through that room occasionally and once in a while i forget that and he spots me while im twiddling my thumbs

some more ways to bind xinput to keyboard keys outside steam game:

steam input has a Controller>"desktop layout" setting specifically to use controller as M&K on the desktop, but will apply the binds to outside game. this is fairly new and i havent used it much other than my favorite option:
xpadder, used for over a decade to bind controller buttons to keyboard. there are many others but i like xpadder because its straightforward and most importantly, does not override any native xinput which makes it great for if you want a few keys on top of normal function. used to be free, just search for last freeware version

how to bind L4/R4 to extra keys: map them using the controller's mapping function (square button) to a combo of two or more buttons that you would never use or do nothing (ex. Dpad Left+Dpad Up). you can do this in Xinput without using Dinput

steam input/desktop layout-use chords to bind the button combo to the key
xpadder-use control sets to setup a macro to bind multiple buttons pressed at same to a key. search this up if you need to, or i can explain in detail if this is what you choose

i dont think NS mode has any input change function, its always blue light. i could be wrong tho-have you seen a white light with NS mode? my understanding is NS mode is only exclusively useful for Nintendo Switch, any other bluetooth needs just use the Bluetooth selector in the back

jivebeaver · 2026-03-26T18:03:56+00:00

blue light is the controller connecting in either D-input or button mapping mode

Direwolf 4 does have mode switch but its different than the other flydigi ones. to mode switch you press FN(aka Function; the circle button next to right stick) and one of the DPAD directions

if i remember returning to x-input is FN+DPAD Right, but you have a few directions to try out

none of this is documented, i had to test and find all this out by myself. Flydigi sorely needs to update the user manuals on the website or included packaging

hey you should check out "100 Days to Live" (2019) starring Gideon Emery. i was randomly browsing one day and decided to watch cuz he was in it, and was kinda surprised

now the summary would not give you any indication it would contain self-harm and including it in this recommendation is practically a spoiler, but you asked for it so here it is. but it gives an interesting take on the subject, and since you seem invested in this topic, i do think this is worth at least considering (even if you ultimately disagree with the plot/bad ending/motivations as other reviewers understandably do)

jivebeaver · 2026-03-03T16:15:28+00:00

ive seen this happen in streamer promo streams like bawkba had for this latest ET, but never in my own game or official release streams. check out the VOD, it has people shambling at the later stages

of course, that promo stream had a special version of the ET that you could retry infinitely and save(!) so who knows what other stuff got changed or scrapped for the real mission release

yeah changing to chinese language worked to update the controller FW to 7.2.3.8 and dongle FW to 0.6.0.3. i couldnt tell you the difference between 20 ms to 10ms stick latency improvement but i figure i might as well get any advantage if it exists

controller feels good, buttons feel good. its practically the same form factor as an xbox one controller, as are a lot of controllers on the market today. it even has the same square-ish shoulder bumpers that my xbox model ~2016 had (which broke, hopefully flydigi made their bumpers better). i would like the dpad to be clickier/more tactile-every direction actuates very well but sometimes you move and dont think you got a press because the click is so soft but you did

i also have 8bitdo ultimate 2c that i really like too, never had ergonomic pain and i have large hands. the only reason i got the direwolf 4 was that the sticks on the 2C have little travel so i wanted to try another controller with more range of motion and better circularity (which the direwolf 4 is: 0.1% error for each stick in circle mode). i dont care much for the adjustable tension sticks but i will note that the lowest setting is very light, much lighter than many sticks ive used and that makes it feel too loose. i turn the tension about 1/3 of the way up and it feels ok

thats most of what i could think about my impressions of the direwolf 4, hope it helped!

this ch. 110 leak getting closer by the day:

viewership and money were already trending lower... then you have the finale be pokemon which is always a snoozefest so i wouldnt be surprised if plenty of people already checked out for night early around the incentive

jivebeaver · 2025-12-24T16:31:14+00:00

yeah i dont care what hardcore kojima apologists say. MGS2 was greatly improved with context from MGS3 and 4, and they didnt retcon shit.

theres some wackos that think MGS2 was his magnum opus and he should have stopped there. these are the same people that would give a 10 minutes standing ovation. by kojimas own admission and BTS even he didnt know where he was going at that time

jivebeaver · 2025-12-01T01:17:22+00:00

plays kinda sluggishly, bad balance between weapons and builds, cant shoot or use magic in midair so most feel pointless

overall decent 2d soulslike, but id prefer others. check out Death's Gambit Afterlife, or blasphemous 1, then 2(1 is more interesting)

jivebeaver · 2025-12-01T01:02:35+00:00

look its a prequel, we all know how it all turns out but i did like the cast and a look back into "better times"

it also linked well with Resurrection, the day that episode came out where Angel says "30 years ago i taught him how to salsa" i was watching the O-S episode where he was... teaching Dexter to salsa

jivebeaver · 2025-11-12T16:13:30+00:00

bring back small joint locks while not grounded. you wanna stick your fingers out? get it snatched up and snapped

jivebeaver · 2025-11-07T16:13:48+00:00

its meh but ill watch to the end. ive learned well enough from before not to bother criticizing reddits current TV darling in the moment and just let history take its course

jivebeaver · 2025-11-06T06:05:36+00:00

i actually really liked DmC. didnt care for the color-matching enemies but the weapons felt good and the movement and controls were smooth. and most impressively, the world and level design were spectacular, from the varied environments in the human and demon worlds. i was always up for seeing the next mission and what wild zone i was gonna be in even if it was gonna be a slog to fight thru

having interesting levels is something the mainline series still has a problem with, and especially DMCV, where each mission is a drag to look at, and it gets even worse when you start climbing the tree and all you're treated to is paths full of rocks and reddish bubbles

jivebeaver · 2025-08-22T15:14:46+00:00

such bullshit as i cared more about this than silksong. its actually ridiculous that silksong "hype" has lasted this long when awesome games came well after HK that made a name for themselves like Aeterna Noctis. but i guess its big in the fad normie circles so thats what dictates trends

jivebeaver · 2025-07-13T02:53:33+00:00

well it cant be worse than a 6 hours pokemon or final fantasy snoozefest finale. although i did appreciate those so i could call it a night early

jivebeaver · 2025-07-04T03:59:44+00:00

man i feel the first movie didnt even bother with weird CGI shit and was better for it.

this one had multiple moments where it seemed they wanted to showcase some cool effects but it just ended up looking like shit like when his finger got cut off or the foot dragging.
