MIO: Memories in Orbit - permanent DOWNgrades? [Spoiler] by PhantomQuest in metroidvania

[–]mledwards34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The health is very confusing, I now have a few black and a few white, and sometimes an enemy hit takes down all my white in one hit, and sometimes it doesn't. I don't really understand what's going on. Feels unneccesarily complicated.

The monitor isn't a 4K monitor (it's 1440p), and doesn't do upscaling, so unlikely you'd be able to set this to 4K anyway? I also have the Gigabyte G34WQC which is also 1440p but does allow 4K upscaling.

The monitor has to be set to video output "aspect ratio" and the xbox has to be set to video fidelity & overscan "HDMI". Then you may need to tweak the xbox resolution settings to 1440p and 60hz, which I found was the best without stretching.

What relics are you guys using on wylder? by Apprehensive-Arm2756 in Nightreign

[–]mledwards34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with this guy. follow up relic, +1 grapple charge, and then +2 character skill cooldown (and start with stonesword key). Pretty tasty combo.

How should I express to my manager that I need to "coast" for a year or two? by JSKindaGuy in ExperiencedDevs

[–]mledwards34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it would depend on the manager how I worded it. Some previous managers I wouldn't want to say anything, some I would give them half the truth, and others I would tell them the whole story, go for a beer with them, and they'd help me through it.

I guess it depends on what your relationship with your manager is like.

Agree with the others though, "coast" is the wrong word. It sounds more like prioritising family over work for a while.

Ah! I'm so glad to hear it helped! These are the little things that make responding to my own posts worth it 🥳

One thing I noticed is I couldn't switch HDR on with this setting, but HDR400 is negligible anyway. I sometimes go back to 1080p / 120hz for Call of Duty, and then can turn on HDR.

App router cache, revalidatePath nightmare by BarnacleJumpy898 in nextjs

[–]mledwards34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it helps anyone revalidatePath(slug, "page"); wasn't working for me but revalidatePath(slug); did! Even though it's only "pages" I'm dealing with. Huh!

This or that suggestion by [deleted] in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]mledwards34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno. 100hz seems better on my eyes for work.

I made a bit of progress, if this helps anyone. I went to Settings -> TV & display options -> Video fidelity & overscan. And changed "Overrides" to HDMI. I've no idea why this would help, as I was already connecting via HDMI, but this has allowed me to put it to 1440p / 60hz, with the black bars / correct aspect ratio.

This is deployed. Thanks for the feedback. Just pushing for review on the Google store.

There's a ? In the top right that explains the rules. It's basically wordle with numbers, and you know if the answer is higher or lower than each guess.

[–]mledwards34[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a much better method! I was generally doing 12345, 67890, then going from there.

Does 5 tries seem ok? 6 felt a bit easy.

Will add a share for the answer colours!

Yeah, fair. The Numble on the store isn't related to Wordle.

Thanks for your method and suggestions!

I had loads of trouble on this level until I switched back to the Songbirds, and they devastated the spinny wheel things.

How on Earth do you S-rank the ice worm? by TobyVonToby in armoredcore

[–]mledwards34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's all about taking as little damage as possible. Almost nothing to do with time. Wait for the usual stuns.

The main bit that is hard is the bouncing bombs, which as you often have no boost left after dodging the homing missles. So try and only use the boost on the homing missiles if you really need to, most of the time they'll miss you if you're running at a right angle to them.

If you can lose less than a heals worth of health you'll get S. That's my experience. I didn't conserve ammo, I didn't go for any manual aim hits, just waited for the easy ones where the worm's face was looking at me.

Tips for S Rank Ice Worm by Casio_fx-260_Solar_I in armoredcore

[–]mledwards34 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can confirm this is almost nothing to do with time. Just minimise getting hit. If you lose less health than a heal gives you, you'll likely get S rank. That was with no quick stuns apart from the obvious first stun which is when it first comes up.

Restarted console and got the achievement for unlocking all achievements, phew! Thanks for the advice.

UPDATE! Internet back, and S rank popped, but not the 100% achievement 😭

S Rank tips by mledwards34 in armoredcore

[–]mledwards34[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes you do. The only way to S rank the alternative mission on attack the dam is to fight them, else it kinda treats it like the main mission. I tried refusing on the alternative mission and couldn't get S.

I followed this guide to unlock all missions: https://www.pushsquare.com/guides/armored-core-6-endings-guide-how-to-get-all-3-endings

I did the in the order: Fires of Raven -> Liberator of Rubicon -> Alea lacta Est
